SET(LR) Best Method of Payment

Hello,

I need advice please. What is the best form of making payment if I will send my application by post? I have read some experiences online that they used Barclay Visa Debit and got declined due to Barclay's Anti Fraud even though they informed the bank earlier.

Also in the application form, it said...

Credit card - Visa (including Electron), MasterCard, or American Express (Amex)
Debit card - Delta, Maestro* (including Solo)

So does this mean HO will not accept Debit card that is Delta or Maestro?


Thank you in advance!

No, from 6 April you can apply in person. It costs more though. All details on the new SET(LR) form.

I am applying on the basis of long residence. My only option is to send application by post. Am I right? Even so, there is an additional fee for premium.

So what would be the best payment form? thank you.
