I am sure you feel very bright. Pray that something doesn't render you helpless. I wonder why the average well to do person thinks people in need are lazy.

SweetCunt97:
Atleast women are the ones preventing humankind from going into extinction so you nigerian guys better drop the frustrated attitude and give them respect.

PeacenLove2:


Sorry about your predicament, OP. That bolded part got me thinking because that is something I have observed myself that we seem to have a culture that normally doesn't respect other people's space.

More so with all the awareness, you find even when you try to put a decent space between you and someone, they still cover that space and expose both of you. People aren't taking this thing seriously and I pray and hope it doesnt cost us too much. God, help us because we certainly can't do enough and too many people are just running wild.

what's the bank excuse for not allowing 901 code for transfer to work on phone ?

xcelentattitude:


The sun was burning as hell at 10:15am

kukuma kee me na

What now happened around 1pm

Is either you're lying or you are not saying the truth.

By the way, I stay in FCT too.

Those who should complain about the sun around that period should be those living in Gwagwalada and it's environs.

Hello Nairalanders

This is my little experience with access bank today Garki market road and Area 3 Abuja branches.

Time check its 09:45
I was watching movies and lazying around lol
when March salary hit my phone, and as usual I decided to use my usual *901# code to transfer some funds into my beneficiaries account and boom, it wasn't working, I did it like 10 times and it was showing time out error, I got worried and tried it for the last time and it displayed, number not registered, then I was shocked because that's is the same phone number I have always used in making fund transfers and bill payment, then many thought was running wild in my head.

I picked up my self and dashed out to the bank, I arrived the bank at 10:15 am and I meet a crowd and they were observing zero social distancing outside the bank and I was given number 305 :I
I was like kuku kill me, and the sun was burning like hell,

I decided to check out another branch at area 3 garki abuja and I met crowd waiting hopelessly outside I was like what da hell, this is not even day one yet of the covid 19 lock down and it felt like the world is already collapsing ,

I decided to collect another number to wait for my turn and I was given 173, funny enough big men and women with fast cars ain't given number, they just come and walk right in, and the rest of us outside will be raining insult on the security people

It ain't funny though, after what felt like forever, it got to my turn and I did all my transaction and left, time check 2:55pm

Guys the coming days will be very rough, I advice you all to go withdraw all the money u can and restock your kitchen, it will get to a point when it will become almost impossible to make withdrawals as average Nigerian will not want to save but withdraw these coming days and the bank will use network as an excuse not to load money in their ATM or pay through the counter.
Mode abeg move to wider audience to create awareness.

P.s other branches of banks are closing down, it's only few that was left open according to my observation.

SmartyPants:


Are you trying to collapse the economy sir?

erico2k2:

in the few coming days ur worries should not be Money, The C virus is real

What of th es bank staff staying and working even through The pandemic dong u think that they are afraid and have families..... man up and atop being childish.

Lockdown means nothing without testing, isolating and treating infected ones.
We need mass testing for Covid-19 virus in Nigeria. Not Lockdown alone.

Brace up everyone. Winter is here.

9jaRealist:


Let me get this...

You went to a bank in the midst of a viral pandemic...
You and others were made to wait outside for the safety of staff who didn't sign up to be killed.

You had the sun beat down on you in Nigeria in March...
You and the rest of the ADULTs outside CHOSE not to observe social distancing.

At the end of it all...
You got your money and left. Okay, carry on...SMH

Apparently some folks think that these are normal times and it's normal operations for businesses and banks. SMH

read that loud to your family members

phransix2:
We don't actually practise banking in Nigeria... Banks that will deliberately load N1K notes in their ATM and u can't withdrawal more than 10k at once just to make sure they collect that charge for using their ATM. Nobody is checkmating these guys...

Nicklaus619:
Well it was because I got salary alert and needed to send money to my family
I tried the code it wasn't working and so I went to the bank, ordinarily I wouldn't go to bank today

Coldie:
To me some cities have no business locking down. But u guess everyone wants to form busy

Punctual:
I'm currently concerned about those who doesn't earn salary, who depend only on daily income. Please is there anything our government is doing to help this one's?

zicoraads:

Yeah... I remember back then, one could actually withdraw a whole lot of money. Now one can't withdraw more than 10k at once.

Toluprazzy:
You seem to me like someone who is young so you should get this. You should have ATM, USSD and Bank mobile application and let traditional banking be. How can you dry yourself for hours simply because you want to withdraw. All three options cannot fail at the same time bro.

And some people are here rubbing your ignorance. If I worked in a bank, i wont go to work. Do you know the number of customers they are exposed to everyday?

And you said rich man entered? Helllllllloooooo...before nko?

Access Bank isn't a Bank,i closed my diamond account when they merged with access

There is alot of account numbers posted today online. Even if you want to help, who do know is genuine?

9jaRealist:


Abuja receives people from all over Nigeria and the world (until the airports were shut)...
It's thus a veritable petri dish for an imported viral pandemic such as Covid-19. Definitely needs a lockdown, isolation and distancing.

I sometimes find this "widows" funny. Nobody thinks of widowers, only widows. Women, learn to find something to do, so as not to be totally dependent on your husband. When he's no more, you can move on with life easily.

AMvanquish:
@ OP. You would have calm down and give it some time. It would eventually work, they usually have this downtime esp end of the month as I have noticed...
GTBank disappoints me like this too month ends but I give it some few hours and try again
