U better go and make a report. If not ur money go just sitdown dere dey wait
Kx:
I personally filled form to link my Bvn with GTB, I refused to leave d banking hall unless given a confirmation that d link has been done; d bank insisted I shud nt worry Dat it's done.

On getting home, and on logging on to Internet banking, I still linked my Bvn thru d portal, I got d feedback that d link has bn done.

This morning I got the mail that my acct has been temp suspended due to non compliance with Bvn registration.

It's up to cbn and the banks, they are on their own.

Re: BVN- Temporary Restriction Of Your Account by Barcholder: 10:47am On Nov 02, 2015
The level of reasoning on here leaves a lot to be desired. Let me summarise in bullet points why its so important that everyone registers their BVN.

1. Nigeria does not have a Social Security (USA) or National Insurance (UK) system in place, which makes it impossible to identify people in Nigeria.

2. BVN registration is the way to remedy this situation, officially giving every Nigerian a formal identification

3. This will allow for a formal credit system to take hold in Nigeria, as lenders can officially verify each person, and create a formal credit referencing system in the process.

4. This will lead to a dramatic increase in bank lending, and also Foreign Direct Investment into the consumer financing space. All of which will dramatically improve the economy.

5. Nigeria is grappling with an insurgency problem, and it becomes possible to track and trace the financiers of Boko Haram if every single account has been formally identified. At the moment, money laundering in Nigeria is rife due to a lack of proper KYC on all account holders.

In short, it does nothing but highlight the stark ignorance and belligerence of Nigerians, that, after 18 months of regular reminders, as of today, more than 50% of all bank accounts have not had BVN verification. And yet, we are the very same people who scream every day about our lack of development.

Oh really? I use GTB aswel, but I never got such mail from them though.
Re: BVN- Temporary Restriction Of Your Account by Doracle2: 10:56am On Nov 02, 2015
I have no problem with a total restriction on bank accounts. What i dont get is why are banks still receiving deposits on restricted accounts?? This will give them an opportunity to trade on funds from people who might not rectify their accounts on time.

Everybody got the mail. I got the mail too, even though I did my BVN in January, and it is prominently displayed on my Internet banking platform.
I did a transaction just now, and it went thru without any wahala.
If you did the BVN, I think it's ok. The mail went out in error. I'm sure they will rectify it.
On a more serious note, this type of mistake shouldn't happen with a bank the size and precision of GTB. If anyone gets myocardial infarction because of this message, it's on their head....it's just plain irresponsible...
I did my BVN enrollment in a GTBank yet I received the same mail.
They better have a good explanation for this cos I take no prisoners when it comes to banking and other services companies.

I submitted my BVN...


Yet I got the mail


Smh
sorry about that dear...
but you maybe one of many people that has a conflicting date of birth or account name.
if the information on the BVN does not match with the details on the account, then its a problem..

naija is a joke, imagine I spent over three hours cos I want to register for Bvn, anyways I can forgo an account with balance of #0:0255
Re: BVN- Temporary Restriction Of Your Account by EdDave(m): 12:12pm On Nov 02, 2015
If u did the bvn update, ignore the message. If you didn't, WALK to the bank and do it manually. DONT do it on the phone or on the internet. SCAMMERS on the prowl.
Can't believe despite all these warnings, people are still falling victim.

Same situation. I still got the useless email. But they are on their own. I have other operational accounts. I will simply move my money. They are the ones who will start begging customers to come.

So can you explain why after I submitted my BVN to be linked to my account weeks before now, I still got the restriction email? Does Nigeria look like it is ready for such advancements?

Look at the power sector. We had an audience with NERC recently in which the DG was defending the proposed tariff increases. We were told all sorts of good stuff when the unbundling process started some years back. Yet what we have is companies of govt cronies buying up facilities on credit, with no bank support, no credit support, and no financing. Now Nigerians are being asked to pay in advance for non-existent services, being told that there is no way the companies will make profit at present tariffs. Yet more than 80% of consumers are un-metered.

Mr Man, look around you. Does Nigeria look ready for the BVN? When did our own President register for his own BVN? When did the former President register his own BVN?

Nigeria is working.

So you refused to do your BVN because you have Freedom?and don't like being told what to do?i am just curious, which Country in the World does not have a Government telling them what to do?when it is the law of the land, its either you shape up or you ship out.

There is no in between.
At least his refusal to register for BVN have acquainted us with the possible consequences to such failure. Something positive from a negative situation.
Re: BVN- Temporary Restriction Of Your Account by Nobody: 12:57pm On Nov 02, 2015
Dont you intend to lodge a complaint?
If you do not complain, the people in charge may be unware that their staff are failing to carry out the task effectively.
