Same situation

In a similar situation as you guys. Still expecting Biometrics Enrolment letter since receiving the Acknowledgement letter on the 1st of November 2012.

Have phoned UKBA severally. The person I spoke with in the first week of Jan told me that she had sent an email to the Biometrics team and that I should expect to receive the letter within 15 working days. It has been 19 working days since then, still no letter!!

Called again 2 days ago and was told that another request has been sent to the Biometrics team. When I asked when to expect the letter, she just said WAIT and you will get it, I told her I'd been waiting since Nov!!

Quite frustrating!

I waited for close to 4 months!!!

Was calling them every couple of days in the last 3 weeks. The letter was dated the last day I called them!!!

They will always tell you to wait, but I will suggest that you call them and tell them you've been waiting and still nothing has come.

Good luck!

You need to hold on when you call them, as it could take up to 15mins before you get to speak to someone.

From my experience, you might occasionally get to speak to someone within 5mins. but that is very rare.

So my advise is: be ready to hold on for long periods when you call the UKBA!
