Rice, and Garri are cheap there, so don't buy those. Buy any other dry foodstuff that doesn't smell too much. If you carry iru or stock fish, seal it very very well. It must not smell

ColdNight:

TLS IKEJA have the laziest employees. Went there and saw the new box of passports that they got today. These people refused to scan it as received. So it was still showing on their system that the passport has not returned. But it was right there looking at us.
A lot of people that got "application moved to vac" this morning were there but they just kept saying your passport has not arrived. Oya abeg scan the new passports that just came, they no gree

Not yet.

Dec 20 . Ikeja TLS. Application transferred back to VAC at 8am.

So one person is like 200? Which dates abeg.

Iferewaju:
Thanks boss..
The cost of the British airways flight is like 800k for a family of four directly to Newcastle.
I only wanted to know if anybody has gotten visa refusal without getting nsf mails.

Pls was it to carry an extra 23kg bag or you can divide the extra 23kg btw the 2 allowed luggages?

cutelekush01:
My friend used Qatar last week, he is fully vaccinated and he didn’t do pre departure test.
However if you are less than 30, you can register on there site for students membership card and you will be given additional 23kg extra.

I didn't call them. I just went straight to their office after I got a message that my passport had been moved back to TLS because I knew they wouldn't deliver to me that day and I needed to travel that night. I waited for about 2 hrs and the rider that picked up from TLS came in and I got my passport

bollarcash:
Please did you call them or it was the other way round that your passport is with them? And how far was your location from your VAC?

I've picked up at DHL sha because I couldn't wait for them to bring it to me but I think they close by 6. So she might just wait till Monday

LuchiBianca:
Pick up is at TLS though. You can only go to DHL if they come for delivery and you were absent.

Book on hold. Dont pay.

tolajay:
Greetings, house.

Is it advisable to book a flight ticket before my visa/passport arrive?

Context: I have a resumption date of 1 Feb with NHS. Visa application has moved to VAC from DMC today. So I'm expecting the collectiom email next week.

But I'll like to move fast on flight booking to save cost. What do you advise?

You MUST OO

dapreal:
Is it advisable to declare all travel ban and visa refusal when filling application form.

If you are fully vaccinated, you don't need to do any covid test befor leaving. Just carry proof of your vaccination with you to the airport. You only need to pay for the day 2 lateral test

tochieee:
Goodevening all

Please I am fully vaccinated and I hope to leave next week Thursday

After the covid test, do I also need to pay for day 2 and day 8
Please what is the amount?

Please help a worried sister

Sorry it’s coming late. Want to thank everyone here on this thread. The info’s here have been super helpful. I also wish those that haven’t received good luck.

Same for my Ikeja TLS people too but for Dec 20th. Decision has been made but nothing from TLS. Maybe people need to start going to their office to ask whatsup

Jayjord19:
Anyone got email for collection TLS Ikeja Dec 17th yet?
Called on Friday last week and was told a decision has been made, still tracking won't move from Application Received By DMC to Application Transferred To VAC

No you get free hotel and a free meal. But make sure you read the terms on your ticket before paying o. There's one particular economy savings package that they won't give you hotel, you will sleep in airport.

Oyesquare10:
Please will I be the one to pay for my hotel accomodation in Cairo if I fly Egyptair or it's included in flight ticket?

My friend had 3 UK visa refusals.

Still got into Coventry to study engineering

saintchuks9:
Good morning guys!
Please I want to ask as I tried to appeal to my school about the decision on not awarding me my CAS and they are saying that they operate a strict policy where by anybody that has been denied visa before from other country or US that the chances of the person getting visa in UK is slim and I want to know how true this is, if anybody knows anybody that had visa refusals and was still able to get UK and also which school did the person apply to.
Am so sad right now and confused.thanks for the help

You got the visa abi?

ibk5891:
17th Dec, ikeja.

The app. The flights are usually slightly cheaper on the app. But if your date is too close, the ticket could be expensive

Afmaag123:
How did you book qatar cos its quite costly on their site. About 2k usd. Did you book via wakanow?

Right now, Qatar, for cost and quality, they even served me jollof and ewagoyin once. The only problem is the length of the flight.
Turkish is also ok for cost. Quality is not as good as Qatar tho. But it's ok
Egypt air is also good for cost, your baggage can loss for 5 days sha and they won't compensate you, but if your flight is extra long and overnight, they will put you in their airport hotel.
Ethiopian is very good. But length of flight is tooo long.
Same for Kenyan.

If you have someone that will give you cash. Virgin is the best. BA is also great but their Nigerian workers at the airport love bribe

Afmaag123:
So which is better and cost effective.

They are cheap but dem too dey cancel flight. And before you collect money back na war. They will force you to use the money to book another flight that you don't need

Afmaag123:
All the airlines seems expensive.
Please has anyone used royal Air Mac.
It's seems to me like the cheapest.

Abuja is just the best abeg

em7even:
17th December - Abuja TLS.

20th has collected??

Iferewaju:
Yes… God will Favour you.
But I think you should just relax a bit. They just started dealing with those on 20th

I think you should wait till tomorrow so that you will have a concrete reason. It's just one more day
Is this TLS Ikeja?

FrankFrenzy:
Good evening
I sent a paid mail and just received this response now, biometrics was done on the 20th and therefore will be 15 days tomorrow.
Should I reply with the required details tomorrow or I should wait till when it’s past 15days as contained on the mail?

Yes, you can. But I was advicing you to use train because that's what I used personally. So I can vouch for myself

BrunoMads:
Lol I can imagine, so even if I'm unvaccinated I can still use the bus yea?
