I was at the OIS Services office on Monday at Fleet Street, Central London and they told everyone there that the deadline for Bank customer livining abroad has been extended to December 31st and on their website http://oisservices.com/bvn.php, they are still Accepting appointment as it is now and in fact the appointment I made 2 weeks ago is scheduled for 20th of November . I asked 2 of their staffs out there and they both told me the same thing.

I concur...not just in London,other places too.
Their reason was that they didn't start the program earlier..(whatever that means)

I like this BVN idea but i see it as too early.
obviously a way to give contract to some company.

A government that did not focus on making sure people earn enough to have some money in their bank account calling for BVN\
Shey it is N3,107.54 that someone will be running to do BVN for?

worldmoney:

If you are not in the country,just call your bank,provide some of your details for their confirmation and you are good to go.
You will be among the selected few to activate their whenever they visit 9ja again.

Crazy GTB staff captured a wrong first name for me.

I tried linking my other accounts, the other banks said its not possible. I had to start transferring funds up and down to save my funds.

Someone said something about affidavit to that effect. See me see wahala.

Contrary to the claims by Deposit Money Banks (DMB) that there would be total restriction on accounts without Bank Verification Number (BVN), after the deadline today, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has clarified that account holders can still have access to cash transactions while the e-banking transactions would be restricted.

The BVN is an initiative of the CBN and the Bankers’ Committee, launched on February 14, 2014. It is a unique identifier for each bank customer across the financial industry, making it possible to build and track customer financial history and activity.

The CBN had last year issued a directive to all banks to ensure that their customers register for BVN before June 30th, 2015, so as to protect all e-banking transactions from fraudulent attacks.

Meanwhile, the Apex bank has said there would be no extension of deadline and that enough time has been given to customers to enroll for the BVN.

A visit by BusinessDay to some banks operating in Lagos revealed long queues of customers in the banking halls rushing to enroll for the BVN before the deadline.

Before now, messages hasdbeen flying from Deposit Money Banks in the country warning customers about account restriction after the June 30 deadline.

A text message from one of the banks read: “dear customer, accounts without BVN will soon be restricted. Enroll for/submit your BVN at any branch from Monday to Saturday”.

There had been claims that 62 million bank accounts may face restriction for failure to register. Reacting to this, Ibrahim Muazu, director, corporate communications department, CBN, said this was an exaggeration. He noted that many individuals and corporates do have more than one account and some in two deposit money banks, for example current, savings, domiciliary among others.

“Holders and a person requires only one BVN linked to all his accounts in any number of banks”, he said in chat with BusinessDay.

“Without BVN, you still have access to your cash but services/facilities (internet/mobile banking, loans etc) will have some restrictions”, Muazu said further.

Currently, only about 14 million out of about 76 million bank accounts have so far complied.

Seyi Ademosun, project manager, BVN, Nigerian Inter-bank Settlement Systems Plc (NIBSS) last week said the number of registered customers has been projected to increase to 20 million by the end of this month.

It helps because it is a unique identification system that will be used to identify terrorists, trace the flow of terror funds and, money laundering.
