My UK application for a partner visa cost myself and my partner £149. In Australia (I am an Aus citizen) it would cost $7,700 (£4,280). My UK application took 3 weeks. In Australia, 24 month processing time. @ScottMorrisonMP consider that when looking at pro growth policies?

@ScottMorrisonMP given the Aus economy is going to now suffer from reduced migration, perhaps it’s time to sort out the woefully inadequate partner visa situation to encourage more Aus citizens and their partners to return to Aus to work and live? See tweets below for the problem

@ScottMorrisonMP see below for the problem. Many Aus citizens will simply not move move home because of the time, stress and money it takes to relocate with their wife/husband/partner. The Aus economy now more than ever will need migration, including the contribution of its own.

2/3 Lets compare with @AusGov process: My UK application cost myself and my partner £149. In Australia (I am an Aus citizen) it would cost $7,700 (£4,280). My UK application took 3 weeks. In Australia, 24 month processing time.

1/3 Pleased to say my application for an EEA Residency Card was successful, which gifts me work rights in the UK. I needed to prove my relationship was "enduring" for "de facto status". Compiling the evidence took some time but it took less than three weeks to be approved.

@NOWTV really needs to up its game on “recently added”, you really have nothing on Prime or Netflix right now and I’m starting to think it’s a waste...

A JW Elder has been sentenced to 9 years in prison for sexual assault. Partner Alan Collins asks, "Given the seriousness of the offence, why did the Jehovah's Witnesses still refuse to assist the authorities?" @abuse_justice bit.ly/2z1idIB

Also, why do your reissued cancelled tickets say “unable to waitlist” instead of “cancelled”? Why can’t you just be clear during this time? It doesn’t help your customers at all to be unclear.

I’ve never received a document from you with the purchase price, notwithstanding any modification to the booking. You’re not refunding for cancelled flights, just giving vouchers so I need to put in my insurance claim ASAP or it might be construed as delay.
KLM@KLM

@SamuelJBarker >> but we will come back to you in time for your trip. Regarding your invoice: we cannot send you automatically these from our booking system due to the modifications in your booking. We have to make these up manually which can take a while. Thank you for your understanding.

Also @KLM cancelled my flights to Costa Rica (didn't notify me... fine, I was checking) but they have bizarrely rebooked me on just one leg, return from Atlanta to London but no other legs! How does that make sense?

My credit card statement is charged for the flights direct by @KLM and I need an invoice for that transaction to submit my insurance claim, but nothing provided by @KLM actually notes the price paid, just saying For Fait (promotional fare). No help at all from @KLM

@KLM @KLM_UK I have given you all the details in writing via every single platform you have available but only receive an automated response. Rather than responding to my public tweet with false information why don't you actually deal with my direct enquiry and solve it?
Samuel Barker@SamuelJBarker

@KLM It does not help. I have done this and it says "Unfortunately it is not possible to request an invoice" and directs me to my travel agent, which I do not have - I booked direct. This is why I am spending so much time trying to get someone from your company to deal with this.
