But, TF did I do wrong? What conversation did I have with God that made him think I deserve to be in Nigeria?
Why are these corporate thieves gonna charge us for USSD transactions again? NSP charges already. All these charges & nothing to show for it except intense suffering.😭

What the heck is this? Are we going to accept this rubbish scam. So we pay per 20 seconds for USSD and still get charged for the service? These banks have invented all means to steal from us? What are banks for? To save money buy it seems money in a hole is better! pic.twitter.com/N0dc3xYrxj

If you don’t have your bank mobile app… time to download it and register it so that this USSD nonsense will not pain u too much…
Country is not working yet they are still stressing innocent citizens.*spits
