Let say you make a purchase of £200.
If a credit card has an 25.3% for purchases.
Then you pay an interest of (25.3/100 * 200) / 12 every month. If you don't clear your balance.
In this case it's £3.92
Thanks! Just wanted to confirm

If the balance is paid then, I won't pay interest

I wonder how they make profit though cos if everyone pays in time, they're jonzing

This same sentiment has been echoed by Justwise and TheGuyFromHr previously and I have no reason to doubt it.

Looking at the approval rate of the Tier 4 visa which is high, it becomes suspect that the UK government is doing this all for the money.

As I've told people before - not to let the recent PSW visa fool them that the UK government is immigration friendly (BREXIT is a pointer to that).
Left to me, all students need to prepare for the possibility of that 10 year route first. Have a plan for that in place and then chase sponsorship.. That way, even if the job / sponsorship does not come, you have a pathway towards what you’re aiming for

Marrying a citizen is another option for those who want to go that route

There's also the option of starting PR for other countries while waiting

According to the owner they asked him for proof of address, then he sent his tenancy agreement, they still demanded another and he sent NI and utility bills, and they are still asking for another.

Have told him to ignore the job.
Employers in middlesbrough has alot of rules.

Thanks for your input.
Has to be the most useless place in the UK, the employers like to play God there because they know students are more than the available jobs smh

I am convinced my village people made me choose the school there

I am studying social work, for them to give CAS you must show police clearance from Nigeria, when you come you will show them again before you apply for DBS, I don’t know for other school but for mine it was important even when I started working they asked for that while my DBS was in process.
Alright then

I guess I didn't explore other job options

What does this mean on an iPhone (real life experiences preferably) and how can it be removedhuh


Thanks.
It means the device was given to an employee by a company - MDM managed devices over intune, jumpcloud or jamf.

The employer can remotely wipe the device or control the apps and. settings you can install

Nigerians / chinese guys bypass it though and resell in Nigeria cheesy

My brother, For you to be a SIA certified door supervisor licence, security guard licence, or key-holding licence, they will ask you to provide your Nigeria police character certificate, then your DBS for England/Wales or Disclosure Scotland for people who reside in Scotland.
My brother, my friend here has his SIA license and he didn't use his 9ja anything

I guess it depends on location
