Paying Vac By Credit Card - Problems?
Can anyone help me on this please? I am at the last stage of my application, and I am going on a contributory parents visa. My problem is, I have given my credit card details to DIMIA, but even though I have an ample credit limit and in fact, a small credit balance, my credit card company are refusing it as it is so large. They have given me a phone number for DIMIA to authorize it, but they(DIMIA) won't or can't phone that number. So I am stuck..HELP :scared:

I had to do this - only very slightly risky
