Travel agency did for me, it was 3hrs break in between but i had delayed flight of 1hr in naija so no break at all. Moved straight to board ni

which of the travel agency?

is it advisable to padlock your check in luggage?

Angellaw:
VISA ALERT! Long post o

I left Naija through Qatar Airways on Sunday 29th,(ticket was booked on Thursday after I collected my dependants visa)

You booked directly on the website or with a travel agency?

fificole:
My cousin did use form A from UBA (whenever they had funds) but he said this application for September rent was rejected. The bank said it was an updated policy because many were round tripping funds through landlords/letting agents.

I have searched online for CBN or any banks report on this claim but nothing.......

Will call the banks I intend using then give a feedback.

when you do, please let us know

Mmachisco:
I booked with travelstart as I had issues trying to put the payment on hold using Qatar website.

could you clarify "payment on hold"?

How do we convert to naira on the qatar website?

For long layover at doha, how much is hotel and is one allowed to leave the airport

Have anyone booked with travelstart before?

where do you see the option to pay in naira on qatar web site

leggyb:
I am having similar problems. I paid for my tuition balance at Gtbank kaduna. The bank rejected payment for accommodation. I wrote headquarters, they said it would work provided i am paying both alongside or have evidence of tuition payment previously. Lagos branch Ikeja rejected, Abuja branch rejected, Edo branch (one of them) rejected.

This may mean that a limitation has been placed. Black market my last option.

If i haven't paid tuition previously and I want to pay for just accomodation, they would not accept it? even if it is a school hostel

leggyb:
A. Open a dorm acct with any bank of your choice. Get a dollar card, fund your account with dollar or pounds. You can use your mastercard abroad to withdraw funds. Take note of withdrawal limit and charges on ATMs abroad.

B. You can reserve some money in your bank account, you can also convert your naira to pounds before travelling. Remember to declare the cash you have at hand. I think there is an amount you must declare. Read about money to declare on UKVI website.

if i have a dollar dom account and card, can I withdraw in pounds overseas

Can anyone upload a sample of decision letter and vignette, you can blur personal details.

This decision letter, does it also come via email

efzbah:
.
For those going for collection this week, please take your time to check your vignette well. This has been emphasised here a lot.
I actually checked ours thoroughly (or so I thought) - name, DOB, work permit, etc and only discovered the missing decision letter for one of the dependants. I reported this immediately and was given the UKVI contact slip which I'm yet to get a definite reply to my query. I was told at the collection point that it may be sent via email.

It was when I got home that I saw that of the validity.

If there's an error, and you are still at tls, who do you contact

What is one expected to receive during collection

Not fully true... This is a section that concerns UK, EU and US.
See bro, simply put, you have your full approved vaccination, you can enter the UK after you have done pre-boarding covid-19 test, and also you need a day - 2 test alone, no quarantine, no day 8 test needed. And as you can see from one of my images attached, they recognise the Nigeria National Primary Health Care Card.

I attached some screenshots, even the UK govt tells their own citizen to get vaccinated (with any of the 4 approved Vaccines) where they live abroad and they can come back to do just day 2 testing.
The UK govt generally lifted entry restrictions for fully vaccinated travellers on July 19.

Who has travelled with just day 2 oooo. Help us

Those that used form A recently, what was the naira to pound rate charged?

Callmed:
hi, what is the full meaning of DBS please?

UK certificate of good conduct, in simpler terms.

More info below

Those that used form A recently, what was the naira to pound rate charged?

bemagnify:
I have checked page one and there is no police clearance certificate mentioned, please is it needed?

It is only needed to work certain jobs, like health care or teaching in the UK. Not Always compulsory, but some employers will ask for it. It helps you in getting your DBS

Flight don cost o, any affordable ones for September travellers or students discount anywhere?

For tickets in dollars e.g qatar airways, how do we pay at good rates or na still aboki?

1. Must your covid test from Nigeria have a barcode? If yes, any recommended hospitals in lagos

2. Is it allowed to have your check-in and hand luggage padlocked?

TobyTreasure:
They will take you to a hotel and pick you up few hours before your flight.
The hotel might be in the city or at the airport.
No extra charge for that. 20 hours is too much to wait at transit.

Wow. That's nice. How is this arranged

Optimally:
Flight booked: Qatar airways on travel start 226k, 17h ride transiting through Doha

Directly on the site or through an agency

Gbomzie:
I don't think you're right.
If you read closely, it says vaccinated under the UK vaccination scheme. So, if you got your 2 shots in the UK, you don't need to quarantine. But if you didn't, just buy your day 2 and day 8 tests jejely.

My 2 cents sha

Leave them, when they reach UK border, they will fully understand

Any where in Lagos to do covid test for less than 50,000 naira

hustla:
How did you get accommodation or is it school hostel?

Hostel with partnership with the school

leggyb:
This information is for those considering using form A to make tuition deposit.

I applied for tuition balance payment using form A through Gtbank. I got debited the next day.

Tuition Balance = £1100
Amount debited = N630,386.68

This is about N573 to £1.

All administrative charges and commission inclusive.

I am still looking for a way to pay for my accommodation using same form A. This is far much better, than using black market rates to make international payments.

If anyone has made accommodation payment, please help o

Callmed:
Yep

Thanks. Must the certificate be certified by a court?

for police clearance certificate, do I need to go with the original of my passport?

Is there alternative/ third party method to pay?
