There are some parties that are really determined to demarket Opay.

Opay has to step up their marketing because at this rate things are going, they are in for a hard time.

I don't really know for sure if they're trying to blackmail Opay or not, but I've got this advice for opay users..

Stop using account like Opay, Palmpay for saving money... Like stop using them as savings account..

You can do business with these accounts, but whenever you wanna keep your money, keep ham for digital bank! Always put your savings into digital bank !

Do not take this advice lightly!

Key Takeaways

° An OPay dismissed a social media claim that it has stopped using customers’ phone numbers as account numbers and switched fully to standard bank account numbers.

° An OPay official, speaking anonymously, told Premium Times the claim was inaccurate and said customers would get any major account-system changes via official channels.

° The denial followed an earlier reassurance from OPay that services would continue, after a viral report claimed it would shut down from September 1, 2026.

OPay has dismissed a social media claim suggesting that the fintech company has stopped using customers’ phone numbers as account numbers.

Naija News reports that the claim, which circulated on social media, advised customers whose OPay account numbers are linked to their phone numbers to visit agents to have their accounts converted to standard bank account numbers. News

An 𝕏 user, Israel Gharee, made the claim in a post, stating, “OPay is no longer using phone numbers as account numbers. They’re now issuing standard account numbers, so if you’re still using your phone number as your OPay account number, hurry to an OPay agent to get yours updated.”

However, an OPay official described the claim as inaccurate when Premium Times contacted them.

The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said customers would be informed through the company’s official communication channels if there were any major changes to its account system.

“I have seen the tweet. But even from the comments, you will see people are already correcting him. If we have any update or news, we will always share through our communication channels,” the official said on Sunday.

This comes weeks after the digital payment platform reassured its customers that its services will continue uninterrupted, dismissing a viral report claiming that the company would shut down operations from September 1, 2026.

i doubt opay is in any problem at all.

their current market dont have savings like that to lose
opay as far as i can tell does not have those charges that the less well heeled get upset over
opay does not have the outages that teh traditional banks have which can mess you up

what i have learnt from opay and the dangote ipo is tht most of these 'influencers etal are guns for hire playing a shadow marketing game for those who pay them

i dont expect anything to come out of all these games for the simple reason that the product is already in the hands of the users and most of the rumours can thus be checked in real time.

People are spreading false information anyhow because of monetisation engagements. When hands meet now, their family members will start begging for their release.

During the first incident, I came across a lot of users, both the learned and unlearned who had withdrawn their funds in a panic. This is just a small percentage of people who use Opay, but what of the larger populace who do not have access to means of checking these rumours in real time?

I have never seen any that was caught and looked good. The one wey Elumelu catch recently, na AI e use generate fine version for his dp. I was shocked at the disparity between his dp and live picture. You need to see his struggling mother begging.

The day I see a well-fed and accomplished internet troll, I will deactivate my account.
