This is a fraudulent company that is not delivering what they promise

This is a fraudulent company that is cheating you with an incorrect price at the start of the process and then charging ten times the cost for a UK ETA. They say it's a two-year ETA, but then when you get the email with the ETA, it's only for six months, if the ETA is valid at all. I had to block my credit card after trying to use their service. Stay miles away from this fraudulent company.

This is a scam

This is a scam. Do not order a visa unless it is via the UK Government website. £154 was removed from my account for a £20 visa which I was ordering for my daughter, which I did not receive. I am disputing this payment with my bank at the moment and getting nowhere.

Watch out for hidden costs!

The site claims they only charge "administrative fees." However, it was only after I paid that I noticed a €147 charge on my credit card. It was only then that I realized no clear price was shown on the payment screen. This was a very unpleasant surprise.

I also sent them an email regarding this issue, but to this day, I have received no response.
