What is vexing me is that I was charged ₦50 extra for a bread of ₦450 I bought via POS today.

I have told the salesperson that next time I'm coming I'll do cash payment.

That ₦50 will make more sense to give to the street beggars in lieu of crooks in Banks and govt...

I totally agree! I can't even account for their charges again, I ve decided to set aside #500 for them every month. Corporate robbers

In my opinion, it seems the govt has always connived with banks to defraud the country and its citizens. Most of these banks were given bail out funds some years ago which on a normal ground either transfers their ownerships to the govt or they pay interests to govt's purse. Unfortunately, it isn't so in this country. Apart from taxes banks pay to govt, there have never been any info available to the public about the bail-out funds. The govt through the cbn is a party to any illegal transaction banks do because banks must get approval from cbn before they carry out any transaction partaining to bank charges.

I had written an application to them recently to cancel sms alerts, the jokers didnt effect it I got billed 800 last week. I am changing them, very archaic bank, I only use them because it was the only account number I could memorize easily. Local man is fed up.

Oluwapresley:



Chai. Bros, same Ecobank I use? Funny enough, I have never had this issue with Ecobank since I started banking with them years ago. Or can it be the volume of your transactions resulting in a lot of SMS alerts consequently high SMS cost?

Hello Homeboiy,

Don't know what made u reach this conclusion about Ecobank. Please do accept my apologies.

I have a current and savings account with them. Besides been my most favorite bank, I've found them to be quite ethical and considerate in their dealings with customers, charges inclusive.

Rather than painting a wrong picture of the bank, why not visit any of their branches, social media handles, LiveChat on their Mobile App and website or Call centre (0705000000) to have ur issues resolved.

Thanks for your consideration.

Owning a bank is a real big business now especially in this 21st century.

CaptainMitch:
Yes I do a lot of transactions and it's 4 per sms

These days, I wonder what the difference is between savings and current accounts. Savings accounts now operate like current accounts. All sort of ridiculous charges!

These bankers are thieves. There are debits made on your account which you do not receive alerts for. Most of these debits are illegal and fraudulent! They debit you little money such as N12, N15 or even N48 because they know you won't want to visit the bank for such a 'little amount'...but you see, that's the difference between us and people in the western world. Over there, people would demand for explanations for any debit they receive which is considered improper!

I would rather invest in various businesses than keep money in a savings account that only enriches the bank and brings no returns to me.

Oluwapresley:


I think that's the reason why. The volume of your transactions. You be business mogul. Lol

I don't know if you have it but I will suggest the mobile app.

Under the account section, there is a mini statement for both of my accounts. Every deduction or addition that happens on my account, I'm notified so I can always trace every penny. And so far so good, I have never been either overly charged or charged without explanation.

Pos merchants are just extorting the masses. The policy is a stamp duty charge of N50 on every transaction above N1000. That charge they put wasn't necessary in your case.
