This was the same as my application, i received my visa on the 19th sept .I applied at VI, biometrics on the same day as yours. I did however have to call several times for escalation.

I last called on Sept 18th early morning and was told it had not been decided and it will be escalated. On the 19th Sept i received the email saying my application has been decided, a few hours later another email from tls saying passport is available. I was granted the visa.

I applied all the pointers I learned from this thread. Last time I used an agent who messed me up. This time I filled out the application myself.

Application details and documents:

employment letter
contracts with clients for my side businesses (I have 2)
very detailed cover letter explaining previous refusal, deposits, marital info, side job, travel itinerary and break down of cost for the trip
bank statements and fixed deposit certificate (my wife and i)
wifes passport data page (from a country that has uk visa waiver)
letters from siblings to show ties to nigeria
pics from my wedding
home property document
copies of household bills/receipt - water, internet, electricity


thanks to all the contributors.
