Zenith Bank is the real deal!

I abandoned Fidelity, Eco and GTB. As for GTB, I didn't leave them as a result of poor service but because my ATM expired and I just got too busy with another bank back then so my GTB activities went dead, I will still re-activate it though.

As for Fidelity, I don't just know why but I don't fancy the bank that much, although they keep sending me little interests on my savings account though.

As for Eco, that's one of the most useless bank on earth! Jeez! From useless charges to poor service to unprofessional staff, they have it all! UBA is another bank in its category, I don't bank with them but the few times I have been there and the complains I get from friends who bank with them is appalling!

From all I read here, the culprits are Eco, First Bank, Fidelity and UBA, and if these banks are wise they should look into this for effective customer relationship management, especially the issue of incessant debit for a plethora of charges by First Bank which I read a lot of people talk about here.

okay not too surprised at that.

Personally I have like four abandoned accounts. As I move jobs the new company insist on opening a salary account with their preferred bank. (Wetin concern me? as long as you pay me my money as at when due) so those that move jobs a lot then to accumulate bank accounts a lot.

Also silly customer care people and difficult bank rules are to blame, you may want to change your signature and the procedure for changing is more tedious than opening a new account.
Guy I will simply just open a new account and leave all the hassle for them.
@ bolded, if to say na this one I pitch tent with them oooooo. It's for your own good now.
It's for security reasons but if some matters are genuine they will look into the matter and help.

A customer, who preferred not to be named, recounted her ordeal with one of Nigeria’s leading banks, saying “My dormant bank account generated a debt which kept growing overtime, so, one must be careful.”

Currently dealing with First bank and Fidelity. No be say I like them. I can only resolve issues with their central customer support via calls and emails.

First, Skye and UBA.

Interesting thing is I still get alerts from them. I thought the account should have been closed since I didn't offer any bvn to them.

Fraud.
