Hello

You can apply anytime but I am sure most Uni's are focused on clearing September intake

Can I ask why you are applying through UCAS when you can apply directly to the school?

Cheers

Some universities do not honor requests except through UCAS for Health courses.

@duchess90 @mimilyrics or any other person

Hello

I would say no, treasure bill doesn't have/appear as an investment account, you don't have control over the funds for that set period and some people consider them as bonds. You can't use shares and bonds as evidence for POFs

Here's a link to do some reading

Guys, for those that have gotten PTA,

1). which Airline did you use?

2). After you cancelled your return ticket, were you refunded cash, transfered to your bank or given a voucher and how long did it take?

3) how long is PTA processing time now?

4). Lastly, for a family who intends to travel to the UK together, is it wise to book the tickets separately and process PTA or book for the family together?

I needs answers pls

Unlike our dear country where people look down on other people, in UK everyone is valued and equal to a large extent.

For what I know my wife is a student of Oxford Brookes , been here since last year just got cas for mental health nursing and we applied by ourself without any agent and I know other people who applied without agents, no school will reject your application cause you didn’t use agent , always try to apply early

I want to say a big thank you to Duchess90, Gloriyah, Mimilyrics and everyone that contributes incisively on this thread.

Some contributors are not pleasant when they answer people's questions grin. These good women are not perfect but I think they do very well because they show empathy and kindness most of the time.

For now, I have a special admiration for Duchess90 and I look forward to having her personal contact grin (some of us still appreciate good people)

I know some people sometimes ask questions that are annoying grin but please, try to accommodate them or maybe ignore rather than giving harsh responses or responses that are too blunt.


Some people that are not really incisive also form guru and they mislead people most of the time. Why act like you are a President when you are just a Local Government chairman?

I am relatively new on this thread. So, I don't know if we track birthdays of these good people and celebrate them properly. I think it is our responsibility to show them we love and appreciate them.

I will also begin to answer questions I have answers to (at least, my own little way of also giving back). Like I said, I am new here but I have learnt and mastered a lot in a very short period. I also research to learn more.

I have a RARE testimony to share, I will share when the testimony matures.

Once again, thank you to these beautiful and good people. May God continue to increase you in wisdom, knowledge and understanding. I pray that you attain fulfillment in all aspects of your lives.


On behalf of everyone that has learned one or two from your contributions, we love and appreciate you.

I will not forget to mention Justwise the moderator. Thank you bro.





Your points are valid, and about celebrating @Duchess90 @mimilyrics @justwise @aderinola etc I think I buy the idea.

You never can tell how God factor happens. This is a small world and we should be good to people.

Thank you and I sincerely appreciate such rare gems

NB: To add most of these people are ladies with wonderful soul, some still single. Imagine marrying such people who finds joy in helping people, and any kind of people.

Hello guys,

Please are there schools that require you MUST use agent in your application rather than direct applicantion to the school.

Please list such schools you may know so we can do it right.

For example I hear people say Oxford brokes applications must be made through agent?

Please experienced hands should advise.

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: How N-power Sold Batch C Stream 2 Slots For 100k by Ugmama(m): 9:22am On Jul 02, 2022
Jauntybaba:
Early February 2022, Npower shortlisted some number of candidates who were supposed to be the So-Called successful/beneficiaries of the Npower batch C stream 2 programme.

They were asked to go for biometric capturing, after which they will conduct physical verification at their respective state of residence and place them on a monthly payroll of N30,000. As luck would run off them.

In Late May 2022 Npower directed them to make sure they capture their fingerprints on or before 27th of May 2022. As that is the means that enable them to qualify them as a beneficiary.

But after then, the heavy ship capsized, the Npower team went ahead and made changes to everyone’s dashboard on their database and made all Non-Shortlisted Stream 1 and 2 applications who were not shortlisted in the program as “Shortlisted Candidates” but no provision for biometric capturing, so they will carry out their crook plan easily.

After a few days Npower extended the biometric capturing date with an interval of one week, within the period of that 1 week. A friend within my locality called me to ask me if I need an Npower slot. I was surprised and I asked him “is Npower not an empowerment programme?” He said yes it is.

Then I asked him why would a federal government empowerment programme be sold? He said na you no know this country. We both laughed. Then I asked him how much is a slot on the Npower programme goin for? He told me 100,000. Wow 100k you mean? I quickly do the arithmetic 30,000 X 12 =360,000.

Wow it’s not bad to get a profit of 260k. But “selling what is meant for the youths is not right” I said to him. He replied, na you know that one. People are paying already and their dashboards are showing biometric capturing. That is when I knew he was serious.

After a few days the extended biometric capturing date elapsed. Physical verification creeped in, Lo and behold majority of the Shortlisted Candidates were not given Physical Verification Venue. Even when they tried to contact the Npower team, they vividly disabled all means of contact. The physical verification was supposed to be held from June 15 to 25 2022.

But they later extended the date to 29th June 2022 and more people who bought the npower slot for 100k are still lobbied in, they were given physical verification venues while those that got on merit didn’t get a physical verification venue.

When Npower social media handles started replying to shortlisted candidates, they told the merit candidates to go to their local government area of residence for their physical verification. These desperate candidates went to their various Local Government Area and NYSC Secretariat to get physically verified.

But they were all sent back home that their dashboards need to show “Beneficiary” before they will be physically verified. I laughed and realized that “Npower had played a fast one” on the common shortlisted applicants who didn’t bribe their way out.

Until today Npower officials have no empirical explanation as to why the merit Shortlisted Candidates were removed even after biometric capturing and deceiving them to go to their local government area of residence for physical verification.
This is injustice and a slap on the face of a common Npower applicants.

To add to your observation , NPOWER (Batch C stream 1), will in a particular month, pay some beneficiaries and let other people's payment for the month fail and will never pay them again.

No Bank will take charge upfront because rates flunctuates. The only charge that can be taken almost immediately is the TRMs portal charge for approval(which is taken once they approve transaction) before applicants wait on the queue for FX purchase n disbursement.

Then, Why do customers get debited faster, whilst transactions pend uptill 2months?

I don't have answers to your question, as I am about to initiate mine.

Here's my question: where are you now in the process? If you don't mind me asking.


@mannymanny, I have these feeling that smart banks now take charges upfront due to those that move out funds to another bank for the same Form A. Regardless, update us if successful with FBN

Romance / Re: Two Female Bank Cashiers Fight Inside The Bank Over A Rich Businessman by Ugmama(m): 9:06pm On Jun 25, 2022
KwesiSiaw:
Two ladies working at a bank turned the banking hall into a boxing arena as they exchange blows over a rich businessman.


Apparently, one of the lady’s working at the Bank mistakenly took the phone number of the business man who was already dating another lady at the same bank.

The sad part is that the businessman is already married with kids and so I wonder why these two ladies are fighting over him.


The fighting started when one of them decided to confront her colleague about why she took the number of the businessman.

They even didn’t care about the fact that they were on the premises of a Bank. The two Female Bankers fought as if they were on the street.
