My Experience Travelling Without Cash by olivia40(m): 1:46pm On Mar 08, 2023 |

The kind hunger wey fire me no be small, because no cash the only place they accept transfer for us to eat, Transfer refused to work I managed reach Abuja on Monday around 6pm, I went to Jabi Park to enter bus to Yola the driver said 11k to yola I said no problem, but I no get cash ooo, na transfer I go give you, the driver said no problem he will accept transfer but the journey is next day so I managed to sleep inside bus that brought me to Abuja , the next morning 6am I don reach park, the next thing the driver change story for me, he said the transport fare is no more 11k but 11.5k I said ok no problem I will pay ,he said but I have to give him 5k cash then transfer 6.5k to him, infact I don’t know when I lost my temper and I started screaming at him, so I left that park to another park Adamawa sunshine. So I entered Sienna for 10.3k On our way no single cash to buy food, unfortunately when we got to Jos around 12 noon the fuel pump of the bus spoil while the driver was busy changing it I spotted a shop so I went to the shop to buy bread and soft drinks and water, the shop has POS na so we slot card in POS point transaction declined money was debited from my account, I asked the guy if I can do transfer from my OPay account he said ok, I sent another N1350, gbagaun my guy no see alert till we left jos, i felt like crying yesterday, so I collected the man phone number and I gave him my account number to send the money to my account by the time he received the alert, Thank God for the man that sat by side in the vehicle , he bought roasted corn he gave me one to eat, so I use the corn take hold body small, when we got to Alkalheri, it a place where all buses stop for people to eat, so I used POS to buy water biscuits and soft drinks, when we eventually got to Adamawa at 9:30pm, na there the worse shege come happen no cash to transport from the park to where am going to stay I was so perplexed and keke can not work after 10pm, The driver of the bus that brought me to Adamawa now helped me halfway I just use Lagos sense take enter motor to my area Futy, when I got down to pay N200 Tfare come be wahala na so me and driver begin drag till I was able to see a shop where the driver had to buy bread and I paid with my ATM card.

My own shege is ten times your own. Imagine reaching bank 8.50am and I'm not on number 1-700 four times across multiple weeks with lots of bills and lack of access to funds As I write I had to remove from ilorin to Lagos just to access some of my cash and multiple failed transfers payments. I lost at last 80 chickens that amounts to 400k because when we needed one or two things no one wanted transfer to get drugs etc. Buhari is heavily chasing me. As I dey type now I have many workers I owe. Nigerian bank access to domiciliary funds js impossible, ontop PayPal lock my funds with over 300-400k for six months. I will stop here. My own shege pass your own ten times 2 Likes |

Mod please this should be on FP, l know lots of people have one or two stories to share as well. It's sad that our government doesn't care about us. No exaggeration, Nigeria is the only country on planet earth 🌎 that is experiencing this kind of problem, Buhari has broken many records. 1 Like 1 Share |

POS operator said they didn't see anything, sometimes you'll transfer they'll debit you without alert... If you use Zenith Bank during weekends, it's always tough ... Kuda sef have started misbehaving... Cashless policy that makes people lose money. 2 Likes |

Even Keke drivers no gree collect am, I resorted to trekking to all my destination within town. It hasn't been a pleasant experience, but on the other way round, I dey train myself for the greater task ahead, feelgoodstuffs, hope you get ? I don already begin the jungle trekking/endurance trekking |

It's an interesting experience. I also traveled once without money hitchhiking. It was an interesting experience but I had to spend one night at a train station. Luckily, I had a book with me and an internet connection to play games here https://www.feelgoodcasino.com. It helped me to kill time and entertained myself for a few hours. |

I actually dont pack too much cash when travelling. I book flights off https://changera.co/ app and also pay for stuff with their virtual card. Makes life a whole lot easier. You'll love this article if looking to do the same - https://blog.changera.co/how-to-travel-without-money/ |
