Finally bought PTA from Stanbic head office today...

Kind of a man-know-man arrangement but I think with the mail they sent today they are definitely selling now.

I had applied over a week ago, and was calling everyday to check..also you don't need to have an account with them to buy (though I do)

Vacay loading yayy!

[quote author=mymy2015 post=41642314]Ordered on amazon last night. Order confirmed at exchnage rate of abt 208 naira to dollars using gtb naira master card. Problem now is bank balance remains the same. Will keep u posted.


Amazon quoted 208 to 1usd when I purchased in November but I was charged d official rate of 220 with my Gtbank naira MasterCard when my items delivered.i believe d rate is below 270 now if ur transaction goes thru.

But what all these banks are doing is wrong,charging customers for transactions at black market rate and claiming it's not them that it's the merchant (Visacard or Mastercard owners) while they are forming third party.
I believe this is happening only in Nigeria and CBN seems not to have any policy on it or come up with one.
I believe some high level settlement(corruption) is involved because CBN seems to have policies for everything except this craziness.
So pissed right now because I can't take advantage of the year end sales going on because by the time you do the exchange rate maths you wanna slap somebody.

I absolutely agree. The banks are taking advantage of the disorderliness from CBN to rip us off. Even black market is 265 or so, GTB charged me 270 yesterday. It's a huge scam and CBN is pussyfooting because they have bigger issues on their hands re economy in free fall.

The truth is that the banks are still accessing CBN at inter bank rates so I have no clue why they are charging the end users such a huge amount.

Imagine, earlier this year I made a USD transaction (charged at 270), transaction failed, when my cash was reversed, I was given 199. There is simply NO justification for such a spread. If they had given me 260, or even 250 I would not be complaining.

Hi kemmytino,

I m a first time mum too but ll b coming to Atlanta first week of March. Won't mind having someone to talk to over there. When's ur due date, mine is end of April. I m contemplating using northside or Piedmont but still searching for a doctor within the 2k plus range. I have been making lots of calls but it seems to go to voicemail cos of the holiday. Pls hola if u finally get one and I ll do the same. Although I got through one that asked for $3445 but that's still a bit high.

Ify4charm
Try doctor valisia Andrews she uses northside and charges less than 2k excluding lab.

GTB Rate on Amazon.com is between 270 and 281, your balance won't be deducted until the items have been delivered to you. Pls don't be deceived by the 208 rate.
