Help! I paid for a US visa interview (F1) on June 28, 2025 and I still cannot proceed to select a date. I paid through online transfer from my GTB account to FirstDirect2 (First Bank) but could not get the confirmation receipt because the payment could not be confirmed on the FirstDirect page.

I have created/sent multiple complaint tickets from my profile on AVITS (https://www.usvisaappt.com/), attached proof of transfer from GTB and the error I get when I try to verify the payment using the reference number (Amentum). By the way, the error is, "the reference number does not exist".

In the first response from AVITS, they confirmed that I paid on the 28th. However, the last response from them was that I should send my First Bank payment confirmation receipt. Anyone with similar experience on how to fix this? How I can get that a payment confirmation from First Bank? I plan to visit a First Bank branch tomorrow.

Kindly respond.

Let me also add that I have an upcoming visa appointment (B1) which I paid for in December 2024, and picked a date in January 2025.
