Dekers Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 If you can't get a response on the phone then write, requesting they supply a temp FAC and expedite yours, send it recorded, or deliver it personally if possible! You could do the same by Email if they have one! Phone again tomorrow as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloke Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Been told it will be at least 6 weeks before my FAC application even lands on the FEO's desk, admittedly a new application, and 10 to 12 weeks average for completion!!

They will never put that it writing. This is a disgraceful situation, especially as the police always unlawfully demand payment up front. J.
