Am not sure about this thing... I missed a DX courier today :doh

Just applied for FLR(m) last year. on the 3rd week of November. Applied biometric a week after....
Was searching in google about UKBA's courier that they are using it says DX if it's really about the visa, I hope its not rejection letter with my documents returned :bigcry::bigcry::bigcry:

Thoughts please...:Erm:

The one who delivers the BRP card is DX courier. You can call them (DX) to reschedule. If you included a prepaid special delivery envelope when you submitted your application, it will be used for delivery of all your documents. Congrats! :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Isn't it too early Rayna? :Erm: I really hope it is though coz we'll try to visit phils this year... Feels like too early to have it coz it's like 7weeks ago since I passed my biometric.. That's really quick!!!
Was wrong about a week after. I applied via post on the 3rd week of november then I pass my biometric last dec. 9...
I really hope it's the BRP :pray::pray::pray:
It will be really such a good start of the year for us plus a wee man coming this spring :smile::smile::smile:

Thanks Rayna for the nonstop help :)

Haven't heard of DX, Mariam. :NoNo: But there again, Myrna came here as my spouse in March 2009 after applying for her visa through the British Embassy in Manila. And ... :anerikke: ... since she received her visa through
a delivery service called 'To Go' ... there's no reason why I would've.

Would imagine, though, DX seems likely to be the carrier the Home Office uses. However, research on Google yielded only the following telephone number:-

01604 782 882 ... which may or [equally] may not relate to this Company (*could even possibly be a subsidiary!) *that, I'm afraid, ISN'T altogether clear, alas ! :nono-1-1: ... but it's definitely worth a try.

Not sure about the UKBA but with regard to the Passport Office a couple of years ago I had a grubby Kurdish / Iraqi asylum seeker type in a beat up old car type turn up with my new passport - you couldn't make it up

I used to deliver UKBA stuff.

Pre 2009 they were called Special Mail Services then soon after merged with DX. I was on around 30k p/a before they started paying peanuts, hence the influx of foreigners and the reason for me leaving.

*01604 782 882

................ :yeahthat: number I previously gave you should, henceforth, be IGNORED, Mariam; instead, further research undertaken by me suggests you google 'DX - Tracking & Rebook' - then take things from there.

So ... apparently if your tracking no. amounts to 8 digits in length, then - by contacting 0844 826 1178 - you'll be able to check on an item's progress. Goodluck! :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Hi Arthur, Rayna's right... UKBA use DX for sending the BRP I just got it today:Jump::Jump::Jump:
Got a letter as well through royal mail about my BRP and enclosed passport etc. but it's not here yet ( I meant the passport) ... Or maybe later ( was searching in google about it that DX for BRP documents passed will be returned through royal mail ) Still unbelievable though too early.. I thought it will take longer for you to have the BRP if you're going to apply via post which we did...

Good start of the year!!!
Cheers x
