My dearest people, please who knows how much Ecobank charges for maintenance fee and how much is it to obtain their dollar card.

Olamak1:
Gtb is 10 usd per annum.

thanks bro

Olamak1:
Unless you're someone who buys in bulk, don't try UBA prepaid card. Their annual maintenance fee alone is 19usd, chargeable at black market rate. I had to dump mine after funding it once.

pls how much is annual maintenance fee for GTB

Alright sis, I will really appreciate it. Thanks.

pinkylovely:
Get a virtual dollar card from any of the service providers you know of. Right now, I can vouch for chipper cash because I've made use of them several times for international payments. But I'm looking for something with a cheaper exchange rate. People have suggested kudi wave (heard they charge $2 for their virtual dollar card) and klasha. Will look into any of them and drop a feedback if you want one. But for now, I'll suggest chipper cash. Works perfectly well except for the high exchange rate issue.

That is for physical card i guess. And to go to any bank now the crowd at the entrance will just discourage you. Thanks anyway, I really appreciate.

Thanks for your reply. Pls how do I apply for it, I have been checking their website for any lead but none. Can u pls put me through the process? Thanks.

GT
Uba

Pls which bank can one open a virtual dollar card with

pinkylovely:
Use a virtual dollar card or open a domiciliary account and get a card.

Good day fellow nairalanders, please what advantage does virtual card have over physical card. I am thinking of applying for GTB virtual card (dollar) if the maintenance fee won't apply. Kindly advise, thanks.
I hope they do have dollar virtual card though

Oh wow! Mine was on 3rd and it was still 490 [quote author=Prinzton post=119768952][/quote]

Is this their new rate? because the last time i used it earlier this week, 03/01 precisely it was still @490 o

Prinzton:
#504

Ominie:
UBA and Zenith still work

Pls do you know if Wema still allows international spend on their nairacard?

Jefferyzz:
It's still ok nah. Atleast nah 27d b their limit

Are you sure about this? I thought it was $20

IceColdVeins:
I’m not a mechanic/rewire. So I’m not asking for patronage like the “Tosin”.
It’s just good to have people who drive the same with you around, trust me useful information and their help can come in handy especially in situations such as this that you currently face. Thereby, saving you from spending unnecessarily cos mechs don’t give a fvck about what you are going through, they just give quotes and bills based on their own current financial needs.

Zero seven zero 4616 zero 3 zero zero

Thanks, i really appreciate. Will definitely give you a call. Pls are u also in Lagos

IceColdVeins:
I drive the same car and I don’t get billed this much while my car has never spent 24 hrs with my mechanic/rewire before. I even remember telling you in one thread to contact me. You never did!

I must have missed it because I contacted all the numbers given, one Tosin even did more damage than good to the car. Pls can I have your number again? L

Grupo:
It's so sad because that mechanic seems to have opened a heavy office for your head.

what advice can you give me pls.... Pls bro

ManAdii:
Where is your location?

I'm in Lagos

I'm sure the check engine light is on

It wasn't on before it stopped working

Good morning my good people. Please I need your input on this.
I have a VW Passat cc 2012, for a while now it's been difficult to get it started in the morning, it will start and go off immediately. Now it doesn't even start again. We have used 3 different VW specialists but none seem to get why the issue is. The last person that was referred to us said there's an issue with the fuel pump, (meanwhile the previous mechanics changed the fuel pump o we've bought 3 different fuel pumps now) and below was the quote he gave us
Need to buy a new fuel pump(the original)-60k, 2 sensors in the engine-25k, and workmanship 65k===== 150k
After we agreed and he did all of these he now decided that he would need to tow the car to his workshop and get it properly checked as he was seeing some bypass in the engine or so. He towed the car and now he's giving us another quite that these things need to be worked on again. Pls I need your advice on this because I feel this guy is just taking advantage of my ignorance on car matters.

And where in Lagos can one get? Thanks in advance.

jakjohnny:
Please how much is dollar in black market. Which site can I use to check also

So sorry bro, i have no idea of the current rate and the site

Olamak1:
Coins apply to selected items only,but aliexpress won't allow you to exchange your coins for the total price of an item. It (the coins) can only give little reduction in the price of such item when checking out.

oh ok bro, thanks.

Oh yeah! Thanks a lot, even using it as discount is not working probably i don't know how to use it

dietola01:
it can only be use as a discount. You can't use it to make order

Good morning my people, please how can I use Aliexpress coins for purchase? Any idea pls?

IceColdVeins:
please since when have you been using the 2012 cc? Im about to buy one now, I just want a honest review from you. What’s your take on the car generally?

I don't know if the issue was with the last user's maintenance, it's been from one issue to the other really. I got it earlier this year and I barely used it for 3weeks b4 experiencing different issues. Since then, it's been visits to the mech
