Banks in the country have increased Automated Teller Machine (ATM) charges to customers by 50 percent to N150 per transaction.
In addition, banks where customers already have account now charge N50 per transaction, as against the free services they usually render. Nigeria is a sad country. That means if you use ATM once in day to withdraw money; the bank makes 150*30days = N4,500 from you. So what happens if your Salary is only N20,000.00 This is criminal. It is a scandal that all Soludo's reform can achieve is to suffer the people instead of make life better for them. http://www.businessdayonline.com/banking/14472.html |

okkkkkkk ???I don't see a problem here!!some cities/states in other countries charge as much as $3.50 for an ATM withdrawal, do the math, in a month or per transaction or per fixed amount withdrawn? and which countries and states are these before you start supporting 'DAY-LIGHT' robbery. I live in OLD europe and I don't get charged by my BANK for using my ATM either per transaction or monthly. This new measure of N150 per transaction is criminal. |

Per transaction, basically it depends onthe bank, ATM, its location blah blah blah, but I live in PA and the most i was charged for a withdrawal was $2.50, I went to MD and was charged 3.50, there is no stipulated amt banks r to charge for ATM transactions
in a month or per transaction or per fixed amount withdrawn?

I don't believe you and I will cross check this. Back to Nigeria: It is simply criminal and cheap well to improve the Bank's Balancesheet. robbing You for a service the provide??or robbing You for using their product? robbing you for BOTH. |

I doubt if you know the interest rate Nigeria banks are charging,they collect N100 every month for having ATM card now one is going to be charged for N150 for using ATM.Nigeria banks have hieghest interest rate for every loan you take . |

I'm directing these comments re Mexican ATM's but the booklet just lists the fees and charges as "International Services". CB (Citizens Bank) charge for ATM use is US$2.00 per transaction. There is also a 1% ATM charge for cash withdrawals and a US$3.00 fee for currency seem you don't read what you quoting. It says 'INTERNATIONAL'. Answer me if you can: Are you saying if you withdrawn $20 in your bank ATM in PA, they will charge $2.50?? |

honestly, this banks are just taking a piss
when u get robbed and u get slapped as well, that is a tad bit too far
one reason why i wont open any account in nigeria whilst i continue to live abroad
people would be better off burying their money, security or no security, it is better than have banks MUG u daylight of your own sweat!
