Hi Kevin,

I used the e-mail that they have on their web-site

http://www.canada.org.uk/visa-info/general/email_e.htm

I stated that I hadn't had a 48hr reply so obviously my last e-mail got lost they were really quick with the response.

I'm going to London on Monday to take in the passports personally as it will be quicker.
Good luck! I hope you hear soon! I'm sure you will

Just to clarify,
When you send an email, you get an automatic response within minutes (maybe hours). If you don't get this, then it's a sign that you've got the wrong email address.

I used [email protected]

I generally got a reply within 48 hours, but I don't think there is any rule that states they have to reply in that time (or at all!).

Be sparing with the emails. Only email if you can't get the information yourself any other way.

Cheers
Chris

I would agree with Chris. I have e-mailed CHC today (for the first time ever) simply to see if there are any clues when PPR might be heading our way.

I got an automated response within minutes and then seven further automated responses over the following hours. Strange but true.

i have never had an automated response. Real responses have been within 24- 72 hours.

Does anyone know if you get a reply if you reply to their reply??

Ah but do they know you replied to their reply? And what happens if they reply to your reply to their reply, eh?

What was that noise? Are they watching me? Should I get dressed now?

About that smile? It's more like a mad grin at this stage

And, yes, we are watching you ... now tell me about your childhood?
