ATMs: Automated Thieving Machines?

well GTB as it appears to me, it really sucks because i followed a friend to a GTB bank at ijebu where they have no ATM i guess, let me show u how u use your ATM there,

Go to the cashier, give him/her your ATM card, and they he/she is gonna ask u a question, like, what is yo name, if u get that rite, u are on, shit they didnt even bothered to ask for the pin, what if i went there with someone elses ATM and i mastered the name? i guess that person don enta konga be that cos i him/her account balance will be  unfavourable at the end of the day , this s**t is true, i am an eye witness of it!!! GTB ATM sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!and if you dont believe, just holla at me with your atm, i dont need  your code, then 2days after, go and count your blessings on your bank statement you go hear weih!!!

One thing with Nigerian banks is that some branches are more equal than others so please don't just go to the nearest branch to you but rather move down to one that is operational in all terms. I have not used my Intercontinental Bank ATM in their branch here in UNIIPORT but the two times I used it at their main branch at OLU OBASANJO rd it was cool.

i once lost 5k via an atm machine. it happened i was double charged, though i never tried to claim back the money.

It is quite obvious that people are not well informed about the process flow of ATM transaction.Although, it is a new development and all sort of issues that are enamating from its use are being address accordingly.I do hope that everything will soon be fine-tune to meet the required standard.It also depends on the link of the particular bank that you are using their machine,if their link is good, the flow of the transaction will be good as well.But if otherwise the transaction may be aborted or failed.But as we all know GTB is one of the leading bank in technology because they rarely have a down time unless the maintanance work is being carried-on on their system.But all the same sha,we've started it we will soon reach the promise land.


Cheers!!!

hello, i'm sure most people have stories to tell concerning these ATM scams, however to add my own contribution im willing to send a free copy of my ebook on How to protect urself from scammers, ATM scams are inclusive, just send me an email depicting your interest @ iustusinmaria@yahoo.co.uk, take care

Experienced this incident of 50k with UBA's ATM machine but i got my cash back, good customer service too.

If you have any ATM issue,i suggest you call your banks general cust serv numb,don't just sit back thinking your local branch will handle the situation-might and might not work.

i didnt know the atm's and retrieving your bank cards back were difficult in naija,if funds keep going away from your account(the way it is in canada),first make sure its your bank ATM then u know they will not charge you for withdrawing.also banks tend to charge their customers every first of the month for using your account and the ATM's, Also check your account type,some allow a number of transactions or withdrawals monthly(say 25 a month),passing this limit can mean they are charging u everytime you use it after the limit

GTB ob me of 55,000 naira through their stupid ATM. we do not have laws in this country for the poor. I think this ATM thing is a way to rob innocent people thrugh ICT. Nigeria Banks are now involve in Financial Yahoo-Yahooo.
For more than 6 days now, my money has not been restored they keep tellling me it is network problem.

I use the ATM to make withdrawal 2ce and my money was not dispensed instead my account was debited 55,000 naira and I contacted the bank but for 6 days now my money has not been returned, they keep complaining about network problem.

Na wa o.
