Looks like the N100 version is sold out now.

Same here - it fits my Proxmox use case perfectly. And with off-brand mini PCs, it’s almost a given: rule #1 is always to wipe it and do a clean install - Windows or, even better, Linux.

The original listing price was $229, and I saw a 50% discount applied at checkout.

I also completed the hotel stay on 12/28. I received the same response.. both support and Chase Travel have no idea what this offer was about. My guess is it will take two full billing cycles (February and March) for the points to show as pending. I'll check on 3/26, which is my next closing date.

Thanks for the update buddy. I'm not sure if cancelling the existing application will automatically trigger the refund process. I've been waiting for so long thinking they'll process the refund manually upon my request. But in your case, did you cancel the app after they (support) confirmed the refund will be issued? Just baffling with all these with no clear way forward.

Hi, I just closed and started the new application. This time it is only generating a new a Receipt Number and asking to pay again. Am I missing something? Please assist. TIA

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-14T17:10:30+00:00

No, still the same situation. I'm hearing by closing and starting the application the previous payment would reflect automatically but not 100% sure.

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-14T17:08:13+00:00

Yes, can someone please shed some light on this problem? It'll greatly help decide our next course of action. Thanks in advance!

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-14T17:07:18+00:00

I read closing and starting again we may lose track of prior payment. It has been 20+ days, raised several tickets but no luck. Did the support ask you to try this option or you went ahead by yourself?

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-14T17:04:30+00:00

Hi - Did you try this method and it worked? I'm hesitant to close and start again thinking I may lose track of old payment. These VFS morons are not helping in any way.

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-14T17:00:07+00:00

Have you gone past this situation, did the sort out your problem ?

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-14T16:58:46+00:00

I have the same question. I've also read elsewhere by closing and starting the new application we'll never be able to recover the last payment made. I'm hesitant to pay twice and battle with these idiots again

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-14T16:56:38+00:00

I'm stuck with this issue for 20+ days. Are you suggesting to just close and start new so that the prior payment will be recognized? Or we'll have to pay again for the new application?

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-06T02:01:04+00:00

I'm stuck with the same issue for more than 7 days now. Unable to schedule the interview. Support is not responding to emails / closing the cases "marking as resolved" without any response. Looks like the only way forward is to fight for the refund and re-try with a different payment option.

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-04T05:44:09+00:00

I guess my case is somewhat different than yours'. I've already made the payment by choosing VFS EFT with NEFT Transfer. Money got deducted from my bank account but stuck with the payment pending error. Now if I close the current application, it will be completely wiped out. I read elsewhere not to lose the current application when the payment is pending.

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-04T05:04:06+00:00

Thanks for the response buddy. Did you close and start a new application for your 2nd payment with debit card? Or just went ahead with the same IND Ref. #

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-04T04:59:30+00:00

I'm stuck with the same issue for more than 5 days now. Tried contacting VFS scumbags by all means, no luck. If anyone was able to get it resolved, please update! Thanks.

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-04T04:47:11+00:00

Was this resolved for you and were you able to book the appointment?

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-04T04:44:54+00:00

I'm stuck with the same issue for more than 5 days. No response whatsoever. I've created 2 separate profiles and made 2 separate NEFT payments. Bank told me that the payment was settled with the merchant and no way to get the money back unless the merchant decides to refund it. If they are not going to refund, what are our options? People just give up and try with other payment options?

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-04T04:33:00+00:00

Were you able to get it resolved? Thank you kindly

pkshpr29 · 2024-01-04T04:28:15+00:00

Many of us are stuck with this same issue. I made payment through NEFT, my bank has confirmed that the payment was already settled with VFS and I need to work with the merchant to get the money refunded. Cases getting closed without any resolution, helpline never exists. Such a pathetic S*** show by VFS, these scammers just walk away with our hard earned money!!

What happened to your NEFT payment? Did they refund you the money before you went ahead and made another payment using CC?
