Lady Begs CBN to Permanently Scrap POS Businesses, Reveals Why

 

A Nigerian woman has begged the Central Bank of Nigeria to close all POS businesses in the country.

 

According to the lady, the activity of POS businesses has stopped ATM centres from functioning properly nationwide.

 

She wrote: “I need the CBN to destroy this business of POS. Bring back ATMs, wtf. It’s so bad that airports don’t have ATMs, not at malls, nowhere.

@eniturn: “That POS is the reason why some people can feed their families and not go hungry. If the ATM is your preferred choice, use it. If it’s POS, use it. Don’t bring people down because you don’t want to pay 100 naira charges.”

 

@flowzki: “i’m sure you cannot give any reasonable reason why POS business is bad, they are making things faster, the ATM queues were getting longer and the machines not any better or improved.”

 

@OloriOfOloris: “Na who ATM never swallow their card dey talk this kind thing. I hate any issue that will take me to the bank. POS will go nowhere in Jesus name.”

 

@Francheski64: “Too late , the cost of managing ATM and cost of cash transit will be off the roof with the current inflation, I don’t think any bank wants to run ATMs again , it something I did for a while , it very expensive and most ATMs where running on a loss.”

 

@Dolipeepe: “They have their advantages, they save valuable time people spend on queues at the ATMs Some communities are far away from bank branches, residents used to journey to the major towns for financial transactions. What the CBN needs to do is to shine their light on banks.”

 

@thatpoetclem: “They make things easier but can be frustrating sometimes, the charges can be ridiculous at times, it should be optional.”
