Greetings! I am on the process of my application to Maplin Electronics through UK BA Border Agency. I just wanted to know how much is the processing and stamping fee and if I need to send this fee to the person named Robinson Paul Ashley. Is he really connected with your company? Hoping for your immediate response regarding this matter as the payment needs to be send within 48 hours. Thank you very much.
CHECK DIRECTLY WITH THE COMPANY BEFORE PAYING ANY MONEY. CALL THE COMPANY OR WRITE TO THE HR DEPT. COULD BE A SCAM, SO CHECK IT OUT!
