Pegzzyg: It doesn't. Anyone can enter the field (my first degree was in a completely unrelated field for instance) and a master's confers no particular advantage on you, so save those pounds for something more worthwhile. If you must go into HR, go through the CIPD or SHRM route for further qualifications. That's actually more potentially valuable to a practitioner in the field, or at least those memberships are to me. 2 Likes |

walesho: They are absolute trash. I’m taking them to the ombudsman. Let me even give you people the gist. I had to roam my sim cos I was expecting calls from UK, so I paid for 30 minutes to use while in Nigeria. Na so I reach Naija, I was making calls to my bank, bae and mother-in-law back in UK. I was enjoying myself while waiting for 30 mins to finish, I no get alert. Only for me to want to check my EE app and saw bill of £230. I just laughed- It gats be joke. These people use their full chest to charge me £300. Apparently, the calls were per minute, so 2seconds flash counted as 1 min. I didn’t talk, I got back, called EE and asked them how far. They say it’s my bill, I said na lie. That why didn’t they notify me, that it goes against fairness and transparency. They said it’s my business, that I should have checked the app. I now asked them if they gave me mobile data or stop watch. I reminded them that it goes against consumer act (fairness and transparency), that they can’t charge me for what I wasn’t notified of, because it then becomes hidden charges; that’s why bank always notify you when you enter overdraft- they won’t just keep quiet and charge you interest.

Aphrodite007: The easiest way would have been to set a £70.00, maximum limit on that line .......... The only place I would roam my sim, would be on my Europe tours.........

And arguably the best. I pay £20.77 monthly for 100gb data (I barely use upto 50 Cus of wifi) unlimited calls and text. Got 8years loyalty discount with them. Got unlimited data as a thank you being NHS staff Did a random speed check with my mates the other night, EE had the best speed btw 3, giffgaff and Vodafone walesho: 1 Like |

walesho:Same for Giffgaff. Anyways, someone asked for a cheap option for calling Nigeria and using data. IMO, Vodafone is better than Giffgaff, contract or no contract. If you’re scared of contracts and commitments, go for the 30 days contract sim. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Good afternoon nairalanders. I’m back again I applied for my dependant’s visa, I want to upload the documents for the tls appointment, but tls contact is showing ‘this token has been taken’ This takes me out of the original page as if I’m just about to apply. What can I do please? This is frustrating. |

Has anyone encounter an issue with his or her birth certificate in getting a job in UK, my birth certificate has 3 name, but my documents has just my first name and surname, how do I tackle this problem, as my would be employer listed birth certificate as one of the document I need to submit |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Mamatukwas: 5:29pm On Dec 09, 2020 |
Dfazz: As long as both names also appear on your birth certificate I don’t see why this should be a problem. Has anybody complained? |
