Most of them dont have a customer waiting area, with enough seats. Those that have just provide like 4-seats for a queue of 20-people. <BR/><BR/>My ATM is still not working: http://naijatechtalk.wordpress.com/2008/01/25/the-uba-and-its-shitty-business/mypenmypaperhttp://mypenmypaper.wordpress.com[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-37293115540734432492008-02-07T16:22:00.000+01:002008-02-07T16:22:00.000+01:00I disagree. Banking in Nigeria is so far advanced from when I first moved here in 2004.<BR/><BR/>Back then my local Zenith was a cattle market, now we have orderly queues and no pushing and shoving.<BR/><BR/>I can now pay my Starcomms, MTN, Multichoice bills online with no fuss. The online service works well and makes your account easy to manage.<BR/><BR/>Every time I make a transaction I get an immediate email so I can always see what my wife is doing! (thanks to blackberry)<BR/><BR/>I have a card which allows me to withdraw from an ATM and also pay at many shops.<BR/><BR/>There is now a branch in every neighbourhood...too many almost!<BR/><BR/>Customer Service can be improved but that is not just a banking issue in Nigeria.<BR/><BR/>true they have not yet grasped the idea of manageable loans but still they have advanced a long long way.<BR/><BR/>My report would be solid progress, keep developing.Anonymous[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-8845914977721648582008-02-07T13:17:00.000+01:002008-02-07T13:17:00.000+01:00I have bank accounts in 6 different african countries and Nigeria must be the worst. Although I get relatively ok service nowadays, i still have strong memories of maltreatment when I was starting with GTB and Zenith. They were really nasty and one cashier even told me to carry my market elsewhere. Of course, as soon as I had enough money, I promptly did . They don't have a sense that the small man today might becoem the big man tomorrow. There's need to be a campaign against them - to wake them up.adeyemi[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-27202490874378294242008-02-07T11:30:00.000+01:002008-02-07T11:30:00.000+01:00I almost thought you were talking about Natwest. I think you have this nailed on. I don't have 1st hand experience, but I have been told that Nigerian banking isn't still up to scratch.ababoypart2http://www.blogger.com/profile/07587410229783052997[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-72980204409607995052008-02-07T09:28:00.000+01:002008-02-07T09:28:00.000+01:00spot on.Hassan[email protected]
