If that's the case, it is an excellent thought. Regards, Srinivasu Chakravarthula

As soon as you insert the card, the software detects that you need speech and enables the speech option automatically. I can't think of any other reason why they require a separate card for blind users.

While the configuration of the machines need a little modification or addition, the cards need nothing on them... This sounds strange. Pl share the details on the group. Also, let me know which are the ATMs (locations) in Chennai that have talking facility. I am on my way to Chennai this weekend and would like to try.

Yes sir, as you said SBi installed 5 Talking ATMs in chennai. For that we have to apply for a special ATM Card. I have applied for the same. Probably within a week I will be receiving that card. One of my visually impaired friend has used talking ATM for withdrawal of cash. As per his statement it is very user friendly. Presently SBI has given few powers for the users of this card like hot cash, cash withdrawal, change of PIN etc., If you need more information please write. For your information, I am working in State Bank of India in clerical cadre. Thanks Jayachandran. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kiran Kaja" <kirankaj...@gmail.com> To: <accessindia@accessindia.org.in> Sent: Tuesday, July 06, 2010 6:57 AM Subject: [AI] Status of talking ATM installations in India > Hi All, > > Has anyone got any recent update on installation of talking ATMs in India? > I > am doing some research on on this topic and any recent updates are greatly > appreciated.
