Portugal Visa Services

I contacted this 鈥渃ompany鈥� as they claim to turn D7 around in 15 days? They say they check over your paperwork and make sure it is correct book the appointment for you at VFS (which you attend yourself) sooner than you would be able to get it and in 15 days you will have your D7 visa?

Does anyone know if this is correct. I enquired and have an e mail address? I asked about the fee and it was very low less than 鈧�300. The guys name is Jerry?

How can this organisation lay claim to getting an appointment so quickly and moreover such a quick turnaround?

if this is bonafide it is a wonderful service but it seems to be quite low key?

Thoughts?

Hi, yes Portugal Visa Service, arranged 2 X D7 / Long Stay Appointments with VFS Global. We tried for a week to get an appointment but we were unable to get anything due to getting on the VFS Global website to get an appointment, when we got an appointment we were unable to complete as the appointment disappeared when he went to pay. The advisor at the the VFS Global appointment said it will take up to 4 to 8 weeks the D7 Visa. Our appointment was on the 13th of November and we are still waiting for the D7, we were happy to get the appointment initially through Portugal Visa Service and they were quick to reply to any queries.

I couldn't find a website with that exact name, but found two almost identical that use the same contact email.聽 Neither of them mention D7 visa specifically.聽 Please post the www.聽 To be honest sounds a bit dodgy.

@Toshiro123 I have e mails from a guy called jerry. My gut聽 feeling is it鈥檚 odd. Claiming to have access to appointments sooner than they are available on vfs website and also claiming D7 can be received with 15 days. Says you send docs online version they advise if they are correct they book a very soon appointment for you and claim you walk away with your visa in 15 days. Sounds ideal but also thought maybe a scam.
