User review: I use this for my pounded yam and it usually tastes amazing. I also use it to chop okra, and make smoothies amongst other things. Got it from Argos and no issues ever since.
Ninja is a very good product, if you are an NHS worker get the blue light card and get it 30pounds cheaper. Bought mine already before I realised it could come cheaper with the blue light card

I took manual. I could drive both from nigeria and when I was searching for cars, manual cars were cheaper. But half way through my lessons, I got a bargain on auto but decided to go ahead with manual lessons and test.

I started my lessons in march and had 3 hours(twice a week) lesson every week till I did my test on 2nd June. Some weeks had no lessons and some had only 1. So I'm not exactly sure how many I took. I took so many lessons cos I heard Birmingham was a difficult place to learn, similar to London. If you're in a quiet city, you mat not need as many lessons.
Thanks for the details. I can't drive manual at the moment. Do I need to look for an instructor before booking the practical test. I tried to pick a date for the test so I can plan driving lessons towards it but couldn't as requesting for instructors details. Is that your experience as well?

Clarification, for biometrics with self upload option. Is it just the international passport and checklist that are required as documents to take alongfor biometrics?

Can he get assisted service when the visitor gets to Ikeja for biometrics tomorrow by paying the fee. Then is printed coloured copies of documents acceptable?
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by tushqueen(f): 6:29pm On May 10, 2022
Asking on behalf of a friend, he is inviting his sister to the UK on a visitor's visa. He submitted the application only to realise that he all documents were submitted except his own birth certificate. It was a self service application, how can he add this document when he has the original copy with him in the UK.

Please this is urgent

I want to be ready for the property thing in 3 years max which is why I'm trying to plan from now

Do I need to be recommended for the Amex or i can just sign up for it when I believe I'm ready?

Kindly advise
I think you should just try applying straight
TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by tushqueen(f): 12:48pm On Mar 25, 2022
I stopped checking eligibility on amex as it wasn't allowing me input my naija address, I've only lived here under 2years. I then went on to apply and I got the Amex CC with 6k credit limit.

Thanks for bring this amex up mamatukwas.

Now what does that annual fee of 140pounds mean please?

Who do more people not try to get the Amex credit card? They have me 1,500 at my first attempt with them and have increased my limit 4 times.

Worth a try.
I haven't lived up to 3years in the UK. It requested for my old address (Nigerian) but its not recognizing it

[quote author=KOVIC19COVID20 post=111273664]I'm not keen on interest rates as I'm not permitted to earn interest.

Moneybox ohhh
Haagreaves ohhh
All will give you interest.

If you are truly not permitted to earn interest, and you really wish to live by that, here is a siMple solution:
Go to Poundland, buy a piggybank (it costs £1).
Then be saving your money in there. Keep the piggybank safely under your bed.
No interest will accrue.

Thanks from r your advice, you do well.

However, in this case I need the 25% bonus not the interest, and piggy vesy won't give me that!

It's basically the interest rates and mode of management.

Moneybox IMO is the best for now.

Thank you very much, I will take my time to listen to the video attached to see if there are other benefits. I'm not keen on interest rates as I'm not permitted to earn interest.

[quote author=dupyshoo post=110964250]It was not an issue previously so far the child is not going out of the UK. Now, you are expected to pay for the child's IHS after 3 months. This makes it mandatory to apply for the visa. I am not sure you can pay for IHS without applying. What I am also not sure of is what happens if the child uses NHS without paying. Will it stop the child from being registered as British?

What if the parents are on health and care visa where you do not have to pay for IHS?
