Premium Service Centre Booking Problems!

[EpkIMQs]

Suggestions for booking appointment:

1)Clean your macbook or computer, delete unwanted files, application software etc and this will make your computer faster,

2) Clean all your browsers, delete password, cookies, catches everything

3) I used Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. This will make your MacBook faster then WiFi.
I got 200mbps download speed Internet but with WiFi I can only get 100 to 130mbps, But with this adapter I was able to get 232mbps download speed.

4) I made 3 different account using different mail ID

5) opened all 3 account on different browsers

6) select different premium center in different browsers

7) added auto refresh extensions for all 3 browsers, keep open all browsers same time. Just make it smaller screen.

my computer was on from last 7 days

I booked 2 times and got cancelled, selected date for so many times but doesn’t allow me to make payment. Finally I managed to book date yesterday. I hope this will help to other Users.

Thanks so much for the tips! What time during the day did you find slots were available?

Hi everyone

I have been trying the same for the last days and not a single time I find any date anywhere in U.K.

I rang UKBA twice and they said there is no problem and interestingly one of their advisors told me to search through simple internet explorer and not by any other source

I am been trying through mobile phone but no luck as yet

Only last night I found two date slots in Liverpool but the booking page got freezed and wasn't able to book

Have been trying day and night but only found one slot yesterday over my laptop and nothing over the phone

I don't know if there is any truth in this phone or laptop argument

as it was said by many, you patience and keep trying whole day. best to do auto refresh on google chrome and you will find scattered appointment in day time. i did that and found many over last week and managed to book and reschedule my and my wife's appointment. So only solution is keep trying whole day.

Hi all. Thanks for all the tips on this forum. I didn't know what a nightmare this would be!

So actually, I was trying to book an appointment for last week of August and after trying for a few days I daw some. I quickly booked the appointment and after booking, in Liverpool (I'm in London) i received a confirmation for September 15th - which I would never have booked as 1. THat's too late for my visa and 2. if I had wanted that I would have booked in Croydon near me.

Has this happened to anyone else? Also, now London Victoria is showing up as a premium service center - which is new as of this morning? Or is that just me?

Why did you go for the PSC appointment which would fall outside your visa expiry date

You’ll need to either wait for a cancellation and reschedule your appointment or cancel it and go for the postal route.

That's the thing - I finally saw August 14th and quickly claimed it. But that is not what come through in the confirmation email. And actually, I saw this as a problem for a couple of other people in another forum. So wondering if this is another glitch that has happened before.
