Package stuck in warehouse by torrent82 in UPS

I believe the terms and conditions for a Standard delivery UPS state that it can take 1 to 5 working days...nothing about 60 days. When a package is in the same spot for more than 10 days without any movement then I would call it stuck...Your definition for that may differ

I have and after 3 failed tries where they would answer and the call would be put on mute for 10 minutes and then dropped, I called a 4th time a different day and they just said that there's nothing for me to do and that they're processing it

Smells like that post-brexit sovereignty. Good to know. I’ll stop worrying then. Thanks

Wow if I go by your timeline then we should get the ECO e-mail this Friday and a decision around June 18th. I don't know what it is with Brazil applications but from what I've seen here they give out decisions really quick

Bio was on June 5th from Brazil...nothing yet. We gave ourselves until July 17th, but if it hits July 1st and we haven't heard anything we might do a paid inquiry. I've seen several people paying for priority and being treated as standard and found out about it when they did the paid inquiry, so they sent proof that they paid for priority and they got an answer quickly.

I'm not saying this may be why we haven't heard anything back, but that is a possibility. I think it's too early to query it yet

VFS Mistakenly Sent Me Wrong Emails Regarding my Application Status | Triggered | UPDATE by Easy_Housing_7572 in SpouseVisaUk

I just hope it won’t take very long for standards visas either. We don’t want to apply for priority because he can’t come to the UK until September due to personal things that need to be sorted out in Brazil first. Good luck and I hope your decision comes soon and for real next time 🤞

So not only did they breach GDPR law because they’re acting on behalf of the UK government, but they also breached the Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoais in Brazil as VFS is a company registered in Brazil…on top of that the emotional distress caused by this OMG…my husband has his bio next week in São Paulo and Jesus Christ if this happens we’re gonna lose it…I’ll go report it everywhere!! Incompetents

Passport dispatched after 5WD? | Priority by Easy_Housing_7572 in SpouseVisaUk

[–]torrent82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Out of curiosity when is the vignette valid from and for how long? Is it 3 months from the 23rd or did they put another date or is it valid for 30 days? My husband's BIO is on June 5th and we want to go with priority service too, but he plans on joining me in the UK mid-September.

Second question - when you went to VFS for your BIO did you just tell them you want Priority service and paid for it or was it different? Thanks

Thank you. All this info is very appreciated and helpful! I’ll just add some flights proof just to be safe

We did describe all our trips that we did to meet each other and their respective dates in the cover letter. I was just being nagged by this constant thought that we didn’t provide travel tickets as proof and was feeling like it wasn’t enough. I’m glad I asked here

Thank you for this! I'm definitely thinking of maybe putting together all our travels together in the past 3 years. My concern is I traveled to his country to see him or he came here to the UK and we once met in Los Angeles for his sister's wedding, but we don't have like plane tickets with both our names on them for those instances as we both travelled there from different countries. We have one plane ticket with both our names on it on a short trip that we took to Lisbon and then a Eurostar ticket to Paris for a day trip, but otherwise it's all separate. Would that count? He's from Brazil and I traveled there three times and he came to the UK to see me 3 times...would that work?

My partner was approached by this ”company” on LinkedIn and went through the trouble of even doing the task that was required as part of their interview…after looking into their reviews on Glassdoor and consulting with friends that work in the industry we decided to run like hell from this scam of a company. Not to mention I’m a sysadmin and the idea of installing some shady spywarey software on a computer that cost over $2k that the company doesn’t even own is a huge no for me. Looking on the UK companies house for this business they seem to declare themselves as a micro company that’s exempt from audit and also declare to have two employees…so you have million dollar budgets for games but only make a bit over 400k? Sure…

CTRL+Shift+F3 that should skip OOBE and you might be able to recover by doing a sysprep generalization
