Please what do I need for a 3rd party to pick up my passport from vfs.

It is the same appointment letter I used for biometrics I am suppose to give to the 3rd party? because they requested for an appointment letter.
I already know about the consent letter, a copy of my passport data page and the representative providing his international passport.

Fatliga2025:

This is distressing. Sorry about that. Unless you can show and prove that that document is in fact genuine, you have no chance.
If you do not get any respite in terms of insurmountable evidence from Providus then lawyer up and go back to Providus as unfortunately a 10 year ban is a life ban from UK except when you are applying for a spouse visa [quote author=Nysckits post=133923740]I need urgent advice on what to do at this point.

I am a business owner doing well in Nigeria, but I have never traveled out of the country before.

I submitted my bank statement and other supporting documents to the UK embassy for a visit visa. It seems they contacted my bank (Providus) to verify my statement.

The statement was generated directly from my internet banking platform—it’s a heavy statement with a clear financial track record. Shortly after, my account officer reached out to ask if I had submitted my statement to the embassy, which I confirmed (as seen in the images below).

Despite this, I just received an email from the UK embassy informing me that I submitted a false document and have been banned for 10 years. I am completely in shock because my business account details are 100% accurate, and I have never falsified any document.

Providus Bank never reached out to me for clarification before responding to the UK embassy. My account officer is fully aware of my business, the legitimacy of my transactions, and my financial standing. However, she is extremely slow and does not act promptly.

I have never traveled outside Nigeria before, and I wasn’t even planning to stay long in the UK. My goal was simply to use my passport for the first time and keep my travel history open, knowing that I am financially capable of travelin.

@Jolene, @Davodyguy, and everyone in the house, what can I do to appeal or defend this 10-year ban?

I have already sent a strongly worded email to Providus Bank calling out their unprofessionalism, but I urgently need a solution to this problem. Any advice would be deeply appreciated.

What a great opportunity. Gather your evidence, sue providus bank, get as much you can get from them and find a way to clear the misunderstanding.
