Who is bloody branch manager to sit in judgment over rules
framed
by regulator?
If he/she has to question them, let him represent to central bank or
government, for the time, rules are there, he has to comply with them.
If we give in to approach of petty functionaries thwarting rules,
there
will be no rule of law in this country.
Moreover, why does anybody require banking facilities? So, there is no
rational behind this question.
And, about ATM, bank is not responsible anyway for misuse or loss.
Check book is another matter, and I have time and again pointed out
the
lacunae in the policy pertaining to it.
So, we can not hold bankers denying it to fault.

Hello,
Noone has to deform such a pioneer corporate like PNB. RBI framed
rules
and
circulars, but being a Branch Manager, it seems impractical to issue
ATM
card to the blind customers. Let me argue the matter with the blind
customer
who is in need of ATM card and cheque book. Why does he need ATM card
and
cheque book and how shall I issue? Let him convince me.
Thanks.

dear Mr. Verma. .
surprised to know someone has something nice to say about PNB. I
haven't find many other organizations as obnoxious as PNB is. I had a
real struggle to get my ATM card from PNB. in fact, I'd contacted the
higher authorities as well. but at the end of the day, I had to
complaint to the RBI, and also to the NHRC and the government of
India
ministry of finance to get my card. after all that, I got my card
after a good 7 months. recently too, I had a terrible time with the
PNB, when I applied for a check book. as I already mentioned, this
happened after I submitted the RBI circular on the rights of the
disabled on banking facility.
and then we all have the story of a visually challenged being asked
to
provide a NOC from the parents to avail an ATM card. have you heard
of
anything more obnoxious?
banks in general, and PNB in particular have a horrible record when
it
comes to acknowledging the rightful claims of the disabled. so we
have
to take the struggle against such horrible institutional nonsense to
all possible levels including the media.

Hello all,
I am surprised to note various complaints against PNB in this list.
I
am
availing all the banking facilities, such as cheque book, debit
card,
credit
card, internet banking, etc. PNB does not ignore the blind
community,
hence
if any problem occurs, it may be communicated to the higher
authorities
of
PNB with the name and designation of the concerned officer.
Thanks.
