Pure lies, banks don't get blacklisted but rather the applicant that uses a fake SOA get banned.
That was how some unscrupulous and mischievous Nigerians posted in a telegram group that Globus bank has issue with UKVI due to POF, but i used Globus bank for my dependents and they got their visa last month

Babababy:
The issue of bank statements is literally straight forward but in the Nigerian context,its almost rocket science. We do have a lot of people using built accounts, and bank officers have been cashing out on students going to the UK. It is what it is. The onus is to tell people the truth and consequences of using such accounts. Whatever we say wont make it stop, Nigeria is at a certain brink and people are desperate. I believe everyone here is an adult, and people should be able to take responsibility for their actions or inactions. A good fraction of people on this platform are using built account, to deny this is equal to living in Disneyland. The job here is to educate people on consequences, you might be caught and banned. If you dont get caught, you will struggle in the UK, It is extremely difficult without saved funds.

That been said, we have had a few cases of misjudgement from UKVI about statements,and a handful of people have been able to reverse it, a case study is on Part 6,October 12 by @Ezriela. I have attached screen shots.

UKVI doesn't get it right all the time . They are humans after all .

Boss.. na you get this domain naaaa...u suppose remeber that post naaa....u know how many uk travel thread you don close?? Like 2309 and half threads. ...i still dey look for am ooo

WatchYourSix:
I hope i find that guys post that used an immigration lawyer to get the UKVI ....like i said...it might be more than the statement...

they used silent tactics for months only for them to later give the guy him visa without saying anything about the issue again..
They are human beings in UKVI oga... and I kid you not when i say this is not the first time its happening...

WatchYourSix:
This is not the first time the ukvi will say bank statements was falsified when its not....only God knows what they see that makes them say so....mayb its not just the statement...may other things are involved

.and they like maintaining their stand even with AR and further proof because they dont want to lose their integrity.....only wicked immigration lawyers can armstrong UKVI...

Make village people no follow is go ukvi

ICaSNg:
Feels Good to be back after 4 months BAN! GOD no go shame us..



How is visa application going ?

stanvesco:

Thank you big aunty.
Na to just dey wait be that. Much appreciated. You are doing a splendid Job here. Thanks

Mrskolapo1:
.

The dependent can use his or her own account,
Someone that has already been in the UK can still use the same funds to his dependent

TeamLagos147:
Thanks for your input. Any idea of what could be delaying my applications? How long does it usually take to get an offer?

Cjaylawson:
Jan and April

TeamLagos147:
I have applied to 7 schools since 30th of May and I haven't received a single admission letter. I have the school fees and POF sitting in my account but no admission letter talk more of a CAS letter.

I studied Business Admin as my first degree and I applied for MSc. Computer science, am I doing anything wrong? I sent emails to some of the schools and their response was that they have so many applications they are dealing with and they have prioritized applications from agents.

I'm worried I might not meet up with the September resumption date. Please I need advise on how to move forward with this.

Thanks!

@Justwise

You are doing a wonderful work here. Kudos to you. I have some burning Questions please.

Would a fully funded PhD cover dependents visa, IHS etc


My wife's expecting two fully funded PhDs and I am anticipating acceptance.
Why? Excellent undergraduate result and an MSc of 6.9/7.0 from a very topnotch federal University in Nigeria. I have deeply prayed and now I want to do my own part.


Please back to my question please. Paradventure she secures one of the two fully funded PhDs and from what I read here so far she doesn't need proof of fund and IHS.

However I as the dependent and one child. Are we covered by the funding?
Do we ( me and my daughter) both need the POF and IHS?


The major wahala is I need to prepare the POF account in advance paradventure her acceptance and CAS comes in any moment. (We dream of emigrating together)

Please I want to be lazy and wait for the outcome of the admission process. However the oversabi mediko in me wants to plan everything out in advance and it's stressing me!
Your advice would help greatly Biko.


Summary;
1) would the 2 dependents to someone offered a fully funded PhD require POF and IHS
2) Should I go now as a dependent or wait to follow my Plab pathway?


Please I have stayed too long in this "about-to-japa" pathway

Ugmama:
Lol! Please advise how it's done over there and the one I should look at for?

You know Naija people dey stay for self-contain or facemeiface you .

Any headup (advice) on getting accommodation fast in UK for a couple.

Cjaylawson:

Ugmama:
@justwise is it possible for man and wife to stay in a single room in UK till they find their feet, or shared apartment, or must be double room?

Cjaylawson:
I just find out now that my wife is pregnant with twins Tru scan will our ihs be sufficient and secondly can she have d baby in UK den come back to Nigeria to spend some month in Nigeria before going back to UK pls duchess justwise and all d gurus in d house should advice me pls

dduchess90:
Hello,

Not intentional, it has been a busy day and I can't seem to post from duchess90 acct anymore(not sure why)

Plus that is a long request and will need alot of research to come up with such a list if at all.

The only thing I am going to add is that people should try to look out for companies that have the license to sponsor skilled workers visa and keep a track or notification on their career page for adverts and apply.

Some companies may not be on the list but are willing to go through the process for the right candidate.

Here's a link; https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/register-of-licensed-sponsors-workers

One of these days I'll circle back on this

Cheers

Vicktorhmustjap:

I'm the main Applicant... I did my biometric 9th May.. I sent a paid mail 30th May, status says that decision has been made that I should give 10 working days to get a collection mail.. up till now no mail for collection...

My dependants wants to apply as thier pof is over 28 days already...

Any advantages or disadvantages....

@Justwise

Please, is it possible to transfer from one University in the UK to another University in the UK on the same course?

I am currently studying Nursing, and I am almost done with my first year. Still, for some personal family reasons and the level of racism in my current city (there are very few blacks in my current city), I would like to transfer to a University in the Midlands for Mental Health Nursing in September for my second year. I have been in talks with the University I want to move to, and it looks like it will be positive.

My only fear now is with my Student Visa.

Do I have to return to Nigeria to apply for a new Student Visa when the new University gives me a CAS, or can I apply for a new student visa within the UK?

erico2k2:
erm how are they meant to know the Old pound notes? etc$ area easier to get than £ cos BTC in Nigeria convert their £ to $ at the 1st opportunity. You also forget the point I made that you can convert it back to ££ once in the Uk at no commission and might even had gained against the £ at that point.

erico2k2:
Well yes, commission free at Morrisons, its safer than risking buying fake Pounds by the road side. You are more prone to buying fake $ than fake £. well that's my opinion from personal experience.
you want to know that worse part? is buying Old pound note we no longer use.

erico2k2:
If I was you, I will buy Dollars instead of pound just to be safe.

bharkarh:
what if it’s the dependent that got pregnant? Will it still come at no cost? Can the student apply for visa extension too?

WatchYourSix:
So what you are saying is ...even though the dependant rode into uk on the t4 visa of the main applicant....the dependent can still apply for post study visa without the main applicant whos visa has ended before the end of dependent's programme....?? Ok

WatchYourSix:
I want to ask....If a dependant is studying to get a masters degree....naturally the dependant's masters will end after the main apllicants programme since the dependant will start his or her masters after arriving in the uk...

What happens to the dependents study if the main applicant's t4 visa ends and denied post study visa....??
