2go is worthless

[madtownguy 164]

So 4 days in a row the 2go tracker has said the visa is out for delivery. It seems much better to pick the visa up after my experiences with 2go. I told my fiance she should call them and say you need to talk with the person that has it, and make sure they physically have it in their hand and then go pick it up. I had to do this once with fedex also. My fiance should be tearing them a knew one, but she just always waits another day unfortunately the flight is in a week and there aren't that many more days left to wait.

If I remember correctly, it took about 6-7 days for our visa to be delivered to the branch that we chose. The confirmation stated in route for us as well until it was actually delivered. Then, it was updated to show the location of delivery and all. I believe it can take up to two weeks for a home address, but yeah, having it delivered to a branch and not getting an update after a week, I would start calling.

If you don't have the visa yet it also means that her CFO isn't done. One week at this point may be really pushing it. They say never to buy your tickets until you have your visa with the CFO in hand. Good luck I hope everything turns out ok.

Yeah it was delivered to the branch almost a week ago, for some reason the branch isn't delivering it. Everyday the status just says out for delivery. weird

Not buying the ticket is more expensive because of ticket prices increasing last minute. It makes more sense to risk it and then pay the change fee if something does happen.

Trying to track the visa packet is useless. 2GO will text her when delivery is imminent. In the meantime, call their local office every day.

probably because it was holy week last week that's why 2Go did't deliver it. but we can now pick up the visa at 2GO Mall of Asia (that is if she chose MOA). it might take up to 2days or u need to wait 2go's text to know if it is already there. maybe she can visit the branch where it was delivered.just bring a valid ID so she can pick up the packet.

it will take few days for her preferred branch to receive the packet and another few days for her to receive it on hand. that is why the embassy is now making it convenient for applicants who wished to get their visa and passport back as soon as possible. esp if the cfo is not yet done.but she can also attend the cfo without the visa or passport on hand yet. but at the end of the seminar, she has to inform someone from cfo that she would like to have a sticker on her passport on the day of her departure.but she has to inform cfo 2 days prior to her departure.

i mean without the visa on hand yet. or she can wait for her passport and visa then attend cfo so that she wont need to worry about not having the sticker yet. coz it is kind risky if she will have someone from cfo to go at the airport but suddenly no one is there.so just to make sure have the sticker done at cfo

She finally got it yesterday. 2go has no tracking system, if I call fedex and give them a number they can tell me exactly where it is. I have on one occasion had to chase down the fedex guy to get my package before bank close I thought she could do the same. It took 10 days which I expected, but I didn't expect it to sit at 2go for half of that time. Saying out for delivery in the US means it will be delivered that day, I guess there it means something else.

2GO may not have been delivering because it was Holy Week and everything is closed. The whole country pretty much shuts down for holidays.

Yes I remember too, trying to track our visa with 2GO, forget about it. The information they showed was completely wrong and useless.
