VIP premium

Is Prime Time Appointment the same to VIP Premium? I couldn't find the VIP option when I booked an appointment.

If your enquiring about the VFS application centre Manila then no, they're not the same. They're two different service options.

No queuing
Comfort and privacy
Personalised attention and service during the submission and biometric process
Free refreshments and snacks

Many forum members have opted for the VIP service and have been very satisfied with it.

When my fiance applied for a visitors visa i got her a VIP appointment ... and felt it was completely pointless, there was no queue anyway, she was never offered refreshments and the visit britain booklet can be found online .. the only good thing was having an email that got replied to the next day rather than a 7 day wait for a reply.

Just our opinion, but sometimes peace of mind is worth the money

My wife opted for VIP service, she didn't have to line up and got the "VIP" treatment and all done within one hour, so well worth the extra cost

Agree I availed VIP Premium and I only stayed there for 30 minutes.
