In a video posted on TikTok by @best_choice23, the lady said she made a mistake and paid in an amount higher than what she intended.

She said she topped up with N300,000, which is far higher than what she intended to pay for bus rides in Lagos.

She said:

“You mistakenly topped up N300k on your BRT Cowry app that doesn’t have a withdrawal option instead of Cowry wise savings app.”

The lady said there was no way she could take back the money because the app does not have a withdrawal.

She posted the video seeking help on how she could manage the situation.

Her post indicated that she contacted the customer service of the Cowery app and she has not received a reply.

The lady said in the message:

“Hello please, I need your help. I mistakenly transferred N300k to my cowry app. How can I withdraw it? How do I transfer it back to my bank?”
