First go to a probate registry in any high court, request for a letter of inquiry to mandate the bank to give the deceased account balance. This can be given to one or more family members of the deceased on presentation of relevant documents.

After getting the account balance, the probate registry would issue you a letter of administration.

You bring that letter to the bank and proceed to open an estate account linked to the deceased, you or any other family member would be signatories of the account. All you need to open such an account is 5k for a probate registry search.

The funds from the deceased account would be transferred to the estate account and you/family can do whatever you want with the funds.

The bank where I work you can get all the funds within 2 weeks at most.

PS: Funny how people are talking about next of kin and all, it doesnt matter here when it comes to this, the bank doesnt give a damn who you wrote on your account details as your next of kin, all they respect is the letter of administration brought from a probate registry by any family member. Next of kin on paper is just for formalities.

Good day bro.
I sent you a pm.

NEVER should you let the bank know that your brother is dead else the money go follow your brother too to the spirit world...

If he has an ATM, try as much as you can to find out the pin and make your withdrawals...

Not an atm machine chief. An atm printing machine. It looks completely different. And it has a sign saying it's purpose.

It is on the mainland too.

It is white. Looks like a vending machine and is positioned as a standalone, away from the ATM. Most times near the entrance where it can be plugged to a socket.

There is one at GTB Opebi. Festac branch at 301 road or something. The one I used is at Abule Egba, around Car Wash bus stop. Opposite Access Bank.

Any educated person can use it easily.

I don't know how he would pull the fingerprint off, but he can try.

Is that the machine? I have never seen it in any of the stalls I've been to on the mainland.

Yes, that is it. It is very possible you haven't seen it. I doubt there are up to 120 of it across GTB branches nationwide.

Is it necessary or mandatory for the bank to visit the deceased previous home of residence or family house after opening a new estate account?
