I can only answer the first question.

We don’t buy bottle water, we got a virgin pure machine now called (Our tap) which uses a combination of filtration and UV light to remove impurities. You can use my referral code and we both get £30 voucher https://ourtaap.com/?ref=1718568785.

FYI, I pay 33.79 per month…

Hail the gurus in the house
Please i don't mean to digress from the ongoing matter
Just two quick questions way dey worry me.

1) me and our kids have been drinking the Thames water, I mean tap water and I have heard some many different views about how safe it is to drink it infact the last one that got me so worried was when someone mentioned in the heat of an argument that she suspects the tap water contributes to the level of autistic kids...

I realised I usually see white colour substances deposits-sticked to the kettle or pot after boiling water... wondering if same substances deposits inside the body after drinking. We are Beginning to consider bottle water but the consumption and cost no go be here
Please your candid advise

2)I have been over 3years in the country and have been striving really hard to climb the property ladder but we keep spending out of 10% deposits savings (saved in separate account) though some spendings are inevitable financial obligations.
Please is it a bad idea or decision as a first timer to jump into Rent to buy scheme or shared ownership option to secure our first home?
Abi all we need is more strictly financial discipline on our deposit savings as the thing keep fluctuating
Thank you gurus,
Your input would be highly appreciated

Getting a provisional driving license is an easy as long as you have an address. I would suggest you apply for that.

Elders, as an international student who arrived in the UK in March 2025, how can I improve my credit score of 549? I’ve tried applying for credit cards with Capital One and Tesco, I was approved, but they require a UK driver’s license to verify my identity, which I don’t have yet. I’d really appreciate any advice or help.

To the financial gurus in this space. Is this a good news? And how does it impact Nigeria?

Apologies, I just opened the one shared on this forum and I have just confirmed that the one I had accessed to earlier was an old one.

Zakikaki:
Are you sure of this because I've read the white paper, must have not read this bit. What page please?

According to the white paper No!!!

The white paper explicitly states “We will honour the agreement expectation of those already on the 5 years route to settlement and the 5year rule to ILR will continue for those already in the UK before the rules are introduced “.

Edited: Please ignore …

Schoolhike:
Parse the link to NOTEBOOKLLM, then start asking questions that apply to you. The 82 pages include information about skilled workers, students, family reunification, border security, and integration.

So you can just ask specific questions regarding skilled worker visas. Any question.

It seems the 10-year period will affect both current and prospective applicants.

I have been using Opay for almost 2years now and no issues. I also use the rest but Opay is my main account after I stop using GTb and the high street banks.

I think the problem you had was the last amount that went in as a whole, All banks would require verification for source of fund when an unusual huge amounts comes in. What you could have done is inform customer care before receiving the fund.

ehizario2012:
Be careful with Opay though, I had a serious issue with them last year. My account was frozen for receiving an inflow of 12M... They kept requesting for documentation to verify that amount before they eventually unfroze my account. I had to even send pay slip at a point. If the experience with others like moniepoint, palmpay and kuda are better, let's know. Especially running them from outside Nigeria. Thanks.

Opay, Palmpay and Kuda.

justwise:
Any Nigerian bank account one can open from here without having to travel home? The traditional ones are requesting for a lot of documentation… don’t want to repeat the process I went through with GTBank.

Wants to remove my money from GTBANK completely.

Bros, you are giving some Layi wasabi vibes with that last quote 😂

Goke7:
So why do they always make it look as if they wasted money on Ukraine? Are they not only making good their promise to protect Ukraine after giving up their nuclear arsenal years ago? In whose interest at the end is the support for Ukraine? That’s how they also continue to deceive the world about foreign aids as freebies when in actual fact is for the protection of their economic interests in those countries they give aid to. This hypocrisy is what I detest jor

Lol, Slow poke is a one word I have heard him used so often for Biden. 😂 Gone are the days when leaders were men of honour and good words. EHaffRed for the world.

jedisco:
Sure- we know as e dey be. Most was sent to U.S firms to make and supply weapons at an exorbitant price. Other times, it was old weapons being cleared out to Ukraine to make room for new ones. Good cash was also given though. Though the American economy benefited loads, Z wouldn't have survived this long without that support. Perhaps if he knew it would come to this, he may have been more strategic in his requests.

It's quite harrowing when you hear Trump speak about Biden in public- na only to insult his predecessor.

Yes of course which is why Trump said he isn’t going to be the one to start WWIII.

jedisco:
I always wondered- when people say security guarantee- do they mean America committing to go to war with Russia should they invade Ukraine again?

Trump did mention it in the last chat, If US haven’t been helping you, the war would have ended in 2weeks and he even confirmed that even in 3days 🤣. Reality don set in, who is the real BOSS. Ukraine is now a slaughter ram for both Russia and US. Both of them would take their share peacefully 🤣

Treadway:
gbamsolutely.

E be like say most on here wanted the war to continue..Or let me rephrase, una want the war to end 'the right way🤣'. Trump say he no dey interested in funding any nonsense war again shikena. No money, no weapons, no intelligence coming from the USA anymore. The result? The war will be over prolly before end of the week, as should.

The END.

🤣, Ọwọ ti ba ogbẹni, You no get money, you Dey strong face, no worry, war go humble you Who strong face help. 🤣

wallg123:
Like the saying goes "beggars have no choice" Zelensky is already begging after US stopped military aid... Peace must be achieved

You are right, I didn’t know about this type of ads until now. 🤣

Goodenoch:
Google “London tube activist ads”.

People post them to mimic real ads. Of course they get taken down but they often go viral in the interim. I’ve looked this one up and it seems real.
