Kinzzle:
Is it possible to get an earlier date on TLS after booking??

Yes, it is.
I did that earlier this evening; I originally got a date in September then kept checking and eventually changed it to end of August.

Right, I got 27 August.
For those looking at Ikeja, I think they are releasing appointments now, I saw some paid slots for September, so you could try now.
Thank you kindly to all those who were of help (looking at you here, duchess90, rs217 et al.).

duchess90:
You did nothing wrong, if you read through what others have experienced and shared, the dates are not easily available, you have to keep searching and trying till you get one

Cheers

Thanks, much obliged.

Right, I'm back to ask questions, please bear with me.
Work is over, I'm back to this frustrating TLS thing.

I think I've made an error somewhere, because I dont seem to know where to click to even see the available and/or unavailable dates and so forth.
I dont know where to click to put "UKVI services" in the basket on the right, is this something one must do and where, if so?

Here's a screenshot of my screen, can someone help, thank you!

Tls Victoria Island September 8 and 10 date is open, be fast before it's booked out.

Darn.
Thanks, but I selected Ikeja, so I can't get in there.

Luseyi:
Please what date did you eventually get?
Location of your appointment also

Thank you

I've not gotten a date yet. Still refreshing the TLS site endlessly.

duchess90:
Not quiet clear on this, you want to do a double booking and attend both? Since you are applying with your dependants at the same time, you are all expected to book in the same venue. What happens to the second booking? Not really sure of what you mean though.

Not sure the system will allow you, if your records are in one venue you probably can't attend any other venue to be honest. I know we are all desperate to get a booking and an early one, please try to avoid complicating things

Cheers

Thanks. We'll stick with Ikeja.

Yimi4real:
Go to the email you received that confirms your payment is successful. The one that has “noreply” as the sender. Open the mail and click on the highlighted “return to application” , click on provide biometrics whenever you see it as an option and it will redirect you to your TLS account.

Thank you very much.

Thank you, dduchess.
Can I also ask another question - (I'm going with dependents) is it possible to book an appointment at say, V.I. for myself, then maybe Ikeja for my wife, and then we attend the earlier of them with the children and pay the flexi fee?

Luseyi:
Please how did you do this. I will also be paying for 3 dependents.I had thought of this before but someone said the IHS and Visa fees are paid for together. I also have 4-5 cards of different bank I could use.Kindly shed more light.

Thank you

I'm paying for dependents too., so here's what I found out yesterday while trying to pay - The fees are deducted in two tranches ,and are denominated in dollars.
The IHS fee is deducted first, and it's $603.
I used my Access Bank naira card for that, which has a $1,000 limit, but Access debits you at the black market rate (very painful).

GTB works too, but it has a cap of $500, so you can use that to pay the second tranche of the fee, which was $466 as at yesterday. (they debited me at about 400)
My wife's Zenith bank card did not work.

duchess90:
Hi,
Alot of people are experiencing same, they can't seem to find slots on TLS. Like others have said, keep checking, perharps also check at odd hours.

The rush plus lack of slots could be the reason.

Cheers

Thank you, at last!
One more thing - do you know how I can actually log in to the TLS site with a GWF number or something like that?
I woke up now and tried to refresh, but apparently I can only log into the TLS service selection area if redirected from the Gov.Uk site, and I cannot get that to happen no matter how I retry. There is no actual area for logging in on the TLS site, even though it keeps asking me to do so.

Hi there everyone,
I've been following this thread for a while (very informative indeed), and now it's crunch time, so I've created an account to ask questions.
I just got my CAS, filled in the infernal forms, and now I'm stuck at the TLS appointment booking stage.
I've tried to mouse over some of the dates, nothing seems to work.
Can anyone let me know what I'm doing wrong, biko?
@mimilyrics, could you shed any light, thank you?
