As a student I totally get where you're coming from. Any money to a student is a lot of money(especially considering the amount of international tuition fees we pay), even though we are technically self sufficient. When I got married however, I had no desire to get married in the uk (too cold, can't have a beach weddin, too many restrictions) so we got married in my dream place in the caribean instead .phicus wrote:That is so unfair. Both my wife and i were on a student visa and had to pay 295 each.
I understand that students are legally required to provide for themselves, but paying an unecessary fee for an unecessary piece of paper is not providing for yourself!
I'm required to have enough for my school fees, and for every day life. Paying 300 just to get a permission to get married because i'm foreign does definitely not fall into that category! Makes me so angry, they've made so much money on us.
To be honest, when we calculated the costs, it was cheaper to have it at the carribean.phicus wrote:Yeah, that is a nice wedding Sadly, the UK was all we could afford, and since she's from the states and i'm from Serbia, England was 'middle ground' for both families to be able to attend.
I think i'll start playing the lottery. There's more chance of me getting any money from there than getting the COA refund here!
Yeah, junkymotown, i've got a friend who's going through that, and is quite upset. He needs to pay them £1000, and it's virtually impossible to book an application. The service is 'here' but is almost unusable! What's the £1000 for then? They should be kissing your rear for that amount of money!

Especially as it was free before 2003!
