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

With good instructions from the cruse…

With good instructions from the cruse line I was able to navigate the TDS system. A bit more help from TDS site would have been nice.

Everything was OF and service was quick (though a bit expensive).

Very clear and easy to use!

Everything was very quick and easy to use. It was also easy to understand what I needed to send and when. I had a personal contact I could go to as well.

I did not feel advised well . . .

I did not feel advised well by the Travel Doc reps. They did not understand the regulations or complexities of the country to which I was applying and thus the process was waylaid and I was denied. They also forced the issue of a new passport with the notion that I did not have a full unused page for the visa. This precipitated the "need" for a two process of getting a new passport - which was costly. When my old passport was returned there were 3 clear pages.

My Travel Document Systems…

My Travel Document Systems representative was John Dinn. He phoned me the day after my overnight delivery to let me know my documents were successfully received. One MAJOR complaint: he incessantly interrupted me and/or talked over me. I literally pleaded with him at one point, "Sir, please, may I speak? May I speak?" but no, he continued to steamroll right over me. I urge Mr. Dinn to talk WITH his customers more and speak AT them less. I knocked off one star for this alone.
I feel obliged to add that Mr. Dinn's tone of voice and the content of what he was trying to convey to me was entirely appropriate and he was sharing essential information with me.
Otherwise, no complaints with TDS--they are fine and reputable.
