So I paid for my visa delivery yesterday around 12:30pm, and I tried to track it this morning and the number isn't working. So I called the helpline and they cant even find the number or my postcode in their system... And when I asked for the number for DX at the embassy, they gave me the embassy's helpline!! The £1.20 a min helpline at that....

I am not sure what to do and even though its day 1 out of 5 for the delivery I am slightly worried as to when its going to turn up as I need to have someone at home with my ID.

Anyone have any advice?

The invoice number you use to track wont work until a day before your delivery. I guess they only use it when they have recieved your passport from the embassy. About your post code, you need to call their customer services to change it to the right one before they get your passport back as the courier guy might have problem locating you. 0800 019 7847 is a free number for DX customer service. They will send you a text message between 3pm and say 4pm on day prior to delivery, so you might wait on that as well.

Patience is virtue needed by all, so folks always pray and be patient! Goodluck all!

I bet without an active package (Meaning, it hasn't left the embassy yet) there won't be anything in the system. I thought they sent an SMS the day before delivery? Has that changed?

This is correct. Our tracking number wasn't live until the day before it was scheduled to be delivered. I would start checking it in a few working days. If it's not in the courier's system yet, it will say the tracking and post code don't match up. If they have it in-hand, it will say it's due to be delivered on a particular date (the next day). You'll get your SMS the day before the visa is delivered. My fiance had his delivered to work, so it was no problem getting it while he was there.

We received our visa in 5 working days. It wasn't long at all. :)

Phew! You guys rock, they never told me that at the embassy, just told me I had to wait in for it with the correct ID.... :) Thank you sooo much!

They didnt even tell me about the text message or anything else about it not being able to be seen on the tracking system.... And the DX helpline didnt have a clue.... For £14 you think they would tell you a lot more!

Did those of you who provided DX with a mobile # all get a text message the day before delivery? As yet I've not received my passport back (it's only the 5th working day today so not concerned) and need to make sure somebody is home to receive it when it finally does arrive. Online tracking doesn't work so I guess the embassy haven't finished with my passport yet.

Do you just get offered the one standard delivery option? Because I'd like to pay extra for faster delivery if that's an option...

I don't think you can get it delivered faster. You can choose a slot, such as before noon or before 10am but you can't pick a day.
