I was at stanbic head office today, StanbicIBTC is selling for 210 -$1 if you look at that display board you will see we buy at 203 we sell at 210
Most banks are selling for 199.50 it's only standard chartered that I heard that sells for 197 and a 1% commission charge
True that. But STANBIC wahala no be here oh. FX stuff just got tighter with banks this week sha. My wife and sister prebooked for their US trip via their email stuff (submitting all they asked for, since over 2 weeks oh), opened and loaded their accounts with over the naira equivalent of 4000USD to no avail. They couldn't get yesterday and had to buy at the airport yesterday at about 384. They were asked to prebook without guarantees for their end of March UK trip that there was nothing to do about it yesterday. I'm still angry because I feel they went there to be doing ajebo instead of "original area"!

@Chloe7 I will advise you to enter through JFK and take American Airline to Atl for $80 or less that was what I did when I got to the states although you will fly from La Guardia Airport not JFK and stop over in Charlotte,NC.

Yes it was actually resolved by the passengers in Abuja they decided to crowd the tarmac and FG got involved... If you like your luggage don't try Turkish it's less than 40% of you getting it intact.

Spirit airline is cheap but if you have luggage please dont use Spirit because they dont have free luggage check in. you have to pay for your luggage. Spirit is good for someone who dont have any luggage. i took spirit fro texas to Chicago for $35 and it was because i wasnt carrying anything with me.

shocked Thinking it's the 4k they bought each at that rate? No oh! In addition to the small USD they had on them, they got just what will be enough to beat CBP wahala. They got their cards though, no much stress. But na that 210 as PTA win am pass shaa! For my own, kindly give me "expo" on Fidelity oo, plus Zenith, FCMB, First Bank and UBA if available at all. Wish this exchange rate cup and the accompanying palaver will just do and pass by one magic wand like that, not funny at all

I for fear if Na 4k but na still that bank rate win am pass, go to standard chartered open account and request for pta it's better there, if you go to these our regular banks they will say they are not selling, you have to know one Oga Oga at the head office to be precise before you can get on queue, na when e reach you e reach you.

Sabrinaqueenzy jfk is a good poe and less harsh infact the nicest and they usually have little or no questions to ask but it's better you go prepared, the date you filled and the date you are going doesn't matter so far you said NYC and you are showing up in NYC and not another state is okay
As for ticket transit visa may not be issued to you it all depends on them because the wait time is just 14 hours which is pretty long, why not try getting a flight with a less waiting time that will be better for you, I heard of someone who applied for transit visa and he was given a certain category that didn't even allow him get out of the airport which makes no sense, what are the dates you have in mind make I check for you if I can get a lesser wait time, cheers.

It is a meaningless post!
Why do you have to interfere, it's nothing to do with you.
Repeat it is a meaningless post, and the OP should know that!
Criticizing me does not change that fact!

I am not criticising you I am only telling you that you can't just come on here and talk to anyone the way you like please angry the thread is for everyone so don't ask me why I have to interfere again, you need to learn to cut some slacks for some people, you always quote people's post with an annoying command tone what is your problem? Justwise I think you should tell worry this
