Hi. I have read the comments about 'best and final' offers with interest and hope I can shed some light. Any EA can ask an applicant to go to 'best and final' offers but this will be on the instruction of the Vendor.

This practice is not suggested by the EA, but instructed by the Vendor. I hope this has clarified the situation but please do contact me directly if you would like to discuss any particular case- my email address is
