Filling online application form
Hi,
I'm applying for CSV and while filling the application form I'm stuck at maintenance and deportation section. Could you please help me out with the details to fill.



Thanks & Regards.

Utterly poor service
The Mumbai South African Consulate is one of the worst consulate I have come across so far.
The problems we face are
1. You cannot call them before 2-3 pm
2. Even if you are lucky and get thru the visa section is totally unhelpful.
3. Even before you start your talk they just disconnect on your face and one ends up talking to a blank call
4. Even US and UK consulate grants visas within 5 working days but the South African Consulate will take more than 15-20 days for processing a visa.
5. They have only one service whereas almost all other Consulates have express services where urgent visas can be processed with payment of additional fees.
6. Whenever you call the standard reply you get is " The Consul General is out of Station"
7. Yes the staff is very very very very rude as if only they are working and people in other offices are a bunch of fools.

Also I have seen so many complaints, I wonder does any body takes action against this. Its only harming the reputation of the Consulate.

Worst Service
I am a South African citizen, I have never been more disgusted at the service received by the South African consulate general in Mumbai.. Firstly they don't advise you of the proper requirements when you request.. My hubby and I were called a bunch of liars for no reason.. We had to travel back and fort from Mumbai to Ahmedabad 6 times just because they required a different thing each time..To top it of we were told that our English was not proper by the lady behind the counter who was so rude she was literally yelling at us. They are the most unhelpful bunch of people working for the South African consulate in Mumbai.. I will never recommend anyone to them. Utterly disappointed with the level of service. The workers act as if they are doing us a favour by processing applications. When they don't realise these applications are peoples lives.. Bunch of high headed dumb asses.Some of them need to be sacked..
