In all honesty, there's no way my mum would have 8M after sorting out everything. No way!!! The Irish visa process though..
Yeah, the process it though but it’s a lovely country.
I did a lot of research about Ireland, it’s an amazing place to study and live in

5M+ after full payment of school fees wasn't enough? Shey I will not defer my admission laidis.. Why is their process so annoying ffshuh
I’m not trying to discourage you bro, I’m only sharing my experience maybe it might help you.
Just make sure your sponsor has up to 8M, I’m sure you won’t have any problem with that. And make sure you are related to your sponsor( I mean same surname).
If you got your birth certificate recently make sure you state the reason why you are not using the one they issued at the time of birth in your application letter.

Wow, the money was enough now huh huh huh
How much do you think they’d expect one to have?
They expected each sponsor to have at least 8M in their account, a friend of mine that got her visa; her sponsor has 8m.
I was shocked to get a refusal because after using 2 sponsors, they still included their property documents which worth even more than what they have in their account, which is enough for a sponsor to have.
I’m applying to UK that has less stress, It’s not a good thing to have refusal. It broke my heart

Guyz. Pls advice me on what to do

My visa application was refused last year so I applied for a refund in early January through my agent. Up till now I'm yet to receive my refund. The school keeps saying the refund is been processed and my agent keep telling me to be patient. The owners of the fund have been asking too many question I can't answer. It like I've received and spent the money.

Abeg is this delay normal.
It’s normal, I also got a refusal in February and I applied for a refund, Griffith college processed the payment in April. Although I’m still having an issue with the money because Access is trying to cheat me with the exchange rate.
I hope you requested your refund with a domiciliary account to avoid this kind of issue

Our people sha, they lose their minds at the sound of money. Let the bank know you intend to pursue this and willing to go high and above. Let them know you have been keeping records as well. Give them a chance to revisit this and do the right thing and if they dont, please feel free to take it up.

From your post, they defrauded you of over #500,000... That's even enough for you to file a case.

This is glaringly a case of fraud.

My Advise to you...


Just copy and forward this your same post to their customer service mail and CC their Head of Operations, CBN and Consumer Protection.

You shouldn't allow them rip you off please
I notified the customer protection on the 7th of May and I was asked to make my complaint via their mobile app. I submitted my complaint on the 13th and I haven’t gotten a response up till now, and their number is not reachable

From the last conversation we had last night which lasted for 49 minutes, I was told there’s no remedy and all they can do is to apologize.
They won’t be able to pay at the expected rate because the did has been done and there’s no reversal

I got a tuition fee refund from my school in Ireland, the money was paid into my account about 6weeks ago.
Initially when I contacted my bank and inform them about it, they denied they haven’t received the fund, I have to contact my school and and they sent me a telex copy to show when they sent the money and when my bank received the money. Access bank admitted they’ve received the fund after I presented my evidence and show the mail I got from my school. I was told they will process the payment as soon as possible but to my surprise I got a call from Access bank saying if they should credit my account at the rate of #355 naira per euro ( omg euros o not even dollars) I rejected the offer and told them it’s absurd and I see it as wickedness for them to make me such an offer, they immediately apologized and promised to pay me at the standard rate. I immediately put another call to them instantly to know if it was someone in charge of release the funds trying to play smart on me, i asked the customer service that what is the current rate of euro to naira as of that daily, I was told it’s 426 that if I’m fortunate to receive an euro payment that day it will be on that rate. ( I placed the call on recordings)
That same day I made another call to the customer care I was told the same thing.
I later went to one of the branch in Ibadan few days after and I explained everything to them, I also told them about the negotiations one of them was trying to make with me on phone, the ibadan branch sent the headquarters a mail to do follow up and resolve the issue. I was later told that opening a domiciliary account is advised so that the bank can credit my euro dom account then I can do my exchange elsewhere, I instantly opened a domiciliary account the next day and the bank called and forwarded my details to them so they can credit my euro account and I left the bank that day.
3 days later I got an alert in my naira account and my tuition was paid at a ridiculous rate of #378 per euro, I was shock and surprised that access bank could trade their integrity for just the 500k naira gain they want to see on me after I was asked to open a domiciliary account yet you refused to credit it because they wanted to be dubious. I instantly went to the bank that day and the branch was even surprised they credit my naira account instead of the domiciliary account.
The customer service called me on 16th of May to explained what happened, they said I was supposed to be paid at the rate of 388 but unfortunately the payment was paid at the rate of 378 and there’s nothing they can do about it anymore. It is also my right for them to put a call to me before they made such payment into my account in which they didn’t do. They only apologized for not calling. And they said I just had to let it go.
I made them to understand that when I paid my tuition fee the bank charged me at their card rate which was 398 but now they don’t want to pay me at the normal rate which is 426 but claiming to pay me at cbn rate, when I checked the CBN website on their spreadsheet it was 391 on the date they credited my account. Why will a bank choose to pay their customer on just a random rate without any amendments.

TravelRe: Adventure In Ireland by Lincon11(m): 1:55pm On May 17, 2020
Chiggsglover:
I have read lots of amazing stories and experiences from the adventures of Nigerians in various part of the world. I usually feel somehow writing mine but decided I have to do it because it achieves various purposes like it makes Nigerians get a grip of the country and realities in the country. In my school, DBS, when you're inside, you'll think you're in India. Due to the fact that they spread the news about potential countries that is suitabe for migration, clear the path for those coming by suggesting suitable courses so they can easily get job. There's a reason the indians are dominating the workplace in Canada.

In my class, we're just three Nigerians, thirty Indians in a course that has potential. You need to see how these guys cooperate, I get overwhelmed.
The Nigerians in my class, I tried to be open to them, I got so irritated by their response that I feel so great when I heard school has been locked down by the virus.
When it got to Group assignment, they lumped me and them in one group. The only indian in my group ran away to another group of Indians.
The reality in my class is just how Nigeria is. We need to cooperate more and help others. In my workplace, two Nigerian guys are there, igbos like me, den do anyhow, I left them and na one Kenya guy wey don stay for this country show me the way. The other Africans in the place don sabi say you need to watch one another back and cooperate.
The goal of this thread is to simply draw your attention and FOCUS to Ireland. Leave US, dont apply to that country directly, even Canada sef, Start looking at Europe, it's easier to enter here than those countries.
From Europe you can branch to any country of your choosing.
If you can learn the German language, Germany is a great country. The indians don dey rush PhD there. You do a research one and get €1000 monthly plus free tuition. Indians will see this kind opportunity and broadcast it to their people. We will see such and only tell immediate family members.

Blacks are so few here. The indians are Many, you wont know because their skin is light, they have straight hair and they simply blend in. I have to look at them closely or from the garlic spice, I instantly know they're the one.
The more of our people we have here, the better for us, that's what people dont know. The reason you enjoy interacting easily with Americans socially is the work of our Brothers. Over the years, they've had various blend of the black race generation by generation.
The Irish community are not used to us. Den no born you well to apply for governorship post or marry their woman. That one na another matter, it's best to avoid them.

I've said so much. All those Agencies that will be posting Canada 2020, USA visa!!!!!! Up and down, RUN

You'll carry refusal letter like Trophy.
Average Nigerians here in this country, den don carry at least one Denied from either Canada or USA.
It's like the period when the Unilag craze was there, secondary teachers caused this, they made people feel like Life will end if you dont go to unilag. I knew someone applied seven times, that's seven years gone!

Its about the course you read and the grade, Not the school.
You're better off studying in the North, lower cost of living, less strike, then you come out, apply abroad, life continues.

When I was applying, I was almost pushed to start chasing big school where I will pay huge school fees and go broke. I knew a friend that was chasing big name, he was denied admission due to the fact that the school is competitive. But sense came o, let's leave ratings alone, as long as the school and the course is accredited. Study ya thing and come out. It's only Havard and oxford, if you get the grade and you know that the way is clear, you can push it if you're an Einstein. Not being an einstein like me, doesnt mean you're a failure.

Lemme drop my pen here.
Please I will like to ask questions from anyone that got refusal from Ireland or any European countries and got a tuition refund into their account.
Access bank is trying to cheat with the exchange rate, knowing fully well that the value of naira has fallen against euro

@pradit You in Dublin ??
Please do you have any idea about Eurobond and how it works?
Will I have full access to the money when I get to Ireland so I can send it back home ?
Thanks

Yes, Germany has a Tuition-free policy, however semester charge applies. Excluding the fact that you need £9000 in a German Blocked account- Not to talk about the £3000 + for pre-sessional language classes.

This is a thread to make people more aware of the benefits of studying in IRELAND as compared to the UK.

I'll be discussing more about the 2 years work permit available to graduates of Masters program and opportunity for Permanent settlement in Future posts.

Cheers
Please I will like to ask about Eurobond, by agent said I can use Eurobond for my visa appeal since there was a section that called my attention to insufficient funds.
The question is, will I have full access to the money in my Eurobond account so I can send it back home?
