[Resolved]  Visas & Permits.com — Not permitting to withdraw visa application & denied to refund processing fees

Address:Bangalore, Karnataka, 560068
Website:www.visasandpermits.com

I contacted mrs. Aarti karwa from visa and permits - immigration consultancy of delhi branch in february'16 to check for my eligibility to migrate to singapore for career perspective. She directed me to bangalore office & assign a case worker to take up my immigration application process further after detail discussion.
Mr. Jatin virmani took up my case, explained in detail about the complete process & suggested and recommended canada pr for my profile. One of my friend who had been to australia, worked there for 3 years returned recently & started his own firm suggested me to take the ielts before applying for visa & i told my opinion to v&p consultant, but jatin somehow convinced that ielts will be very easy & can score desired band. Same day they made me to sign the contract & to pay 50% processing fees of rs. 83, 562.00 (Actually i visited v&p just for consultation & i didn't carry cheque book) i said, i will come back later with necessary document & cheque book but they are very smart & helped me to make online payment through net banking.
Later, its my responsibility to submit the required documents to start my application process, i had to visit university & got wes certificate for my educational validation & took ielts twice in two month gap & got band 6 both the times even putting 100% effort & time (Being a family man & working professional its very difficult) not eligible for canada pr visa. Jatin kept convincing me to take up ielts again to score the desired band.
Thee months because of ielts test pressure, i could not give quality time for my family & did some online research on life of immigrants in canada is nightmare. People who moved to canada has to suffer a lot to settle in canada & have to work in low profile jobs for first few years as labors. Many experienced people suggested me not ruin my happy family life chasing my dream of moving to foreign country.
Currently i have a decent salary job & leading a better life decided to withdraw my application. Informed jatin that am no more interested in proceeding with pr visa please cancel my application process & refund the money holding applicable cancellation fees.in-fact actual process will start only after submit ielts band.
V&p denied to refund processing fees paid instead suggesting to take ielts again & also said many of his clients have taken ielts more than 6-7 times & many are still taking. I don't know whether its true or not.
If they cannot refund i requested to process my application for other countries they deal & am eligible to apply. But there is no response.
I do not want to give up the hard earned money to v&p for no effort from them. They did nothing till now.
Please help

Dear Team, I would like to delete my question from your forum, since the Visa consultant agreed to refund the processing fees by seeing my reviews/feedback & complaints in online forum to protect their company reputation Regards Krishna

Even we are in a similar situation. We had approached visasandpermits for immigrating to Canada. We had already done our WES by ourselves to make our process faster even before consulting them. Later IELTS was done again by ourselves. But the band score was low. As you have mentioned they encouraged to write again. But due to some health issues in family we had to drop the plan of immigrating to Canada. So we called visasandpermits.com to inform that we have to withdraw due to health issues in family and we need the refund holding applicable service fees.But they are not ready to refund any money. Its 80k and it's hard earned money. The reason what they are giving is that it's been processed to lawyer. The question is we haven't actually got a good score to start off the process for the lawyer. They are saying they can refund a maximum of 5k.
Kindly help.
In the agreement it's written that the money will be taken over client account once the RCIC start processing our application. They hadn't done anything on the application as our scores were low and to start the processing one need good score for express entry. Visasandpermits have stated that the money is already in the RCIC. We can't get a track of that whether it's in client account or not. Nothing was assured to us. Please help.
This company is a fraud company and they have made all the clients fools and looted all the money. I have paid a hefty amount to them nearly 90, 000/- and all of sudden received an email that they are going to close the company leaving the process half-way. I am going to take legal action against the Company MD, salespersons.

I have visited Delhi Office which doesn't exist at all. With so much of efforts, I have contacted few case managers and I came to know that the management has terminated them as well without any notice, and they are on roads just like us. With the conversation with V&P ex-employee, I came to know that this fraud lady Stacy is communicating with clients through case managers emails.

Visas and Permits MD Stacy Fletcher is sitting in the UK and making the clients blind with her pre-drafted template emails. I have gathered some contact details of which I am listing here below for everyone who wants, can access here.
