You can spend your money. You just need 1250 to enter the account

acosfd:
Good morning my good people

To all the switching gurus

Please how long do I need leave my £1250 in the natwest account. Can I pay the money into the natwest account today and transfer to another account the following day, or does it have to be the account for a specific period?

babajeje123:

Nothing much. Passport, my bank statement and letter of invitation. I bought a returned ticket as I heard my parent would be denied entry without it.

Please did you get the tickets after the visa approval? I applied for my sister and mum. I and my other sister invited them individually.

All you need is your CAS (the issued by the uni)

Adebayo82:
As matter of urgency, I want to confirm if this action can fly . I want to switch from tier 4 Visa to tier 2 skilled worker visa. Is it necessary or is part of requirements to show proof of English for the tier 2 visa application. I have done with my Msc program, however I can't get my certificate because of outstanding school fees. I owed school 2k, this will be paid as soon as possible but not in plan for now. I want to submit the tier 2 application form now and the company is expecting me to resume 1st of July. Please foks I need your advice.

Does anyone know any freight company (that is into sea shipping)?

I want to ship heavy item (not food) from Nigeria.

I do both. But direct debit is better, sonyou dont forget to repay.

profemebee:
Hi Hi,

For the AMEX users here, pls what's the best way to make repayment ? do you use bank account (direct debit) or manually go online to pay via debit card?

I absolutely forgot I've been collecting avios and saw someone's comment about using it to book flight.

That post came at the right time as I just used mine for 5 days hotel booking for summer holiday.

Anyone need AMEX referral link, use mine please. Make we both collect avios. You get 8,000 and I'll get 4,000.

You will have to take your child for physical biometric captruring.

Theadoredone:
Hello Hello my people!

Please has anyone recently extended/renewed a Skilled Worker Dependant child Visa (Under 9 years old) within the UK?

Did you have to take your child (ren) physically to a Biometric center in the UK or were you able to use the App for Biometrics?

My husband and I were able to use the Biometrics App for ours but I'm wondering if it'll be the same for children or they'll just ask us to upload documents and that'll be all..

This information will be really helpful in planning but I can't seem to find a specific answer on the gov.uk website.

Many thanks my people

I used my BRP. Front and back

Opsycal:


Hello,
Please what photo ID did you use? It's not accepting my BRP and Naija passport.

If you have a saving accoutn with chase, you have to close it before the switch can happen.

I switched chase to first direct

hustla:


So the normal current account one wont come with payments right?

Looks like Chase cant be switched for Firstdirect

I switched starling account to Royal Bank of Scotland and i got £200 bonus

rinzylee:


Nawa o....maybe they don't like me. I tried switching my Starlin. Freshly opened though. I seem to have fallen in love with my NatWest. Not thinking if shutting it down.

I switchedmy Chase current account. No, i didnt use credit card

rinzylee:


They kept saying I am not qualified. Do you use a credit card? I have no form of credits.

Depends on the account type you open

hustla:


Heard there are caveats to it and monthly Payments to make. How true is this pls?

That's the reason why I haven't tried to make the switch

Looking to switch my starling

I dont knowabout Lloyds but you download First Direct bank app, open an account with them.

You then switch one of your current account. Pay in £1000+ to your new account after the switch is complete and wait for the bonus to be paid

lightofjoy:
Pls how did you do it. What of someone using Lloyds. Thanks

In other news, I don receive First Direct £175 switch bonus. Free money dey sweet o 🥳🤩

After the switch is complete

starboychan:


Hello quick one please, should I transfer the £1250 after the switch is complete or can I do it before then ?

Idan!!!

The switch process takes roughly a week, the you wait another week after meeting the criteria for switch bonus.

So anticipate about 2-3 weeks from switch to bonus credit

Phayie:


Can I switch to natwest this week and then close the natwest account and switch it to first direct next week

Unfortunately, revolut account was not acceptedwhen i tried.

igbsam:


Shey i fit switch my revolute account ni, make i go use the switch money chop gigantic lobster

Yes, money in old account counts towards the £1250[quote author=starboychan post=122943288][/quote]

I tried, it was not accepted

starboychan:



Please e jor , shae I fit switch revolut?

Yes, I switched my Starling to RBS and Chase to First Direct.

hustla:




Do they allow switch from starling bank / chase /monese?

Download app (either RBS or NatWest), open account, then apply to switch your old account to them. Deposit £1250 into the account. You get credited with £200 within 7 days

Same process for First Direct. The only difference is you pay £1,000 within 60 days of opening account. You get £175 in 28 days...

Yeah, it affected my credit score, lost about 10 points but my credit score has gone back up and it's now higher than before (due to other factors like low credit utilisation, on-time payment, etc)

starboychan:


Abegi how una dey switch ? Me sef wan chop money .

Does switching affect credit score?

£200 switch bonus from RBS entered... Free money sweet 😋

Abeg, for those who switched to first direct, how long did it take to receive bonus?

Hello gurus
Please is it normal for agent to give out house like this despite that I call their attention to it during the inspection?
I have not moved in yet and I plan to write and call them to do the needful.

Pls advise.

It's not. I was in a similar situation last year although, I didn't take any step aside contact LL but he didn't do anything. I later moved out cos the condition of the house was so poor but I was told I could have reported LL to the council.

Register on HMRC page to check your tax code and history of payments made.

Thanks elders...
I equally have a pending issue with the man before the preg saga surfaced.

Was paid completely (working hours) from December until February however in March i discovered was short paid with almost £630
I demanded for an explanation and insisted it was incorrect
They requested for my working hours, which I provided every single thing they needed
Later accepted they would resolve it perhaps it was an erorr from the account team and promised to have my complete money credited ASAP.

Just yesterday, they announced it was my tax that was deducted and i asked which type of tax... I told them its my first job besides I thought I should enjoy tax free for my first 12k as a care worker...
I Requested for my pay slip (which they have never given me before) and I have not gotten a clear response though they agreed to prepare all of it but I am scared they might just doctor it like inec

I thought I should add this too
Please elders I also need una advise... is it possible to double check if I was truly taxed? Via pay slip or are there means to verify this claim.

Thanks for all the efforts and input
