Instead, all new notes should be loaded into the ATMs for customer withdrawals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is effective immediately please.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The source, who is a manager in one of the bank\u2019s branches in Ikeja, Lagos, however, complained that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2023\/01\/07\/new-naira-notes-stain-white-surfaces-nspm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">new naira notes<\/a>\u00a0were in short supply, hence the branch decided to load a mixture of the old and new N1,000 and N500 notes in the ATMs for customers to withdraw.<\/p>\n<p>The source stated, \u201cWe got a memo from the head office this morning (Thursday) that we should stop dispensing new notes to customers who come to withdraw over the counter, but instead we should load the ATMs with the new notes. The correspondence from the head office said the directive was from the CBN and that we should implement it immediately.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe directive has, however, thrown us into a dilemma as we are in short supply of the new notes and we can\u2019t afford not to load the ATMs as there has been a surge in the number of customers coming to withdraw after the Yuletide holidays.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLoading of ATMs is the responsibility of the banks. When our bank tested the ATMs, only one denomination of the new notes passed the test of dispensing seamlessly through our machines. The bank is working on reconfiguring the ATMs to be able to dispense the new notes. What we have done in my branch is to mix the few new N1,000 and N500 notes available with old ones so that desperate customers can make withdrawals and meet their immediate needs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you observed, a lot of ATMs were inactive during the Christmas and New Year holidays. The idea was not to give out old notes, but unfortunately, the new ones are not in circulation. The banks have a mandate to evacuate N1bn old notes each to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2022\/12\/08\/cbn-begins-distribution-of-new-naira-notes-to-banks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CBN<\/a> on a daily basis and our head office has set a strict vault limit or cash holding limit for each branch, which on no condition we must exceed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A senior official of the CBN, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to comment on the issue, confirmed that the apex bank indeed issued the directive to the banks, PUNCH reports.<\/p>\n<p>He explained, \u201cFrom this weekend, new notes will be available for disbursement to bank customers. We are pushing the N1,000 and N500 notes through the ATMs for now. The N200 will be available later.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe aim is to check inflation and currency abuse. A research was conducted and it showed that the demand for the N1,000 and N500 is higher, hence the decision to start with them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, has banned Deposit Money Banks from over-the-counter withdrawals of new naira notes to customers.
