iboboyswag: Of what use would that be, when your pension largesse is pumping in and your village people in Nigeria, decide to snuff one's life or continually extort ......... One cannot spend his/her working life in a society that works, then at your point of retirement, when you are more vulnerable and require safeguarding, head to society that does not work ......... 10 Likes 1 Share |

Khalifa99: I'm so sorry you had to pass through this. Reach out to both Banks but you might have to start setting your mind on the fact that the money is gone. You said "stay away from Nigerians" and I warn it might not be the solution. Scammers are everywhere, not just among Nigerians. We need to be extremely careful and think this through deeply whether with Nigerians or any other Nationality especially when transacting with someone we met on Whatsapp, Gumtree, Facebook, etc even Nairaland! Heck, you can even be scammed on this very thread, be that suspicious! For instance, I don't Exchange money with someone I don't know or on a platform without a Regulator. I use CBN approved apps like WorldRemit, Sendwave, etc (there are probably up to 50 of them) to convert my Pounds here to USD in Nigeria, either in my Access Bank USD Account or for someone to pick up at a Bank branch(never done this). I then transfer to my trusted aboki in Nigeria (who just happens to be an Alhaji with the best rates ever). And voila! In a matter of minutes, I convert my funds and CBN even dashes me N5 per Dollar. The rates are not that bad, last week, £1,000 converted to N755k so N755 per pound. So sorry, once again, we learn daily. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

HondaLover: Well, in addition to what Lexusgs430 said, and I risk repeating some of his points, you don't have to do care job. There are other casual jobs like Warehouse, Factory, Call centre, Data Entry clerk, etc. As for Professional jobs, if you are good in Data Analysis and Digital Marketing, there are a lot of opportunities and many of them are Remote jobs or outside London too. Get a car, don't get a car: your choice. I won't advise you rush into getting one but they're quite affordable so you can if you want to. It depends on where you live, availability of parking space in your accommodation and available public transportation. Bicycle is a good option. You can get a used one for as little as £60 and a brand new one for as low as £200. You can even get an electric one for like £600. And you can take them on trains or even buses (smaller foldable ones) so with a bicycle and train ticket, you can travel to anywhere in the UK. No tax, no fuel, just sheer manpower. The delivery jobs are a little scarce in smaller Towns now compared to Covid era. Your question about sponsorship job, "ayam not understanding". All in all, one step at a time, enter UK first, you will definitely figure the rest out, you even have soft landing with your wife's job. Some people came here on Student visa and a year later, they had paid their £15k school fees and are earning 6 figures income as a Couple. The Job market is that good now for Tech if you can prove you know your stuff. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Call to have this changed ASAP. There’s some evil that can be done with your NI if it’s delivered to a wrong address. Beware of identify theft and fraud in the UK Suzam: |
