Something that allows you save with a locked account that gives a % interest over a period of months

Why not save in USD on Piggyvest and earn some % interest on it?

Happy Christmas to everyone, please am in dire need of a 2/3 bedroom house in a good neighborhood with car parking in Liverpool Speke, Garston, Merseyside to be precise. Could also do Widnes. Getting through agency has been a bit difficult and the few ones that seemed willing all projected 2nd week of January to make their property available. I don't have the luxury of waiting. Kindly assist if you can thanks. Max budget is £600...

A question I am curious about to help in my decision making. Can someone on study permit invest or buy real estate properties in the UK. I believe people already living there are best to answer this question..


Yes, if you're a cash buyer or meet all the financial requirements to apply for a mortgage..........

Just to buy normal needed stuffs, 2 months student accommodation, and transport here and there.

No exorbitant/lavish spendings. Just daily needs and 2months student rent.

Location: Sunderland

This is more than enough here
If u cook sef go to Aldi on marks road and Hutchinson in Chester road close to royal hospital you won't spend more than 100 on food weekly
Rent is fair too but depends on taste but you can get ensuite for max 420 better manageable one
Cheers

House, I need advice, please. I'm looking for suggestions for a nice living area that's not more than 1hr train ride from Chelsea harbor. If possible, I don't want to live inside of London, for costs, etc. My papa no be Dangote, abeg, so no highbrow areas, just a generally great area with the usual amenities and away from all the London gang wahala.

Hello, can someone suggest a cheaper mobile network or app for calling Nigeria. The charges from lebara and lycamobile are quite expensive for me. Thanks.

I've used Boss Revolution for a while and it's quite cheap, but I believe there might be still cheaper alternatives out there.

Your request is like looking for a squirrel, with a hunch back........... grin

You don't want to live in London, yet you want an hour train ride to Chelsea harbour...............

Let me start by suggesting Dartford (as a kenturian)........ grin

Dartford rail station is a main connecting hub, get a train to London bridge or Waterloo and take the underground to Fulham Broadway (or get a folding bike )......... wink

If you have contract with Vodafone you can sign up for international saver. It costs £3 per month for 100 minutes or £7.50 per month for 500 minute. These rates are the cheapest I have seen so far.

Boss revolution isn't bad, the quality is crisps. Or you can tell people back home to register smile voice for you. It's VoIP tho, so your internet connection strength is a big factor, else yiu will end up in the[b]hello, hello, hello mtchew loop grin[/b]

Whereas boss revolution can use your internet or your cellular minutes for calling. It's pricer than smile voice but offers more stable connection.
