Hi,
the bank just sent me a copy of the original ones today up to the end of December. I just need to wait now to get the month of January which could take until around the 12th of Feb before they are posted which is a pity as everything else is ready. I know i could print of the month of Jan online but still unsure if they would accept that.

One other thing i was looking into sending the bank statements etc by post asap and by using a fast delivery and the quote i have so far is DHL and they are looking £50 which i thought was expensive, have you any other ideas?

John, don't worry too much about this fiasco over bank statements, its not uncommon, in June of last year, I had already submitted bank statements to them, when Gina's visa was 'famously' re-voked, 'without prejudice' I had to submit a further bank statement for June of that year, and for July, when we exclaimed to them that it was not the end of June even, and that those statements were in the future, they just shrugged their shoulders, so don't worry too much, the January statement shoud arrive after end of the month, mine normally comes around the 5th of the next month.

May I suggest you send them FeDEX its normally around £35.00 from any participating agent, or FeDex direct.

If you want to cut costs, you can send them Royal Mail international Signed for, this is a normal envelope service, but an extra £5.00 will get the enclosure signed for in the Philippines, although the time scale is the usual 10-14 days for arrival.

Other than that, there is no other way, unless of course you go back with them.
