I have a little experience.

1. No refunds for listing names.
2. You are given points upon signing up.
3. Put 1500, if accepted, you can opt to increase to whatever amount you like.

Thanks, bro. This helped.

I finally signed up on SquadHelp. But some things are a bit unclear to me even after reading several help articles. I wish someone here with experience using the platform can help.

1. I found out the best option for submission is "Premium," which requires using coins ($1 each). Are these coins refunded if a name is rejected?

2. I also saw an option to apply points for a 50% discount when I tested the "buy coins" feature. It seemed like the discount was applied when I checked that option and I was surprised. I read that one is supposed to get the points from contests and I have not taken part in any. Are you given some points when you first sign up?

3. Finally, I was asked to suggest a price, with the caveat that my submission may be rejected if it's too high. I thought they'd suggest one. How do you guys price the domains you submit to them, please?

Thanks in anticipation.

By the way, is that you in the DP? The lady looks lovely and gentle, although she might be very troublesome.

You drag people to your post with "Catchy" titles only to disappoint them with rubbish?


Don't worry, on the last day, you'll see how the devil we lure you to his abode.

Obviously, the guy disappointed you so much.

Good one with the update, bro. I wonder how Stanbic managed this, though

ElonMosque:
Yes they do. You can reg a name today and have it accepted in 3 days.

Ok, thanks for the reply.

viktor88:
Yes, they do

Ok. Thanks, bro. But do you know if they accept and LIST freshly-registered names?

I hail, my people. Please I'd like to know if anyone here has any idea whether SquadHelp assists in promoting names listed in its marketplace?

Also, can one submit freshly registered names to them? Thanks.

The sun was burning as hell at 10:15am

What now happened around 1pm

Is either you're lying or you are not saying the truth.

By the way, I stay in FCT too.

Those who should complain about the sun around that period should be those living in Gwagwalada and it's environs.

Um, what's the difference?

You're right, Nicklaus619. Zero social distancing at all the banks I passed by today. I actually expected that, though.

This same yeye Access Bank showed me in a transaction notification last Wednesday that a fund transfer I did on their ATM was a withdrawal. They also sent me a notification same day that I had been charged extra for an online FX transaction I did more than two weeks before then.

I tried to visit a branch today to complain since they failed to respond to messages sent since last week. Boy, when I saw the queue outside, with no social distancing observed, I repented immediately.

May God keep us all. They still have an explanation to do when all this ends.

#MYGODLIVES
Well GRACE OF GOD IS ALIVE IN ME...

I mentioned here few days back, of Dan trying to mess up a sale for me, because of their payment gateway.

This is the full story.
I registered this domain name Washington## business///brokers in king few months back and did a little outbounding no reply.

So last week because this month has been low on sales for me,mostly $100 sales.And I have being believing GOD for a miracle which I believe he will give me, I decided to outbound for the name and increased its asking price to 750. After doing outbounding I got a message from my whois privacy instead of normal mail reply, asking is this you, I began conversations with the enduser who said he could only pay 50 dollars for it. I accepted and asked him to pay and changed the Bin and sent him a dan link to pay for the 50 dollars, and he started forming.

Immediately I received another direct reply message from another enduser again, saying that the domain is worth it, and 750 is good but for now he can pay 500, I told him 599 and changed my bin again and sent him the Dan link.
Immediately he replied that his both cards are declined, and marked fraud, and if am in Netherlands.

I took the domain to epik and informed Rob about it, he asked me the price I told him 599, that we have already agreed, and begged him to help me convince the end user, that it's not a fraudulent transaction and that epik is now in charge.
Rob helped me and I messaged the enduser again on Friday telling him he should just try buying it.
He didn't reply me again, but on Sunday I just saw epik sales message, of successful sale and I should make a transfer of the name from dynadot.
I did the transfer with authorized code to my own epik account and renewed for another year, and had it transferred to him immediately to his epik account in less than 6hours total.

Rob sent the fund once I mailed him and thanked him.
Total transaction time didn't take 15hours from when I recieved the information that it has being sold.

That's all....
Thanks all
GOD GRACE GOT Me
My GOD LIVES!!!

Congrats on your awesome sale, bro!

Me sef pray for this kind grace and even bigger o.

RenaissanceGuy:
Congratulations. What I can see from here is that sometimes prospective buyers can lose interest in purchasing a very good domain name if the price is too low, which may make them to start doubting the value of the domain. Sounds strange, but that's the fact.

You may be right! I think someone, probably Japty, once told me something along those lines and I have also observed it myself. On a number of times, I have thought someone might have succeeded in selling the names I couldn't sell even at low prices at far higher prices.

Some sales I have seen here of late are altering my views that low prices would help secure sales. I think it's better to charge better price, especially when one will be outbounding. Pitching a low-priced domain name probably makes one to look cheap.

ornicus:
Your generation is completely lost. You will make excuses for anything. My first job was 29k. It was not paid regularly. I worked at it until I got another job. Maybe I too should have been robbing my employer blind. Once a thief, always a thief, whether you are earning 10k or 2 million.. Poverty is a state of mind, which is why you see Nigerians stealing for their children’s unborn generations.

Um, the bold sounds like too much generalisation, sire.

dicksonadams:
I didn't get any email notifications of these transactions apart the 6k+, neither did I get the OTp token before transactions are initiated.

Please what is the way out of this kind of situation

Bro, sorry about the loss (but let's hope it isn't).

This might not necessarily be an inside job, although I want to believe there are crooks in the banking system.

Have you ever used the said card online? It might be that the website on which you used it has been compromised and someone got your card details.

You see, this is an example of why I am reluctant of using my card online, especially for international transactions. You don't get an OTP when using your card for FX transactions and that's concerning.

People, I'd advise we all have a special account to use for online purchases or POS transactions and it should ideally have an amount of money you won't lose much sleep over if stolen.

As for the solution, I believe you have seen what some people have suggested - you may involve the CBN and the EFCC, if the bank is not cooperating and you have never used your card online.

worworbabe:
Must you live in Lagos? So you will born pikin and be forking in their presence.

Shameless lot.

Imagine how you reason. So children come before marriage? Even if they do, they are born as 5 or 7 years olds?

Let me enlighten you a little. Many landlords today started in a single room; I think I know some. At the same time, some people who lived in flats could have ended up in slums or back in village. Think before you say things!

I wonder why you even had to direct your post at me. I never said that's my situation. Cool it! We haven't met, so you can't accuse me of having done you wrong.

Dayoebe:
This relationship isn't for everyone. Some of us were born to say ''wow nice couple'' and continue eating

frozen70:
You are absolutely right

Most and I mean a big number of men with small joy sticks, go for Virgins

They know why and you will think they are proud getting married to a virgin, no ❗ ❗ ❗

They have their secret reason

I opened this thread hoping to read something different, but I have seen something along the lines of the bold portion repeated over and again. Sorry, your post was the final one that made me decide to comment.

A question: are you ladies saying those men chose to have small P? And now that they have it, they shouldn't get married?

Some ladies are so confused these days. I saw on another thread someone stating that a person without a 2-bedroom apartment shouldn't think marriage. Small time now na dem go full church dey pray for any man.

You ladies are most likely still very young and, in your mind, "hot." Kontinu.

worworbabe:
If you can't afford a two bedroom apartment rent, you have no business getting married.

S'oro niyen? Only if you have an idea of how much that costs in Lagos, where most workers probably don't earn more than 50k a month. Guess that horde has no business with marriage then.

Sexytincoll:
i just graduated and have all this aside a partner and I'm not so good on the internet,i guess that's why I am finding it difficult

You have a "fat bank account"? Abeg, show for za oda room.

Wandered here again today (think I was here in the past), (no) thanks to the temporary prohibition of large gatherings. Man couldn't go to church again.

I think it's worthwhile that introverts on here know that all introverts are not the same. You can't compare yourself to the other person by reading the posts here.

For instance, some introverts love the company of loved ones (truly loved and understanding ones), while others prefer own company entirely. Know yourself and try to adapt appropriately.

Vibesking:
Been through lots of posts here and I've noticed people seem to be battling with their personalities.

I've been through what most of you are currently experiencing and I fully relate with the feeling. Sometimes I feel genuinely sad when I read through y'all post.

I've been through lots of depressions, battled with inferiority complex, and also experienced social awkwardness. Communicating with others was difficult as I often don't know what to say in conversations. Plus I had zero friends.

At first, I blamed it at my personality (being an introvert). But later on, I got to discover that my personality wasn't a disadvantage. It's actually a blessing.

The thing is, if you don't make deliberate efforts to understand and know yourself, you'll always think you have a problem.

I took on the task to understand my personality— devouring all I could on subjects pertaining to psychology and philosophy.

Little by little, I started understanding my likes and dislikes; my tastes; my preference; my kind of music etc. I learned to accept myself and it changed everything.

I got abreast with my abilities and worked on my flaws. I'm far from being perfect but I love myself more and I'm much happier than I used to be. I still fall into depression sometimes but I don't remain there. I always manage to get up and keep forging through life.

Dear introvert, the fact you're not like the rest of the larger population of the world is exactly what makes you unique. You've got more abilities and skills than you realize. Stop trying to become what you're not just because people tell you you're "weird."

You can be an introvert and still accomplish great things. The first step is to fully understand who you are.

Your Creator infused this personality in you because He felt it's what you'd needed for a successful life. It's not a mistake you're the way you are.

If you're like me, you probably don't have a lot of friends. But sometimes you just want to share your feelings and burdens with someone who genuinely understands you.

I've created a WhatsApp group which you're welcome to join

https:///39bQ9Pe

No criticism. No back lash. Just a family of fellow introverts ready to listen and support each other. You're not alone.

Embrace yourself.
Wear your insecurities.
There are over 7 billion people in the world and no one is like you. That's your power.

Goodluck folks.

Nice post. The idea of a group is a good one, too, even if it comprises of less than 10 people. It should be about quality, not quantity.

I only think that a Telegram group may be more preferable because the app offers more privacy. Not everyone will be pleased with the public having access to their phone numbers. Just saying.

dammypat:
Staying indoor if I am not going to work is a bliss for me,I enjoy my company,I don’t keep friends,I hardly share my pains as I go through them alone,heal and bounce back,I’ve outgrown not talking in the midst of people,I can address a crowd,I hate being dependent on people and I have a lot of DIY skills because my brain functions well when I am alone,I hate noise and having too much people around reason why I am choosing a garden wedding party of not more than 20 people(I pray hubby agrees)
A guy I dated for a short time once told me,I have a problem because I am not outgoing but I am grateful to God for the kind of person I am,my mom is always grateful too and do thank me for giving her peace of mind even though I am 7hrs away from home
I am an introvert but outspoken and bold when I’m being cheated,I am a loyal friend,keep secrets,deep thinker and can’t double date,I don’t joke with my peace of mind,I love nature,the moon,waters and mountains especially,I also love seeing new places.
Shout out to all introverts here,we are the strongest beings on earth.

The bold resonates. I pray you find a man that would agree to that, if you eventually found it's what you really want.

You can address a crowd? That's a good quality most introverts lack. Keep it up!

You actually seem to like most of the things I like as well.

At this moment of self isolation, I always feel like going outdoors because my privacy/solitude has been invaded... Can't even enjoy my me time again

Just a little, and in a different way.

I'm unable to go to places I normally go when I feel like mixing with people or just to take a brief break from my thoughts and other things.

The Chronicles of the abnormal Nigerian yoot...


Hello everyone,

i have been a silent member of this thread and i think i should express the way i have been feeling this past period... please pardon the rant... i just need to let out some steam

EDIT: i have to cut out a large chuck of this, so that it would be short for you guys to read.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Being an introvert isn't that bad, what is worst is being an introvert and also a stammerer... yep that is me.

well i have come to accept the fact the way it is and there is nothing that can be done about it

i am the type of person that is scare of any thing that would single me out, i remember how my heart pound when i am asked a question in school that will make me express my self... i dont know if its the fear of me stammering or that "introverted fear" that will make my voice shaky and my hand sweaty with a cold feet.

Because of my kind of personality i so so so much love to stay indoors -at least it makes me to reduce the way i meet and mingle with people, but as i grew older, i knew i will have responsibilities to bear, so some months ago i got a job.

the day i resume my job, what was in my head was "how will i cope with this people", "how will i socialize" and i am amazed that i survived after 2 and a half month and funny enough, no body talks to me in the office except when its critical. My kind of job is one that i would need to be relating with people everyday and God has done it, i have been able to adapt -this still remain a testimony.

so let me talk about me being depressed, that i was so close to commit suicide.

Over the past year i have been extremely depressed, despite i got a job but i still feel like a failure - i did so poorly in school, that my career is in ruin, currently my mate went to NYSC and i am still here- i dont even have the hope of going in the next two years; and no body in my family knows or even bother to ask me except one of my aunt.

i had to summon so much courage to tell my aunt not to expect anything from me because i have fail them...well that what i get when i cant have a conversation with others family members and them even not bothering to know how i have been coping for the last four years in school.

let me spare you all my misery and tell a bit about my social life...

the only person i call my friend, that i could talk too is avoiding me, why, he told me "he now has more contacts" meaning he doesn't need my company again every since he came back from NYSC camp, we barely chat unlike before, he probably made new friends there over there, friends he thinks are better than me... he is the only person i open up to tell what i am passing through... he doesn't even know the reason i come online in whats app is just to communicate with him, well... i will survive.

oh i didn't mention he has a girl friends more of a f***k mate now, probably devoting his time to her.

so when all these things happened, i figure that " hey dude (me) its time to get out of the shell, see if you can make news friends or in this case see if you can make a girl friend.

i feel so shy among people especially the opposite sex, i tried having a girl friend and it all failed, i am even lost interest in trying but i just have to keep pushing on.

i feel most of you may be asking why is he concern about having a girl friend, well, i just need someone of the opposite sex to talk to, all my life i have away been with my guys, so i want to know how it feels like talking to someone else.

for the last 3 days, every evening, i would just walk around my neighborhood thinking of who i can talk to but unfortunately i have seen none... rather i have seen none like me.

i apologize for boring you with my long tales...i just needed to air it out, in case i am not there anymore, let me have someone/thing to speak for me

The Chronicles of the abnormal Nigerian yoot...

Rant? I write same and, just like you, I end up cutting out some supporting portions. Most people don't like reading long stuff online.

Brother, I can relate with some of the things you wrote up there. The only thing is that I don't think I have ever come any close to contemplating suicide.

I believe I'm much older than you. It might be said that my view of life has changed significantly and I know what is worth worrying about, if anything at all.

Bro, being an introvert is not really a bad thing. And if you ask, although it's good to have friends (good ones), it doesn't mean you are sick or weird if you don't have any. I can't really feel you're a friend, for instance, if you have shown to not be trustworthy or to be overly critical.

I see you indicated that your only friend wasn't interested anymore. You have lost value in his eyes, so just move on! Don't depend too much on anybody for affection or anything. They can fail you. Be your own man.

I have to admit that loneliness can be scary sometimes. If you'd love to make friends or have people you can relate with, try to participate in group activities. It's good you mentioned that you have a job; start from there. Just try to do things, especially the ones you love, with other people.

But hold on a minute, it seems what you are actually after is a girlfriend. Still, don't act needy like I see guys often do. And I hope this is not so that you can satisfy carnal desires.

Believe in yourself and try to improve; all other things will fall in place in due time. You're young. There are still lots of opportunities and time for you to become the better you.

PS: Reading the post of Epositive, I felt I should add something. We should aim to express ourselves more when there is a real need for it. This should be less difficult to do when relating with peers or people of a similar age group. Just think something like, "They are just my age mates, nothing can happen," or whatever keeps your mind at ease.

Aschente:
Pls read carefully
Here is a new roll over strategy I want to work on
Okay, think 1.3 odds single bet.
Now instead of rolling over the normal way we do with a single ticket.
We run 10 different tickets let's say at 100 naira each meaning total capital is 1000 naira.
So we roll over different 1.3 odds in 10 different tickets at the same time once our 1000 naira initial capital doubles we restart.
Worst case scenario if all but 1 is left after 10 successful rollovers we get 13odds which is 3 units more than our initial capital.

Let's leave losing all aside for now.

So What do u guys think.

Many have tried, but it ended in...

Update from Dan!

2h
Starting from today, we will be removing all Corona Virus related domains from http :// DAN. COM.

We're seeing astronomical high prices being asked for these domains and find that unethical and unacceptable

One of the registrar's also sent a mail yesterday or so that it would be blocking the registration of such domain names, unless those registering can justify them.

priceaction:
if you like your self, stay away from access bank during this period.They are known for evil charging from history. Same as ecobank. i will test StanbicIBTC soon, they always have fair rates over time, but am not sure as at this period.

Strangely, I found their rates slightly cheaper than Zenith's for the transaction I did using the card they issued before the latest incident.

If not for Epik requiring too much info than I am comfortable with, what business have I with using a Naira Debit card for FX transactions.

RESHARPENED:
Zenith Bank just charged me #409/$1.

Is anyone else experiencing this hike in exchange rates?

Bro, yours was better. Would you believe that Access charged me approximately N415/$?

The most annoying bit was that I used my card to fund Epik account since 10 Mar., but it was last night (25 Mar.) that I received a mail of extra FX charge. Isn't that madness!

Josmila:
Omo... over 700 end users dead in the US already. Those infected are in my prayers always

Many bank staff compromise bank account details with the fraudsters...Remember many of them also give information to the armed robbers....When they are less busy many of them will be checking your account and what is there.....Any call from anybody claiming to be a bank staff should be disregarded,It is 419

Yeah, I have known about this for some time. The post reminded me of an incident that happened yesterday.

A fella called me telling me he was calling from a bank I use and that I needed to come and add my BVN again at the bank. He then proceeded to ask for me to confirm some information he was calling out. When I refused, he started sounding somewhat accusatory like, "this is not your account since you cannot provide..." I just ended the call and fired a mail to the bank.

This guy seemed to have access to information that a regular "outsider" shouldn't! Dishonest people everywhere.
