Access Bank Wants Me To Commit Suicide by Babysho(op):
My dad deposited 30k inside my acct not knowing that as a savings account holder I shouldn't exceed 20k deposit limit....so they deactivated my acct...

I went to the bank with NEPA bill for solution......they said I have to upgrade my acct.. But I can't use NEPA bill only......they said I need sch Id card or national passport or voters card or residence permit...I don't have all those...

Please what can I do.....the bank guys refuse to help me out ohhh....help me my nairalanders.....

My dad said if my elder bro who has his ID card and admsn letter goes with me....they'll upgrade it for me....pls how true is this....we would have gone to confirm...but we have only 'to' transport... No 'fro'....so we don't get stranded....

Hello,

Here are some possible solutions:

1. Write to the bank through their contact center and lodge your complaint at [email]contactcenter@accessbankplc.com[/email] or you can call on these lines 0700CallAccess (07002255222377), +234 1- 2712005-7, +234 1-2802500

2. Ask to speak with the Head of Operations in the branch you make your transactions and let him assist.

3. Write to close your account if none of the above works. When your account is closed, you will have your full balance paid to you. CBN has mandated no account closure charge. You can then proceed to open a new account elsewhere if you choose but always remember the class of account you operate so u can correctly inform anyone making a deposit into it.

I'd like to know tho.. what kind of ID card do U have?

Well...it is expired but I still believe for the class of account u operate, a third party identification should suffice..from someone who has an account with Access bank tho. When are you likely to get your student ID renewed?

Try and get a valid ID too. (Driver's License, International Passport, Voter's card, National ID). It's very very important.

I don't think your account was deactivated. It probably just has a restriction placed on it...pending regularization.

I am in a polytechnic but the ID card I was given has a valid use for 2014/2015 only and we are already in 2016 so......unless I go back to school maybe we are to be given a new ID card I do not know because my t-fare to sch is with "NoAccess Bank"

You cannot close a restricted account without an ID.

Get a valid id

Yes u can. Know your rights. If you choose not to operate with a bank anymore, they cannot hold your funds cos u can sue them. We are talking about a restriction placed due to the class of the account and ID requirements...not a Garnishee order.

Calm down.

I don't know about Access Bank's policies on these things but account closure should take a day..not 3-4 days. Speak with the Head Of Operations. I hope for your sake, he/she is an empathetic fellow.

Re: Access Bank Wants Me To Commit Suicide by bettercreature(m): 2:26pm On Jan 19, 2016
Make a plastic id card and go there with Nepa bill or survey plan

Plastic id card cost 500naira


I had the same problem with UBA in 2006, but it was 1 million naira not 20k

After threating to withdraw all the money and close the account,they just told me to withdraw 10k out of the money to make it 990k then they reactivated it
