You actually don't honestly. Lol I don't know why people believe going to the bank and waiting on long long queues will get every problem resolved.
I resolve all my banking issues online period.

These guys aren't ready for the 21st century at all.

The only time I go to the branch is to collect a new card, otherwise I do everything online or via the phone.

Sense 100%. Cashless should include less in-branch supports.

Really? My heart wants to cut if this is true. I cannot afford to be refunded in my chipper cash Virtual dollar card again. I haven't been refunded for the last one self. Despite AliExpress refund.

Did u call them? Cos i remembered i called them a week later after AE refunded my money and it didn't reflect in my account... After the call, the money reflected after like 2mins...

I have no control over the trash entity that is Nigerian Customs but I'm sure they retain practices that were seen as outdated 20 years ago in other countries.

Dear Nairalanders,
Please what is the best method I can use to pay for a phone on aliexpres. At a Cost of 50k+ ??

Download Klasha app and use the virtual dollar card. Use the link below:

That's what I have been using for the past 2 months now.

I use the Klasha app to shop internationally and make global transactions from Africa. I also earn ₦1,000.00 on every referral.
Sign up on Klasha with my unique link: https://s.klasha.com/ehib to enjoy the same experience.

You can also refer people to earn with Klasha!

I use SCB... Apart from their drab mobile app, they have been great. I love em.

Please, about the reference, any account type will do?

I already have the regular card tied to my naira account.

Must the refs be from their bank too?



No the REF's mustn't be from their bank...but they must hold Current accounts not Savings account

Stanbic IBTC and Standard Chartered are the worst banks in terms of customers service. They would be forming porch with snail like services and few bank locations. Go to GTB and see 100 people being attended faster than those bank taking 1 hour to attend to a person.


I don't know why Standard Chartered Bank re hell bent on Using Indians as their Customer Service Reps... Sometimes sef i go dey strain my ear to hear their low voice

This is so true, i had an issue with failed POS transaction without immediate reversal with Stanbic IBTC, and i went to thier branch and the CC rep told me the transaction was successful and i should go and met the POS merchant. I called thier CC line, and they told me why did i bother to go to thier branch, that i should simply send the failed transaction receipt via Email and just like that within 2 days, i was refunded.

In-app support on GTBank. No need to call or mail sef. Some banks just don't want to evolve.

Please, I need help.
My package has been at linehaul office for 1month now.
I don't know what else to do.
I also received a message that my product has been stuck for a particular location for 2weeks but if I clicked on it, I don't understand what they are telling me to do.
The track number started with LP but have changed to a new tracking number UV.
I went to the closest NIPOST office last 2 weeks and the item wasn't there.

Virtual dollar card or open Dom account.

The only options, of course! Even the 50k could amount to 80k or more at the end of the day.

For real? That's why most people don't drop contacts. Why would you think of calling post master cuz of your package. Visit the PO and make enquiries. It's possible your line wasn't reachable and it's possible they didn't try at all and worst case, it hasn't arrived.
bro i have gone to the post office myself today, they told me it hasn't reached them, this parcel is more than 1month, what do you expect me to do, everyone is receiving Thier parcel from p.o but mine is yet to reach my local post office,even if you call they hardly pick your call, and when they do, they drop the call immediately you talk about your parcel
this parcel is worth 165 dollar it's a mobile phone, i just need someone to just help me confirm where my parcel is, I mailed them concerning my parcel but they are yet to give me a reply
what do you expect me to do in this case this is my first parcel with nipost

Bro...I know how you feel, but you have to actually chill!. Everyone is recieving thier parcel you say? Let me ask, is everyone in the same location as you? Have you thought of factoring this in? One month you say? and it's Nipost? You neva wait, you just dey start, i have waited for a Parcel for 3 months!, I have collected refund one time even and the package later arrived after 4 months! One month and you are crying? That is light work na. All this kati kati might work with Speedaf, because they are a private firm with rep to protect, but you see Nipost, they are assured salary whether they function or not, and they have very little rep to protect, i might even give you the post master general of Nigeria's direct phone number and i bet you 90% , he might not give a hoot about your parcel.

So first things first, Chill, secondly, From experience, Phones ordered from AE are usually routed through NIPOST, and so that's the risk one must bear for that juicy lower price the phone is sell ing for rather than outrightly buying it here. Distance is also a factor, You stay in Uyo, which is South, Shipments comes to Lagos in the west for custom clearance, before been moved to the NIPOST regional centre, so those those in Lagos have this advantage of getting thier package slightly earlier because of this, so after sorting in Lagos, the parcels are dispatched to other states, and NIPOST logistics in the last few years can be akin to a snail with arthritis, extremely slow!, and they might not even move parcels to a particular state in two weeks, if the parcels doesn't met a certain weight quota. So the irony is that, the package might have landed in Lagos, but it will take at least 3 weeks to get to you. Don't just check your local post office or the one closest to you, If there is a central post office in Uyo, also check, because there's where goods are dispatched to other parts of the city when they arrive from Lagos and so sometimes it might be stuck there.

I do hope you get your package, but for safety, monitor the buyers protection counter, and if you haven't received the package before it runs out, apply for a refund and state your case, also keep up with the seller. I have successfully negotiated a full refund for a failed delivery even when the goods supposedly landed in Nigeria! , so be vigilant and don't fret. Ordering Phone from AE is 50:50, sweet adventure but maximum risk!

Shallom.

Bro that's their policy, i once asked them, why don't i just transfer the money from my account to my dollar account instead of going to a branch, they said it's their Policy, i guess you must come with physical naira to make the exchange there with the people in charge of that one.

Again, i own a dollar card with them, a physical gold dollar card, all you have to do to get it is get two reference and apply for it, download the form, your two reference, should put their full details and sign, you upload it back and finish up the registration. All registration is done in their app.

You then apply for the card, after that it will be sent to your home address, you can use the money in side to pay for any local POS or ATM, u recently received money in it from Payoneer.

They don't charge you a dime for any transactions

Thanks for the explanation, now the real question
-What is their Monthly spend limit?
-What is their exchange rate?

I know Stanbic IBTC rate is #640/$ at $15 Monthly spending

What's Standard Chartered own?

Cuz the kind of phone I use is not really sold in Naija. I currently use oukitel and im also attracted to blackview, doogee , and ulefone product
I like them cuz they are rugged devices and some have infrared night vision camera that let's u see in pitch black without using any form of light.
