A Nigerian man shared the steps he took to link his account and what he experienced.
Many people said they experienced almost the same thing while trying to link their accounts.
Reacting,
While some banks have asked their customers to visit their branches for the exercise, others provided online means of linking BVN and NIN to accounts.
Kunle Dee shared a post on X, saying the process was simple using the USSD code provided by Zenith Bank.
Kunle said the self-service link provided by GTB sent an error code after the last step of the process.

Reactions to BVN/NIN linking methods
@lance458 said: “First Bank and Polaris Bank Ltd do not even have a digital way of doing it.”
@kunledee said: “Heard for UBA, you need to write a letter.”
@seyidoxa said: “I was able to submit the form for GTB. I hope they get to act on it. Perhaps you didn’t generate the captcha image before submitting it.”
@lekeleke1 “Honestly, I was at GTB yesterday and today, and no headway. The so called number one needs to dial to generate a code isn’t working and you get charged N20 at each trial. Such rubbish and time wasting.
@aytaiwo said: “Spent less than 20 minutes at Zenith yesterday for linking.”
