The Central Bank of Nigeria has urged customers to report banks that refuse to sell Basic Travel Allowance and Personal Travel Allowance to them. The apex bank said this in a statement on Tuesday. It said it has reliably gathered that some banks are turning back customers that come to purchase BTA/PTA and forex for pilgrimage.
It said: “We hereby appeal to bank customers to go straight to their banks to buy forex as the CBN has supplied enough dollars to the Banks to meet needs in the invisible segment.
“Customers are hereby enjoined to report any bank that refuses to attend to their legitimate demands within 24 hours.
“Please, call 07002255226. Isaac Okorafor, Ag. Director, Corporate Communications.”
