Popular actress, Gloria Anozie Young, has explained why she caused a scene at a bank recently. Speaking with Punch, the iconic actress, who is married to Norbert Young, said she had to react after the bank refused to refund her N20,000 which was debited from her account since
December 2014.
“I went to use an ATM at Ejigbo, close to NNPC bus-stop in Lagos in December. I wanted to withdraw N20,000 but the machine did not dispense the money after debiting my account. I went to the second machine and it paid me. After six days without hearing a word from the bank, I went to complain. I also went to my bank to report the situation. This was in December. I have gone to them so many times to talk about it but all to no avail.
“Now my lawyer is about to serve them a letter. He has been speaking with them but the bank keeps calling me to beg me instead of paying me my money. The matter has been dragging for too long. I am very angry at my bank because if they cannot fight for me because of N20,000, then they cannot fight for me when it comes to millions of naira. The amount might not sound like a big deal but it can pay some people’s salary. It is not just about me but others who go through similar situations. A letter from my lawyer would soon get to them,” she said.
Bt is dat enough reason to act like dat?

DeleteUna sha wan talk, No ATM can dispense 50k at a go, or does it mean ur dad tried withdrawing 20k twice and 10k once? People too Bobo, we knw ure rich...lol
DeleteMine was Ecobank, got an alert dat 20k has been debited from so so nd so ATM, so had to rush down to the nearest bank becos it was already past 8pm to change my password but surprisingly the fraudsters has already changed it so had to send stop to a certain number that was given to me by one of the bank officials. Anyway to cut the long story short, I latter found out it was done by one of the bank officers whom I show my Atm card to some time back inside dat week wen I was having prob withdrawing.

Yep! I support her move, that 20k is like a million to someone, they're always quick to make such error but slow to correct it.
ReplyDeleteThe day it happened to me and the bank staff asked me to check back in 15 working days, I felt like going for his collar.
~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA LUMIA

DeleteI see nothing wrong in reacting at the bank over her hard earned money. Some bankers can be very very annoying...
ReplyDeleteI have had similar experience using UNION Bank ATM but mad the report to My Bank UBA Plc, the issue was resolved between the both banks and I was credited later though it took time, I had to visit the ATM manager severally who never posted the complaint claiming I gave wrong info not until he was transferred, the new ATM manager helped revisit the form and noticed the error and corrected it and in Two days I was credited.
#Dankwata
I dnt blame her. It can be so frustrating and annoying fot ones money to be withhold by the bank due to erroneous debiting
ReplyDeleteYes ooo nah ur money
ReplyDeleteEven if its 5k, its yours, I know some poor people here will start spitting out nonsense. Its her money.
ReplyDeletenigerians are scared of law suit because it takes too long or justice will not be done, that is why our rights are not respected because they think no repercussion. pls sue them for 100 million
ReplyDeleteOga don't talk like dat.....she has the right to act anyhow she want cos it's her hard earned moni.....
ReplyDeleteWhy do I have a feeling it's Sterling bank? Sterling Bank Staffs I hope you are reading this.... And refund my money since 1st of July!!
ReplyDeleteHahahahahahah..... you is funny
DeleteSue dem criminals using suit to disguise. Try dat shit wit me nd I will shout also even if na 5k I wil shout. Ma in-laws 20k is still pending till date. First Bank is d worst bank eva.
ReplyDeleteIt's he'd hard earned money so she should scream at them. #bankisshh so annoying
ReplyDeleteReading' Fifols Kaments'and laughing my heart out. Remember back then trying to withdraw my last 10k for "stomach infrastructure",Was debited but not given the cash.I thought I was dreaming .24hrs
ReplyDeleteas they said led to 24 days until when I finally saw them that I be real naija guy guy.Seriously its not always funny.I had to go a day without food.
AM STILL FIGHTING MY OWN WITH FIRST BANK,MINE HAPPENED SINCE AUGUST LAST YEAR AND I REPORTED IT THEY KEPT MOVING TO AND FRO ABOUT THE REFUND.I EVEN MET WITH THE BRANCH MANAGER MRS JOHNSON @ RUMUOLA PHC ON THE SUBJECT,BUT SHE TOO DIDNT HELP MATTERS.FIRST BANK IS FRAUDULENT LIKE DEM OTHER BANKS.
ReplyDeleteI love her for that. Is her hard earned money. They should refund it. Ekwekwa nne . Naru ha ego gi weda na 2k or 20k
ReplyDeletePlease its your money and it should be paid to you, have a similar issue with GTB BANK over months now my 9,000 debited has not been returned back to me.
ReplyDeleteIn Nigeria first bank is the worst bank. She should sue them. Which ever bank it is sue them.
ReplyDeleteYou are v correct,First Bank is the worst bank in Nigeria.
DeleteShe is very correct. N1 million minus N1 will not be N1 million again. It's not the size of the money, it's the size of the service that matters.
ReplyDeleteText Fortune to 33020.
THAT WHAT ALL THIS BANKS ARE DOING
ReplyDeleteIS VERY PAINFUL
SHE NEED TO REACT BECAUSE IS HER SWEAT,
I DONT BLAME HERAT ALL
Isnt it funny? Most of the idiots making fun of this woman cant even boast of such amount in their accounts. If this had happened in an organized country like the United States she would have sued the bank and they would pay her more than double the money. This is common thievery from the bank staffs or management.
ReplyDeleteLinda, help us tell her that if she did not complain, she will not get her money back. There is a specified period for such dispute resolution in bank. Her getting a lawyer is kinda too expensive fro N20k transaction. Penny wise, pounds foolish. Tell her to calm down, n get down from her high horse, na Naija we dey. She will get her money but she needs to calm down. .
ReplyDeleteAnd who told you she can't afford the lawyer,20k is just a mere change to her but she choose whoever she wanna dash money too madam.
DeleteBank pple Ndi oshi. Don't liv the money even if it's 1k
ReplyDeleteNa lie...u do broke..shi shi no gum u again.
ReplyDeleteIt is her money, she can cause a scene if she likes.
ReplyDeleteMethinks she is perfectly in order. The problem we usually have is that we tend to pretend to be more civil than the "civilians". For God's sakes, there is a CBN regulation on this that limits reversal time to 24 hours after which the customer can complain. But what you find is that even after the complaint, the usually lazy bank clerks will not treat will complaint. But when you threaten them with lawsuits or tweets on their twitter handle u see action. I suffer this in the hands of Stanbic IBTC all the time and I have a strong suspicion this same bank is Stanbic IBTC. They are zero in treating customers complaint and customer relations.
ReplyDeleteFidelity has my 42k since last year from Lagos and now asaba I have petitioned them no response! I support what she is doing please ride on. When I go to fidelity to ask them, they will say is it that money since last year? Almost as if they are telling to forget it. I have moved all my money to another bank.
ReplyDeleteEven if its 500 u have all the right to act! 20k isn't a change but a cash that can pay some people's salary and house rent. A wise man or woman doesn't let a pin slip out of them without being accounted for!
ReplyDeleteIt's cold it's cold all is cold
THIS MUST BE ACCESS BANK, BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY BANK IN THAT JUNCTION OF EJIGBO - NNPC AREA, THEY ARE FOND OF DOING THIS ...HOW I WISH SHE SCATTERED THE BANKING HALL. HOW WILL THEY BE DEBITING SOMEONE WHEN THERE IS NO MONEY IN THEIR ATM MACHINE. ABI THEY WANT TO GET RICH WITH MY SWEAT?
ReplyDeleteBanks too can make mistakes
ReplyDeleteGTB is the best bank in Naija, happened to me twice with them and I got my money back within 5days.
ReplyDeleteExactly,diamond bank is the worse if you dnt create a scene you're not getting your money mine was 20k I had to create a scene a coming over and over for complete one week
DeleteLinda, you re doing a nice job, everyday comments here rock my ribs and i forget my worries.
ReplyDeleteLinda, you re doing a nice job, everyday comments here rock my ribs and i forget my worries.
ReplyDeleteLet her react o wat rubbish dats wat gtb did to me too, madam drag dem well
ReplyDeleteI have a similar case, I used an ecobank ATM card on sky bank pos machine, my account was debited while the account of the shop owner was not credited, I complained, since June 2014 the N12000. Is still hanging, if this Lady should recover her money through legal action I will file suit against the Bank
ReplyDeleteDis banks can be very annoying......abeg, make una pay her jare

Please tell us what bank it is so if we have accounts with them, we close it. Or avoid these banks. Pls it's the principle
ReplyDeleteIt her money let her do whatever she want
ReplyDeleteSame thing happened to my mum..Ecobank jst debited her 20k like dat..nd things were so hard..she waka tire..to no avail..anyways ndo..do dem o..if u can
ReplyDeleteEven if it is a kobo it is your money and you should demand it. They will not let go of even half a kobo if there is anything like that
ReplyDeleteI agree with you jare
ReplyDeleteBanks are always doing this...i think some in house sharp guys wait on those who would not bother and side track those funds..too bad experience to have especially if thats your last cash..
ReplyDeleteThis has also happened to me. I had a 9,000 dispense error at the orange bank via web pay for 76 days. I filled several dispense error forms, called their help center severally. Even submitted proof that the intended merchant purchase site provided me as evidence that they didn't receive the money, still it took them that long to reverse the error.Until I literally choked a certain customer care rep was it reversed.
ReplyDeleteI noticed these bankers use the dispense error as an avenue to pilfer funds from customers&use the money to make more money through investments or if the customer forgoes the total amount they pocket it as gain. Dispense Error stealing is the latest form of theft in Nigerian Banks.If Mrs Young needs a witness to assist her to sue the bank sign me up cos I ve been there.I know how she feels.I ve a mail trail that proves their theft.
