So, I received a good amount of money into my first bank .

And they automatically freeze the .

Something less than 100k.

So, I went to the bank to find out what the issue was about and they said I need to do KYC documentation.

My NIN and BVN are already with this people and I've been using this same since 2015!

Ok, let me do the KYC na, they say my name doesn't match and I need to swear affidavit.

I went to court to do affidavit and then they submitted it and ask me to come back next week Wednesday.

The thing sha weak me because I no get any money to sustain myself till that Wednesday.

But the worst is the utility bill requirements. The ask me to come with NEPA bill. I told her that I stay in the university hostel.

The next thing she said was that I should go to the university management and collect their NEPA bill and bring it to them shocked

I was like how in hell will that be possible? 🤷

Right now, I don't know what step to take sha. Because who for school management go gree give student school NEPA bill to go complete the student's bank ?

I got a utility bill receipt from my hostel management during my own time. There is nothing wrong there.

The was probably operated as a student all this while and needs to be upgraded now that a reasonable amount of money entered it.

It is fraudulent to use the utility bill from a house that is not within the address you gave the bank.

Its a security check.

Mayb dat amount never hit ur b4.

But banks be asking for KYC shits when u r broke n hopeless. As if dem dey know

U for frown wella when asked to provide university electricity bill.. Get someone's bill esp dis ones bought online nowadays. Carry am go. Visit anoda branch or same branch but different staff.. Start ur story all over and tell dem u stay at sososo. Address on the bill u must av gotten frm somewhere else.


Na why u need learn how to improvise and keep ur head up when answering banks question. Most mofo dey employ dont knw sh*t. Dey keep asking drab questions HQ will never ask.

I guess it's your bvn details that didn't match your details..To correct bvn details, it takes 48 hours.
For the utility bill, if your parents live in the same town you opened the , you can use that bill..You can use your school hostel receipt in your name too.
They just need proof of address from you.

If they refuse to give you your money just seize one of their small laptops and don't let go until they answer you.

They didn’t want to know their customer when you were broke. But now money don enter your akant they want to know you. All the steps you took was more than enough they just want to make you suffer.

Nigeria is a country that makes life so hard for the poor.

That is another way. But I have also seen a situation whereby someone just went to the bank to open an just a day after the bank officials came to if he actually lived in the house.
