Using Settlement Checking Service, recent waiting times?

I'm thinking about using the SCS, but can't seem to find any recent timelines that have used this route. I'll be applying in August but I would need my approval in 2 months time...has anyone recently used this service?

Hi
gnpg,
From what I've come across, some ILR applicants using SCS have their approvals in 4 weeks on average:

And you get to keep your travel documents too.
All the best.
thank you

I'm just split between choosing the premium service as there are still some dates in August I can attend, but using SCS saves me nearly 300 quid!
I do have a holiday booked in November so just a bit nervous about this thing taking more than 8 weeks...

Even with the SCS it could take up to 6 months to process.
