Can you offer naira for dollars? Large offshore to offshore is available at #700/$. The least you can get is $1m. You can link me with a capable hands that you know should you fall short of this.

Because I called out your party.?

We can pretend that APC, PDP, and LP are the answer, or we can face facts and vote them out.
In terms of generating money in the non oil sector, no other Govt have done better than the APC.

If you know of one, tell us

Wema is the worst of all. Their dollar cards are also disabled.

Anyways, try Eversend. It's virtual tho. Just created a dollar card. Just note that the rates are high.

2wks ago, I had $250 in my fidelity bank Dom account so I decided to take advantage of the hike in dollars then to withdraw and sell it to aboki. I went to the only two fidelity bank branches in my state and they both claimed they don't have dollar in cash to give me. I later sha narrated to a friend my ordeal who told me that if I want, he can link me with a staff in one of the same Fidelity Bank I was told dollar no dey and that I'll be paid the $250 cash instantly if I'll agree to grease palms. I played along and got my $250 given to me after giving N12k bribe. Smh
haaaa!!! It is finished. How much my own bribe go come be? They should hold the money.

I want to hope so. I still feel very reluctant, just maybe the lack of trust in the system. I already have significant challenges in accessing USD on demand locally. I am not sure Emefiele will be there by this time next year, I will be surprised if the new administration does not fire him.
Dexyity:


Just the news alone will collapse all Influx on dollar into the country. We wey already have fx issue, they will now say they want to automatically change Innocent lying USD in domiciliary account.

Our economy is healthy, forget the current exchange issue. Emefiele can never try this shit. Check the influx of dollar into the country every month, now imagine if CBN tried such policy you mentioned! Those influx will stop and problem will loom for the country.

That is why CBN never even attempt such, rather, they are dealing with other loopholes that encourage frauds, black market exploiters etc.

I went to a Wema bank branch yesterday to withdraw from my Domicillary account, but i was told they have stopped giving dollars. I wanted to make transfer and they said that was also impossible.

Who else is facing this challenge?

Note i still was able to withdraw last week. Could this be from CBN?

You don't have mobile app?

I've already checked two branches. Won't even mind checking another branch in another city if I'm sure they have it. If you by any means know a branch that have them at the moment, I would check it up if its not too far. It's urgent. These are what people suffer because the country isn't working like a normal country. Why would a financial service be unavailable on a bank?

This is the reason it will be difficult for Nigeria to get out of mess....EVen if u kill all the current old useless politicians..the younger ones that will replace them are brutal...just imagine 12k bribe for $250 and i am sure the people that collected that 12k are cursing Buhari for bad leadership...this country is almost gone, corruption is endemic, no one survives without corruption, no one is clean

Both the person that collected the 12k, and the person that paid and our bad politicians are thesame.
It only shows that in times of despair we would cut corners.
The guy is even bold enough to say he paid bride.
Nonsense and ingredients

Yes, you can make payments online with your USD card


I tried doing that this month, didn't work. Don't know how long they've stopped it cos I noticed I can't pay for online foreign transactions with my local card since September.

Is Nigeria currency dollar that you save in it ? What you do is called economic sabotage, you earn in naira then you convert and save in dollar thereby eroding the value of the naira
- Mumu talking. that means what your useless CBN is doing is by keeping dollar in their vault and selling crude oil in dollar too is economic sabotage. I don't know how you lots can sound so dumb most of the time.

HAH:
. Very soon savings in dollars will be banned, Physical Dollars cash may also be banned, Naira value is getting eroded because people now use dollars like is our local currency, when travelling abroad you will have to buy travellers cheque from your bank.

Soon all your FX in dorm account will be converted to Naira, there are over $20B dollars in dorm accounts, if this is converted to Naira dollar can be less than 200 Naira
This guy also doesn't have sense If your useless president tries such rubbish trust me dollar will not exchange at your dream rate, rather dollar might rise to over 10,000 naira to one dollar.

Wema bank is presently having serious issue in all their banking services. I will suggest you make enquiry from your friends who have domiciliary account with other banks. I pity wema Bank customers, by the time wema Bank go bankrupt una eyes go clear.

Economic sabotage my foot. There is a reason why Domiciliary accounts are used in financial institutions across the world. It's not mandatory for you to comment on every topic especially one you don't have information on.

I send money abroad regularly for trade related issues and hence, a Dom account is needed to facilitate such.

This is half baked truth. No bank will deny a transfer for the reasons you stated, after all it's electronic money.
What if you had opened your online banking app and done the transfer? Will the bank stop and reverse it?
You probably did not listen well or you're just spewing false claims. People still withdraw money over the counter

Bro, if you don't have solutions to his problems just move on and stop condemning him. I have been unable to my transfer on my USD card for 3wks now I'm even planning on visiting UBA to know why.

Naija is a crazy place.... why would you not be able to withdraw the same dollars you deposited in cash?

That's why investors will be uncomfortable bringing funds to Nigeria as your funds could be trapped.
