Uba Africard should work.
UBA is a scam! Their cards don't work fr both online transactions and POS. Always says daily limit exceeded. Called customer care and I was told MasterCard Inc controls the daily limit. That I should try early in the morning daily. Can u imagine? So why aren't Access and GTB being given the so called daily limit? Mumu people.

Pls keep us posted on the UBA card

Hello everyone. Trust your day has been good.

I promised to get back to you relating to the UBA debit card.

Following the assurances I was given by UBA that I will be able to use its debit card for international transaction, I eventually opened an account with UBA and i got a MasterCard. I tried to make payment with the card on different websites (Skrill and Cryptonit) but transactions failed.

I went to one of their branches to lodge complaint and I was told I needed to "activate the card for web payment" before I could make international online transactions . To do that, I was told to write a letter stating some of my details. After I wrote the letter and submitted it, the customer care staff that attended to me said I should give the bank 48 - 72 working day hours for the activation to happen. That day, I returned home happily with the hope that my card will be able to do the needful soon.

After 3 working days, I still could not transact with the card. I called the bank's customer care line (CFC) and complained. The guy that attended to me told me he could see that the activation process was on. He said I should wait for another 48 hours which I did. Lo and behold, 48 hours passed, no positive feedback. I called in again, I was told to be patient that the bank is working on my request. Apparently, it looked to me the customer care line was not going to be responsive to my issue.

Still in search of resolution, I engaged @UBAgroup and @UBAcares on Twitter and I gave the bank some of my details upon request. I was told my card was activated and I should make payment with it later that day. Unfortunately, it didn't work still. I reported back and I was told to try doing my transaction very early; sometimes around 12:00am in order to beat the rush for the limited available forex. I stayed up for 2 different days hoping to beat the said rush, but still couldn't pay with my card.

To cut my epistle 'short', UBA disappointed me big time and even ruined a transaction I already hinged the card payment on. Even the Internet Banking details I was sent are not valid for login and the bank keeps telling me nonsense. I never thought UBA to be this weak and poor until I had reasons to do business with it. I promise to dump the bank sooner or later.

So, for now, your GTB MasterCard and Access Bank VISA card will do international online payments.
