This post is just to say thank you to everyone that come here to give advice, share information and basically render support when required. In January a couple of you guys started discussing about how to get a property , that was when it occurred to me that have been dashing landlord money for too long oh.

Shout out to my girl @Mimzyy❤️. Thanks for always cheering.

Congratulations!!! I tap into your blessing. Please I need a dancing emoji

Oboy pray they didn't report you for scam else police still dy come o.

Lloyds told me my account was reported for investment fr**d and that I have too much in flow within a short period so therefore, they're closing down the account. I went there in person to ask for my money and I was told am going to receive a letter by post, say from there we go know the next step.

The funny thing is the name of the person who claimed scam is a staff of allianz insurance from LinkedIn search.

I doubt if he’ll go to prison. Sanction and be forced to step is down is more likely. Flutter wave I hope survives it as well. They have innocent staff that earn from there.

The company was built on fraud.. He also lied under oath. If it was registered in Nigeria, I would say nothing will happen. He would be extremely lucky to avoid a jail term

After their investigation is concluded, you would receive a letter officially closing your account and a closing balance cheque .........

Hi guys, I have been assigned a 3 year CoS and my employer agreed to certify my maintenance so i don’t have to use my bank statement when applying for visa.

I am not sounding greedy but is it right as there were no prior discussion regarding this, I was only told after my CoS was assigned.

It isn't a new development. A number of companies do same and deduct from your salary monthly. Were you given a separate letter/contract to sign for the loan?
Whatever you ain't happy with, you may discuss with your recruiter in a subtle way.

The financial empire in Nigeria is built on exploitation basically one way or the other.

What type of job is this ?.... morally employer suppose to cover all cost , at the minimum you should have been told before cos.

However the streets are not playing . Home offices charges are so much that employers are coming up with all manner of tricks to cover the cost. Some are putting in the contract that you pay xx amount if you leave before.
Morally ke? Even the NHS does not cover IHS outside of the house health and care categories

I believe having an employer cover you IHS/VISA cost is a plus, It is not their responsibility.
Since OP didn't inquire before been issued the CoS, it's noone's blame.
I will advise that you accept the option given as it takes away the pressure of having to cough out the fee wholesome.

Let me play devil’s advocate here

The only way to track you earnings is via NI, your income from gigs don’t reflect on ur NI, ur moniker on upwork and Fiverr will most likely not be your official name and even if it does, there are a million John Pauls out there.

Do with that information what you may

avalon7:
HELP! I just read on the uk immigration site that Freelancing is not allowed for people with a student visa (tier 4). Please does anyone know if they enforce this and how? I have fairly successful gigs on Upwork and fiverr and I'm curious as to if this would count as self-employment/freelancing and what will happen if I'm discovered to be earning money on these platforms while studying? THANKS FOR YOUR RESPONSES

They're copying from Australia's playbook. At least Rwanda has land borders and asylum seekers will most likely be able to leave. Christmas Island, Manus and Nauru where the Australians send their asylum seekers are all tiny islands with no way out unless the government lets you out. Unfortunately for the UK government, there are a lot of white knights that will likely scupper this plan. There'll probably be protests within the week

It’s a care worker job. Having read other people’s input, it’s like it’s a norm.
