It's Not what you call it. I av heard about it and have been using it to recharge my phone since last year (2015) and it has been very convenient. In fact I almost forgot about it because I was to do a transfer this morning and was thinking of how to go about it before I stumbled on this your post. Like every thing in life that banking method has it's advantages and disadvantages but it's advantages far more outweighs it's disadvantages. Your ATM card is supposed to be personal and so Is your phone but your friend was just unfortunate. Just yesterday a friend was telling me a story of armed rubbers that attacked them on their way from Lagos to Abuja while taking a Nite Bus. The Armed Rubbers came with a POS machine, they collected all the debit cards with passengers on board with their pins. The POS was used to test the pin in order to be sure it is correct. my friend first of all tried to play pranks by giving them a fake pin and they played theirs by threatening to machete off his fingers.. no b person tell am be4 him give them the correct pin.. then they collected their phones too. Do we now say the introduction of ATM machine is beautiful nonsense too..? or maybe a person withdraw money from the counter and immediately robbers enters the bank and cart away with all... do we say the it's beautiful nonsense? Bad things happen sometimes but blaming a very positive and effective innovation because of one unfortunate event is not the way to go. We should be thinking of to effectively keep away our debit card from our phones. 2 Likes |

ADENIKETINA2015:Your case is critical. So you could not understand what the guy said. Ok let me explain it to you. He meant should 737 banking be scrapped because it is not secured, then it also makes sense to totally scrap atm cards, since a thief can collect atm card from you and ask for your pin. Smh. So many dull people online 1 Like |

If you are robed of your phone and atm card and subsiquently the thieves use your phone to transfer money to their account, it becomes the problem of the bank and they should refund the money to you. Why? Because with BVN, they can revers the withdrawer and get the thieves arrested. All hail BVN NigerianMusic: |

@OP....Ur friend was too carefree wit such important online detail...And how were d robbers able to know he had a GTB atm and his fone number dat was registered to that account?? We must,on our own,learn to be security conscious with such... ...keeping ur atm card and the GTB registered sim in a safe and secured place is,in my opinion,the best solution cos the *737# platform is awesome |

My deepest sympathies but Who in this age and time does not lock his/her phone with a password. That gross carelessness. I have experienced theft and robbery several times and what saves my personal information from violation is locking my phone. Even phone coys have several securities in place which people still do not make use of until something bad happens and then they seek to blame everyone else but themselves. Should a great idea born for the good of many, be criticized, debunked and made difficult because of bad people? No! If so we would never have ATMS or Cards or any innovative idea. We should be more responsible! We learn from experience even bad ones. 1 Like |

suco01: Oga it is you that should ask questions. SI Transaction is for GeNS alert. That is SMS. Count how many transactions you did in a month and multiply it by N4. If you don't want that charge, deactivate your SMS alert and opt for the email alerts. NB: I've been banking with them since 2002. |

jagojunior: I think you have a communication problem. You mentioned the flaws in the *737 product and how your friend got scammed in one line without proper paragraphing. One would deduct the customer was scammed through that means. Because of litigations, banks must follow due process and that's why they request for police reports and court orders in extreme cases. But naija wants quick solutions. These won't work where there are enough systems and controls to avoid fraud on people's account. How can money just jump from one account to another if the person has not compromised in giving his banking details to a fraudster. Peace |

openmine: Exactly. The OP's friend was careless like the OP himself with his unguarded statements. In modern age, there are different security methods in protecting your phone. Keeping bank alerts on your phone is also a security risk. Here in PH where kidnapping is the order of the day, once Kidnappers get their preys, they go through the msgs to check for bank alerts and probably access their victims. People should be wise and security conscious and not bullshit an innovation that has saved life and reduced queues in banking halls 2 Likes |

Nigerians will not stop to amuse me. So myopic and ignorant and loud. For God sake, the first thing you should think about is the ownership of the account money was transferred to. And it can be traced with other security measures put in place such as KYC, BVN, etc. That's all. Why condemn an award winning banking innovation. #bushman. . A fi Lokoja na |

Donmams:Some people here on Nairaland accept payments for their goods, services, currencies (dollar, euro, gbp, etc) through bank payments, so how does a person who steals another one's card and uses it for such payments be traced? The wrong person will suffer for that in this case. |

Seriously a lot of people are careless about these things! Nigerians share their PINs and Passwords with families and friends; they leave their detiaks carelessly on shopping sites; bottom line they are not security conscious and when something happens, they blame the Bank. The first responsibility to protecting oneself is on oneself! Haba lets be careful! Na only you waka come! |

horsepower24: Careless? You work for gtb i guess. Do you know your last 4 digits is displayed on receipts of pos transactions and the store keeps a copy of that? The bank is definitely endangering their customers. If this is a voluntary service then fine and okay. People must know the risks they are taking by subscribing but automatically subscribing every single customer is crass stu.pidity and violation of the customers rights by gtb. A pin should be something hidden and known to the person alone, not the last 4 digits of your atm that's a nominal number. Even stores ask for the last 4 digits of your atm to sometimes confirm transactions. so quit the rubbish you are yapping and face reality. I bank with them and would sure move my account away. There are other banks offering same services with more security. Innovations around finances can only stand the test of time if they are secure. You can't reason away security because of convenience..You know why services like PayPal et al still exists? Because of the security of the customers funds, any other thing is added advantage. |

I think BVN is wonderful innovation that can checkmate financial crimes and fraudulent activities if the banks are ready to do the work BVN is meant for. But it would be disgusting if the bankers are too lazy to make system work. Without doubt it should be easier to check movements of monies fraudulently transfered. GTbank should have seen various areas their products are defective before giving them out. Going by the explanation of OP one will see that Gtbank mobile money is not save enough to subscribe to and depend upon. They shouldn't have made the pin the last 4 digits of subscribers ATM card. Can any Gtbank officials give acceptable explanation for that? If BVN has provided the basis to keep bank accounts more secure, all banks should have been consider safe for any transactions carried out within and outside the bank premises. Anyway I have used Firstmonie for years without any issue, it is up to Gtbank to strengthen its mobile money security. |

Jacko1:I am not a GTB staff, you must know that not all the complains here may be genuin. Even if they are, those individuals have the access to their various banks to complain. What is my own share. I was only being rational in my submission. We complain about everything, a bank has simplified banking for you to the level that other banks are struggling to follow same path. I bank with GTB and the *737# sservices is one of the most advanced technovation the banking sector has witnessed. Let me remind you that there is nothing with avantage that doesn't have dissadvantage. People who go to the bank to withdraw money are sometimes followed and robbed, so why don't you complain to the bank! 1 Like |

Generalkorex: Then its nt safe na! frankly tho, there isn't much the bank can do abt d phone part, but they should improve on the pin aspect. . n customers should understand dt fridays are usually d best days 4 these robbers as they can steal humongous amounts n almost always get away with it cos there's a 3-day break where the customer can't do much as banks do not open on weekends..so its better that they leave their sim cards at home or in an office, instead of carrying it about on dt day |

franugo:I can speak for GTB bt nt other bank. U can hostlist ur atm card anytime of d day. I did it once and no transaction could be done with d card. Once d person insert the card into d atm sorry the atm will swallow and dats all. U cant do any transaction on an hostlisted card. I think we just av to be careful. That particular day,friday evening I noticed dat a transaction was being done cos I keep receivin OTP code I knew my phone could be taken frm where I was charging. So I removed the phone bt keep getting d OTP code,the person even tried an international transaction which doesnt required OTP code. Dat wen I hotlisted d atm card around 8pm immediately I received the international transaction alert.then I called gtb customer care if d card could be dehostlisted.bt no solution. I was only told dat I could retain the number on d card which I reject. We just av to be care ful sha |
