Scam

Their site is designed to look like an official UK government service — Union Jack, "UK ETA Service", "Authorisation Services". It is not. It's a private company registered in Delaware.
The real UK ETA costs £20 on gov.uk. It takes 10 minutes and you can do it yourself.
They showed me 145.00 GBP and my bank was charged 195.00 USD. For the exact same thing.
And when I complained, they replied in writing: "Your payment is failed so we do not have a valid application with us." The payment did not fail. It is right there on my bank statement.
So they overcharge you, then deny they charged you at all.
They also advertise a WhatsApp support number on their site. It doesn't exist.
Go to UK official site. Don't pay these people.

This is a fraudulent company that is not delivering what they promise

This is a fraudulent company that is cheating you with an incorrect price at the start of the process and then charging ten times the cost for a UK ETA. They say it's a two-year ETA, but then when you get the email with the ETA, it's only for six months, if the ETA is valid at all. I had to block my credit card after trying to use their service. Stay miles away from this fraudulent company.

This is a scam

This is a scam. Do not order a visa unless it is via the UK Government website. £154 was removed from my account for a £20 visa which I was ordering for my daughter, which I did not receive. I am disputing this payment with my bank at the moment and getting nowhere.
