Hi,does anyone know if i can use my card to pay for my infant's ticket at the airport? This one BA says they cant accept payment over the phone except at the airport and the exchange rate is higher when i withdraw cash from the atm. Help a sis abeg

sugah:


Confirm from your bank what account your card is tied to (savings or current) and then transfer money to that account. Unlike in Nigeria where they can select what account to credit... It goes direct to the account it is tied to and if there isn't enough money in the account, the transaction is declined.

I have 2 cards with gtbank one for savings naira and the other for dollar and I use the savings regularly, if the card is entered manually and I put pin it works but when they swipe it doesn't work

Thanks guyz, really appreciate.

sayoberry:

I've not even paid self. If you have debit card (naija own) u can use it. Or you can go there and make payment before you give birth or pay after you give birth. Anyhow you want it.

Please,if you are a mom who gave birth to triplet and used dr FF,kindly please contact tanko ASAP,your Nigerian visas are ready but there is no return envelope to send the back to you.

Hi everyone, I have been following this thread silently since part 1 and I've learnt a lot. Thanx to everyone for sharing valuable information.
Please I want to know if anyone knows any affordable hospital and doctor in Fayetteville, North Carolina?? I am due in May and still haven't found a doctor or hospital.
The one my auntie who lives there used said they can't accept me as a patient or give me any written appointment until they see me in person. I am worried that at the POE they may ask for any hospital correspondence and I don't want to be sent home abeg!
Any help for this first-time-mama?

dittobaby:
If I may continue,

Now, the issue on ground now is that my son doesn't have a US visa. I just got his interview date today which is in April.
How do I prepare for this? Do I go with him like I'm the one preparing for the interview with all my burden of proof? I am thinking they might now want to question me based on my child birth since they did not have the opportunity the last time Or do I stay back and let my husband take him (he his not traveling with us but joining us after the baby is born).

Hmm... Is Houston your Poe?

Have you gone to Florida with your sister wife and hubby and come back as you told them when you got your visa.

My dear letter of intent or not those above listed facts are very critical to your case at Poe or even renewal

Hello NLs,

I even have a friend that works with card services after calling them I called him and he was giving me same story, I no get energy to go to that their Tiamiyu Savage branch in v.i but before my next travel I will go and pay them a visit because the embarrassment is just too much for me, those oyinbo people will now be asking what card is this what country is it from

Any MIHS Arizona bound mum in April interested in sharing a 2-bedroom?

You can use healthgrade to find a doctor. Where in the USA would you like to have your baby? That will help us guide you.

Good morning mamas & papas in the house, is anyone travelling in May with Delta? Just called their ticket office and the price they gave me made my eye water! N391k something. Biko nu, does anyone have a better alternative? On wakanow, the same ticket and date goes for N338,095 & 377,623. I have never booked tickets through an agent b4 except with Dubai and I hear that if u experience challenges or want to change dates, that it is difficult when u use any agent. Anyone with useful info, please help out.
Thanks.

Try wakanow on Lagos- New York Route ( leaving lagos on 15/5/15 and returning on 30/7/15) Virgin atlantic,BA and Delta are all between 210k/220k. If you get a suitablle date,i would advice you call their office and find out if you can change return date for a liitle fee before you go ahead and pay.. You can then buy a domestic airline ticket from New york to whereever you are going.

My reasons for choosing delta is their flexibility with the fit to fly thingy. I heard they don't have maximum number of weeks they fly preggies. I am looking at leaving on the day I am 35 weeks and then I dont want my POE to be Houston plus the stress of having to use other carriers that travel through their countries like BA. Not entirely made up my mind but in the end it will price that will determine.

Makes sense sha, but look out for other airlines, if their prices are better... cos these prices you mentioned frightened me sef.

I have planned to carry blankets, look for a cozy part of the airport to just sleep, I have 7hrs stopover in Amsterdam. My doc gave me some lexotan a while ago to help me sleep. I have reserved one tab for that journey!

Newmum0615:
@dere5 of life! thanks.

From experience and some posts here, waknow is not friendly at all with changing schedule and adding baby onn your ticket. They can be gangsta sometimes. But different strokes sha.
There is travelstart.com.ng
They have insurance they suggest you buy that allows you to make changes for free. Don't have so much details sha.

Hello,you only ve to renew ur visa if it has expired,if it's still valid at the time u want to use it again after giving birth,u do not need to renew.Secondly,ur child does not qualify for Dropbox so u ve to choose an interview date for him and you or ur husband would be to go with him.
