Still weighing my options. It's not a lot of money, so considering that Wells Fargo will charge about $50 and GTBank offshore charge is about $25...Transfast might be a better option.

hope43:
Pls is TRANSFAST.com reliable?

pretts:
Please do you have an idea what their $ - # rate is presently for receiving in Nigeria?

agarawu23:
For how long will it take you to queue just to send 1000$? Months? Weeks abi years? (Things we do within a day before dollar palava)

Federal Govt told Us they aren't selling forex to parents that their children are schooling abroad and you expect banks to sale the forex for u. From where will they get it?

Do you know why wiring from nigeria has been difficult since dollar hit 400#? It's because banks now use their forex to make business abroad. Ask me how.

You expect someone who is sending over 10000$ to wait on the same queue they are yet to attend to ppl sending 1000$?

You will fill form and wake to the bank very early in the morning to enable them attend to u but they kept giving you stories. It took my dad 3 weeks to send money gram after pressure and everyday bribe. BUT presently, they aren't ready to send at all.


The bank managers have their customers they now use in selling their available forex where they can make more profit than individuals waiting on queue to send at CBN rate. Ofcus western union and money gram have their exchange rate but do you know Nigerians abroad have abandoned WU and co due to low exchange rate while the parallel market remain high. How many internet fraudsters still use WU? So tell me how forex is coming through WU to Nigeria.

I heard about RIA money (FBN) of recent where their limit is $5000 but the bank manager was saying stories when I sent someone there.

These banks are thieves and they know what they are doing.

ijebu ode in ogun state

J0nyb0y:
i couldnt use them cos union said they have list of people b4 it would get to my turn might take 2wks while access was ready to do it 4 me but i dont have account with them so i went with fbn and was charged 280 same day

J0nyb0y:
i was on union bank and access bank on wed and they said their charge was around 207 via moneygram including charges

francawilson:
First of all,no post office can collect more than #500 per package if it is morethan 2.5kg upwards weight wise.

I have recieved over uncountable products from China and USA via post office. So wherever u got that info,tell them if its a post office staff that asked for 30k,the person shld be reported to the headquarters but it's usually #500 per parcel except u want to dash them money because of their hospitality

pretts:
Hello Sir,

The last time you contacted me in February, it was in respect to Form A which I said was processed within 3 working days at CBN rate by Stanbic if I could remember correctly...and not WU.

I'm not exactly sure how this works, but I doubt very much that the forex received by your recipients when you send WU belong to our own banks exactly. It's more like an exchange thing which 'the banks do on behalf of WU', that's why it is charged at WU rate and not CBN rate. So saying that banks won't want to let their forex go at a certain rate is blah blah as far as I'm concerned...Besides the Naira received here on behalf of WU is in turn used to pay the multitude of people who still receive money from abroad via WU.

So please do not be deceived/do not mislead others, those people at the banks (especially FBN, the most corrupt of them all) in charge of WU are cashing out a lot at the expense of those who genuinely need to transfer money. The forex belongs to WU, and not our banks...they are just channels of money transfer. Btw, the bank my friend used in February is sterling bank.

emekaD3:
I have 280 USD in my payoneer master card and I'll like to sell em at 260 naira per dollar. So if you have anything worth 280usd you want to buy on Ali express holla at me. Or if you own a payoneer account I can just transfer the $$ to you.


Take advantage of this opportunity and save 70 naira per dollar. Banks charge 330Naira per dollar!

My number is 08130280545

Macaulish:
THE TRANSFER YOU ARE RECEIVING WILL BE IN NAIRA EQUIVALENT TO THE AMOUNT YOU ARE BEING SENT.

AM NOT SURE OF DORM ACCOUNT RECEIVING WU..

Macaulish:
YOU CAN RECIEVE WESTERN UNION DIRECTLY INTO YOUR ACCOUNT. IF YOU HAVE A QUICKTELLER ACCOUNT OR AN INTERNET BANKING ACCOUNT WITH THE FOLLOWING BANKS:
ACCESS BANK - NAIRA
UNITY BANK - NAIRA
GUARANTY TRUST BANK - NAIRA
STANBIC IBTC - NAIRA
WEMA BANK - NAIRA
SKYE BANK - NAIRA and
FIRST BANK - NAIRA.

I've used the Western Union with GTBank.

walexsho:
Please, Is it possible I transfer In Naira to someone in USA without it been converted to dollar

Orioner:
yup It is... Tie it in water proof leather and send through FedEx

ruffhandu:
Yes, for now

ruffhandu:
It was 321 today

ruffhandu:
I have $1,300 in PH tomorrow. Anyone interested?

agarawu23:
that's it.
No magic there cos Western union to Nigeria has been programmed to convert automatically to naira therefore you will receive exact payment the sender tell u (in naira) not foreign currency.

agarawu23:
no way.
I send WU regularly.
You have no choice than to receive it in naira and ofcus with low exchange rate

HelenBee:
Rip Tosin but u took something that doesn't belong to you(your life).

tosinjay:
Maybe because people hardly use their card due to the rate they've decided to do film trick or wetin dey happen?

tosinjay:
This GTB rate is like chameleon, i quoted 299.6/$ and others said 199/$ so i dey see say another person say 274/$ then 213/$ and 199/$ again.. Well apart from that $5.10 i spent i no spend again. If una like spend. E go just be like wen you owe bank and use your house as collateral. They will evict people's money oo... Like toluxa1 GTB la main la account.

tosinjay:
I sorry for person wey go go use GTB card now take make payment. That thing isn't #199. I was drooling for it already. Dem just fall person hand, funny enough, even if they charge you that amount you're still in their hands.

tosinjay:
It's no good to owe bank ooo. Una wey una account fit mistakenly enter negative.

tosinjay:
So after all what i suspected was true. We talk am nah. Perhaps they didn't wanna play students that's why they didn't allow that with GTcrea8

toluxa1:
Awon Omo Ale

culcid:
Time to abandon my GTB account. They intentionally did it, with reduced patronage since the hike in exchange rate, they decided to reduce it and charge later, knowing that a lot of people will fall for it.

How do they expect me not to grab the opportunity, as if they informed me before increasing their rate from 220 to 300.
Besides, it wasn't lower than the official CBN rate.
My only wahala now is my friends and family members accounts that are on negative balance. None of them wan abondon account ni!
Awoof they run belle I swear

gbodimowo:
add me up too i il upload a screenshot now



well well i v called d bank and was told my money was not on hold and d system il correct itself meanwhile

tumababa:
all d money gtb put on hold at ₦199 has been debited this morning at ₦299. so who is the thief

Jacobx007:
Guy I tire for u oooo! Are u now holding brief for GTB? How can you possibly say its system malfunction? Do u know d complex system of checks a bank such as GTB uses? Let me tell u even if such an issue actually happens (which is extremely rare), no bank can openly admit it. Banking business is SERIOUS business my friend

mployer:
Wale didn't do it. He doesn't do such. He is only interested in making sure stanbic remains lowest. If you have any rate lower than stanbic, post it and lets see what happens.

This is system malfunction from GT, and what you guys did is stealing. I had opportunity to do it but I didn't.
