  61. Hi, I’m Abijah Inyene, I tried recharging my line through my account, I tried it twice because the first time didn’t respond due to poor network though, the second time responded but I am debited for the two trials. Why? I’m complaining is because this is the second time this has happened to me in first bank yet without refunding. I am really frown at it.

    • To be candid I am not impressed at all with first bank, and I will encourage people banking with them to look for other alternative of banks, since June 25th that my account has been debited with 7150 from pos terminal, yet no refund despite taking the necessary steps. Its high time I sensitize and stop banking with you guys. First bank is no longer reliable.
