husseinfatal Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Hey all, My GF is off to Bangkok tomorrow to submit her documents for her UK visa application. Her friend told her she can get a bankers cheque near the VFS office easily....is this correct in anyones experience? Her app to hand in the documents is at 9am Monday so it is cutting it a bit fine im worried. I presume she cant pay cash at the desk? The website didnt say so mind. So yeah if anyone has any experience paying for a UK visa app on the day i would welcome the advice! Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadafi Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 she can get a bankers cheque downstairs from where the vfs is located. Simple and wont take long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theoldgit Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 As above, and no she cannot pay cash directly to VFS. Hope you don't mind me adding that don't forget to warn her about the dodgy agents in the building who seem to prey on unaccompanied applicants.

husseinfatal Posted June 24, 2012 Author Share Posted June 24, 2012 Hi all thanks for your swift responses! Yes I heard there were some people in the building so I have told her to watch out and go straight to the 2nd floor. Thanks again!!!

7by7 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 The bank is on the ground floor, the 'agents' are on the second floor. They wont say they are from VFS, but will offer to 'check' her application. They will then find 'something wrong' which they can 'fix', for a fee of course. Tell her to ignore them. If she is in the UK visa application centre there will be signs saying so and the staff will be in uniform. No signs, no uniforms; she is not in the UKVAC and the person talking to her is not VFS staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillion Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 (edited) regarding the bankers cheque. Is it just as simple as drawing money out of an ATM, giving the money to the bank and they give you a check? Or does it need to be transferred electronically to them? thinking about applying for a visitors visa. thanks Edited June 25, 2012 by Pillion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't there is even the facility for electronic transfers to get a cheque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
