Considering the above quote, Please i wana know if YouWin selects a bank for u to open an account or u just open at any bank of your choice, am a YouWin4 applicant and i already have a corporate account with my proposed business name at Zenith Bank, dnt think i would wana use any other bank cos i will love to concentrate on 1 account. Thank u

@Chukwuka12, please can u help with an answer?

Denn:


Youwin chooses the bank.

Believe me, the choice of the bank is the least of your worries.

Focus on your plan first and ensure you make it one of your best outputs. Dont be distracted.

Even if you win, possibility of getting funds before December 2015 is bleak, ceteris paribus

IMHO

I checked my bank today as suggested. That is Stanbic IBTC, to confirm the status of my account and I was dumbfounded when my account officer told me that they have submitted the the legal search to CAC ever since and CAC has NOT responded.

What do my fellow awardee suggest we do at this juncture. Because they said that the YouWiN accounts have been opened but the problem is with CAC that are working at snail speed.

God will deliver us from this "Nigerian factor" where government work is done any how

Need advice on the next line of action

chukwuka12:


They don't submit anything, don't mind them, its the bank's lawyers that follow up with the search, the lawyers have either not gone to confirm the search or the account officer havent informed the lawyers to do d search..
The good news is that your account is opened, but u can't get ur cheque book until the search is confirmed...

Did u register your business in the same state you are opening the account?? If yes all I have said above is true. But if you opened it in a different state then it takes more time for the search to come.
My advice is to go there every day until it is done, or call their customer service line expressing your displeasure... Tell them how long you started the process of opening an acount and up till now they are telling u that the search is not ready..

hmbs:
bamistol,pls be assured that your account has been opened but you cant access t
he account until the search is completed.pls you have to let them know how important it is to have it done on time.best of lucks.

As someone rightly suggested we need a forum beyond nairaland were all YouWiN 3 awardee will meet State by State and see how to help one another on our parthway to the Wonderland of millionaire.

If anyone has any suggestion on how we can do that, kindly raise it so we can start immediately.

strigger:

You're really 'funny'. I think you need our help and not directing us on how to get help. We made it all on our own as you can see from the quality of our contributions here. Dont you think you and your clique need to win for yourselves first before looking for people to 'help'.
Go look elsewhere for clients.

Yes, I support the ideal. I think rather than saying "anyone", we should say everybody should share their idea & suggestions, because I believe we all have an idea and no suggestion is totally useless. I personally have been thinking about this alot, if we could get this going it would really be a win win for everyone. We a YouWin TEAM; Together Everybody Achieve More, obviously this forum thread has proved that to be true and we need to take it to the next level.

I thought of so many things we could do; like for instance if YouWin! 3 for example has 1500 awardees and there is a plantform for everybody to connect with each other, that would mean YouWin! 3 businesses are starting with or adding at-least 500 ready-made news customers. So, I thought about an online shopping platform by YouWin awardees for Youwin awardees, I'm trying to build something in that line but it's hardly ready.

I remember that during the time for Networking at the Training I took the contact of all the IT applicants and made sure to call them after but many of them didn't get the grant. I'm still in contact with one or two of those awarded the grant. Maybe we could start from there, like we all individually begin to rally and sensitize other awardees that we have their contacts, especially those who are not on this forum.
