They sat on Visa documents 4 days after payment confirmation. Then an aggressive salesman calls me demanding an additional $300 immediate payment over the previous payment to expedite Visa. He then... See more

I’ve used TDS for many years. Never a problem with TDS, but I wish they gave me a return option other than FedEx. FedEx has messed me up several times. Once when FedEx messed up, it wasn’t serious,... See more

We had major problems getting our visa for Nigeria. This isn't the fault of TDS, but the communication has been very poor. We put in the initial documents in June and have not yet received the visa... See more

I've been using TDS for about 15 years now and they've always been extremely helpful and fast. I used other services before them with mixed results. Since using TDS I haven't wanted to use any other visa service.

Awkward UK Visa Process Made Simpler

I have been through the visa process with the UK before - on my own - and I found the process to be awkward. The process was still awkward, but TDS communicated well and help clear up confusion with the process whenever it arose

I received my passport much easier than I thought I would. The process was very easy.

The only reason why I knocked off a star was because when I called asking for clarification on their instructions, I spoke to 2 different people who I had to repeatedly tell I did not need a Visa and I never mentioned a Visa. Both answered the phone with a "yeah?", spoke over me before I even got my question out and gave me wrong information because they kept interrupting me before I completed a question. The most important part of communication is listening.

Dealing with incompetent staff!

The main problem was at the start of my contact with your staff on phone, when i was asking about the Requirements. I even asked about the need for notarizing the Application form, based on MY last year’s Experience. i was told no need. So i had to repeat the entire application process, and a second shipment of forms to NYC. Make sure staff really know the requirements, or find out before giving false directions. It took one week longer, & a second FEDEX shipment, apart from filling the whole application a second time. Dealing with Frances later in the process was easier and more reassuring.

TDS provided excellent service

TDS provided excellent service. I used the helpline to clarify some issues and they gave me correct advice which facilitated a smooth process. I received my new passport in less than 2 weeks. I am extremely happy with rhis service.

Great technology and customer service

Great technology and website to take you through the process to easily set up your account. Got passports within a week after delivering the necessary forms. Constant email correspondence on the order and where it stood in the process.

Quick turnaround- excellent service

I needed a Chinese tourist visa very quickly and over the Thanksgiving holiday. I dropped off my passport at the Washington DC office on Monday of Thanksgiving week and had it back by Friday morning after Thanksgiving. I couldn’t be happier with the service TDS provided.
