Good day everyone,

Please can anyone recommend a travel insurance company for a visiting parent from Nigeria?

On the payment page after filling the form, I didn't see the Priority option, I can only see the standard option, at what point will I see the priority option?

Timitempah:


It is available.
£220

My advice, you should select Abuja TLs.

Can you suggest like how much in pounds should be in the sponsor account, if the person visiting from Nigeria is staying for about 3 months?

tushqueen:


Yes you can, you only need to show your payslips, bank statement, evidence of relationship, tenancy agreement and a few other things

After the month listed on your school enrollment letter as the end of your program. i.e if your school letter states Sept 2021. You will start paying 1st Oct, 2021

TheOnly123:
Hello Guys, please at what point does a student who has finished his/her course start to pay council tax?

Is it once project is submitted?
Is it once result is out?
Is it after graduation ceremony?
Is it after the student visa expires?

Or if there are any other scenario asides the above, I'd like to know when one needs to start paying.

Good Evening UK neighbours
Please what document(s) can a student and the dependant use to invite one of their parents to the UK from Nigeria?

Also, will using a one-bed apartment as the address of the couple cause any issue with the visa application?

I appreciate help from our seniors in the house

For those that have travelled to Nigeria recently, Which of the private lab centre in Abuja is reliable for the COVID PCR Test? I just need a good recommendation before paying for the Day 7 test in Nigeria.

Webmasters / Re: Learn Web Design LIVE On Nairaland!!! by wiselong: 10:54am On Apr 22, 2021
Dear all,

I need advice on the below issue

I was contacted by an organisation to develop a custom web application for their Employee Management system. They mentioned to me that it would be hosted online and they already have a hosting server. According to them, I will be managing the application after development but my concern is how do I protect my source codes from being used by another person since I don't have control over their server? (Note, what they are buying is the solution, not the source code)

Also, they mentioned that along the line they will engage other developers who will have access to the database schema am developing for their solution. The essence of this is to allow the other developers to create other solutions for staff using the same database as the data model.

How do I execute this project completely without the application being compromised?

Thank you

Many Thanks! I appreciate.

Register on the electoral roll with your local council, it's free. Apply for Capital One or Vanquis credit cards, use and pay every month. These companies literally dole out credit cards to everyone, you will be asked to send a copy of your passport and proof of address. I used them in 2010 as a student to obtain my first credit card. You will pay no interest as long as you spend and pay on time every month. However, the day you default or owe them, they will turn you life into an absolute nightmare and might end up ruining you credit file for years.

To save on monthly utility bill is nigh on impossible. It's normal for you to use more energy in winter and less in summer. You might be able to save a bit if you do your research and choose a supplier with low tariffs. If you have a family, just budget £100 minimum a month for energy and forget it there.

Lol, thank you Baba Lexus..
Lexusgs430:



The best way to save on utility bills......... When you leave the bathroom, room, kitchen etc etc.... Turn off the lights behind you........

When you pass urine, don't flush....... When you do a number 2, flush........ When it is brown, let it mellow... When it is yellow, let flow..... cheesy

When stepping out, turn off all sockets and lights..... When it's cold, never turn on the heater (just use duvet, jacket, Longjohn and blanket)..........

When you want to have a bath, only use one bucket of water, use disposable plates and cups......

You get the flow now........ grin


About CS, name on voters list, get a contract mobile phone, pay your bills on time etc etc

Don't apply for debt cards, just yet........

I hope my wise words, are long enough.......... tongue
