Finally dtv approved London embassy, using Issa compass around 3 weeks including extra submissions. A very helpful agency would use again in future.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user shared their experience of getting their visa approved through the London embassy using the ISSA agency, which took about three weeks, including additional submissions. Other commenters noted shorter processing times, with one getting their visa in three days and another in five days, suggesting that direct applications may be quicker.
