In my opinion, the ECOs are not there to be nice to applicants. Filipinos got a bad reputation and making false claims just to make it in UK, so Im not surprise if we are treated that way. I feel sorry for those people who are in a genuine relationship and yet treated that way.

Just want to let people know not to expect to be treated nicely by ECOs.
hi geraldine sorry to hear your bad experienced with the ECO, i had an interviewed in my visit visa but it was very good actually.at that time many couples had failed their visa even their fiance and husband are there to support.
