Is It Legally Wrong For An Employee To Let His Salary Lie In His Or Her Account? by freeman67(op): 9:34am On Jan 28, 2019
Good Morning House,

Please lots of discussion has come up around me about an employee leaving his or her salary in the salary account for as long as he or she want (eg for 3 years) without withdrawing a dime from it just for the sake of it.

Some say so long as you can defend your other source of income and it is not against your work rules and regulations you are fine.

Others especially the civil servant are saying that it is expected for you to be spending out of your Salary as the rules does not permit you to engage in business.

What is the lawful position please?

Do you have a Stanbic IBTC Bank account?

Do you have the name, email and phone number of your Relationship manager at Stanbic IBTC?

All these are very important.




Introduce yourself, your branch, account number and reason for the mail.

Good morning and thanks for your prompt reply Oga Emma,

Yes I have a Stanbic IBTC account.

Yes the name of my account officer is always displayed in mobile app or internet bank page. His email is there too but the phone no there is always their general Customer Care number. But they will always be a way around that.

Okay, will contact him.

I sincerely appreciate this.
