sending pm is not a bad thing. but someone you don't know asking you to pay $1500 to an account for an apartment you have not seen or hear of is fraud. pls don't pay anyone money

oh ok. absolutely i agree! thanks. i was scared cuz i had tried to send princess mum a message with the info for the agent so i didn't want to be labelled cuz I've seen people get accused. but yes i agree and i understand now. i already posted the info publicly so there is no ambiguity.

This is such a good thread and really want to thank everyone for all the invaluable info on here. God bless guys!

Okeksmama:
Hello everyone, I have read through the thread and have gotten a whole lot of info. I intend to give birth in Houston in March pls does anybody have the contact/email of dr comfort ibe in Pasadena? Thanks any info will be highly appreciated.

Hi okesmama not sure if anyone replied you yet... but i googled "dr comfort ibe pasadena" and here is what i got from their website

Hello everyone, for those intending to birth in Maryland or baltimore or washington. Came across this spreadsheet and thought I should share it. It contains hospitals in those areas and their cost for delivery including contacts and phone nos of the financial department

Thanks Aye88.

For the Phoenix POE, I dont think ive read anything on here about that so maybe you are one of the first and you can share your experience with us. But in general

Be honest and declare your intentions to give birth
Have your Dr letter and correspondence
Receipts of pre payments if any
Cash for the all prices quoted to you plus living expenses and remember to declare even it's one cent above 10k
Evidence of a place to stay
pray for favor cuz it could depend on who you meet

Does anyone else have anything else to add...

justwise:
This thread is a magnet for crooks because they want to take advantage of preg women with loads of money traveling to a strange country.
Not everybody here are genuine, some keep viewing but contribute very little just want to see you drop contact details or ask question about accommodation then the PMs started flooding in.
Genuine members here who wants to help will not send you pm offering you any deal, only those dubious characters does that.

Thanks alot for that justwise. Wow I can imagine! But its easy to spot scammers just this morning i got a fake alert from gtb...i digress...ok wasn't sure if i could post it on here seen people get hounded or called advertisers. But i will post now no pm. Congrats to Mrs fad! I Had a friend come in through houston that was questioned for hours this past Saturday.

Please Does anyone have any reliable info on Boston, Atlanta or Delaware state not Philly for hospitals and accommodation. Contacted boston medical and they quoted me like 12k for normal delivery although it includes obgyn fees but thats still like double what ive seen people on here pay and they only give 20 percent discount to non citizens. If that doesn't work I may start looking at Arizona and Co just wanted the option close to family first. if anyone has any info I'd appreciate it.

Princess mum the atlanta Nigerian visa agents email is info@everythingbabyandme.com my friend had some issues and needed to leave the US impromptu so she used them. I haven't used them personally yet but she had a good experience.

this thread has been really helpful but at the same time its turning into something else.
I should not have posted this but I thought of newbies who might fall victim if not warned.

pls pls and pls again.... beware of PM's.... pls don't fall victim of fraud through PM. if you ask a question here and anyone sends you a pm asking you to pay certain amount for certain something abeg, biko, Jo... please don't o.

now the reason why I posted this is due to my experience when I posted here that I needed accommodation around oakbend. I got about 16 PM's and I was wondering that if accommodation is so much in Houston why don't I get at least two replies to my post..

on going through these mails and taking time to reply each of them(I was desperate so yes I replied all)
I posted my email too sometime ago when asking for budget sheet so I guess some must have gotten the email there as well as pm from Nairaland ppl.
As I became communicating with some of them I came to realize that most of them were thieves!! not agents o... big thieves.
therefore newbies beware o. don't send money to anyone to help you get anything.... travel and see with your eyes.. or book online.

sorry for long post.
goodnight

Hi sayo berry. Your last message just scared me silly o. Ok like many people I have been following for a while but never joined talk less of posting until now. I have read most of the pages on this thread but not in order. Anyways thanks for your last post. Looks like you are a veteran at this. Could you please tell me what the general ethics are- like if someone asks a question and you have info they might need what do you do, post it freely or is that advertising or send them a pm....I just sent princessmum a pm but it said she was not online...anyhow, I just want to help if I can and be helped to. But I don't want to get into trouble. Please help us newbies. Thanks!

@justwise looks like you are the moderator, please share your thoughts. Thanks everyone.

Hello Everyone,
Please for previous and current Houston or Atlanta mamas/papas, does anyone have info/number of a reliable agent for obtaining Naija visa in Atlanta or any neighboring State that will take a maximum of 3 days (I'm currently in Houston). The number of the Naija Embassy agent (Mr Tanko) I have has been unavailable for almost 2weeks and I'm running out of time...Pleeeaaaase help a sister out.
@Damsel020...hi dear, please did you eventually use the info i posted earlier for obtaining the Naija visa? If yes, pls what was your experience, how did you go about it and how long did it take? my DH is skeptical on going that route..

@princessmum hi there is an agent in Atlanta that can get your visa in the time frame you want, they even got one for a friend of mine and she got it back next day. I think you mail the passport and forms and a money order to them and they sort you out. This is actually my first post on nairaland I've been following for a while. Lots of good information on here but I am not sure what the policies are. Can I post the info here? Don't want to get banned lol I just joined
