If there is under one star would be ideal for rating them, the worst service ever

absolutely shit

Worst website, worst appointment system, 0 attention

Same experience as others. Horrible website dug out from 1999. Extremely slow, captures everywhere, functionality is broken not letting you to book an appointment at all

Whoever is in charge of the BLS Spain website needs to be whipped. Multiple idiotic captchas, 2 mins to load each step which is just a basic form each time, server keeps timing out. Scammer dogs need to upgrade their servers from the 1990s. How can you make this useless of a website and take people's money, you fools?

Cannot be more horrible. Totally a waste of time. No slots for longer than 2-3 weeks, when it finally have slots, the whole website collapse and collapse!

My parents visited BLS Ahmedabad office to apply for Spanish visa under Visas for family members of a citizen of the Union. Required documents​​ 1. Schengen visa application form: Each applicant must complete and sign an official application form, filling in each of its sections. If the applicant is a minor, one of their parents must sign the application. 2. Photograph: A recent, passport-size, colour photograph, taken against a light background, facing forward, without dark or reflective glasses, or any garments concealing the oval of the face. Photographs of minors must not show any part of the adult holding them. 3. Valid, unexpired passport: Original and a photocopy of the page or pages of the passport that contain biometric data. The passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure date from the Schengen territory. It must also contain at least two blank pages. Passports issued more than 10 years ago will not be accepted. 4. Documents proving family relationship with a citizen of the Union or a State of the European Economic Area or Switzerland: Civil registry certificates (birth or marriage, accordingly), certificate of registration as an unmarried couple or any other document proving that the partnership is analogous to a marital relationship. 5. In the case of descendants over 21, ascendant relatives or other relatives, documents proving they are in the care of a citizen of the Union or a State of the European Economic Area or Switzerland or, if applicable, their state of health. 6. Documents proving that the applicant is travelling with a citizen of the Union or a State of the European Economic Area or Switzerland or is on the way to joining them. 7. Proof of residence in the consular district. They had all the necessary documents as per the required documents listed above as published on Spanish government website (no link post is allowed here) but the adviser refused to take their application asking for Official Carta de invitación (Letter of invitation) from National Police which is not required for the visa category they are applying for. He even refused to see the guidance from Spanish government on the link and asking them for one documents from required documents list 7.1 which doesn't exist on the Spanish government guidance for Visas for family members of a citizen of the Union. Such a disaster and disgrace for not helping my aged parents who are visiting their son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren. This should be taken seriously by Spanish Consulate and I have reported this to Mumbai Consulate General and I am going to contact them following Monday to clarify this and force BLS to take their application. BLS's job is only to collect the application at the appointment centre and not to make decisions whether to accept it or not if they're not up to date with various visa requirements and don't put visitor to Spain in such situations. They are damaging name of the Spain and Spanish government.

Bsl and the spainish embassy in ireland are a disgrace, they are of no help when you contact them. BSL tell you to contact the Spanish embassy and they just ignore you and your emails. The Spanish embassy should not be here in Ireland, it helps no one. Their appointment computer system is a disgrace, when you book a date it says it will send an email, but never does then when you go back into it , there is no dates available, a total disaster and unhelpful They are ignorant and rude and very unhelpful. They ignore people and should be kicked out of Ireland
