Till we get past Religious, Tribal...sentiments, we ain't going nowhere, is it not the same Nigerians that voted him in power that suffers & complains?

We blame the whites for been racists towards blacks, but our tribal sentiments on black vs black is nothing to write home about

Imagine one nation, one country that Muslim do not sync with Christian, Traditionalist do not sync with Christian & vice versa
Yoruba do not sync with Hausa, Igbo do not sync with Yoruba & vice versa

Is it not said that it's only when two or more agree on something, then it'll work out
A country plagued by mass illiteracy, abject poverty, hunger, tribalism, religious sentiments, extremists etc wants to move forward?

When we become serious, we'll know

You can inform them of your plan to escalate the matter to the said institutions if they fail to refund your money. Thereafter, visit playstore (if you're using android) or apple store and give them bad ratings, giving details of what transpired......

Sorry about your ordeal! Klasha has turn itself to torn in the flesh of their subscribers. So unfortunate!

Unfortunately, I don't know how to go about issue like this.

May be you should report them to CBN or NDIC on X (Twitter)
Thanks for this bro, my tiredness is already tired for them, if it's a little amount, I'll let go but this one is big jare!

Is it wise to warn them via their customer service agent on their app about my intention of reporting them to CBN & NDIC if after maybe few days I'll give them to return my money after which if they fail, I'll report them OR should i just go a head straight away?

Their X(twitter) handle @KlashaApp has been deleted, i even heard their Instagram page has been deleted too (this i can't confirm yet as I've deleted my IG app since but that of twitter i can fully confirm

I thought as much because it's better to lose $4 ( or whatever amount it is) creating a new card than losing everything.
Exactly what I've been trying to do since May, 2024, the screenshot below is always the response i keep getting till this very day, very moment (15th of June, 2024)

Their card creation service & funding has always been like this since May, till now

Their customer care service agents doesn't offer much help either(it's always either Romoke or Maybel), imagine asking me to create a new card after much to & from with them, i keep insisting that the funds are already with them from all indication, asking me to create a new card which I've been trying to do since last Month is absurd since they clearly know their card creation & funding services have been down since last Month

[color=#0000ff]Create a new complain and hear what another cc will say cuz refund should hit your card/wallet (whichever that's available). Or simply create a new card and get your fund. Maybe they've reviewed their policy cuz my refund hit my card within hrs last week. Just considering whether to order with it or get a withdrawal.

If you need your sanity intact (lol), leave these fintechs and get a physical $ card. [/color]
I have done that already, i have lodged different complaints with different customer care agent, all the time,i found out they just keep repeating thesame things(submit so so so & so files), then later their response will always be 'we're sorry, our team is working to resolve...'

I think the major problem here is that the card (Pink Card) has expired before the refund was made, otherwise like you mentioned, it doesn't take more than few working days for refunds to enter wallet, it has been like that for me in the past with them

The greatest challenge here again is in new card creation, both their pink card & black card creation has been down since May up till now, 'service downtime error' i could've created new card since sef, I'm just so fed up at this moment

Any other way for me to escalate this issue?

Hello guys, I'm having a little trouble with Klasha since last Month till now

A refund that was made to my card(expired) since last Month is yet to enter my wallet, i did provide all the requested info from them, after so many weeks of back & forth with the customer care agent, i keep telling them that the money is with them already providing the evidence both from Aliexpress & the card that was meant to receive the refund

There final say this evening is that I'll need to create a new card to be able to receive the refund & they know fully well that their card funding & card creation service is down since last Month till now

From my little experience, refunds normally hit the card if it's available but hits wallet if the card is not longer available, do these guys really want to chop my money

As jboixxx confirmed earlier, my refund will hit wallet, I'll then decide whether to liquidate ....

What do you guys think i should do, i need my money ASAP, is there a way to escalate this issue?

I don't know what is wrong with Klasha these days, i have stopped using them since my last card expired but as a refund was made since last Month on the card(expired), Klasha customer service has been telling me one story or the other after providing all they've requested for time after time, their usual we're sorry for the delay...blah blah blah

Even one of the customer care agent in her response called me another name while addressing me one time, it occurred to me that these people are massively copying & pasting responses

Anyone here know how i can escalate this to get my money back?

Usually I skip or look for alternative stores which don't use Nipost/DHL/FEDEX/EMS who have the particular item am in need of with only AliExpress Standard Shipping.
I know all most all batteries usually comes with NIPOST on AliExpress
Some products can't be shipped via Aliexpress Standard Shipping

In my little experience, most electronics i have seen on Aliexpress are mostly shipped through Aliexpress Selection Standard which is mostly via Nipost

Some experienced shoppers here can throw more light on this

If you show them the tracking details and amount charged, trust me they will, I've done so before
Aliexperess Standard Shipping is home delivery as you and we all in this platform knows it doesn't involve delivery fee because it's home delivery, I've been educated a little about it by the Speedaf agent
Oh, i get your point well now, No speedaf deliveries i have had ending with NG.......R charge me anything & they deliver to my doorstep for free

But this one i am talking about is NIPOST delivery that normally comes with a handling fee depending on the weight of the parcel, i have paid between #200 - #500 in the past but this is my first time of receiving a package via EMS via NIPOST & their price is a far higher than that of conventional NIPOST handling fee

This is what I'll do, chat up the seller if truly the logistics shipping company was changed from AliExpress Standard Shipping, they will give you a 1 or 2 dollar refund, happened to me.
THIS IS ONLY IF THEY CHANGED THE SHIPPING COMPANY.
The shipping company wasn't changed, it's Aliexpress Selection Standard

But, i don't see how this is in any way the seller's or Aliexpress concern, or am i missing something?

I had experience with EMS delivery for the first time last December in respect of one Anker Motion boom + speaker.

The Postmistress called and told me to come with 5k to pick the item. But when I got there, I told her I wouldn't pay more than 1k. After dragging the matter with her for a while, I eventually parted with 2k......

Nigerians just looking for the slightest opportunity to extort fellow Nigerians.

So unfortunate!
Thanks for your prompt response bro, be like say this EMS unit na serious thieves them be

Location is Anambra State, make i tell my sibling who wan pick it for me to start dragging from #500 & see if it'll end within #1000 - #1,500

Hello, abeg who has experience with EMS here, i just got a call now that my package is available for pickup & i should come with pick up fee of #5,000 via EMS unit, Nipost office, i told the guy that the handling fee I've been paying before now ranges from #200 - #500 depending on item weight & that the weight of this current one is 1.5kg, the guy cut call

I'm not around & want to send someone to pick it up for me, how do i handle this amicably since it's someone going to help me pick it so it won't be a hassle for him

I wouldn't pay more than #500 - #1000 if I'm around, I'll sort it out with them

This is my first other coming via ems & the longest so far, almost 80 days

On the first paragraph, yes, it used to be hassle-free.
Besides, I think I should add this, probably it might help: after funding your wallet or card but discover that the money doesn't reflect on the dashboard or the card, you may have to refresh the page before the cash could drop (I do it often). To do that, put a finger anywhere on the phone screen and swipe down. Do it like 2 or 3 times to show that the web bage is being refreshed. Then go back and check your wallet or card to see if you've been credited.

Moreover, multi-tasking on smartphones should be a seamless effort, that's why I can't understand why your bank app refuses to run side - by - side Bitnob app when minimized.

If you can multitask using other apps on your device without experiening any difficulty, then you may consider checking the security measures activated on your bank app – to see why it closes whenever you minimize it.

For security purpose, some financial apps do log out users whenever they become inactive for a couple of seconds or minutes, with a message "your session has expired " or"timed out". So one has to be extremely fast when using such apps for multi-tasking.
Thanks a lot for this detailed info bro!

[quote author=mctfopt post=130308277]Busy day. Hope you were able to fund it. Anyways, you can minimise the app while using the bank app. Because you'll need to mark the "I have paid button" on the Bitnob app after doing the transfer.

I no fund am again, i just leave am for now, i dislike the hassle, once i minimize some app, the other will close

I got a warning the first time i closed that payment screen about restrictions if i close it often, as an account i just opened, i don't want to try again for now since i know it'll close if i minimize the app, the Bitnob app itself support multi screen but my bank app no support am for my phone

Till i get an easy way around it, i think I'll leave it for now

E get as all these go too stress me, i fit vex go open Dorm account

The last time I used my Bitnob card ( I use Grey as alternative) was during the Aliexpress March sales, that's why am surprised to see this ugly update now. Both wallet and card funding used to be automatic and instantaneous.
Really!

You mean it used to be like Klasha where you just have to copy account number(wallet), top it up by tranfer, then open the app later, see your transferred amount on your wallet & from there just fund your dollar card

My major turn off now is the fact that my bank app & Bitnob app can't be open at thesame time so i have to click on that 'i have made the payment option'

I just opened the account today & verified it, verification wasn't all that smooth starting from otp to saving details, but after all hassle, it was alas completed

Don't close the bitnob app once you open it. Copy amount in naira to pay. Copy reference no too to add to transaction reference when doing transfer.. Once you make payment, come back to bitnob and click 'i have made payment" or something of that nature in that page that have amount, bank no and reference. Then you wait. I think they do manual credit because it takes like 10 minutes for the dollar to reflect. Then you go to "Cards" and click add fund. This requires a fee of $1 for amount less than or equal to $100, or 1% for amount greater than $100. Even topping card takes some time. I think all these are done manually. I may be wrong though.
Thank you for this detailed info bro

This will be a hassle for me, but I'll give it a try later

One, if i minimize the Bitnob app to open bank app, it'll close the Bitnob app, my bank app doesn't support multi screen either

What if one open Bitnob app for payment, then go to bank app but maybe have failed transaction or network issues for transfer, how person wan take do am na?

This Country just dy stress person no be small, all these unnecessary protocols just to buy/pay for something online!

Klasha still have one of the best user interface I've used in all these fintech apps, but their recent mess up too much, na why i dy try other alternatives, they did serve me well in the past but now...nah!

Hello, guys using Bitnob here, how do you exactly fund your card?

I find it a bit not straightforward as someone coming from Klasha app, i opened an account & verified, then clicked on deposit via bank transfer, i was hoping to just get/see an account number to copy & make deposit on which will reflect on my wallet & from there i can fund my virtual card, instead i saw 4 things there which were the bank account, bank name, the narration/remark i have to put...i copied the account number & remark, i wanted to go back, close the app & then open my bank app & make the transfer

It prompted me with reasons for cancelling and under it, it says if you cancel often, you'll be restricted

Abeg guys that are familiar with it should put me through, it's a bit confusing compared to Klasha

A combination of numbers and letters given by Aliexpress for tracing the destination of refunded amount, and is usually found under "refund details".

Normally, Aliexpress sends the money back to your bank when the refund process completes. But, in case your bank claims it didn't receive it, the ARM would be used to trace it.

I once experienced the refund issue while using "Cardrypto" dollar card.......
Ok, i see!
