Well, I sympathize with you guys because most of you probably bought things you didn't really need that much, all because of the low rate. But I like being realistic, I stay with what works, not what I FEEL should work.

Saying you called GT customer care can't take you anywhere since GT didn't send you any mail with regard to the new rate you are talking about. If you are close to bankers you will understand that financial transactions are not authorized by oral instruction. You can tell your subordinate to do a transaction and he will decline requesting a mail to that effect. So, if you have a recent mail from GT stating the new rate, we can start from there.

Again, if the rate is 299, there is no rule that says you must be debited 299 at once. They can choose to debit you 199 first then 100 later. You only have a case against inconvenience of the system not legality of the system.

Lets not get too emotional about this and start throwing insults. I am just trying to make Ben Bruce #commonsense.

Phony200:
The funds you were debited initially came from your account. Are you telling me that if your card was not restricted to a daily/monthly limit, you would have gone on to spend $10,000 just because the rate was showing ₦199? The ATM withdrawal comparison is the same. If you have ₦5,000 in your account and go ahead to withdraw ₦5000 and you notice your balance is still ₦5,000, then you try another 5k and it goes, then 20k and it goes through again, will you complain when you find your account in -₦30,000 when the error is rectified?

Say you go to your neighbourhood grocery store and got charged lower than your purchase amount on Monday, and then you go back on tuesday and try to check out and you notice you were debited the total of Tuesday's shopping and the difference from the computer error on Monday, would you think you have grounds for a fraud argument because according to you, since they had a maintenance issue, they have to bear the loss and you have to bear the "miraculous provision offering"? No Ma'am, I disagree.

The analogy is sound. Denial is futile.

ptoall1000:

bellong:
Your age is on the border, if you cross it before being invited, it will reduce to 25points.

Your first step now is to get your assessment done with ACS. Once you get a positive assessment, proceed to fill an expression of interest on Border Force's website and wait till you are invited to apply for PR

That is all you need. No other procedure needed. Get through ACS first, then you are you about 70% done.

emeka55: I certified all my documents at ikeja high court. I have a customer there who just takes them to notary public and certifies them for me. It could cost up to 1000 naira. If u are applying through uni-assist, u don't have to keep certifying documents. Just certify the first set and send them (ur certificates and transcript) and even if u want to apply to 100 schools thru them, u don't have to certify anything again since they already have ur documents in their archive. All u need to send is the school's application form and motivation letter. Nipost collected abt 300-800 naira for each school package and took abt 2 weeks to deliver my documents. When u track it online, it may be saying "item in bag" don't mind dem, e fit don reach since.

emeka55: Make una no vex biko, it's just my nature to keep things till I accomplish them. Even my family never know say I don get the visa.
My interview experience was good. The fair igbo man at the gate almost spoilt my day as he was nagging. Finally I entered and went straight to reception. The dark lady there was helpful as she showed me how to properly arrange my documents even though she almost lost patience.
I already met the old lady at the reception while I was talking to the receptionist. Immediately the old lady saw me again, she just started shouting for no reason and I noticed she wanted to smile but she was forming strict.
The interview questions were the usual:
Why I chose Germany
why I chose my course
If my course can be studied in Nigeria
What I know about Germany and my school
What I intend to do after studying
If I made any attempt to learn german, (I said no)
Why I don't have my birth certificate: (I told her I couldn't find it and I was born before NPC was established so I couldn't have provided NPC and that was why I came with an Age Declaration)
Then means of finance...etc....

Abeg I don tire to type. After everything, I told her "Have a nice day" she said "I don't need ur prayer omo naija".
Just have ur documents complete and make the right photocopies before u get there. Also arrange them properly in 3 sets. When u are asked a question, be sure of what u say and don't miss words. Don't give 2 different answers to a question. Even if u are not sure of the question asked, just say something reasonable cos even the V.O sef may not know the right answer. If u keep quiet or bite ur tongue she'll know u are saying rubbish.
Also pls and pls, if u don't have eye problem, don't wear glass. Don't make them question ur identity and make sure u convince them u will return after ur studies. I got my visa after a week and some days.
I am a banker and even with my busy schedule, I try to stay in touch. Even if I get to Germany, I'll always find time to contribute my quota to the thread as long as I have internet cos I learned a lot here. I am grateful to everyone here, u guys are wonderful

I wish u guys goodluck.
My 2 spoons....
