It is so painful when we are voiceless in our own country, About a couple of hours ago i sent money to a student's first bank account in O.A.U Ile-Ife from Lagos, not knowing (both parties) that the so called bank now have a new policy without prior notification to their customers. First Bank Plc now has the policy that you must have minimum of two-thousand five hundred naira (N2,500) left in your bank account, meanwhile the account is student savings account.

No! it is N2,000 minimum balance and not N2,500.

There is nothing called fraud in this case, Policy we are talking about.

Customers were also notified on the policy change for over a period of one month.

Thanks for your comments but I wouldn't have sent the money if I'd been notified.
Not every student can afford the policy of N2,500 left in a student savings account (A students saving account?).

Dis is d kind of reckless post dt shd b discouraged and evn sanctioned.Much as fraudulent companies shd b exposed,pple shd not com and mke reckless assertions.Where is d fraud dt d bank has committed in d op's statement.Dis is ignorance carried to d stupidity level!

@doctokwus That's a harsh way. Mellow your blame down

We are all matured business people, we don't need to use harsh tones. Its just a discussion but feel free to express yourselves.

@mirinfo and haykay87,cudnt but sound d way I did bc of d title of d thread.Am an advocate of d use of d social media to right d many wrongs in nigeria,since many establishments and govt agencies av failed us,e.g,d ABSU rape saga;but wt it also comes responsibilty.Blv it or not,some info postd on d web can make or mar people,organisations and evn govts,so we shd all mke sure of our info b4 we post;and as far as I c it dere's nothing fraudulent in wat d bank has done for d Op to stat insinuating fraud.

@doctokwus - why are you too quick to judge? anyways, thanks for the insult but YOU SHOULD BE LITERATE ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO INSULT PEOPLE on the internet. You could be rich more than the richest man on earth to have over uncountable money at least left in your bank account, you could leave that to your bank policy. But here, we are talking about students savings account and I just posted that, so other students who cant afford the policy would know how to get their money sent and make use of the money for whatever they needed if for, rather than some policies unknowingly boycotting their money.

@others - thanks for your comments.
