Viruses: YES. Your insurance premium goes UP (not down) when you move from Provisional to Full Licence. The rations makes a lot of sense. As a provisional licence holder, you were less at risk of accidents. As a new full licence holder, the chances of accident becomes higher. 3 Likes |

BorisJohnson: This is funny. Should it be that those with provisional would have high chances of accident rather than those with full licence who are thought to be a pro. Or am I missing something ni |

slimanyd:This is why: A provisional licence enables you to drive everywhere, except on motorways, as long as you're supervised by a suitable person.. . Driving without supervision could also invalidate any insurance and you could end up with extra points on your provisional licence for this, potentially resulting in a driving ban. With a full license, you can do what you want, hence higher premium. 3 Likes |

Viruses:I started with intl, forgot to update to full until it was 2 weeks to renewal. My quoted price went down though a few things also changed like my address and a slight reduction in mileage. But like ppl have said, the quotes I got from other providers were much higher than the ones I got last year when applying with provisional. Modified...I started with Intl not provisional. 2 Likes |

tushqueen: Let me tell you what is going to happen; - They will raise a dispute and appoint an independent adjudicator - You will provide all your evidence with photos and so much shalaye - The idiotic adjudicator will rule in their favour - You will not get a penny and you will be pissed off for few days. It happened to me few years ago, suffice to say I am still pissed off with them for chopping my £1500 deposit. 2 Likes |

mizGene: What I noticed about the price is that if you've had your provisional more than 1yr and you just had you full licence, the the price of the provisional licence will be cheaper than the full licence. If you wait till more than 6months before updating your full licence, then the price could reduce. (I might not be totally right) 1 Like |

Controlv: Thank you everyone for your assistance on this matter. I later messaged the letting agent asking him how he came about the 4th May tenancy end date. He responded this morning as follows: "I have to admit I am not sure what happened with the dates but this landlord does only want fixed term tenancies moving forward so we would either need to sign a new fixed term agreement or they would look to relet the property unfortunately. We could potentially do a 12 month agreement with a 6 month break clause if that would be more suitable for you?" I have asked him to proceed with the 12 month fixed term agreement effective 4th April with a 6 months break clause. It is also good to know that we can negotiate our vehicle insurance premium 😉.

Good day elders, Please for those that have applied for IHS refund. My spouse has worked in the Health care industry for the past one year and about to apply for the IHS refund. Can she include the children as well? (knowing that the children dont have payslips to show)? Thanks in advance for the responses |

Controlv: Are you in a more comfortable position now ....... |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Controlv: 2:03pm On Mar 24, 2023 |
Lexusgs430: Well, I think 6 months is more reasonable compared to the 12 months he proposed earlier. Although I would have preferred to remain on the periodic tenancy because it gives me the flexibility to move given that I'm actively looking for a full-time job. The contents of the revised agreement will determine if I am now comfortable or not 😀😀. Thanks for your help always. |

His rent is currently is £1350.00 pcm (3 bedroom house) ....... He came across his Landlord's letter, from mortgage provider....... The mortgage on the property is £355.47 pcm ......

Random thought, is it possible to get someone in Nigeria to open a Netflix account for me and send the password to me here as it seems paying from Naija is cheaper. Will the IP address betray me ? |
