I agree with mimmy. The passport is with vfs or maybe with british embassy, ukvi has nothing to do with it. Or maybe they can track where the passport is and reply accordingly
UKVI cannot track it, I asked them last week. They said they cannot track passports, they can only provide updates regarding the status of the application
How do I get in contact with vfs?
I called their helpline number, but all in vain. They dont tell us anything, just say you have to wait. I even asked them to check, but they said they cant check. Ita useless to call them. They just say you have to wait, we cant give you any timescale
Yes I agree with you. They just say to wait. Guess we're all just waiting for a miracle to happen then

It’s best just to wait they can’t really do much and waste our time and money

I received a reply today from Sheffield Escalations to my 4th time escalating. They've basically said to wait they cannot give a timescale for when a decision will be made.

Here I am just waiting now... as I have been... for the last 6 months. Same replies every time from them!
I’ve received this same email from them today, I wonder how long we will have to wait now.

So many people are waiting from June.. our bio was on the 30th June in Turkey. We’ve had 3 escalations, we’ve contacted the local MP, we’ve called the home office and we are still waiting. We can’t do nothing but wait, it’s sad that Christmas is around the corner. I thought we would receive a decision in 3 months but unfortunately that was all lies. I’ve lost all hope to be honest, I doubt we’ll be getting a decision before the new year.

We’re on 111WD, according to the HO website 100% are completed by 24 weeks which would be 120WD but I don’t believe that anymore.

CONGRATULATIONS!! That's amazing news! I'm very happy for you :)

Can I ask exactly when was your bio date?
Reading your previous comments it just says June 2021 not the exact date? Mine was the 28th and my timeline is very similar to yours in terms of the emails received from HO so I just want to compare if that's ok

Bio date was 14th of june
Received email of case not straightforward 2 times, received decision taken and to submit passport on 9th november, received email regarding brp collection after a week of passport submission, received email to collect passport back on 29th november
I hope you all will get a positive response soon. In the end what matters is the positive decision, it doesnt matter if ukvi take few weeks or few months more, but this little wait is far more better than rejection and waiting for years and years. Stay strong everyone, you all will hear good news soon InshaaAllah.

That’s good news even though you’ve had to wait so long! Did you or your employer get any calls from the HO?

Nope still not heard anything, the last thing I got was an email replying to the escalation saying we’re still working on it and can’t give a timescale. It’s just so frustrating, it’s been 24 weeks for me today and I thought I would have heard something by today.
