Dear OCI Team,
Thanks for your confirmation that you had our passports.
I don't know how the internal process works in Indian High Commission in London. All I understand from your website is:
If I submit my passport in the morning, by same day evening I can collect my passport along with OCI sticker in my passport.
Apparently, my passports are with you since 22/Nov and today is 3/Dec
Please can you confirm, why are you not able to complete the process? What is holding up the process?
Can you please advise me when will the third passport OCI sticker will be ready by?
I want all our passports dispatched in the same shipment and advise me of the realistic delivery date and I will manage my business trip expectations.
I would highly appreciate your confirmation
Thanks & regards,

Sorry, your passports (3) are with us as we are waiting for the OCI sticker no. 14xxxx. Rest of 2 have been affixed.
If you advise we can send the 2 passports with oci visa card with 3rd passport without oci stickers. As soon as we get the new sticker will inform you & you can submit that one.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I sent following below email on 28th Nov 2013 and I have had no response.
When I try to contact your OCI Section by Phone, no one is picking up the call (020 7632 3072 /020 7836 8484/ 020 7632 3035). Please let me know, when will I receive my passports back?
I have to go on a work related business trip to Sweden. I am very unhappy with your service standards. At least no information is providing to manage our business expectation in order to book my flights and schedule our company meeting in Sweden.
I urge your attention on this matter and advise me when will I receive my Passports as I sent them to you by special royal mail on 21 Nov and I had checked that they had delivered to you on 22/Nov.
Thanks & regards,

I sent a special delivery on 21/Nov/2013 with above listed. Unfortunately there is no further update as I had a scheduled trip to Sweden as I need my passport back ASAP. I tried to reach you on 020 7632 3072 /020 7836 8484 several times and no response on your phones. If you require any information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thanking you,
Yours truly,
