Good evening, please I am a prospective Chester student for September, unconditional offer granted. Please how did you pay the balance and were you offered any scholarship

I havent paid the balance just my deposit. I am for may 2022. Paid through cbn portal. Was offered automatic international discount of 2000pounds making my school fess 10950pounds

AOI2016:
Hello Everyone,
For those who paid their deposit through FORMA, i want to know how long it took for CBN to validate your application before disbursement.

Depends on your bank. CBN doesnt have any role to play

SerendipityHere:
You opened the account online? or you had an existing account wiht them?

Yes you can. Call their customer care to send you the forms

AlphaUno:



You can go ahead to get your CAS shield access first but don't know if you can send those docs in bits

Are you working with an agent? or you are doing yourself? I wasnt informed about any CAS shield. Chester only sent me genuine intention to study form and CAS request form to fill and send to the international office.

SerendipityHere:
Hello, did you have to go to Globus bank before you could do this?

no everything was done online with frequent calls to globus bank for follow up

leogho:
Hi,

For those who have used E-form A, at what point did you enter your student ID number?

No provision for that on the form. Once you upload the paper that contains your payment details from your school, your bank will automatically get your student Id no from there.

AlphaUno:

If you applied to Chester Uni for May intake and you already have your offer(s), they are in the process of issuing CAS.
First step is to get CAS shield access and submit required docs. Thereafter, expect CAS between 7 to 10 days or less

And if you can't wait for them to send the access, kindly mail them on this email add
chester@cas-shield.com
to fast track things

Thanks for this information. My deposit has been paid and received. Is it ok to submit the CAS request form and Genuine intention to study first incase there are corrections, pending when my pof will mature in the next 2weeks?

Mannymanny:

Lol
We wey pay 45k-50k be mumu
I met over 20 people one on one when I went to collect my passport. None paid less than 45k. I know someone that paid 25k and haven’t gotten his passport for over 6 months now.

The last time i renewed my passport, I paid 40k. this was last year. Prices have even gone up. I asked the Immigration officer but online its 25k nau why cant I do online. He laughed and told me bluntly its like you dont want your passport at all. Oya go online na. Nobody will attend to you. We already know how Nig is, so I am quite perplexed when one argue these things.

Emmyzdon:
Globus Bank is slow not the way it is been portrayed here.

Once you apply on the cbn portal you have to call their customer care to escalate the application.

Lordfiido:

How certain are you about the CAS ISSUANCE starting from tommorow ? This is because they just started the cas shield stuff last week.

Whats CAS Shield please?

AlphaUno:





Most courses at the Uni of Chester for May intake are almost gone. In fact, by end of tomorrow 7th, if you are yet to get an offer, you can quickly put in for Sept.

Also, starting from tomorrow, they should start issuing CAS for the above intake

Pls was it from the school you got this information?

For people having probs with paying deposit, i recommend Globus bank they are very fast and I got my Telex in 2days and you do not need to go to the bank. So its even an advantage for people already in the uk that want to use the form A to pay remaining fees.

SerendipityHere:
Hello, Pls in my application on the tradesystem portal I chose T&T Transfer. I didnt know I was supposed to choose Telex oo..Pls what's the implication?

I already submitted since Last Friday. Do I cancel everything and reapply? OR what can I do?

I think you should. others can give their opinion

Newbie123:


Please do you get Telex before or after you are debited

After. its like a receipt

Emmyzdon:
Pls is it possible for someone’s FORM A application to be approved without it reflecting on portal.

On the portal it is still showing ADB reviewer whereas the bank claims it has been approved. Telling me receiving a telex copy takes 7 days.

Has anyone had dis experience with Globus bank?

scroll down to the last page om the portal. you may see remarks approved

freeboiz:



Thanks alot, just to confirm pls how long is the result / certificate validity after issuance

6months

freeboiz:
Good day everyone, has anyone been able to book an appointment for a TB test lately. I have been trying to use the webiste but "No appointment date seems to be available"

Yes I have and its a less busy period for them so they respond immediately. Mail them preferably in the morning with the subject line: URGENT TB appointment booking. Body of the letter should contain proposed dates and times with passport no

yinks0067:
Hello House,
I'm planning towards September intake at Salford but my passport is going to expire by December. I went to the Nigeria Immigration office and i was told i won't be able to renew the passport until 6 months (June) before the expiry date. I want to kickstart my application by June which means a renewal will slow things down as i have to wait 6 weeks to get a new one. Can I apply for a Uk visa with a passport validity of 6 months or less? I want to know what minimum validity should be on your passport at the point of Visa application.

Pls help

You can fast track your passport and get it in less than 2weeks provided your nin doesnt have issues. So go to any nin office to check your full details are on your nin profile and update if any because update takes time. Goodluck!

I intend using my sister s usa credit card to pay for ihs and visa fees. Is it ok please?

Midex88:


Pls anybody on this.... Will greatly appreciate

Try Hull, Chester, Lincoln, Liverpool hope

Allsmyles:
Hi everyone
Please who can confirm the charges for PTA.

Uba debited me about 11k initially then later 5k and another 5k some days later.

Make i know as I wan take hold them

At what rate in dollars were u charged?

Please oo an agent told my friend that proof of funds is supposed to be in black market rate of 780 and not 560 oanda rate. I am confused because uk gov stated on its website to use oanda as reference.

nice2men:
Thank you. I appreciate.
A friend suggested getting a UK based immigration lawyer to help with getting a waiver because of her disability before applying. And that application should not be submitted blindly as UKVI do not act on sentiments.
Do you think this is correct?

Yes your friend is quite right. Best to get an immigration lawyer to advise you accordingly. Wishing you all the best

I just confirmed from iom that your PASSPORT NO should be used as payment reference when paying for tb test. Hope this helps someone as I have been seeing questions on this issue.

SPDAZZY:


They said it could take 5-7 working days. Debited on Wednesday.

At what rate were you debited?

SPDAZZY:


OK, thanks. Will wait till I get the telex and possibly get a clearer picture.

Was debited on tuesday and yet to get telex. when did they debit you and how long does it take to get telex?

themonsieur:


Thanks for the response. 579 is ridiculously high sha. How long did it take them to process your transaction? Thanks

2days

Davdav01:
Pls how long does it take Globus bank to pay for tuition?

2days if all documents are uploaded

SPDAZZY:


OH, I see. Mine was 10,268 and yours?

3000pounds

SPDAZZY:


I used globus too but they debited me in dollars instead of pounds and the figure ended up being over what it should have been.

Please how did you know you were charged 24k cos my debit carries only the dollar value I was charged and when I converted my needed pounds to dollars, there seemed to be an additional 100 dollars which is certainly higher than 24k naira.

I don't even understand.

Hmmmm how much was your deposit? maybe the higher the money the higher the charges. Globus bank actually convert the pounds to dollars for payment.

UserTee:


To be honest, I don’t know how to use this platform but I need help�

Cant even find your previous message. But can deduce your husband works in the uk that he was sponsored right? and you werent able to produce a bank statement dates required?
