Thanks Pier_piper, you have totally sold this to me :).

My HR is not that forthcoming, but I guess persistence is the answer to all problems.

Thanks for pointing me to the absence sheet, I will use it as well I guess.

Regards

Hi pied_piper; Did you speak with your bank for payments. I did ring (HSBC) but they said payment will be fine but they could not make any pre note for any future payments.

Good point Arifahmmed, I bank with Lloyds, and have to pay 2066 on the debit card, wondering if there will be problems. Anyone know what the daily transaction limit on the debit card is?

There might be withdraw limit using debit card on cash machine (usually £300) but not limit for uses.

Ya just talked today with HSBC and they have given me the same reply. They have asked me to call them if there is some problem with the payment.

As a backup, I intend to talk to Natwest about the debit and credit card as well in case HSBC plays up on the appointment day.

Hi pied_piper: I have spoken to credit card lenders (post office and barclay card) and they are happy enough about the payment and made note on my account about the payment details.

However a quick question what you write on question 8 (give details ghen your finger prints were taken) page 38.

Although it is prudent to look at and address all potential loose ends, in UKBA's view the Card payment issue is primarily with Credit cards.

This is the note on Page 2 bottom of Set O form
"Please note that when making large or multiple payments using your credit card, the anti fraud measures that banks operate sometimes stop the full payment being taken. This is because either the maximum limit on a single transaction, or the number of transactions allowed in a given period of time, has been exceeded. To prevent this you must ensure that you inform your bank of your intention to make large or multiple payments in advance so that your bank allows the full payment to be taken when you submit your application."
Same could apply for Debit cards as well. My bank said the same (previous post/ers) about pre-authorizations, however their "normal" practice is to phone customers and verify authenticity of transaction in case of suspected fraud in Debit card payments.
Please do not send me PM if I haven't sent you one yet.
