No more privacy


So anyone would walk into my University and start pulling out my file and accessing my transcript

My Ex Girlfriend, My enemies, Blackmailers, Kidnappers, Police would just enter your School Exams and Records Department and without your permission start digging your Exams records, files,


.

Don't your employers do it? Except you never worked for a standard company. Apart from rhat once a court gives an order there is nothing you can do about it.

He can be granted a residency waiver, they will just ask for some additional information and documents like police character certificate from his country of origin and character reference

Good evening @justwise, @mex551, lexusgs430 and other elders, a flatmate of mine recently got a provisional offer with the civil service that requires security clearance. However in the job advert it was stated that

"For meaningful checks to be carried out, individuals need to have lived in the UK for a sufficient period of time to enable appropriate checks to be carried out and produce a result which provides the required level of assurance. You should normally have been resident in the United Kingdom for the last 3 years if the role requires CTC clearance, 5 years for SC clearance and 10 years for DV. A lack of UK residency in itself is not necessarily a bar to a security clearance and applicants should contact the Vacancy Holder/Recruiting Manager listed in the advert for further advice."

My flatmate was happy about the provisional offer at first but got later got sad as he is unsure of passing the security clearance. Please who else has gone through this type of situation and passed it?

Nigeria military Vs Niger Mali and Burkina Faso

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MakxyFeM4yk

Forget this video. Boko haram and Nigerian army, which org. has more members? But has Nigerian army been able to win the war?

Wainey:
Niger does not have what it takes to stand ECOWAS.
Also I don't want this war on Niger, they are trying to find a govt that will suit them, but I seriously don't want them to think a military dictator is better than a democratic govt.

I think they have to look for a voice in Democracy than settling for military rule

You cant remove a govt that the people of the country supports and all these is because of the pipeline passing through Niger.

Return the uniform back, by a signed for royal mail service......... Hope the uniform was not made from gold, silver, sapphire and swarovski crystals............ 😁😂

Exactly what I intended to do. Thanks so so much. Uniform made from gold.... 😅

Lexusgs430:



Have they asked for the uniform, to be returned.........

What's the shortfall in payment..........

Just dey follow who know road and always allow the poor, breath properly......... 😂🤣

Yes. They have asked for the uniform, they asked if I know the address to send it to, I told them I didnt want to assume that they should send the address to me in a mail. Although I made the move for the uniform to be returned because I cant use the uniform for anything and I just wanted us to resolve the matter peacefully. Moreso, the uniform can still be used only worn the uniform once on top of my clothing and had to take off before the end of the shift when I found out it was mental health.

The shortfall would be the price of the uniform now if they pass it through the normal way now but wouldnt want to give details this may completely unmask me.
But can I return the uniform to them?

Good evening elders, goodevening @lexusgs430
Please I need advise. I I recently just got my new brp for the PSW visa. Before now, I was working with my student Visa and it happened that during that time I applied to care and support agency, and they responded that they do not accept students. I explained that I was already done with my school and they asked me to give them an evidence, I collected a letter from student support stating I was no more restricted by the 20hrs.

Only for me to start work and then a certain week, I did 40hrs for the agency and they paid me for only 20hrs. I called and they said it is because of the restriction on the hours. I explained I already submitted a letter from the school an they apologised that they will pay.

Two weeks later I received an amount from transferwise smaller than the amount owed normally they pay comes from "wepay(the company handling their payroll). My mind told me they were the one, when I called they said they were the one. I asked the reason paying me this amount through a private account of an employee and he said I was paid off NI. I told me my money was not complete and he said that is the amount cos it is off NI. I explained to him that I already submitted evidence removing the 20hrs restriction. He said they also removed uniform money. I asked him to send me a payslip showing the deduction that I dont mind but send me a payslip. I reported the matter to the manager but apparently they all together and people i have spoken to said that agency is known for doing that. That they keep passing you around till you get tired.

Please what is the right way of demanding for my payslip? I have never worked more than 20hrs in any week during school term. I just want an evidence for monies deducted. Please how do I go about this/

@lexusgs430, @newbie and other elders.

Please recall this story when @lexusgs430 told me to stop requesting for the payslip verbally and @newbie told me to write and threaten them with ACAS.

Update on the story. I wrote and gave them a time frame without using threat and the elapsed nothing happened. I called ACAS and they told me to write again and tell them if they dont comply, that the matter will be taken to the employee tribunal. I wrote and followed it up with a call and it started receiving attention. Then they came again and said the money was for uniform. I told them nothing like that is stated in my contract nor in the employee handbook and that if any deduction outside the statutory is to be made, that it has to be signed for.

I told them I could return the uniform to them but that my complete money has to be paid. On the issue of the salary paid off NI, an account number has been sent tome to refund the money they paid me off NI. Then, they process the salary the normal way.

They intend to pay the money by Thursday next week, please am I on the right path if I send the uniform back to them tomorrow? I dont want to work for them again.


Thanks for your assistance so far.

For someone who does not require sponsorship(he is already in the uk) and has up 8 years of experience in Nigeria, what are his chances of securing an Accounting or Audit role as an ICAEW member?

Are employers so particular about UK work experience ?

To be honest I dont know but you stand a better chance with ICAEW. When it comes to employment there are several parts. Having qualifications, skills, and intelligence is one part. God factor or luck as some people call it is another.

harddrive2012:
Hello bro, I’m also considering getting chartered. Though I Started ICAN in Nigeria and still in Skills with 2 papers left.
May I ask if you started your ACCA in UK?
I have checked the fee online and it looks much 😂.
Would you advise I continue my ICAN in UK and probably convert to ACCA later using my ICAN. Or make I just close eyes start ACCA here from the foundation level for those with Bsc. Accounting.

Thanks

continue with ICAN and convert to ICAEW without exams but u need about 5year post qualification experience.
But instead of waiting for 5years, immediately you are done with ICAN convert to CIMA. You will be required to write a case study and that will be all. I dont think they do that post qualification thing for CIMA.

With big 4s and top consulting firms? You gotta be joking

No jokes. I have someone in my brother's class in the UK was asked to withdraw. I wouldnt want to give so much details but this person worked for one of the big fours.

It was concluded that it was one of those jobs they give people based on "PR" there is nothing new under the sun. El- Rufai's daughter who is partner in pwc find out very well. Most Kaduna jobs came in through her.

Even in the UK referral is a thing. You are more likely to get called for an interview with a referal.

Talking about the big investment banks. FBN Quest must be there. Go there and ask how they came in. Some of them are brilliant no doubt but their fathers are people in the society. When late Osazie became the MD majority of the staff without background lost their jobs and were all replaced with friends or acquintance from people like Otudeko. Others were replaced with friends from Ikoyi Club.

I can go on and on. But if I do that I will start calling names of people who are are making serious waves in the society. There are people who enter FBNQuest without anyone but they are few.

Newbie123:


Cool. In the meantime, call ACAS

ok thanks

Newbie123:


Do as I said then except you have other options.

I used it to drag £67 one time when I just came talk more of your own

Ok. I sent them a mail yesterday buy they are behaving like they did not see it. But I know they saw it because if it was before they would have called me for one shift to cover in a place or another. I gave them till Thursday next week.

Lexusgs430:




We dey await positive feedback..........

Amen in Jesus name.

Lexusgs430:


STOP verbally requesting........ Send a formal letter of request, chronologically highlighting all issues, and request a timeline of response..........

Simply watch and wait....... E go drop........ 🤣😂

Oga o . I will update u. I intend to send the mail by Tuesday. Let me see what they will use monday to do. Thanks boss.

Newbie123:


I don't know how far you're willing to take the matter especially if they are sponsoring you. Don't know if this would affect anything as clearly, this is not Nigeria but I believe politics and witch hunting still exists within some places.

You might want to send them an official mail stating everything that has occured. Tell them you will be forced to seek legal advice if the issue is not resolved and state a time frame.

If by the end of the time fram, nothing happens, contact ACAS (just Google them). Make sure this all happens within 3 months though.

My 2cents

they are not sponsoring me. Just the normal work people do.
