Hi,

I applied for my SAR ( ILR is due in May 12 ) on 20.01.2012 but apart from their acknowledgement didn't get anything...

Anybody having direct number to enquire?

Thanks

They don't have a public contact number (probably intentionally). When my SAR was overdue I sent them this and it came two days later.

Dear Sir,

On xxx I made a request for all data that the UKBA holds on me. I subsequently received a letter confirming my request, assigning it the reference DPU xxx. The cheque was cashed on xxx, but I have yet to receive the requested data. As it is now more than 40 days since the request was received, the UKBA appears to be in breach of the Data Protection Act 1998. If the requested data is not received within the next seven days I will lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office and consider legal action.

Sincerely,

If they still don't send it, complain to http://www.ico.gov.uk/

Hi Jager

Your letter looks excellent mate honestly. I also wanted to apply for my SAR reports and always thought of writing to them. How ever I just wanted to ask this thing from you that they've asked for an Orignal Utility Bill Under my name if I dont have the Orignal Utility Bill Under my name shall I send them my orignal CC statement will it going to be acceptable for my SAR along with the copy of my full UK driving License.

Also if you kindly share the matter of your letter requesting SAR from them that would be a great help for me. Just like you've shared the matter above for the letter of complain.

Thanking you in anticipation and waiting for your reply.
