GtBank is worse; they sing " where is your atm" every time you try to withdraw across the counter..

If they want us to use internet all the time, why have a banking hall? They can as well close all branches and contact their customers via email

My bad exprience with Access bank customer service yesterday. I took a night bus from lagos to abuja when I got a message that I should proceed to kaduna for one or two reason, I have family members living in kaduna but was not having much on me to buy some gift for my brothers and inlaw, so I decided to follow the bus I took from abuja to command junction, after then a keke to kachia Road.

I got to the bank trying to get a withdrawal slip, I could not find one and i approach a lady to ask "may I know where I can find the withdrawal slip" and she said to me don't u have an ATM. She just angrily directed me to another lady, and she too asked me rudely; where is your ATM. I said I was travelling and I ran out of cash and I am in need of money but she told me i can't withdraw with the slip and I should enroll for another ATM. I told her i can't and after that I requested for a transfer form then she directed me to another lady.

The lady @ the transfer deck asked me what kind of phone I am using to which i answered Nokia 206. After some minute of filling the form, I asked her the time I will receive a notification and she said she can't say but it has been done.

MY OBSERVATIONS And REASON FOR PORTING OUT
1. They all lacked politness and courtsey
2. They don't value their customer
3. Non challant attitude
4. Poor customer experience and engagement
5. They all don't care if u stay or leave

Yet, many will claim that it is because most of the counter staffs are not well paid. We lack customer service however, you could have taken a step further to speak to the branch's head of operations about her staffs' attitude. There is no crime in choosing not to use your ATM card to withdraw and I guess the staff don't know they are in the bank because of customers.

When they are being paid peanuts and expect a million dollar service from them. Nigeria workers are not motivated by their employers that's why you experience poor service from them. And the few that are calm and giving their best just doing due to connections or whatever they expect from it. Sorry for the discomfort @OP

What will happen if they pay them higher? They will beat up customers because most Nigerians reason with their bank account and not with their head..Nigerians are proud people my man

Are they forced by their employers to keep their jobs? If you don't like the pay, then take a walk out of the organization. It is not about pay, it is just sheer laziness and impoliteness by the staff of the bank.

my brother i know the first lady you talked about. She is very fat same with the other lady. The rude lady was rude to me too one time like that because i wanted to check my bank balance. She is fair in complexion. Access bank needs to sack her.

I stay in karkuri. That lady is bad market for the bank.

Access bank is running a campaign on increasing the number of customers that use their atm and mobile app. All branches have a target to reach, that's why they are hoarding their withdrawal slip to coarse customers into getting an atm card and signing up on their mobile app, that was why she asked you the phone u were using when you refused to get the atm card. The Access bank I had a stint with don't joke with their customers, channel your complaint through the right source and it'd be treated asap. Sorry if you felt bad the way you were treated the bank.

I opened a current account with Access Bank about three weeks ago and I am yet to get either an ATM or cheque book. I was told my references couldn't be verified (despite getting an Access account reference). I supplied another reference and the story is the same. The account is open to deposit, but closed to withdrawals and I put in something substantial in the account, but I don't have access to the funds.

Tomorrow morning, I'll go to Access Bank and inform them that if my account is not operational by Friday, I'll write formally on Monday with my letterhead to close the account. Let them reply me and put their useless reasons in writing and I'll reference it as an example of when slothfulness costs you customers.

Pity that's the trend in most of our Nigerian bank these days.. Maybe they are Frustrated... I can't say.
They seems to enjoy "pushing" you from one person to another.

I had similar experience at a first bank branch the other. But one of their Elderly worker intervene .

I have had that experience countless time with many first Bank branches too... there will tell u that if you are not withdrawing more than 100k you should go and use the ATM even when customers have the right to use it or not and I have decided never to use their ATM again becos of an previous bad experiences. In fact In their Gwarimpa branch in Abuja at a period they were not even collecting deposits that is less than 100k cos they said there were renovating. No wonder GTB and upcoming Diamond Bank are getting populated by the day becos of their superb customer care.

@op am not saying that you are lying or something but I think these things depends on firstly MOOD and secondly MANNER OF APPROACH.
I stay in Barnawa kaduna south close to Danbo college so I use the said branch of Access bank for my transactions...infact I got a new ATM from the said branch last week and I didn't encounter what u listed above..they attended to me honourably so I think the bad day u had with them could be as a result of any of my points above..

You've made a point there sir, am just pointing out from a single angle but with your point sir I'd agree that some employees could have attitude issues too not minding how bad they are portraying the image of the coy they work with. This really need to be addressed as it really goes a long way and play a vital role on the company's integrity
