VFS Global a big ****

Recently l wanted to apply for relative's visas for my kids and booked an appointment with VFS Global South Africa after making a payment of R4150. On the appointment date, l was told l have to either apply for a waiver on the visitor's stamps on my kids passport or apply at an embassy in my home country, and l chose the latter. I then booked an appointment with VFS in Harare after paying USD225 and sent my wife with the kids to apply for the visas. She was told we have to have a minimum of R30 000 in our bank account which is not written anywhere of their list of requirements which is contrary to the R8,500 required on the list of requirements on their website. . She was also asked to provide proof of accommodation despite having one of the accepted document (certified copy of permanent residence).

VFS is a ****, they make you pay without fully disclosing the requirements for each visa category so that they can fleece your money. People steer clear of these ******.
