The outage left several customers stranded during transactions. One affected customer, who requested anonymity, described his experience at a shopping hall in Amuwo-Odofin Local Government Area. He had purchased goods worth N33,150 but couldn’t take them home as he was unable to complete payment due to the service failure.
“I tried to transfer the money to the salesperson, but it didn’t go through. I then attempted to use my ATM card, but that also failed,” he explained.
Similarly, Irene Chinasaokwu, a mother of three residing in Ajegunle, reported being unable to receive money from her sister, who informed her that Access Bank’s platform was down. “I had to borrow from my neighbour, hoping to repay when the service was restored,” she said.
Chinasaokwu confirmed receiving the money early the next morning, indicating that banking services had been restored.
