charlesELIKIBA:
There was a country....this government really think we are enjoying ourselves.

Filling statuons now charge N50 extra for POS payments plus another N52 for intra-bank charges. That is N102 for every pos transaction.

Una do well.

People always complain abt dis intra - bank charges but yet my Bank dont charge dat

Standard charttered

please join recharge and get paid,there is money in Telecom business. Ask me how.

valentinenw:
From today, it's either I recharge via mobile app, quickteller or I buy from street vendors.

It's either I use apps like opay, quickteller, mobile apps to transfer money or I go to the bank.

That's how Alat charged me #380 to do a ussd transfer of 9k saying its #20 per second billing when using ussd channel and the billing is totally controlled by mtn

Cashless policy my left foot

Soon quick teller self go dey charge
Soon everyone will be charged for everything

Then recharge through your RAGP account or contact me if you wants to register with RAGP. For every recharge you do with your recharge and get paid account, you will be paid.

USSD airtime recharge option is one of the fastest, (in fact the fastest on some occasions) and the easiest. It also comes in very handy when traveling or stranded in a new location and you are in need of urgent top-up for either data or voice calls.

It is far better than even the banks’ apps and third party apps in terms of convenience, since you do not need to login and go through the hassle of typing a password. USSD does not also requires internet connection to get your airtime topped-up.

In fact, one of thing that makes it preferable to other options is that It is completely free, but that is about to change as banks will soon start charging people for using USSD to top-up.

MTN has started sending SMS to its customers regarding the End User Billing for Bank USSD Services. The SMS reads;

RIP to *777# and others. See how Buhari government is about to kill a good innovation because of tax.

Mallam Musa, give me recharge card joor.

iamoyindamola:
they will charge them too I guess, we will start paying 10 extra

That's true o, Oyinda

Nice brain.

Smart thinking.

If the #10 pays them and MTN at the same time though, I won't mind.

harjay1986:
Am sorry to say dis , I think My own bank no dey for this set up
1. After withdrawing 3 time on a different ATM there is no billing of N 65.

2. All this una charges no dey reach me

Sometime I begin to see two different Nigerian

Am talking of Standard Charttered Bank

Standard Chartered is a good bank but with limited branches. That's the greatest challenge to bank with them.

Quickteller charges has always been in place. They charge #100 per transaction except for airtime purchase.

The Minister of Communication has directed that the new charges be suspended, since he wasn't briefed about it.

Additional Tax made Lebanese youths to enter streets. The worse mistake Nigeria ever made was unitary system of govt. It is so hard to protest in Nigeria becus it will surely have ethnic sentiment attached. This is why govt is always having a free day to behave as they like. The shits we take in Nigeria, many citizens in other countries cant take them.

We are tax yet we lack basic everything of life: we dont have electricity, we work so hard to supply alternative electricity for our selves while politicians enjoy electricity using tax payers money for fuel, generator and diesel, both at home and offices. They also get paid for using tax payers money. They even get hardship allowance on top using tax payers money to flex.

We dont even have water, Nigerians dig their own water by them selves. And someone said here that I have low self esteem for saying the reality about Nigeria compared to her mates. Politicians will continue to have a free day while they mess around. Get ready becus more of our girls will prostitute while many youths will take to crime.

we will survive all of them since they want to put vat on food stuff.

Just2endowed2:


This government think we haveb excess money I swear

This country has n3ver had it this bad...they have imbibed FEAR in our minds. Its a tactic they used and its working.

Chile, lebanon and Hongkong are all currently protesting matters that are not even half of what Nigerians are enduring.

Hongkong is protesting extradition laws.
Lebanon is protesting increase in tax.
And chile is protesting fare increases also.

In Nigeria...

Sars are killing .
Pos taxes
Banking tax
Border closure
Police brutality
Oppression
Illegal detainment
Tyranny
...the list is endless and YET we are all as calm because we FEAR.


We are just stupid masses led by brilliant leaders.

Banks are trying very hard to make us not patronise them.

Las las na opay app or quickteller app sure pass


Those idiots saw the amount of recharge people make every day via USSD, they now see an opportunity to make more money

Luckily for you maybe the receiving bank is Standard Chattered as well otherwise you must be charges N52....

I trust our network providers in connivance with the banks and the insensitive government, since the charges are time bound, you will be rest assured that you would spent several minutes to complete just a single transaction that ordinarily would be less than a minute.. Wee don saaa..

Meanwhile hope the charges are only limited to recharging, not other money translations with USSD? My app activated asap.

Akinh:

Naaaa....this is a rumour.it cant happen.
Noooo...tell me its a lie.
Very soon we will be charged for withdrawing money.

They have been charging since na . Reason why I stopped

oya start blaming BUHARI

CBN want to monetize everythin now before when you transfer on gtb app the N50 charges goes to GTB buy now the charges is N50 for CBN N25 for Bank

This is crazy, taxation on every angle. And yet our national debt keeps increasing... so where is the money going? Indeed there was a country

It doesn't cost me more than the usual trek to procure my recharge card!

Only if I use the bank application but for ATM and POS no charges

kushercain:
I just got this

Yello, Please note that from Oct 21, we will charge N4 per 20 seconds for USSD access to banking services. Thank you.

I don't understand as in every 20 seconds they'll be removing N4 or each transact is N4?

It's almost the same thing. Each transaction will last nothing less tham 20 seconds.

So it's like saying 4 naira per transaction.

If you got this message from MTN Raise your hand

Meanwhile, the move has just been put to a halt by the federal government
