When Was The Last Time You Were Sent Money From The USA? How Did You Receive It? by ibinaboonline: 4:24pm On Feb 24, 2021 |
This thing don tire me soootey. Since January this year, my employer in the US is unable to pay me, not via wire transfer, World Remit, or TransferWise (TransferWise has ceased operations in Nigeria). We’re quickly running out of ideas but I find it strange that this is happening. I do have a dollar account with Ecobank. I wonder if Ecobank is to blame, however, the company also tried to use World Remit’s Pickup option which does not require a bank account. Still, no way. So, the problem shouldn’t be with Ecobank. They even tried Western Union yesterday but the system rejected it and directed them to pay in-store, which is a huge stress for the company. Have you received money from the USA recently? How did you do it? |

Last Saturday I Gat Some Dollar From A Bussines Transaction Off A Darknet Account. Ask My Client ( US Dude) To Send It As Bitcoin. Next Two Days I Transacted It To My Nigerian BTC Vendor And Gat My Bank Alert. I Dont Care About CBN Santions Because Guys Are Still Investing In BTC.

Let your employer send the money(in $/€) into your Transferwise US/UK account. Then sell to exchangers in Nigeria. 2 Likes |

Even if bitcoin were still a thing I wouldn’t choose it. My reason is that it’s equivalent would be remitted to my account as opposed to nowadays I can get my money in $ and exchange it at a better rate on the streets. PHijo: |

ibinaboonline: You can make enquiries if transactions work between Nigeria and Europe. If you have somebody you trust over there he can send it to the person and the person sends it to you. |

Very risky. That’s my last resort. I do know one or two people. But this isn’t a one-time thing so it’s better to find something that works so that I won’t keep doing it through people. Just to avoid stories that touch. You know what I mean. PHijo: 1 Like |

ibinaboonline:Register n verify on Transferwise, You will be given a dollar/euro account details. Give the account details to your employer to send ur money(in $/€/€). Then sell the money (using escrow) to an exchanger in Nigeria to receive your money in naira. It's what I use 1 Like |

Re: When Was The Last Time You Were Sent Money From The USA? How Did You Receive It? by Tenshades(m): 7:30am On Feb 25, 2021 |
ibinaboonline: You just have to supply your payer with the US bank account number and routing number given to you by Payoneeer after you've successfully registered and verified necessary requirements. You get paid in $$$$ and cash out to ur local bank acct in naira. |

Probably won’t work anymore. Dollar to naira conversions has ceased in Nigeria. Must withdraw in foreign currency and exchange it yourself. Sounds like Payoneer don’t work that way. Tenshades: |

Hi. Hope you can still read this. So, TransferWise informed me that they do offer the $ & £ accounts you recommended. However, they added that while I can receive funds in said accounts, they're still unable to transfer them to a Nigerian bank account due to the new CBN policy. Lyydia: |
