seriously? This looks very impressive!

It is not compulsory you have a current account.
You must have either a current or savings account

obajoey:
but it seems for gtbank u must have a current account before u can be allowed opening a dom account.

If it is GTB,tell them you would like to close your account and you will see them get you referees from no where...Ask to see your account officer provided you have cash in your dorm account.

I did that over 9 months still not yet activated. Saying shits like it's because the referees came from other banks. Besides i got deposits i can't withdraw, it's sickning bro.

Who needs a dom acct with GTB when i got Payooneer?

Bro! Please I had same, never funded it but got expired, do you know how I can renew it?

I have two questions on these. My foreign transaction is in New Zealand dollar. If I open a US dollar account here in Nigeria, how would I be able to pay for a foreign transaction in new Zealand dollar?

I have been using FCMB for the past three years. You can withdraw all your money at any time!

Good piece of information

I will rather use Binance to transfer crypto to someone abroad than go through the hassles of getting a traditional dorm account.

You can see how to open a domiciliary account in Nigeria and other alternatives here.

I'm stuck at getting referees for my zenith dorm account, for over 4 months I've submitted 6 referees and only 1 was accepted.... Anyone in Lagos who can help out.
