Zenith Bank Plc, one of Nigeria’s most innovative and service focused banks has announced an upgrade of its *966*0# account opening USSD string to now support account opening with just your BVN (Bank Verification Number) and date of birth.

*966*0# is one of the offerings available on Zenith Bank’s *966# EazyBanking; a service that enables the bank’s customers to perform electronic banking transactions with any phone (smart and feature) without needing data. Such transactions include airtime purchase, money transfers to zenith and other bank accounts, bill payments, debit card restriction, account opening and lots more.

With this new upgrade, Nigerians can now open a Zenith Bank account with zero naira, receive their account number and start performing transactions in a matter of minutes, without having to visit the bank for documentation. Account opening requirements via this service are simply your BVN and Date of Birth.

A web version of this offering is also available on the Bank’s website www.zenithbank.com, where people only need to select the Instantly Activated Account option and provide their BVN and date of birth to open a fully active Zenith Bank Account with zero Naira.

does Diamond bank code work for anyone? i have been trying it but it doesn't work

I hope they won't come and say my closing balance is 2k o

Punters should take note.

I knw the account opening must have one hidden 'comma' and one will need to still enter the banking hall to rectify it. Make dem no dey bobo us jare.

So u can now open zenith bank account with zero naira.
Remember long ago when I wanted to open zenith bank account and say they say say minimum is 1 million naira.
I just went to GTBank and opened an account at zero naira

In 2004 just to reactivate my account which entered redundancy while away, I was asked to reactivate with a deposit of 250k . That was what ended my banking with Zenith till date. I also avoided GT Bank thinking they are in the same class until early 2015 I was approached with GT Bank form on the street. I immediately invited other 6 partners to join for easy intra bank transaction.

GTBank got this long ago. *737#

The same Zenith that required a minimum of 40,000 some years back before one could open an account with them.

stale.... WEMA bank has it on its ussd. Even ALAT the first digital bank by WEMA bank has it too

No be lie, I opened one on Friday, and from the message they sent me, I still need to enter their nearest branch to regularise the account with my passport and other documentation.

Zenith all the way. Zero opening balance and zero minimum deposit. Best bank in Nigeria
