After EQ's Story, Access Bank Credits Lagos Entrepreneur’s Dollar Account

Access Bank has credited the domiciliary account belonging to Babalola Martins, a Lagos State-based entrepreneur, with $23.70.

This came after EQ reported how the bank debited the sum from the entrepreneur’s account without his consent in early November.

“My dollar account was credited with the $23.70 that was indiscriminately debited from my account by Access Bank on November 7,” said Martins.

“That’s about five days after you published a story on the incident. Thank you so much, EQ. I appreciate your help,” he said.

“On the issue of the other $13.89 that was first debited from my account without my authorisation on July 29, Access Bank has said they are currently working on it and they would also reverse it as soon as possible.

“Thank you once again, EQ.”

On November 2, EQ reported how Access Bank debited $13.89 and $23.70 respectively from Martins’ domiciliary account without his consent. The deductions occurred on July 29 and October 5.

After the deductions, the entrepreneur wrote several emails and also paid a few visits to the bank’s branches but the issue remained unresolved.

Martins eventually reported the matter to EQ on November 1.
