Agbaya niyen. Your answers don't relate to his question.

Shey e tell you say na England e dey come, wey you dey tell am to go peckham?

Or e ask you the long epistle you wrote, that is irrelevant to his question?

If you are that bored, to turn his question to play without even answering the question, then you should learn to start watching comedy on YouTube.

This is how comments spiral out of control. Even the person who asked questions was making fun with his question and subsequent responses and you are here complaining. It feels like you were looking forward to a particular response to use yourself.
Meanwhile did the person asking question reveal location abi are we not in the UK anymore?

Bros, no dey tighten things for chest. If person wey ask question no complain why you come dey worry?

Sometimes doing good comes back to haunt you.

Helped a stranded family with Accomodation at a friend's.

The result is bringing enmity between the husband and wife that hosted them and keeping malice with them equally.

Oh, I am now an enemy for trying to mediate.

It is well. Donโ€™t let it stop you from doing good sha. Thatโ€™s how a relative kept asking me questions about student job, type of courses to apply etc, after telling all I know to her and guiding her in choosing a relevant course, location etc, when she came into U.K. she told her people that anytime she ask me questions I donโ€™t answer on time ( me with me night job shift, next time I will tell people to call me 1am when am on break then they will understand ) and she blocked me, it doesnโ€™t bother me but I learnt my lessons but wonโ€™t stop helping if information if I have.

Some Nigerians are not understanding and wise. This is part of the reason I hardly commit myself to going any extra mile for people, I do what is in my power and allow you to figure out the rest. Me that i am just a year plus here, I cant be forming saviour and deliverer.
The pressure of managing ones family and bills, I will now go and add extra headache.

No. not me.

Hi All, 2 things. I currently moved form one skilled worker visa to another. According to gov.uk, my family don't seem to have to reapply since they still have visa from my previous employer. Some people say they have to re-apply for another visa, others say it doesn't matter. I feel they need not according to my interpretation on gov.uk. But maybe we misunderstood. Can some one advise. Secondly, I can link you to where affordable snails are available if based in coventry.

Good morning elders

Please for IMMIGRATION HEALTH SURCHARGE (IHS), how long does it take to get the payment after this email please? Does it mean I have to wait another 6 weeks from the date of this email or the existing 6 weeks counting from application date

Hi Xxxx Xxxxx,

Youโ€™ve successfully made a claim for your immigration health surcharge (IHS) reimbursement.

Your application reference number is BSโ€ฆโ€ฆ..

What happens next:

Youโ€™ll:
โ€ข check payment has been made after 6 weeks
โ€ข possibly need to reapply in 6 months

Kind regards,
IHS Reimbursement Team

I initially made the application via the gov.uk website 6th April. I received a mail April 24th requesting me to reattach my documents as they couldnโ€™t open the initial attachment. I replied to the email on the 25th of April and I never heard from them afterwards till I sent a mail this morning and I received the response above

They donโ€™t have to apply immediately as long as their current brp hasnโ€™t expired. They are still on dependant visas.

ยฃ50

That's how much I've been fined for overstaying in a private carpark cry

I don go forgot myself now. Usually, I set reminders to exit the park but not this time.

But what's disturbing is that Parking Charge notice stated that the ยฃ50 fee can be reduced if I pay within 14 days but the quoted discounted fee is ยฃ85. What an absurdity!

I've called the company but the line are just automated prompts. The company, Highview Parking's review on Google is poor with many complaining of inaccessibility.

I guess the deal is to pay the ยฃ50! Lesson learnt.
