Last time was good but this time no answer from any telephones in London or Manchester - not even a machine
Applied by post on a Saturday. Received visa and passport the following Friday. Quick service.
Extremely rude staff I traveled to this place by train as I was far away so before I went Ive rang their advise line (only operating from 2pm to 4pm) the lady was nice and friendly. I have explain my suitation FULLY and she said I dont need appointment just pop in and they can provide me with the letter I need. However when I turned up in person, the woman there were unbelievably rude! She said completely different things to the lady on the phone. I was in there 3 minutes and out because they said they wouldnt help anyone to gain a passport in another nationality. I was shocked by their attitude when she said so as she was rolling her eyes and said its all MINE fault if Im facing problems as such. Then I rang the British passport office they were helping me as much as they can and there is just such a contrast between peoples service. Also where building located its a terrible area as while I was walking, people just sound their horns and laughing when they driving pass. So from my experience, please do not visit this place. Try to contact the office in London if possible as London will be their main office anyways so that you dont have to waste your money and time.
After having paid almost 300 for a multiple entry visa, the embassy ended up granting me a flimsy 2 entries, which is not enough for my trip back home. A friend paid a third of the price in Austria and got an actual multiple entry visa, despite me living in China for longer than she has. When I called the visa company they said it was up to the embassy to decide on the amount of entries, so I decided to call them up while they were still open and of course no one answered. Horribly customer service, probably cause theyre just a scam operation. Its a shame that theyre who you have to contact in order to get a Chinese visa. Its better money wise and service wise to just get an on arrival visa if you can.
I don't understand why the rating here is so low, maybe most of the ratings were given from westerns? TO BE HONEST, my overall experience here is quite good, the staffs are friendly and efficient. Most importantly, I would feel safer than anytime when I was in the place.
