@poster, you deliberately forgot to mention that 638 staff were promoted. As with most coy, when promotion comes, there will def be sacking.
Re: What Is Really Wrong With Intercontinental Bank? by zuker: 3:02pm On Jan 05, 2011
people should not edge facts as some statements can be very injurious. sacking non performance is a standard world over and we shouldn't use this to portray crisis in the bank at least they also promoted some members of staff.

GTB is over-hyped. In reality the bank sucks, service-wise they might be on point, but in terms of organization they are nothing to write home about. I cannot stand the long queues at the banking halls, when you want to deposit, withdraw or even get information from customer service. Even the ATM also has its share of long queues, which is complete nuisance.

Any bank that can attend to me in 20 minutes or less is the best bank. Long queues and rude officials are not the hallmark of a good bank and that is what GTB stands for.

Unity bank in the town where I live in is another example.
They may attend to just about or less than 20customers in an entire day.

this is rude blasphemy against the truth. You'll surely go to hell if u dont repent of this rude blasphemy and accept GTB as your one and only bank.

Re: What Is Really Wrong With Intercontinental Bank? by citee(m): 4:34pm On Jan 05, 2011
The topic of this thread was about Intercontinental Bank and suddenly it has veered to which bank is better than which. I just think we should stay focused  when we make our contributions to any topic. My opinion is that there is no justification for Inter to wait till the very last day of the month/year to lay off staff. It is wicked to say the least. And the point that some other staffers were promoted does not still make it right as we all thought the dark days of sacking were behind and the bank was poised to move forward. This action only sends the signal that all is still not well with Lai Alabi and his crew!

Re: What Is Really Wrong With Intercontinental Bank? by burgy(m): 5:47pm On Jan 05, 2011
lets call a spade a spade, GTB customer service sucks like hell. they have a good brand name working for them, but thats from the past! As of today they suck. long queues in banking halls and @ ATMs. plus customer service officers that feel like they are doing u a favour by attending to you. I bank with them so i can tell you that todays GTB is not the same as it was 3-4yrs ago!

That's the truth GTB is over-hyped. They cannot effectively manage the crowd they have recently.
I have accounts with GTB, First and Access bank. In terms of service among the 3, I will rate Access bank 1st , FBN 2nd and GTB 3rd,
