Nigerians Slam PalmPay Over Unresolved ₦241,000 Wrong Transfer

A Nigerian businesswoman says she sent ₦241,000 by mistake into a PalmPay account on May 8, 2026. Her bank froze the beneficiary account but could not recover the funds. Despite repeated calls, PalmPay has reportedly offered no clear solution. The customer claims the fintech app simply tells her “nothing can be done” even though it knows whose account holds the money. Angry users are demanding the Central Bank of Nigeria step in and force PalmPay to resolve the issue. Many fear this could set a dangerous precedent for all digital payments if left unchecked.
