GoodFaith:


So your phone don't have ?
How do they by your phone ?

I learnt the hard way.
Just like police explained;
They don't need the phone.
They will put the SIM card into a feature phone and access the SIM.Reason why we all need to use SIM card lock.
My case,I didn't lock the SIM card.and it was stolen on Sunday too, while I was on transit.

The way I run now whenever I hear Access Bank. Two weeks ago I was scammed, reported the case to the bank, till date I still receive notification case email from them but nothing has been done. Same bank freezed my cos someone paid in money that is not even big lolz.

The criminal mentioned first bank and access bank.i watched him iife.so dont exclude first bank upon all their gagara yet so easy to manipulate.

Access Bank is actually the most useless bank when it comes to security.
All fraudsters that ve been paraded that I ve seen always point it out that with Access bank it is easy.

Misplace ur fone and that's all.

My uncle was a victim last year as well. His fone was pickpocketed and all the money in his acct was wiped out and those fraudsters also went ahead to take payday loan of close too 100k and trust me Access bank was not helpful at all in retrieving the money plus the payday loan was automatically deducted from his next salary.
They couldn't even trace the bank acct of the recipient

It was actually a long tussle plenty of mails and in fact legal battle before the money was reversed inclusive of the payday loan earlier deducted.

Trust me that was one of the reasons I made up my mind neva to use my Access and my Old Diamond acct again.

Wow! I love that part. I don't bank with Access Bank

My sim card requires pin each time I switched off and on my phone. No chance for hackers

I lost my ATM card recently and after the little funds in my was wiped off by fraudsters, I blocked the card and the mobile app but I've gotten this pending debit message twice even tho I've not funded the since then. I just want to know if the is still safe when I'm ready to fund it?? Cuz I don't understand why I'm still getting this pending debits after blocking the card.

1x2x3:


Yes I did but not through the bank. Police tracked the fraudster and arrested him before I was refunded the amount and all I spent to get him.

Can you imagine?you have to still spend money to track the fraudster that stole from the bank due to the lack of good security.

1x2x3:


I don't know suing them would help you. It what you lost was much then you could go for the criminal through the police.

okay, thank you

Someone is trying to pay or transfer money with your debit card on flutter wave or so

That of using your SIM to buy airtime from your bank is all the banks, if the SIM is MTN

Habayomie:
I agree with him.
That was how my was wiped when pickpockets stole my phone and even use my SIM to borrow money .
Those guys used all to buy recharge card and transferred to different SIMs.
Access Bank needs to step up their tech security.
Polaris Bank is better (you will need a before you can recharge your bank linked SIM)

PresidentAtiku:
Almost all scam and Yahoo on Facebook Use Access Bank to defraud.

You will see all those posts on Facebook groups using sick children or family pictures asking you to assist with 1,000 2,000 ,5000 nothing is too small, all na SCAM and na access bank. See sample one of the f**ls just posted to a church group. HEARTLESS DEMONS

Very terrible KYC procedures by the bank making it easy to be used

CBN should look into that bank

Very useless bank. If you can get access to someone's sim card, number, and date of birth, you can easily reset their pin.

Henrolla:
Why do you think it's called "Access Bank"?


The Access na Express. No stress

you make me laugh

Are you sure you have blocked the card?

How did you block it

Is it safe to fund the ? What do I do?

Nisiw366:

How did you block it

I called first bank to block it and they said they blocked it. I even asked them to deactivate the mobile app and it's been done.

Then they didnt block it.
Go to the bank and Block the debit card and apply for new debit card. You can fund the once that is done

Skyfornia:
Still the best bank for online transactions...their mobile app is second to none. Simple and efficient...
If a client transfer money to you, whether you received alert or not, you can easily confirm by checking the mobile app.

Modified:
All these guys quoting me and cussing...wetin happen nah? Are you depressed?? Channel the energy somewhere else that's profitable.

I have s in 3 different banks and I can tell you Access is the best among the three. Choose your bank and allow me choose mine. No be fight...

Ewu. This is obviously a staff of a failed institution. Fix your shit and stop selling nonsense.

The exact same thing happened to me. And someone will come here to defend them. Tah! They are the stupidest bank ever.

Okay, thanks.

mcdreeezy:


Okay, thanks.

Some banks have where you can block debit card and unblock it when you want to use it.

Its on Mobile app. Access bank have such feature

But I'm confused about something. The is currently empty, so how is it possible to get pending debit on an empty ?

But I've deactivated the mobile app. I can't as I'm talking with you now. I want to believe they can't get too?

Mobile app is just for financial transactions.

Deactivating mobile app can't stop someone from debiting your

So they don't need to to your mobile app to debit your

The only way is to block the debit card

The most useless bank so far.. pls I’m a victim . They cleared and wrecked me through my AccessBank, as I no die. It’s a long story I tell ya. My advice is never put reasonable amount of money in that acc they’re useless

They sent otp. If you input the otp, the transaction will fail because of insufficient funds
That message in the screenshot is the last stage of the transaction which will still fail because of insufficient funds.

PS: That isn't pending debit alert and besides the otp has expired

SAFETY TIPS INCASE YOUR PHONE GETS MISSING

To deactivate mobile banking you can use any phone to do it provided you know your phone number. Just dial this in any phone

Access ---> *901*911#
GTB ---> *737*51*74#
FirstBank --> *894*911#
UBA --> *919*911#
Zenith ---> *966*911#

I hope this helps... May God help us all

If it's not a pending debit, then what is it? It's clearly stated there, pending debit.

Almost all the banks are guilty of not needing a to recharge your bank linked sim. First bank, GTB, Eco, Access, Zenith are all culprits. It's only UBA & then polaris (i don't know about the others not listed) that's different
