Hi
i am trying to book a premium service at sheffield and the only dates which comes up is six weeks from the day i check and the only time available is 08 : 10AM with an extra charge of £75. i have been checking it every day and night and never see any other times of the day, does anyone know as to how we can book anytime after 09 : 00 am or 10 : 00am as it never appears there, i wonder how people who book it for these timings manage to do so?
please anyone know about it.
thanks

February and March are known to get booked up quickly with applicants across all visa categories looking to avoid the fee increase at the beginning of April.

Nothing more that we can advise other than to keep checking. If there are none available to book, then the centres are likely already fully booked.

Just out of curiosity, if one books before the fee increase in April but there appointment is actually after the fee increase. Will they then have to pay the difference?

Or will they be charged the fee before the increase, even though the date of appointment is after that, just booked early.

Thanks in advance. I did try to do a search for this but didn't pull any results in regards to it.

I think '' plan for the worst, hope for the best'' is in order.
