Fair Play for Foreign Experts!
Dear trust7 members,
after getting bad news from many friends, employees and other experts who applied for spouse or vistor visa for their relatives and/or friends, where the German Embassy and Consulate rejecting the visa, I think it is time to do something against it!
Although I am a German and I have no relatives abroad, I was also affected by this not acceptable behavior. I lost 2 Indian engineers because their spouses did not get a simple visitor visa, although I sponsored the visit, send the Formal Obligation Letter and wrote individual letters to assure that my company guarantees the return of the visitors. This happened in Chennai.
I was really angry about this, but to lazy to fight. But the message from 'Roundtheclock' ...
http://www.trust7....rman_embassy_in_india
aroused my old 'Fighting Spirit' 
I set up a special mail address:
fairplay at trust7 dot com
and I ask you to send supporting mails to this address.
It is up to you if you want to tell your story or if you just want to write something like... I support this action!
It is also up to you if you write your full name and address or if you just send the mail without signature.
I will also send a mail to all trust7 members early next week and as soon as we have enough supporters, I will contact the media and try to get their interest.
Well, this should be enough for the beginning, the mail address is ready and I am very curious about your reactions!
Viele Grüße aus Berlin

Hi Detlef,
On one side: great to have you back! On the other side, it is sad that it is because of this sort of issues.
You have spent years helping us to find our way in Germany, and seems the struggle is still on. So if you feel like organizing something like back in 2002, I would say: let's do it! 
I will also write to the email address you created.
Looking forward to being able to help!
Cheers,
Sudaca.

Dear t7 members,
thanks for all your supporting mails! I hope you will understand that I can not answer each message individual.
I am thankful for many useful tips and I was deeply shocked by some of your stories!
I will contact newspapers, magazines and TV stations. I still have many contacts from our activities in the past, but if some of you have their own contacts, just tell them about our forum and about our campaign.
Although we started this because of Indian cases I want to state again, that this campaign is for all nationalities and for all German Embassy!
Do not stop to tell your stories here in the forum, just start a new topic and tell us what happened to you or your relatives/friends.
Viele Grüße aus Berlin

Hi Detlef,
Thanks for this website and personally you for extending still help we wanted !!! . It's a great campaign , I myself or my family havent faced any problems or hiccups till now from chennai consulate,except some verification of certificates. But ,I am on your side in this fairplay.
I heard alot of stories regarding the issue of visas to the spouses & visitors.Consulate should mend their ways in dealing with the visas.

Re: Fair Play for Foreign Experts!
Hi again,
I want to give you a short update. I already contacted some of my contacts to get their interest for our case, including the 'Spiegel'.
But they do not seem to be very interested at this time of so many 'crises'. And the number of supporting mails I got from you (16!) is also not so impressive.
But I will continue, no question
Viele Grüße aus Berlin
