First Bank Is At It Again! by saintchibu(m): 8:09am On Apr 09, 2016
I want to start by saying that First Bank (FBN Plc) should rebrand to First Barawo o Nigeria Plc.
I am always at the receiving end of their illegal deduction and it happens when I have small amount for the rainy day left in the account. Thank God I moved my salary account to another bank. If not, I would have wake up one day to receive this kind of alert:
Your Acct 304XXXX609 Has Been Debited with NGN10000.00 On 08-APR-2016 22:33:59 By Fee for receiving your salary. Bal: NGN31, 920.40CR
To cut the long story short, deducted N100 for admin fee in the month of March and later returned it but collected N80 back after some days as SMS charge. Here are the 3 alerts:

Then last night, I got this one:

In those good old days, banks use to pay interest on your savings with them. But today, the reverse is the case. They pilfer, steal and give their Customers numerous charges they don't understand.
It's so unfortunate.
Looking for a place to build my own underground bunker to save my Precious hard earned money.

I received the same deduction alert. But I have sent an email to Firstcontact to know the reasons for such deduction. Planning to go to the bank to file a complaint.
