We kindly ask for your patience (?)
Is there any polite way to ask for someones patience in British business English, or is it just not authentic to appeal for patience at all?

Hello Ovtolevks!
I would rather say "we apologize for the delay", but then I would say "we appreciate your patience in this matter".
I hope that helps!

Best not to ask for patience. It's better to apologize for the delay.
