Not like I am defending J and J, but read the actual article.

It is not their baby products that was slammed with a law suite. It was their feminine wash that the woman claimed gave her ovarian cancer, which cannot be proven, because nobody else has come up with this complaint.

I still think it's better to err on the side of caution. It may not be the mere presence of Talcum powder but it's interactions with other ingredients in their products that caused it.

No court would award damages to the tune of $72 million without Just cause.

Nearly 1,500 women who developed Ovarian Cancer after using their products have already filed lawsuits.

It's not just Johnson and johnson oh! Check them other brands too- they contain talc except a few. Plus, before now pediatricians don dey talk am on the use of all ' these products ' on baby's skin especially infants. So my 2 cents check with your peadiatrician and not just any doctor on what's best to use on your baby.

One just has to be extra careful and do research but above all God is our defender.

Not sure 2 weeks is a great timeline. Because thy alwys advise not to reapply until u r sure d reason for denial has been tackled.

Yes it may hv been your seeming unpreparedness dat got you d refusal and it will help if this time you are better prepared. However if drs anothr possible reason them u may need to check that as well.

Women

Not babies.

Maybe we should start an online petition and get everyone affected to sign, start a social media outrage and call GTB to order! We are not paying!!!

I agree. GTB has been totally unsupportive in all this forex drama and to now 'trick' people so to say is just ridiculous.

Give PTA no, permit form A transactions mba, it's only in negative things we'll know them. I'm ready to start the petition sef if you guys are down oh! Cos GTB dey vex me gan. We just need details and some proof, who's willing to provide documentary evidence?

Lol! You seem to be a staunch supporter. The two products affected and referenced in the suits are Johnson's baby powder and Shower to shower. Also babies can't sue can they? Lol

Hey dear, if you're not in urgent need of the Visa it may be wiser to wait a while. If you're not due anytime soon. Wait it out.

@LeakyTribe am interested in the petition o.
Another of their excuse is we are not the one charging your account it's merchant/Mastercard
Got an email saying now it's their system malfunctioning.

how lenght we intended to stay?

how much is it going to cost?
he just said sorry that at this time they are not bla bla bla...........
and he gave us this 214 form blue paper.
Now i want to reapply with our son because its on medical ground am going there to have my baby which is legal, have already paid for visa application. but yet to submit to have the interview date. now my question is, is there anything special that i need to fill because they are not checking any document we took. pls house i need really your urgent advice pls guard me on this and God will help you too ijn. i want to for the interview in first week in march.
thank you and God bless

Hello Madam, I'm sorry about the refusal and I really wish to help put you through with the next application. I'm not a visa guru but I can also b a part of your success story. My seniors here have said that you weren't prepared and I agree cos you didn't demonstrate that to the VO. How soon do you need to reapply?

TheLeakyTribe:


Hey dear, if you're not in urgent need of the Visa it may be wiser to wait a while. If you're not due anytime soon. Wait it out.

I will be due toward the last week in April and I have appointment with the doctor on 14th march.

Kai! See ehn! Start reading. Read this thread page to page. Take notes where necessary. Write possible questions and prepare your answers ( the truth). The reason for writing is so nervousness won't get the best of you. You'll have prepared for each question that comes up.

Write a proper budget. Get documents others have used successfully. In other words be totally prepared and confident.

Then Pray. Pray like you have not prepared. Prepare like you have not prayed. I wish you all the best.

We can copy Mastercard and GTB in the petition and hope and pray that there were loads of people affected because it's people's support and endorsement that can actually make this petition successful. Please anyone else who was affected can you indicate your interest and let's decide how to move forward. Even if you weren't (I wasn't ) we know where the shoes are pinching us right now with all this forex drama. We shouldn't take it lying down.

I de ya back so o!

I think they are being fined for NOT disclosing the side effects of Talc, not that the product has talc.

nefertitiram:


The woman used the talc based product where? Is it not "up in there" she was using the talc powder? Since ma and you were born we have been using talcum powder (abi you no use yardley, avon's far away, pears baby powder sef), nothing do us.

Talc is a part of our everyday life, dey should just leave J and J alone. Boots powder has talc, Chicco sef get talc. Dusting powder na talc. Hian! Oyinbo and dia wahala sef.

Anyways, we are nigerians, just like Zika virus, we don jump and pass. So no worry eh! Our children are immune from cancer

Congrats to you and DW. God is good.

Abeg help tell GTB head honchos that na like this UBA start before people be dey side eye dem, make dem kontinu!!

Actually, when you have been denied once, you get a chance to explain yourself in the form. You may compose something, PM me and let's look at it together. That space is invaluable in stating your case.

In view of being due in April, you need to reapply now, I booked appointment(Lagos) for someone today and the earliest available date is March 21. So do quick. It's definitely worth another try.

Bros , let's take it in nos as enumerated.

1. That 3k budget won't work, even for birthing centre, moreover you can't predict with pregnancy, better safe than sorry....

2. Informing the embassy is not compulsory as long as you are well & able to bear the consequence of any fallout from such action/inaction.

Now let's be serious, houston & chicago POEs are not the kind of POEs to take chances with, both will humble a saint if the CBP one encounters woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

Also , how will you be able to dispel the theory that the journey isn't an intent to be an illegal immigrant? How easy would it be to explain coming to have a baby in a country that touts itself as "Childbirth is EXPENSIVE" with a budget that will give rise to suspicion?...

Methink you should up your budget to 6-7k$ (I know the streets are mean & ain't smiling but be hopeful) at least & also inform the embassy that your wife's situation has changed from vacation to health....

Visa covers both, but Houston POE ain't child's play..

I doubt if any suit will work against Gtbank

Gtbank is the worst bank and im sure even if the money isn't returned, i wish this suit hurts them one way or another.
