ferdimako: I am still thinking hard. When he mentioned voucher, that struck me.I really don't know how reduced it is to use voucher. All I will find out tomorrow from ETS. Again I may still hold back his cash until I see my TOEFL results.

loomjet: @ justwise! If I choose to appeal do I have to go thru a solicitor or can my spouse represent me?

ferdimako: He said he used voucher but what I don't know if the payment via that option is cheaper. I remember paying via voucher in 2001.But it was paper-based and I mailed the package to the Netherlands.

So it is either after calling tomorrow to ascertain the authenticity of the payment or we all wait till my results come home and it's released that I will pay. And going by what Nigerians are capable of doing, I will follow the latter. Note it wasn't just the reduced money...but the easiness and prompt delivery. So everyone should hold on while I come out the guinea pig,'confirmedly' scammed (not paid yet)or okay. Mr Amefrica, what is your take and situation? Mr DELETED paid for you right?

olarwarlay: When will people learn for God's sake?. Do You need a prophet to tell You that registering below the stipulated ETS charge is a scam?. Now, see what You guys have gotten yourself into.

We all really need to change the way We reason, We tend to blame our government for being corrupt and spoilt but in reality, We are not helping matters too 'coz why would a genuine student who made up His mind to sit for an exam fall for this?. It would even have been better not writing it at all.

The other day I was angry because my school's official courier said they do noy accept credit card payment from Nigerians, this is why they do not trust Us!

#Justwise, please see to it that this guy is banned totally from this thread... He is a disgrace to Our dear Country!!!

justwise: Got his ID and he is banned.

Amefrica: @Ferdimako, I dont know who DELETED is.. But our case looks similar, let's jez wait n see..

loomjet: Note really, but I have evidence that I withdrew my application from the home office

fittty: No I don't. Been searching for it too

vandarsar: Hi Nairalanders, this is to announce that i can register candidates for toefl

pls mail me up if @ vandarsar@hotmail.com.

NOTE: I dont sit for candidates or hire people to do such,
all am capable of doing is to register you for the exam at a cheaper price than you would normally have paid to ets.

Thanks

Deep Sight: Unless you are ignorant of the Nigerian Corporate and Business circles, you would know that tens of thousands of Brits have to visit Nigeria all the time for business purposes. Big Business.

loomjet: I applied for the stay before we got seperate in the uk. i applied in uk when i was on a visit visa in 2008. the application was refused because they said as a visitor i cant change my status , that i have to return to nigeria to apply for a spoues visa. i wasnt giving any right of appeal so i applied for judicary review in the uk . this process was taking so long.while waiting for the court my first marriage broke down.while i was separted with my previous wife i met my current wife in march 2011 and i witdrew my judical review and left uk voluntary in 2012 march. i got dirvorced in sept 2012 and i got married again to my current wife in jan 2013.

fittty: No I don't. Been searching for it too

loomjet: Pls everyone am still awaiting for ur advice. Should and appeal and aslo reapply. can i do the 2 at the same time. while awaiting for the appeal process i want to make a fresh application aswel. 6months is sooo long

loomjet: Thank you so must Justwise, pls how do you think i can convince the first reason of refuasl. T[b]he divorce certificate states that the marriage has broken down irretrievably since the parties had lived apart for over 3 years , however records in the UK shows that u applied for leave to remain as a spouse of a settled person to ur previous wife in dec 2008. you continued to pursue with this application until it was refused and u left the uk voluntary on the 31/03/2012. Therefore [/b]..
I was separeted wen i met my current patner in uk. i submitted 2 flight ticket of my wife when she visited me in nigeria and the ECO said i submitted just one . pls advice me . Am thinking of reapplying

Ms Nas: If you paid less than the official $175 charged by ETS for the TOEFL Test, then I tell you authoritatively, the guy scammed you and shortchanged ETS. I know what he did, because I almost fell into that trap too. What they do is that, they get credit cards from those scammers, use the credit card (which isn't theirs) to register for you. Hence, the fee they collected from you will be cheap since the money they used to pay for the test isn't theirs. I only pray for you, that the card doesn't charge back, before your exam or before you have a chance to view and print your scores. Otherrwise, once ETS attempts to verify the payment (which they do, but I dunno how they do that), the card company will decline the payment and charge ETS extra money for the deception or whatsoever. ETS will they withold your scores until you pay up. And they'll even add additional $20 (the chargeback fee the credit company levied them). Hope I made sense o! Just my 2 cents

fittty: DELETED should be banned from nairaland. He has just put somone in a big mess!

OMO IBO: Regardless bruh.
The Govt of India should have something to say about this.

OMO IBO: With the exception of british arlines (british airways and virgin atlantic)I'm not sure this'll hurt cameron as core british interest in nigeria is far between. plus, they do not depend heavily on our oil.

I must say though, I'm surprised india is on that list. A few months ago (last year, I believe), cameron and his buds, including theresa may, were in india begging for alms A.k.A investments.

Jaguar/land rover is owned by TATA of india. An indian owns the biggest steel manufacturing company in the UK and possibly the world- Mittel.

How theresa may and cameron got here is beyond me. They got this one wrong.

adaobi123: Fair dodger

If his other 'arm' was removed from the bus I would be impressed

master007: @ justwise. Please Wise men in the house take time to reply each of my question.
1. Deposit of only £1200 acceptable by school
2. Do I need to book an accomodation before going to vfs centre
3. Should I indicate my expired passport which I have been refused netherland visa in year 2008 but als have travelled to singapore and India on that passport?
4. Should I include my foriegn proffessional certificates
5. My company is giving me a study leave letter for the course but I have only spent one year plus with the company.
6. student tier 4 visa application website and do I need to print each page of the application form as I am filling them?

FutureDon: I understand that the use of agent nauseates Justwise. I'm not a fan of agents either, however I would answer your question.

You don't have to worry since the school only asked you to pay a deposit of 1200. However, it is imperative that you have the tuition balance + maintenance fee in your account.

No, you don't have to wait till August before applying for visa, you can pay the tuition balance when you get to the UK. Your agent should know by now that its not compulsory for you to pay your full tuition before applying for visa.

TonMon: ok thanks.. i'll keep you updated

NaijaIhail: @JUSTWISE.... You are too helpful and always committed to help. I have been following your replies today and I think you are wonderful... Am a great fan!! Keep it up... You're wonderful.

bettymafy: I thought so too. I really hope it isn't true for her sake.

TonMon: they donot have a branch anywhere else

TonMon: @justwise i just remembered something. even though it is not a multinational org, a section of the government as well as other multinational companies have shares in it. its actually many companies that put their resources together to put up the company (including a section of the government. does it qualify then to be a fin sponsor?

Vicjustice: I'm not sure that the ECO was reasonable in judging that a person who earns N200K in Nigeria does not have a satisfying financial circumstance unless of course your bank statement is questionable. But however, the Visa Officer was right in denying you the visa for reason of the threat that you pose to the UK immigration as you stated in the bolded part
