Inform UKBA after submitting biometrics

[alphili]

Hi everyone,
Just a quick update to my post back on 12-April. I have finally received my passport and the Tier 1 visa (23 May received passport, 25 May received Biometrics card). I had sent in my application on the 17-Feb and had given my first biometrics details on the 26-Feb at the Earls Court post office. What i'd found out was that UKBA had NO RECORD of that biometrics test and it wasn't until I faxed them to expediate the process that they sent me a second request for biometrics data. Basically they had LOST the initial data.
So I suggest to all applicants that once they have done the biometrics test to send a fax to UKBA letting them know they you given your biometrics details. Else your application is just going to sit there for 2 months with nothing being done as UKBA don't seem to contact anybody.
The fax numbers i used were 01142072536 and 02081963248.
Good luck to everyone.
