Connexion reader overcharged by TLS Contact for French visa

Here they share their experience of getting a refund

If a mistake is made during the appointment process with TLS Contact, act fast is advice of a Connexion reader Pic: Lena Chert / Shutterstock

Following your recent articles and letters about problems with visa applications through the company TLS Contact, we were able to get an appointment at TLS Contact London and, eventually, a visa. 

However, TLS Contact made a mistake during the appointment process and overcharged us. 

They accepted that they had made a mistake, but it took 12 months and the threat of legal action to get a refund. 

I would like to stress how important it is that if a reader is overcharged during the visa application process, they insist on an immediate refund. 

Thanks for highlighting the challenges of dealing with this mediocre company.
