Is it possible to convert Naira to GBP using Lemonade?

Someone tried earlier this year, he was debited in naira but not credited pounds.

He had to file for dispute to get the money back.

Short answer, no.

mwenhen:
Nothing yet, still waiting. I sent an email to my MP yesterday to help me check on my application. The Home office has been contacted by my MP this morning, so I’m waiting for their response.

Good to read you have contacted your MP to help find out the status of your application.

Please keep us updated.

Hello house, Anyone recently switched to Health and care visa ( application from inside UK) please how long did it take for decision?
It's 3 weeks now.. nothing yet

Switching within UK takes 8 weeks. I've been waiting for a decision and my application is now 19 weeks.

UKVI said they encountered technical error with my application (whatever that means).

Me too dey enjoy my IPTV .......... The beauty of watching American, Canadian & UK versions of TV programmes, is a bliss ...... I am currently obsessed with Dr POL .........

Assuming you have a credit card, with a spend limit of £4000....... That can be classified, spend money on visa applications..........

Boss, I emailed through nairaland mail. Please help with the IPTV plug by responding. Thank you

CheesyTee:
I just realised delay of my visa decision may be due to wrong occupation code use on my CoS.

I have notified my employer about this and hopefully it can be resolved. Even though it is most likely they will need to apply for another CoS and me, another visa.

The delay was not due to wrong occupation code. The MP nd my employer contacted UKVI and they replied they had technical issue and they're resolving it but the wait is tiring.

This is the 17th week..

jumpshot:
I did 733 yesterday on lemonade

I did 740 on flutterwave yesterday

Please has anyone switched from Student Visa to work visa recently?

My application is now 16 weeks since biometric and UKVI keeps saying they're having technical issues. The MP also got same response.

This is tiring

Uzonma:
Good morning house,
Please for those that have made visa application from inside the UK, were you able to get free biometric appointment time, if yes please any tips?
Have been trying to book appointment but can only see paid ones, heard free appointments are released every 9:am but nothing was released this morning

Please help
Thank you

If you filled application on the phone, it will prompt you to use the app to capture.

You have to keep checking for free days. I paid biometric fee of £75 per applicants.

My people... my visa switch from t4 to t2 no gree comot and its been 15 weeks since biometric date.

I have called UKVI, involved the MP and their response was they encountered IT issue with my application and they are working to resolve it.

This one dey worry me o.

Goodnew13:

Refund of IHS payment

Good morning house i don't know if this is the right place to confirm this information. If not kindly direct me to the right group.
pls i am trying to assist my friend working in health care to get refund of his ihs. i was told that when one work for six months one can apply for refund of ihs. i am trying to apply but is saying that if the application is successful it will be send to the bank or card used to pay the ihs. i am confused because my friend used his dollar account and card from Nigeria to make payment. How can this be transferred to Nigeria account??
why not our account here in the uk. how can one take the money since it will take years to go back home.

please is there anybody in the health sector that has successfully applied? kindly put me through pls. see attached . Thank you

You can withdraw in the UK if you used Dollar card for IHS payment.

HaywhyA:
from Nigeria?

I'm in the UK

HaywhyA:
please how long does standard take?

Usually within 8 week but mine is taking longer than that. No non-straightforward mail either. My application will be 13 week by Monday since biometric.

oge18:
Please I need advise oo...I am a student that is about to switch to tier 2 healthcare visa. I came in Sept 2021 do I need to use a bank statement for my tier 2visa application? Also is there anyone that has switched from student to tier 2 without completing their course?

If your employer ticks Yes to providing maintenance fee, you don't need pof. If no you will have to provide bank statement since you have not spent 1yr in the UK.

Standard visa processing period is quite longer you may pay for priority servi e if you can accord it.

oge18:
Howfa any update?

Nothing yet. I'm tired of waiting.

I guess they have backlogs of application cos this wait is tiring.
