Hi fizzle, did you go with passport photograph?

Here in Abuja, i didnt. Don't know about Lagos

And lo and behold, i got up thinking of how the interview will look like and to be honest i was pretty tensed. Thinking of how i will twist my lips and unleash some queen's English. Omor no be small tension grab me like girl wey dey grab shawama. At about 9 am, i got a call from a lady at ukeas informing me that i will need to photocopy my documents and have a passport too but on a second though i contacted Mcstar and she told me she didnt do all that. Well i was like to be on the safe side let me just do photocopies.
Left the house around to 10 to make photocopies but got to some business centres and their machines were all bad...omor na that time i know say the devil wey dey watch me dey watch with better HD and na 3D him dey use sef . Past ten i still dey waka round dey find where to photocopy and around 10:45am i got a place and make the photocopies of which at the end of the day i didnt submit.
Got a cab to take me to the TLS Abuja and at that point i know the devil had remixed his plan for me that day. I was like e no go happen for you. This cab guy didnt even know where i was going...he was busy taking me round and round as if i came for a tour round Abuja. I kept on telling this young man that i have an interview by 11.30 and need to be there by 11.15. I kept losing patience cos it was beginning to piss me off. by 11:12 i was able to locate the building from afar and thats how we were able to locate the venue. Was supposed to give the guy 300naira but i didnt know when i jumped out of the cab and gave him 200naira and ran straight to the gate.. A couple of guys ran to me all in the name of making photocopies,what was in my mind at that moment was just crazy.
Straight to the interview.. well i checked in then got to the reception and checked in my application form and passport...got all my documents in a bag provided by the staff there. Saw some guys forming janded...some chics forming janded and forming over-Behind.. I was like who out of all these people is a nairalander. i was as mute as a mice. Had my biometrics then went to the waiting room for my interview.
When it got to my turn, i walked majestically like a guy who is walking down the aisle...no be small aisle... ..... I walked into the room and sat down, picked up the headset and started the interview with a white guy...probably via skype. I expected the normal though.
- My name and date of birth
- What course i did in my undergraduate
- Why the UK
- Why Coventry
- Did u send in an IELTS or TOEFL (Well i told him i sent in my WAEC)
- and of what relevance the course will be to me.
At the end we exchanged pleasantries, and na so i give the guy better thumbs up unto niggar na...lololzzzzz... and indeed he smiled.

Hopefully am expecting a positive decision Godwilling and surely my transcript will come up once again.

Thanks guys, justwise (my boss wey don dey beef me for months now...I still love u shaa)...olowoB...this dude idi toomuch...Mcstar...inshort na better hussy wey God go dash u soon..will catch u with u soon...MrsDaniels...Inshort na MrsFizzile u supoz dey answer sef.. u toomuch.. And to all those that chipped in one advice or the other, it shall surely end well. Am positive.

umarwy:
Just checked in at MM2. Waiting for my flight.
Didn't experience any difficulty just that I had to rearrange my bags.

The customs just asked how much I am traveling with ( incase I needed to declare). Where I was going to and for what.

My bag was searched also (I saw many students. As I see some food stuff I shock) I took food stuffs will list them later

For all those still awaiting decision. Fizzle mrsdan sassy

All the best

Wishing you Allah favour

Will keep you guys updated

Thanks bro. Hoping for the best.

And the first round of waiting has been concluded. Had my interview today by 11:30am appointment time. Will give a concrete transcript of how it went.

Hey MrsDaniels, your priority receipt is it that mail that was sent to you by TLS with some payment details? Wana be sure.

MrsDaniels:
Thanks darling for the wishes, wishing yo fizzile too tomoro on ur interview success.

Thanks MrsDaniels, wishing u d very best. Just give them what they want. Nothing will stop you. Please don't forget to give us your transcript from the point you got to the gate, so that we can be guided. Something concrete. Thanks. We must experience more successes.

sassyboochic:
many i cant state now. i had my forty points and also was given opportunity for AR

Why not share with us? Atleast it will help a few persons. Also this is a faceless group.

MrsDaniels:
Thanks dear, wish you the very best too in your interview. When is your own interview.

Mine is on tuesday. Thanks dear. God willing we will all testify

MrsDaniels:
Thats how they denied one guy at Churchgate VAC on friday when my cuz went to pick her own visa, pls this should serve as a warning to peeps who have gotten their applications sent to Sheffield, always have your phone on and with you too. They did interview for him, guess they werent clear about somethings, so they called this dude on saturday from sheffield he didnt pick for 13times, neither did he call back ooh, and him having 3rd class in first degree they wanted to ask him what he has been doing since he graduated in 2014 after Nysc completed in 2015, am so sure if the dude had picked up and answered their questions then he would have gotten his visa. Because its an MBa he was going for and he was to do premasters and masters together. Due to them not been able to speak with him he got an outright denial, so the VO commented saying its cos he got a third. Which literally is very unusual for them to refuse on such ground, they obviously couldnt say cos he didnt pick his calls for 13times for them to get more answers bfr they make a decision. It was a terrible thing cos the guy paid for priority, that made me know they do applications on weekends for priority pple and thats how the guy used stupidity to loose his visa. Because have seen diff peeps with a third class abroad and they do their program and come out with very very good grades. So pls for us going for interview make sure your confident and speak and be very explanatory enuf to the VO and try to mention every important info to the visa officer too so they wont have any cause to start chasing u with calls to clearify things for them. Especially those doing the priority and other normal visa applicant peeps. Pls guys! I felt so bad for the guy, cos dose visa officers dont wanna know if u spent 2million to pay for visa app and all they look for slight chances, so pls be very brave confident and above all pray and hand it over to God the one who is the Chief Visa officer and has authority ova every being.

Nice one MrsDaniels. I believe this will inspire a few persons going for interview soon even beyond.

A

MrsDanieldt s:
My appointment is tomorrow and so is my interview, i also paid for priority to fast track it.

Great. All the best to you. Go grab it.

MrsDaniels:
Okay thank you dear.... Wish me all the best o in my interview.

All the best MrsDaniels. When is your interview?

Plz who knows the procedure for refund of IHS fee of an application that wasn't completed?

And after the hassle, stress, anxiety, i was able to book for my interview. Hopefully, God willing it will come out positive. Will sure post my timeline and transcript.
All thanks to Mcstar, you saved a soul you know. Big ups.

Thatfiyahgirl:
Please help guys. I paid for ihs using StanbicIBTC.i tried to pay for the visa using Gtb but it declined saying it's more than my limit. I tf the money back to my StanbicIBTC to use it to pay for the visa. Declined again that I've passed my limit. Please what bank can I easily use to pay this 521 dollars visa fee?

I had same issue with GTB, and i had to visit their branch and they told me their monthly limit has been reviewed from $1000 to $500 and it took effect from yesterday. As for stanbc, their daily limit remains $500 while monthly limit remains $1200. I will advice you to wait till tomorrow and use Stanbic. Please don't think of trying severally with GTB else your application will be blocked completely. I beg you.
