This has nothing to do with OPW.  Please stop bringing OPW into this
conversation.

Zeeshan, what Sindhu expects is consistency.  It would have halped her
and anyone else if they applied and failed to get a visa.  That is not
unreasonable, and she has the right to express her frustration.  She
has a general frustration over how GF has been handling refunds in
general and I think this is part of it.
