Please, guys, is it just me, or is anyone else also experiencing horrible slowness when downloading files larger than 2GB? It took me 12 hours to download a file of 2.38GB, and it affects the entire network. I've tried on different networks such as MTN, Airtel, and 9mobile. It wasn't like this before. Am I the only one?

On some cases, the website you're downloading from may have speed limits, so no matter how good network is, it won't exceed a particular speed.

Imagine you're downloading from such low speed website and your network is poor too. Double wahala

Auraking:
Hi guys, plus I downloaded some videos on telegram and I can't find it in the file manager, even the telegram folder.

Plus, what do I do about it?

I'm using redmi 12c

You may see it in telegram documents folder depending on the video format. Also confirm of the video downloaded fully

justBreathe:


Hi bro.
Thanks for replying quick.

I actually formatted the card on my Phone before use.

I want you to understand the problem please: It keeps requesting this formatting every single time I reboot my phone.

If I don't reboot, no issues.
But once I reboot, the issue resurfaces.


I also did not format the card via PC at all. Before rebooting, I connected my phone to the PC to transfer files to the phone (not SD card) and was then able to see the memory capacity of the card in "This PC" view.

I'm looking for a permanent fix as not rebooting my phone again is not feasible.

The card is a microSDXC

If you can, avoid anything memory card. Use otg storage if you need extra space

Please I have 15k MTN credit for sale. How do I trade this into cash? Opinions needed please. Thank you.

I haven't personally tried it. But the option is on palmpay. I believe it would be bought at a lower price from you

Omo. But Nigerians dey really endure shit o. The rate at which dollar dey rise and the stressful means we have to go through to obtain it is alarming.

I come go check the last order I made with my GTB naira card. I wanted to know how long it has been since naira cards stopped working and when the government threw all of us into the abyss of misery.

When I checked, I saw it was December I made that order. That's like seven months ago. All these things wey our eyes don see come make am be like say e don reach 5 years.

God help us

Omo I no dey use any virtual dollar card apps for now. The stress too much. Gotok wey I dey rely on don terminate my card.

I hope the naira cards start working soon

You can't buy Dollars at 700 as at now though it might have been possible a few days ago when there was a rumour that CBN devalued Naira to ₦630/$ and will be maintaining a single exchange rate for both official and back market rates.
This news led to panic selling on Binance USDT/NGN spot market and some people that already had buy orders at around 700 were able to buy dollars for cheap.

I get it now. Thanks

nonny1212:
Good morning. My order just arrived speedaf Asaba. My normal location is onitsha but being that onitsha doest open today and Monday, can I go to their Asaba office and pick up. Note: my delivery address is onitsha but the package is currently at speedaf DC in asaba

Is it a registered package? Of yes, just chill, it Will get to you. Even of its unregistered.

Maybe their distribution center is asaba before sending down to your side

mctfopt:


Open an account with binance. Then use GTB naira card to buy BUSD on the P2P on Binance. Go to gotok and fund it with Binance Pay

Abeg at what rate will I be buying dollars worth this method? Is it significantly cheaper?

Abeg who get small generator around oyo town for sale at fair price?

Olamak1:


It's not compulsory you must have up to $1 as balance. My account balance was less than $.70 as at last week before I did a card top up.

That's true. I think they mean $1 minimum funding cos I have 0.20 as my balance currently

Babalegba:
I called their Customer service and asked them to deliver my unregistered package, they told me they would do it for 400 naira and that I should make myself available. I hung around for four days then realized that they were not coming and went to their office which is where it should not really be.

Lol. From my experience with them, that 400 delivery fee is just formality, they don't honor it at all.

Abeg if your order don dey successfully cleared by customs, make we know o. So as so raise hopes again

icon91:


Yh, i noticed thesame but limitations dy on the options of most goods they sell, for e.g you may want to buy an item with options of different colour, pouch, more batteries but it won't be available, they choose only the cheapest option most times

That aside, both NG******R & NG*******E are shipped with SpeedAF but one that ends with 'E' is self pick up but 'R' is home delivery, do 'Choice' deliver only for home or both home & pick up?

From my experience all choice orders are usually registered packages NG...R

I'll say I'm in this failed customs situation because of that useless payday app.

It was my first option for virtual card but my funding via transfer took 2 days to reflect so I ended things with them immediately.

After my ordeal with them, I turned to gotok which I used successfully.

If only I paid when I first started with payday, my order would have arrived before that 28th when the strike began.

Now we don't even know how long it will take before they suspend the strike

Who knows maybe they'll even tax us on every item now. My mind just dey reason many things

Kai. I hate this suspense and uncertainty

Omo this failed to clear at customs na everybody o.

I come dey fear say my order no go reach me.

If it boils down to dispute I don't think we can win o

9jamemez:


So bro, which one is a registered package and unregistered package, how do we know which one is. Before we order

From my knowledge, any shipping that says trackable is registered e.g AliExpress standard shipping , AliExpress selection standard etc. The main point is that you will see that it's trackable from the shipping description.
The tracking number usually begins with NG and ends with R but you can't see tracking number till you've paid for the order.

Unregistered packages will not be trackable and as such the tracking number if it begins with NG will end with E.

You see all those cainiao, sunyou, Singapore post shipping methods, they are usually untrackable.

I'm not saying untrackable orders are bad. But it's in your best interest to use trackable shipping

peteregwu:
Some people buying from aliexpres are always bothering about who will deliver their item to them. As for me I don't even bother about it. All I do is to order my item and leave the rest for aliexpress to determine who they will use to deliver my item.

LUCKY YOU. Lemme give you a bit of insight as to why some people are bothered.

You see any package that is shipped by AliExpress standard shipping, or AliExpress selection standard or those 3 in 1 orders, those are usually trackable and registered packages. Those packages will definitely reach you if there are no problems along the way. Most likely speedaf home delivery.

The problem is with unregistered packages with free shipping. Some may land in post office which is very good cos you'll pick it up yourself. While some will get to speedaf. Na where problem dey start be that.

For such unregistered packages, they MIGHT call you to come pickup at a specific location which is also fair. They may also send a mail telling you to come pickup at their office or schedule home delivery for 400 naira. But sometimes, their office is too far from your location and the trip may not be worth it for small items. You may need to forfeit the order if the cost of pickup is more then the item.

This happened to me last year for 2 orders like that.

Also from my experience, that 400 naira home delivery na scam. They don't even honour they option.

That's why I prefer shipping handled by AliExpress

mosho2good:
Plz has anyone use Gotok to order on AliExpress, the message I ask it seems it only one person that reply that I should use Gotok cause I don't want a situation whereby I will load and won't be able to use it on AliExpress

I used it for payment last week. Quite easy to load and setup.

If you experience any errors during payment, just appeal the card. After that, all other payments will go through

stylishwears:
@kennyflyair, you tried all? What was your experience with the owofi app

Lol. I mean the major ones talked about here. Like klasha and payday. I never hear owofi o

mosho2good:
I want to order for a screen on AliExpress and it only naira card I'm familiar with til they block it and I haven't use the dollar card before to order from AliExpress.
I need someone to guide me on which one to use that has good rate to other for the screen cause I can't find the screen here in Nigeria and I've other for the screen before in AliExpress.
Plz help me

Download GOTOK from playstore. It's the most straightforward of these virtual dollar card apps. Trust me I've tried all of them.

Within 10 minutes, your USD card is ready. No mumu utility bill verification

You can use my referral when registering cos me and you go benefit https://links.gotok.app/sv5cbABdqb6RyCtN8

I ordered this phone from jumia some minutes ago, but I just realized that the screen of Redmi 10c is not 6.53 but 6.71.
Is this a mistake from the heading or is there a second Redmi 10c I don't know about?
Guys, I need answers. I no want to order chinko.

Jumia specs is not always correct. It's 6.71 according to gsmarena

Adebayolove:


Yes. If you buy BUSD via p2p at rate, say 745, gotok 1% will be 7.45 making a total of 752.45.

I don't think there is any virtual card currently cheaper than this.

I recently funded my gotok at around 767 per dollar and from your calculations, I don't think it's worth the stress to fund using binance except your doing hundreds to thousands of dollars. Bot me wey no dey do pass 20 dollar dey see am like stress

Olamak1:


Where are you stuck? In cause your card is being rejected by Aliexpress with the option to appeal, and after appealing, the problem still persists, you may have to do the following :
1. Update the Gotok mobile application. The former version has bug. But the latest has taken care of the bug.
2. If you still can't make payments, use their mobile or desktop web version @

This really helped when I had problem funding my card and making payments on AliExpress, just before the update to their mobile app.

huwah:


Complain to Ali express and verify your card details. I am enjoying gotok card but buying black market dollar rate sha.

I appealed the payment and repaid successfully. Thanks

Olamak1:


The best place to find out is on YouTube. There are countless videos that will show you how to do that. I used to be a novice too but that is what I did and it really helps.
You need video tutorials on the following
How to:
*buy crypto (usdt) via p2p on binance.
*transfer of crypto from funding wallet to spot wallet.
* convert usdt to BUSD.
*fund your Gotok card with BUSD by selecting 'Binance pay' on the gotok mobile application. These may sound complicated, but are simple.

I want to ask, is it cheaper buying dollars from binance compared to funding with naira from normal bank account?

Kennyflyair:
Since I created the virtual card on gotok, I haven't been successful in paying for items on AliExpress. Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe I'm not doing something right.
Ps. I have more than enough fund for what I want to buy so that's not the issue

Turns out all I had to do was appeal the payment. Appeal was successful. And payment has gone through. For those who have similar issues

atheistandproud:


Ignore those idiots at Raya, everything na board issue to them. If you carry your son go there say e get headache, instead of paracetamol, them go suggest board replacement. That's the only thing they know.

Go and ask around, do research, look for a capable technician in your vicinity and tell him your issue. No give am phone, just tell him your issue. His confidence and his reply is what will determine if you'll give him your phone or not.

Wise words

Ojimmu95:

Ok boss, could it be what is making it drain fast?
Thanks a tonne

I don't think so

Ojimmu95:

Good morning, please my redmi 9A doesn't last, it drains faster after charging it, the follow come charger stop functioning on its own, I now use the follow come cord with a charger head of 5.0v, 1A
The battery capacity is 5,000 mah.
Thanks.

5v 1a is too low for a 5000mah battery. Get at least 5v 2a charger brick.

Abeg which app or site to turn airtime to cash I. Mistakenly load large amount of money to my line its mtn

or you can use palmpay app since it's mtn airtime. Use the Recharge2cash option. I haven't personally tried it, but I believe it should work. You fit try with 500 airtime first just in case
