Im going throu the same thing...

my story: I have been dealing with global visas since september of last year. First the man i was doing business with was transfered out of the US to cananda so trying to get him on the phoe is next to impossible. every one in the US office WILL NOT HELP!!!

Simply put i should of search for reviews before i used them bec all the negative reviews are real!!! I gave a $500 deposit, and it still has not got returned. I dont have money growing on trees where i can just forget about it. I cant get anyone to return my calls... They could not get a visa for my wife. thats okay, i understand...so wheres my refund? they didnt do anything!!?? they told me i should recieve it soon... that was on december...

I will look into taking legal action. cmpanies cant treat people like this. its wrong.

Similar to many who have handed over their hard earned money, I trustingly paid £1920 to Global Visas, having been assured that I was elligible for a nominated occupation. I disagreed and strongly queried this as I felt unqualified for the chosen occupation. The application was unsuccessful for reasons of not meeting the required criteria, as I had insisted from the start. Being portrayed as 'experts' I allowed them to act on my behalf.
I was told to do the IELTS acedemic examination costing £115 and learned later that the general test would have been sufficient. Plus a further £205.18 was paid to the Skills Assessment Authority.
I have sent e.mails and made numerous 'phone calls to no avail. They just ignore my request for a refund fobbing me off with 'we will contact you soon' etc. It must be mentioned that I only opted to deal with them because they promised a refund if unsuccessful.
What comeback do we have as ordinary innocent people against these large Companies? I am out of pocket and shattered but, because I am determined to live in Australia, will have to start all over again. I have been told by another Visa Company that it was obvious that the wrong visa and category was applied for. Please help me know what my next step should be to get fairness and closure of this matter.

Choosing Global Visa is my ever big mistake in life. I paid an initial Php30, 000 for my papers to be reviewed and submitted to the centralized intake office. They informed me that my docs were being submitted to CIO already, but it was just stored in their branch office in UK.It took 6 months before I discover the truth. I retrieved my papers in their Cebu Philippines office but there were some missing. I send my papers on my own to CIO but it was too late, the limit has been reached for my occupation. The worst, they never returned my Php30, 000.00.
