Avoid at All Costs – Incompetent and Unprofessional I deeply regret using this firm for my immigration case. From start to finish, they were disorganized, unresponsive, and demonstrated a shocking lack of professionalism. They made costly errors, failed to meet promised deadlines, and did not provide clear guidance or support during an already stressful process. What’s worse, despite their poor service, they have yet to process my refund—six months after it was promised. Multiple follow-ups have been met with excuses and delays. It’s clear this firm cares more about collecting fees than actually helping their clients. If you value your time, money, and peace of mind, please look elsewhere. This was an expensive mistake that I hope others can avoid.

I had a very bad and bitter experience with IAS, they offered me the most difficult and impossible visa in the counseling process and they acted very irresponsibly in the process of handling and supporting my case and my case only cost me a lot of money without any results. I don't think it's wrong to connect outsiders with this company because they know their customers don't have access to them. I am in Iran and my case did not reach any result. The person in charge of my case was Mr. Deepak and even their supervisor Mrs. Rachel did not care about my protests and calls.

Please stop giving false hopes and ghosting your candidates. It is unprofessional and can be utterly disappointing for those who were initially excited for the role.

VERY UNHELPFUL! WASTE OF MONEY! If I had the option of giving no stars I would, not even worth 1 star. They will offer you a service, make you pay and not provide you the service they offered. Very unprofessional and a waste of time and money!

Price was too high for the service provided paid £200 for 30minutes with advisor who told me what I could've found myself by googling. Advisor was also not friendly and almost felt like she didnt want to be there...

the company is running one big fraud, they are scamming you for money with the promise that they will take care of your dispute and will assist you step by step in resolving your case, as soon as they receive the transfer, contact with the company ends, and when you call, they explain the procedures and the like dragging out time and doing nothing. I tried to do something about my case for 3 months and they kept having other problems, so I gave up and for the next 3 months I haven't been able to ask for a refund.

I requested an initial meeting with IAS in August due to a complex immigration application for my Thai wife to join me in the UK. We had already gone many routes but felt it almost impossible due to financial requirements. During our meeting I included my family and we discussed with Charlene philips, she indicated there was special circumstances in which we could apply. This gave us hope and she wrote out an action plan for my family to be able to sponsor in time for the baby to come to UK. This one a one of meeting and persuaded us to go for their service as it sounded hopeful! Even in time for Christmas. As soon as I paid for the immigration service we had a new advisor which completely swapped what was said. She stated it could not be done through sponsorship and had to be held in the account for 6 months. She advised heavily against the plan that we were sold on and said to go normal route. (Which is impossible due to the birth of our child being less than 6 months) Several months later I have requested a subject access request in this matter however they supplied everything except the initial meeting which was my reasoning for SAR. I am still waiting for a full SAR to be provided. Very disappointed that this can be done by what is a legal agency. I hope they can clean up their act and provide the correct service and documents. This has caused so many complications and heart ache to trust a company and be left in this situation. Whilst they know we can't afford the financial requirements they still took 650 pounds of our money.

She was 20 minutes late to the call and didn't tell us she was running late. I paid over $200.00 for a short meeting. Our meeting was cut short because she was running late to her next one. She never really answered my emails. I had to send her multiple follow ups. The only time they reached back out to me, (called me three times) was to send the payment, but none of my questions were answered first. Thats when I thought it was a huge red flag, so I looked online at the company and the reviews were not good on reddit and other websites were 1 star telling not to book with this company and a huge waste of money.

I’d recommend you stay away. I was told it would take around 6 months to get a Portuguese residency visa, we are 8 months in and it is months away. They were difficult to deal with, would never answer the question you asked and slow whilst applying for the visa. Since then they havent once chased the government and now say the delay is 15 months. They work with a developer called Mercan, their sister company about whom I have nothing positive. Find another company to work with.

I had a call with their lawyer in February, and received a written summary of that call. I had follow up questions related to her call summary - AND EMAILED HER 3 TIMES - and NEVER HEARD BACK. IAS is a FRAUD. A complete waste of $$$. I want a refund.

Been in Ireland over a month now. Sounded so easy to get set up over here. I have been waiting over a month and still waiting to get my visa activated. Been waiting over a month for my bank card to arrive. Haven’t received a appointment for a pps number. If I new it were this hard to get set up I wouldn’t have bothered
