I have not been online for a while, as such, I did not see iamanswer’s libelous posts. I will put the facts out as it happened and I won’t be joining issues with anyone here on this matter. I am not a trader, I only buy what I need. I have dealt with quite some traders here and I pay for what I buy.

On 11th February, I initially requested for USD5,000 payable to BOA. He promised until 21st February when he said only had funds for Wellsfargo. At that time, I had gotten the funds I needed but coincidentally, someone (Mr. A) who I had bought funds for a week earlier needed more funds and I gave Iamanswer the Wells fargo’ account details Mr. A had earlier given to me for USD10,000. (Please note that I don’t know Mr. A, but we have a mutual friend in Lagos who referred him to me since I was in the US at that time). Mr. A who is in Nigeria claimed that he gave me his Bro-in-law’s US account number. On 22nd February 5.38pm, I asked iamanswer if payment was made, he said that the funds had been sold. At 5.46pm, I told him not to pay to the Wells fargo account again. I repeated this at 6.00pm. He responded immediately that its being done, I responded immediately that he should call it off, that the funds could not be accessed and he should concentrate on BOA only. At 7.50pm on 23rd February, I asked for update on the BOA payment, he responded that he will send the slip. At 10.38am on 24th February, Iamanswer sent a Wellsfargo deposit slip of $3500 paid on 23rd February at 5.54pm (payment into Mr. B’s wellsfargo account).

As if I knew that something could go wrong and I did not want liability for 3rd party funds, since it was not a payment to my account, which was why I told Iamanswer expressly not to go ahead with the payment. Upon informing the account holder (Mr. B) in US about the funds, he denied the funds, alleged its fraud money, money laundering etc, and asked for picture and ID of the depositor. Later on he claimed is account had been placed on hold and asked that the depositor should recall the funds by going to bank to claim that the funds were erroneously paid into his account. I passed all these info to Iamanswer, yet he was foot-dragging and screaming that I did not have money to pay. I told him expressly that since he had nothing to hide and his fund was genuine, he should get his depositor on standby to do the needful. He saw all my messages and he kept screaming for his naira. I told him several times that I cannot pay for what I did not buy especially since I had expressly told him not to even make payment and he ignored my instruction.

Iamanswer admitted that I told him to ‘halt the payment’, in his word, but he went ahead because he thought I was angry. Iamanswer was dillydallying on the matter and was just screaming that I scammed him. Lateron, I gave him Mr. B’s US number (which was given me by Mr. A) and he was not reachable online again. I also him Mr. A‘s number in Nigeria and Iamanswer cannot deny that he didn’t reach out to him. He called Mr. A and whatever the outcome was, I assume that it was not favourable to him. Its became apparent that Mr. B had disappeared and the only link to him is Mr. A (the bro-inlaw) who knows his sister and family members in Nigeria. I cannot pay for iamanswer’s undoing and rather than work through Mr. A by all means, to help fish out Mr. B in US to return the funds, Iamanswer has been screaming at me on whatsapp. Again, I can’t pay for what I did not buy and if he has a fraud claim against me, he should bring on his petition, if not he should stop this childish drama and charade that he is throwing around on Nairaland.
Now, I will digress a little, this same Iamanswer working with chido and ayo made some payment to someone for me in November 2017, funlord is aware of these transactions. $3230 – 8th Nov, $5250 – 8th Nov and $1000 – 13th Nov. Sometimes late December/January, it was brought to my notice that the 1st payment was a proceed of fraud and the account holder was under investigation in Rialto, California. The BOA account paid to was placed on hold and the $3230 was returned to the victim of the fraud when the account holder could not admit the source of the funds. These info was relayed to Chido/Ayo and they have even refunded N500,000 in partial return of the bad funds paid and that is all I have received todate despite all the valid info that shows that the dealt with bad funds. When I told iamanswer about this, he claimed not to be working with them again etc. I told him that is it because I have not pressurized him for my refunds, if I was a scammer, I wont still be in communication with you.

On Iamanswer’s baseless claim, I have put all I have to say out here and anyone can draw their conclusions but like I said, if iamanswer has a valid claim, he should go ahead and file his petition.

By the way, I am expecting my balance from iamanswer/chido/ayo.

I rest my case.

DEBBY516 is who I'm talking about

I think there must be a gap of 4 weeks each for the 3 PENTA vaccines at 6, 10 and 14 weeks. While you can take the 10 weeks vaccine schedule at 11 weeks, i advise that you take the 14 weeks followup vaccine at 15 weeks.

Bloomingbud:
Good morning mamas my children are due for 10 weeks immunization today please I'll like to know if plenty drama accompanies it like that of 6 weeks I mean the crying and crankiness.

And the time as come for Oakbend to join others.

I can authoritatively confirm that Oakbend has increased its fees by about 100% if you register and pay before the 36th week and even higher if you pay after 36th week. Epidural fees are nt optional again but however refundable for vaginal birth if not used. Hearing test is COMPULSORY now and included in their fee.

Thank God for the opportunity to have had 2 Oakbend born babies before this 'heart-paining" increase.

For more info, check Oakbend's website or ask your doctor.

Please read my earlier post on this. Do you have a visa?

MadameW:
Hi everyone, this platform has been of immense help to me; I’ve been studying like I have an exam to write. I had my interview at 10:45am on 11th January, 2018 (Lagos) and it was successful. Please note that this was my first attempt and I’ve not travelled outside Africa before. I went with my burden of proof and a truck load of prayers. I had been watching the guy that interviewed me and was silently praying not to be ushered to him because he was just rejecting everyone....alas! I was directed to this same guy. Here’s my transcript below:
Me: Good morning
VO: Good morning, passport please
Me: Sure (hands over my passport to him)
VO: why do you want to go to the US?
Me: to have my baby
VO: when is your EDD?
Me:xx April
VO: when do you plan to travel?
Me: 1st week in March
VO: Where in the US do you intend to give birth?
Me: Texas
VO: what do you do?
Me: [b]I’m a lawyer, [/b]I work with Bleep (an agency of Lagos State)
VO looks at his monitor) and you earn Bleep per month (not up to 100k

Lemme chip in on this.

Using ur naija card on amazon, u will definately be charged higher than 360, GTB charged 367 to a dollar 2 days ago. I dont use naija naira cards on amazon.

For passport at Fortbend county which i did in 2016, it takes 2 weeks to get US passport nd another 5 days thereafter to return baby's birth cert which they will collect from you at the county.

I advise u just pick up ur baby's bc nd head downtiwn for US passport for same day or next day passport.

OnJosh1:



THANK GOD that you and your baby are fine. As advised, tell them you are a self pay patient and that the bill is too high, ask for a reduction especially if you are looking to pay at once. I pray GOD'S Favour for you so that your bill is reduced to what you can afford as is your heart's desire IN JESUS NAME; AMEN

I have a few questions cus I'm doing my research for Passport etc while waiting for baby's arrival, I've got limited time to return to Naija after EDD, so I'm trying to find out what can be done immediately baby arrives and or expedited.

1. How many days did it take to receive your baby's SSN (Do you know if this can be expedited?)

2. Was it at Fort Bend Passport Office that you got expedited Baby's passport in a day? I saw on their website... normal is 4-6weeks and expedited is 3 weeks... a friend just advised me to try Downtown Houston she did hers for 185usd... but Fort Bend is closer to me, so I'll appreciate if you can share how you got the one day expedited Passport.

3. What bank card did you use on Amazon? So I used my Stanbic Card and for some reason got a message from Stanbic that the amount was higher than the limit.
I thought the limit was 200usd... what I bought is 183usd. Moreso Amazon that gave me option to pay in Naira (was excited via the rate was very good) just changed mouth the next day and I saw my order in USD...

Thanks and GOD Bless you and your little one.

I am with Zeenayah on this and that's why i read some posts, smh and pass. I also dont respond to pm without looking at ur history on nl.

I had lots of correspondence for Atlanta and LA, even Chicago and louisiana for this my current maternity trip. What did i do? Google, get their contact emails and phone numbers and started reaching out.

When their responses come in, i crossed out the pricey ones. Did i come back here to ask for help/reviews? Yes i did but i was armed with some info. Did i use any of them? Nope. I am back to my old Oakbend nd dr. Z. But the info i ve is mine.

B4 someone starts yarning laziness or nt, i ve met wonderful pple on this thread but its give and take, share, share and share, not come for 'emergency treatment'.

What i see all around now is emergency requests up nd down.

@supernaturalone, congrats once again. Our God will shower you with favour.

Helli, still available?

habeeb246:
Still remaining. Direct users only. 2k Walmart. 200 x 10, 800 eBay 200 x4. 100 x1 Amazon. All bought yesterday

For Enfamil and Similac folks nah. All my children take SMA Gold, bought last N6500 in lag. Just speaking for myself, somethings i would not buy in US.

I got Gerber cereal for my toddler today at Walmart, almost $3. Is it even her jar food i want to talk abt.

OmoBendel24:


Good. But then, how much is Enfamil and Similac in the US? Way cheaper than it is here in Nigeria oh.... Even most Gerber products too!

In my opinion, buy baby clothes and shoes here, up to 1 year, carters, and co are cheaper to buy here than Lagos. Besides you are sure of the quality of what u re buying. Same goes, with some basic baby needs, diaper bag, bottles etc. But i dont advise u buy consumables like diapers, wipes, baby food etc here, its more expensive and nt really worth it.

beautyuche:


There are good stores here you can buy from. If you have lots of money to spend then you can buy in d states. just put into consideration the exchange rate.
I am also a FTM and i read in the last thread where a mum only budgeted for medical and didnt bother with shopping because exchange rate at the time was over 400+ to 1 usd .

I ve replied you. Reply the message u got from nairaland. [quwote author=tootush post=64003146]

Hello ma'am, have tried 2 send u messages but the onl option have seen is send an email not sure iknow how 2 do d pm. but pls if u can send
