I think they forgot and we crossed 38 working days , that means they will get alert to finish application only before 60 working days.
I don't know about other countries but in india , documents scanning stopped and the respective embassy making decisions, and they are doing fast . I heard people appliying standard visa in august middle and got visa in 10 days... priority in 6 working days..
I don know if I cancel my application, in how many days ill get my passport back? I should contact vfs for that...but have to go in person ...thts my only idea now.....if I got my visa around 18th September and got rejected for simple reason...then I don't have time to reapply also. its the worst scenario I could ever imagine . at that time I wont even have to reapply for cas also. then everything will be flop, if I worried about money.lavey wrote: ↑Sat Sep 02, 2017 7:03 amEven I'm thinking same.Dnt know whom to contact.I'm getting mad day by day.aerobalag wrote: ↑Sat Sep 02, 2017 6:06 ami dont think we will get decisions next week ...those who applied around july not getting decision especially 1st and 2nd week of july.

I dont think so because one of my batch mate got her visa on 21st august, however our course is starting on 18 sept. There is some issue, even HC knows all courses in uk starts from sep.nabeelhussain92 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 02, 2017 9:28 amIs it possible they are issuing visas based on course start date?
What was the course start date for the people who were issued visas last week?

I did some research before and it can take up to 5-10 working days to get your passport back after cancelling. So it is impractical at this point to cancel your applicationaerobalag wrote: ↑Sat Sep 02, 2017 7:11 amI don know if I cancel my application, in how many days ill get my passport back?

I don't think this works. I tried sending them email through a different email address( paid and emailed through a different account earlier) and got the following reply instantly.aerobalag wrote: ↑Sat Sep 02, 2017 11:08 amukvisupport@mailgb.custhelp.com
this is their email address , you don't need to pay , they actually replied my email without paying 5.45 sterling .
you can try . I emailed them 3 times and one time from another email account. They replied .
don't waste your money . ANYWAYS they wont change wt they are going to say
they said..." you case has been REESCALATED urgently on 29/09/2017 ...but I received this mail on 31/09/2017. I forgot to check my another email account. anyways they keep tracking of their escalation.
escalation= they remind ECO officer that application is pending...thts it
they are just call centre and they don't really push you applications to top.. so practically nothing we can do
I don't know about that...but I tried sending email , I got automatic email from them also with reference number included...from both different accountsSam1990 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 02, 2017 5:18 pmI don't think this works.

Well the passports arent in Sheffield, all ours are in chennai. So if they wanted they could've reallocated the processing to chennai by forwarding them the online applications and scanned docs. But obviously they dont really seem to care.aerobalag wrote: ↑Sun Sep 03, 2017 7:00 amhttp://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/educ ... s-and-risk
huge backlog in Sheffield, I don't think they will give us decision soon and people who applied lately in india are lucky, since the applications are decided in their respective embassies
