    What courier is used by ukba?

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

    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

    Thoughts please...

    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!

    Isn't it too early Rayna? 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
    It will be really such a good start of the year for us plus a wee man coming this spring

    Thanks Rayna for the nonstop help

    Haven't heard of DX, Mariam. But there again, Myrna came here as my spouse in March 2009 after applying for her visa through the British Embassy in Manila. And ... ... 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 ! ... 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.

    ................ 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!

    If love doesn’t require some sort of sacrifice on our part, we probably aren’t loving the person at all.

    Hi Arthur, Rayna's right... UKBA use DX for sending the BRP I just got it today
    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
