seborrhic: Nobody forced him to apply to the school. Nobody begged him. Asides these it was made known to him,which he also admitted that there are religious rules and norms for anyone that accepts admission there. Since he knew he couldn't cope,why not respectfully decline the admission offered? I stand with the school 120%. The school is a private one,with it's own religion based rules and regulations.If u know u can't cope,seek admission elsewhere. He said himself that he started misbehaving since 2017 and after two years, he has been disciplined. Let's wait for MURIC |

luvinhubby: It is in their website, brochures and student handbook, he paid, signed, collected and read them before he applied and was admitted. He has no excuse It's like saying a car looks like Honda Accord. You bought it and read the manual that says it's Toyota. You should have protested from day 1. The guy enrolled in the school in 2017 and continued to flout the rules from then till December, 2019. That person is cantankerous |

Biglittlelois: Nobody makes it look like anything, if you read their student handout and rules and regulations, you'd see it's faith based, if you cant cope, leave. That's the only thing. A phone can look like Android, but read the instructions to know if it's Android or IOS. It's simple. That's why there's a caveat T&C |

davide470: My personal advice will be for you to stick with the bus (from Chatelet) and avoid taking the RER trains at Chatelet during rush hour. Alternatively, you can take the M4 (Metro 4) from Chatelet to Gare du Nord between the hours of (6:30 - 9:30)am and (3:30 - 6:30)pm - this is still rush hour though but the metro is better than RER.
This is definitely not a good time for tourists but on a good day, you would have really enjoyed the vast underground train network Paris has. The whole idea is to make our visit worthwhile by making ourselves happy. Batobus the Seine River Cruise operator cancelled the cruise on the claim that Seine River water level has risen. We then decided to do the Tour Eiffel today using RER to Gare Du Nord then Subway to Saint Michel Notre Dame, and thereafter taking Bus 82 from Luxembourg to Eiffel tower. It was almost smooth when going and the return leg was worse. Hopefully, if time permits and God's grace we would return in 2020 or 2021. I'll just try to enjoy the final days here in Paris |

sikadicius: Sorry to break this to you. But this is an iptv service sold online. The Smarttv app is from available on samsung shop. It's a paid app but allows you to watch for a week or so, not sure of the days but you will have to pay to continue its use costing around $6. You then have to buy an iptv account which will be given to you as a playlist, usually ending as m3u .... you put the file name or playlist into the smarttvapp and it validates the link and you can watch your iptv account on it. What you need is good internet speed. The one my host is using cost €50 per annum for all channels. There's no Paytv receivable in Nigeria as of today that can match the content in terms of number of channels or premium contents. Turkish league, Tunisian league, Moroccan league, EPL, UCL, all UFC, Tennis, Golf etc are all live. If your kids wants entertainment, over 500 kiddies programmes are available. Hotbird and 9e can only try, but can't match this app. As you said, network is a challenge. We are using LTE+ here in France, close to 5g |
Satellite TV Technology › Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by davodyguy: 6:10pm On Dec 29, 2019 |
IYGEAL: Nigeria's problem can be summarized with four key areas - slow/fluctuating internet, disheartening power supply, near-total insecurity and corruption.
Unfortunately, if you bring that TV over here, it would be almost useless because ISPs here can't supply the kind of data speed a true 4K channel requires to run. In fact, if they could do that, of course some of us who can afford data would do away with anything dish and fully embrace IPTV.
I ordered for Netgear's Nighthawk M2 mobile Wi-Fi capable of downloading files at 2GBs/s, but who has witnessed a download speed of up to 50MBs/s in this country? I just ordered it with 'future' in my mind, plus it's unlocked and can accept any SIM with appropriate bands, so I can use it if I eventually leave these shores.
This is the state of our country. A sad one. I'm not sure any of our Network can support it as of now. Our own '4g LTE' is comparable to 3.75g of other nations. It's going to be terrible in Nigeria |

baggiosne: notin wey God no fit do,,naa our papa land, we just need to be prayerful My brother, I agree it's our land. I can't leave Nigeria now cause I have a business and staff are under my employment with monthly salaries. However for those who are not in that position and seeking good life for themselves and kids, it's best you migrate. I'm sure Danfo Driver's must have showed u pepper before. I'm sure you must have gone to the hospital with Doctors giving you excuses or you hear Doctors on strike. I'm Police may have said 'wetin you carry before' I'm sure roads leading to your house must be bad. I'm sure you have a generator or inverter because of epileptic power supply. I'm sure your GSM network provider may have ripped you off before or bad network These are things that are not available in developed countries. I do shed tears when I see people suffer and pray daily for people to enjoy good life in Nigeria. I cry when driving from my house to the Island via 3rd Mainland Bridge with kids Hawking sachet water. Even on this thread, I see how people crave for premium TV channels and are relying on FTA just because they may not be able to afford ₦14,000 per month Paytv. Here's the difference. With €15 per month, you get super fast internet unlimited and you'll be earning about €3000 a month as Salary. Do the conversation at ₦407 exchange rate In Nigeria, Ntel sells unlimited for ₦17,000 and you'll still have poor coverage. Someone earning ₦50,000 a month, from which he would take transportation, buy fuel in generator, Pay IKEDC or EKEDC, pay security levy and pay taxes, how would he get good quality life? That's why I'm upset with the system in Nigeria |

omoalison: Hi, So sorry I'm just responding. I was admitted in the hospital before Christmas and gave birth before the expected date. I'm still in here. I hope your holiday is going on not so bad... Had to check Livry Gargan online; Never heard of it... It's quite some transport distance from Paris and I can imagine what you must have gone through so far. I do wish you as much fun as possible though. Eeya Hope you're doing well now. We are trying to survive but it's unfortunate the timing of our trip. Transportation here is chaotic and I don't want to be spending on Taxis. The exchange rate is Crazy. ₦407 to €1 It's cheaper on RATP and RER. For us to get to Paris daily, we must get to Gare Aulnay Sous Bois and then Gare Du Nord. Then the weather is not too cool for us resident in Nigeria and used to 30°. Now we are doing 8° |

I've search for Smart Tv app what I'm seeing is that it is a combination of different streaming app for Samsung Tv Just as I said, the TV is Samsung, but details written in French language Model is UE58MU6125K TYPE: UE58MU6125 If I find this TV in Nigeria when I return, I'll surely buy and forget about satellite dish |

This is full HD live Streaming with Orange France. No single buffering. 101% stable. This is not what any of our ISPs can offer. Non of them can offer this kind of speed and stability
After watching Norwich City vs Tottenham, now it's Burnley vs Man United. Second half now courtesy RMC Sport 1 live streaming.
ISP is Orange, France. I snapped an image of the internet Box. It's unlimited download.
Maybe when God decides to intervene in Nigeria, our country will become better

spartacus11: This is wat i need. Naija wen I'm yet to see a single dish in the entire Livry-Gangan here in Paris. I guess with very strong internet, many people opted for IPTV. I was in Istanbul, Turkey between December 21 to 24th before coming to Paris. Didn't sight a single dish as well. Back in Nigeria, I bought a 4 metre dish in November dish year for Hotbird 13 and 9e. Now I'm laughing at myself. Nigeria is not worthy of being called a country. I've attached some details about the TV. If you can search for it. This is France and most equipment features are written in French language. But with these features (especially 4K) it can't be less than ₦500,000 to a little below ₦1,000,000

Beverlyhills: Your travel profile looks good that should speak well in their favour however, if your wife is employed she should include her work documentation as well as her bank statement irrespective of the sponsor and bank balance as at the day of printing. If she is a homemaker, do well to include a detailed letter of introduction for her and also her bank statement irrespective of the sponsorship. This goes to show she has a financial standing even as a homemaker.
Lastly , it's more of your responsibility as the sponsor to provide everything as required for the application. For tours its ideal you get cancellable /refundable tours. Check Expedia tours. Read the terms and conditions that apply. I think you're right. Since 24th, we are yet to do our Seine River Cruise. If not strike, it's something else. Today the Batobus cancelled the cruise, claiming the Seine River has risen. They said if we can't get on the boat, we can ask for our full refund.
