Account Restrictions

If you are unable to make a transfer and are seeing the error message "Restricted Account," there is a PND on your account

There are several possible reasons for this restriction:

1. Fraudulent Inflow: Your account may have received a suspicious or fraudulent inflow, leading to an automatic restriction for security reasons.
2. Exceeding Account Limits: If you exceed the transaction limits associated with your current KYC level, your account will be restricted in accordance with CBN regulations.
3. KYC Issues: Incomplete or outdated KYC (Know Your Customer) information can also result in account restrictions.

To avoid account restrictions due to transaction or account limit issues, ensure your KYC is upgraded to Level 3 by providing accurate and necessary documentation and information for KYC approval. This will remove transaction limits and prevent further restrictions.

Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions or require additional information.

PND means your bank account has been restricted from making any debit transactions. This includes transfers, withdrawals, card usage, and bill payments. The account can only receive money, but cannot send or spend until the restriction is lifted

Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions or require additional information.

If you’re unable to carry out transactions like transfers or withdrawals, and you receive messages such as:

• "Transaction not permitted."
