Which agent should we choose?
 
Hiya, me again!
Not too sure who to go with when applying for visa, they are all quoting different prices, can anyone suggest a good company to use? Thanks:thumbup:

All very good. You should pick somone you feel comfortable with, ring them all and have a chat see what your gut feeling is telling you. ;) :)

There are load more out there, main things to keep in mind should be:

Are they registered with MARA?

Do they charge an upfront set fee? (when I say upfront, I mean all written down before you sign a contract)

If the answer is no to either of them questions then don't use them.

Pay very careful attention to this one point !

It can be a very costly mistake if you go "pay as you go"

Welcome to the merry go round :rofl:
