Help!!! First Bank PLC Has Been Scamming Me Of My Hard Hustled Money by QuickStandard: 7:53am On Aug 05, 2019 |
Good morning Nairalanders. Please I need an advice. First Bank is scamming me of my hard earned money So, it first happened August last (2018) year when I used Paga to withdraw money, (#3,100) I was debited even when the transaction was declined. I was asked to go to my bank, which I did. I was given a form to fill but nothing happened, no refund nor reversal. I went there severally but nothing was done, I even called first bank several times, but nothing was done. When it appeared that I was spending more than the #3,100 I was debited I decided to stop. Fast forward to May this year (2019) I did another POS transaction (#4,100) and another (#1,000) in a grocery store, both transactions though not successful, but I was debited non the less. I went to the bank (first bank) to complain, as usual they gave me a form to fill, but till date nothing has been done about it. No refund nor reversal. Then on Friday 2nd August I used an ATM machine to withdraw #5,000, I was debited but was not paid. Now am a bit frustrated, cause I don't even know what to do. Worst part of it is their customer care service... I have called several times without them picking up, for hours, and my airtime continues to burn. Please is there anyone that has had similar problems with any bank, what was or is the best way to go about it to get my money back? I resolved to go to any first bank branch to make trouble, but on a second thought I want to seek advice, so as not to take laws into my hands. Please help as this is getting me mad, I can't be loosing my hard hustled money to an already rich bank. Please Admin help a brother, am sick and tired of this occurrences. Cc Lalasticlala Cc Seun

layzie: My brother, I have done all that. I have seen the BSM on this issue severally but she keeps saying gibberish. On Wednesday i called the customer care line for 55mins, no one answered. I have filled the said form but till now no response from them. |

I even had to print out the hard copy of my statement of accounts as a reference..... What I have in mind to do might not be very palatable |

QuickStandard: U said that already in your post. That's y I said call now. That u were on hold before doesn't mean u will be on hold now. This is morning. What exactly was 'the gibberish' u were told? |

layzie: That there's nothing they can do at the branch level, except from the headquarters, and I have to be patient. Don't you think this is gibberish? But am sure if I go there with trouble, there will be something they would be able to do...... And concerning the call to customer care, the only time they picked, they said it has been logged in, and I have to wait. This is August! How long do you think I will have to wait 1 Like 1 Share |

QuickStandard: Go to CBN's website....you'd get details on how to go about it and an email dedicated to such cases to be reported to the cbn. |

QuickStandard: From your posts, the issue was in May. It's resolution is long overdue. U need to find out the resolution since customer care told u its been logged. Could it be that the bank that owns the Pos declined? Could it also be that ur money has been reversed already? U need to know, which still takes u back to either calling or visiting a branch. Ask for the resolution of the log, it normally comes 10working days time frame. Ur case is 3months already. I suspect u don't want to spend credit on calls, so u can do mail Firstcontact@firstbanknigeria.com since u obviously own an Internet enabled device or u tweet. You will get a response today. |

Send first bank a mail and then copy CBN, with a funny title, then they will refund you in 48 hours. |

Bluehill1051: You can as refund him, since it's chicken change. Somebody complaints about unfair treatment from a bank, and all you could come up with is that he's complaining up and down....SMH 5 Likes |

CheapDataGuy: @ quickstandard Send your complaint to CBN email cpd@cbn.gov.ng and contactcbn@cbn.gov.ng. I had same issues with zenith bank. I almost gave up the money after about two months until I saw the email information on CBN twitter account. I sent a complaint to CBN . My money was refunded. And it was just #1,400 Be sure to attach evidence that you've tried to resolve it first with your bank to no avail 1 Like |

QuickStandard: You can get results faster on Twitter. Send a tweet to First Bank, quoting CBN (mention CBN twitter handle in the tweet) or send a tweet to CBN quoting First Bank. Either of them, or maybe both of them, will respond almost instantly. 2 Likes |

I'm facing exactly the same issue right now. Infact in my case, I have a negative balance when I didn't borrow any money from the bank. They don't even have any explanation as to why my money is missing from my account. I'm even getting tired of following up the case. I'll try to see how I can get my money back and then close that account for good. |

ekowo: Honestly, first bank is the most fraudulent bank. Very soon, the youth will start boycotting the bank. They think they are too big, that's why you will have an issue and after complaining, they will turn a deaf ear. 1 Like |
