TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by oviedike: 3:45pm On Aug 28, 2018
Scottiemi:
When did you call ma, and was it up to ten working days before you got a response? Because I just called now and was told the process will be escalated but 15 working days
So I applied for her on the 27th of July. My first call to UKVI was on the 17th of August. They escalated on the 21st, gave me a new reference number and said I should wait for 10 to 15 working days for a response directly from UK home office. I refused to wait because her holiday was almost ruined. I called them almost everyday until they got tired of me. It got to a point where they said it was out of their hands. Also kept going to Tlscontact office Ikeja. By GOD's grace the status changed on their website to Decision Made just yesterday and I got the email last night. Picked it up this morning. It has never been this bad as we've been renewing for many years. But in all, I thank GOD!

Tried calling once and the connection wasn't clear. So we sent mails, even applied for a withdrawal and nothing yet. They are so disorganized. Please can I get the number you called. Thank you
You have to call UKVI. Ask them for the current status then tell them to escalate.

No update yet, was discouraged from contacting them because everyone that have contacted them so far are still waiting so I guess it is another money making venture for them
My daughter's own visa renewal application just changed to decision made after staying on awaiting decision for over 3 weeks. Next step is ready for collection. You may want to track yours. Does anyone know how many days from decision made to ready for collection?

Did you track your at tlscontact website, what is the current status there.
TravelRe: Photos Of The New Aircraft Launched By Air Peace As Nigerian Pilots Make History by oviedike: 11:46am On Aug 26, 2018
Airpeace has tried. But it still remains a shame that the industry remains mediocre. In 2018 we are celebrating a 16year old 3rd hand airplane that Emirates Airline has used so much and feel it no longer fit for their fleet. Not that Airpeace could afford to buy it, they leased it. If they mess up on their return, the real owners (FV Aircraft Leasing) will pick it up immediately. Smaller African countries have companies that own brand new A380s in their fleet. We are here celebrating mediocrity. Shame!

Family visa, I already have a visa, applied for my son
Hello, do you have any updates about your situation, I also applied for my daughter on the same 27th. Same problem. I've contacted UKVI by phone and email. They said a decision was made 2 Fridays ago and I should have received the passport long ago. They've escalated to Home office. They say I'll get a response in 10 working days. Just waiting

Always has to be an Edo guy. Anyway you clearly married a gutter girl with no self esteem, No father and family. That's why you this animal can beat her everyday and get away with it. Rubbish! I wait for the man to touch my daughter and I hear. We die together that same day.

ogtavia:
does spectranet/ntel have sim cards? If they do, how can I get them please?I currently use MTN 4g mifi but its very expensive and the data doesn't last at all. Is it advisable to unlock the mtn mifi and use multiple sim cards with it? Kindly reply. Thank you.
Just walk into any Ntel or spectranet office and buy their SIM with a plan.

This is MTN 4g Mifi. It unlocled will only support MTN and Ntel bands. That's why I suggested Nokia 2 that supports all 4g bands.

Huawei E5573s-320:

– FDD Band 1/3/5/7/8/20 (800/850/900/1800/2100/2600MHz)
PoliticsRe: Obasanjo: "Buhari’s Refusal To Sign African Trade Treaty Disappointing" by oviedike:
seunjungle1:
How can that affect the unemployment rate at alarming...positive or negative?
Negetaive in the short term. It ideally should be positive but we aren't ready for this yet because of our high cost of production (Power, Security , corruption etc). Once he signs this, all the remaining multinationals (PZ, Cadbury, Nestlé, Guiness etc) would pull out of Nigeria as fast as possible.Why produce here when you can from Kenya and export to Nigeria tax free. Millions of top paying quality jobs would be lost within 6 months. Then we'll be completely import dependent. Nigeria is attractive to all those countries because of our population. Possitive in the long term because we'll be forced to sit up and get our acts together to compete with other African countries.

Thanks! I'm glad you found my post insightful.
I'm in lekki, Lagos. Also tested the networks in Maitama, Abuja
PhonesRe: Best Internet Plan For Heavy Users by oviedike:
No Nigerian network is perfect. They all have their good and bad days, reliable ones are expensive. To get the best, you have to have them all and be able to switch at any point. My advice is to get an "ashawo" phone. One that can work with any Nigerian 4g network. I use Nokia 2. Get all their 4g Sims. Spectranet, Ntel, Swift, Smile, Glo etc. Pay for their smallest 4g data subscription for testing. Anyone that works well for you.... Enjoy!

So far, below has been my experience and ratings.

Top Choice = Ntel = unreliable but fastest and cheapest @ N3,700/Week for truely Unlimited plan.

Spectranet= Reliable 12,500 40gb Truely Unlimited from 1am-7pm. So if you can stay awake you can do much downloads. Plus they give double data usually at the end of the month if you subscibe for some plans.

MTN 4g Expensive but very reliable. Also very mobile. You can change locations as you please and still get good speed.

Glo 4g was great at some point. 5k for 30gb was my go to plan. It got oversubscribed and super slow. They've cut it to 5k for 15gb. It's now fast but expensive. No longer worth it.

All the rest are either too expensive, unreliable or outright fraudulent ie (FUP fake unlimited plan �)
PhonesRe: Please Recommend Good Phone For Me With Durable Battery Between 27 To 30K by oviedike: 10:41am On Feb 23, 2018
I'm shocked no one is recommending the newly launched Nokia 2 at N30,000.

5.0 inches Corning Gorilla Glass 3

Running Stock Android Nougat 7.1.1. Upgradable to Oreo 8.0

4,100mah battery

8 GB expandable to 128GB dedicated SD slot 1 GB RAM (stock android OS compensates for speed) It's not the fastest phone ever but can easily be tuned to be nippy without rooting.



LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800), 28(700), 38(2600), 40(2300

Works well with all our 4g networks. MTN, Etisalat, Glo, Ntel, Spectranet, Smile, swift etc

It's very rare to find a phone that supports all our 4g networks especially Glo 4g 28(700)

So instead of buying these networks router or mifi that are tied to 1 band or even the Huawei mifi that we unlock but only has few bands. I uses this phone. Great experience so far.

GOD please give me good health let me see which idiot would would put his hands on my daughter that I carried as a baby, paid school fees from nursery to University. For almost 20 years of marriage not once have I dreamt of touching my wife. Not once has my daughter seen me even raise my voice to her mother talkless of beating her then one fool would come and try himself. Anyway.....

Shame on all of you talking against Soyinka. It has to take an old man to stand up and talk for us. We have become so weak. What has he said thats wrong? That she took siege of PH for almost 2 weeks? Didn't you see what happened when she blocked Lagos for a day? For 2 weeks in PH? The Gov couldn't move? Then imagine regular citizens. Just not fair! When something is wrong we should unite and say THIS IS WRONG!!!!!!!
PoliticsRe: Pictures Of Murtala Mohammed International Terminal by oviedike: 4:24pm On Jul 06, 2013
Ok. A for effort. But I think we should do much better than this. Google dubai airport 15 years ago and for dubai airport now. We have far more natural resources than the UAE and more population (which should be an advantage if harnessed).
What we lack which they have is LEADERSHIP. For those of us who've been there, have you had conversations with regular citizens e.g cab drivers? They talk about their leaders with so much respect, adoration, gratitude etc. The highest selling portrait or pics in dubai is of their leaders. Its everywhere. Peoples homes, in taxis, in hotels in malls, on skyscrapers etc even body tatoos. They can attack you if you speak bad of their leaders. They love them to death and who can blame them. I've been fortunate to travel to most part of the world. All the top cities. But up till now no one trips me like dubai because of the pace the development came. You know how they say rome wasn't built in a day? Well... dubai most certainly was. Finally, dubai gives me hope that one day God will have mercy on us and give us good leadership and nigeria can be rebuilt even if not 1 day... 20years will do.
