Already in Abuja, Action ready for Tuesday 9th, June 2015.

Visited Nicon Luxury to feel the atmosphere.

Lets the action begins;

In God I Trust.

All the best bro...!
I await your testimony!

Dfavouredone:
Cool idea bro. I am in the UK right now but will be flying to Nigeria first week in June. I am having my AC on the 9th of June in Abuja.

It will be nice good idea for we coming to Abuja for the AC to have a mock AC on Sunday 7th of June there in Abuja just before the start of the real AC on Monday.

Guys, what do you think?

My AC is in Port Harcourt in July...
Ain't feasible for me

In a dilemma...

Should I book a direct flight for 319k (with the hope that NLNG will reimburse)... or go with a cheap flight of 198k (and spend 2days travelling) just in case they don't reply favourably?

Analysts in the house... over to you!

Nicer:
As long as you have received details of your date and center, no more mails would be necessary. Good luck

Why then did they ask for our location?

At least they should know that we are somewhere on planet Earth!

They should have just asked us to indicate interest or availability.

Coming from the UK for this AC is gonna cost me a lot... @ least 250k

I just hope they take care of that

ABEngine:
From the look of things the prompt yet initially biased decision of mine to settle for company xyz (an E&P) really paid off, otherwise, this son of man would have suffered serious heart attack with this delay.


NLNG but why? *in heavy Igbo accent*

Baba ABEngine.... I see you... and I know your company xyz!

Enjoy!

dway4ward:
Some have contacted NLNG multiple times with regards change of location, but no acknowledgement of any sort. Makes sense though since the dates aren't fixed yet. The profile pages are also offline so no changes possible from there.
I'll suggest a reply to the final invite stating dates of assessment, it is well.

Good to know I'm not alone.
Thanks

Is there anyone here that wrote the recruitment exam in the UK?

Will there be an AC centre in the UK?

If my last address was in Nigeria, and I'm now in the UK, how do I sort it out? Or do I bare the flight fare myself?

Someone should help me out please

Y most of the black guys dey form for UK?
Even to ask your fellow Nigerian for direction na wahala. God help us

justwise:
Avoid running into financial trouble this early, it will not be funny. Check your school noticeboard for accommodation adverts, students looking for who to share room with, use gumtree and search for rooms in your city, simply type student room in(your city) you will see a lot in gumtree, contact the person for view before making any payment.

thanks. I will do that. I intend going to the school hostels today to sort out things. the admin was already gone when I arrived yesterday.

walexy5050:
Why don't u apply for the school accommodation when you were processing ur travel documents, it would have save u stress. I did apply for UCLAN accommodation and my key is already waiting for me. Although the rent fee is steep 1955pounds for 5months but it guarantee where to stay until u settle In well and able to get a beta accommodation

I did try to do that, but wasnt able to make a deposit using my card.

ironbender101:

Ok. Safe trip.

Have you made arrangement for accommodation? I have been unable to do that. Pls send me a PM

jelmusboy:
Why don't you take direct flight from London if you are a first timer

I intend doing that.

Thanks

ironbender101:
Yes bro im going to Salford. Going with Emirate and arriving Manchester international airport.

Ok bro.

When is your flight?

spikesC:
It's hard for a new person to use those. I think Google who be far easier to plan the journey.

Search direction from your London postcode to your destination postcode. Use the public transport section of the map you'll see

Ok boss. Thanks

Please who's going to Salford?

How do I get there from London?

Any tip, info and help will be highly appreciated.

justwise:
Congrat!

Thanks boss!

I received my package today @ TP Abuja.

I searched and searched and searched my passport, no visa. I did that three times, nothing.

A security man asked me to calm down as he took my passport to search it himself. Nothing. He gave me back my passport.

On my way out, I discovered that the last 2 pages were stuck together. I then carefully open it and there it was.... 20 working hrs bla bla bla.... I could neither rejoice no do otherwise.

Special thanks y'all... Gracias!

And to those expecting, grace be upon you, and remember that anxiety isn't, and will never be a good thing.

DSSHQ:
I received the same email too.Does it mean we can go and collect it now ?

Yes. You're supposed to get two emails from them. All the best

Ready for collection.

Special thanks to the gurus in the house, I really appreciate the help.

Travel date, next week.

I haven't gotten the package, but I'm positive and hope for the best.

Tomorrow is the last working day of the week, and I'm still waiting for a reply.

A friend that submitted on the 16th dec got his mail two days ago.

I submitted on the 17th Dec in the same VAC and nothing yet...

#ThinkingOutLoud...

I submitted in Abuja on the 17th Dec 2014, and no feedback since then.

Now I'm really getting worried. Are they still on hols?

justwise:
It doesn't make much of a difference, you can pick up your package yourself when its ready.

Ok, thanks

DSSHQ:
Pls I hope they kept to time ? I have my interview soon and I will like to leave Abuja as soon as I'm done with the interview. Thanks

My appointment was @ 12, but it was almost 2pm when I left there. Little delays here and there.

@ justwise and spikesc

I forgot to pay for courier service at the VAC.
Can I pay online? Has anyone done it before?
Or do I have to come back to Abj when it's ready for collection?

what does it mean?
i have been trying to pay since yesterday.

Hello, what you need to do is enable cookies on your web browser, and then clear the browsing data. Depending on which web browser you are using. Once you have done this, you will be able to make the payment. I tried this four times and it worked each time.

Also make sure to have your account properly funded otherwise you will get a different error message.

Good luck with your application.

Thanks bro... I appreciate!
