I think my above comment is appropriate

Indeed, it would be a shame for a good rant to go to waste.

Yor reply makes no sense....

This thread makes no sense... I wonder why...

Maybe because it is a year old?

[Fandango 1,439]

Yeah he figured that out a few days ago, Bethanie

Did you really have to revive this one year old thread?

Hmm.. guess didn't realize it..I thought it didn't make sense..

I showed them my U.S. Passport and ofcourse when they were searching my luggage they found my Nigeria Passport and thats when they saw some old printed copy of resume (CV). So with a U.S. Passport I will still have to pray before getting into UK? Meanwhile I have been there before for like 2wks holiday.

Now my option is to get a visa. I'm thinking of getting "Holiday Working Visa" how easy that to get I dont know.

Oh, so you *were* planning to work on a tourist entry. Sounds like the UK border agent did his/her job.

Truthfully, I wasnt going there to seek any work. But since they have made a claim and I feel like I have no option than just get the working visa to be able to visit. I travel most times, I even have project in another country to go to in April or May, I have no intention to do any work in UK, I'm self employed. And by the way, I do have company I'm providing a service in UK already, that I work for from U.S. So the whole thing about working there or not was just so funny to me. Even from U.S. I'm already working with UK establishment.

I was just going to be with family in UK and they wont take it for truth and I dont know what else they want me to tell them. I realise that the working holiday visa thing is just something you hold just in case later you plan to work.

The job of immigration is to ensure you will return home and you will not work/stay illegally in the UK.

If you brought your C.V with you (why?) you will be suspected of one of the key areas they want to prevent. Try again and this time don't bring your C.V. Did you have a particular reason for bringing 2 passports and a CV? (not sure if it's a legal requirement or not)

US immigration would have taken the same steps I imagine were it the other way around. If you want to try and make this into a "hate crime" as you called it, rather than accept your mistakes in this matter (if you were going to try and work it is NOT LEGAL unless you have the correct visa, whoever you are) then it's up to you but I can't see where you have got this idea from.

I don't think I can handle another thread bump here. Not.one.more.

Bringing some things back from the dead would be considered a miracle! Sadly, not the case here. Just plain annoying.

This is precisely why I think threads of a certain age should be deleted.........

Or at least locked from future posts if there is some valuable info within said thread that might be of use to others.

Unfortunately, there is also another option--we post a "continuation" or "recontinuation" thread--and consider the original as closed (I've done that with the "Movie Pong" threads).

erm, what purpose would a continuation thread serve? OP is long gone.
