Thanks Rerin, I have sent a mail to complaint department without no response, since we didn't give a right to appeal or adminstration review but our hope is to re apply last last.Infant I want to submit new application for them tomorrow. Thanks
response is not immediate. I am sure you got a generic email which said response can take up to 20 working days.

You can as well purchase PTA in pounds. PTA doesn't have to be in dollars

Thanks but given that school has resumed and as soon as visa is issued my cousin should be on her way. I don't think 14 days is doable na to go arrange black market be that.
it will take less than as long as all documents are in place and no bvn discrepancies. If they are wasting time send an email to the bank and cc cbn’s official email address. put ur phone no and the bank branch, you will be shocked how the matter will be resolved in less than 24 hours..

How does one ultimately get pounds after collecting USD as PTA? Seniors in the field please respond
same drama...you collect the dollars from the bank… go back to the black market and chnge back to naira. U get more naira, then you buy pounds from the black market. Ultimately you wud get more naira to cover any losses and will get more pounds this way.

OK. so, if I understand you correctly, the PTA concept is all about cheaper FOREX. And has got nothing to do with POE questioning, right?
it is your personal business to buy PTA if you wnat. You might as well go to aboki. There’s nothing that concerns getting forex from cbn and poe

Two were in my name, the dorm account Stanbic was in my husbands name. I was actually having sleepless nights because I printed the statement from the app and it was unstamped and I read so many comments here saying, put all the money in one account, make sure it is stamped at the bank, don’t use mixed denominations etc. However, I knew that the Gov website said electronic statements are okay and they don’t have to be stamped and I knew my statement was genuine, but ultimately I was still scared. At the end of the day , God came thru
electronic statements are very well accepted. As long as it is genuine u dnt need any extra stamp. I dnt understand who is spreading such false info.

@mimi,
I know PTA is personal traveling allowance. But what does this truly mean and how much should be budgeted for this when leaving for UK?
In terms of advantage to you, PTA allows you buy foreign currency at cbn rate of say 415naira to 1 usd as against the black market rate of maybe 580 naira to 1 usd. In this way you avail yourself more foreign currency for cheaper.
So with 580k with aboki you’ll get 1000usd, with pta application and then approval with same 580k you will get 1400usd. Extra 400 usd for same worth of naira.
The FG only allows individuals this opportunity after certain criteria are met such as return ticket, trip outside west africa with more than 5 hours flight time etc. it’s a cost saving mechanism if u have naira to exchange to dollar or pounds for ur travel.

Doesn't mean the bank will because they are only required by law to confirm genuinety of an account statement . Let me leave this topic so it doesn't seem I'm encouraging people to play fast with POF .
they do o. Nigerian bank does. As long as they are asked for balance they tell, if not asked they dnt. Leave matter.
They do not deny request for balnce if asked.
I dnt want to talk more than this.

So sorry about that but make sure you take this up. This is a breach of trust and it’s questionable.
take what up? The money was not deposited. They forged bank statement. He could have halted the process and asked them for his percentage back or insist on them depositing the money. Just chop 10 years like this, it’s so painful.
This was you in December dimeji.. so did you know about this already before because you were asking as below even before your biometrics…

You don't have enough time to process a transit visa. You have to request for refund.
Transit visa takes atleast 2 weeks.
no. Ppl got in 48-72 hrs after submission. As long as u fill d short form, apply and go to lagos or abuja in time. To be on safe side, yes give extra time but its very doable

I complained yesterday, that I misplaced my passport/visa last two days ago, TLS contact called me the same yesterday evening to come and collect my passport, someone brought it to them.
Thank God for everything
Please I need a site to book for my day 2 and day 8 testing kits in Birmingham, someone should help me out is very urgent.
Thank you
you are so lucky. If the person dropped their contact num, reach out to them and expressly say thank you for their goodwill to have even taken it back to tls. I have misplaced passport before.. was a horrible nightmare, worse still u tht just picked up visa… this is great for u.
check the student thread. Saw 5 pounds day 2 test. It is lateral flow and for fully vaccinated. So confirm from gov.uk if urs needs to be pcr or lateral and then chk vivovlinic link they posted.
