-This increase in demands from Nigerians for the digital wallet which has become the best alternative to a commercial bank, has forced many of them to experience overcrowded network congestion since everyone now relies on their networks to carry out transactions without facing any issues.
Nigerian commercial banks were not ready for the immediately and forced policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria that brought increase in the number of customers who used their mobile banking network. They failed to upgrade their system and technology to the latest, so when there were too many transactions happening at once, the system become overloaded and that is when we experience all sorts of issues from a slow network, to failed transactions with debits. Another reason for this is that, we have experienced the spirit of Japa among the tech bros because these banks pay peanuts for a job. When they resign, these banks may go and hire inexperienced guys for a little pay. And the results is what we are seeing. We shouldn't be carried away with the transaction speed of OPAY, PALMPAY, MONIEPOINT, at the moment. If they remain consistent in the quality of their service delivery in the next two years, then we will commend them. But for now, they may just turn out to be another Zenith bank in metamorphosis.

The truth be say this banks don't value customer review as they have no effect in the Nigerian market, if na outside make dem mumu this thing and dem go see how their stock go just fall and wipe them out of business.
Not only that banks don't value their customers. The truth of the matter be sae banks no d kukuma pay the IT guys well wey d deliver bank transaction. The amount wey bank d pay them no d make sense. No why you see most of the IT guys d travel leave the bank job to a more better place wey d go value and pay them well. You supposed ask why em be sae peso no fit experience this kind outside country cos for there IT's guys are paid heavily. Them no suppose to F-up for a day. The worst of everything wey the happen for this our country be sae, house of senate and representative no d like raise this kind pressing issues wey Nigerians d experience. Na why you go see banks, Dstv, network(Mtn, glo, airtel) and other big companies d treat Nigerians as d like without fear of our governments questioning them heavily.
My dear,we don tire for this country oooh, nothing is working in this country currently everything was scattered, the worst one na wen you suffer stand for queue in the bank,when e reach your turn you enter inside after you complain them go tell you say network no dey,you fit don spend the whole day standing oooh, what a country is this for Christ sake, government no they standard,court go talk another man go disobey,na die we dey ooh..
The issue with commercial banks' networks is just annoying, and no one really knows why it started when the new currency policy went into effect. Doh, there was an increase in transactions and customers, and opay is currently experiencing the same issue with failed transactions even with their lightning network. It's also annoying that they have really poor customer care when you want to file a complaint. Commercial banks should really work on this.
Banks dey really fuck up these days, you will be debited and the supposed receiver nor go see the money still dem nor go return am. Ii I begin to count the transactions that I have been debited and the receiver never still see am till date, you will ask me why I have not been to the bank or reported the case to their customer care via the phone, but I have and still nothing.
In total now, it is 25,000 to one access bank account
4,100 to another access bank account
3,500 to one fidelity bank account and
2,500 to one Unity bank.
Bank nor be small challenges these days, to even enter the bank to lay complaint so they can handle it immediately, it has become a problem.

*Could there be any other better explanation to why even online transactions and the recent online apps for swift money transfer and other transactions, OPAY, PALMPAY are experiencing same network issue, although it is not as severe as that affecting bank apps and their USSD codes?
As everybody dun dey move go OPAY, PALMPAY, KUDA, CARBON and all the others, their network go soon dey choke too as we dey experience small small, my hope na say make crowd nor go crash their server. 
U knw jst b4 nw, does palmpay, Opay, moniepoint nd d rest of dem bin dey do well. D issue bin dey reserved 2 bank apps bt of recent, dis guys don ce aboard d network wahala. E heat me 2day nd I do lik 2 different same transaction b4 e go tru. I evn try buy light days bck, e no gree generate my reg name 2 proceed wth d process.
The Opay issue don happen to me like 5 times this week, because due to the no cash policy, na this Opay wey been dey help me most of the times when bank app dey misbehave. And it can only take a seller who knows you to let you go after you transfer and after an house he/she never see alert due to the poor network. Because same thing happened to me on Sunday evening, as I entered market to go buy Garri, made a transfer of #2k to my seller, showed her the receipt on my Opay app, only for her to call me the yesterday (Monday) morning say she never still see alerts oh, but only for the alert to arrive an hour later and she called to inform me. Because in most case people for don think say you don scam them, which is very bad, and at such, and I go really like am if everything goes back to normal I don't know if am the only one who has had problems recently when trying to complete transactions using mobile apps or USSD codes.
Things weren't like this till the new monetary policies and the just concluded presidential elections came. Am not attributing the poor network reception as the main factor for failed transactions, but it is contributory to why there is consistent failed transactions.

D closest explanation I ft giv b4, d workload way con mount on these apps don pass there carrying capacity way dem bin dey built on. E no strange say, many dey fine way out 2 escape dis scarcity of fiat notes matter nd as such, na 2 pay wth ATM card or transfer wen we gt d chance nd dat dey work d system more. Come fiat notes, we go get som stability.
Due to the way the country be na wey be say money no dey anywhere and the kind charge wey POS people dey collect don make people dey do only online transactions, and the level of online banking transactions wey people dey do now come plenty well well pass before nai come dey make bank network dey worry, (na so me I think o)because every body come dey buy and sale their commodities just with online banking transactions only, so now e don choke...
Before now, many banks have poor banking infrastructures and the new CBN cashless policy brought about a surge in online transactions as individuals and SMEs are resorting to online transactions like POS and bank transfers. As such there are lot of traffic which is one of the reasons for the poor network, delay and failed transactions. I was debited 5k by UBA last 2weeks when I wanted to make a transfer, I was lucky it got reversed after 5days. I've three digital wallets Opay, Alat and Chippercash, so far I think I'm more satisfied with Opay services as I rarely encounter issues when performing transactions with it.
As the matter be, some places around Lagos are reported to have started accepting the old Naira notes, while some are still contemplating, waiting for who would begin the collection. Even bank sef not get network, as the matter be so.
Is this the kind of network the BEVAS capture machine would use in uploading results of oncoming governorship elections?
Let's be praying sha. It will soon be over I believe.
*For those who use Access bank, the USSD code for transfer is *710#. It is no longer the former which was *901#.
The issue with recycling of the old naira note have been greeted with a lot of misconceptions and this has resulted in divided conclusion as regards that subject matter, and I saw from my inner eyes that both the CBN, and Supreme Court are working hand in hand, if not why will it take supreme court thos long to make this judgement and what are the measures put in place to ensure strick adherence to the Supreme Court judgement by the cbn.

-I go access the bank on Monday and the bank offered to pay me the old naira notes in 1000 denominations but with a condition that I could not return it back to the bank if rejected by the general public if I want to deposit it back I will have to go to CBN to do so, so I had to reject their offer and walk away, what Nigerians want fo to hear is a statement from the central bank governor or Buhari on the status of the old Naira notes. 3
Would their ego or pride let them admit to the current hardship they have put Nigerians in?
E no concern them. They have access to the new Naira notes, why would they bother about the plight of the common man who needs cash, but is offered old notes which can't be spent easily instead?
Na we go begin dey campaign to traders or merchants that they should start accepting the old notes, because na watin bank give us o. I have succeeded in spending my old #500naira today, without much convincing. Infact, it was the trader telling me to come and buy, he accepted the old notes joyfully as well.

This network problem don de promote go to another level, I know say this cashless policy no go last long because we know to say we no get a better network wey go fir run am; Every working day now, if you go bank, you go see crowed and 90% of them come to complain of incomplete transactions.Things weren't like this till the new monetary policies and the just concluded presidential elections came.

Bank apps no de work again for the afternoon, sometimes person need to wait for the night before they fit do a successful transaction, I just hope say Government go do something about this cashless policy after the election.
How far guys how una Dey, I no understand the levels the country they head to anymore. First them been talk say the cash less issues, na to better the country economy and on the side prevent election corruption.
The presidential election is over, no be only just that The Supreme Court has ordered the use of the old note until December 31st but yet the presidency hasn’t said anything yet now coupled with network and transactions problems.

I’ve had bad experiences with USSD code before and promised myself never to use it again. It’s a shame that the banks have not been able to perfect the ussd transfer, most times wire transfers done through this method have problems. For this reason I only use mobile bank apps, the transaction receipt on mobile app always put to rest doubts or disputes. Some banks have a WhatsApp bot where you can make wire transfers, and personally I haven’t had problems with that either.
Infact, d network failure is adding to the hardship cashless policy is causing in our country. Network will not allow transaction to be successful, and some people will send money to their love ones but they will not receive the money and the sender will be debited which is really causing some fear to people not to accept transfer in their various businesses. If dis bad network continue till next month, I guess there will be a massive damage in people business and it will also affect many POS business too. If bank and opay can lack network in this season, what is the way forward? Hope MTN, GLO and Airtel will not experience the same thing soon.

-the reason why blockchain stands out in transaction processing and networks consumption Binancee fall in this category and trying to compare binance to any traditional banking system, is like comparing the speed of an aeroplane vs a bicycle.
