So which of their methods should I use that will be cheaper?

Bank transfer?

Visa but the account and balance differs. Call their CC

francizy:
This is sickening men!

Was thinking limits would be as much as $500 or $1,000.. To even think of the fact that I've opened the account and purchased my MasterCard makes the matter worse..

Haaaa, their Mastercard rate is like #225/$. No try am

francizy:
Wow! That's crazy! So I'd have to carry out my transactions in 10 days?

francizy:
Hello guys. Does anyone know the rate billed by Skye Bank?

Thank you for your response..

#215.46/$. But you can only pay $100 per day

UPDATE:

I was at the bank around 11am this morning after my exam.

According to the customer representative, some money actually disappeared from my account but he didn't know the reason as it was yet to be updated on their database.

He claimed my online transaction for Wednesday (the day I noticed the disappearance) was also yet to reflect on their database as well and can't say the reason for the sudden disappearance of the money until my last transaction reflect.

He said I should come back by Wednesday next week.

What!!!! Next Wednesday!!!!

Omotweezy:
Hi guys ,
Please I have a situation . I have been making purchases on Amazon for the past two months with my stanbic card. I always chose the option to pay in naira equivalent when checking out. Amazon actually coverts one dollar at 208. I checked out in naira and stanbic sends me the exact deduction from my account .

So I woke up to find all my money gone on my stanbic account . After two months of purchases on Amazon . I called customer care n I was told that Amazon billed me lower than the banks exchange rate . Am so furious , don't know what to do. I also used diamond debit card to buy stuffs on Amazon and the amount debited was exactly what Amazon charged .
What if I did not have more money on my stanbic card? Would they put my savings account to minus .
Please has anyone experienced this ? What should I do about this ? The difference taken from my account is a of money .
Thanks for your help

Am experiencing same, was charged 5,721.50 on Oct 1st by Oct 26th Stanbic reversed the amount and debited me with 6,350.

Anyway, am tired of stanbic. Looking for alternative
