Would this also be a good option if it's a family of say 5 with 10 big bags/luggages each weighing almost 23k? Or the person should book/hire a mini van that usually contains 8 persons?

Yes, I plan to give her something on weekly or monthly basis. I will ask her inlaw to please also give his own oo. I can’t begin to describe the work of childcare for 2 babies less than 3 yrs of age.

I tried a professional minder, she told me £40 for 2 hours in the evening and £40 for 2 hours in the morning. That is £80 for me to go do one shift! How much will the shift pay me na. My husband kuku say make I no drop his kids anywhere. We will do it by ourselves if it means cutting down on our hours, then so be it
We currently working opposite each other. I work when he is off and he works when I am off.

We are both tired and exhausted as it feels like having no day off since our off days are spent babysitting / little kids.

The fact that he/she paid with her debit card and they cancel the order, he/she isn't asking for credit, your credit history doesn't come into this when you are paying with your debit card, he/she stated they even had to approve the transaction via their banking app.

So I don't know why the debit thing comes into it. I don't think people really understands what's going on in here, honestly. This is a good case for her/him to work on.

dustydee:

I am genuienly surprised at some of the comments about your issue. Please do not be deterred and follow it up. You have a very good case and moreover what you are asking for is just an acknowledgement of wrong from them. Maybe because I have undergone GDPR training that's why it's easy for me to see the wrong here.

PayPal approved the payment, if PayPal rejects it then I won’t be directed back to John Lewis’ website with an order confirmation. I’ve been using PayPal since Nigeria so I’ve never really had issues with them. It was John Lewis who rejected the payment. Oh well, it is what it is.

Amarathripple0:
Good morning elders,

Please I would like to find out if this is discrimination or if I’m just overreacting. The gist is, I tried to order a laptop worth £800+ from John Lewis using the PayPal pay in 3 option. Mind you I’ve used this feature multiple times on other stores without issues. Anyway, John Lewis sent me an email saying the order has been cancelled because I failed security check. I called John Lewis to confirm why this happened and the customer service rep told me that it’s probably because I used paypal but I should either try again or pay at once. I decided to try again, same PayPal and the same thing happened. Now here’s where it got interesting, I randomly decided to go through my LinkedIn and noticed that a staff of John Lewis in their frauds department had gone through my LinkedIn Profile. I didn’t think anything of it and since I needed a new laptop urgently, I decided to just pay at once and order it with my debit card, which I did and approved the payment on my Barclays app. However the same thing happened again; I was rejected a third time. So the fact that a staff from their frauds department went through my page and I still got rejected a third time is giving me signals that they concluded that I must be a fraudster or something perhaps because I’m black African [/b]because how do I get rejected a third time for trying to pay for a service with instant debit from my account that has more than enough funds for the laptop. I’ve spoken to John Lewis about this and about a staff from their fraud unit going through my LinkedIn page and they keep feigning clueless and they said they’ll contact me but they haven’t. [b]My friend thinks I should speak to a lawyer about it but I think that’s a bit intense. Should I just ignore and move on from this or should I report this as consumer discrimination. I’m confused.

Alexia20:
Hello house ,the age on my spouse marriage certificate (church wedding cert) was wrongly captured and I will need to upload the certificate for visa application for spouse dependent visa application. what option does ukvi proffer in such situations in correcting the age to sync with the date of birth on other documents.

Missposh:
I'm currently house hunting for me and my dependants and I found a 2 bedroom apartment a with a rent to buy option for 800pcm. It is unfurnished and i will have to do the flooring in the lounge and 2 bedrooms. The toilet and kitchen has been done already by the landlord. There is oven and hob but no freezer and washing machine.

I'm concerned about how much it will cost me to purchase all the things to make it comfortable and also do the floor which will be in addition to my monthly council tax, utility and other bills.

The attraction for me is that it is the closest house within walking distance that I have seen to my office and possibly the option of owning the apartment 5 years down the line with the option of rent to buy.

My other concern is that the 4 schools I saw close to the house are just good schools and one without rating. In the event that I want my kids to go to outstanding schools, is there a possibility for them being accepted in outstanding schools even if they are far from the house address? Please all the elders in the house, help me put mouth o. Is the house worth taking, what other things should I consider before concluding. I just booked a viewing appointment

Guys[b] I finally got a job in the Uk after trying for 2 years from Nigeria[/b] . To God be the glory.

My office is in Wilmsow Cheshire Manchester. Unfortunately, resumption time is 7:30am-5pm.

We are a family of 3 but i will be coming alone first.

I[b] wonder how, i would juggle it out with my child and school and still resume work by 7:30am when my family moves in with him[/b].

I have asked this question before but i am looking for a place close to wilmslow that is affordable in terms of rent and schools for kids. Please suggest the closest towns i can live in.

Thank you, May God bless you all.

Kudos to the gurus in the house. I really appreciate everyone’s contributions to the success of this thread. Though, am in the UK at the moment undergoing my masters, my dependents did their biometric on the 24th February, 2022 and got a successful feedback on the 02 March, 2022. Though, from the letter attached via mail by UKVI, decision was made 26th February, 2022. Decision was quite fast to my surprise.

To all intending applicants kindly make use of Abuja TLS, they are quite fast.

Success to everyone.

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has relinquished the "stewardship and care" of the club to their charitable foundation.

In a statement released on the Blues' official website, Abramovich said: "During my nearly 20-year ownership of Chelsea FC, I have always viewed my role as a custodian of the Club, whose job it is ensuring that we are as successful as we can be today, as well as build for the future, while also playing a positive role in our communities.

"I have always taken decisions with the Club’s best interest at heart. I remain committed to these values. That is why I am today giving trustees of Chelsea’s charitable Foundation the stewardship and care of Chelsea FC.

"I believe that currently they are in the best position to look after the interests of the Club, players, staff, and fans."
