Trump is a politicians nightmare.... I love his ways of modern politicking.

He tries to achieve contents on his manifesto, as opposed to others, that simply get in and move the goalpost......

He speaks and tweets his mind...... What is not to like about such a president..............

Trump is not a politician, he has no ideals or agenda. He simply stumbled from day to day, safe in the knowledge that the foundations laid by smarter presidents before him will serve as a bulwark against his aimless bull in a china shop approach to life. You’re giving him credit for an economy created by his predecessor and maintained by traditional US institutions.

He doesn’t politic at all, he simply issues threats on Twitter. If he weren’t white, we’d be calling for his removal. What really is this his manifesto you talk about? Did you hear anything the rest of us forgot? Building a wall is not a coherent immigration plan.

Even when it comes to the economy, President Donald J Trump is simply taking credit for the Great Economy left by Former President Barack Obama & Former Chairman of the Federal Reserve Ben Bernanke

Former President Barack Obama inherited a worst economy from Former President W. Bush but was able to turn the economy around during his 8 year tenure as President of the United States including overseeing the Great Recession in 2008...

By the time, he left office the Economy of the United States was definitely in the right trajectory...

It’s very funny when I listen to folks make mention that President Donald J Trump has done more for Blacks than Former President Barack Obama did during his 8 year stint as the President of the United States...

That simply shows me that most people are unable to make an independent research for themselves & can easily be brainwashed...

It also shows me the power of white privilege.

grin The thread will thrive and not die. Since the matter don enter small politics, my own question is also political but still pertains to "living in the UK".

What do you guys think they want to do to the NHS? I thought it was just one of the usual conspiracy theories as per the rumor making rounds of plans to "privatize" the NHS. But as part of trade deal with the US post-brexit, Trump actually mentioned it today while taking questions from reporters during the joint press conference with Theresa May...I con shock o when he said "NHS and other things" will be on the table during US/UK trade talks after Britain leaves the EU.

What could they have in mind and most importantly, what are the possible implications for us? The thoughts of the US healthcare system where we hear people could easily become bankrupt if they lack adequate insurance while critically ill isn't exciting.

You cannot be looking to seek deals, and hope certain sectors of your economy would not be put under the radar.....


The NHS is already experiencing quasi - privatisation..... One little push and its holistic...........


Would be difficult for NHS to go private 100%, but interested parties would still try........

Please do not,I repeat, DO NOT use Ohentpay to transfer money.

As we speak ,I have had to lawyer up and report to the UK police to try to get my money back from these bastards.

I could have been sleeping on my off week but here I am having meetings because of some scum.

If you have no use for your money,toss it in the tip.

I m soooooo angry

Wow, I hope you get your money back.
I mentioned somewhere here that the best rate I have seen so far is on rhemito. And there are several tries and tested platforms too like Azimo, World remit, transferwise etc.

Henceforth, its PayPal or nothing for me.

One of the things I learnt from the police is that PayPal is the safest.

Use a credit card if possible.

Always log out of the banking app on your phone when you are done.

I have been using azimo for months,no issues.

I now decided to use ohentpay. I will take him down if it's the last thing I do. Thank God it's registered in the UK. Bastard

Hope you can recover lost funds back....... For the sake of a few naira, I resist temptations of slightly higher offerings by others.......

Be mindful, paypal too can be equally nasty (if your seller/buyer tells a heap of lies).......

PayPal does not do money transfers as we know it, so money remittance through PayPal is not an option.

Or do you mean you would transfer funds to recipients, using PayPal?.....

The police officer that suggested PayPal, does not understand how money transfer system works....

Section 75 would cover you using CC, but what would you do if funds you want to transfer, exceeds your cc balance?.....
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Mimzyy(f): 11:35am On Jun 05, 2019
I mentioned this some days back.I don’t think they are fraudulent though but there’s something seriously wrong with their modus operandi. Never gonna use them again.They went ahead to send me mail that they have changed their bank account, I just marked the mail as spam. Once bitten...

Mimzyy:
Exactly. I almost had hbp on Sunday after I sent money to the account and the naija acc wasn’t credited not until some hours later after I sent mails and Facebook messages. I’ll just stick with my old method. Miolewaku.

Can one make transfer from credit card? Will there be a charge since it is equivalent to withdrawing cash?

Transfer in what sense?.....?

If you spend via swiping or online, it's not withdrawing cash...... Or am i not understanding your question?...

You can try them if you like

I hope you have a good lawyer and you like police stations. You ll get a chance to indulge to the fullest.

I transferred a huge amount of money to them. Till now no payment or refund.

Goodluck with that.

You can transfer up to 2333 pounds with PayPal.
