check Temu


Thank you very much.

Do you have any particular recommendations? Possibly from your experience of dashcam purchase?
I saw a very nice shoe on Temu. I ordered 1. Thru gave me a huge discount on a second pair. I paid for the two. When shoes arrived, I was shocked at t weight of the package. It weighed like feathers.
The two shoes I saw inside…. Well, it’s more than 5 months now? I have never worn the shoes.

Very cheap and effective

Just found this amazing item on AliExpress. Check it out! £9.26 65% Off | Dash Cam W/ IR Night Vision Loop Recording and 2" IPS Screen 1080P 3 Camera

Please, there's no point in using a dashcam that you can't use when shyte hits the fan. I have been using a nextbase dashcam since 2018. Though, I left it in the car overnight in South east london once and they broke my glass to steal it. The dashcam was £65 pounds, I paid more than £1k to fix the glass. So, you have to learn to keep it safe every night.

OP needs to clarify why his insurance was voided....... More to the story.........😂

Most of what you stated, is what your insurance company is supposed to do ........ But at the point of a claim, your insurance can run a DD check on the insured and void policy (if any discrepancy was uncovered)......

I have someone facing something similar to this.
He has gotten a full license but have failed to update the insurance company, now there is a claim, company is speaking oyibo, owner of the other car is on his neck to repair. Wahala too much, he no know wetin to do

Temu? Have you successfully got items delivered in good shape and time from them? I've read many conflicting reports about them, especially with their overly cheap prices.

A month ago we bought for 4500 naira but today it’s more than 10.000 naira. Sand was bought for 27000 and now it’s 35000.

Naira is going down while cost of goods and services are going up

It has been discussed multiple times here.

In addition whatever savings he was pursuing when he did not notify the insurance company, he will lose it in multiple folds when he does a new poilicy and they ask him for the circumstance behind the last policy cancelation and any claims made against him

Hello people (especially AmEx users).
Can I transfer or donate my Amex BA companion voucher? I do have one companion voucher which will expire in March.

Also, I just maxed out my avios for the year (I spent £12,000 and have got a new companion voucher. Will any more spending accrue more avios for me? Or I have to wait till June to start getting avioses?

I know one can transfer to nectar as I have done before but not sure about donating.


I have maxed twice but only transferred few points to nectar. Don’t even know that those points can expire until I read your post now

Bad news: companion vouchers are non transferable. You must always be one of the named passengers.

Good news: You can conto he accruing points. It's unlimited, I believe. The 12k just means you've gotten the companion voucher but it doesn't interrupt your normal points accrual.

So, after coming here, wanting to diss someone, you ended up making mockery of yourself.

1. You certainly have zero 0️⃣ understanding of what tautology is, or what it means to say something is tautological.
Granted, OP used the word ‘Borrow’ instead of ‘Lent’. Is that tautology? Hell NO!

You certainly don’t know what ‘tautological grammar’ means.

Sorry sir/maam.


I used the word "Tautology" for want of a better word to convey the import of what I said, not because I do not know the meaning of the word

It pisses me off when Nigerians use sentences such as "Borrow me your book" instead of "Lend me your book" or "Am going to the supermarket" instead of "I'm going to the supermarket"

It is true that we are not native speakers of the English language but if you have lived long enough among native speakers of English I expect to see some improvement

@ToshoTosin my post was not meant to diss you so please don't think too much of it smiley

How rude.

I see people have been having several goes at you, Professor.

I wonder what your IELTS band was. Even 9.5s are not this rude. Gosh

Did I say anywhere that I live in the UK or that I have plans to relocate there?

I have never written IELTS in my life and I have no plans of doing so, I only visit Europe and return to Nigeria

Anytime you see me in Europe or America on a permanent basis just know that Nigeria is already on fire (But we all know that's not gonna happen) grin
