Makomen Omonkhomion: Dy11, did U called BHC and if yes, what did dey say?

@makomem yes I did around 10am. And after I provided my passport number to the visa customer rep he said my application has been fully processed and was to be sent to the VFS centre in lagos today. So who knows how long that takes?

how long does it take the vfs centre in lagos to receive visa applications after its been dispatched from abuja

steph7: I got my info from vfs

do you know if it is possible to forfeit the delivery and just pick it up directly from the VFS centre after the receipt of the sms notification?

g2db2do: Pls can give a number I cud call them on

You should call the british high commission customercare on 08036591145,080350900179,07034062883. They would give you a direct update rather than VFS who will just ask you to wait for a notification. You should track it online first though.

steph7: Makomen, are you sure put in your reference number correctly ? The courier delivery takes 2-3 days , so if you used courier expect your visa on the 18th day

@steph7..I doubt this,I spoke to a staff of BCIE and he mentioned next day after the alert atleast for lagos and abuja. So where did you get the 2-3days info?

all those who applied 25th,no need to panic. We just need someone with info on the courier delivery and how it works..anyone here with info should pls share

[quote author=Dharkchild]I applied for my visa on the 24th at lekki making it 16 working days. i haven't gotton a text but i just tracked it online and it says my application is ready for collection. i would give them the whole of Thursday to send me my text while i would go pick it up on friday. Would update u guys.


@darkchild you dont need to wait for their sms notification, once the status says ready for collection it means you can pick it up. You should pick it up tomorrow.

Dear House,

I am new here. I would like to know if anyone here has made use of the courier service delivery. I applied on the 26th of July and paid N4500 for delivery due to my crazy work.
