My appointment was scheduled for July 13th (lucky 13) at 9:00am. At 7:45 I checked my phone in at Gould's Pharmacy for £3.00 and got 2 passport photos done for £5.00 as the ones I had were over 6 months old. I then walked over to the Embassy and got in line at 7:50. I showed my interview letter to the person out front and then walked over to a security hut where I placed all my pocket items like my wallet, keys, change, fags, lighter and watch into a plastic baggie to go through the x-ray machine. Also I removed my belt. Best to do all this ahead of time as there were two people in front of me fumbling with their things and cause I had my stuff ready they let me pass through first 
I then entered the embassy where a woman sat at a desk took my interview letter and my MRV receipt off me to look at and then she put a sticker with my number on it. My number was i911 and I noticed the 911 part right away O.o)) I then went up some stairs, through a huge ... read complete review

My interview was on monday July 11th at 9am. I have a friend who doesn't live far from London so I stayed at his house for the weekend.
I got into London at about 7am and had a mooch around for a while. By 8:30 I'd stored my phone and mp3 player at Gould's pharmacy and was in the embassy queue. I got into the embassy at about 9am. Looking back, it might have been better to get in the queue earlier than I did.
Once I was inside. I sat down and looked at the screens. Every few seconds people wanting non-immigrant visas were being called up, and about every 5-10 minutes they called up someone wanting an immigrant visa. I knew I was going to be there for a while.
After about 2 hours they called me up. The woman at the window took my fingerprints and asked me for my documents. She took my passport, I-134, birth certificate, police record, MRV fee receipt and 2 photos. I asked her if she said 2 or 3 and she confirmed she just wanted 2 of them. The... read complete review

My appointment was for 8am. I arrived the Embassy for 6.45am and I am very glad I did! I was 6th in line and by the time the Embassy started processing people to enter (approx 7.35am) there were about 80 people in the queue. I handed my interview letter over to the first Embassy employee, she checked it against her list and sent me to a lady standing outside the little X-ray security hut. She checked my passport & interview letter before sending me into the security hut. They took my bag and folder, scanned it and sent me onwards - "Follow the arrows!" I was told. I went around the building and entered through a side door, went to reception, handed over my interview letter again and it had a big sticker slapped on it with a number (I-901). I was told to go sit in the waiting room up the stairs and wait for my number to be called.
Everyone else had N-# and it got to N6 before my I-901 was called. They seem to have a certain window dedicated to non-N numbers, but expect ab... read complete review

stayed at the Marble arch inn which is just a short walk from the embassy, only 10 minutes and really easy to get to from the underground. Arrived at the embassy at 7am and there was a few people already waiting. First thing to do is check appointment letter and then remove watches and belts and wait in the second line, this was very quick. Went through security and then into the embassy. Collect ticket with your number on it and wait in the large room.
Only a short wait, only 10 - 15 minutes then my number was called so with sweaty hands and knocking knees I had my first interview. This lasted for 45 minutes and was mainly going through all the paperwork and giving orginal documents. This was done by an English woman who then said that a consulate officer would review it all and then I would be called to a different window and to keep checking the screens.
I then had an hour and a half wait, where I spoke to GOD and any body else who I thought would help. My number w... read complete review
