I've only sent mine on the 29/10 and I haven't received a reply yet. First time I sent them an email I got a reply within 5 days.

Consular Directorate
Foreign and Commonwealth Office
Old Admiralty Building
Spring Gardens
London
SW1A 2PA
Phone: +44 (0) 20 7008 1500 Fax: +44 (0) 20 7008 0152 E-mail: complaint.consular.services@fco.gov.uk
In your complaint you should provide:
a clear name and contact details
a clear description of your complaint with as much details as possible including the date of the incident
We will investigate your complaint fully. The investigation will be carried out by a member of staff who is not directly connected to your case or to your complaint. This person will usually be senior to any officer who a complaint has been made against.
We will do our best to give you a full reply within 20 working days. If we cannot give you a full reply within this time, we will tell you when we expect to do so.
We will record and examine complaints, and use the information to make sure we offer the best possible help and support.
If you are not satisfied with the response you receive, you can write directly to either a Foreign Officer Minister or your Member of Parliament (MP), asking them to raise your complaint with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
If you have made your complaint through your MP and are still not happy with the reply that we have given, you can contact the Parliamentary Ombudsman (also called the Parliamentary Commissioner for Administration). The Ombudsman will normally only consider cases relating to “maladministration” (that is, poor administration or applying rules incorrectly). There are more details about this on the Parliamentary Ombudman’s website
Actually my 6 months are up on the 22nd and I'm yet to hear about whats the situation off my case. I don't know if its on hold or just under process which the tracking service claims. If I don't hear anything by/on the 22/11 I will get a lawyer involved without a doubt.Zainab26 wrote:ADUANWAR wrote:Asalam O AlikumZainab26 wrote:Hi All,

Hope you are well.
I'm really annoyed that they have not bothered to reply. I even sent a second email on Monday reminding them of my previous email sent on 13th Oct.
Have you appealed too?
6 months?? OMG that is a long wait! Yes definitely get your lawyer involved if you still haven't heard anything soon. My husband's visa got refused over one point only, not providing bank statements....thanks to the consultant in Pakistan! We were only missing bank statements and have sent them 4 months ago. My husband's application is still under review.ADUANWAR wrote:Actually my 6 months are up on the 22nd and I'm yet to hear about whats the situation off my case.

Did u apply in June? My 24weeks are up on 22nd as well and not been told Its on hold but I have a feeling it is cos I was contracting before through an umbrella company. Every time I email to ask they say that enquiries are on going!ADUANWAR wrote:

No I applied on the 22/05/2013 and it changed to under process at BHC on 05/06/2013. I really don't know what's taking so long. Next week is the last week off the six months period unless my math is way off. Doubt anyone would hear anything until Monday because off the Marham holidays. Like they are working anywayTangoMike wrote:Did u apply in June?

Don't know why they are taking so long!

Were u under permanent employment with salary over the threshold or contracting/self employed?ADUANWAR wrote:No I applied on the 22/05/2013 and it changed to under process at BHC on 05/06/2013.

make sure u have previous 6 months payslips which show the minimum income requirement and the bank statements to prove that income in to your bank acount and what could really make it stronger is if you can get a letter from employer to say you are earning certain amount of income that should realy be enough and yes if you can provide your tax form alongside thoseJaveriaK wrote:Hi guys,
