simple answer Don't fly them It is obvious they are playing us for fools knowing we are desperate enought to follow their rules regardless. |

Good on them I say, perhaps when more Airlines and other companies start treating us the same way, we will sit up and stop our "its not in my backyard mentality" and start speaking up and seek for means to tackle the rabid decay that is spiralling out of control in every nook and cranny of that %&**^&* country previously known as the Giant of Africa" |

Re: by justwise(m): 10:03am On Aug 05, 2009 |
@chaircover I just checked for u said now, its true but not just Nigerians only, Ghana, Mali as well. But if u are going to a place like Zambia u can pay by credit or debit. This is sad to be honest |
Re: by Nobody: 12:19pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
Please stop ranting juh. If it's too stressful for you to do bank transfers then tell your NIGERIAN kinsmen to stop yahoo yahoo. It is not by force to fly them. Fly another airline. End of tori. |

Re: by londoner: 1:35pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
look, we should all be directing more anger at the few nigerians who are responsible for people feeling none of us are to be trusted. Is it KLM alone, what about Ebay or even western union? Face it, if you were doing business with a Nigerian would you not think twice about it if it involves money which is not cash? As sad as it is, I would not feel easy until I had recieved the money knowing how some Nigerians behave. I did say some. Nigerians should no longer fly these airlines, but also start speaking up to those in our midst who we know full well are responsible for our decayed reputation. We all are feeling the effect, whether its the cautious look when you tell someone you are Nigerian or the reluctance to accept credit card payments or do business with you. We honest Nigerians have sat back and let these thieves and crooks hijack our identity for far too long. Lets face the real root of this. It begins in our own back yard. |
Re: by MrCrackles(m): 1:43pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
To hell with KLM and the remaining Nigerian fraudsters! If KLM no gree fly una and you cant be fuc.ked doing a bank transfer, fly another airline or call the Nigerian Govt to get Nigeria Airways back up! |
Re: by justwise(m): 2:42pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
This is not just Nigerians alone, i think the whole WEST African Countries, i tried Ghana and Mali as well still the same prob, then i tried Zambia there was no prob paying with card. We need to stop supporting these crinimals around us, decent Nigerians are paying for their crime, i'm really gutted |

Re: by ThiefOfHearts(f): 3:02pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
lol when someone made a thread on whether or not you'd report someone you know committing fraud, you all laughed and said you'd just make the person give you a cut yada yada Now that the consequences are hitting the "innocent", it's no longer funny huh |
Re: by Nobody: 3:10pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
KLM?? Is that an airline? Psssshhh! KLM and other airlines can kiss my raw behind. I've flown BA all my life and i've never had a single quanta with them. The only other airline i've tried is American Airline but they didn't quite measure up. |
Re: by GEW: 3:48pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
ThiefOfHearts:karma, i think say someone don marry you go hide you for house. i have not seen you recently. i have said this for the last 2 yrs becos ba started this nonsence but you cant blame them cos they said every 10 cards they accept 4 - 6 are fraud case. so what do you expect them to do? BA dont even accept $100 bills on board now thanks to our people. i used to wonder why our people spend so much money buying things on board until i was told most are using fake notes. it is easy to blame these airlines but they are in business. it is our something for nothing culture we need to start questioning seriously. anyway good to see u |

calm down and take a joke, chair. Obviously it was tongue in cheek Still find it funny that I was being called names when I said I would report anyone I know committing crime even it if were my offspring, now these "pro faudsters" people are feeling the consequences I dont see it happening here anytime soon. havent you heard? We love to sue! |

Re: by Nobody: 5:14pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
chaircover, it appears you've taken my comments the wrong way. What a shame! Yes, I know of the story about BA evicting Nigerians off their plane and i think i also read of your experience with BA although i did not leave a comment. Listen, you can't blame these people for acting the way they are. How do you expect these pple to relate to us if our own Govt are mendacious and disregard us. Secondly, BA is regarded as the best airline in the world so you would excuse me for making the initial comment PLUS i haven't had a bad experience with them before. Infact, i do not know of any airline that would allow a passenger to purchase a ticket and board a flight within/before 3 hours of departure. . . . . This happened to my mum 2 months ago. There are a few other reasons i could give but i hope you see and understand my reason for talking down on KLM and their latest plan. Only recently i found that it is impossible to book a flight online for someone else if the owner of the payment details isn't flying as well. Yahoo yahoo boys don kill us finish. |
Re: by ThiefOfHearts(f): 5:15pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
best airline by who? |
Re: by Nobody: 5:23pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
British Airways Best Airline : Transatlantic Best Cabin Staff - Western Europe http://www.worldairlineawards.com/Awards_2009/Result_Summary.htm don't tell me you didn't see it cos i know you are in the habit of not seeing things. |
Re: by spikedcylinder: 5:26pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
Wait a min, how are yahoo people defrauding airlines? Do they like fraudulently buy the tickets and re-sell? How on earth do they make money that way? |
Re: by Nobody: 5:28pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
spikedcylinder:I'd explain the process, but to be on the safe side, I'll let OMO IBO explain it to you. @Post KLM? Shouldnt they be trying to attract customers? I thought the airline was already bankrupted and closed down because of its its crappy service |

Re: by spikedcylinder: 5:33pm On Aug 06, 2009 |
Yea, I get that they can clone payment cards and buy tickets with them but what do they proceed to do with the tickets? Correct me if I'm wrong but are these tickets not personalised upon purchase? |
