No, there will be no communication whatsoever. I used a third party and he informed me of my IHS refund.

Hello,
Do someone get a mail that the IHS has been refuded? In case someone made the payment with a third party account so as to notify the account holder.
Thanks

You don't really need to get new certificate, your new passport has the old passport number stated on it. But if you feel like getting new certificate it's N8,500 just visit IOM

Last Saturday, I received a response to the mails I'd been sending. Do you think I need to send another email to the IHS refunds team?
Kukujajaja:
Sorry about the refusal letter. Besides, I suggest you have to include necessary information in order to expedite the refund.
If you have not received your IHS refund and you think you qualify, you will need to email the IHS refunds team at: IHSrefunds@homeoffice.gov.uk. In your email you should include your name, your sponsor's name, your Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) number, your IHS number and the date on which you paid the surcharge.

Spot on!
Patnuel2015:
You can use it to pay for your tuition. Don't use it as PoF for Visa application. Though it was supposed to be acceptable for Visa PoF but to be on safer side, find another means for your pof. When you get to UK, sign your loan and have the money sent to the school.

@Justwise and all, I was the one who that shared my refusal letter some weeks back. I got very useful advice from here. At a point I wanted to give up but God came through. Got a new CAS and re-applied, decision came out positive in 7days. Thanks to everyone and particularly those that suggested I apply for a new CAS rather than AR.

All Glory to God Almighty.

Thanks! I have deferred to January intake already. Please try to get them to include the loan amount on your CAS if possible. I tried same with my school before my visa application, they said that since they have not actually received the funds, they can't include it on the CAS and they do not know how much they'd eventually receive in pounds sterling (loan is denominated in USD) due to exchange rate fluctuation. I wish you all the best!
Ebalafaa:



Honestly, your comment is spot on!!! People that are doing the honest and right thing are being denied, while those 'arranging POF' are being granted. Strange stuff right there.

Thanks for your advice. I plan to contact the school on this on Monday. In my case, I sent the letter from Prodigy Finance to the Finance team and they have ticked off the finance condition for me earlier this month. I am optimistic that by God's grace, the school would give me a receipt evidencing receipt of that amount (though disbursement is not till October) so I can use in lieu of the loan letter.

This is why I am grateful for this thread and everyone who is willing to contribute and share their experiences (positive or negative). God bless you all.

I would keep the house updated on developments so that others can also be guided.

@Tolvin hang in there. Do you still have some time for late resumption? Please speak to your school....I believe it is not yet the end.

[quote author=Ebalafaa post=106149808][/quote]Thank you very much. I was really down when the rejection came in and I was almost getting depressed. But I had to move forward. I wasn't certain of the outcome from AR as I definitely knew that I couldn't hold on to the funds in my bank account indefinitely. Plus, I can't apply for AR anymore as it's already past 6weeks. That's why I decided to defer my admission to January entry instead.
Travel / Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 6 by Tolvin: 10:55am On Sep 25, 2021
For Prodigy Finance to disburse the funds to the school, you'd need to have arrived on campus to sign the loan agreement. So, no disbursement till you get to the university and there's no way you can get to the school without having received your visa. Hence, the visa application. A friend of mine used Prodigy for Netherlands visa application and he got it. But the UK is different from the Netherlands.

I honestly want to believe it's an error from the ECO and I would have applied for AR but I had to return the funds in my bank account and my passport had exactly 8months to expiration when I applied for my visa. If I had applied for AR, my passport would be less than six months to expiration.However, you can get a letter from the university attesting to the Prodigy Finance loan letter.

I have deferred my admission to January entry and I will get the full funds in my bank account to present to UKVI.

I actually had thesame loan letter and I presented it to them. You can go ahead to apply with an additional letter from the school if that could help or you decide the get the full funds, wait for 28days and apply. I pray everything comes out successful
Ebalafaa:


What?? It is the same one I have. But the UKVI rules say you can use a student loan letter as POF. Is it because of the condition in foot prints on the attached letter you were refused? I think you should get the school involved and/or ask for administrative review.

I am really sorry about this for you. This is making me unsettled because I planned to apply on Tuesday.

So that I and other people here can learn from your experience, please I would need additional clarification from you. Prodigy Finance is regulated by the FCA and the rules say the company granting the loan should be regulated by the FCA. Why then are they rejecting it? What then is the way forward? Would an additional letter from your school confirming acceptance of the loan from Prodigy Finance and advance disbursement help or would have helped?

I wouldn't advise you to use one in my opinion. Get the required funds in a bank account then when you get to the university, you can present your loan to them.
