You are doing well, the gods are with you

HiddenID:
Good morning awesome people. Here's my latest:

MoneyFex transfer rate is currently N546 to £1

I used them last night at 10Pm after hearing some good stuff about them. I was credited this morning. This is my first transaction with them, so I can't really tell how fast they are as they needed to complete my identity check.

I used their website https://moneyfex.com/

I'm not affiliated with any of them, I just like sharing so that others can benefit

You wan spend am on monika bah? issokay

Lexusgs430:
Nah only pin I don receive o......... Let's spend yours first, I promise, when my card come....... You no go see me.........

Wetin Transsion do you? they are all related though even OnePlus

And Infinix mobile was born out of Sagem

Lexusgs430:
Laughter wan tear my belle......... I give you permission to shoot me on both legs, if you see me use any transsion device.......

lol...compare fes na, you cant judge a shark by its inability to hunt in the bush

Lexusgs430:
I demand an apology............


Piranha dey comot face, goldfish too wan comot head..........

Trying to do a comparison between these two and Infinix Note 7

Lexusgs430:
Oppo and Oneplus, are cooked from the same pot......

After the cooking process is over, one turns left. Whilst the other turns right..........

Oshey...awon eyan Ned Nwoko

Lexusgs430:
Have you tried capital one? Like play Like play, because of you I tried them............

They only conduct soft check on your credit details, it leaves no footprint on your credit file .......

They don offer me £7500 credit limit........ Make i quick quick go find another wife wey i go marry.......

You can try aqua they seem to offer a credit building card to help build credit record...but bros, use it as a debit card oooo

Braket:
Funny enough, I sort of have all of these.

I have a gym contract for over a year now,
I recently just signed a mobile internet contract and also registered to vote. My name is on the voting register now.

The payment for these contracts are direct debit bill. So I seem not to understand where the problem is.

£22/h is very cheap, you are lucky you got that.

For a 'complete noob' start off with 15 hours, see how you go with that and then top up with prolly 5 hours or as required.

penurypredator:
;DIn all honesty boss the least I’m seeing is £22/hr
And plss how many hours do you think I should enroll for knowing fully well that I’m a complete noob.

Read through the link Bourne007 posted and digest it.

There are lots of people that will always give BS advises about laws/regulations not valid and how people are having their way....DO NOT LISTEN to them.

gov.uk has most answers

Teepp10:
Good day good people.

I am on tier 2 visa with no recourse to public funds. Someone is telling me I can get child benefit on a child born here, that it'snot public funds. Is this true please?

I don't want any shikini money that will affect me during ILR application o, please come to my aid

Thank you

To be candid, its gonna be quite difficult but then there are options. Factors to determine will be: Your profession or your spouse profession (This might be able to get you a tier-2), How much savings have you got up till now that might be used for studentship?

@ bolded, there will always be hassle but you've got to overcome it. So much assistance here also.

deegov:
Hello house,

Please as a middle class nigerian earning close to #100,000 a month with huge responsibilities how can i successfully migrate to UK with little hassle and with a projected budget of how much so also the viz a viz the process flow.

Kindly assist to treat urgent.

Regards.

He has been a confirmed bachelor since na...na why the correct gurl bounce am from joining her, frustrated and entitled human being.

Lexusgs430:
He is now so bitter....... I wonder the type of bitter leaf, he used in cooking his soup..... Now that he is a confirmed bachelor............

Eeyah, omase oh...Ndo sogbo? So you at least know some people are doing good but you are only frustrated towards your wife hereby making it general. Anyways, fill yourself with as much frustration as you can.... im sure she is enjoying herself and would prolly just be lafing at your outburst.

Again, pele oh

LuvlyIva:
Nonsense! Other mental health care assistant are doing good but her own na story story every day. Can'nt even make £18,600 for spouse visa. Abegki!!! I am free. Nigeria I am really enjoying this country. Just relaxing with nice weather. All the best to u all in the UK. When our government repair our country I no want to see Una for Nija. Lol!!!

My broda, from the initial story sef wifey don settle her own case by her sef...na part of wetin dey cause this new found love from frustration. Me a nor talk anything oh

AWFCNAIJA:
I agree... He is doing well in the Nigeria of his dreams. But sha nobody should call us to settle matter of wife say wife no say....

As simple as that, well said jare. @Lexusgx, una never talk the meaning of Monika ooo

missjekyll:
If we deprive Mr LuvlyIva of his newfound contentment with Nigeria,will this make your life happier today?

I say let him enjoy his view. Travelling is not for everyone.

Welldone Mr LuvlyIva. You are quite right in your summation. You are doing very well in Nigeria,more than you would have done in the UK.

Outcome of travel frustration...Blame him not!

Smartmed:
This guy sounds so ridiculous

Save yourself the stress, no need for more explanation. You are only arguing with yourself, besides your data go soon finish.

LuvlyIva:
Hmmmm! I hear you. Why can't one enjoy one job in the UK? So some one that works as health care assistant can't enjoy his/ her job? Atleast they pay them £1500 a month. Why can't that person save

Here in Nigeria I know many that get paid 30,000 they are comfortable with it. The low income earners still save in Nigeria.


You guys said one time that one doesn't need degree to get a good job. Then how can one get a good job without degree and live comfortable in the UK??

When you have a sega family com game and its extremely difficult for you to get a PS4, you do everything possible to make your sega look like the best.

Like I said earlier, that guy is just having fun. He knows not what he sayeth!

missjekyll:
Sipping tea.

Interesting.

I m happy you changed your mind about travelling. Now that you are comfortable, please be sending your wife money for hair and makeup monthly.once she is back on her feet ,you guys can replan.

see how well you are doing here,but you wanted to leave it to go depend on a lady who is sheltering in place because of covid-19. E no gell na. Welldone

When frustration enter one's mind, its worse than poison!

I just know the guy is feeding Nairaland with bicycle tales out of prolly desperation or fun

Lexusgs430:
You're sounding defeated........

1M is under £2K..... Need I say any more.......

This guy is an obvious joker, while location shows London, you still come here to give us faabu of all sorts.

Ma je ki ara to nse pressup visit e oh

LuvlyIva:
Nigeria you know now. Our president is Buhari.

My beloved country. I just realized it that if one have a good job in Nigeria, one will be happy in this country and be happy than in the UK where one work y ass off. I am very free in Nigeria and I am not relocating again. A country that my wife has bin for years, she can't even save penny while me in Nigeria, just five months I av saved close to 1M. All I see in the UK is just the beauty, that is all. All y savings goes back to the system. I now like my country Nigeria and very comfortable.

I agree with you 100%.
Especially with the new scam strategy called 'Local Content' - Nigerians are paid BS compared to those Indians and likes.

An Indonesian was part of my team in Nigeria and I was his supervisor, but guy makes more than 10x my pay and more than 18x the pay of Nigerians in his job grade. Who be HR: Nigerian, Who be MD: Nigerian, Who is the problem: Nigerian!

RalphJean:
You stand to be corrected. Good.
Yes, Black Nigerians can be RACIST against BLACK Nigerians.
Ever been denied a job (by a Nigerian) in which you are 100% qualified, and same job is given to a Lebanese or Indian man who is only 40% qualified?


Remind me, what is racism again?

Bros, you never answer @Mimzyy oh

Lexusgs430:
Now we have parity on bus travel for kids (11 - 16) year olds......

TFL cancelled that scheme in London.......

Learning from awa Boris, check the response in bold

Ace721:
Hi fellow Nairalanders,

i'm in my final year at unical, i would really love to work and further my studies in the UK, but i have a few questions:

1. Is it worth it to leave Nigeria to work and live in UK? Yes and No, depends on the exact situation you find yourself and your plans
2. How easy is it to get a job? (I'm in the medical field, radiography to be exact) Easy and not easy, depends on you
3. Which city is the cheapest buh best city to start? Not sure why you dey find cheapest city What is the cost of living(rent)? Cheap and expensive, depends on you and what you want. Room share or 4 bdr house
4. Is it really hard to save money in UK? Yes and No. If you learn from history, history wont repeat itself
5. How much can i survive on for a month? Totally depends on you, but if uve got a job you might survive
6. Can i work while going to school? If student visa, 20 hours per week..nor think say you go exceed am oh

i just want to know if it would be a good decision to make, and to know what i would face whent i get there...the advantages and disadvantages.
Advice on the way of life in UK would also be appreciated.


i'm waiting for a response, thank you in advance.

Biko, you for just kuku kee the guy na.

His heartbeat by now would be x25

Inkredible:
1: Not at all.
2: Very hard something.
3: London o. Very cheap eh.
4: For wia! Easy as cake.
5: £10
6: Why na? Is one after the other.

Advantage: "I'm in abroad now"

Sorry oh,

I actually tried to mind my business but that spirit wey dey always push Lexusgs430 nor gree me.

How much do you actually think you can 'settle' someone with from <£60?

When asking for such assistance, abeg nor put anything regarding settle.

Baldwretch:
Good day ma. Please I could use some help or suggestions.

So I have 10 pounds that I need to cash out for Naira. I also have another $50 in visa. They are all virtual cards earned doing surveys on my VPN. I am in a fix currently because I don't have any supporting UK or US documents to use these money transfer service. I tried Ace but I couldn't proceed when I had to submit these details. I am not even sure that the $50 would work with money transfer service because of the card issuer restrictions, but specifically for the £10, would you help? I will settle you.

Quite similar to ACE, I guess both of them are the highest.

omopapa:
Wait, y’all praising ace, have u seen smallworld’s rate

Check out for Aldi or Lidl, they also sell 17p per bottle.

profemebee:
damnnn..

no ASDA here.. been buying 50p water from tesco/sainsburys..

That sparkling water tastes like Tonic Soda in naija that year...cant drink it at all

Lexusgs430:
Bottled spring water, sparkling water and red wine (Shiraz)..........

It is not compulsory to register for the update if you only need it for the first time or just the company you are with. If you will need it for other companies/purposes, then it will be IMPORTANT else you might have to keep re-doing the DBS. Update service prevents that by having your details updated each time and the companies can verify online.

Also, note update is not available for BASIC checks.

profemebee:
Hello @Lexus

Does one still have to register for auto update service withing 2 weeks of receiving DBS Certificate? i got mine recently and didn't know about that.

My company arranged for me to fill the forms and all... did the checks.. and some docs got posted home..

If you plan to study in London : each dependant must show £845 each month for 9 months.
If outside London: each dependant must show £680 each month for 9 months.

isetoluwase:
Good evening all, pls how much do I need to show for each of my dependant for visa application?
Is microfinance banks acceptable?

Welcome here, they usually ask more questions but you just have to be prepared...enjoy your settlement period.

H0tbabe:
I just arrived UK and was asked many questions including why i haven't travelled before now, if u haven't booked an accomodation or precise place u r going, please do it before going, that almost landed me in trouble, all the best to u all

Why not go to 'another country in Europe' also for three days so your comparison might be better of...also you could try to describe what you saw in 3 days, maybe we will learn one or two

Bankalert:
Just came back from the UK, London specifically on a 3 day visit, through my Office(Goverment office). My experiences so far have been a bit overwhelming. But to an extent, I wouldn't consider moving permanently to the UK. Within the three days I stayed and toured London, I learnt quite enough to know to remain in Nigeria if UK is the only option I have.
I hope to go there for studies though this year and come back....

But my plan is to move to another Country in Europe after my studies in UK. Is this feasible? I mean using a UK certificate to work in let's say Germany, France or Finland for example.

Completely wrong, it is always different for everyone!

Bankalert:
Right... I met quite a lot of black immigrants in Local stores in London... I assume this is the easiest job to get for blacks In the UK.
