CBN has blocked Transferwise from sending to Nigeria

Is there any other means of making transfers to Nigerian accounts from Monzo?

Which of the credit card package is good to apply for ? as someone who is here on Tier 2 Visa. Which one is for mortgage and loan.
Then this credibility score on credit card what's it all about?

Please someone should enlighten me.

No way .... no Tier 4 and their dependents comes with NI because working with Tier 4 is a personal choice unlike Tier 2.

So for Tier 4 and their dependents if the person decides they want to work then they must use their hands to apply by themselves

BRP is needed when applying for NI. Right now that nairalander can't apply for NI number.

In this economy that there’s no job talk less or student job? Let the person find the job first then come and complain she got the job but no NI.

You don’t need NI to apply for a job (if needed it would be optional), you only need the NI if you get the job. Then all of us will join and pray again the village people together. MFM style.

Your school shukd be able to give you a letter to enable you open a bank account. NI, as I gave heard comes with the BRP so no worries there. Again the letter from your school should be okay for the GP but if not, still no need to worry. If you are sick, you will be treated. The expiry of the Vignette should not be a problem since the Home Office themselves are the ones responsible for the delay.
In summary, no need to worry. Face your studies and you will get your BRP soon. Just periodically check with your school or Home Office.
I find this helpful, thank you.

LOL, this is the simplest thing to learn. He's not coming to set up a hairdressing salon, so he doesn't need to have skill.
Stand in front of a bathroom mirror, fit the desired clipper guard size (1 gives the closest cut) and run the clipper over your head. The trim is not always as neat as it could be the first time, but with repeated practice he'll get better.

This is winter, he'll prolly be wearing a beanie or a hoodie anyway, so any funny results can be kept to himself for a week or 2, not that anyone is looking.

7 to 10 pounds is even cheaper. I do see 15 to 20pounds here in my area.

I went to Tesco today and got a Wahl product of clipper at 12pounds.

I go learn barbering by force.

So in essence, that cheap purchase, is now an expensive mess............ grin

You bought a dumb TV, instead of a smart TV..... grin

Afterall, nah only £80 you pay...... Dump it at your local council tip, invest in a proper TV........ grin

Register with amazon prime, watch live matches or download livetv app and chromecast.......... grin
