Thank you everyone fingers crossed time

Neish & Keiki im so sorry I know it’s a happy sad feeling watching other people post they’ve had decisions I’m really hoping you two get yours this week too ...this wait is torture xxx

Ps. Make sure you’ve sent a written enquiry if you’ve not already done so ..it was only in response to that method of contacting them that we got things moving for us

Oh dear! Did something like that happen to you Russ?

Not Russ, but my Fiance took Norwegian to OAK (CA) in April and his flight here was decent, but on his way back the plane was stopped on the tarmac for 4 hours before takeoff! Something about a flat tire they said, but he was very grumpy about it. Nobody was compensated in any way and the flight didn't include food so he ended up running out of the snacks he brought.

That being said I am still considering taking Norwegian because the economy flight for them is $140 vs $500 on other carriers! Even business class on Norwegian is only $550 for my one way from SF to LGW, so at least I would be comfortable if we get stuck on the plane ::)

Being left behind sucks but i cant help but to be excited for someone who no longer has to endure the torture.
My husband's MP did send a written enquiry, to which the  response had to  do with our application being not straightforward, therefore needing more time.
Hopefully its sorted by next week. we didnt initially use a sollicitor and from what i've learned not sure it makes much sense at this point.

Hoping the non priority applicants hear back this week too!

This waiting around is absolute torture. Mentally it's destroying all brain cells. Becoming so impatient every single day, everyday is a struggle. I'm so fed up with this process.

Another quiet day, don't know what on earth Sheffield are playing at. Get those decisions out, or are they waiting to dump a large load of decision made emails on applicants at the very end?

Can I give you all some advice as it worked for me.... get off the forum for a few days and just give your head a break... try not to think about it because posting messages every single day around the wait time and torture doesn’t help anyone and will only cause you more anxiety, trust me I’ve been there and my advice is to switch off for a while and give yourself a breather :-)

Looks like I may have to do that. Constantly at it everyday on Facebook, on three forums. I'm so hooked it's so bad.

It fancied a round the world trip before it lands at the destination. Good luck!  :)
