I dont think its illegal. 6 May is almost here?

The important thing is that they can't conduct viewings of the property without your consent, so they might ask you if will agree for them to bring potential tenants to view the place at times you find convenient. You can say no if you like. But if you and the landlord have got along well, then if they ask, see if you can make concessions to them, for the sake of goodwill, even if you don't need a reference from them.

Where exactly are you going to in Czechia? EasyJet and Ryan Air have direct flights from Manchester to Prague.

You are better off if you have a deposit starting the process and learning along the way. I got told I couldn’t get one before staying for two years and I did it in a year. I got rejected from a couple lenders but eventually one came through. A sound broker is the most important element as they will help you navigate things.

Jamesclooney:


Most lenders will ask for 25% deposit to offset the risk.

Estroller:


No it is not, but bear in mind that some lenders will require you meet certain residency conditions before you can access competitive deals.

Where is @Justwise?

Please come back to us.

Please do anyone know how I can get a good insurance deal for my car. Renewing the insurance seems too high.
It's was better when. I registered with my Nigerian licence last year, about £130 and now since have gotten my full UK license and about to renew, my own insurance are giving me a quite of about £300 and trying to look around, what am getting is too high, like £230 thereabout.
Any advice on how to go about getting a better insurance deal. Thanks

I do not have experience with car but I will ask; Have you done an HPI Check?
You could use totalcarcheck (dot) co (dot) uk used to be about £8.99 or £14.99 for their premium package, 3 checks I believe.

Here is a checklist someone posted some time ago on this forum

Buying a car

Thank you so much for this robust response. I will follow through

- Ensure during your test drive, upon set off, the automatic gearbox is not jerky
- Check the spare tyre well, is dry.
- Check the rear mats area is dry
- Ensure no bangs and knocks from suspension is observed
- Check MOT history from government website
- Conduct an HPI vehicle check
- Check that AC is blowing cold......

Abeg. Does anyone have experience about this car. It is 2016 model and am considering it.

the first company has to cancel their COS.

ReesheesuKnack:


Formally reject the existing England Job offer. Follow up with the company to cancel the CoS.
Once you receive confirmation that the CoS has been cancelled, then pursue your Scotland dreams.
Good luck!

I have a question here please.

A recently graduated student in youkay got a care COS in England but has not used it to apply for visa. He also got another health care job in Scotland but the coy in scotland is not able to generate a new COS for him because they said it is showing on the system that he has a COS. This person preferred Scotland to England. Please advise on what he needs to do.

Note. I have not seen a case like this before, what I always know is someone switching from an existing COS to an undefined COS

Hi everyone,
I just registered with Mashmallow Insurance with my UK provisional driver's license.

I indicated that I had driven for 13 years while back in Nigeria and made no claims before coming to the UK.

Now the vehicle insurance is requesting a "proof of your no-claims discount." How do I go about this?

Your kind advice is needed.

Thanks

Goodenoch:


Lol. Two things:

1. I wasn't impolite. I responded and gave actionable advice. I even suggested keywords instead of just saying 'go to Google'.
2. If they follow my advice, they'd get where they need to be in two clicks. Yours would take three, and involve more time and uncertainty.

Your being sanctimonious to me might feel good, but it's actually not helpful if you don't prompt people to learn how to sort basic things out. Think: Will they come on Nairaland every time they want to apply for something in the UK? In asking people for such things, won't they be at risk of being given false information when they could simply do basic research and find the info they need?
