BLS InternationalReviews of blsspainvisa.com

No available appointments slots for nearly two months, The website is down everytime they add a slot. Appointements are sold by BLS staff on the black market.

I hope the spanish embassy are aware of the poor customer service of this bls. No appointment schedule. Its impossible. Totally acceptable. Changed all the people whos managing these

Just on a serious note whats the point of making all these bookings paying the airfare trying to meet all the requirments etc,wasting money after been notified that there are no appointments available. Good way of scamming people.

BLS manages Spanish visas in Senegal. The website does not work properly and it is almost impossible to get an appointment. They do not answer emails, they tell you that they only give information in person, not by phone. Once there, they tell you that if you pay you can get an appointment that should be for free. When the visit of a 9-year-old boy to hir father cannot be carried out due to irresponsible and rude people, it is very sad.

I mean no need to mention all the bad experiences I had, just look at the rating loooool. However I'm here to expose the(BLS CEO) crooks trick they do. -They sell slots to traveling agencies under the table for extra, that's why they are fully booked. -they give a cut to Spanish lobbies to keep them as their solely Visa intermediate regardless of their poor amateurism(no compétition) -Spanish gov (Africans of Europe) give very few Visa quotas to brown third world citizens skin who in fact built their 800 years Andalucían civilisation. I swear it much faster for me to get to Spain using dingy from North African than going through their "legal" process. Even tho I'm the husband of Spanish citizen+baby for 10years...

Agree with the recent reviews here. BLS introduce their new 'Spain visa at your doopstep' which costs approimately £400 and suddenly it is impossible to get a standard appointment in London (used to be under £100 and quite easy to get). I logged in every day morning and evening to check for August 2022 slots going live as they would not confirm timing via email. They must have went live sometime last night - checked this morning and no slots available. They couldn't care less - it seems obvious they have cut the number of appointments available in London to force people to pay massive amounts to obtain the visas with their new rip-off 'offering'. Pretty much a money making scam and a true disgrace! None of these reviews will make a difference either - they don't care and are only interested in cornering people into having no choice but to pay extortionate fees.

It is impossible to get an appointment. I booked my holidays 3 months ago and I never could find a slot. When they open a new month slots they are already taken. If you call them they are rude and no helpful at all, only said: we don’t know, no slots available and they cut the phone. I can’t believe that the ONLY website available to get a visa works like that. Why don’t they open the whole calendar? There is an online way to get your visa that costs more than £500, I’m sure they close all the appointments to make people buying that service and pay. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE

BLS are useless. You cannot travel to Europe because there are ‘no appointments Left at BLS. Finding an available appointment slot is like winning the lottery and it doesn’t matter if you apply 3 months in advance or 1 month. But if you pay a travel agent to book an appointment for you, there are plenty of slots available…so they want you to do this for the extra ££ they can make off you. Do the Spanish consulate know that BLS are profiting from this in this manner? Yes I’m sure they do. I got a home visit slot in the end for my husbands visa which cost £398… But it wont begin to process until 1 week after they come to your house WHICH THEY DON’T TELL YOU OF COURSE because they want your money and don’t care less if you get the visa in time! Our home visit was on Monday and won’t start to be processing until next Monday but they just tell you it will start processing in 2-3 days Then you have to add 15 days and then add on courier delivery time which is impossible to find out btw. I thought applying 1 month in advance would have been more then enough time! I’ve applied for many China visas which took 7-14 days. The BLS help line is based in India and are rude and knew less then we did. My average wait to get though by phone was about 45 minutes. I’m more upset on how the Spanish government allow such a poor performing company to represent them. Is it punishment for brexit? Because it feels that way. Or are they just using the cheapest company they could find which uses call centres from overseas. Also please have more information on your website then less people will clog up the phone lines with basic questions, example: No slots available, or please book appointment 6 months in advance, please photocopy original bank statements and send the copy only with application or even mention the fact that there are VERY FEW APPOINTMENTS AVAILABLE so people can not waste there time and go somewhere else and save ££££…. please!!!!!!!! Spanish Consulate, do you realise people are buying air tickets for a visa you know full well, they are likely not going to get because YOU use con artist company’s like BLS….. I guess you don’t care…..Disgraceful! My advice to those hoping to get away for a holiday this year… Avoid schengen countries as it’s not worth the stress, anxiety and money lost that comes with applying for a visa. Rant over
