She moaned about visa process that took place outside of Poland.

No f*cktard, the visa process was to take place inside Poland. If she'd been told by somebody in the UK that she needed to pay for something which was free, she could report the fraudster to the British police. However as the shakedown took place in the Polish consulate, which is of course legally part of Poland, she'd need to complain to the Polish police.

This is all very hard to believe. As somebody wrote before - it has to be something for non-EU citizens. As a Belgian I can live and work here without problems.

No need to have a work permit. You register with your local Gmina to get your meldunek and then you go in Warsaw to the Foreigner's office on ul. DÅ‚uga 5 where the very friendly girls in the EU section you will issue you a "Karta Pobytu" (Residence Card" for EU citizens.

Polish visa - Nightmare!

- You're obviously not from any EU country? What is your country? I know much more nightmarish countries than Poland as regards obtaining visa, red tape, etc. For example US and Canada. If obtaining a Polish visa is allegedly a nightmare, is there any word in human language to describe difficulties in obtaining visas from those countries? Don't you exaggerate big time? And before Poland joined EU many Poles trying to visit UK were simply not allowed to do that and were fiercely harassed by customs people. So what is your country?

Im from the UK

- If you're from the UK, why would you have any visa problems when entering Poland? Citizens of UK (and of any other EU country) can enter Poland visa-free. So what's the whoop? Didn't you make up the entire horror story? Didn't you vilify my country for no other reason than your prejudice?

No, she didn't. She was badly advised by some embassy staff.

That was Polish embassy staff, no?

Just in case there were any further misunderstandings.
