Hi Guys, I got mine as
Listening 8, Reading 8, Speaking 8 and Writing 6.5 :( My overall is 7.5 but due to writing my score is 399. Do you think there is a chance to boost by 0.5 by applying for rescoring ?

In the past people have seen their scores jump by 0.5 in writing by going for recheck, I'd recommend you go for rechecking but its your decision to make.
 
I already have my results:

L: 8.5 R: 8.5 W: 6.5 S: 7

I missed writing for .5 and the funny thing is that it was the one in which I felt more confident. Should I ask for an enquiry on results? Does anyone knows how long does this process takes?

Agreed! I’m also planning to apply for a remark - I have the same issue with my writing (6.5) while Reading 9, Listening 8.5 and Speaking 8 are all in line with expectations. If a 0.5 jump is all you need, it’s a good idea to apply for a remark in a subjective skill like writing. But bear in mind it will take 10-12 weeks to get the results if you took your IELTS through BC. IDP is much faster apparently. Best of luck and may you get the rise in scores you need! :)

I'm in a pretty similar situation (L: 8.5 R: 8.5 W: 6.5 S:7) so I'll apply for EOR as well, since I truly think that my writing and speaking were better, and it isn't thaaaat expensive (around 80 dollars, they told me) although I think I'll ask them to check just the Writing, because a 7 in Speakings works for me (so there's really no point in risking Speaking going down, even if that's not very likely). But I will present the exam again in March, that way I'll have 2 shots.
