ORIGINAL POSTER
Gutted this morning, my partner in Thailand has been turned down for a visa to visit the UK, long story and I understand this page is about Thai visa’s, however I would appreciate any advice with regards to a helpful FB page in relation to UK visas. Thank you in advance.

*** update - the reason UK immigration have given to refuse the visa for her is that me being the sponsor only has £1,200 in the account I submitted and therefore wouldn’t have enough to pay for a return air ticket and support her whilst she was in the UK, also said she only had £433 pounds in her Thai bank which wouldn’t be enough for her for the two week holiday to the UK. The application was submitted 29th April for a visit early June, it would appear you have to have lots of funds at the time of application to cover the flights etc even though advised not to purchase a flight ticket until a visa has been issued, also why would they assume I would purchase a flight for her using the money in that account, I have other debit and credit cards which I could have used, absolutely bizarre decision.
