Ecobank Deducted 5,300 Naira From My Account As Maintenance Fee by guobe(op): 7:48am On Feb 28
The account is a salary current account and the maximum money for maintenance fee ever since have been just around 1,000 naira.
I was surprised when I got an alert of 5,300 naira deep into the night that it is for account maintenance fee.
Well I will be going to the bank on Monday to ask if they have started doing yahoo with customers money because you are suppose to inform your customers if there are any policy changes.

Better than to waste your time arguing with them. They might even say you came to back just because of N5,000 as if they can dash you for free

you are even a nice person for leaving 100 naira. I will never bank with Eco bank , even though I have an account with them , I've never used it.

When I opened the account, I just deposited 1000 naira into it, the next day they debited it and called it ATM card issuance fee, even when I didn't apply for atm. Till today, I no see card. Thieves

Re: Ecobank Deducted 5,300 Naira From My Account As Maintenance Fee by owobokiri(m): 9:11am On Feb 28
Access Bank did that to my Current Account with them and I let it slide..
I won't do so if it happens again. I will get to the root of it and I will be going to their office whenever I'm in Nigeria.

Looks like this druggie government has aligned with all these shylocks in the banks to loot from the accounts of the struggling masses of this country.
They live their corrupt lifestyles so openly while expecting the same people they misgovern to subsidise their owambe proclivities..

You never jam the new generation [/s]banks thieves.

Providus eye don tear.

One time they moved my account to another product segment that will enable them to charge ridiculous fees.

Debited the charges from my account, until i emailed them repeatedly to provide my consent for the move, that’s when they refund my money.

Don't waste your money and time going to the bank. Start from your phone first and send an email to them. Try the live chat, send an email. Try twitter.

Also find out who your account officer is. That's the person that can look into your account as a human who does not want to lose his/her customer
It could be a mistake.

Re: Ecobank Deducted 5,300 Naira From My Account As Maintenance Fee by dejavuh0007(m): 1:08pm On Mar 01
AMF is charged base on debit turnover on your account for a period, and the fee is usually #1 per mille if no concession is granted, i.e N1 is deducted for every debit of N1000 to your account. Using your bank statement, sum the total of debits to your account for the period they wrote in the debit alert narration and divide by 1000, if your answer aligns wt d 5,300 debit, you have no case.

E.g. debit turnover from 1/02/2026 - 28/02/2026 = 5,300,000.
5,300,000/1000
AMF for d period under review = 5,300.
