    Hello morning, i want tp know the maximum balance, one can have in a savings account and Gcrea8 account (student account) respectively.

    1. Hello Samuel Abimbola Oladipupo,
      You should be taking about minimum balance not maximum balance. You can have any amount on your student account but if you are called upon to provide evidence or prove of ownership (how you earn the money), you have to be ready to do so.

  21. Please I made a transfer from my Gtb to my Ecobank and was debited immediately (this isn’t the first time I’m transferring from my Gtb to my Ecobank), but the money didn’t reflect in my Ecobank account , instead I got an immediate SMS from Ecobank saying my account has been updated to Tier 3 and that I should visit any Ecobank branch with a valid ID. What exactly is the problem?

    1. Hello Andrew,
      The money has successfully been transferred to your Ecobank account, visit your bank (Ecobank) to find out why the money you transferred did not reflect in your account. You bank (Ecobank) should be able to tell us what has happened to the money.

  22. HELLO
    I DID BUSINESS WITH OJO ANTHONY THE MONEY HE TOLD ME THAT HE DID INSTANT PAYMENT FROM GTBANK TO LEONARD OBIAKOR DIAMOND BANK ON WEDNESDAY DID NOT REFLECTED TO THE DIAMOND BANK ACCOUNT ARE THEY TRYING TO FRAUD ME OR WHAT ?

    1. Hello Offor,
      Ask him what he meant by “instant payment” I mean what means did he use in transferring the money to you. If he did instant payment through mobile banking, the money should reflect immediately.

    1. Hello tomiwa benson,
      It is possible that the money has been transfer to your SKYBANK account without you receiving credit alert or have you check your sky bank account balance? If you check your skybank account balance and your account was not credited, visit your bank (GTBank) to find out what happened.

    thanks

    1. Hello Victor,
      Yes, that is likely the problem. You have to go back to the bank again for your account updates or use any GTbank ATM machine close to you to update and validate your mobile phone number.

  25. Hi! I don’t have a GTB debit card but I have a token. Does this mean I need a debit card to authenticate funds transfer? I hope this is not the case. Been trying to get this but all I see is debt card debt card (last 4 digits to authenticate. I anticipate your speedy response as usual.

    1. Hello Abiye Briggs,
      To make fund transfer using the USSD Code above, you need the last 4 digits number of GTBank debit card to authenticate the fund transfer. Therefore, having a debit card is a must because this last 4 digits number that they are referring to is in front of the debit card. The GTBank Token is for online transaction such as online fund transfer, payments, online shopping etc.

  26. I tried to transfer some money from my gtbank account in Nigeria tru gtbank mobile app from Ghana to a diamond bank account in Nigeria and after sending the compled form, i was told transfer in progress… later i needed to check the process and tried to login again but i was told my account has been blocked. Pls what do i do since i m not goin back to Nigeria anytime soon?

    1. Hello Uche,
      You attempted logging into your account from a place (Ghana) GTbank could not identify as you attempting the login . Your I.P address is showing Ghana address while the transaction you are making should be done within Nigeria.

      If you subscribe for GTbank email alert, check your email to see if GTbank send you an email alert for your anonymous login attempt. If you check your email and they send you a mail, you may be ask to reset your password if you are not the one attempting the login. However, you may need to visit your bank or call GTBank help line to unblock your mobile account.

  27. Hello I want to transfer from my gtb ussd code to my siblings account and when I entered is NUBAN NO it gives invalid account he even send some other account number again invalid what should I do

    1. Hello Opeyemi,
      Possible causes of the error are:
      1. if the network line ( the phone number) you are using to transfer the money is not link to your account
      2. network problem.
      3. if you are entering wrong password
      4. if you are entering wrong CVV.

  28. Hello trying to transfer money from my GT acct to a stanbic but i keep getting unable to validate acct details wat does this mean???

  29. This easy way can be counter productive and you can easily be robbed. It happened to me. All the person did was to look at the receipt from a POS payment I made, took the last 4 digits and used my phone after a made a short call while it was charging and did the transfer. Luckily I checked my phone when charging was complete and I saw the debit.

    1. Hello Iboro Ekanem,
      You are wrong! You don’t divulge your POS receipt or your payment receipt and you don’t keep your phone any how. Thank you for your contribution.

  30. Am using savings account and one of my customer wants to transfer 500,000 to me but cant recieve d amount coz am using savings account

  31. Hello Yewande,
    You’ve exceed your daily limit transfer. The maximum transfer per transaction is N20, 000 naira. So, you can transfer the next N20, 000 naira after 24hours. This is why it was not going through.

    1. Udoh, I will suggest you first visit any GTBank close to your location in Ghana. This is because if your GTBank ATM card is not functional there, you won’t be able to make use of the above code to transfer money to fidelity bank.

  32. Hi Emma. I suppose that *737*1* is for gtb to gtb, while *737*2* is for gtb to other banks. However when i tried to transfer with the second code to my fidelity bank, i was present with a list of just five other banks to choose from. Then when i tried using *737*1* i am told that my account number is invalid, what shoyld be the problem?

    1. Geoffery,
      Cross- Check to see if the phone number you are using for this transaction is link to your account. If It is linked, sorry for the inconvenience. It is suppose to be network problem. The problem will be rectify within 48hours.

  33. Boss! Wat is d maximum I can transfer from gtb to gtb at once and is this code still working presently? Cus am having some difficulties here!

    1. Hello Isreal,
      050 is Ecobank code.
      You don’t need your Ecobank code in transferring money from your GTbank account to Ecobank account.
      To transfer money from your GTbank account to your Ecobank account, dial *737*1*Amount*NUBAN Account No#
      *where the NUBAN Account No. is your Ecobank bank account number, you are transferring the money to.

      For example; To transfer N5000 from your GTbank account to Ecobank account
      Dial *737*1*5000*your Ecobank acc no.# from the mobile phone number registered with or linked to your GTBank account.
      Then enter the last four digits of your GTBank Naira MasterCard to authenticate the transaction.
      Wait for the transaction to be completed.
      You will receive an SMS alert at once indicating that your transfer was very successful.

    1. Hello Funke, the best way is to send the money via western union money transfer. Otherwise, the person she wants to transfer the money to in Nigeria has to open a GTbank Domiciliary account. After the DOM account has been open, your sister can now transfer the money to the person via international wire transfer.

  34. There are only 5 bank codes available and dis does not include Ecobank, Skybank,FCMB etc. How do I get the code for Ecobank?

  35. Why is it that i cannot send more than NGN20000 per transaction? Is this not rendering the process incomplete and a bit immatured?

  36. Sir i want to know more about the Nuban. Is the nuban the account number am tranfering from or the account number am transfering to. Pls explain more. Thank you

      1. Please, your response to this question is wrong. The NUBAN in the code means the 10 digit account number of the account you’re transferring to. Since your phone number is already linked to your account the system recognises it as the sending account, what it doesn’t know is the receiving account.

    1. ISRAEL, NUBAN account number is your bank account number.

      NUBAN means Nigeria Uniform Bank Account Number, a 10-digit Bank Account numbering system which is simpler to use than traditional longer account numbering structures and is in line with requirements of the West Africa Monetary Institute, towards the economic integration of ECOWAS countries.

    1. Oluwafemi,
      Yes! You can transfer money from GTBANK TO MAIN STREET BANK OR SKY BANK by using the second USSD Code
      *737*1*Amount*NUBAN Account No#
       Example *737*1*1000*1234567890# (from the mobile phone number registered with GTBank)
