Though I do not like the idea of what our banks are doing, they are behaving as if they BDC, when you want to make payment online they charge you the black market exchange rate but when you want to collect WU, then they charge you CBN official rate…abeg…wetin?
Hello Iroko,
You’re right, best time to earn in dollar. However, I bet you; our commercial banks will never want to let you withdraw the dollar.
They will charge you at black market exchange rate when you want to make online payment; and push you to sell your dollar to them at CBN official rate (interbank exchange rate) rather than allowing you to withdraw it.
