Yes, I can see my items (the children's clothes from Walmart). But I've sent you 2 emails since the past 2 days, to get an update on my order, and no reply. How far nah? Will I get my items anytime soon?

balogunsam:
@E.A...payment received and all laura mercier orders placed. ELF and rest pending and will be updated as placed

@ij...walmart items in transit.

balogunsam:
At the moment, w handle both purchase and shipping.

Does that mean I can't order by myself and then, have you ship down for me? Just the shipping.
If so, how do you handle purchases outside Amazon and ebay. I want to get some books from abebooks.com

Please, with a foreign account, how can I then cash out my payments? Will it not be invalidated by my transferring my payments to my Nigerian bank account? I'm interested, but this is my only constraint.

I have a 3-year old German Upwork account which has been verified for ID and Tax for sale.

With this account, prospective clients will have confidence to award projects/offers to you, instead of Nigeria Upwork accounts.

Contact me if you are interested in earning cool dollars with it.

Price: N5000

I have an account with upwork that is yet to be approved.It's a Nigerian account. I've tried about 3 times to get it approved but I keep getting the message that they have no more need for freelancers with my skills. My niche is research and academic writing, with emphasis on medical and health related topics.
Can you help me get it approved? How can I contact you?

emmdam:
Yes, I can help to set up an approved Upwork profile for transcription and proofreading for a token fee as my service entails more benefits. Yes, of course...Nigerian account do well on Upwork as most clients are majorly concerned with doing their job well. Though some clients will opt for native English speakers for jobs like proofreading tasks but as you have more positive reviews, your reputation increases on Nigerian account for such tasks.

You are the man! Thanks!

Hi good day, Some people don't care about details they just let prize of the unit do the choosing for them, while others look at the whole picture. That said, I would do a comparison for you on the Butterfly JH8190, Heavy duty Singer 4423 machine and Brother XM2701 (all three are in same category but offer different features) then you can make your choice on what you want. Will quote you when done.

Please,I need info on this Butterfly JH 8190 machine. I'm a beginner, and I was advised to buy that machine.

Do you stock it? Is it a good choice for a beginner, or would you suggest something better? And is it manual/electric or is it just manual?

In fact, please, if you can give me info on the machine and where to buy it, I would really be grateful.

Is Upwork still accepting freelancers?

Do you handle shipping alone? I have some items of clothing that I'm trying to order from Amazon. I do not have a US address, I want to know if I can place the order and then have you deliver it to me in owerri after I've paid for the cost of shipping.

I know this post is old, but I really want to know about the Cotonou angle. Can you tell me more please? Thanks.

Curdlebug:
why not source for it in Nigeria markets?.

I've tried severally. In stores and online. I bought it in the US and it turns out its not popular here in Nigeria so they dont stock it. The common ones here are tommie tippie and Avent, which wont work with my breast pump or bottles.

Please, anyone getting some items from amazon soon, like this week? If so, please can someone help me add 1 item to their order. Its an add-on item and I cant buy it alone. besides it's not economical for me to ship only one item down to Nigeria, and I don't need any other items for now.

Anyone who is buying from amazon this week, pls contact me so we can do business, it's kind of urgent for me.
Thanks.

the link for the item is:
http://www.amazon.com/Medela-Breastmilk-Bottle-Spare-Parts/dp/B002VLGD2A?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

Ecobank rate as at this moment: N397 to 1 USD. Just FYI.

Please you guys should help a sister. Does ecobank allow one to make transactions of up to 800USD at a go? And what is their rate? This is urgent please!

Please who knows ecobank and access rate for 2day?

Please what is the daily/weekly limit for USD transactions with stanbic and gtbank?

Meanwhile, Access says their limit is 3000 weekly. Does that mean that I can make up to 1000usd transaction at a go provided I don't exceed 3000 weekly?

Please do you have funds available now? I need to make a payment of 770usd.

stevolinkon40:

Oh thank God! Please how can I get Mr Ndidi's number, I need some clarification from him.

Besides, where are the logistics guys, I will need my consignment to be picked up and sent to me in umuahia, who offers such services?

Please, stanbic is no longer 260 o! I just got an alert of 2800 for a transaction of USD 10, meaning it's now 280 to a dollar.
Just FYI.

Please what is stanbic's dollar rate currently?

Okay boss, got One also. To Abj

Oga, please help me with instructions for first-timers on how to successfully inform chinox about a shipment coming his way and to ask for an invoice. I remember you giving someone that info sometime ago, but I can't seem to find it now. I know the address, that's not my problem, my issue is, after my order has shipped on its way to him, how to notify him to consolidate and give me an invoice.
Thanks.

All youwin3 awardee still expecting second tranche payment should shut up. Most of you are not ashamed, complaining your businesses is failing. Spoilt pampered business owner. If you can not run your business profitably with your first tranche payment, why do you deserve the second tranche payment. You know jonathan is no longer in power to come to your aid. Why don't you print your statement of account and discuss with the bank you have a relationship with. Except if your business has not been a making small profit, bank will turn down an existing business.
For your info, I started my manufacturing business with just 2 million loan from my bank manager to start my business. And the business has produce turnover of 70,000,000 naira per year and net profit of 10,000,000 naira in first year. How do I achieve that? Because it was bank loan I used as start up capital. I knew if I default, I automatically have a bad credit rating by banks in future. That makes serious and maximise the money.
Wake up and smell the coffee. Youwin is over and look for other ways to save your business if you are truly passionate about it. And stop lamenting like a spoilt child.

Wow! Congratulations on your higher intelligence. I'm not a beneficiary of youwin 3, but I found your post most condescending. So far from what I've seen, this forum has been about people rubbing minds and helping and mentoring others, not to tell people off in such a rude manner. If you want to be helpful, be helpful, offer advice, offer yourself as a consultant, whatever, but don't call people spoilt children for asking for something that they should have got by now. Please. If you had a business plan for 10million naira and you received 2 million from your bank and a deadline to meet up with markers set for your original 10million plan, do you really think you would not have run into crisis shortly after?

Its called National Youth Service Corps and the emphasis is on service. While I understand the angst of medical personnel, I wonder if they think they are more special than other professions who are receiving 5k.

In my time they paid doctors more but only as incentives to work in remote areas where they are needed.

To be honest, no. It's not an incentive, it is their pay. You probably didn't get to know details. Doctors, Pharmacists, Med Lab scientists are on a salary structure from the time they graduate, when they do the mandatory 1yr internship: conmess for doctors, conhess for others. They are not on the regular civil service salary structure, theirs is peculiar. The pay is structured : there is a basic salary, which every corper gets, then they get paid call duty allowance, because when others work and go home, they are on duty. They get a hazard allowance cos of the risk of infection and stuff (remember Adadevoh?). Etc etc. It's mandated by law, and even in private practice the pay is broken down like this as well.

Now, I'm looking at 15k. Is that supposed to be call allowance, or basic, or... what exactly, it has to be specified. What most people do, is to remove or slash the basic, and keep the allowances as per the salary structure. The emollument is stated by law and enshrined in the public service Gazette or whatever it is called.

Well, it's up to the corpers involved Sha, but I don't know any health worker who does not consider nysc a demotion after the one yr internship. I wouldn't stay, if it was me. I remember when I served in 04, and I was placed on the wrong salary scale in nasarawa state then. I out rightly refused it. I went to the directorate in Abuja, got a copy of the Gazette, and wrote the management, telling them to correct my placement or officially reject me so I could seek reposting. It was finally rectified after 2months and I got my arrears, though I was branded a greedy igbo girl. Even in 04,my call duty allowance as a Pharmacist was more than the 15k self.

My point is this: if someone is entitled to something by law, let them have it. It's not wrong for someone to ask for what is due to them. If there is going to be a downward review, I don't expect it to go beyond 100, cos I don't see where and where they will slash the pay from, unless the state is saying that they will only pay hazard allowance only, no call, no basic, nothing else. Let them explain details to the corpers involved and release those who don't want to stay, to go and look for their destiny elsewhere.

Anyways, not my monkey, not my circus. To each his own.
