Good evening everyone, pls i need an urgent assistance regarding my UKVI account. I have be trying to create a UKVI account, unfortunately when i get to the security code being sent to my number i don't get it until the time runs out. What could be the issue and how do i go about resolving it before i take off?

Secondly, do i need a transit visa for Rwandair from Lagos to London, to layover at Kigali?
1. Use the email option..the sending of code to mobile phone number doesn't work for me.

2. I don't think you'll need a transit visa

Good morning everyone.
Please this question is directed to those in the UK 🙏.
I was about sending accommodation fees to a landlord in the UK, but my bank requires his IBAN number which the landlord said he doesn't have or rather, they don't use it in the UK. Now, I'm skeptical of sending him the money through a naira account he wants to give me for the payment.
I told him that I'm ready to pay for 2-3 months rent upfront when I arrive. He didn't agree at first but just today, he said no problem on my request.
I have never met him before and I wanted to ask those already living in the UK if they believe or think this is real or am I falling into the wrong hands?
Please someone knowledgeable with such should kindly assist me to understand this situation and if I have nothing to worry about.

Thanks ✌️
Why not stay in a hotel for a day or two before paying for the accommodation?

Have you viewed the accomodation?

Is it suitable for you?

Finally, i got the visa application successful mail.

Thanks to everyone for your valuable advice and support. Special special thanks to these guys@Cashmadam, @giselle237@jmoore. You lot are amazing.

Pls does anyone have an idea of when its likely to hear/read from vfs regarding my passport?

I also tried to create a UKVI account to check my evisa to no avail. SMS Security code not dropping. What could be the problem?
I've been waiting for VFS since Wednesday, I wonder when they call for collection.

About the ukvi account, I think you have that already when you applied for the visa?

I see a lot of people looking through the forum regarding UK visas.

They are not particularly difficult to get if you approach it in the right way.

I have a lot experience in UK visas, so maybe I can help, let me know.
I received my UK student visa today but my dependent hasn't gotten her decision yet.

We did biometrics same date July 17th.
Should I be worried?

Good afternoon house ! Please I will appreciate your response! I applied for mres at university of Gloucestershire for September intake but with the look of things , no CAS has been issued and also I checked the updated schools with sponsorship at ukvi website , the university name is not included . Does it mean the government has redrawn their license to sponsor student ? Note have paid my tuition deposit, thanks!
Please kindly share updates
Have you received your CAS from Gloucestershire now, if yes, how long does it take?

Hello everyone,

Thanks for the good job here, pls did anyone have an issue with globus bank issuing a reference letter, the bank has been delaying me for the past two weeks as that is the only document left to fully complete my CAS shield.

If they had told me it's impossible, I could have transferred out my money to other banks, but they kept posting me day after day. Pls any idea about what I can do
Have you tried sending to their official email.
What do you need the reference letter for? I think your bank statement is enough for the CAS shield
