Same here. I was offered a £500 CC when I started banking with them but I refused out of fear/not understanding the way CC works. After I had gathered info on this platform and from others, I went back, applied and was offered a £2k CC and £4k OD.
If I may ask, what year was this? Did you apply for it online or in branch?
They keep referring back online and won't do it for me in branch.

Open another account to run parallel, push funds to said account and enjoy your overdraft.......

Overdraft is like a loan, so it builds your credit profile.......

[b]Good morning Everyone!

Please i actually need your kind response to this few questions I've got.

I currently reside in Nigeria. Am an Engineer who has had above 5yrs working experience in the telecom industry with a few certifications from Amazon.

I desire to join the UK workforce. What exams or other recommendations can someone share with me that will give me a clear cut edge and help reduce wastage incurred with Agents and all.

Do I need to join any UK professional body (for Engineers)?


Will appreciate your responses.

I have Naira and need pounds by the way, we can meet in person to clear any doubts or do video calls for ID verification. Funds must be sent from ur personal account and will be sent from my personal Acct too matching details on the verified ID
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by beryour(m): 10:54am On Jul 21, 2020
Is your certification from Amazon AWS based? If yes, then you have a great opportunity.

If not, that will be the exams/certifications you could look into....alternative is Azure.

I do not understand incurred wastage with agents as you do NOT have to pay anyone to get a job.

Good luck!
