Good evening, observed that the lump sum in my POF was debited yesterday, contacted the bank and I was told it was system error, it was later returned…having “reversal” as it’s narration within the space of two hours. Please is it possible I still continue reading the POF from the initial date the Lump sum entered(10days ago) or from today?

P.S: POF is for CAS

Hello guys. I have a serious issue. I arrived the UK few weeks ago. My employer wanted to give me the company car today for visiting clients and told a south African guy to accompany me to test my driving. It was quite different from the manual car i drove in naija and I had issues putting it in gear one. The guy just looked at me for close to ten minutes as I tried to put it in gear one in the roads in and afterwards he shouted on me to come down tgat that he is going to report me to the office that I can't drive. He drove to the office and worked in to discuss with the boss. My boss didn't wait to hear from me and said I have to go back to my country since I can't drive. I insisted I can drive. She said she can't enter the car to test my driving but my manager convinced her to and joined at the back. She however explained how to put it in gear one and I drove them for a short distance.

She said I should come and drive her husband round the city tomorrow to prove my driving prowess. She insisted i get a car immediately and said my case will be determined tomorrow.

I heard the SA guy is bringing his sister-in-law to the company. Don't know what to think right now or what to say to them tomorrow. I need advice

Damtos0903361:
This group is quite oooooo, hope no problem? Where are those that are criticising? The problem they have is they are not matured enough in giving advice

Thank you bro.

I appreciate

I'll keep you all posted.

Please what do I look at for when buying on eBay o, I’ve not used it before

@lexusgs460

OmichaelO:
sincere apologies lol. I was too vague

S22 or pixel 7

OmichaelO:
samsung or google pixel. But the latter is not very appealing to me

Treadway:
This is not an issue of sham marriages and/or shady study POF. T[b]his is the whites once again showing their disdain and showing you that they can spit in your face all they want[/b]. There are two clear issues, which are valid but it is still of their own design.

Ironically, this is being championed by someone who is from an immigrant household.

First issue is they say una immigrants dey unskilled. Yep, all ye top people going to do care jobs are unskilled as far as the UK is concerned. How? You all aren't contributing enough to the GDP to justify your presence. Immigrants have to do 17x extra to get good jobs with good salary in UK standards, not naira conversion. Meaning whatever taxes you think you are paying now is not significant enough. The population is increasing due to the influx, but GDP per capita is reducing because the influx are not contributing enough to the economy due to the fact that they are in unskilled low level jobs. This is a fact, but like I said it is their own design.

Second issue, that concerns Nigerians negatively is that bar chart that was in the news last week or so. That bar chat is like a flashing neon light screaming 'these Nigerians need serious attention'. We aren't the highest number of immigrants but we have the overwhelmingly highest student-dependednt ratio, basically 1:1, while other that have almost x7 of student population have like ratio 9:1 and even higher. That is LOUD and warrant attention by any analyst. So, you see, another fact, but this one is not totally of their design, but can I blame the Nigerians who are moving their families along with them, because their true purpose of travelling wasn't studying? I would be called a bad belle if I said that, but ask yourslef if it is a lie. It is clear to them that Nigerians particularly aren't really coming for study.

Two things will happen now. One, they will still make admissions easy, but post-study will be limited to only specific fields, skills, experiences. Everyone else gets 6mth to a year PSW, after which failure to get job sponsorship, you're out. Second, they will cap the number of dependants that can come to 1 (they may limit this to just Nigeria). This will put a lot of people in a dilemma. Family man wey get wife and two children, who will be the dependent??.

Cc Jedisco I'd like to hear your thoughts on my points

OmichaelO:
You people should come to my rescue o, my phone suddenly died yesterday night, Looking at it, it might cost up to 500 to fix considering what I’m seeing on their website.

My question is, I’m just 2 months in, can I get a contract phone or just buy another one outrightly?

Which store or outlet will allow contract? Is buying used phone advisable also here? If I was in home, Nairaland deal hunters would have been best bet

@lexusgs460, justwise and all. Please advise me.

I have gotten my refund back from @walspring, while it is sad my registration and plans ended up this way, I still want to commend the way he settled it amicably.

Lexusgs430:
You either want it or not ......... You cannot love their money, and/but hate their presence..........

This policy is coming back full circle......... Students would simply start marrying British citizens, all over again........

Let's see how they can circumvent that manoeuvre....

mex551:
Just seeing this now. I hope uk immigration laws are not retrospective. Especially for those that are already here hoping to get 2 years Post work permit

Lexusgs430:
A very clear difference exists in clarification vs perceived bad belleism..........

We also need to understand the difference between residential vs buy2let mortgage structure.........

You cannot buy a property with residential mortgage, then let property out......... That's a form of defrauding your lender.........

Treadway:
na so oo.. lol
What's funny is you can say this, and all agree you're offering clarification + stating a fact, yet Munamoqel said same a while ago and was called bad belle.

But still on still, if I have made a down-payment and I have the keys, I should be able to rent parts of the house out, provided I don't default for the duration of that arrangement...and beyond. interesting. So I pay shitload of money to get a house I'd probably spend my productive years paying for, but the income I can make on my hefty investment is capped to 625 a month. Na wa o. What tax rate will apply when it is higher than 625 a month?

Mamatukwas:
Nope. They still have 5 years to go before ILR. This is BRP with a permanent job (non medical/shortage list). So Visa fee per person was £1,423 before you add IHS for 5 years. Multiply by 4.

Mamatukwas:
Random Musings: What’s the largest amount you’ve heard a family has had to pay for their BRP?

Today I heard £18k and was completely blown! Family of 4. 5 years visa fee + IHS. That’s crazzzyyyyyyy!!! A whole mortgage deposit! Whew! You think your own is bad until you hear what other peeps are going through.

dustydee:
And we were here a few weeks back saying the best man for the job (Rishi) did not win but some people disagreed. Kwasi was just implementing Liz's campaign promise but he should have known better.
These conservatives are just toying with us. During the leadership campaign, Boris' camp was said to prefer Liz so that they can get her out quickly and bring him back. Looks like that script is playing out well so far.

Nooziinoo:
I hope you understand that this would only make things worst? If I can’t get a visa date search group here and people don’t post transcripts here, why would I come here at all when I can be proactive and help myself by joining any of the groups?

FineDragon:
Please if you're gonna ban WhatsApp groups, how does one go about date search? Because really it's sad that with the situation in the country that you'll exploit someone due to your greediness, I was gonna pay an agent to get a date for nov/dec for interview, cause my mom hope is me getting there, and mind you I'm still awaiting passport which has been in production for 8 weeks now since I did capturing and already have admission to the school for spring session, do you see how many months remain until then, it will be the Grace Of God, if I can meet up. But the never say never attitude is imbibed and please let's not abstain from helping each other, please � no matter what he who does good here, will surely be repaid, same as the person who does bad. We will all get to our destination, Mafo my people

Hello @Justwise

@giselle237 spotted this post,

Can you help ban?

Cheers

NozinoGroup:
We both know it wasn’t this bad. The WhatsApp group was a solution. I don’t believe it is a problem. How else do you want people to do it?

dduchess90:
Hello

Yes

But you won't be able to work

Cheers

NozinoGroup:
How else will people look for Visa dates? Search groups make it easier to search for visa dates as a collective. Time slot are allocated to each member. Don’t forget that you can only check 3times a day.

NozinoGroup:
Please do something about the WhatsApp groups (Aside date search groups for obvious reasons).
Everything now takes place there. No one even comes to share transcripts here anymore.

Lasisieniola77:
I think the reason why most people decided not to share again was because, there was a time when someone said people should stop dropping their transcripts and again when people seek for help, those that has the experience don't even offer to help again unlike before where you can easily come here and share your troubles and people will be ready to help. You can see that there has been alot of unanswered questions on the group. Although, we know that is not by force to help but please those that have gone through that route should assist.

lifeofgolden1:
Sir, the reason is not far-fetched. It is simply because of the different WhatsApp groups that were created for date search. So many peeps after getting an interview date, and thereafter attend their interview, won't come back here to say something so that we can learn. Instead, they just go from there. If you noticed, it has been long someone came here to say something about their interview experience. It is quite sad.

I think this whatsapp thing should stop!!

SIMPLIFIED:
I contacted him and after all the explaining that does not make sense to me but for the benefit of doubt, I have asked for a refund to be made from now till weekend which he promised to make. I will also give an update if I get my refund
