Try using grey virtual card or chipper cash card (these are the cards that worked for me. Or if you have someone that uses revolut, that one should work also.

Pls I need help.
I attempted to make a payment for a visa appointment, but the transaction wasn't executed. I tried executing the same transaction but on the page is the message "payment declined ".

There was an option to reschedule, and upon clicking on it, I was brought to the appointment date selection page. However, it still wouldn't display any dates to select from.

To make the matter worse, it's asking me to go back to the dashboard to pay this fee, and yet I couldn't access or know where or what to do next.

You pay for priority on the VFS Global website. Just after you have paid for your IHS and Visa fee you will be redirected to the VFS Global website where you can pay for it.

Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by josh4me: 4:13am On Sep 05, 2025
You can simply open a Chipper Cash account, buy a virtual usd card (you don't need to create a usd account to get one, and it can be funded with Naira). Once you open the Chipper Cash, buy the card (I think it should be $5 for the visa card), but just know that you are funding the card at black market rate. For the Grey, you need to have an approved USD account with them (this might take time to get), so I suggest using Chipper Cash.

To use revolut, you need a friend (a trusted one o) in the UK to help create a disposable GBP card on his or her revolut bank app and send you the details. You'd send the person Naira to fund the account and then make payments with the details he gives you.

Hello Everyone

Has we have a lot of cases of people with standard visa application still not getting a response after more than 6 weeks of application/no response. If one applied for priority visa, is he/she guaranteed to have a faster response or there are people that also have delayed response with that?

Then how much is the standard student visa application fee? And how much is for priority visa?

You have to choose your appointment date based on your category from VFS (either normal one, premium lounge, etc). I'd advice you use premium lounge for £70.14 so they can help you upload and you have premium handling during the process. Once you pick your date, you'd get your appointment letter and you'd be prompted to pay the visa priority or super priority on the vfs dashboard. then use your chipper cash card or grey card, or like someone suggested, GTB Naira card to pay for the fee. You'd be directed to their payment gateway to make the payment.

Hello House,

Why is it taking UKVI so long to make a decision on my application, considering the fact that my enrollment is on September 22?

I did my bio on 4th August, First additional information requested on 11th August, I submitted the requested doc. on 14 August. Then second additional information requested on 18th of August, I responded on the 22nd of August. Since then, there has been no communication. I called their UK line on 1st Sept., they said it is under processing. I have reached out to my references and the bank and they said no correspondence from the UKVI has been received. My concern is that my program starts september 22, I have barely 3 weeks and I have no clue.

What do I do? should I just sit and wait.

Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by Sheezybobby(m): 4:33pm On Sep 05, 2025
Please, does anyone knows what I can do to reach out to ukvi, I've already done two paid inquiry and since 30th July that I have applied for visa, Am yet to get a response from ukvi, I've already done two paid email but I was notified that it still under consideration. I now informed them to escalate it, but they told me that escalation can only be done after 12 weeks. My University enrolment begins on 15th of September which is 1 week away. Please what do you think I can do? I already emailed the MP Begum, but I was told that it will tke 10 working days before they get back to me.


Please, what can I do at this moment?

Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by mostical(m): 7:57am On Sep 06, 2025
Good morning, great people,
I had my TB test in February to expire August 27th in preparation of traveling to the UK last May but the admission was differed to September. For my Visa processing on August 11th, I uploaded the same TB test cert as it was still valid then and thank God my VISA was approved.
My question is, is it safe to travel with this expired TB test because I learnt immigration do ask for some of these things? Will it still be tenable or I should do another test before I travel?
Thank you.
