Western Union Discontinued At Gtbank Plc by docjuli(m): 11:09pm On Oct 09, 2013 |
GTBank has stopped Western Union services. No date for the recommencent was announced and no reason was given. While on the other hand (actually my left hand) FCMB insists receivers must have a bank account with them before payment can be made using the undisputed 'prevailing' Dollar rate. But why?¿? 1 Like |

What would it have cost them to send mails oe sms to their customers intimating them of this development? Cusomers only find out on getting to the bank. Very backward way of business. 10 Likes |

Its not only gtb oo. Even your friends or family cannot send you money from abroad atm until further notice. I read online that there is a present shutdown on western union and they won't send transactions overseas. I guess its to prevent some scams from taking place. But I hope western union starts working again cos niggaz are broke ooo |

The annoying thing is they still got the WU banners in their banking halls. They should hide those banners too till further notice! 4 Likes |

Idk how true that is but that is what I read so far about it.Oct first? I sent money on Wednesday through Western union and the recipient collected it on Thursday with no problems. Sent another yesterday as well I sent from the UK, so perhaps it has to do with the country you are receiving from. In summary, Western union is still active. 1 Like |

yep, went to a branch on thursday, and the lady just said it's not available. Had to go to first bank who ate my 3 naira 75 kobo cos they paid in Naira. |
Re: Western Union Discontinued At Gtbank Plc by Nobody: 11:01am On Oct 12, 2013 |
Infomizer: Due to the new CBN regulations you can only receive the naira equivalent if you are sent any money from abroad. That is, no more dollar or pound payout. And if you are paying for goods/services abroad you pay the naira equivalent, which the bank will do on your behave. That your domicilliary account is now useless. Any transaction you do now will always be in Naira even if you are buying meteors from Mars! 3 Likes |

Re: Western Union Discontinued At Gtbank Plc by mrkels(m): 11:08am On Oct 12, 2013 |
Yes, got the mail since september. Its to put an end to these scams. Now to collect you should have a bank account and also proper kyc must be in place. They also want to regulate the naira exchange rate. I see better things coming from this in the future . |
