So many things,
Just like reddit we can start with restrictions for newly created s that start spamming every section 1 minute after creation.

The interface is fine ( functional), we really just need more features.

Also s should have badges, been on NL making meaningful contribution for years should count

Seun:
Hello Guys,

I'm throwing this question to you because it's very important. Every time I ask, "how is Nairaland?" I'm told that it is fine. If I ask what are the challenges I'm told there are none.

So I need to talk to you guys directly about what you think is going on and what you want us to do. I have not had the confidence to make major changes on Nairaland. I have a little confidence now because of AI.

What are your complaints, your challenges, your issues. What are the things that can drive people away and need to be nipped?

Speak your mind, but don't be rude. Thanks.

SemperFid:

Great place. I'm in gcu

Kimkoarda:
So I’ve been complaining about not seeing any collection mail since 24 dec which I got my visa and I did biometric with TLS.
I decided to go to VFS today lo and behold it was there

Planning to book my flight

You still had to go pick it up after paying for courier?

Deejah16:

adexeli:


I have. It took less than 30 minutes after completing all steps

Mine just shows submitted. What did you put in the brp section?

Has anyone linked their evisa to ukvi ? Please how long did it take ?

great289:


I paid for a courier service, I received a message they have dispatched my port to courier. And no information about the courier they used or tracking number or anything

Same here

academicjosh:


You had better believe that it is possible.
I did my biometrics at about 1:20pm on Thursday 12 December 2024 and got my visa approved on Monday 16 December 2024. Received the email at 12:07am on Tuesday 17 December 2024.
See attachment.

Better leave the doubting thomas; abeg did you do courier or pickup; got courier notification on Tuesday but haven’t received it (I’m not based in Lagos). When did you get your port back?

great289:

academicjosh:
Visa Alert

Biometrics December 12th at VFS Abuja
No NSF mail
No Interview
Received success email at 12:07 am this morning, Dec. 17th.
Next stop; Bolton

Thanks for the helpful contributions.

Success to everyone still expecting their Visa.

This is literally someone else that also did bio on 12 and got visa on 16th/17th

Oggg:


I genuinely feel sorry for those who will be misled concerning STANDARD APPLICATIONS.
You completed your biometrics on December 12th, and while your files hadn’t been transferred to UKVI by the 13th, they printed your vignette on the next working day, December 16th.. UKVI has really been put through a lot.

Pele o Visa Officer 🤣🤣

tunafishbabs:


Please how soon did you get the port after collection mail. Did you do courier or pick up?

I did courier return plus; I haven’t gotten it. I think they use DHL. Got notification that it has been dispatched via courier on Tuesday.

Oggg:

3 hours later. No evidence lol

You can’t be serious; I should my details to convince you?? LMAO, believe whatever you want to.

Oggg:


You did biometrics on Dec 12th and December 16th you got visa with standard application… your dodo has burnt.

What dodo; literally about three folks posted same on this same thread. Omo the kind mentality you get ehn,

Oggg:

Show proof it was standard and have your visa. U did biometrics on dec 12th standard and received approval the next working day… turn the dodo.

See brain wey you dy use cross road. So 16th is the next working day after 12th

Oggg:


12th of December? Standard? You nor serious.
If you get a decision before January 7, 2025 then please say good prayers to your maker.
There are 3 public holidays inbetween your 15 working days as well as reduced services generally during the Xmas period.
Just go and wait.

Whats the derogatory remarks for? I did mine same date and got visa approval on 16th. Different strokes for different folks; you don’t have to generalize

alozieanselm202:

Impecca:

I don't have POF already. Am about to start today or tomorrow. Pls advise me, I heard resuming late affects d chances of getting Post Graduate work permit

Check with your school the financial document submission deadline. If it’s more than 28 days from now; you are good.

I think it’s possible if you have pof already

Impecca:
Good evening house, please I got an offer for Wolverhampton through an agent, I applied for ission Deferral to May 2025 but it was Shifted to September 2025 instead. because its Msc Public Health and only open for January and September Intakes

Now, I have raised substantial amounts to enable me sort out the payments and I have mailed the school to let them know I am ready to proceed with the January 2025 Intake but they haven't replied me.

Also do u guys think I will meet up with my deadline if I make deposit on Tuesday 3rd Dec?
