So if im a guy and I like this car, I should stay away?

In as much as I suspect this post is a scam, you obviously dont know the basic difference between vogue and sports.

Mr johnson...did I tell you I wanted to sell this car??

Kindly delete these pictures as I am a very private person.

I dont think those phones are waterproof.

That would have been apple's biggest offer while marketing these phones.

.

@magician, this is truly a beauty. Where did you see this and how much did seller want?

@OP, pls do u mind telling us how you managed to be in need of a full engine? Did the engine knock or what?

And pls guys, im interested in owning a bike but as of now, I can't ride. Is there any one that might be interested in teaching me or a school I can attend to cater for this? Thanks

I dont know about others o but @OP....I prefer your green SE camry to this new one you ''pimped'' it to.

man gatz ask na.

LOL I'm glad you got their attention and they promise to revert but I still believe you would have gotten it without those people you said you mentioned sha. You seem like a cool guy anyway aand I hope they dont bring out the other side I you. Let's see what happens by Monday.

But on a personal note, #justAskinO you really have 11 wards?? Are they your kids, mixture of kids and cousins, or you are an agent or something?

acevic:
If im correct, he approached a customer care personel at first. And yes, he has the right to be pissed at the manager for encouraging a customer to visit the bank before successfully completing a transaction in this tech era....

If it were u. Would u b so happy and calm to continuously sending mails for 6mnts without any positive response?

Just my opinion....

I wouldn't be happy and its unfortunate. But the manager only proposed a solution because people had obviously been coming to that particular branch laying similar complaints. That was why he was quick to propose the fastest solution for payment of the ward. Then he called customer care to make enquiries about the debit.

There is nothing not annoying in OP's experience. I admit. But at the end of the day, was it the dissing the manager that got him attention from the people claiming they will revert by monday or proper laying of complaints through different channels??

You up there, you are saying you gbadun OP cos he doesn't take poo...he should have broken their systems in order not to take poo na. . You were also saying this is tech age, manager shouldnt encourage physical cash payment or whatever...but when tech was failing users, what did you expect the manager to advise? That he shouldn't pay for his wards? Abeg if im annoying, its for your own pocket. As long as you are not my employer or contributing to solving this nation's problem, sit back please.

We should learn to direct our complaints to the right channels everytime. 6 months is a long time but these guys are not playing also. You think they are happy a customer is complaining about them? The other day I was at a new generation bank notorious for long queues to print statement, the queue was long but I knew since it was only one person attending to us, the queue would steadily reduce if customer care wasn't distracted by complaints. Some of you sound like people that would have been shouting in the banking hall, further worsening situation while thinking your shouting would make situation move faster.

I dont know it all... but i read banking news a lot. So apparently, I still know a lot. And before you sit behind a phone or PC to cast judgement, ask yourself what you would do if you were in the other person's shoes.

udedefaith:
See the CBN rule is if you have withdrawn from another banks ATM a maximum of three times then subsequently on the fourth withdrawal from another banks ATM you will be charged hence forth #65.
In my case I have not even made a withdrawal with my UBA card since last year I made my first withdrawal this week on another banks ATM and was charged for my first withdrawal since last year to WHY is that please explain.

Hello Faith, sorry about this but I think UBA should have an explanation for this. kindly walk into any UBA branch and check the reason for the deductions. Because it's clearly stated that the first three times on another bank's machine in a month are free. Maybe they will have an explanation for the charges. Plus, UBA may be trying harder to discourage its customers from using other banks' machines but I highly doubt they will go against CBN policy though.

As for you @OP, keep fighting everybody telling you whats going on o, you hear? Dont go and ask your people which bank they've been using your card on. And by the way, aren't you supposed to be the only one in possession of your card?? If someone withdraws money without your permission now, im sure you are coming back here to call banks thieves!!!

Also, kindly note there is a limit to the amount you can withdraw over the counter. This is also CBN policy. You withdraw above the limit over the counter(in cash), youu pay percentage as charges. Kindly ask for clarification before you make that large withdrawal. This will prevent you coming back here to call our regulated banks scam.

Cheers!

Apparently, a lot of people are still ignorant of the things going on in their economy. And instead of you to ask for clarification, you will be calling this bank and that bank scam or thieves. Since when has this policy been implemented that you are just calling UBA scam on Nairaland and calling CBN to intervene?

CBN stopped banks from charging #100 per transaction if customer of a particular bank uses other banks and instead said if you use your atm card on another bank's machine, first three times in a month is free, starting from the fourth time, you will be charged #65 per transaction.

You didnt mention your own bank or looked for your own bank atm to use, UBA that saved the day and gave you instant access to cash is now the thief ehn?

Just in case you dont know, if your card gets retracted on other bank's machine, IT SHALL NOT BE RETURNED TO YOU. That's also CBN policy. So dont go using other bank's machine and now come back to Nairaland to say the manager refused to release your card when the machine seized it.

I'm sorry it took you this long to get due attention but what I was saying is still valid. Customer service personnel would help you better than the manager you were dissing. Twitter handles are handled by ''a type of customer care'' as well. Instead of wondering how the operations head got to his level because he was unable to refund your money, you could have directed complaints to the right unit.

Lets hope they give a favourable response by monday. And BTW, im not a DB staff!

@OP...it's CBN Policy. Your title is misleading. You made it seem like GTBank is keeping your money from you without just cause or something.

We all know how our economy is really struggling and trying to tackle corruption, money laundering, fall in naira value and so on. We just have to bear with the changes and/or inconveniences for now.

The policy states that if your business or account doesn't generate cash deposits, you dont get paid cash. So if you get paid via transfer, you only transfer out also. And If you pay in cash deposits of the foreign currency, you get cash at the counter.

I can only suggest you use internet banking to get this money out. If you have naira accounts, activate internet banking and Purchase a token device at any of their branches and try to convert the money to naira, then withdraw anywhere, anyhow you want it.

By the way, i hope you are aware of the limit on daily overseas spending limits on naira mastercard as well. It's happening with all banks, not only GTB.

I sympathise with you but if you like, press charges and contact cbn efcc son nuc, you will not win this particular case.

Now, back to the issue. While I partly blame diamond for not reversing early or having issues with your transaction, I think you don't have anyone in the banking industry that can explain how things work to you, hence your claim of not being a novice when in fact, you actually are. You are here dissing the operations head and asking how he got there...well he got there with consistency + hard work and being courteous hence he wouldnt have a job at all. He could have directed you directly to the customer care but instead, he took his time to explain how others were doing it to you and the challenges they faced and apologised for his bank's error(note:bank, not unit).


This issue would be resolved by continuously contacting the customer care/e-business division of diamondBank. That manager can not do anything about this. He is in Operations Division, not Electronic Banking/electronic Business Division. As a matter of fact, the customer care can do more than the Manager on this matter. I believe we have a long way to go with electronic transactions but really, we are getting there. And yes, your transaction looked suspicious, hence the issue in the first place, if you ask me. 11 wards? The software may have picked something fishy up and now getting tougher contacting units to n fro in order to resolve. Also, the fault could be from the company too as they may not use diamond bank(i dont know how you got the info they use diamond bank anyway but thats confidential...and even if they use diamond bank, the money the forms get paid into might not be diamondBank account). In case they are not using diamond bank, it takes longer time to process.

Nigerian banks are one of the most regulated in the world. They are all practising the same thing being ordered by CBN with little variations. Not a single one of them will be delighted to hurt your feelings in anyway but What happened to you might have happened with FBN, Union, Heritage, GTB, Skye or any other. Instead of threatening with lawsuits, contact their key officers and express your displeasure. In the meantime, kindly sit back and keep sending mails and reminders on the subject to diamondBank. It will be resolved as soon as possible. Dont waste credit calling them, its the same as sending mails to them or talking to a customer care officer at any of their branches.

Lastly,I hope your wards are okay and did not lose the admission/enrolment?

I dont mean to insult your pocket o OP but you want to buy a car that will further compound the traffic problem we face daily in Lagos state abi?

You want to buy a 200k car and use full factory AC, ehn?

My advise to you is to save till you can actually afford to buy one. Whats the point in buying 200k car when you finally use 450k...to maintain it in 8 months?

It is also worthy to note that the price of a car isn't always the cash you give the seller.

If you dont have money, relax and keep saving. Sometimes, Good things dont come cheap.

God will eventually bless your hustle and find you a good car but right now, I think you are barking the wrong tree.

Makes sense.
Nice one Op!

These guys are on to another plot, I guess.

A regular, chronique or so, also narrated how he almost got scammed or maybe his customer almost got scammed using this same technique.

I guess we should never divert money to third party under any condition. its just sad that these scammers are spoiling market for the legitimate third parties that are feeding legitimately off the little amount they make through these deals.

marcjoe:
Didnt i ask you to wait that i was busy attending to clients, so i should leave people buying data from me attend to your own request, i am not holding you hostage and i believe i told you to give me time i would remove the no.

I ve been offline on nairaland, and my attention was brought to this thread by a customer, and i am here to clear myself on this issue, i believe you must ve tried my phone no severally yesterday and it was busy, WELL I WOULD SAY I AM VERY SORRY FOR KEEPING YOU HOSTAGE UNTIL THIS MOMENT...

but at the same time you have taken this too far maybe due to frustration, HOW WOULD YOU TAG ME A SCAMMER ON MY THREAD,....and right now i need you to provide evidence of how i scammed you, if you are not going to provide this evidence then you might experience the wrath of the law....

i have been faithful in all my dealings which has made me grow more in my businesses including dataplan and no one on nairaland has ever tagged me a scammer, this is the first time my name is being associated with scam and i need you to come here and clear yourself also.

Mr Man, swerve!!!

Poster, a customer asked that you do something. Being a customer, present or former, you should at least honour that request.

So because he/she isn't doing business with you doesn't mean you should take him/her with less caution or care. Dont come here and start defending yourself with silly comments. By the way, which correct business-minded person doesn't activate call waiting feature on his phone. As a businessman, your call-waiting feature should be on everytime so you don't miss a call even when you're on another call.


Please do the right thing and let the poster have freedom to buy data from wherever he/she pleases.

Mehn, you try o.
