any response to your email?

Actually there is a restriction on international money transfer that is why Facebook asked every applicants to fill in the anti money laundry form which invariably testify that it's not a fraudulent activity and that your consent was seek before the transfer. Besides you should all remember that Facebook always have a partner who administers and manages the whole exercise. In the US Ureeka manages this same exercise and here in Nigeria Deloitte been a financial advisory and a multinational company are in charge of our grant so seat back and relax. Facebook will definitely get back to us. The exercise is still on and they are still doing their finance check and once that is over they will send a mail to close the whole exercise and congratulate every winner of the grant.

HERE IS RESPONDS FROM THEM....

Lmao! There is so much Nigerian factor in this thing... Because whatt?? Lol

I don't understand this thing anymore. First they will get back to in 2 weeks. Later we should be expecting it from 23rd to 27th of November which means they have initiated transfer and now due to high volume of applications they are still verifying all Letters of Offer. 9jaaaaaa

Hello house, my bank (Zenith) just notified me that they git an inflow of 873 usd for me which I know is for the grant so they are advising me to either open a dorm account or for them to convert it at the CBN rate for me (awon werey). Anyways just letting you know they are disbursing it so get in touch with your banks people!

Likewise - You can open a dorm, sell at black market.. lol.. cbn rate na 38something o.

Congrats.

And Congrats again to everyone.

Thank you Facebook.

Thing is you cant withdraw your dollars over the counter and I don't think you can transfer it either, at least I know GTbank wont let you transfer. So the money is stuck unless they convert it to CBN rate and pay in Naira. Honestly Nigerian banks are so useless.

Please do not let them use dollar rate for you.

You can walk any of the GTB and give them an instruction to covert to the naira equivalent.

We don't know if everyone would be paid same day. But that $873 no reach ₦400k wey dem promised. I just hope everyone who has been awarded will get paid. Congratulations
