Thank you for your review.

We're sorry that you feel the identity check takes time - we recommend customers read through the instructions carefully, and use one of the recommended forms of ID and have a device ready for the Live ID facial recognition check to avoid delays.

Only after the ID check is verified will the application be submitted to us.

If you have any specific feedback about the ID verification process, please do contact us.

Extremely poor service

Extremely poor service, unnecessary requirements (my diploma, my transcript and my diploma supplement say that I completed my degree in English yet they still needed a letter from the university to confirm it’s true, and then they even contact the university to verify that everything is valid) and unclear time on processing (they only tell you 20 days and they will never give you actual status on your application), incompetent management and horrible customer service, value for money is basically negative and I could go on forever.
Everyone who can just go and get the language exam, it will spare you from serious headaches and stress.

Zsófia, thank you for your comments.

We are sorry that you feel disappointed with the document requirements.

When submitting a verification request to your university, they required a hand-written authorisation by you to authorise this request. This is an internal process at the institution that we are previously unaware of, and any request for such documents will inevitably delay the process.

We advised you of this requirement, and as we understand it, the service is no longer required.

Ecctis has undertaken the appropriate steps to process your order, and keep you informed, and we are sorry that you remain dissatisfied.

Kind regards
Ecctis

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Extremely disappointing experience

Extremely disappointing experience with Ecctis.

I paid for a qualification and English language verification service required for a UK visa application, but the whole process was handled in a very frustrating and non-transparent way.

Apparently my university did not respond within the 20 working day timeframe, yet at no point during the process was I informed about the issue or asked to provide an alternative contact email or the correct department for my course. Only after the application was closed did I discover, through a phone call, that the request had simply been sent to a generic university administrative email address, with no confirmation of receipt and no further follow-up attempts.

I find it unreasonable that, despite this being a paid service, the applicant is not involved when such a simple and fixable issue arises. A quick email asking for the appropriate contact person could have avoided weeks of delays, unnecessary stress, and wasted money.

On top of that, no refund is provided even when the failure of the process depends entirely on a lack of communication between institutions.

Very rigid service, poor customer support, and little willingness to help applicants resolve issues.

We are sorry to read that you are disappointed with the service.

Thank you for responding to our request for further information.

As verification requirements vary by case, it is not always possible to disclose the means of verification, and to protect the integrity of the service we are limited in the detail we can provide.

We do wish to help customers achieve a successful outcome, and we will continue to work with you on completing the verification should the university respond to our request.

As outlined on the website, and in our Terms, payment for the service is to evaluate your qualification for eligibility, not to guarantee a successful outcome. Details of this are highlighted on our website: https://qls.ecctis.com/english-qualification-comparison

If you wish to raise a formal complaint, you may do so by referring to: https://qls.ecctis.com/complaints

I am really disappointed by the service…

I am really disappointed by the service I am receiving from Ecctis.

I first sent my QLS request on May 11th. After a week they updated me saying that they need a new translation of my certificate because they did not accept the translation directly issued from my university. I upload the new document the day after and the process restarted. Today I receive the update that the verification team needs to contact the institution to verify the certificates, but they will do that within 5 days. Furthermore the certificate I uploaded already contains a link issued by my university useful for the document verification, still they need to contact the institution...

I flagged multiple times to the customer service that I need the verification urgently because I can't take an English test for my visa near where I live and they don't care at all. I understand that they have a 20 working days timeframe, but I find this treatment and the waiting times outrageous given the amount of money spent. Now I risk that I cannot start my job because of these delays.

Thank you for your comments and for responding to our information request.

As part of the service, there are specific document requirements. The timeframe for the service commences from when we have all required documents. On occasion, we may request further documents, as we have done in your case. This does restart the timeframe, allowing sufficient time for verification of your qualification.

Verification of qualifications takes various forms, dependent on the qualification and institution.

Whilst we understand that you require completion of the service urgently, your order is due for completion by 18th June and there is not the facility to fast track or expedite the service.

We strongly advise customers to allow extra time when applying for services, to ensure risks to delays for visas are minimised.

We will provide you with a further update here, and via your QLS account once we have verified your qualification.

Kind regards
Ecctis

Take English test instead

**Update response to ECCTICS
1. Ecctis claims they weren't closed, yet their own website displayed a banner stating phone/chat lines were closed for staff training.

2. I uploaded a Testimonial (MOI)—a document used specifically for English proof. If they truly conducted an "eligibility review," they would have seen the data provided did not match the "Comparison" service they claim I ordered.

3. Ecctis claims they "do not retain fees." The fee is a service fee paid directly to them, not the Home Office.

4. They refuse to switch between two identically priced services because I was late to reach them - while they couldn't be reached by web chat / phone, and they tooks DAYS to reply e-mail.

5. Claiming a system is perfect just because you 'can't reproduce' a glitch is weak logic that ignores the actual errors experienced by users.

Conclusion: Avoid this company. **

I was meticulous with my application. I am confident I chose the English proficiency path, but the system registered the wrong service. I know I am not the only one; I’ve heard from others who experienced the exact same "glitch" where the system defaults to the wrong service track.

Despite uploading the testimonial that explicitly mentions the Medium of Instruction (MOI), Ecctis ignored this information. I tried to correct the error immediately, but they were closed for staff training for three days. By the time they opened, they claimed work had "started" and refused to switch the service or refund my cost—even though both services cost the same.

This is a predatory approach to customer service. They prioritize fee retention over fixing technical errors. To others: Avoid the stress and use Trinity College B1 instead. I got a Distinction there in 24 hours while Ecctis was still hiding behind their "No Refund" policy.

Thank you for your comments.

We are sorry to read that you are unhappy with the service which you ordered in February 2026.

We thoroughly test our systems, and cannot reproduce the system glitch that you refer to. The service description is shown both at the start of the order, and before payment, to ensure that the correct service has been selected. We also issue an order confirmation after payment.

All fees are payable directly to the Home Office, and Ecctis does not retain any fees. As outlined in our complaint response sent directly to you on 12th March, at the time your email was received on 5th March, 5 working days after your order had been submitted, your application was at the Awaiting Verification stage. This means that the eligibility review had already been completed. Under the notifications displayed on our website, portal, and Terms and Conditions, we cannot issue a refund once work on a Qualification Language Service has begun. The fee covers the eligibility review and documentation check, which were both completed correctly in your case.

No error has been made by Ecctis during the processing of your application. Therefore, no refund will be provided.

Our services have remained operational, and have not closed for staff training for the 3 days that you refer to? Our standard working days are Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays.

We urge customers to check carefully the service they are ordering, and to fully read through all information on our website before proceeding with an order.

Kind regards
Ecctis

Very bad experience

Very bad experience. I paid approximately £200 for the ECCTIS English Language verification service in good faith, expecting that reasonable and competent efforts would be made to verify my qualification within the stated timelines. Instead, I was initially informed that only a single email would be sent to the university with no meaningful follow-up process in place.

Only after I raised a formal complaint on 19 April did additional actions suddenly appear to occur, including:

movement of my application status from “Unable to Verify” to “In Progress” and subsequently “Completed”.

Do not use them. Anyone who is a confident english speaker, please directly go for SELT B1 exam which will save your money, time and mental peace.

Thank you for your comments.

In order to satisfy the UK Home Office requirements for the QLS service, Ecctis must receive confirmation of course completion in writing, by email, from the awarding institution within 20 working days for an order to be completed. The 20-working day timeframe for your order expired on 6th February and an Unable to Verify outcome was issued on your account in accordance with our terms and conditions, and Home Office regulation. Upon receiving a reply from your institution after the service timeframe had passed, we retrospectively updated your account as a gesture of goodwill.

For the avoidance of doubt, on 6th February, Ecctis completed its service delivery obligation and your application was handled correctly and in accordance with Ecctis’ service delivery obligations.

Your successful outcome details are available to view via your QLS account.

Delay in ECCTIS application

Hi,

I submitted my application on 24th April. I have been continuously checking with ECCTIS and university regarding the update. My university has not yet got any request for verification from ECCTIS and ECCTIS is saying that they have contacted university through third party. There is no contact with university yet from third party as well. I requested university to provide confirmation to ECCTIS. Once they received, got approval within 2 working days. Took almost month to complete the application.

Thank you for your comments, Aarti.

As per the update we have issued to you and the information provided by message via your QLS account, your qualification is being verified by our trusted Third Party verification company.

The completion of this process is now reliant on your university providing the appropriate information as part of this verification process.

We are unable to expedite the process, as we cannot influence how fast your university provides this information.

Your application was initially delayed as not all required documents were provided by you on your initial application, and an update to this effect was provided to you.

The service timeframe is 20 working days, from 30th April when we were in receipt of all required documents, and your application will remain open until 1st June. All updates will be issued via your QLS portal.

** update your application was completed within timeframes once confirmation was received from your institution via our verification partner **

We recommend customers allow for at least 20 working days in case of document queries or institutional delays beyond our control.

Kind regards
Ecctis

I summited an application on 15th of…

I summited an application on 15th of April thinking the 20 working days will be finished by now for me to apply for my visa, which its not yet finish.

My university waited for email from the team but did not received any as I was the one who did the job for the team. I requested both enrollment letter and letter of recommendation from my PhD university. The team then emailed me to ask me to ask for a login via parchment.com which I explained the university cannot provide it as they do not issue any transcript for a PhD qualification. So I asked my university to reply to the verification team via email, which I am waiting for a reply to confirm they have received the email, which they haven't till today.

What puzzled me was that I was the one who was doing the job for them, when they could email my university in the first place. I will not choose this service if there is another way to verify my qualification for the Home office.

Another thing, the customer live chat and call do not deem to be very useful as when I ask for any clarification, the only answer I got was they are not the verification team and cannot provide update, so I just have to wait.

Update: I have received the decision, however, unfortunately, it was too late and i have to reschedule my flight to wait for my visa process.

Thank you for your comments.

We are reliant on all relevant documents being provided as part of an application to support the application and verification process. In your case, further documents were needed from you, as your documents provided were not colour photos as outlined on our website, and further evidence of your qualification award was required.

We use a range of different verification methods, which can vary by qualification or awarding institution. Our customer support team provided correct and relevant information to support you through the process, advising how your institution would usually help support verification of qualifications via the Parchment service.

All verification updates are issued via your QLS account, and whilst our customer support team are available for general support, to protect the integrity of the service, we are not able to provide detailed information about the verification status of an application.

We note that your order was completed on 21st May, 12 working days after all required documentation was provided.

Un-ending cycle of verifications, I would rather take the english test

I am still in the process of verification but looks like I am being put through a process of secondary verifications which will takes months. The standard process of verification form awarding body is being ignored and I am being asked to verify from another third party which is a national commission. This will take at least 2 months and will need sending all my documents for their review. I have sent a feedback form but havent recieved an answer. I am now happy to withdraw my application as taking an english test will be far easy and quick but apparently they will not issue refund in any case.
Just to mention, Enic accepted the same documents for alternative qualifications but ecctis is not satisfied with that. I am now only waiting for the 20 working days deadline to hear a verdict.

My experience with ECCTIS for my QLS verification, was excellent. The team gave clear instructions, responded quickly, and the online process was straightforward and professional.

My only disappointment is that hard copy results are no longer offered. A printed certificate would be useful for my records, but the digital service itself was efficient and reliable.

Would definitely recommend ECCTIS for qualification verification.

Dear Hadiza Nuhu

Thank you for comments.

Your qualification is currently in the process of being verified, and as you correctly point out, the service is 20 working days, and is therefore not yet concluded.

We understand that applying for a Visa can be stressful, and we ask that you allow us to conclude the verification process via our trusted partner.

Verification of qualifications is subject to the cooperation of your awarding institution, and until we receive an update from them, we have no further update to provide to you.

Your order was completed on 29th April, within our 20 working day service level for this service.
