I don't think any of it will come to anything because the HO is obviously just behaving however it wants at this point, but it feels better than doing nothing.
Well done. I was proposing to refer Mike to this forum as well to show of the impact this is having on others. I will ask my wife to send an email as well tonight. Mind sharing the text you used to assist others who may want to write in?

Funnily enough, there's also a question on that issue in Parliament this week https://www.theyworkforyou.com/wrans...9158.h&s=Visas

Complete with the process for requesting a refund.

Satire Piece, and though it focused on one group of applicants, I'm sure most of those waiting feel this way about now with the visa process.

Hmm that question was asked by my MP, Stephanie Peacock... the same woman who seems reluctant to help me further on finding out where our visa is at. Odd.

Yeah it's fast, just don't know why they get there first. What love to know what system they use to decide who gets there's visa first.

One of the purposes of being here is that we can monitor each others progress as once we are over the 100 day mark we are in to the unknown. Non of us know whether our applications will be looked before the 120 day mark as part of the revised service level agreement. Nobody on this thread has had a decision and are discussing ways collectively were to go next. I think momentum will build considerably if nothing is done by working day 120.
