Hi ALL,
I have submitted my OCI on 21st may 2014 in person at London branch considering it will be processed within 6 weeks of time, I have booked little bit cheaper non-changeable and non-refundable flights with family, unfortunately after sending lots of emails they never gave any professional update on time to advise the status of OCI hence I have to submit mine and my son's application for Entry VISA to VFS in London,
I have asked one of the VFS staff to advise any other email address of OCI department to obtain actual status of OCI, she advised me to use this link
https://www.hcilondon.in/officerofhci.html
to contact them, as soon as I have sent below email I have started receiving professional updates about my OCI status and before that nobody was responding up to 7 days even if they respond they just said to wait no actual update to give the status of OCI, while replying they were CC'd these email address:
att.oci@hcilondon.in , dhc.office@hcilondon.in , min.coord@hcilondon.in , fs.coord@hcilondon.in
When I asked why it is getting delayed they said its due to some technical problems at Delhi but looking at previous very old posts on this and other forums I found very few people got their OCI within 6 weeks of time.
Its my kind request to all if you are application are getting delayed please start sending emails to above email address and tell them you are not happy as it will make huge difference in the quality of service they were/are providing, I have sent lots of emails to them but they were keep saying they are providing very good service and I should appreciate their work, as I am the only person sending emails to above address they are unaware how many other OCI customers are not happy with their service
Dear Ranjan,
I would like to bring your kind attention the service are provided by High Commission of India,London is very poor.
Whatever said on website never gets done in that time duration and nobody respond to emails, trust me it is spoiling the reputation of High Commission.
Hope you will look into all these issues at your earliest convenience
Many thanks
Kind Regards
Many thanks to all for reading this post
