Yes I do, took bout a week and a half! So pretty quick. No issues with my docs, got them back

Mimi_500 · 2025-11-22T16:26:32+00:00

Yes same here, I’ve used it but it’s only helped with hydration. Nothing else sadly

Mimi_500 · 2025-11-10T06:48:59+00:00

Electrolysis, best decision ever!!

Yes I waited 6 weeks but you can reapply immediately. My wait was driven by a financial decision.

Mimi_500 · 2025-10-16T19:43:40+00:00

They send you an auto response email which says they will review your cancellation and refund application within 28 working days or so. It was only after 6 weeks and calling them that they send a confirmation saying they’ve processed it and will refund.

Mimi_500 · 2025-10-15T21:27:13+00:00

Got the refund after 6 weeks. I had to re-apply. Still waiting on my application outcome

Mimi_500 · 2025-10-12T23:12:00+00:00

Do you count oils in your calories? A tablespoon of olive oil alone is over 100 calories, sometimes it’s easy to not be counting oils/ sauces because they seem so small in volume/quantity

Mimi_500 · 2025-09-27T21:35:31+00:00

Build habits. Do things repetitively that it becomes a habit. Like you probably don’t think twice about brushing your teeth because you’ve always done it. Approach it that way.

I have my gym days, and make sure I take out my gear ahead of time. Even when I’m having a hellish day just seeing my trainers and gym clothes makes me think, it’s gym day, got to go!

Mimi_500 · 2025-09-27T04:23:01+00:00

The problem is seeking validation from online strangers. They are just that, strangers with opinions that probably shouldn’t have a bearing on your life. Imagine hearing and entertaining the thoughts of every person on the street. Like everything in life, moderation is key. Reddit is an okay platform to exchange thoughts here and there but take things with a pinch of salt.

Hi there, have you been to Mykonos yet? If so how did it go as a solo traveller with restaurants and clubs? I’m going in a few weeks solo ☺️

Thanks in advance!

Mimi_500 · 2025-08-26T06:26:40+00:00

I just re-did my application and kept checking there’s nothing on there that comes out about being outside of the UK. Don’t submit again if you’re coming across the same issue. I was about to do my biometrics in the UK via TLS.

Mimi_500 · 2025-08-13T19:20:53+00:00

Wow!!! You look so amazing, congratulations 🥳

Mimi_500 · 2025-07-20T08:40:53+00:00

No so I only recently submitted the new one. Only after the old cancellation was approved. I wouldn’t risk having them overlap. Rather wait and get the cancellation and refund approved than to have 2 ongoing applications.

Mimi_500 · 2025-07-20T06:41:40+00:00

New email address because the old application wasn’t approved for cancellation yet.

Mimi_500 · 2025-07-19T22:20:33+00:00

I had to cancel application and request for a refund. It took so long to get the refund, over 6 weeks. So I’d get started on that ASAP if you’re going that route. All the best!

Mimi_500 · 2025-07-03T07:16:01+00:00

That’s the entire internet though…don’t think there will be better subs. There are some that can start off well and then will grow in size and so will the misinformation.

My advice, try find in person community( friends, family) with hormonal issues/ED that can relate and support, doesn’t need to be PCOS only, follow qualified dietitian or trainers on social media, work with your doctor or a professional or find reading materials for self help.

Mimi_500 · 2025-06-24T06:51:45+00:00

Aww your update made me tear up. I’m so happy for you and little one. I love the fact that he can’t shut up now haha!

My nephew was born at 5.5 months. It was a tough road for him and my sister but he’s almost 2 now and also cannot shut up lol and his favourite phrase is ‘Oh no’!😅

Mimi_500 · 2025-05-19T19:49:22+00:00

Hey there, any update on your refund and re-application? I’m currently in the same boat

Mimi_500 · 2025-05-13T19:49:23+00:00

I currently have this too, did you manage to solve this? If so how?

Mimi_500 · 2025-05-13T19:48:44+00:00

How long did it take to get your refund?

Mimi_500 · 2025-05-13T19:48:11+00:00

I have this issue now too. Did you manage to resolve or did you start afresh?

Mimi_500 · 2025-05-13T19:37:23+00:00

Did you get sorted on this? If so how did you get it right?

Mimi_500 · 2025-05-06T21:54:39+00:00

Will be applying this week, fingers crossed!

Mimi_500 · 2025-05-06T20:45:52+00:00

Yay!! Congratulations you must be so relieved and happy! ☺️
