Where did you hear this one from again?
Were you asked to submit salary account and payslip?

Can anyone confirm this development here?

Is this for real?

Altern8tor:
43-44million should be in ur account.... What do u mean by partner,,do u have a dependent or are u a dependent? Lastly d account must be in ur name not ur partner

Please I want to find out if I can use the USD equivalent of the above amount in my domiciliary account? Does it raise any red flag owing to the fact that I'm in Nigeria. Kindly respond

Benita27:
First school leaving certificate is like Junior WAEC, both are useless. They give all the applicants same grade(C parallel). I think you would want to hold on to it if that was the highest level of education you attained. I'm not sure if it's needed when applying for a job 'cause most employers demands for WAEC and Bsc.

I lost mine too, but not bothered.

There is "Distinction"

Also note that, effective November 1st, 2014 the previous 1.25% with a CAP of N2,000 that is charged for POS usage will be reduced to 0.75% with a CAP of N1,200, also COT charges will be removed from all POS related transactions.

Ogetogeo:
Thank you for your response,you mean a savings account is ok too with skye bank? And can new savings account customers apply for that or need to meet a new requirement before they can?

A savings account is okay with Skye Bank. A new savings account can apply for it as long as all the requirements to open a savings account are in place.

segzy14:

i have checked and from my calculation it is 0.5%.

For commercial banks in Nigeria, a COT of N2 is charged on every N1000 that is drawn from a current/corporate account. Apart from the COT, VAT of 5% is also charged on the COT. Any aside the afore mentioned should be taken up with the bank

If you already have an account with a bank, either savings, current or corporate. Just let your account officer know that you need a POS machine, for example in Skye Bank, all you need to do is to fill an application form and within a week, your machine will be delivered to your shop/retail outlet. They also offer routine after installation maintenance services (all @ no cost to the merchant). All you have to do is to make sure that your customers continue to use the terminal. Skye Bank is there is expand your world.

Skye Bank emerges winner of Mainstreet Bank

OCTOBER 4, 2014 BY AKINPELU DADA

The Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria has announced Skye Bank Plc as the preferred bidder for Mainstreet Bank Limited.

The corporation also announced Cedar One Investment Partners Limited as the first reserve bidder and Fidelity Bank Plc as the second reserve bidder for the acquisition of the entire issued and fully paid up ordinary shares of Mainstreet Bank.

The announcement confirmed an exclusive report by The PUNCH on September 25 that Skye Bank, Fidelity Bank and a Moroccan bank were among the seven potential buyers shortlisted for the acquisition of Mainstreet Bank.

The announcement, according to a statement made available to our correspondent on Saturday by the Head, Corporate Communications, Strategy and Research, AMCON, Kayode Lambo, followed the receipt of the approval of the Board of Directors of the bad debt manager.

AMCON said in the statement, “The completion of the transaction is subject to the fulfilment of the conditions precedent as stated in the Share Sale and Purchase Agreement to be executed with Skye Bank Plc as well as the receipt of all required regulatory approvals from the Central Bank of Nigeria and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

“In the event that Skye Bank is unable to complete the transaction in line with the payment terms and other provisions of the SPA, the SPA entered into with Skye Bank would be terminated and Cedar would become the preferred bidder.

“Further, in the event that Cedar is unable to complete the transaction in line with the payment terms and other provisions of the SPA, Fidelity Bank would become the preferred bidder.”

The process for the sale of Mainstreet Bank started with interest shown by 25 parties cutting across local and international investors.

The emergence of Skye Bank, Cedar and Fidelity Bank as the preferred, first and second reserve bidders, respectively, AMCON noted, resulted from a rigorous and competitive bidding process, which was coordinated for the corporation by Barclays Africa Group Limited and Afrinvest West Africa Limited (financial advisers) and Banwo & Ighodalo (legal advisers).

The latest development came about three weeks after AMCON announced Heritage Bank as the preferred bidder for Enterprise Bank.

The CBN had, on August 5, 2011, revoked the operating licences of Afribank, Spring Bank and Bank PHB, which it said did not show enough capacity and ability for recapitalisation.
