Hello people,

Please I need advice and help. Today is my 8th day at the hotel and I still can't get a house yet. Houses I've seen are mostly shared apartment and they won't accept us because we're a family of 3. Our baby is just a year and 1month. I sincerely Don't have money to renew., Checked studio flats as well but it's been negative so far.

Wifey's school is Westminster university a I have a budget of 900poundsper month. 1 hr commute is fine, y'all should pls suggest best area that fits this budget for easy commute. I can't even think bou work when we're not yet settled.

Make una help me abeg...
Open an account on gumtree and place your inquiry there , landlords and agents will contact you and scammers will also contact you so you need to be careful. State the sort of accommodation you are looking for and areas you are interested in.
If you can afford to offer 3-6 rent advance payment do that and again be careful because many scammers will be giving you too -good -to -true offers

Good morning MR justwise
Good morning everyone
PLS READ for your safety

Please let’s be careful with who we chat/ send mail for Tier4 enquiry , he will now send u one of his number to chat him up and starts requesting for video calls with d excuse that he doesn’t like audio just to track ur face , and he likes to deviate from important conversation
, go to talking plenty rubbish later wards , be careful When you chat/ send mail to this guy ( ELVIS FRUIT — is his Nairaland name ) he drops his WhatsApp number ending 090…..2163 or any of his number , he did it to another girl
From discussing Sch to discussing rubbish

He was angry I told him I paid to another university.

I choose not to be his friend or talk to him cos I perceived violence when he talks , he always demanding for video calls when I want to make enquiry from him as if I am his lover . I only chatted him when I saw he said he has done PCI ( January Intake ) , just for me to make Enquiry about the Ulster university, I regret saying a word to him.

HE GETS SO ANGRY WHEN I DONT PICK HIS VIDEO CALLS OR CUT HIM SHORT ON VIDEO CALLS .
He will start sending abusive words to trigger my anger all the time , even wen I try to make peace and tell him am not interested in his nonsense that I only want info of his university since he has done PCI .

He is higher killer and Assasin ooo that is what he is going to ULSTER to do . Imagine a full grown man moving to UK to constitute nuisance.in 2022 , instead of building a new life , and he claim to have been in Germany ( I guess prison ) that is why he is going to Uk after constituting nuisance in Germany , he has stained Germany now he wants to stain UK with blood

He is going to Ulster university January intake , I guess he left this february, that is if he has left to UK

THIS IS THE MAIL HE sent after I blocked him on WhatsApp

I also screen shot the mail

Chreze:
We talk about fees and financial stuff a lot on these threads (here n student), I think we need to talk more about how to manage some situation too (situations like this). A lot of people are traveling for the first time and there is this old mindset that whites are not nice or racist and all that. This old tales make people hold things inside instead of asking for help.

If I were to be in this situation, I would have knocked on the next room to explain my situation and pass the night with the person. I don’t mind knocking on 5 doors till I get someone to say “ok you can come in”.

It’s a very painful story. Anytime I think about the parents I just get sad. If you ever find yourself in any uncomfortable situation, just ask for help from anyone around you, forget about authorities at that time. You will be surprised that the oyibo you think are racist secretly wants to have a black friend. A lot of them want one now. Ask for help from your next door neighbors, your neighborhood. It’s better to ask for help than suffer. People are nicer now. Fewer racist this days, thanks to TikTok and others that have connected the world with fun and jokes.

The guy story pain me well well. Can’t imagine the parents, from having high hopes to no hopes. Very painful.
Many new travellers spent all their time focusing on getting a visa and little time on how to survive in a foreign land, Many will come here to ask question about accommodation after getting a visa, bought ticket then they will come here to ask how to get a place or if there is job in that city.

You also have to be careful about what you say to someone that has never travelled before else it will be tagged as discouragement.

Ukraine is a dead-end country that has very little to offer foreign students.

I might be wrong but I don’t think it’s UKVI that is supposed to refund us, it is TLS contact that sold those services, tens of thousands of people paid for both priority, high priority and superiority services that weren’t rendered, and it is been two months since then, and we are yet to get any form of reasonable response from them. Another problem is they don’t respond to mails at all, I have been sending mails for two months now.
TLS do not process visa applications, UKVI does and the money you paid is for faster visa processing. TLS is like the embassy post office that handle visa application submission. The money goes to UKVI

It takes time to get a refund from UKIV unfortunately, it takes at least 6 weeks in most cases. You will get your money back definitely but the process is frustrating.

Please can I get an idea of monthly electricity bill.
Heating in one room always on (regulates itself though), fridge always on (regulates itself as well), electric cooker, microwave oven, electric jug, laptop and phone. No TV even.
Mine is £170. Scared of what it will become post increment.
That is high, reduce your heating and cover up with some winter clothing, I don't know how cold your house is but you need to do something else that figure will go up

Hello guys,

please I need to confirm something, the Advanced Fee Payment required before one gets the CAS, is it part of the overall tuition fee or a separate fee on its own.
For example if the tuition fee is = £18000. Advanced Fee Payment = £3000.
Does this mean that tuition balance is £15000 or the £3000 is a separate payment towards the admission
Yes.

Thank you for your response.
And thanks to everyone for their comment.
Please how can I send a letter of apology since I have accepted responsibility for my actions?
Send it the same way you send AR, it may not change anything but nothing wrong with trying. Someone here was lucky to get ban removed but the refusal stands for the same crime as yours

The agreement was to get the money deposited and pay the %.
Few days later after paying the %, was told I will get the statement and not worry about the deposit but I can be sure it’s verifiable.
I know how many readers are feeling about this but it was someone very close to me that introduced me and this was based on trust, you really need see how I was convinced about it.
I felt I need put this out there for others to learn.
Can I still find Grace @justwise
I don’t usually allow post like this here but sometimes I do so as to serve as a reminder to others.

Going for AR is waste of time and energy because you got caught red handed, unless you want to send letter of an apology and take responsible for your action. They may remove the ban but the refusal will stand.

Did you guys hear about the young man who travelled to Ukraine for School and died almost immediately from cold? His room had no heating. So sad cry
He uploaded pictures of disgusting accommodation he was given and told his mother that he has complained to the school administration but was told to come back the next day , he was found dead in the same room wearing the same clothing he arrived Ukraine with. Really sad story.

Hello house, a friend sent this to me and she needs urgent reply, I’ll be happy if anyone can please help out.

Good afternoon please I urgently need an advice.
Okay so at the moment I am in the UK my school is insisting on me paying 60% of my fees before I can register and we were given till 28th of January before the 28th I sent the school an email explaining to them that my dad has a stroke and I spent all my tuition on his treatment that they should please give me a payment plan, I got an email back saying that that is not possible that my request cannot be granted that I need to pay up before that 28th or my visa would be revoked.
My mum went abd hushed and got 1500 pounds out of 3740 pounds to pay I sent them the receipt,payment was confirmed and now they asked me to send a medical report so they can listen to my request. I have been trying to get a medical report since Friday last week my mum has been running around trying to get one but all to no avail I am really confused I don’t know what to do.


Please, can I just help her get a medical report from one of these hospitals here or will they confirm it it’s genuine or not?

If the confirmation is just by phone number and email provided, I can still find a way around that
You are banned from this section for posting this, the chicken has come home to roast.

Good luck with forging medical report and hoping that the school will not run a check.

I can get all other information on the school website...

I recently graduated from the university and i got admission in school of nursing here in Nigeria.


I have an uncle who is based in USA and he wants me to come over to USA and take care of his child for two yrs.After two yrs,he will sponsor me to any school of my choice n within the two yrs,i will be doing part time program.

I will be 25yrs this year.

Should i continue with my nursing school which will be resuming on April or accept the offer.I am in a dilemna.

Pls advice me.
Mod pls help move it to front page .Thanks all
That is probably all your uncle wants you for, after two years the story will change, are those kids not going to need your care after 2yrs?

If you are lucky to get a visa you will be stamped in for 3-6months and if you stayed longer than that you are an illegal immigrant. Once you became an illegal immigrant your uncle has an upper hand, you will be totally under his control.

He is not sending you to any school, if he has the money to send you to school he will use it to employ a nanny for those kids
