mubby08: @holyboy what's up? Any news on yours yet?

Congratulations... Have a safe flight..

abbakacici: Just collect my passport leaving on Saturday thanks everyone

:DI tested the hypothesis ooo.. I did comparison, wen i made my first application it was processed application.. Nuffin like passport and nuffin like Visa Operation center. It was refused 4 days before i got d text to collect processed application. But today i saw processed passport. In transit to Visa operation center. If it was nt issues i dnt fink dey have any biz wit visa center. So base on dis i think terms used by dis pple matter. South wales loading. Bt wit faith..lol... Its all well... New week of good news...

JideVince:
there is an observation by a member of this forum that "processed application" results in refusal while "processed passport" results in visa being granted. nobody can confirm the veracity of this, though. however, while reading through old posts on this thread, i discovered someone got the visa even when the message read "processed application", i guess that settles it.

Just tracked my application, say processed passport. In transit to UK Visa Operation center. I think dis interpretes Victory and successs oooooo. @ Last..... Delay is neva denial 4 dos who believe in the Most High Jesus.

I was refused Visa visa and d University did not want to issue me another CAS, they wanted me to go thru him. Cos its stated in thier skool website.

abnot:

Why use representatives? The tier 4 policy guidance is available online free of charge. If you applied on the 9th, you should be confident bout getting your application back on thursday

So that means we wld get news b4 friday. Dis now back 2 d normal 15 days waiting time. My dad called sum1 dis evening in abuja and he said i shld go to Lagos and collect my stuff. I am confident our stories will be testimonies of victory and success. Secondly, dis representatives of University of South wales has refused to forward my CAS to me. He only printed it for me. Saying i owe them 60k. Like i no sabi fill form. Dont University pay dis guys 2 represent dem. Nawa.
That

abnot:

I was at VFS in abuja this evening when the UPS bus came. It was loaded with three bags one was tagged abuja, the other was tagged ikeja and the last lekki. Was told the othe two bags will be taken to lagos tomorrow and will be ready for delivery on thursday. So most likely, your status will change on thursday

I recieved fone call 2 collect package 2mrw, and i paid for courier, have been checking my status and it hasnt changed. I dont knw wat 2 do nw. Am just praying ooo. Applied on d 9th september. Is der any1 who applied dis date who was called 2day. And whose going to southwales..

I jst got a call from abuja. UK embassy, said i should come to the embassy tomorrow in lagos to collect my Visa. I asked her if it was stamped she said Yes. I actually cried to God and told my uncle who is with Foreign affairs. She collected my details yesterday. I want you guys to pray for me. Shld i still wait because my status is still the same. And i padi 4 courier.

When did you apply my friend. 4 me i applied on d 9th September in Ikeja.

abbakacici: Finally my passport is in transit, who is planing traveling on Friday,Saturday, or Sunday on klm,emirate or any other flight that will not cost more then 250 k return ticket , because I hate travelling alone especially the ones with long transit, my luggage will less then 30kg and I have no hand luggage so I will not mind helping him out ,

Brilliant piece u wrote down. Thanks for your words of hope. God will indeed help us. God must eleviate u my brodas.

Don Oms:
In my opinion, no one can categorically answer that question except God. Here's the reason: having applied on the 09th, there's a 90% chance u should get ur visa before 27th (from recent trends) if your application doesn't suffer any verification delays. So let's assume the ECO was to stamp it tomorrow, 24th, you'll most likely be given visa as they believe you'll make it to the UK before 30th. Let us assume you had verification delays and a decision was to be made on Friday, 27th, they MAY want to deny you since it's 95% unlikely you get the package before 30th ('cos of weekend). God forbid they're to make a decision after the 30th, it's automatic refusal.
Having said all, if you believe in God, then pray a miracle happens this week. Above all, don't worry about it & be cheerful. All the best!
PS: I'm hopeful your package should be ready by tomorrow though. Keep tracking it at intervals.

I applied same 09 Sept too. But my latest resumption date is 7th October. Fingers crossed. I believe they will check d CAS and find d dates. Registration began today in My skool. South wales. Anybody going to South wales or already there. Please whats d cost for single room in Cardiff share 2 bed room flat or 4.

Thanks my brother. I appreciate. Have been searching 4 accomodation online bt d cant pay yet. And sum1 is already volunteering to help me. She is my mentor there. Just believing.

We all need prayers not just you alone Hboy
Using mobile won't really give you and enhanced browsing experience, that is true
And since you spoke about been low on cash,you might not dig cafe browsing
Seems you are all for school accommodation, good for you cos I'm not
But anyone serious about private accommodation would start his/her search from Nigeria

@ thread, I hope the graphics below are helpful
Got it from here http://www.nus.org.uk/PageFiles/11136/NUS-Housing-checklist-final.pdf

Also Justwise and those already in the system is an NUS extra card a benefit?
Please enlighten us
Thanks

Thanks for your concern. Am not applying 4 anytin yet. All i was trying to say is dat, my course begins on Monday, i have little time to prepare. I am currently trying to make contacts. Am really nt anxious. Am just praying and believing in God for goodnews. I was refused b4. I speak daily with my mentor in d university. She has been helpful to me in respect to accomodation and oda aspects. Thanks for you advice my brother. D feeling of been refused a visa is wats disturbing me nw. Am like scared bt hanging on with faith. No blame me. I have everytin in place already. I do not have access to a laptop or Internet. All am using is my Blackberry curve 2. Am struggling with my fone. Thanks. And pray 4 me.

ochukoccna:


Why not go with mayo's advice first holyboy?
Your posts show anxiety and ill preparedness
Why not research likely hotels you could lodge, friends you could bunk with temporarily, airline[s] you could likely follow and even available accommodation you could rent when your boots are on ground?
At least you have access to the Internet which can aid all this?
Or do you want to see your visa first and get to Wales before planning how to go about all this things?
You seem to have faith but top it up with common-sense and a plan
My two cents

Am believing God that i get my Visa next week. I will book any available flight straight to Cardiff my brother. I did not even buy any Africa food stuff. I dont even have accomodation yet. Might stay wit a friend or stay in Hotel. Till i settle mysef. My dear in d name of Jesus b4 friday i should be in Cardiff. University of Southwales.
Applied in Lagos, because i had no where to stay in abuja and was financially down. Dis my second application. I am trusting in God for goodnews. First one took 11 days. I knw dis will take same time.

mubby08:

I have spent virtually all my savings in making this application pending till my parents return. Oga Justwise thank you very much for your support all through. and May God continue to bless u guys..

Just waiting and believing it will be goodnews at the end...
