I used GT bank and my BVN start with 221 but I just tried the *346# code and I was told that my data does not exist

Log in to internet banking and get it there.

The SIM card you have must have been used by someone previously
Maybe the person is dead. The SIM card was recycled and you purchased it. Simple

This is not true. My Wife experienced the same thing with Etisalat. I suspect they are beginning to link data with BVN details.

you can't. Alternatively, go to your bank. Do a print out of your bvn. Your nin is there. Link it with your current number

I was pleasantly surprised when I saw a NIN on my GTB app. So the comments here verify that if your BVN starts with 221 you do get one. My question now is, my NIN is a 10 digit number. The code verification is asking for an 11 digit number.

The NIN is eleven digits, maybe you did not copy it well..

No nin here

I think its numbers that starts with 221 and 222 that have automatic NIN. Mine starts with 222 and I got my NIN via the short code *346#

The NIN was generated via your BVN. However, you need to physically still go to a NIMC office near you and do what they called BVN modification so that NIN can go live and be verifiable else, you will always have the NIN but not able to verify it. NIMC has received BVN numbers starting with 221 and 222 for the first digits and did what they call harmonization. Some got hits and were sent back to NIBSS so it can be cleared while most were cleared to generate the NIN you have now. You can contact me directly on lovedayo@yahoo.com for more information.

Same applies to all those with BVN 221 and 222 that are able to use the NIMC short code *346# to check for their NIN but have never approached any NIMC office for BVN modification.

How true is this?
Mine starts with 222

Dial *346# now and copy your NIN

I think GTB is linking the BVN with the NIN in batches. I logged into my account via browser and saw they've already created a space for NIN. Maybe they will start linking BVN that starts with 222 and 223 this week (I hope)

My bvn starts with 222 and I got my NIN via the short code *346# but I am not so sure about those that 223 as their bvn though..

Mine starrs with 223 and I'm yet to get it. I'll keep dialing the code and checking my account online, hopefully it will be linked soon

Maybe this question has already been answered but it is possible. Most Nigerians that have registered for the BVN have the NIN assigned to them already. But you will need to visit the nearest Local Government or the NIMC office to register officially so that your name will be on the database. If not your NIN will be rendered invalid. Why do you think that there are large crowds at the NIMC office this morning? Many have NIN cuz they have BVNs but they need to register physically to be in the NIMC database.

SEGLIZ:

that sim card you are using is recycled, it's very possible someone else has used it before.
my first even line got lost a few years ago, every effort to retrieve it was futile, mind you line is currently in use by someone somewhere I don't know.
no.. I got it before sim registration began

BVN and NIN use same data. If you have a BVN, you automatically will have an NIN number. It happened to me to. When i needed to correct my date of birth, it changed within 48hrs in the bvn database but that of NIN warranted me to go to their office and I paid N15k. Meaning BVN and NIN dont use the same database.


How do you process your Date of birth changing ? Had a wrong DOB on my BVN but I haven't register for NIN yet. I know they would ask for BVN and all the info will automatically be used for NIN registration. Please explain how you get yours done. I want to change everything. Day, month, year.

I bank with gtbank and my BVN starts with 222 maybe that's why I was able to get mine despite the fact that I have never registered for the NIN.


I have similar experience. I just discover that I have NIN already when I checked my GTB bank balance using *737# and I swiftly visited Enrollment center to validate my registration and collected temporary card.

Is it true that, if i go to my bank and ask for my bvn details, I will see my NIN number in there?

only if your bvn is intergrated to NIMC database to generate your NIN

Bro please, how did u know u had a wrong DOB in your BVN because I tried d ussd code for bvn on my sim, it didn't bring up d bvn, although I know my BVN
I would like to check if d phone numbers actually correspond, because it dosent come up in d ussd code.

Network providers should be assisting government in fighting insecurity in the country. They have customers data yet they can't trace the location of those bandits

When I went to do register for my national ID card, the person in charge asked for my BVN which I simply told him I don't have (This is because I knew my BVN data is different from the data in my documents). After getting the nimc slip, I used it to correct my BVN details.

[quote author=Estrella366 post=97257340]Hello Nairalander, I would like to know the circumstances that could make it possible for a person who is yet to visit any of the NIMC offices or outlets either online or offline for the purpose of registering for the NIN get the NIN?

I have never made any prior efforts to register for the NIN stuff, however out of curiosity I tried entering the NIMC's NIN registration verification code *346# via my Etisalat phone number and to my surprise the system returned a positive answer with an eleven digit NIN.

So what are the possible technical reasons for this?

Thanks for your suggested answers.

Update##
I tried to see if I could verify the number on the NIMC website and di scovered that the site is down with message reading indicating




Those who use valid passport to update their seem doesn't hv issue ...voters card , drivers license etc ..cause I checked mine and it's okay whereas I used my driver license to update mine
