but isn't that the reason why they want to strike? hope you are right and there is no strike, because they are messy enough without strikes....samkma wrote:Derivaz wrote:I don't think there will be a strike as Royal Mail, shares are being sold out at the moment (£750 minimum investment) there will be no point in strike action after being sold.neoseal wrote:

I have so far emailed them for an update twice now, getting the same "no decision" response. I enquired about my case being assigned to someone and I was told that they do not give out that inflation anymore..so for all I know, my file could be in a dark place somewhere...forgotten :S ... It is encouraging though to see all the success stories!

), it was just a matter of time and conveneince when it comes to planning holiday travel and returning Indian passports.Yes, I did; no, that doesn't make me think I'm going to get my decision now; the HO doesn't follow any logical process; I think they just pick applications randomly....pkt1980 wrote:Derivaz,
I see that you applied on the same day as me. But given the working process of HO I would not hold my breath. For me, I knew it would happen, (well, almost sure
I hope your approval arrives in the mail soon. Thanks for all your posts.

I should have been more explicit in my writing. When I said, "I knew it would happen", I meant that eventually my application would have been approved. It was just that the timing of the approval could sometimes mess up your travel plans.
Hope you dont have to wait too long.
