I got your post on the Forum and wish to inform you that i was also rejected a Working Holiday Visa to UK. And was assisted to secure a UK WORK PERMIT by Mr Hanson Steve of the Border and Immigration Department of the Uk. He can still help you secure yours if you can contact him and tell him the Truth about what you wish to go and do in the Uk. His email id is (hansonlovsu003@yahoo.com) Tell him Mr isa Muhammad Recommended you to Him and i belief he will help you secure the Visa within Three weeks from now.

Regards
Isa Muhammad.

Thank you for the heads up, always good to keep ahead of them:xxgrinning--00xx3:

But although he/she is a scammer and many are from the country you mention. Maybe fairer to just call a scammer as Britain and phill have there fair share of con artists and crooks as well.

As we all know many Filipinas and their loved ones suffer from nasty sterotypes.

Ie mail order bride etc.

The giveaway is always the email address - as if UKVisas or indeed the UK government would use Yahoo email.

Not alwyas a good idea to reply they know its a live account and what ever you do make sure your real name is not in the email addy and of course no signature with personal details full name, address phone number etc or the company you work for etc.
