This planned maintenance comes hot on the heels of Stanbic Bank Kenya’s system upgrade over the weekend. It seems that Kenyan banks are taking advantage of the weekend to ensure their systems are running smoothly.
While the inconvenience of temporary service disruptions may be frustrating, it’s worth remembering that these upgrades are essential for maintaining the security and efficiency of our banking systems. So, let’s all be patient and understanding as Equity Bank works to improve its services for us.
