Did two BA bookings to different destinations in the US on wakanow over the weekend (trying to trust them again after one very annoying failing on their part previously), paid using my naija bank MasterCard and was auto-ticketed, less than 300k the one, less than 400k the other. Seems tickets ain't flexible though, not so sure, but will be using them on the dates they were bought for.

Just pm you, please reply

BA is a long story o, I was at the office today at Ikoyi. The security told me I have to use a dollar card to pay online after booking that Naira card is no longer acceptable. He gave me a second option of booking on the phone but with extra 30$ charge. I eventually called the customer care number displayed in their office and spoke with one Indian guy who couldn't pronounced English alphabets very well and made my booking. He gave me the reservation code and adviced I pay before 72hrs at any gtbank branch. You might want to try this option too, just make sure you spell out the names clearly to whoever picks your call and also your travel dates to avoid mistakes because I am sure you will definitely speak to an Indian. All the best

Thanks so much! Will try this

Why dont u book direct from BA website and pay naira equivalent at any GTB bank at the rate of 314naira per1 dollar as at today BA rate. And they will issue the ticket and sent to your Email.instead of using those Ticketing agents or Using your mastercard. Thats how i normally purchase my wife and kids BA tickets.

Its not an option anymore, I called their customer care to confirm, the only option now is to book via their customer care lines and it's usually not the same price as what is seen on their website.

Your doctor's correspondence doesn't have to be from a Dr in Kathy,it could be from a Houston Dr as well and you can port to Katy.. Texas is the most used state on this thread ,so your getting a letter from a Dr & hospital in Texas shouldn't be a big deal

Thanks for the respond dere5. But the Dr I got in oakbend ask me too pay a deposit of 600dollars before I can be given an appointment letter . And was told if I don't use them there will be no refund of my money.

Hian! $600 kwanu,it use to be free o,then it went up to $300,now it's $600.God help us o,that's almost 280-290K in Naira . I won't advice you to pay it o,since you are not planning to use him,except you are,then,it will be deducted from your final bill.
What i would advice you to do is read this thread thoroughly with a pen and jotter and take down as much Dr and hospitals email address as possible and keep firering those email and I'm sure that before long you will get an unconditional reply that you can use for your interview and POE ? GOODLUCK

I guess he or she still does. It is not compulsory,but i guess it would go a long way to show that you are prepared.What the budget sheet does is to let the visa officer interviewing you know that you are adequately prepared and had thought and calculated how much everything would cost you and that you can afford it

A bit complex. A gamble. Be truthful and say dat delivery was an after thot cos u had advanced wen u decided to deliver there and if dey ask u if u wrote to notify d embassy,say u didn't know u could. Show evidence dat u paid all bills. Daz all o. Honesty always pays. All d best dear.

Thank you so much.You have said it all.No other advice can surpass this your advice...Indeed, honesty always pays and that's what these guys look out for in any conversation or interview...Thanks once again.
