accounts.
If possible add the pros and cons of each bank as regards domicilary accounts. Personal experiences welcome!

First Bank Plc

Guaranty Trust Bank

^^^^^^ Thanks

From my experience, it is Diamondbank plc all the way.

Undoubtedly First Bank

stanbic-ibtc bank

standard chartered, especially if you are receiving/sending to standard chartered abroad, takes just about 2 days

how come none of the sanusi nationalized banks is among the list?

GTB will do the best.

Kx:

how come none of the sanusi nationalized banks is among the list?

Those nationalized banks are business.

Diamond and First bank are doing well for me and my family. However, if you intend to be doing regular businesses with the account, you might be someworth frustrated with First bank, as they(1st bank) work very slowly in almost everything we've done with them, but still deliver, as opposed to a much more faster Diamond bank. Don't pull all your string in one. Good luck

Fidelity Bank. Sending and recieving is easier with  SMS alert. commission or charges is low but another good one is GTBank

GTBank.

Their offshore transfers for businesses are very flexible and efficient.

Second to none-FIRSTBANk

Fidelity bank is the best, especially if you are receiving/sending abroad, it takes just a days

GTBank is undoubtedly effective

According to service delivery, Diamond bank, Gtb, 1st bank. . .

Thank you guys for the info. Please keep them coming! It appears from the
posts, First Bank, GTB and Diamond Bank are the top ones for Domiciliary.

How about Zenith Bank? Any personal experience?

first bank plc,

How about the charges and interest rates?

Skye Bank Visa in Dollar or Mastercard in Naira Debit card or Credit card.

GTBank is undoubtedly the First.

GTBANK, its user-friendly, both opening and operating the dorm acnt. I think they partner with citi bank usa. I once did a funds transfer to montenegro, as odd as it sounds, it got delivered within 24 hrs.
Also, they make their code available to you so u can transfer your funds online by yourself.
Did i mention that they're customer friendly? You cant over-emphasize that fact. Once you have a current acount with them, your dorm acnt can be opened within 30 mins, with zero initial deposit.

skye bank is the best,telex always availbale after 6hrs

GTBank

GTBank
And no one else, Gtb is the Baba of dem all.

I think you've gotten the answer to your question.
For international business transactions: Use Diamond, GTB and Firstbank. FBN may be slower but very reliable too.

Just let Zenith be. We had Zenith and Firstbank at my workplace, and GTB had to replace Zenith bank. Human/Customer relationship was below par, very strict facilities conditions et c. You had to struggle for what you will pay commission, interest et c. Meanwhile none of their staff earned close to what we did. So they where simply ignored, with Firstbank dealing with about 95% of our population. They declared that branch unprofitable, never learning that their customer relations was very poor. Now we have two excellent banks having good patronage from us all, FBN and GTB.
