How do you know which fuel is right or wrong for your vehicle please. I’ve been seeing two types of petrol and I’ve tried both on the car. Do you have an idea how one can know the best fuel(petrol) type for car ? Thanks Schoolhike: |

Good evening house, please what site can I check to get an apartment for a family of 5 in London? I need the information for my Pre CAS interview, I don’t know if this is the right place to ask this as the site i was asked to check is confusing..thank you |

Best option is look at Airbnb first and when you arrive, you now work towards a permanent solution. But you can check on Zoopla, OpenRent, RightMove websites for an idea into these. What other information do you need for your pre-CAS? You might need to look in the other thread dedicated to UK Tier 4 Visa https://www.nairaland.com/7767052/uk-student-visa-tier-4#124465678 voucher: |

harddrive2012: Was actually buying the supreme before, but I stoped it because it’s more expensive and read few articles online that it doesn’t really matter on the fuel type, but some argue that it’s saves on fuel cost as it doesn’t burn quicker compared to the second option. I just decided to stop buying it since my car is not the high end type, and it’s getting old already. Another argument was that someone needs to be consistent with the fuel type right from when the car was bought brand new, since mine has been used by several people, I don’t just feel the need to be buying expensive fuel. 1 Like |

harddrive2012: The person you're quoting mistakenly put petrol in a diesel car. They're not talking about different kinds of petrol. With those, there's little, if any *practical* difference. 1 Like |

zeezeepearl: I’ld advise you take the night offer so can proceed with the application. When you are finally in, maybe some few months after, you can have a word with your manager and hopefully you are able to switch to being a day staff. |

Yes you will be asked those questions but it is fine to say that you are currently in talks with landlords and agents on those platforms I shared. They will understand that you do not need to have a contract in place before you get your visa. [quote author=voucher post=125117856][/quote] |

Please how do one apply for UK license after driving with international license for 12 months. The DVLA is confusing. I want to understand where to start from. Do i need to apply for provisional license first? I was thinking is for new drivers. Abeg make una explain give me. Also can one switch expired license to UK license. (The expired license is from designated countries approve by UK) |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by lavida001: 12:06pm On Aug 15, 2023 |
I applied for a change of address on my provisional licence on Dvla website but didn’t get mail or feedback from them. Has anyone try changing address on their provisional license here ? What were the steps you took? |

Yes I have. All you need to do is fill out the form online and you should get an email stating what's in the image attached. Check your SPAM folder perhaps it went in there. lavida001:

DVLA is not confused na you no read the information very well. You can't switch an expired licence. You will first get a provisional licence, do the theory test, pass the test and then book for a practical driving test RealBae: 1 Like 1 Share |

Hclinton: Got mine sorted by a lawyer who worked in thesame office with my brother back in Nigeria, he did overcharged me( N80k ) but I just dash him the money, I got a scanned copy in 2 days and the hard copy through DHL in 4 days. If you have someone in Lagos it will be alot cheaper and easy The guy is based in Abuja. |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Googledrive12: 2:37pm On Aug 15, 2023 |
If anyone know an Abuja based courier service that send stuff from Abuja to London please share their details with me. Thanks in anticipation. |

Passed my driving test, any tips on getting a cheaper insurance quote? These insurance companies no dey smile at all. 2 Likes |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Schoolhike: 5:51pm On Aug 15, 2023 |
kwakudtraveller: You can keep searching and wait if you are not in haste as you will still get one cheaper. Last year when I was searching for one, I keep getting £2k minimum, I waited for 2 days while still checking them, later got for £1k (note that I have Uk licence, it was new then and car is 1.6 engine, yours might be lower or higher depending on your situation). Meanwhile, recently I think there is a current hike in price of insurance, lots of friends have been complaining about the increase in price. Check all comparison website, quotezone, supermarkets, go compare, money savings, etc Also, it might be tempting to increase the excess, just put amount you can afford. (A friend car got bashed recently and the driver refused to stop, he called the insurance he was told that it’s a claim against himself because he couldn’t get the other driver details even just reg number, he was told to pay the excess first which was 500£ he choose when buying out the insurance, he later repaired the car him self with 250£) NB:Please don’t ever lie to get cheap insurance it doesn’t worth it at all, the consequence it too bad, really much more expensive on the long run and bad reputation if caught. Edit: You can discuss with your current provider anyway. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Please house I need your assistance @ duchess90 and Advance DNA.. I applied for temporary work visa - creative as (TRADITIONAL GUITARISTS), have gone for biometrics since 31/07/2023. I just got a message from UKVI to come for interview on the 23 of August 2023. Please what are the questions should I expect them to ask. As I have my certificate of sponsorship (cos) with me. Please help me out thanks |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Nobody: 6:56pm On Aug 15, 2023 |
Dandicker: Maybe carry your guitar along so you can show your skills? 😄 Jokes aside, I never did an interview but I’d imagine as it’s a very unique case (based on my admittedly limited knowledge) , they’ll ask questions around your experience and skill set to confirm that you’re skilled/experienced enough. Have you played in any bands/troupes etc? Been on stage anywhere notable? Credits in a record etc.? Those are the kinds of things I’d prepare to expatiate on, if I were you. Best of luck! 1 Like |
