So I was sleeping on my own jejely this morning when a call woke me up from a number ‪09135806427‬, the man behind the line said he was calling me from my bank, Access Bank, and asked if I received a text from the bank asking me to upgrade my date of birth on the BVN, I was surprised but I said no, so he said I was asked to go update it from my bank or my account will be blocked and as it is now, my account is inactive until I reactivate it. For a moment, I thought it was true, since I did my BVN a long time ago, the staff there made an error in my year of birth, subtracting a year from it, and it affected me for sometime until I rectified it 3 years ago, so I listened carefully, the man gave me the 2 day, month, and year of births that was linked to my account (both the old and updated), asking me which was the correct one, and since I know they can't do anything with my date of birth, I told him the correct one.

He was speaking in a very professional tone with very good accents and all, he apologized for the error and I said he should not worry, now here is what I was waiting for, asking for details of my card, he said I should check my ATM card and I will see some numbers, he called the correct first and last 4 digits of my card, and asked me to provide the rest as that was my confirmation digit, that was when I smiled and knew this guy was an idiot. So I took the 2 other ATM cards of my Sterling and Wema Bank, and started mixing up the digits, I will pick 2 from sterling and 2 from Wema and called them out to him, while at the same time, retaining the numbers he got correctly already, the man was confused as I could hear from my end that he was on a PC as he typed and typed but the numbers were not correct, he asked me to call it over and over again, and I still called out the same numbers to him, so he did not understand what was going on until he got tired and switched to pidgin after spending about 18 minutes on phone, he started saying that I was trying to play with him and he was only helping out, and my account will be blocked, so I said, is a bank staff supposed to be speaking in that manner, or even pidgin at all while on official duty? He apologized and asked me to call it again, I called same numbers to him, but as I could hear his frustration from my end, I was seriously trying to holdout the laughter but couldn't, that was when I burst out and started laughing, and the idiot knew that this was no "white man, " switched back to pidgin and started insults, and trust me, I returned them immediately, pressed down, shaking together and running over.

But this leads me to the question, this guy knew very private details about my account, something that no one else knows apart from my bank, so I ask, HOW DO THESE SCAMMERS GET OUR DETAILS?

This man called my exact old house address, does that mean if I were to be assassinated and I still stayed in the old house, getting my details for the operation will be that easy?

it is a pressing question that really requires answers.

This can't just be swept under the carpet every time, questions needs to be asked.

Nice dogs yo
All I hear this days is slim chance of parvo survival but my vet didn't use that
Even after my dog stayed 4-5days with parvo we went to the vet and was cured in 2 days

And I just pages 5k for a 5 days treatment but she was all strong on the 4th day so I just let the last day slide

Anyways I don't know the vaccines u need to give feisty but I can direct u to someone here on NL a vet

He owns a post
Talk to a veterinarian
SeunH is his name

Thanks sir, I will check him out.

Fristy 2.0, this was when she was about 2-3 weeks old tho, she is fun, bubbly and according to the person taking care of her, she is very playful but respectful too.

Smart and Fristy

Reading through a thread of how parvo was dealing with some dog owners, I felt sad remembering my dogs Smart and Fristy, they were gifts from a neighbor who had a local dog that loves me so much, and I don't fail to play and even buy fish just for the dog to eat and enjoy.

Now the dog gave birth and became aggressive, so her husband said he doesn't want the dog anymore, in fact, he does not want to see any dog in the house again, so they sold the mum, but the woman was not happy about letting all her dogs go, so she gave 2 amongst the ones she loved, to me, hoping they would grow and birth, by then, she will be able to convince her husband to allow her get another dog from me. Even though they were local dogs I loved smart and Fristy so much, they were funny and aggressive even at a young age, which was what I wanted, smart was fearless for a dog of less than 6 months. I did not let them go out to mix with other dogs in the area, they were always indoors, a neighbor developed love for them too, in fact, anytime he is coming back, he always brings bones for them all the way from Porthacourt where he works, he will hold the bones till he gets to Lagos every single week.

One day, Fristy started getting slow, stopped eating, got thinner and all, I did not understand what was going on, after about 2 days, I decided it was time to go to the vet. This was not my first dog, but I never had any issues with Sadam until it died after almost 10 years of living. Anyways, I went to the vet and the man told me that the chance for survival is slim once a dog gets parvo, I was really sad, I told him to do what he can, he did, but unfortunately, Fristy didn't make it, it was a very sad one for me, so I read up about parvo and realized I needed to make sure smart doesn't mix with Fristy, but it was too late as smart was always fond of playing and biting Fristy even while she was ill, and in just 2 days, smart was gone too. I was very shocked and sad, the woman who gifted me the dog was even more sad, the sad look on my neighbors face when he came happily with the bones he brought all the way from Porthacourt, almost made me cry.

So after 2 years, I decided I was getting another dog, this time, an Eskimo, and in honor of My old dogs, I will name her Fristy, and name her first male child, smart, she will be coming in the next 2 weeks or so, she was born on the 11th April.

But the aim of the thread is to help people not very familiar with all these vaccination stuff for dogs.

Please just tell me all the vaccines I need to give her to stop all these illnesses, just name them, I'll pay whatever to get her fit till the end, I don't have the heart to loose another dog.

Seun, Lalasticlala let's get inputs

Reading through this and how the dog survived even after someone prophecy doom on the dog, I felt sad remembering my dogs Smart and Fristy, they were gifts from a neighbor who had a local dog that loves me so much, and I don't fail to play and even buy fish just for the dog to eat and enjoy.

It is hard enough to be a Nigerian, not just in Nigeria, but everywhere around the world. Nigerians are beautiful people, but the situation around the country makes people do even the ugliest of things to survive, and the government is doing little or nothing to remedy that situation, it keeps going from frying pan to fire every day.

There are thousands of Legit, Hardworking Nigerians doing very well out there in the world, and the freelancing world is no exception, having been a freelancer myself, I have met countless freelancers doing exceptionally well in their fields, and have managed to build a reputation for themselves, but most times, the Nigerian Environment does not make it easy at all even while working from home, or a little office somewhere, I am facing one of those difficult times presently and I just wish to share and also get inputs from Nairalanders.

So I am a freelancer who runs a remote agency with a few workers working around the globe, I usually use Fiver to pay my staff as I consider it easy and less expensive than many other gateways. Now it is no news how difficult it is carrying out international transactions as a Nigerian, Paypal decided to let us pay alone and stop us from receiving, banks frustrating us with stupid policies, and the CBN not helping matters too, popping out almost incomprehensible rules to further frustrate us.

So during the lockdown, I lost my Wema card which has always been my go-to card for my transactions to pay my staffs as it is linked to my PayPal, and I have not had any challenges with it until it got missing during the lockdown, it was not a problem for me at first cos I thought it was a digital bank and I could easily request for another card and it will be delivered in a few days, but to m shock, after 4 months of requesting a new card from Wema, being debited, and becoming a top fan on their Facebook page due to various complaints and messages about my requested card, nothing came up, I got frustrated and decided to open an account with another bank, tho I had an access account, but for some reasons, that moment, I was not able to make international transactions with my card, so I made a simple research of what banks is best in online transactions, Zenith, Gt and Access were the most recommended, so I decided to open an account with one of them after the lockdown was lifted. A drive around the bank branches around me was an awful sight, with at least 80 people standing on the cues of each and every one of the 3 banks, I could just not spend the day on that cue, it was impossible, I had a lot of work to do, so i decided to come very early in the morning, by 6 am, I arrived at Access bank and there were around 15 people already on cue, the same was for zenith and even GT, i decided i was just going to use virtual cards even tho their rates were high most times, but it was better than waiting. So as i was driving back, i saw a Sterling Branch with few customers at the gate, and i was excited, at least, i should be able to finish up in 2 hours or so, i gladly went in, gave them all my documents, and opened an account with them, and they asked me to come in 24 hours for my card, i was happy, little did i know that that was the beginning of my frustration.

So i went back gladly 48 hours later to request for a card, only for the sterling branch to tell me that they only had a verve card, which will never work once you cross seme border, and for someone doing international transactions, it was as good as not having any. I got so annoyed cos i told the woman opening the account that i needed either a Master or Visa card and she said they have it, so i don't understand what is going on now, by then, had already spent around 4 hours in the bank waiting for my turn, only to be given that devastating news, i created a scene in the banking hall that day, until one of the workers decided to call another branch which was about an hour drive away to ask if they had Master Card, and they said they did, so she asked me to go there, but it was already very late as banks closed by 2 at that time, but i just needed to get the card as i can't afford to waste another day outside looking for a card again, so i drove like a mad man and got there right on time before they closed, in fact, they closed the hall after my entrance. Finally! i thought, so i waited a bit for it to get to my turn to see the customer service, but that was a problem on its own as I was basically interrogated just for a Master Card, they were asking me questions like 'where do i live?' even after i clearly had my utility bill with my address, they also asked questions like 'what am i using a master card for?' 'Where is the closest bus stop to my house?' 'What is the most popular location that was closest to my house?' 'What is the color of the paint of my house?' 'Is there a tree in my house or not?' and finally 'i needed to show my international passport' before i could be given a card, i kid you not, every one of these questions was asked, and thankfully, i had my international passport with me, so they printed it, and all, before finally giving me an 'Alternative Finance' master card. I was shocked i needed to be interrogated like a thief for a mere ATM card but was glad i finally got it, i went home, linked it to my Paypal account, and tried to verify my account with the 4 digit code that PayPal sends in the debit alert, but the first shock i got was that i never received any debit alert of the 1.95 USD i was debited for, but from my Alt App, i was debited, and it was nowhere to be found in my transaction history or statement, i called sterling bank many times but they kept saying they could not give me the code as they can't find any code with them too, and an OPT was personal, can you imagine? I called about 6 times while requesting for the code 2 more times but they all refused to give me the code, i got frustrated and left them alone, this is a code that Access and Wema give you in less than 30 secs of calling.

Another thing about the Alt App was that transactions were not updated in the Transactions history Dashboard, as we speak, the last transaction on my dashboard was in December 2020, meanwhile, i have used it for countless transactions this year, what a pathetic app.

The one that shocked me the most was when i was using the card to pay for something online, and instead of me being debited, i get credited with the amount, at some point, i had almost 700k showing in my app dashboard, meanwhile, in reality, i only had around 7k in that account, the funny part was that once the original money you have is finished, no transaction will go through again even though you are seeing Hundreds of thousands in your app dashboard as your balance, but when you call the customer care, they will give you the exact amount you have in your account, what a useless bank.

After about 6 months, Wema bank, whom i had abandoned for their inability to deliver my card, called me to apologize and deliver the card to me, but by then, i had already sorted out my access account and it was top of my transaction cards, but then, due to the stupid $100 per month law by CBN, i needed every card i could get to keep up, so i took it.

Now to my latest challenge, Sometimes, access bank's card fails when i want to carry out a transaction, so i use Sterling when it does, i made a transaction of about $35 dollars altogether to pay for a service on fiver via Paypal on the 19th and 20th of April, it was successful and i was happy with the service provided, so just yesterday, I received 2 emails from PayPal and Fiver each saying that i filed a dispute with my bank regarding those transactions, and i was banned from accessing both Fiver and Paypal, i was mad, i mean, i never did anything like that, what exactly is going on? I contacted fiver and they said i should contact PayPal, which i did, and they further said i should contact my bank, in this case, the transaction was carried out on my sterling card, after contacting sterling, they denied ever making such a claim to Paypal, Paypal are on the other hand saying Sterling filed a dispute on my behalf and the funds have been sent to them and the only way my account can be reactivated is if that is sorted out and the funds are sent back to the rightful owners. Now, i am at the middle of something I know nothing about, and for such a little transaction, i don't even know what to do, creating a new PayPal and fiver account or what? cos i don't know who is lying here. Apart from the lack of electricity, the high cost of internet data, and the high price of fuel, the banking sector is one sector that frustrates the hell out of Nigerians.

What kind of gallon is that? 10 or 15l? cos the amount you stated can only get 18l at 165, 18l can not fill up a 20l keg till the point of bending, if it is a 15l keg, then you have been cheated too, so i dont know what you mean.
