Barely three weeks in the new apartment, the electricity bill had arrived. The new apartment was bigger than the last and their two double-seater cushions left too much space vacant in the seating room. They needed to get a couple more furniture to fill the space. His wife had not stopped reminding him of the car he promised to get, in order to ease mobility for the family.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-23650\" src=\"https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/FirstBank-logo-300x254.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"254\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/sub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/FirstBank-logo-300x254.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/sub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/FirstBank-logo-768x650.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/sub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/FirstBank-logo-110x93.jpg 110w, https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/sub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/FirstBank-logo-420x355.jpg 420w, https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/sub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/FirstBank-logo-508x430.jpg 508w, https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/sub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/FirstBank-logo.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Everyone has been a Tope at some point in time, and that is why everyone needs a financial partner like FirstBank, Nigeria\u2019s premier and leading financial services brand. FirstBank offers a variety of loan products that can help you ease off pressure as you work towards meeting pressing and urgent needs, as well as medium term goals.<br \/>\nFirstAdvance is a digital product tailored for Salary Account holders, who have an urgent cash need and would want to access salary advance from the bank. If you have held a salary account with FirstBank for up to two months, you can access 50% of your monthly net salary and as much as half a million naira (N500,000).<\/p>\n<p>A physical visit to the bank branch is not required as you can access it via the FirstMobile (FirstBank\u2019s Mobile banking app) and USSD channels. To access the service via USSD, dial *894*11# from the phone number linked with your FirstBank account. This has proved to be the solution for many people while emergencies arise before pay day. There is no point in waiting for month end before you can take on those pressing financial obligations.<\/p>\n<p>FirstCredit is another digital product designed to cater for the non-salaried individuals. All that is required is for your account to have been active and transacting in FirstBank for six months or more to access FirstCredit. It provides customers with quick and easy access to loans to fund urgent transactions. You do not need a smart phone or a physical visit to the bank to get this done as well. This credit facility can be accessed using a mobile phone and the USSD banking code, *894*11#. You can access as much as N300,000 to be repaid within 30 days.<\/p><div data-ad-id=\"32665\" style=\"text-align:center; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px;float:none;\" class=\"afw afw_ad_image afw_ad afwadid-32665  \">\r\n                                                            <div style=\"font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#cccccc;\">Advertisement<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.accessbankplc.com\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"auto\" max-width=\"100%\" src=\"https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Banner-1.jpg\"><\/a>\r\n                                                                        \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p>No physical documentation or collateral is required, neither do you need a physical visit to the bank to access both loans.
