This mindset is wrong!
Many a times people need a little push or encouragement and confidence when venturing into a new sphere of life ( be it a start of a new business or investing in foreign markets)
When someone posts his/her screenshot of daily buys or gains,it may encourage one to take the bold and initial step. Recall that the early contributors to this channel started by posting their screenshot, people asked questions and got encouragement along the way (you inclusive)
To then call such an act as "show off" is a little too salty.

I don't understand why people in this part of the world always read meaning to things even when intentions are clear. On so many international platforms that I am on, you see people posting their day trades, losses, gains, monthly yields, portfolio sizes etc and no one accuses or terms them as "show off" rather people ask pertinent questions ( how long have you held?, How long have you been in the market?, What were your biggest losses?, What economic indicators played a pivotal role in buying, holding or selling that asset? )

Please let's change this mindset!!

P.S: People posting their screenshots should not be deterred and continue to do so as they deem fit.

You could not have said it any better really. I think is very wrong to summarily conclude or tag other’s postings as show offs when there’s no proof to back such claims. We are not here to compete but to learn and be motivated. What doesn’t work for you may work for others but that doesn’t make you a failure or the other person a liar. We all need to discover the strategy that best suits us. The road to wealth creation is not a one way street what matters is we all meet at the top and live to tell the stories. If you are loosing today you may want retrace your steps. Ask yourself what you are doing wrong and maybe ask pertinent questions from people posting these “show offs”. If their explanations does not match up it will be glaring for all to see. But sitting at a distance and tagging others fake it’s not just acceptable and it reeks of envy a prominent problem in this part of the world.

Make e nor be like say I dey talk too much but I have a way I fund my dom account without going to the black market, using my mobile phone, an internet connection, my Zenith Bank's Naira MasterCard and at a rate of "whatever Zenith Bank is exchanging at, most times it's 390/391"

Can I contact you directly so you can tell me more about this method please.

Thank you. My proof of address upload was rejected and I am just assuming that this is the reason. Other reasons that I suspect:

1. It was scanned and I sent it to gallery before I uploaded. I didn't convert it into pdf.
2. I scanned only the first page
3. The name of the city was not very clear in the statement. The accounts officer said that wasn't an issue.
4. The stamp with the name of the bank was not clear.

The major reason your proof of address was rejected was because you uploaded just a page of your bank statement. They require at least a month’s statement within the last three months showing all the transaction details you did within that time. All you have to do is snap the pages of your statement pages one after the other then convert the photos to a single pdf file of less than 15mb and upload it onto the app.

As regards the mismatch in your address you imputed on the app, sadly you can’t correct or edit the address on trading 212. If you are sure of the address you used on the app then you can update your bank account information to carry exact same address. All you have to do is go to the bank to get it done.

How do you do this for Zenith bank. Tried to no avail.

You will need a visit to the bank to do this.

It seems it’s case by case...

See below what I received when verifying my account:
“While reviewing your documents, we noticed that we are not able to accept your bank statement for this period of time as a valid proof of address document. Could you please provide us with a bank statement that covers a longer period of time and/or consists of more transactions (the end date of which is no more than 3 months back from now) so that we can accept it and verify your account”

Hence, to be on safe side, 3 months would be advisable.

I received the exact same email too when I uploaded just a page of my statement onto the app. I had to upload all the pages of the one month’s statement I printed from the bank before my account was activated. What they meant by the words in bracket is the statement mustn’t be older than three months from now. That is, it could be a month’s statement or two or three which ever you choose but all within the last three months. It’s same thing when opening a bank account most banks always requires a utility bill of not older than three months from the date or month you are in the bank to open the account.

Enick:
The address on my app has my current house address. Upon printing my statement, I realized it has my family house.

How do I modify my app address to my bank statement address because they continuously declined to accept the bank document.

You can easily update the address on your account in the bank to match the address you filled in the app and print a new statement afterwards.

InaNla:



Yes 3 months. They likely check the transaction history too.

No they don’t need the whole three months. I activated mine with a month’s statement but must not be older than three month’s statement from the start to the end date. Snap the pages of the statement and convert it to a pdf file of not more than 15mb. Make sure every page of the statement has the bank stamp on it.
