Worry no longer, mate! This is just one of the Embassy staff's two Standard Messages/little quirks (when everything has been dealt with) ... both of which GENERALLY mean the visa is affixed to an applicant's passport ... although [apart from the ECO] God alone knows WHY the so and so's can't simply inform the people concerned of the actual OUTCOME at the same TIME and be done with it!
