Aoa soz I mid typed the dates
Visa was stamped on passport since 2nd feb 2011
So they had the visa stamped for over 2weeks before they actually asked my wife to pick it up which I think is ridiculous
Also the the question was it from Islamabad or uk visa section answer is from uk visa section

Thanks Ali i will get a e-mail sent out to them and let you no how we get on.
still not heard back anything from the e-mail i sent on Monday and speaking to the solicitor he has also previously e-mailed them with no response and sent a letter in the post.
I spent a good few hours on the phone today trying to get some where but each and every time keep on getting the same response "send an email"
I spoke to city lawyer today who believes we have legal rights to sue but we do not want to go down this line as i am afraid they might delay the case even more.
Dear wait sum more days i hope they will reply you.

Bro Zehn that is the confusing thing as you told your wife submitted passport on 4th of Feb and they stamped the visa on 2nd Feb so how it is possible to stamp visa on back dated? and i also received calling letter from
UK Visa Section

Thanks Heres a Update:
I sent them e-mails in a carpet bombing fashion 20+.
We received a letter from the UK border agency in Pakistan last week specifying that the decision should be reviewed, now made a appointment to submit the passport next week once TB test has been done.
i wanted to ask is there any way in speeding up the time they take to review the decision ? as my uncle has taken time off from work and is in pakistan at present.

Aoa I dnt think there's a way to sped it up but when they take the passport write on a paper that you wish for the passport back by 1or 2weeks as that's what my wife did and we got it only a few days after we told them so inshallah if you do the same you will get yours aswel
Dol ofcourse I will pray for u inshallah Ur desicion will be very soon
