    Default Visa consultant -RECOMMENDATION - PLEASE HELP

    Hello,
    I am new to this forum, and hoping some of you can assist me.
    I am in the process of trying to relocate my family to Bali in 2012. As I am sure you are not surprised my no.1 pain is Visa. I need KITAS for my husband & I and my two little kids so they can go to international school.

    I am in consultation with a immigration/Visa agency and are now at the stage of handing over money and really need to be sure of their legitamacy before I do that. They are becoming alittle impatient now in regards to this and say they don't have many spots left on their CO.

    I don't want to publicise their name because I really do hope all is as it seems.(can email anyone that wants to know)

    Do any of you recommend any agencies? or have personally been through this process with an agency?

    Any advice, direction would be wonderful

    Why would they be impatient? You are the customer and that would make me a little concerned. One suggestion would be to pay their fee after you get your passport back with your visa.

    Yes, definitely pay after.

    Some reputable agencies that I and other friends have used:

    Bali Ide
    Mas Travel
    Bali Mode

    Search Google for their contact details.

    Thanks for these, I will check them out. I am hoping they can act as sponsor also.
    Somehow I feel payment after is not going to be acceptable to these guys!!

    Oh yeah, I forgot about soontobeexpat's problem with Bali Mode. kat love, see this thread:

    http://balipod.com/bali-visa-questions-answers-f42/bali-mode-sriwijaya-kuta-t6205.html

    But, to give them credit, they did set up a PMA, kitas, work permit, exit permit and business licenses for another friend with a boat-building business and he was more than happy with the service.
