We waited anxiously for DHL to deliver but they didn't because of weekend.
We got our visas yesterday evening finally.

It wasn't an easy wait o. If you have money, pls pay for priority because High BP is real o. We endured a lot during the 3 weeks wait.
This journey started early 2020 and I have been reading this thread everyday religiously.
I must thank everyone on this forum for all the helpful contributions. I gained a lot.
My advice is for everyone to try and read far and wide, use Google a lot and ukvi sit (gov.uk) has almost all the information you require as well as your school website and course page. Don't also shy away from asking when you hit a brick wall too.

You can do everything all by yourself and it is far better because you are sure of what you submitted.

Another piece of advice: if you come across any information you feel might be relevant to you during the process of application, screenshot and keep it in your picture gallery. It is better that way because sometimes this information may be difficult to search for when you need them most.
Over this 2 years I have over a thousand screenshots from nairaland alone.

They gave you the exact one month??

EBUNME:
One month before your course start date.

My advice, don't bother running around from branch to branch, will be a waste of time.. just politely ask the service rep to assist you with their newspaper publication contact... Let them do it asap.. you change the name and off you go... I think it's SOM that anything concerning alteration of name on bvn requires a newspaper publication.

Star19:
Thank you for your response but my issue is not even with the affidavit.
I was at my bank yesterday & the customer rep I met asked to get an affidavit & newspaper publication of change of name.
This is very strange to me because it is not like I’m changing my name or I want to stop bearing my middle name. I just want the middle name removed so that the name on my bvn can correspond with the rest of my documents. I plan on going to my branch on Monday to see if they will accept just the affidavit.

Yeah
