tshoboy: The Lycaremit number is not connecting. They have not replied email sent over 48hrs ago. No wonder they are not popular. I tried to register with their website ,but the website is poor. Keeps rejecting documents and not allowing amendment of mistakes. Maybe I will try money fex. |

wallg123:Well if you got that ki and fear or thought in mind perhaps that line of business is not for you,if you remember I stated in my earlier post that sometimes we Nigerians jump into a brand of business we have no clue about all in the name of someone else is making money outta it, however, you int got the required strategy as that person. What I always say is this, we all have a passion, turn your own passion into a money-making business if you can start or if not like my father sticks to working . I will explain I come from a family with the highest number of chatard account in the world , my Dad is chartered so is my younger brother, Now from growing up my Dad has tried his hands on loads of business I mean loads, from Rubber to timber to salt, to lands, cars, transport you name it. One day he sat down and realised that Business is not for all of us perhaps his calling is to use his work skills to better himself and others around him so he remained a civil servant! 1 Like |

Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by mimilyrics: 9:01pm On Dec 02, 2020 |
True about a deposit limit but it's £1,000 cash deposit every 180 days. Unlimited inbound bank transfers. Outbound transfers have 24 hour limits of £10,000. ATM withdrawal is capped at £400 within 24 hours and £5,500 over 30 days. Daily bank transfer and card transactions is pegged at £10,000 each. erico2k2: 2 Likes 1 Share |

Hello Lexusgs430, I am back to say thank you for assisting me with the house search in the Kent area even though I couldn't land any. I eventually got somewhere in Hayes, they were willing to take 6months rent ahead of the Tenancy. Settling in the UK on a Sole Representative Visa for a Nigerian Company has been so tough but all is fine now. I wish I registered on the electoral register as a student during my master. Thank you Thank you Thank you |

Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by mimilyrics: 10:08pm On Dec 02, 2020 |
Different strokes for different folks. Some use it because it gets them easily set up upon getting to the UK, some because of the inbuilt transfer function to international accounts while others use it solely for online transactions or 3rd party payments as they wouldn't want to use their regular bank accounts in order to prevent their banking info from getting into the wrong hands. Many people also don't do much offline cash transactions so it's not really a problem to them. erico2k2: 3 Likes 1 Share |

RalphJean: Thank goodness it's not too heavy on the oyinbo repute levels very typical of Nigerian institutions I think they want people collecting money from the obodo oyinbo to collect it in US dollars so there's more 'demand' for naira and more forex Or so I gathered... Edit: New CBN Circular: CBN confirms only Banks can pay IMTO dollars https://nairametrics.com/2020/12/02/cbn-issues-new-update-dollar-remittances-as-it-ask-banks-to-close-naira-ledger-accounts/ |
