The rules are well known, not new or secret. You can easily find the official rules by searching on the web, you don't need to conduct a poll of people's personal experiences.

For example: https://www.gov.uk/check-uk-visa

Quote:

You’ll need a visa to pass through the UK in transit (unless you’re exempt)
You should apply for a Direct Airside Transit visa if you arrive in the UK on a flight and leave again without passing through immigration control.
Exemptions
You don’t need a visa if you have one of the following:
a visa for Canada, New Zealand, Australia or the USA...

Every check-in agent of every airline knows the rules. But you can print out and carry a copy of the official web page if you are worried.

PS Why was this question about flying SQ and needing a visa for the UK posted in the "India-based airlines" forum?
