Send an official mail to your bank and ask them to act pursuant to Article 10.4 of the CBN Regulation of BPS/DIR/GEN/CIR/05/11 dated 13th of September, 2018. Tell them the article deals with erroneous transfer and spelt out their obligations which they must comply with .
I made a wrong transfer from GTBank to Sterling Bank.
I contacted GTBank, they said I should liaise with Sterling Bank.
