If your application have been received by VAC,you don’t have a problem,some even get their passport without waiting for collection mail,but collection mail should drop within a day.But if it has been transferred to VAC with the glitch they are experiencing now,you still have to wait,for only God knows when,for it to be received by VAC.
It took them 48hrs to change mine to received at VAC

Not actually the case ........ Those coming from Nigeria, have a sense of entitlement..........

- The UK resident, regulates the heater...... The Nigerian visitor, turns heating on 24/7....... grin

- UK resident only eats one meat....... Nigerian visitor takes 4 ........

- UK resident is size 8...... Nigerian resident is size 8 ...... UK residents shoes go begin witness unauthorised access........ grin

- UK resident is a recluse..... Nigerian visitor go bring unauthorised friend's, without seeking consent....... grin Then go chop all the chopables and drink all the drinkables......... grin

Nigerian visitor would always selfishly spend their BTA, whilst been a parasite on UK residents bank account....... grin

ETC ETC ETC ETC ....... grin



The list too plenty joor .........

Both the visiting Nigerian and resident uk are both guilty of one thing or the other.

Please someone should help me with this. Initially, the first 3 lines were green even till 2 days ago but this is what I found this morning, do I have any reason to worry? Biometrics was actually done.

This is what almost everyone has been seeing since Tuesday. It's a glitch from tls

BHF, Red Cross and the bigger charity shops will also give a warranty on electrical goods - usually 6 months. There's no reason to buy new when one is trying to save money! Just buy from reputable places so if it breaks soon after purchase, you have some come back.
We've just cleared out my aunt in law's house to a charity shop - her TVs (all smart TVs) were mostly never used and one still has the clear tape round it! She had a new kitchen fitted at the end of 2019 with brand new appliances and all have gone to a charity shop.


I agree. Reputable stores are the best bet but I still personally prefer new electronics.

Good evening house, I did my biometrics on 8th of October and since then I haven't seen any mail whether refusal or approval. It's almost 2 months now. Although I was refused September this year and I reapplied the following month October. Please what should I do

Wait!!! That's all you can do really.

Cars are understandable because of the cost. It's a personal thing to me. I like to buy new electronics because when you buy fairly used, you might end up paying more to fix it.
