Access Staff Sack And Denial: Over 1000 Sacked And Was Not Paid Off by Y2kdon: 9:31pm On May 30, 2020
Access bank unjustly sacked its Support Staff after spending years with them. Tellers, Customer Service Officers,Security guards,Drivers and Cleaners were sacked.

This is the bank we all worked for and represented wholeheartedly throughout our stay in service.

As a Customer Service Officer (CCO) I would protect them from customer bashing and attempted defamation in explaning and pacifying customers anger, even with all the illegal recoup of fund and debit entries on customers accounts E.g multiple unsolicited ATM cards issuance fee, SMS alert fee( This one don't even calculate because you lose count of it) card maintenance fee, recoup of fund for non-existed transactions (ATM and online trasactions).

Access bank cares less about their Support staff who do virtually all the work in the bank(Customer complaint and enquiry, cash and tellering, Fund transfer,ATM services, etc) and yet discard them like rags just to maximize profit.

It's still disheartening that over a 1000 of us(Support Staff) are laid off on the 1st May 2020 (MAYDAY) and NO BENEFIT or SEVERANCE was paid to us for the undiluted services throughout these years. And the worst was that they go about to deny that "NOBODY WAS SACKED" That it's a rumor. Just to save face in the market populace. This is a bank donating billions and palliatives all in the name of assisting to fight the impact of COVID-19 pandemic, yet sacked some of its loyal staff who have laboured for years without benefit same period it was doling out billions and palliatives. What a hypocrite! What a bank!!

We worked days and weekends including Sundays to see that things were right. Especially during Post-Intercontinental bank merger and during Post-Diamond Bank merger. We slept on the chairs and on empty cartons and would leave the office sometimes at midnight and this is how we were paid? It's well.

I can't recount all here in writings. All we are asking Access Bank is to pay us off because we deserve it and to cushion the impact of this COVID-19. Our years of loyal service cannot be in vain. Access Bank should not deny us by tagging us "Non-essential Staff acquired from Diamond bank" because we were not those, but support Staff of Access Bank.

I knew CBN's directive is audio. Jobs will be lost in every sector, no doubt.
