Wifey went to post office to get her BRP and they (postal worker) insisted I come with her (we should both come). Is this not a fabricated law? Is it like a new rule? because it's not on UKVI website o.

Hi guys,

Can anyone recommend a hotel / guest house that is affordable and close to Lagos airport please. I need to travel down there for an early morning flight.
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by headofschool:
What are the documents required of my dependants at POE. In our application, we stated we will be going together but that didn't happen as our visa was not decided the same time. The bank statement I submitted also covered her expenses.
Asides my CAS document and passport, what are the other documents she needs to take along?

Do I need to get a letter from my landlord for her? and what other things??

Thank you guys ooo

Please is Royal Air Maroc a good airline?
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by headofschool: 5:29pm On Oct 01, 2023
Cotonou airport typically had one hour of internet access per day. So if you need more, say for example you need to contact people because something came up then you will have to buy and register a new SIM card and subscribe to a data plan, you will also need to find where to get their currency. (Mine was even worse cuz I didn't carry a physical ATM card, was doing online transaction all the way🤣 woke gen.)

The underlying truth is, if you still intend to travel via Cotonou and Turkish airline, make sure it's just one stopover in Istanbul only and call customer service before booking o. 🤞

Hi @Headofschool,

Pls I'll appreciate if you can share your experience here with Turkish Airline via Cotonou route for us all to know, because so many people here that haven't book flight will learn and apply caution.


Regards.

Guys, 10:35hrs stop over in Saudi....does it require transit visa please . We called wakanow but they said it doesn't. We just want to be sure before wifey gets on board



I don't wish for my enemy to have the cotonou experience ☹️... meanwhile I have been refunded @turkish airline😉.

So after 4weeks plus, my wife gets collection email from TLS yesterday but till now, no BRP mail ...no other email in junk or spam as well. Do we need to follow up to receive BRP mail?

I can tell you for a fact, this is total bluff....getting local productions up in Nigeria is a long journey and relying on their non-existent or substantial service is another error too.

Carried my oil unfrozen and nothing happened...just hope you don't fall into the greedy hands of immigration officer at our 9ja airport else be prepared to dash something

Check the country you're flying to

Thank you dduchess

Hello

Tracker and collection mail is from TLS, if it isn’t far from you , you might have a go at just checking

Otherwise since you escalated it, be patient

Dependants can arrive anytime


Cheers

We were told because we had 2 stops in Turkey (Istanbul and Antalya). Flight is from Cotonou to Turkey to London...no EU involved
dduchess90:
Hello

What airport were you supposed to transit through at Turkey?

Anyway, refunds are usually when it is the airlines fault I.e cancellations due to technical issues. When it comes to getting the appropriate transit visa that’s on you

Welcome and all the best at your study

Cheers

Thank you nairaland, thank you duchess90...after all the stress we passed through...finally got to my school yesterday night.

For everyone still looking out, trust God, keep believing and be prayerful.


Guys: So I booked a flight from a third party from cotonou to UK to have stop over at Turkey. We were denied boarding saying we need transit visa. Anyway, please how can I go about getting refund? Turkish airline said there is refund but later said no refund because we booked from mytrip.com . The flight is non refundable, but does that really mean all that money has gone? Please help if you have ideas for me

Were you able to get the room
nwokechisom:
Hello house,

Please I need clarification on something that's been bothering me.

Apartments I've seen on Spareroom & Amber mostly have shared kitchen & living room.

Can't someone get an apartment that s/he doesn't have to share the kitchen/living room space with other occupants?
At all, at all like our self contain/one bedroom flat type in Nigeria.

Thanks for your anticipated responses.
