You need your FCMB account number to perform various banking transactions. Without it, most transactions can’t be completed.

Unfortunately, a lot of FCMB customers misplace or forget their bank account numbers and start searching for them when it is requested.

On the fortunate side, there are ways via which they can get it back; read on if you would want to find out.

A bank account number (officially Nigerian Uniform Bank Account Number – NUBAN) is a number series that identifies a particular bank account.

When you create an FCMB account, you will be issued a unique 10 digits number which is what proves that you now have an account with FCMB.

First City Monument Bank (FCMB) does not feature checking account numbers on their USSD platform, so there is no direct code to check your bank account number.
