Crime › Re: Divorce-Seeking Wife Beats Husband To Pulp In Lagos (photo) by Griffon: 9:22am On Jun 02, 2022
MadamVanessa:
shocked



Sometimes I do pity men folks seriously. Now that the wife dealt with him, people will tagged him a weakling , If he beats the woman back, same people that calls him weakling will crucify him for dealing with a weaker vessel.

The most funny part of it is, nobody will actually say anything about the woman brutality on the man. It's normal for a woman to beat a man, but the gate of hell will be open if a man should lay his hands on a woman.

I kick strongly against a man laying his hands on a woman, same way I kick against a woman laying her hands on a man.

Travel › Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Griffon:
Mimzyy:
Since we are discussing scams, I’ll like to chip this in…
Let’s be careful when purchasing air tickets as well because there are some websites that are now designed mainly for fraudulent activities. My mum intends travelling to naija later this year and I started searching for an affordable ticket online, I stumbled upon cheapflights.co.uk and found a deal on Lufthansa for £400 plus. I was redirected to this website https://www.helloflights.co.uk/ where I was asked to fill in the passenger’s information, I did that promptly and few hours later I was contacted by one of the representatives of the company.

I provided all the required information and even sent my mum’s passport data page for verification of the names. After all said and done, I was sent an email requesting a deposit of about £100 which I did promptly then I replied the email stating that I’ve made the payment and asked for the ticket to be issued, the guy told me the ticket will be issued when full payment is made and I told him I was ready to pay in full as I didn’t initially request for part payment plan. He then told me that I had until June to make the payment and the ticket price is locked and guaranteed so I should not worry. I felt something off but I didn’t go with my gut feeling that day so I agreed but I asked him to send me the airline reference so I can double check on Lufthansa website myself. This took another 24 hours before I could get it and I checked, the reservation was there but there was no ticket number so I knew it was just a booking and not a confirmed ticket.

I called the agent back severally and no one picked. I then decided to send an email requesting ticket issuance. There was no response to that email. I called all through the next day and it was same. The next day, I decided to check their reviews again, I had previously done this but I just checked the first page of the reviews on trustpilot but this time, I filtered the reviews to show me the one star reviews and my findings shocked me to the bone marrow. Lots of people were in the same situation as I was…

To cut the story short, I called them back with another number and this time, they picked. I calmly told them my findings and said I wanted a refund. This is how the scam works, when they have you pay the deposit, they send an email containing the flight reservation and somewhere in that email written in the tiniest of fonts is a caveat stating that your quoted fare is only valid for about 3 days from the date you paid the deposit but this will be contrary to what you will be told over the phone. They’ll infact ensure that you’re convinced to pay closer to your travel date. Then when that time comes, you’ll be told that that fare is not valid again and you’ll then be made to pay through your nose even higher than what the airline is selling directly at that moment.

Anyway, I raved, ranted, cursed over the phone and the guy asked me to send an email requesting a refund. I told him I was recording all of our conversations and I actually was from that point onwards. Well it will suffice to say that that email was not responded to and I haven’t had the energy to show them craze since then. I had my mum open her Monzo app and report the transaction as fraudulent with evidence showing I requested ticket issuance even before the allotted date in their email. Monzo stated that they had contacted them and it will take up until 22 July before they hear back from them merchant. Anyway we’ve counted our loss and moved on.

I eventually purchased directly from British airways website to avoid any more stories that touch because I was really shaken by that experience despite my supposed “wokeness level”. They are also a registered company because I checked on gov.Uk so the level at which they operate is different from the norm. So let’s be careful out there and be very mindful cos the level of scam is just on another level entirely.
Well, you were lucky not to have met the worse darl.

By providing your mom’s passport for verification purposes, those guys could have cashed out easily with it.

Unlimited22, actually Okowa is the perfect VP choice as he brings in Niger Delta and Igbo to the table, and Delta return big numbers. If they can create a good bridge with Wike and Udom, they can lock a lot of votes in AkwaIbom and Rivers too. Those are your 3 big Southern States

I don't see how Tinubu can pick an Igbo running mate, that's a losing ticket against Atiku and Okowa

APC need to think hard. Jonathan seems their only viable way out

Liverpool's midfield has been sent parking by old men cheesy
Cmon mate, that game wasn’t lost in the midfield. Madrid lost grip of possession through the night. They were making their attacking moves through the use of long balls, no other way they could have penetrated that brick.

Courtois made over six saves, that’s your evidence to how shambolic that midfield cover was bro.

Carvajal is gonna have a long night.

He’s up against a cocaine sniffing, weed smoking Colombian who if not for his footballing talent would have ended up leading a drug cartel in the trenches of La Guajira.

I was even about Casemiero more. He works more than the others. If Thiago is contained by Madrid's midfield, Liverpool's middle passes will reduce.
Dawg see what I was saying. When it comes to proper midfield play, you can’t compare Thiago, Hendo and Fabinho with any pack at the moment.

Those guys are devilish with their pressing game and possessional play. They’ll chase you out of the middle of the pack.

Mane is the reason Klopp and Liverpool is excelling.

He’s good.

He’s no mate with Salah.

I won’t stop saying it,
Salah that has two to three players to deal with whenever on the ball.

The opposition knows who the bigger threat is, stop capping.

How many shots on target so far?

It’s just Casemiro my people. That back line has always been exposed, no way the Brazilian will be everywhere.

I want liverpool to win but you can't underrate the experience of madrid midfield at this level.The trio of kross,Modric and casemiro are all hitmen.
Energy no dey for those legs again bar Casemiro. Thiago will run down Kroos and you can always expect Hendo to take care of Modric.

Only a matter of time though.

“It has been nearly three months since I announced my intention to sell Chelsea FC. During this time, the team have worked hard to find the right custodian for Chelsea FC that would be best positioned to successfully lead the Club into its next chapter.

‘The ownership of this Club comes with great responsibility. Since I came to Chelsea nearly twenty years ago, I have witnessed first-hand what this Club can achieve.

‘My goal has been to ensure that the next owner has a mindset that will enable success for the Men’s and Women’s team, as well as the will and drive to continue developing other key aspects of the Club, such as the Academy and the vital work of Chelsea Foundation.

‘I am pleased this search has now come to a successful conclusion. As I hand over Chelsea to its new custodians, I would like to wish them the best of success, both on and off the pitch.

‘It has been an honour of a lifetime to be a part of this Club – I would like to thank all the Club’s past and current players, staff, and of course fans for these incredible years.

‘I am proud that as a result of our joint successes, millions of people will now benefit from the new charitable foundation which is being established. This is the legacy which we have created together. Thank you.’

Real Madrid can win this match because of their midfield. The trio of Casemiero, Kross and Modric got better understanding and they have to do more by reducing Liverpool's long balls.
Hendo, Thiago and Fabinho can handle those three. These ones are just workaholics, Real only have Casemiro as the only hit man for that midfield.
