I don't have access to the mail. My best advice is to join this telegram group, Fiverr Inner Circle and Entrepreneur Hub. Or you can reach out to Eben Chidike on Twitter. I think he has a private Telegram group. Just like any person making it on freelance websites, you need a mentor. You can also search for victor on Nairaland. When I started I paid him to teach me the ropes.

Thank you, your helpful response wasn't late. And I've not yet received the parcel after more than 2 months now. I reached out to someone in IMPC Ikeja and he told me parcels are still coming in from the UK, so it isn't the coronavirus lockdown delaying it.

My worry is actually about the files on an item coming with the parcel. It would be a huge lost. I still hope it somehow arrives.

We would make enquiries with Parcel Force as you advised.

Thanks.

Hi,

I know this might be a late response.
Speaking from a personal experience, the first time I sent a parcel to Nigeria from UK via Royal Mail ( Post Office), my parcel ended up in South Africa then Namibia (reason given was because the tag had come off during transportation) before it finally landed in Nigeria (approximately 2.5 months).
Although the parcel was sent through Royal Mail, I found out that it was actually Parcel Force that was responsible for the delivery to Nigeria.
If you haven't received the parcel yet, ask the sender to try and contact Parcel Force and give them a description of the parcel.
Hope you get it if you haven't already.

Sorry I'm bringing this here, I just feel there must people here with lots of experience about parcels sent to Nigeria from the UK.

An item was sent to me from the UK since 30th of May through Royalmail but it hasn't arrived. The last update about the item was on June 2nd and it reads "Your item has left the UK and on its way to destination country". The service used won't provide further details once parcel leaves the UK.

Local post office here say they can't track the parcel on their system. Please has anyone here used Royalmail with this period? I want to know whether the item is lost or they've just done me strong thing here by stealing it. I'm worried...

Thanks.

You didn't add many of those "industrous and enthusiastic" people whose main industry
is to make fake bra,pant, drinks, pharmaceuticals(killers!),electronics,batteries, tyres,spare parts, etc just so they appear "hard working" and self-employed?
Ariza:
Lol Yoruba Men aren't lazy, they are just no industrious and most lack enthusiasm to start from scratch unlike their Women. Yoruba Men not all but most prefer white collar jobs that getting their hands soiled and their great educational achievement is their undoing. Unlike An igbo man who will start from selling bras and pants at alaba market,to producing lingeries,A typical Yoruba Man will rather wait for the igbo man's company to kick off then come to apply as a manager in the company. Lol, although I must say they are intelligent and can make business grow but will hardly start it . They don't like their hands getting dirty. Lol Although not all but most.

Little wonder Op's husband used his savings of 900k to search for jobs and connections in Abuja. Lol who does that? If that savings was the wife's believe me that family's financial status would be booming by now. Because Unlike Yoruba Men,There women are hustlers and very industrious.Like they can do anything even jobs their husbands will reject. Although not all but Most. Hardly will you see a Yoruba woman without a job or something doing even if her husband is rich.In Yoruba society,a Jobless wife is a menace, she will be labeled all sort of names and blamed for anything that goes wrong around because Yoruba believe that a Jobless wife is automatically a rumour monger grin . No doubt Their women are richer but they hardly show it. But why won't they? We all know that there's salary job can never make one wealthy! Never!

Anyways back to the point, Op's husband is a typical Yoruba Man who would rather wait and dream to hit it big than starting from scratch, and his Yoruba pride will not let him move to a smaller apartment because he wants to keep his fake status quo. Op is really in for a long thing, expect she pushes responsibility back to him and wake him from his slumber.

I have an idea what the husband is going through.This is because I've been in a similar situation only that I'm not married yet, even now becoming very sceptical about that thing called marriage considering some of the comments here and things I've been noticing the past few years. Once you lose your job, you lose so many things along with it. You have no say on your own life anymore. All of your actions get extremely scrutinized and viewed through the lens of being "jobless and lazy". I'm getting to understand why some men behave in certain ways. This life sef

Tier 1 exceptional talent visa is a feasible option and quite cheap as well. Your friend could write you a very good reference letter and you can then submit your credentials with the referenced to The Royal society.
Travel / Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by dgee1(m): 10:18pm On Jul 03, 2020
The friend is actually a guy, I'm a guy too, so no marriage......No Homo lol. Will work on the points you highlighted.Thanks for your detailed advise. Well appreciated.
mimilyrics:
3 options are open to you;
Tier 1 (can be capital intensive depending on the category but you must have a viable business proposal or possess exceptionally high talent), Tier 2 (if you can get an employer to sponsor your work Visa - you can apply for certain jobs from Nigeria; this won't come on a platter of Gold) and, Tier 4 (which can get you a 2 year PSW - if it kicks off as scheduled and eventually a Tier 2 job sponsorship which can get you ILR in 5 years if you are lucky.
The only option where your "friend" can have a direct impact is through the spousal visa (a lengthy and sometimes, emotionally draining process) which has its own conditions and a level of physical interaction (you must have met physically) as one of the proofs of being genuine. I don't advice this even if you eventually find yourself in the UK, don't jump in without knowing exactly who your "friend" is; looks and perceptions could be deceiving.
If you go for the Tier 4, you can use a stone to kill 2 birds - improve your professional options through education while getting a chance at exploring the UK job market. You'd need to meet the financial requirements (tuition + maintenance) in addition to passing the genuine student test.

PS: Don't just assume that your friend is willing to help, ask if he is and to what level he's willing to help. You need to know in order to plan.
Also ask yourself this questions;
1. What would happen if your friend's willingness changes? If he changes his mind, what would you do?
2. Would you still be able to go ahead with the process of whatever route you choose?
3. What exactly do you want?
4. Where exactly do you see yourself in a few years from now irrespective of the economic or global situations?

Hello house, please I need your advise. A friend I know in Ipswich asked me to find out route through which I could move to the UK. He's oyinbo who I met many years ago during the days of Yahoo Messenger, so he doesn't know how we could go about it from here. I have done some research on the Tier4 UK student visa, and though I know he's ready to help me financially in some ways, I feel he wont be able to help pay tuition as high as £11k especially knowing he's just trying to help out. So, please I need your advise on the other options I could explore. He also talked about providing a reference and I wouldn't know how that could help the whole processing. I have a degree in chemistry and don't want his willingness to help in some ways go to waste. Would really be happy to receive guidance on steps I could take.

Thanks so much.

About 15k yearly. There are courses cheaper and more expensive than that though (i.e. HR can be as high as £18k, MBA between £20k and £30k plus; Suffolk, Chester, Bedfordshire and some others have courses in the £9-10k range). Check for the schools with the courses you want and what their tuition is like.

mimilyrics:
The person will have to pay your full fees directly to your preferred school (or transfer your tuition balance after deposit payment to your account) and transfer your maintenance funds to your account where it has to be for at least 28 days prior to your online visa application and in some cases, CAS issuance. You can't use the person's bank statements because the person doesn't qualify as a sponsor.
Other options include: govt funded scholarships, scholarships from international companies/organisations, parental sponsorship, self sponsorship and loans.
