POMCHOB Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Hi Does anyone on the forum have an email for : UK Immigration & Border AgencyVisa/Permits Services DirectorateLunar House40 Wellesley Road, CroydonSurrey - CR9 2BYUnited Kingdom I would like to contact the Local Office from outside the UK by email as the premium number will obviously be expensive music to listen too! As my Thai wife would like to get advice on any issues or problems at Immigration she could face from changing her first name on her Thai Passport for her return back to the UK where she currently lives on a BRP with ILR. As the Consulate in Bangkok cant answer this question . Thank-you for any help POMCHOB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobrussell Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Email contact can be via the .gov website: https://www.gov.uk/contact-ukvi-outside-uk or phone premium rate number: 0018 001 5620 78469 from Thailand with a credit card! Not sure if the old UKBA address will still work! They are not keen to publish email addresses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POMCHOB Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 I am a UK resident, I have tried, with no success to Phone UKVI Croydon UK wanting to ask, what should be a very simple question and answer Each time i call the UKVI on 0018 001 5620 78469 from Thailand . The first call made yesterday at 20:30 (thai Time) Automated message said lines are now closed. Called again today from Thailand 17:30 (thai time)Automated message said lines are now closed. Anyone have any idea why the lines are closed ? Are there any UKVI Immigration Officers that visit the Thaivisa Forum that could answer my Question ,as its pretty simple question. The UK Consulate in Bangkok in email reply said they can only advise UK citizens as she only has a Biometric Residency Card and ILR living in the UK and has not applied for her UK passport as yet.

Or is this a Premium number outside the UK.? Thanks for your reply POMCHOB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobrussell Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Misunderstood! I thought you were contacting them from outside the UK. There is a helpline 0300 123 2241 which is supposed to be of value. When I tried I was put through to the bit where they took the credit card number. Was then disconnected! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
