TravelRe: General German Student Visa Enquiries Part 5 by bayonl: 5:04pm On Sep 20, 2018
Yes it does but another quick one....can I unblock with from fintiba with Deutsche?
Yobaby:
Is good to have both N26 and Deutsche bank. I opened Sparkasse for all deductions to come from there.

A friend here advised best is Deutsche bank.

N26 gives me fast service - transferring cash made easy.

Hope it helps.
TravelRe: General German Student Visa Enquiries Part 5 by bayonl: 10:39pm On Sep 19, 2018
is n26 better than DeutscheBank or Sparkasse ?
Yobaby:
Unblocked Xpatrio in 4days after getting city registration, N26 and enrollment letter.

Advice: Just open N26 before you land here....
For Xpatrio, you are left with providing the city registration and enrollment with the details of your bank details filled on Activation form 07.

You get a mail that your money would be sent to N26 within 3-5 working days.

Whenever you unblock they send the first cash... afterwards is 1st of every month.

Congrats bro... what time did you take your passport to the embassy? [Qquote author=ubsilas post=71082399]On the 46th day, my Assurance Mail (AM) arrived. Sincerely it was not funny, I was always refreshing my mail morning and night.
For whatever reason it took that long, I don't know but to the glory of God it came which is the most important thing right now.

From someone that never believed that it was possible to get a Visa without the help of an agent or agency, I pour out my heartfelt gratitude to everyone on this platform that made it possible for us to scale through the numerous hurdles without being found wanting. God bless you all.

The plan for masters had always been next year, and I was looking at Canada and US. But going through their nairaland forum to see how they were dashing people rejection sha, I had to do a U-turn grin...until someone advised people there to stop killing themselves and wasting money but to try Germany, that a good number of courses are taught in English (information that I didn't have before), then I decided to check for my course in Germany via DAAD, and behold I found the course though in a Private University but with a cheaper tuition compared to Canada and USA.
This was in April. So that was when my running around started, with the loads of info here it was so smooth and timely, except waiting for AM sha. Even though enrollment and lectures resumed today, I was able to get extension till the end of the month.

Application for Admission: 2nd May, 2018
Admission letter: 18th May, 2018
Application for Visa Interview Date: 18th May, 2018
Visa Interview: 26th July 2018
AM: 10th September 2018
School: Hochschule Fresenius, Idstein (Private)
Course: International Pharmacoeconomics and Health Economics
State: Hessen

Meanwhile I took my passport and travel insurance to embassy today today grin ...I no wan hear plenty stories.
Thank you guys.

To God be the glory.

P.S.: For the Axa Mansai travel insurance, just follow the steps given by Honourable Seyi, it is very easy. In 10mins I got my insurance document sent to my mail, and I paid with my ATM card. N17k[/quote]

After checking of documents I was ushered into the main embassy building.
