Anitaamich: Same here. Sept 8th Priority...decision mail 11th...nothing till now. I called UKVI again yesterday. They said to give them till Tuesday next week that I'll get my passport latest by then. If nothing still, I should let them know and they'll escalate it. |

whuzmhan: Thanks whuzmhan, I've been there (TLS) twice to check. They said it still hasn't gotten to them. They even seem clueless as to what might have happened. |

Hi folks, Any ideas what next step I should take? Looks like I'm beginning to lose my patience. Here's my timeline: Sept. 5: Applied for PRIORITY visa Sept. 8: Did biometrics at Abuja TLS Sept. 11: Got decision mail Up till now (15 days after biometrics), nothing else. Tracker is still on Level 3: Application at DMC I have written to UKVI and called them with their humongous paid service, and all I get is the generic response that they can confirm that a decision has been made and that I should wait till TLS contacts me to come for my passport. How much longer, they can't comment on that, they say. Has anyone had this kind of experience? How do I handle this? The wait is frustrating... Thanks. cc: justwise, mimilyrics, everyone |

Hi All, I tried doing a business name registration on CAC website, and I got this query: Reason recouch object and remove research What does this mean and what am I to do? Thanks. |

QueensRoad1: You can, but you'll likely get a generic response...something like the below: Thank you for contacting UK Visas and Immigration International Contact Centre. With regards to your query, I can confirm that we have made a decision on your application GWFxxxxxxx. We cannot discuss the outcome of your application on-line or by telephone. However the visa application centre will be in contact with you in regards to collection or delivery of your passport. We strongly recommend that you do not buy a non-refundable, non-flexible ticket to the UK, until your visa application has been approved and you have received your documents. You might want to consider waiting a little bit. |

Hey guys, What could be the problem? I did my biometrics at TLS Abuja on Tuesday, 8th Sept, and got decision mail on Friday, 11th Sept. Up till now, nothing. Application still at DMC stage on tracker. I got tired of waiting and went to TLS this afternoon...folks there said they haven't gotten my passport and they don't understand the delay. Today's the 7th working day after biometrics I paid for priority and did walk-in. Any ideas? 1 Like 1 Share |

REF: GWF0559xxxxx Please be advised that a decision was made on your visa application today. Your documents and visa decision will now be returned by commercial courier to the visa application centre where you applied (unless you paid for the courier fee in which case it will be returned directly to you). This can take a few days and be subject to unforeseen delays so please wait for the visa application centre to advise you when your documents and decision are ready for collection. Regards, UKVI Pretoria Biometrics was on Tuesday this week. Fingers crossed for now |

chnovpaul: For whoever finds this useful: Submitted visa application on Sept. 5, and I did a walk-in at the Abuja TLS center today. However, it came at a cost of the Flexi appointment. There was no interview or any indication of such. Paid for priority and hoping for a response in one week. |

Hello Everyone, Can anyone help with information about how to do a "Walk-In" into the Abuja TLS center? I need an urgent decision on my Tier 4 visa application due to my work. I would have selected the priority service but did not have that choice while I was filling my visa application form. I also tried the Prime Time Appointment option on TLS portal, but couldn't figure out how to make it work. My appointment date is Sept. 18 at the moment, but it will be difficult to wait till then as I need to make some work trips. I will appreciate any help in this regard. Thanks in advance. |

Celebrities / And Here's The Story Behind The "Think About It" Meme by chnovpaul(m): 11:43pm On Aug 17, 2020 |
I have seen this meme on Nairaland like a thousand times. Any time it comes to that "think about it" moment, it's this meme I remember. I had been wondering if this guy was Eddie Murphy or some relation... Turns out he's Nigerian... See for yourself... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vgLZRcVyHk

Just seeing this old thread. I ended up changing the gearbox entirely back then. This was after I had replaced the solenoids and changed the transmission fluid, and there was no difference. Thanks to those who responded though. 1 Like |
Travel / Re: Thread For Nigerians In Other African Countries by chnovpaul(m): 11:26pm On Jun 22, 2020 |
LazyFolk: Hi, Let me attempt to respond to your questions. What you're planning to do is something I've always wanted to do for a while, but haven't gotten the balls to finally do it. Anyways, to the responses: 1. You'll be better off with your cash, although not too much. Nowhere is 100% safe, and you don't want to get stranded after being mugged. On the other hand, keeping your money in the bank has its hassles too, especially with regards to being able to withdraw across West Africa. I know Ecobank has several branches in the region, and it may be easier getting your money in many of these countries with their card. 2. I'd go for Airbnb every day and 17 times on Fridays. For me, I find it a lot more flexible than hotels. Also, it's a way to connect with locals wherever you go, and you may be able to get useful tips from the folks you stay with. 3. I don't know of anyone planning this. I'd love to, but haven't got the time right now. 4. If you're willing to bear roaming charges on your Nigerian MTN sim, then that's okay. You'll be able to use it. A cheaper option will be to buy local sim cards especially in places where you'll be staying for a while. To get a sim card, they'll request for a means of ID, usually your international passport. Once you are able to present that, you'll get your sim card. The only thing is that by the time you're done with your trip, your bag will probably be full of sim cards...lol 5. Advice? I'd say you should go for this. The experience you'll get will be one you'll never forget. It can be life changing. I once did a road trip from Rwanda through Uganda to Kenya and Tanzania, and then back to Rwanda. It was one hell of an experience. I'm a little wary of your budget though. You mentioned you've got 200k for this trip...I'll suggest you review your budget again and be sure it'll take you the whole way and back. Last time I checked, there were no ferries running between Dakar and Praia (Cape Verde), and a flight might take a huge chunk out of your pocket. So, check again. You don't want to get stranded in a foreign land. But again, where's the fun in it if you don't get stranded...pun intended. Plan well, go, have fun, and come share with us. Don't forget to send pictures 8 Likes |

Hi All. I'm relatively new in dealing with stocks, but I've been following the current economic trends with keen interest. I'd like to invest in some of the dropping banking stocks. Someone here mentioned Zenith Bank will be a good deal. Can anyone please point me in the direction of verified and efficient stockbrokers? Please respond publicly. Thanks in advance. |
