Nigerians Abroad With Naija Current Accounts. Shine Your Eye! by Roforofo(m): 12:44pm On Jun 10, 2010
Some maga tried to use my debit card in Nigeria but entered the incorrect PIN. GTB staff called me immediately in the UK to alert me. I have asked them to cancel my card although na just 500 Naira  I dey keep to run the account. I have a fixed deposit of 15 million with GTB so their staff say it might have been an inside job. My advice to those with large sums in Naija current accounts if you live abroad either move it to a fixed which cannot be accessed by debit card or if possible ask your Naija bank to block your card. You fit unblock am whenever you visit home. Make we show these magas say dem be mumus! grin

Thanks but I will have to decline your offer. I go to Nigeria every three years and I run all my business interests in Europe and America. I am not able to supervise a business back home in Nigeria at present as I live abroad. The funds GTB are to help pay for school fees for my relatives and provide scholarships for primary and secondary school students from poor families in my hometown.

@Roforofo, I remember when u were thinking of fixing 10M in GTB sometime last year, Sorry but I am curious to know, What kind of job are u doing in Europe?, Paying for relatives and people from ur home town is a very generous thing and I am thinking to start doing thesame,

Saridon_P. Abeg no vex for the late reply, I have not logged in for a while. My interest rate is 1.75%. Getting just over 270,000 per annum right now which is very low. I hope it improves soon but I have been very impressed with GTB so I am sure their fixed rates will improve as our economy gets out of recession. I work for an investment bank in London.

Hi Ife007. Your plan is the safest and it is what I have now done. Open an account with GTB, operate it online and tell GTB you do not want any bank cards (credit or debit). Tell you family members to also open GTB accounts so you can instantly transfer money to them from abroad. Make your transfers online from your GTB account to your family members. When in Nigeria withdraw any cash you need personally over the counter. Job done. Nothing for the stupid magas we dey try defraud us. Best wishes. Roforofo.

You talk too much mister .
Must we all know you have 15 million with GTB?
Now you are ranting someone tried to withdraw fraudulently from your account.
People invest billions everyday .
So why your noise ?
I would advise you talk less and pass across your information without a show-off .
People you aint watching are watching you !
