She noted that the idea of the neighborhood banking services is to bring the bank closer to the people, i.e community banking whereby the indigenes and citizens of Adamawa State do not have to go to very far locations to consume financial services. They don’t have to queue in the bank just to withdraw money, civil servant don’t need to be sleeping in the bank just to get their salaries; stating that they have brought the bank closer to the people.

Mrs. Onyebuagu stressed that the conception of TINGG is a product that you can consume through your mobile phone to send and receive money from any bank in Nigeria, pay your bills, school fees, tax and buy airtime.
Other products are: withdraw cash, get instant ATM card after the open of an account, register/verify your BVN, register your WAEC, JAMB and Farmer ID validation etc. so anything you can do with your bank you can also do it with your TINGG Neighborhood Banking Services.

Therefore, the Enterprise Business Manager thanked His Excellency Governor Jibrilla for identifying with her organization as well thanked the people of Adamawa State most especially the Gangwari Ganye for the warm reception.

She pledged to her customers that there is no need for them to panic as her bank has registered with all the necessary financial institutions for good service delivering. Maintaining that they have invested over five hundred U.S dollars to bring in the kiosks, so anywhere it will be seen in Adamawa has 24 hours electricity power, equip bank deposit slip and everything that is needed for cash-out and withdrawal.
