In January my husband and I decided we would like to go to Canada we decided to contact professionals which lead us to Global Visas, our consultant was Nozipho van Jaarsveld, we had a telecom with her to discuss whether we are good candidates to apply for a student permit. We had a strong case. After having a consultation we were told which documents to get. We requested and collected the documents ourselves.We were asked to pay R20 000 for their services. On their document it states that if you don’t get your visa due to their negligence they will refund you. We asked Nozipho whether a DUI in 2005 would cause a visa refusal, she said no, it is longer than 5 years. We met with her once to make sure she had all the correct documents, we missed a couple and had to return with the rest. Trying to get hold of your case manager is a task in itself, they are almost never available, I called on the 8th of August to find out how our application was going, only to find out that Nozipho was on two weeks holiday, no one bothered to advise us of this. 6 weeks later, we were told that our visas were refused due to my husband being criminally inadmissible on account of the DUI. Now, I would think, knowing the circumstances and working on these cases on a daily basis, she would have requested us to do a criminal rehabilitation first, seeing as they are the professionals, surely they should know this. We didn’t even know what the process for the criminal rehabilitation was let alone that the process of rehabilitation could take more than a year. I later found this out on a website. Throughout the entire process, I asked whether she thought everything would be okay and she continually told us we had a very strong case. I believe the visa was refused due to her negligence. I have sent in a request for refund and was told the process could take up to 30 working days and I would not receive the full refund because they have already worked on our file. What warrants the work for R20 000 really? Telling us which documents to get? R300 courier fee to the CIC, replying to emails, at most 10 phone calls (If you don’t call them and leave a message they will never call you and take days to call you back, so you have to call them daily)? Packing it nicely into an envelope and sending it to the Canadian High Commission? This is unprofessional and unacceptable. Nozipho gave us the incorrect information, causing us to lose our visas, Global Visas are just money hungry and willing to lie to their clients to get the sale. I am certainly not going to leave the matter here. I received an email from them stating that we never told them my husband had a DUI, which is a complete and utter lie, Nozipho is a liar! They are lying, dirty, stealing ###. The employees should be ashamed of themselves. They have now changed their name to IXP Visas - not dodgy at all! STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.

Hi I am just checking if you got your money back as I was scammed too.
I started with them sometime in February last year, I was so busy at work that I did not have time to run a check on them. I told them I was not ready now that later I would contact them for their services, soon as I rounded up on the project at hand. They said no problem and advised me to leave my credit card details with them via phone call. they made me to divulge all my credit cards details and an hour later, I just started getting an alert from my bank that my account has been debited hugely. I quickly alert them to reverse the transaction and return my money into my account, only for the to tell me to do a mail that I made a mistake to transact the business and that I want to reverse the transaction. Ever since that day I have sent several mails to them without a response and their phone contacts too are not going through anymore. To all and sundries, beware of them, they ill winds that blows nobody good.
Dont trust IXP visa service UK and a person called Ibrahim Harkwath. He will talk nicely first with company and so many rules but will provide false document with offer letter which has spelling mistakes, then courier fastway uk, courier consulant all are false. Everytime when you african person will answer, uk, india, canada, everyone all african. They will take lot of money in usd like [protected] dollars and will tell stories. Dont trust IXP Visa service UK and espically ibrahim harwarkth he will give you all numbers which never answer and all false documents and i m vicitim and already i checked with embasssy and online which never approved. IXP visa is same Global visa, now brigtvisas and IXP etc.
Guys, IXP Visas Dubai is a FRAUD. Be careful to give any amount of money to them as down payment for assessment fee. Don't be gullible to their promises because they are processing for nothing at all. They have been operating for more than five years already but none of their applicants have gotten a job because they are a BIG FRAUDSTERS.

I'm a single working nurse in South Africa, I'm working hard for the money that I get, I can't just through money around. I paid the full amount off R25 500-00 in the account off IXP visas for work opportunities in Canada. I started to apply the 4/2014, up till now nothing happen, NO Work for me as enrolled/ staff nurse in any country. I did explain to Duncan from the beginning that I don't have a diploma as registered nurse, ONLY a certificate as staff/ enrolled nurse. He then said I still do have a good change for work as that I worked in New Zealand and Australia before.I send my cv to all the work sites the case manager by the name off Carol Ford then I got a new one by the name off Ricky requested me to do? I phoned Duncan also a few times to please refund my money, I e mailed to Duncan a few times no respond from anyone from October 2014.
I paid the full amount please people and I want my money back. I got accounts to pay that I put on hold at the time when you wanted me to pay you for work in Canada, that I didn't get. No as in this month off January 2015 I need to pay my depths please. I do have proof off my payments from my bank account.

Case number 3476009
Admittedly, i am in the state of confusion whether i am going to pay IXP Visas in order for them to process my application for working permit.At first, i was so glad that a filipino agent called me and explain everything about IXP.I am frustrated to do everything just to go to canada that's why i apply every opportunity/immigration consultants i saw online.Upon reading all these complaints i am now decide not to pursue my application with IXP Visas for they are requiring me to pay 3000SR. In God's perfect time i can find other ways to go to canada.
i still don't know why this people activities have not been stop . this people are defrauding people of there hard earn money and there have been series of complain about them . but what surprise me most is that authority never arrest them .they are walking on the street freely and keep changing the name of their company looking for the next victim . To me this is not the best . Had it been that the owner of the company is from africa or asia the hell would have been let loose . But this is a british man, nobody seem to be care about the victim agitation . the man in question need to face international court and should be brought to justice . i as a person want to see want british government will do about this man . thanks
Thanks GOD I been saved, I was going to put my case for job in Canada, and the person Mr. Jhermo Continously Calling me to put my case, they promised me to have my job done with in 2 months I was supposed to meet them tomorrow and I just wanted to have their contact numbers, on google suggestion it appeared IXP Scams, I visited these pages and realised They are making Fraud... well My suggestion for all of those who victimized should raise complain to Dubai Authorities together in one go so the action may be taken against them and no further person can be victimized...
Hi everyone,
IXP visas is a fraud company they stole 2500 pounds from me I only got a cv from them for 2500 pounds.My processing started Dec 2013.After my payment finished I didn't get even a phone call from them . It's such a shame the company still running in the UK. Please don't promote suche these companies and I hope nobody will survive infront of god who does suchof these stealing.
@Ralphy_
I have had the very same experience with them. I asked the so called Launch immigration if they could give me any details for IXP and have been told that they don't hold any details and cannot do anything apart from adding me to their refund list. Does anyone know if we can make a claim against IXP for the refund?
@ns.singh - as a suggestion it is a good idea to contact your bank and change your account details. I paid £400 to IP VISAS on 7 July, then I contacted them on 8 July to inform them I no longer wanted to use their services. My emails were then ignored and phone calls not returned. I did eventually get through to someone who informed me my money would be refunded at the end of July. It hasn't been!
Then I received an email from IP Visas stating my next payment was due however they would make it easy for me and deduct the money from my account. Fortunately I had already changed my bank details. Only through this complaints board was I made aware of the company name change. I managed to get through to Launch Immigration and have been told my name is 'on a list' for someone to contact me. I don't think I will see my money again and would like to warn you not to give them any more of your money.
Hi I have recently applied for Canada visa through ixp visas I have paid them 1000GBP so far and things are still fine with my case but i am really afraid after reading about all these frauds that they are doing. I had asked them to charge me the second instalment of 500GBP on 29th august and the case worker even agreed to it but they still took the money from my account without asking me. I do not want to end up like others I really want to take my case back and want my money back. Please can you advice if there is any chance of getting my money back.
They changed their names to Launch Immigration Ltd.
12th Floor
The Broadgate Tower
20 Primrose Street
London
EC2A 2EW
First they were Global visas, then they changed to IXP visas and also IP visas, now they are called Launch Immigration Ltd.
Avoid these liars, they take as much as they can from innocent people and closed down legally so you can't take your money back from them.
Their staff are all low life ### who will get what karma gives back to them. They are the reason why people like Liam Clifford can get away with doing this and live a comfortable life. They are sleazy sales people only after one thing... your money.
Please sought help from your local embassy, no matter how busy they are, don't fall for their lies and entrapment.
My husband and I were about to work with IXP Visas also. We were due to make a payment this week but received a call today explaining that IXP Visas had gone into liquidation and a company called Launch Immigration were taking over all of IXP Visas clients. They explained that they were an independent company which they are not, as there address is the same as IXP Visa's in London. Launch Immigration don't even have a website yet they were only established at the end of July - everything like I mentioned previously address and contact numbers are the same as IXP Visas.
We are lucky to have no lost any money like most others but we wanted to warn people of Launch Immigration also as they are not what they claim to be, avoid at all costs call the Austrailian immigration on [protected] for honest and helpful advice hope this review helps
I WAS ABOUT TO WORK WITH THESE PEOPLE, THE MOMENT THEY STARTED CALLING ME SOMETHING REGISTERED AT THE BACK OF MY HEAD THAT THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM. THEY GUY I SPOKE TO WAS QUICK TO TELL ME THAT THE GUARANTEE OF ME HAVING A VISA IMMEDIATELY WAS 99%.
If you look at all the websites for Globalvisas, IXPvisas and IPvisas they are all the same. They all carry the "logo" of the OISC which seems to be the governing body of Immigration to the UK. Companies have to be registered if they are based in the UK and are immigration advisers. I emailed OISC and received no confirmation that they have any of these companies registered with them even though they claim to have offices in the UK. Look up OISC.homeoffice.gov.uk for registered immigration companies, I looked through all the registered companies and did not find these three registered.
Luckily I haven't paid over any cash and will be going directly to the embassy for the application forms.
I was also cheated by these people KNOWN AS GLOBAL VISAS, IXP VISAS AND NOW IP VISAS, they stole from me £2500 for immigration to Australia.
For this I think that the best way to reclaim our stolen money is making contact with each other and make common complaint against these people. My e-mail is : marian_rachev@mail.bg
Australian immigration government is very interested in these scams!
It is now 18 months since we paid our money (To what was Global Visas) for a Canadian Visa. At the time we agreed on a strategy which was started and to be fair, half of this strategy has been achieved, (although this resulted in exactly the same visa as I would be entitled to if I fronted at a Canadian border post). Then the first consultant left. Since then I have had several new consultants and each one has required several weeks, some of them a couple of months, to get familiar with the case. Furthermore, with each new consultant the "plan" changes, apparently without any regard to the original strategy.
This company has done NOTHING on my case for the last 12 months. When I finally expressed my frustration at the lack of progress and demanded a refund, I received a threatening letter that more funds were due if I terminated with them. (Ironically they also threatened to start work on my case again!)
This company appears to have a long record of taking money, delivering very little and then going back on what they promised.
Do not use these people, you WILL lose your money and have to start again like I am required to.
Please please please keep away from this dodgy company . I have lost £1800 and i was told if my case was unsuccesful i would only lose the deposit . Which would have been £600 . They closed my case a now i can, t get through by phone and my emails gets returned . So please spread the news that this is 1 dodgy company
They Took £500 from me and then didn't provide me any service. They told me I dont have to pay more then £2000 but after started telling me that I have to pay so many different things. and then started shouting on me on call... They just want to stole money no servicess...
I CANNOT urge anyone enough to stay away from this corrupt, unprofessional and scamming company. My partner and myself have had nothing but grief from them. At first they cannot do enough for you and once you have paid the money, the phone calls stop, the emails stop, they swerve questions. They have actually done NOTHING for me so far and I have had my case open with them for 9 months. All my caseworker has done is send me a few links and forms to fill in, I have literally had to do everything else, they company is useless. They have a sticking attitude and I have had to swap my useless caseworker to another complete waste of oxygen! I am frustrated, angry and sick to death of this God forsaken phoney company! My first caseworker changed her name three times as has the company in the 9 month I have been working with them (well me doing the work, them taking my money for nothing). Seriously, do it without them and go directly to the government of your chosen company, the only reason I chose this route was because I needed the help as I no longer live in the UK, I live in the UAE and thought they might help lighten the load! Huh, what a fool I was. Do it all yourself, you do with this company anyway and you will save yourself 3.500 GBP! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY...KNOWN AS GLOBAL VISAS, IXP VISAS AND NOW IP VISAS!
Its been more than six months since my application was lodged for Australian visa with a delivery time of 8-10 weeks maximum, but unfortunately no update yet! I had regular calls from IXP until I paid my fees fully and after that its really getting difficult to get a solid answers. Everyone keeps saying we are following . . . but for how long God only knows. This is so frustrating.
i am a victim of this bad organization called IXPvisaa . They are really scam . I paid them $2500 US dollars on four time instalment payment of $625 US dollars each . They stopped replying my mail immedatly i completed my payment .They closed my profile on there web site .
My username on there web which is "login.globalvisas.com ' is adeniyiadebowale and my password is NRCY6BKU .
I will advice any potential victim to stay away from this evil doer .
Thanks
This company is an absolute disgrace. I advise everyone to stay away from them. They tell lies and make things up as they go along. We applied for visas to Australia in April 2012 and have found our they havent filed one piece of paperwork yet. We paid £2400.

i have applied tourist visa for my parents and hand over all the paper work there weeks ago but havnt heard anything yet. so i decide to visit their office in Sydney and found they have locked their office. no one is there.
FRAUD !
these people are definitely FRAUDS. Initially I started conversation with lady called Berta. Later file was given to Jamie saying that she is client relationship officer. Then it was further passed to Christine saying that Jamie is busy with other cases. Excuse me?
finally i left a negative feedback on their website and was approached by lady called Jennie who claimed herself to be some kind of manager. She assured me improved services within 4 weeks and assigned Christine again to take over and start case from scratch. From scratch ... again ... why ? Because both Jennie and Christine were new to my case.
I asked her for refund policy. And was asked to give them another chance to provide services. No gaurantee for refund anyhow. I wanted to speak to Jennie's boss, and was not surprised to discover she is the decision making person.
i have been calling all the numbers provided for last 2 weeks, they either go to VOICEMAIL or just KEEP YOU WAITING. i have not been able to speak to anyone since then. 4 weeks deadline was crossed a month ago.
I ended up paying AUD 1500 in 2 installments. Its not about losing money ... is about losing HARD EARNED MONEY from your savings.
These ### are only after your money..None of their claims are correct. Please everyone keep this company out of your dealings..Never trust them
