"The staff members were highly professional. I initially interacted with the delightful Olivia, who provided excellent service."
"When the token was called I went to the counter and a staff named Olivia was there. She helped me with all the documents and sorted everything."
"Very smooth and professional experience. I applied for a Spanish Schengen visa. Only waited 10-15 minutes to be seen."
"Today I found staff at the BLS Visa Centre London to be extremely helpful. In particular Seby and Martina."
Cons:
"I'm giving them two stars because unlike some people I actually got my visa after a MONTH of waiting."

"I wish if I had a chance to rate I would have given 0. An absolute pathetic customer service."
"The Schengen tourist visa application system is broken. There are many people wanting to travel and not enough slots available to fulfill."
Customer Service
Pros:
"Few weeks ago I have visited BLS for my visa application. I really liked the customer service that they present."
"Really didn't know what to expect having read previous reviews. But the only problems we were aware of were people not bringing the correct information with them."
"Really admire the service offered by all the staff in BLS. Guy working at reception with tall height he was helping everyone."

"I had a premium appointment for myself and my wife at 11:45. We were there by 11:30. The place was almost empty, not sure why routine appointments were not available."

Cons:
"I having been trying to get an appointment to attend an interview at BLS London for the last 3 weeks but no slots available."
"The website ran out of regular appointments in the first few hours only premium appointments were left. It is extortion to charge more than flights for a VISA."
"How to have a decent experience at BLS Spain: Don’t come early! You will wait until your appointment time and still wait more afterwards."
"Terrible website and office overran by bots and shady scalpers, with the company doing nothing to stop this."
"I can't say enough good things about the outstanding service we received from Sabi during our visa application process."
"The most rudest stuff ever seen in my life. They treat people like S***t.. This lady here is unbearable they way she speaks to people is unacceptable."
