"Please avoid they charge bloody £30 for them handling your completed application. Joke. Do had to pay £60 for a £28 visa to Turkey. This wasn’t stated it showed just as £27.75 when completing the application"

"Company is incapable of answering any questions and keeps referring me back to the cruise company. Really disappointed with the service. Not helpful at all."

"I would give no stars if possible. The process was too long, complicated and confusing. The total cost for the application was not clear until I paid. There were additional charges that made the visa too expensive. After contacting the customer services to cancel they said it is too late. The account management team did not respond back after complaining via email. AVOID THIS COMPANY!!!"

"Avoid for Cuban Tourist cards/Visas! Fraudulent company who make the visa process unnceccesarily complicated and expensive. Visacentral costs - £101.20 per person Postal through cuban consualte - £34 per person! Visacentral application - long and complicated. Direct through cuban consualte - 1/2 Page to fill in with a photocopy of your travel documents. Only realised something was going on when they tried to charge an extra £25+ vat per person for a "photo verifaction service" when a photo is not even required for a cuban tourist card! Ended up booking a visa at the airport (gatwick toursit desk) for £15 each. Took me 5 minutes on the phone with none of the headache involved in the visacentral application process. The only good thing is they refunded without dispute. (hence the extra star) They might be legitimate for visas to other countries, but somehow I very much doubt it."

"I applied for a Chinese visa through VisaCentral. - I sent my visa off on Saturday 11th May, which was received by Visa Central on the Monday. - There was information missing in the application which they received on the Tuesday and we therefore agreed to change the application to a 3 day return time (at an extra cost) so it should be ready for the Friday. - Friday morning I have contact with Visa Central saying it is fine and ready to collect later that day. - At 3.30pm I get a call saying that the visa hasn’t been released and won’t be ready until Monday with no plausible explanation. - I explained that I had a flight that Sunday (19th) and without this visa I would not be able to take the flight I had booked. - They implied that they had forgotten to change the visa turnaround time from 4 day to a 3 day return. - As a result I had to reschedule my flight to the Wednesday as there were no other flights- costing me over £400 and losing out on 3 days of a prepaid tour. I used this company because I had left arranging my visa late and they claimed to offer a service that arranges visas to be sorted quickly and easily for their customers. Since then I have sent this company a solicitors letter which they have not bothered to respond to despite their terrible service. I would not recommend using this company."
