The Board in a statement said it has received reports that some Ghanaians are paying to apply for the programme launched in collaboration with the MasterCard Foundation despite cautions it has issued earlier.
According to the Board, no middleman or agent has been appointed to assist applicants with the process and has thus emphasized that it is unacceptable for any person to assume that role, let alone to charge applicants for same.
The NBSSI further asked applicants who may face any challenge in the process of filing their application to report their issue to its business advisory units in the various districts for help.
