Bank Customers complain over blackout in branches, failure of mobile money services

By Babajide Komolafe

THE last thing any bank customer expects in this age is a bank branch operating in darkness. That was the experience of a bank customer as reflected in one of the complaints below. Some of the complaints also show that some banks are yet to perfect the mobile money applications and money transfer services.

Is that the current exchange rate or you guys are joking, because it will be showing  N308 here but when someone buys dollars  you guys will charge something else

WEMA BANK

Ademola Awwal Kolawole

I made a transfer from my Wema Bank account to this my GTbank account for past 1hour. I got no credit alert. What is wrong? I got Wema bank informed, but they said you guys were having issue with your platform. What is the problem, better return my money.

Wema Bank Plc

Hello. Please do check the account balance of the receiving account because you may not receive alerts on all transactions. Also, what platform was the transfer made? And we are not experiencing any hlitch with any of our platforms at the moment. Please do revert with your findings. Thank you.

Ademola Awwal Kolawole

Please spare me words. The two accounts are mine, but the sender is from Wema and receiver from Gtbank. I own the two accounts. I have checked the balance many times, but no reversal to that effect. I used your  mobile money app, you better do something because tomorrow is Monday, I won’t take this issue simple. This is the right time, you had been doing it to me many times before.

Wema Bank Plc

Hello. Kindly send your account details, phone number and email address as a private message to investigate further. Thank you
