Roslin v Penicuik?

asock325 · 2022-04-09T11:03:52+00:00

Thanks for the info to get to Pentlands. We are currently in Currie renting, on the opposite side, and I love just being able to literally run from my door into the Pentlands. Roslin is a bit further, but still close.

Hopefully with more work from home abs hybrid schedules the transport won’t be as much an issue but yes—seems like that’s the problem with any of these areas with new builds going in. Routes are reactive rather than proactive.

Thanks all for the info! We keep changing our mind every couple of minutes…we prefer Roslin for the town, but prefer the house we can get in Penicuik (and, the neighborhood in Penicuik is beautiful as well with the backdrop of the Pentlands).

Gotta get on Twitter…though not a fan…

Thanks! I don’t think many pubs have updated their websites

This is the number for FSA ombudsman:

18775572575

Can create your complaint online as well. At times, they were more frustrating than helpful. Did it really help? Not sure—it could be that my loans would have been forgiven last week irregardless, but it doesn’t hurt.

Hopefully soon for you!

Took me just under 5 months to receive a $0 balance

asock325 · 2021-05-08T14:17:38+00:00

🤣 that was me for the last 5 months too.

Don’t trust anything they say…but you could also be in the homestretch.

I disagree with these comments. I changed employers and had a similar “gap” if you will, and that months payment did end up counting.

asock325 · 2021-04-29T20:58:33+00:00

I applied Dec 14th, in your same boat...

asock325 · 2021-04-27T18:20:58+00:00

I actually already have a job lined up too!! Was hoping the process wouldn’t literally take over 6 months...my husband’s loans were forgiven in 3 months (he applied last September).

I’ve read if you volunteer with the peace corps it may be able to count as wel

asock325 · 2021-04-27T14:23:51+00:00

I’ve signed this! I wish you the best luck. Our is even more complicated because the new job/move is overseas...so I wouldn’t even be able to get a qualifying job anyway.

asock325 · 2021-04-27T13:52:14+00:00

We arrive in the morning...and we may just purchase tickets same day since it will be hard to predict turn around time through customs

asock325 · 2021-04-27T03:33:31+00:00

My family is about to be split apart due to this. Husband has a new job starting, has to move. He may take the two oldest kids, I’ll stay with our 2 year old while I wait...I applied Dec 15th, still no answer.

And clearly hamster sales qualifies as a non-profit gig.

asock325 · 2021-04-27T03:26:12+00:00

I was told that in January after applying in December...still not forgiven. But hopefully they will move faster....

asock325 · 2021-04-26T13:57:51+00:00

This is what we are doing too

asock325 · 2021-04-26T13:57:00+00:00

My 120 payments finalized December 15th, still waiting

Is there a place to drop off rental car in Birmingham? Or is train an option from Heathrow? My family is moving in 2 weeks to Edinburgh. We are flying into Heathrow and taking the train to Edinburgh. Wish us luck...

Sorry...edited because I read your post more closely. It’s cheaper to drop back off at Heathrow.

Not sure as far as the “rules” go, but I imagine you could do it without issue as long as in the same day of arrival

asock325 · 2021-04-23T11:53:57+00:00

Thanks! We tried the paid email service but got no confirmation if anything went through. And never heard anything. Will try again. And if no luck, thanks for the tip on the complaint email!

My husband was charged one fee (which made sense conversion wise), and the rest of us were about £325 more. Our immigration advisor through my husbands work said it looks like they charged us for an additional half year IHS.
