    We got married in Manila in 2006.

    We found the British Consulate was decidedly unfriendly. My fiancée had a small clutch bag and had to wait outside as 'no bags allowed' and no facility to leave the bag at reception.

    This was unlike the Spanish consulate where they held the bag at reception whilst we both went in.

    I had thought the British embassy would have amended their service when they moved to the new premises.

    My friend, who will get married next week in Manila, had the same experience recently as his fiancée was made to wait outside.

    I was hoping that they would be employing and training more peeps and confining them to areas away from the construction.

    during my time they let you inside the embassy if you have an ID since I don't bring my ID with me Im not allowed to get in so its my fiancee now my husband went it to get the application. When the embassy ring me for interview they emphasis on the letter that no bags, no cellphone and all the documents should be in a clear envelope.
