nice

Welcome on board sir

scantee:
150k? She must be high on TIN alcohol, may i know the branch/state where u went for this? Databoy247 has said it all, u should'nt pay more than 25k for VAT. Maybe the lady noticed ur new into this.. There is no way she will backdate to 3yrs ago is she mad? My Dear TCC/TIN is free after you must have paid for VAT. naija i hail o

hehehehehe, hustlers everywhere. In fact if she registered in April, she may not pay 25k at all. The whole process will be free. The rule is that if your CAC registration is less than 6 months then you get everything for free (apart from the 3k or 4k tip for the whole process to be faster). But if it exceeds 6 months then it attracts 25k. From the next year, the payment then drops to 20k annually.

Freshtomato:
Hi good morning Scantee/databoy
I have been following this thread since day one and you guys are doing a good job. May God bless you both.

I need help with this pls:

I registered a business name around april this year and was advised to get a TIN, Tax clearance cert and Vat.
I went to Firs office close to me and I was given some forms to fill after filling them I was directed to a lady nd she asked me to pay One hundred and fifty thousand naira. According to her, they are taxing me from 2012 till date. I don't understand this at all. I'd appreciate it If you guys can be so kind to shed some light on this. Thanks in advance

If you registered your business this year, you are not supposed to pay more than 25k. The lady is trying to exploit you.

It was the same search that produced VBHOSTNET the self acclaimed "best web hosting company in Nigeria" only for me to discover it is uploading your website into a leaking server.

Now what I want is a user recommended service based on personal experience. Any recommendation guys?

If you are looking for a reliable webhost, i can recommend two options for you.

1. www.whogohost.com
2.trudigits.com

Dual core gave you some advise and from what he said you should have been able to pick his expertise from his speech. He wont tell you he runs one, because he knows alot of peeps will do that for him. His company is reliable and he knows it. What the heck, we all know it. Read excerpts below;

Slyr0x:
I use Trudigits and I have never for once experienced any downtime. .Infact, I currently host 3 websites with them and I've successfully converted more than 10friends of mine to using them. .

Another great thing about them is that they don't joke with their security. .

Trust me, If I get 100 web design projects today, I'm soooo sure Trudigits is gon host them all. .

Y'all should try them out today. .

DualCore1:
What you call a limitation is what we call transparency.
Personally I am yet to see Seagate, Western Digital, Toshiba (and the rest) make Hard disks with unlimited storage capacity.
Until we start seeing hardrives with unlimited storage capacity in the market that are tested and proven, TruDigits will NEVER offer webhosting plans with unlimited storage space and hide under the guise of some phony terms of service. We are too decent and transparent for rough play. What you see is what you get.
Feel free to read more on this here: http://trudigits.com/wiki/index.php?title=Unlimited_hosting

Morrelinko:
Bin with trudigits Hosting since last year and i have to say that it should be on the africa's top 5 webhosts. Things to note from my experience...
1. Good customer care support. I give them thumbsup for that.
2. Payment is so easy.
3. If your site uses lots of server resources, don't go there. My first VPS account with over 40 sites always had its servers going down. I registered for another VPS, split the sites and so far has been ok.
4. This is one big reason i cannot go for a hosting outside nigeria.... I Remember the last nationwide protest that i could not withdraw to pay for my overdue payment... Trudigits postponed my grace period untill the protest was over...
Now, try this with hostgator... If i hear say they nor 'nack ur site akpako'....
From me, trudigits is a life saver. Just give it a try... Infact, Don't just give it a try, start parking now.

dexed:
Trudigits is a very good host, I've been using them for about a year nd 7 months. So far, I'm satisfied and would recommend them to anyone looking to host their sites. The support system is cool and you get more than you pay for. For about 19months that I've been with them I only experienced downtime once and it was for few hours before everything came back to normal. I host a site that has about 600+ users with them and none of the users has ever complained about accessing my site, in short hosting with trudigits is cool. I give them a rating of 4.8 out of 5

The list is endless....but i can boldly recommend trudigits or whogohost. Dual Core, you dey owe me beer oh, bw, where have you been??

Hello friends, my new tech start-up, recently launched a project called OfficeManager. I observed that there are A LOT of local and indigenous contracting firms legally registered in Nigeria but they are all geting frustrated because of their limited access to contract opportunities.

From a survey conducted, it was discovered that the problem isn't lack of contract opportunities, but lack of information and data. Hence, the solution; www.officemanager.com.ng. It is an online portal where both existing and aspiring contractors across the country can register and have unlimited access to latest contract opportunities, bid invitations, training, hundreds of official documents for download and lots more.

Our target is to partner with government establishments and multinational organizations to directly receive publications on their tender requests and contract opportunities directly to our online portal. With this solution, we hope to reach out to thousands of contracting firms across the country simultaneously so they can have direct access to data and latest opportunities on our online portal, and mobile apps.

Currently we have been listed as a participant on the Diamond Bank BET contest.

NigerianEye gathered that members of House of Representatives were shamefully fighting in presence of some secondary school students who are on an excursion to the National Assembly.


In the house of reps, lawmakers loyal to Yakubu Dogara, the speaker, have taken custody of the mace to pre-empt moves to seize it by anti-Dogara members.

Many APC lawmakers are still unhappy with Dogara and Bukola Saraki, senate president, for upstaging the party’s preferred candidates for their positions.

Fracas ensued few moments after Dogara commenced proceedings for the day.

The house was to decide on the remaining principal officers but some lawmakers disrupted the sitting and attempted to hijack the mace.

The APC leadership is proposing Femi Gbajabiamila, defeated by Dogara in the June 9 election, as house leader, Alhassan Doguwa deputy house leader, Mohammed Monguno chief whip and Pally Iriase deputy chip whip.

Here at OfficeManager, we have a track record of serving corporate organizations and make businesses stand out. So, we have rolled out a new campaign tagged “Get a website now, and pay later…”.

This might be an opportunity to own a corporate website. The reason for doing this is to help those with trust issues. Alot of people are skeptical about paying money to someone they don't know for a service. So we practically changed the game. How bout we design the website and launch it live without collecting a penny from you. Then after some days, you pay for the website?

What do you think?
