Experience at Solihall

Excellent apart from the wait

appointment time ; 10.30 AM
Allowed entry : Around 10
The processing started late because of some team meeting.
My turn came around 11.30. In 10-15 mins first round was done
Called for biometric at around 12.30
was asked to wait to confirm if everything is fine ( payment etc ) so that i can leave for lunch and come back in 2 hrs to collect document
however, after 40 min wait a lady came to tell that there is some issue with biometric and i will have to do the biometric again.
after 30 mins called again however was asked to wait again .
40 mins wait and was told no need to redo biometric and wait for 10 -15 mins.

By around 3 PM had all documents in my hand.

Overall no complaints as the staff was nice and I got what I went for

Happy to take any questions.

Thanks again
