For those it may concern.
I got a decision mail last week Friday (9th September) and haven't even received a collection mail till now. I have picked up my documents this morning (10:45am), albeit it being late as I missed my flight (12pm)
TLS-VI received delivery yesterday night/this morning so they haven't been sorted but they tell people to come check by 2pm. So if yours is urgent and you submitted at VI, I would advise going this evening to check.

I can't even meet up with their 4pm collection time right now and I'm meant to go on Sunday, it's sad that I'm just seeing this

You've always been proactive in advising students to take up any internship no matter the pay. What happened

So sorry. I was so much in a hurry to get to the airport I didn't post it on time. You should remember to reschedule your flight so you don't have to pay excessive fees for no show

I would probably be doing the same thing on Monday in the visa place

I rescheduled for tomorrow, same time

Please help guys. I paid for ihs using StanbicIBTC.i tried to pay for the visa using Gtb but it declined saying it's more than my limit. I tf the money back to my StanbicIBTC to use it to pay for the visa. Declined again that I've passed my limit. Please what bank can I easily use to pay this 521 dollars visa fee?

I had same issue with GTB, and i had to visit their branch and they told me their monthly limit has been reviewed from $1000 to $500 and it took effect from yesterday. As for stanbc, their daily limit remains $500 while monthly limit remains $1200. I will advice you to wait till tomorrow and use Stanbic. Please don't think of trying severally with GTB else your application will be blocked completely. I beg you.

Afternoon, pls i got a mail from tls VI saying mine has been dispatched by courier services and to track but i dont know how to track. Pls if any1 has info pls tell me whether it is to track or when to expect it. thanks

Ideally, they would send the tracking number and the delivery company's name (DHL). Go to their website, go to track parcel and input your tracking number

I will still encourage anybody to do that if the internship is in your area of study, not even about the pay. Leaving the UK to reapply for visa for internship that got nothing to do with what you studied is waste of time and money.

I just arrived London few hours ago.
At the POE, I was only asked the name of the my school and course of study.
She was Like if I have a letter from the embassy ,told her yes and showed her .She just pointed d address on it ,that I will collect my BRP there .
Good luck to everyone .
Any one looking for female flat mate in Birmingham ?

Ask at your schools admissions office.
Also the Student union is another place to ask about accommodation and other countrymen.

Aah, I get you now

Yup. You can't substitute experience in your area of study to another other form of experience transferable or not.

Hotel for few days while you sort out accommodation.

Hello everyone!! Just arrived Manchester!! Who's also going to the university of Manchester?

Justwise someone said one should never mention to them you paying for hotel for few days that instantly they would start to calculate the same money from one's bank account balance. Should i just say i decided to wait till i get my visa issued before making plans for accomodation.
And have seen some properties i would love to go view upon arrival in the uk before making payments. Found it tru Sturent website.

You got nothing to worry about, your maintenance money are for things like accommodation, transport etc in the UK so spending £200-250 on a hotel accommodation is just part of it.

You are not expected to pay for accommodation or book for a flight until you have your visa.
