Address verification by asking a random person in my area?
Who told you they asked a random person in your area?
They are different factors that made it fail.

What you'll need to do is to ask the customer service officials the best way they can revisit and confirm you live there because Stanbic is one of the STRICTEST with KYC in the industry.

Also ask if your account officer who the account is mapped to can help visit to make it easier for you.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Stanbic Bank Nigeria Is Holding My Salary Hostage: A Bitter Personal Experience by Esthered: 7:20pm On Jul 05, 2025
Dear OP, your address verification which is a key part of KYC failed.

The verification is always outsourced by the banks. If an agent calls you, if unable to locate the address provided, you should be counting yourself lucky because the verification ought to be discreet.

What customers are advised is to provide utility bill of where you live that you're known. If you're new in area, but your family house where you grew is still occupied by your parents in the same state, use it by all means.

This shows that they are coming down to the south and will eventually get to Lagos.

Those that are always on the verge of chasing that tribe back to the east, what are you doing to ensure it doesn't get to your states in the south-west.

You can see where i stopped reading.

You are one of those people that give advise that you yourself will not take/do.

Why advise a man to settle for less when it’s something you will never do. Why don’t you help the 56 year old man to do better if you love him.

Instead love wasn’t even in your equation at all. “I can’t” fullstop. Why should a man even give consideration to such when he like you is in a far better position and can do far better undecided

Note: the polar opposite of a 38 year old, financially unstable and unmarried woman is a 56 year old, financially unstable and unmarried man. It is NOT a 38 year old man - unlike the 38 year old women, a 38 year old man hasn’t peaked and has small chance to pivot and turn around his life (before 45).
Why is the polar opposite 56 and not same 38?
Why is all hope lost for a 38 years old woman?
She too can't experience a turnaround?

Ahhhh!

How does he want to head a home with struggling finance? His ego will not allow him to make the marriage work even if she's willing to marry him.

Lool some of you ehn. You are bad advisers.

Love conquers all kwa.

Esther can you marry a 56 years old man that is financially unstable, please tell us undecided

The level of double standard that is inbuilt some people ehn.
I can't.

But if he loves her, he can help her to get a better job, encourage her to pursue something better as sometimes we just need someone to believe in us......

He has to study her to know if she's laid-back or she didn't have opportunities due to limiting factors from her parents like no sponsorship for higher education....

If it's the later, he can help her get/do something better..... if it's the former, he's preparing to bear almost all the bills as she will be full of excuses to do better and worse when children starts coming.

They ve started pressuring the teens, which would make teens go any lenght to engage in vices that would fetch them monies.
Ahnie, I'm so pained as I have activities lined up that focuses in them but now we have to strategize how to bring adults on the stage on that day to engage them to raise the funds with games so as to meet up with the indirect target given.

Good evening ma.
Christianity EtcIndirect Targets In Church by Esthered(op): 9:35pm On Jul 03, 2025
It will be Teens week in my church soon and we're happy to plan activities towards the success of the day but the expected offering........ on that day is burdensome and making us stressed.

Growing up and graduating from Children's Department to Teens Church, we were never burdened about multiple offerings.....

Same church rolled out agenda for Teens Week and Day for 2025 and the agenda given for the day itself is the funds distribution...... after the Theme was stated.

Now rehearing with Teens who are supposed to focus on recitations, drama, sing special numbers as this is where they showcase their talents in the church but rather we're worried about how to come up with activities that will raise funds to meet the indirect target given to us.

I'm appalled because this doesn't allow them explore their talents and creativity but rather focus on the indirect target given to them.

I wish my church will do better as these children aren't working yet. You do same on Youth, Men, Women, Missionnette Day..... Allow the children and Teens not to be bothered about money on their day please.

Allow the pastors to work like in RCCG, this would help the church grow faster than making it a place known for contribution from time immemorial. You are over 90 years old and should do better.

Eyah. I dont know why poor people think they should do big wedding. A friend of mine is getting married soon and his wife’s family have covered the hall and some catering. Despite that he is still spending 10m. Money he doesn’t have and is telling us to donate. One naira i no go donate o
I cringe when I hear people donating for someone's wedding.
A man/woman have chosen to be married, why should they be soliciting for funds for something they ought to have counted the cost before embarking on the journey.

They open a whatsapp group, add people and start asking for contributions. This wasn't the norm about 5 years ago even if it was happening but it's has now been normalized.

Wouldn't they accuse you of being stingy if you don't donate?

OP, your attempt at rebuttal is weak, try harder.

It means a woman will always act childish and will almost always sabotage her relationship regardless of how intelligent and smart she is. In fact the intelligence becomes her curse. It is the job of a man to always direct her and caution her.
Does this describe the woman that birthed you and the daughter you'll have?

Most (responsible) rich men in thriving sectors actually marry their peers. Might not be 2-5yrs, but definitely not a crazy age gap like Ned and Regina. NL boys are delusional.
You're very right about this. It's only on NL that under 25 is the standard.

The weddings I've seen of "successful" guys are to ladies in their late 20s and above who have got their lives together.

They'll come to open threads later on seeking for advice about their disrespectful.... wives who they married when she was 20 grin
