Does anyone know please of a Geographical telephone number to contact the department dealing with Work Visas at the South African High Commission in London. I have spoken to 3 people this morning and all, including the usual automated replies, referred me to the Premium Rate £1 per minute number 09065 540 798 for Visa services (FOREIGN CITIZENS)

No one from the Commission will answer emails and I resent paying £1 per minute just to make an appointment for my son to visit the South African High Commission to obtain a Work Visa.

A Public service, I don't think so!!
