Hmmmm.....

Their sending restrictions, their "snail-paced" customer service team, their rush to ban people's account, their time lag when sending in some cases, returned funds, rejected payments, errmmm.... should I continue? grin

People don dey port to Skrill.
Skrill's customer service is worse off! Especially if you do mistake to send email and then when you call, they'll more often than not, ask you to ask your questions or make complaints via email, from your account. You go come wait tire for response...I don grow white hair on account of skrill's customer service o

Looted fund recovery is scam by this government,the idea is to give a dog a bad name in order to hang it.
Not only by this govt, it's what has always happened in this country, from one military jaunta to the next, spilling over into 'our democrazy' (not misspelt, na deliberate act cos what we have is crazy) , from one successive govt to the other; but can we be surprised? Most, if not all our presidents have ties to one military regime or the other.

I agree with the aspect of cutting down governance cost,it is noteworthy to know that presently Nigeria has the most expensive democracy in the world,most of the political offices are just duplication of a single job. On the issue of probing past regimes apart from gej own that is an idea that buhari will not even think about.
I was hoping you would go here ---»»»

politically that will be a suicide mission .
Any govt that wants to take 9ja out of its present situation would have to be ready and willing to sacrifice political survival...ergo: Rawlings&Ghana.

Now the FG is faced with 2 options ,the first is to look inwards,tax Nigerians painfully ,cut costs by sacking ppl and use the money saved to improve production infrastructures like roads and power all over the nation. This will inflict a lot of pains On Nigerians or borrow heavily to finance these productions infrastructure and leave the repayments for the children unborn to pay off
There's another option, albeit it could be considered unpopular, drastic and extreme: truly and actually gather all the 'looted and misappropriated' (herein after referred to as looted funds) funds (not just from the immediate administration), but all the proven 'looted' funds going as far back as they wanna go (but from Babangida's era is ok by me) when I say 'looted', it encompasses all the so called committees that have ever been setup to 'look' into any issue cos let's face it, they were only setup as camouflage to eat the so called national cake. Also the salaries being paid our politicians is just senseless...these are some of the gaps bleeding us dry. Once all the leaks are plugged, the options (1&2) you mentioned wouldn't be as bad as they would have been, and might just be minimal...inconvenient, but not totally unbearable.

if we go into details we will likely turn this thread into a political discussion
totally agree and those who know me knows I tend to avoid such.

the 3rd was delayed devaluation or floating of the naira
on this point, I 'disconcur' not that it wasn't a mistake, but on the basis that it was necessary and should have been done sooner.

The best thing to do now is to get a dollar account card and do ur transactions safely
even this one go hard bros, even assuming every single Nigerian can achieve this and are willing to, cos as we both know, demand has seriously overshot supply and we all know what happens when that scenario (is allowed to) play(s) out.



Singapore1:
the fact is even if every sell his or her property it will still be the same , the demand for dollar is higher than the supply.

if you are a millionaire and you aren't working again a time will come when you will finish all the money, then you start selling your properties until there is no more property to sell, you go back to square one

maybe Nigeria is looking for wrong solution, the solution is not bringing more FX, the solution is stopping the demand

and concerning PayPal i reserve my comment for them
Using the money from the recovered loot to shore up demands for FX is not growing the economy, it is being penny wise, pounds foolish. When I suggested it, I suggested it as being used for capital and infrastructure growth+industrialization. The main problem is our govt is directing focus wrongly...they shout and sing one thing, but their policies are actually geared and directed to an entirely different thing, then they come out and talk as if we be fools and we can't actually read between the lines.

onatisi:
The solution to this problem is productivity and export. But the Nigerian environment isnt even production friendly ,the good thing about the situation is you can buy in Nigeria and sell high out. Nigerians need to start exporting
We are on the same page bro...
Technology MarketRe: Exchange Rates Of International Currencies >>>Updates on First Page<<< by bdavis: 8:42am On Sep 04, 2016
onatisi:
PayPal is not been reasonable with the Nigeria situation ,the issue is there is no dollars in this banks ,that is why they want Nigerians to pay in naira at the prevailing market rate so that they can use the money to source for dollar,the likely scenario will be a loss for PayPal because Nigerian banks will just simply block off all PayPal transactions on their naira cards in order not to incur losses and ask customers to source their dollars from the black-market
Yes, we know and to an extent, I do agree with you about paypal loosing out. But when you paint it like this, 9ja banks come out as saints, which is far from the truth, but then again, for the purpose of this discuss, that is a secondary topic; the real topic being the lack of fx in the economy and truth be told, like you rightly postulated, 'tis only the beginning, the 'shit is about to hit the fan'

But I can't but wonder at such a time as this: where are all the so called 'recovered' funds we hear about? Money from the arms deal, from electoral and campaign misconduct and all that...what is the purpose of the recovery if it won't have impact on the economy?

Why do we have so much 'jets' in our 'presidential hangar' why can't they be sold/auctioned off and the proceeds pumped into the economy? I'm not saying these are the all in all solution, but the funds could make some impact...desperate times call for desperate measures and truth be told, we are here.

onatisi:
Bros ,dcc isn't applicable in Nigeria
...we all know that because our 9ja banks have blocked it.

there is no where the banks will get dollars at that price to pay PayPal
...

if PayPal knows that they want to help maybe they should start allowing Nigerians to receive money through PayPal at the rate of 317
...I'm actually keeping my fingers crossed that this paypal dcc is a precursor to 9ja paypal actually being enabled to receive funds (one can hope and dream right)?

When u pay PayPal through your bank card the banks have to remit the money to PayPal in dollars.. yeah we know, but the truth is 9ja banks are anti customer friendly, and are automatically programmed to rob us blind...it's in their DNA
the huge question now is where is dollars sold at 317huh Even I dont think cbn sells dollars at 317
...Going by data obtained from CBN, (https://www.cbn.gov.ng/rates/ExchRateByCurrency.asp), Paypal pegging dcc@317, actually makes a lot of sense, and quite feasible. It would also stand to reason that not all the '317' would go to paypal because paypal is not 'billing' the bank, but the client and both paypal and the bank would have a workable percentage the bank would be getting from that 317 as commission.

fashrola:
I swear I dunno if CBN is aware of all this shaddy charges
They are aware jare they just choose to turn a blind eye and only 'shout' when it serves some sort of agenda...abi no be dis Nigeria we all dey? Even those of us in diaspora, we still all dey here.

I almost believe the guy that quote 320 but my mind tell me say make ah make 1$ PayPal donaotaion first, then behold 385 !!!

Please make una no mislead people oo, 65 naira difference no be beans, that's like 65k when making 1k$ purchase
Lol@ no be beans.

Singapore1:
Meaning they are lying for Christ sake!!!
Please make una no mislead people oo
Don't get it twisted o...what was being reported was the clearing house rate (320). That is the rate GTB (and all other banks) reports to central bank they charge for transactions on their card, and invariably it's the rate at which they 'settle' Master Card, which keeps them 'legally' within the allowed not more than 2% profit margin mandated and stipulated by CBN for banks to make on FX transactions from the interbank exchange rate.

They said Gtb mastercard is 320/$
Clearing charges, in other words, how much GTB remits for every dollar transaction done on their card, when 'handing over' dollar to Mastercard' which would basically be same for all 9ja banks, so GTB is doing about 60naira on the dollar as profit margin, whilst banks like standard chartered whose rate is reportedly above black market sef dey chop serious money be dat
