I submitted my application on 17th July and submitted my biometrics via IDV route only on 31st August. I am still waiting.
UPDATE:
In-person biometrics (dual submission): 18/09/2020 (8.30am)
Approval received: 18/09/2020 (10.30am)
I had applied for Set (O). I needed an urgent decision and after viewing the development of this thread yesterday, I decided to book an in-person biometrics appointment for 8.30am today (18/09/2020) at Mark Lane, Tower Hill, London (£135). I received my approval TODAY itself at 10.30am ! Clearly, I cannot be 100% sure whether the swift decision was solely due to me opting for in-person biometrics, as I have done a dual submission. But even if the decision was as a result of my previous IDV submission, it is positive to see approvals are coming through.
