State of Visa services in India

VFS Global is probably the worst monopoly service out there.

- Accept fees in cash only
- Staff not trained on all visa classes
- Mandate masks to customers, when most of their staff inside don’t wear one.
- Get you to use their print/photo services when not needed and charge a bomb.

Total loot on everything. This should be migrated to TCS type of large outsourcer who does Passport. more

Services in india at prices that are higher than that in a foreign country. What rationale is this? VFS may be appointed by embassies to front-end them but not to profiteer the way they are. their service is not commensurate with the charges. A majot overhaul is needed to fix this anomaly. more

As regards payment terms, VFS should go on with the GOI policy for digital payments. And also, may look after the professionalism of staffs. Otherwise, their service is up to the satisfaction. Hope, for the best in future and the Govt. may look into the matter too... more
