WantsandMore:You ought to be ashamed of yourself for that accusation. How is it "manipulating" asking someone for a favour? You know, it says a lot about who you are. You must be a very unkind person that not only hate doing good, but also hate it when others do it. Just look at how you read deep meaningless meanings into a simple situation. Change! |

Connected1:Well, this is my business and my charges are final! Initially I was only keen on cash transactions for my products and due to CBN brouhaha, I shut my stores for days...and guess what? Customers kept thronging my phone with calls. You know why? Because my products are a necessity and they can't get it any other place within my axis. They pleaded with me to get POS. So I did. Therefore they should be responsible for the inconvenience I get with POS transactions. I'm not being fair? I'm bad? Well, if you don't want to incur #100 charges per purchase, pay me with cash! And oh, lest I forget, I only accept new naira notes. |

Am the account number of many people so many people, so when they work for a customer they will call me to give themy account number, so they can transfer money for them, when the transfer is done, I will call them that it is done, when ever they want to buy something they will call me again and give me the account number of the person they want to buy something from so they will call me again and I will send the agree orice so that is how it's is done and I keep journal for every transaction, so the cashless policy has really change our life.. and I collect my charges, I let them understand what is going on... In every transaction, so honesty is more than the money... |

Karlifate:God will help many POS operators as what they're doing is not different from what PMB/CBN/FG is doing to NIGERIANS... I just paid ₦150 per ₦1000 few minutes ago. |

AssCraver:So says SAINT MICHEAL. your fickle brain didn't tell you that I also make use of point of sales should the sellers nefused accepting transfer and I would also pay for charges too. Your hypocrisy makes me sick. Pls don't expect any response from me. |

writeprof: An average Nigerian is constantly on the look to take advantage of his/her 'naive' neighbors. Yet, they want the leaders to be different. |

Offpoint1:I'm never going to use POS agents ever again, they can all go to hell. And for vendors that let greed take over them, I'm never patronizing them forever. Charging N100 for N200 purchase is an act of criminality. I wish I could take this type of decision. I just went to pay ₦150 per ₦1000 now if I must go out tomorrow morning. And I must go out. One thing I learned is "hausa are the most honest people without greed in Nigeria" and the 2nd thing I learned is "Nigerians are opportunist and greedy people" Hausas are Nigerians too. So, not all Nigerians are opportunists and greedy. Some Hausas had to increase the cost of their goods because they were the only ones ready to collect the old notes in my area. GREED, WICKEDNESS, EVIL ARE THE NATURE AND NATURAL INCLINATION OF EVERY HUMAN BEING. HOWEVER, A DECISION MUST BE MADE BY EACH INDIVIDUAL TO CHOOSE EVIL OVER GOOD; CONTENTMENT OVER GREED; KINDNESS OVER WICKEDNESS. |

OfeAchi:What made me quote you wasn't POS transactions, you must be some jumping frog. It was about transfers made to your account not transactions involving debit cards. Go on and rant, if I knew you think lowly like this I wouldn't have engaged you. |

ahnie:First of all I will say you're a very stupid woman for addressing me that way, since u can't make your point without being rude. I'm sure that's how u talk to your husband at home. What would it take u to make your point cleanly? U love attention and online validation so much and that's why your life is this way. Your husband dey try shaa... That's if u still have one. |

ahnie:This is certainly no right! The customer will incure charges from his bank to do transfer to you,still pay charges to you to patronize you. This isn't right at all! |
| Re: How Have You Been Coping With Buying Food Items With Scarcity Of Cash? by ahnie: 12:47pm On Mar 18, 2023 |
ceeceeuwa:And I in turn goes to pos vendor to wildraw money to buy goods,should the customer instill on cash? And I get charged as well too. I don't know what all these righteousness is all about. |

I had to buy food stuffs in bulk including biscuits and beverages for the kids. I have a woman who accepts transfer without charges that I buy soup things from, God bless her soul! I get little change from the fuel station when ever I buy fuel and they do ' money back' . God help us to navigate this difficult period! "If one is a Nigerian,he no suppose go hell again. We have been through hell and back". |
| Re: How Have You Been Coping With Buying Food Items With Scarcity Of Cash? by ceeceeuwa: 12:57pm On Mar 18, 2023 |
ahnie:Your customers are the ones paying for the charges you incure in the process of doing your business! We should all stop this and it will be a seamless process! |

ahnie:And what's ur excuse for the #100, u feel good extorting ur customers or what. Anyways even on our POS, WE DO NOT CHARGE EVEN A SINGLE NAIRA extra, if U gonna transfer, we have Opay( sharp sharp)..If U want use normal bank we get too..The only catch is, unless u are a regular known customer, We must see alert B4 we release goods |

mariahAngel:You don't have to be salty because you disagree, I didn't say anything you haven't said yourself plus projecting your manipulative tendencies doesn't change the facts that you ought to do better, you literally used the word "Trick" tell me what does it mean to trick someone? What are you talking about? But no pressure though, I believe you can do better that's all. |

ahnie:still no reason for charging #100. This is a forum and I can comment on anything, madam tolerance. If you still do not have any valuable reason for charging #100 on each transfer,you are greedy. |

[quote author=mariahAngel post=121821628]To tell you the truth, it has not been that easy. Especially with sellers of smaller food items like tomatoes, peppers, vegetables, soup ingredients. To buy from sellers of these items, one has to have cash to pay, as they hardly accept transfer. There's a trick I use to get little cash; I go to my bread seller, buy some bread pay through transfer, then I ask my bread seller to allow me transfer more, so that she could give me back in cash, and she's kind enough to oblige me. That way, I'm able to buy the rest of the things I need. So, how have you been coping? Apc supporters should answer |

WantsandMore:Do you have sense? OK. If you believe you have this much👌🏼of sense, explain to me how asking someone to allow me transfer, while they give me cash is "manipulating"? Explain o, so that it shall be well with you. Not me begging the person to dash me money, or me insisting o, just asking. This person being a woman, and not a child o. A person I usually buy bread from, at least, 5 times every week. So, because I used the word trick, you took it literally? Are you slow? Do you even know what "manipulating" means? You see that you're not only slow, you're very wicked as well. Next time, resist the urge to gaslight your mother. |
