pansophist:
compare to the number of blacks in the Uk, the wealthy folks are not a sizeable group, that's my point. Of course, you can find one wealthy guy here and there, but they are a tiny minority. And hey, these are my observations when I visit the UK often, I don't live there, and I have no data to back it up, so please take it at a face value.

You don't know network providers devices, have network wallpaper flash wallpapers......

You can unlock locked devices, from your network, after you have paid about half the value (depending on networks).......

Let's not agree to disagree.........

American phones are usually external branded, on most of their devices.......

Considering he studied some choice courses, I wonder why he was unable to score a job to sponsor him or was it that he become complacent due to his romance with a partner or something? I just don't understand

Lexusgs430:
Nope, all network branded devices would have the brand insignia, either printed on the physical devices are brands app installed........

Samsung devices supplied in the UK, are Tri sim devices.......

Motorola - dual sim
Nokia - dual sim
Huawei - dual sim

Etc etc etc etc etc.....

That's what a dealer told me.

"UK used" phones come from China

Happy Sunday fam. Stumbled on this story https://saharareporters.com/2020/12/31/home-office-deport-nigerian-man-after-16-years-uk sad but how do we new entrants avoid whatever could've caused this? I would appreciate your advise pls. @justwise @Lexusgs430

Lexusgs430:
Only two ways to find out ........

- US network branded
- Know importer directly

Any other unbranded device, can come from anywhere..........

@bolded…. I deal on this in Nigeria here. Don’t know if the reason for the term is that the first used phones were brought in from UK, same as using “Belgium used” for cars. But I can authoritatively say for a fact that 80% of used gadgets are actually from the USA. The term is always funny to me tho

pansophist:
Blacks in the UK are broke, and it's disgraceful. If you want to see wealthy black citizens, you'll have to go to Australia and New Zealand. These countries harbours the best of black people.

Halo22:
No wonder, most people that study and settle in UK are the stingiest group of people I have ever seen.

Like Canada, Australia, US. I'm not very conversant with European countries but I heard that Ireland, Netherlands give that opportunity. Something about an EU Blue card.

But leave the UK alone. The schools make the bulk of their revenue from international students. Once that revenue stream dries up, it may make them change their current policies. Same way it pushes them to reinstate the postgraduate 2 year visa.

I said this earlier as well when I said I regretted doing a Master's in UK. Total waste of time and money. School in a country that would give you the opportunity to emigrate.

People that it works for are medical people, Big 4 accountants, IT people.

You can ask/check this thread. I think that is the most current US Tourist visa thread.

A lot can go wrong, she is the student, don’t forget she is not carry the pregnancy for 3months, the husband on the other hand will be working more that 40hrs a week, he may not have time to be home as everyone is suggesting. A pregnant woman need someone around her almost always. ( it may not be everyone but I am talking from my own experiences)

Josh121:
Please look at everything squarely, cause I know some women pregnancy can be very stressful. It brings out aggressiveness, if this happen it will affect everything you ever want to do here. That been said if you check and it looks tough pls and pls abortion is free in UK. Don’t put stress on yourself that will affect you and your mental health.

I believe so as evident from the statistics

Oh thank you so much for this.
! I've been feeling so all alone trying to keep it to myself. Thank you for your kind words. I truly appreciate it.

Joyfuljoyful:
Thank you for your reply. The issue of getting a job. I dont know how possible it is to get employment now that I am pregnant as I do not want all the pressure on my husband.

I don't even know how to cope with three kids especially here. I'm also worried about child care and expenses. We had plans of working towards a tier 2 but I am so uncertain of somethings at the moment.

Thanks.

Hello everyone.

I want to ask a question please no judging. I recently moved here on student visa with my family. I discovered that I am pregnant now and we already have 2 little boys. I am so scared and worried. I haven't even started work as we only recently settled down. We have only been here 3 months. Please anyone ever been in this situation? How did they navigate it?

Or what advice can anyone give me please. I am so down and feeling defeated already. Please advise me.

Thank you.
Joy
