They adviced me in UK office to do online refund request and i did yesterday dated 09/10/2014 but i didnt receive any notification mail by any process or updates.

It takes about 10 working days to process a return of fees in these types of cases. Dont expect too much in the way of acknowledgement or communication in the interim. Usually at best you get an email saying yes or no to the refund and the fee is returned if a yes to the account you paid it from.

Hi, out of curiosity, did you receive your refund? I'm now in the same boat.
