I had thé same problem in Nigeria. They keep asking you for hôtel reservation and stuff. i told them thé embassy confirmed my reservation before they gave me visa. they keep telling you they will ask u when u get there and nobody asked. They just asked why i was there and i told the SA immigration guy. He even called me igwe and stamped my Passport. |

@OP, Traveling even for leisure is serious business and you should be more prepared next time by taking every document along. Those are normal protocols depending on the country you are visiting. Besides, from your story it's not quite clear why you didn't just reprint your reservation from the earlier hotel you used to apply for visa rather than book a new hotel. Simply go back to the desk and ask for a refund. You have evidence there was a mistake. 2 Likes |

I think those MMIA always try to rip pple off.... I could remember been stopped at the boarding pass check point cos the suit jacket I was carrying has a metallic hanger. she just pointed out that I need to buy something to wrap the hanger else they won't allow me into plane. just at that moment, some one brought a wrapping sheet selling at 1.5k. They thought I was still a novice with their prank... Truth is, many people fall for their tricks especially first timer. |

obidevine: U r a very careless man, with an equally careless wife. More woe will befall u if u do not put ur acts together and pay more attention to detail. Thank God it was just money u lost now...not somwthing more important. 1. He was in hurry cos he probably came late for checkin 2.he forgot his hotel reservation- who does that. Then he pid for another one.who again, does that? You book and pay on arrival. 3. Oky, so u paid, and d few minutes, maybe 30at depature concourse, you dint check ur docs, on the 5 or 6 hr fligjt, u still didnt check d docs till u got to the hotel? Oga u deserve slap U can get your refund from the agency tho.involve avsec..aviation security or pilice 4 Likes |
