You talked as if where you lived in London in far far heaven that can't be accessed,you talk as if people like us don't have access to those places and things,you talk as if we have not lived and still living in the system,it may interest you that most of those agents don't even have licences to transact,they route these monies through kBL and other licenced Bureau de change,they have special discount because they are sub agent.


You do not have to go to Bolton to transact okay,sit at home and get things done over the phone,you think you are speaking to non entity?

Your driver license is processed by DVLA situated in Wales,yet it gets to you in London, Several agencies of government that are outside the capital (london) still function.

You are talking to someone who had lived in the system and still live in that system.

What sort of job do you do that gave you access to such a humongous cash?
i have said it here,some of you are crooks who want everything done under the table.

IF YOU DON'T WANT ALL THE LEGAL WAY OF TRANSACTION,GO HOME WITH YOU CASH,NO ONE WILL STOP YOU AT THE BORDER ONCE YOU DECLARE IT AND YOU HAVE YOUR BANK DETAILS AS BACK UP.
BUT I YOU DARE NOT because you know you won't be able to account for what you are carrying.

i understand you.

peope like you are the ones we call KPAS in warri proper KPAS,I for once thought you lived in the Uk the way you was talking, instead of you to l isten and learn you are here arguing with your ancestors for all I care, I BDC Agent on a south London high street with Big signs of today's rate and signboard stating money transfer is not licenced, guy, pls who do you this thing
you are asking how someone like me has £5 to 10k, you are a learner, you think everyone is like your Uncle who is a security officer I n Bolton?
I have gone fru your profile and seen once upon a time you visited Bolton and south Africa some years ago, you must feel like a KING in your hood,Stop this your ITK and listen to people when they speak so you can make an informed argument.My little niece who just graduated from the Univercity of texas elect elect got a job starting payment $67k and you are here chatting shyte .YOu think everyone is like you lot who are 419s,Im a qualified Engineer with over 16 years experience in the Uk so that your crooked mentality don't wash here take a good look at my profiles and post.or are you not the one asking for bank balance to get Uk and South African VISAS again, guy look respect your Old age cos you are embarrassing ur lineage!

Naso007:
This is not correct, maybe the person abroad just wan use una head.

Which policy exactly?

It is even better now.

Before now if someone send you money from abroad via Western Union or MoneyGram, these company would cut the money and give you small amount in naira instead of Dollar, euro or pounds.

But now if they send Dollar or euro you will simply visit the bank of your choice and pick the money in dollars and sell it to aboki at a better rate.

Also there is a solution for those who want to receive money via Paypal in Nigeria a
Withdraw in Dollars to your domiciliary account in Nigeria and then sell the dollars to aboki.

I always say this, nah change u fit collect not for the serious-minded.Especially people remitting their savings from abroad/

Akolawole:
We want our country to work but do NOT want to be part be part of policies that will make it SANE!

There is no issue in sending money only a slight change in 'lane'

Send from anywhere, receive in dollars. Simple as abc!

Just to clean up and remove money laundry.

talk is cheap why don't the FG play their role right? if not, tell me since wen did dollar become legal tender in Nigeria, if not for multiple exchange rate what else? and this, by the way, was created by them with winchy policies

Solatium:
You think i don't know what a dorm account is abi?
I only suggested you walk up to FBN UK to open a dorm account that will domiciled in Naija,they will initiate the process for you in UK but the account will domiciled in Lagos provided you can proof you are a Nigerian.


There you are,you think you know it all,now i mentioned KBL you said you have never heard it before.
They have been in money exchange business between Nigeria and UK for more than 15yrs.
just go online and google KBL monex
You can pick all the information needed online.
All the best

which yeye KBL, just cos U heard of KBL frm your house in Nigeria don't mean I have to know it, besides I live in London Bolton is at the Edge in manchester why should I know it? 1st bank UK is different frm 1st bank Nigeria diff entity diff board of directors check their website to be well informed
Dom account is not needed in the Uk cos ordinary ATM can give you Dollars at word mkt rate ie today's rate
ALl that long talk over Dom account is waste of time and does not serve any purpose for me,maybe people from Europe but for us In the UK, we have the high street transfer agents from the tip of our phone and its convenient plus you get BDC rate.This was what I meant when I said 10 years Ol system.
As Im speaking my sending limit is £1k on my mobile App so I can do another £1k to self 2morrow morning not that KBL shyte u talking about
I can see you are trying very hard to make me think you got something meaningful to say but nahhh its Bulsshit still.

Like I said, they know what best to do with their money than me n you

Solatium:
Which 10yrs ago was the system used?
the same account i opend about a year ago,all they requested from me was just my recent ID because the passport i used for the first account has expired which i have them my driver license and by second day i had my account number sent to my phone number.


If you still want a good rate,use KBL that domiciled in Bolton,as at the last check there are still sending money to Naija with good rate,yes,very good rate.


I know you will tell me that it is too risky to carry such a huge cash,that was why I added that caveat that if you get liver.


You can't have things done in your own way all the time,before World remit Skrill and the rest people have been sending money through the African shops scattered all over, don't come here and tell me what i know as if you are the only who resides in this place

U talking bank in Nigeria Im talking1st bank in the UK.?
what is KBL? I do not leave my seat when I transfer money, I use my Barclays mobile app to transfer to the Agent and then I get an Alert on my 9ja account if Im in the Uk I get an Email instantly 5 mins max. this ur KBL whats their rate nah, cant you say it here since you are in the know
U are talking Domicalrry account in the UK you make me laugh unless that's not what you meant Y would anyone want a domiciliary account in the UK? when you everyday bank can just give you the equivalent in real market value?

Solatium:
I have said it here,the problem with you guy's is that you want everything under the table.


You took that money out of a bank in your country of residence,that same bank can wire you that money and you will get same in local currency,then you said you don't want local currency which is fine and you are not also cool with the rate, no issue as well, the same First bank that gave you a diasporan account will gladly open you a domiciliary account in seconds,data from existing account will be use,you can even walk into their london FBN UK office and open a proper domiciliary account and have it regularise when you visit Nigeria.


If all those failed you or you are not cool with the rates as you said.
The same money can be brought home in cash if you get liver,all you need to do is to declare at the exit point and show the proof that the cash was earn legitimately you will have a seamless passage,but the problem with most of you is that you always think you know it all,you always think everyone on Nairaland is a non entity.

Why don't you just listen and learn to the diasporan for once
all those you said up there are systems used 10 years ago
You saying short cut, what short cut?
Carry cash into 9ja are you serious? do we look l like Ghana Burgers?
going the 1st bank UK is so old cos 12 years ago, I walked into their Uk branch I was told I needed £5k to open an account there, wen main street bank in the Uk takes £1 to open.
BDC rate today is N650 and CBN is N518 if you were in my shoes who would you go for?
I would like to state we in the Uk do not have any issues wiring money via 3rd party to our Nigerian bank account. the BDC in Nigeria have loads of Agents in the Uk licenced and you pay to them pay a transfer fee and the BDC in Nigeria credit your account within 5 mins in local currency and current market rate, I judge mine from abokifx
Nigeria the way it is you are advising someone's son to carry live ££££ to aboki,chi, U nor get heart ohhhh

He don't want to step on the wrong toes because he nurses the ambition of becoming a vice president of naija.

Nonsense and ingredient

Agbebakun22:
The money already in domiciliary account trying to pull it out I don't think there's any way the sender to get the money back

This is the negative side of such account, .sometimes they don't have Forex and U are stuck, there are even cases they ask you to cash o ut in local currency when there are even ATMs that can pay you In Euros, pounds and Dollars

donMIG:

Solatium:
The fact you are on holiday does not mean you can't access your mail,it doesn't even mean you can't recollect what you read 5-7onths ago.
But you can quickly run down a policy you can't recollect what you read something about abi?
Talk another thing abeg

See you,,You cant even be bothered to read what I sent you of which the policy was stated right under your nose and you are here typing craaaap or you don't have data to access the link bah U want me to spend 2 minutes of my holiday to sort your request out, guy U are a learner i PASS! Pls enjoy your next level Change me I dey Enjoy my holiday wit catfish and cold fearless!

Solatium:
If you transact such a volume either at once or regularly,there is nothing stopping you from having a standard domiciliary account,i mean absolutely nothing.
Even if you don't have a dorm account,you can still do it through the banking system and get your account credited with Naira in less than 72hrs.
But the issue with you guy's is you want everything done under the table

The problem with you lot is you talk from both side of your mouth with nothing upstairs, The issue here is the bank do not have enough forex to cope if 100% remittance is done the way the CBN wants it.I have what we call a Diasporan bank account with first bank those in the know would know what it is. Why would I need cash out local currency in Nigeria was this not the problem?CBN rate V BDC rate,I sent myself £1040 today (£30 being sending fees for £1k) to my 9ja account got alert of N650k, however, CBN rate is N518k and U are here talking shyyttttteee pls stop being annoying if you don't understand what people are saying just observe and learn

AtoningBlood:
Get your fact right, is this your first time?

International transfers take about 24 hours. Hadly you'd receive international transfer same day.

Depends on who and what you use bro.If you use high street vendors In the Uk nah 5mins Alert don show there is a reason why. the other Apps takes 30mins max. Im in 9ja as we speak and I follow abokifx as a guide to send myself money direct to my account!

Solatium:
Must you collect at a bank that does not have USD?
Some of you just find fault in anything without testing the system.
i was at Stanbic ibtc transacting and someone cashed out in Dollars right before my eyes

Oga relax read between the line cashout what,Im part of the people who send not receive pls get it right, you can cash out $500 or less try go cash out $20k,this where it impact, Im not talking of the odd $100 to $500s here

WILLuKPquiet:
Banks don't pay dollars they pay local currency at bank rate

This is so true nah scam but some few banks have $$$$ to give out but nah change

frm 9ja?

NovusHomo:
Lazy parasites of Nigeria.

ahaha me I nor dey send anybody money pass my Mother and father end of story cos nah dem born me train me

Lagaritha:
That's true. People abroad can't send money to your Nigerian bank account. I just received money yesterday from Belgium. The sender used Ria. I went to UBA they were talking trash. Picked it up at Polaris Bank in dollars.

THis will soon be an issue cos if Polaris dont have? or you live in a town where there are just 5 banks

Solatium:
You wet wan collect money no know how much you wan collect?
For as long as your money was sent in Dollar,enter any of the bank that operate Remittance payment,if GTB Bleep up enter first bank,zenith or uba,you go see one wet go pay you.

story, the bank you are sending to has to be listed B4 U press send unless you were using Western Union! or one of them remittance company if bank nor get $$$$ U don enter one chance cos they will offer you Naira at CBN rate! my friend feel into that trap.
This new policy is meant to force operators of Bureau De Change to physically carry their $$$ from abroad and lodge in a Nigerian bank for payout with the hope of I increasing forex in these banks, however, they failed to factor in the cost of transporting such funds and the insurance involved plus taxes in transferring such funds.

djsjxjfjdisjdjb:
according to your research. if you say u dey research well, you for know say those companoes you listed there halted naira transfers to nigeria. sometimes its better to not type and be a fopl, than to type and confirm it.

That person dey 9ja nah, U know talk is cheap, and carry talk is free!,By the way we now use high street transfer agents to send to 9ja, from the Uk, the rate I sent last direct to my bank was N650 for 1£,.

Solatium:
Can you state the policy you just condemned
Just want to be sure you know what it's all about or you are just following the bandwagon

There is a new policy bro, everyone who uses online money transfer got an Email from such provider.

yorke1:
Good move by the government. I now receive my money in Dollar and change in a very high rate using Aboki.

Dead move by the FG, you want to carry $$$$$ in broad daylight to Aboki, this o be wey GUNS full everywhere? unless you talking change, imagine confirm $25k o n the street

SenatePresdo:
Because you no get anybody for abroad to send you money abi? Bad Belle wey disguise

But he is saying the truth,People should stop disturbing abroad people

NovusHomo:
Thank you. They sit upon their asses, drinking beer, consuming pepper soup, and making babies while they expect their relatives to send them money. They have no business ideas they need money for; all they want is money for food, school fees, hospital bills as if they are not the parents of their own children. They think its their right as if those abroad are their slaves, and as if they don't have their own responsibilities. Tell them you can't help them now, they start talking shit. There is so much land in neighborhoods, but they are too "civilized" to grow vegetables. Enough is enough. Solve your own problems.

Bross who vex U like dis

olenyi:
Use sendwave and receive USD from any access bank branch nearest to you.

That use to be the headaches 10 years ago you are left at the mercy of Aboki duping you or robbers robbing you, receiving the money to your bank account direct was the best option, the FG should have twicked that part.

South Korea's candidate for the Director-General of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), Yoo Myung-Hee has announced she will withdraw from the race, clearing the path for Nigeria's Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala who the General Council announced late last year as the consensus candidate.

The World Trade Organization’s General Council Chair David Walker announced in October last year that Nigeria’s Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala had garnered the most support among WTO members to become the next global trade chief, but was vetoed by the United States.



SOURCE

NOI, as she is fondly called, will be the first female and first African to head the WTO if affirmed by its 164 members.

PS: @YooMyunghee1's withdrawal does not mean @NOIweala immediately becomes the @wto's next Director-General.

That appointment is taken in a formal decision by the WTO's 164 members.

Since the U.S. is the only @wto member blocking @NOIweala's candidacy the key question now is whether the Biden administration will reverse the Trump administration's veto and support @NOIweala

Absent opposition from any WTO members, the chairman of the WTO general council, David Walker, can announce the resumption of the @wto's suspended October general council meeting to consider the appointment of a new Director-General.

see people Nigeria look troway face
