To me, as he is totally blind, he can't read the content written on the cheque. So he can't issue a cheque to someone with only his own signature. The cheque is needed to be undersigned with a authorised officer of the bank.

Hi
There is some confusion while reading the mail.
1 Is the manager rejecting a cheque or withdrawal slip?
2 Has he been told about the RBI guidelines regarding provision of banking services to blind customers?

Firstly, try to make him understand that he cannot deny banking services to blind persons. Failing this, you can write to the customer care department. Finally you can make a complaint to Banking Ombudsman of your region along with a copy of all the correspondence.

Friends, here one of my blind friend faced very tipical problem by Allahabad Bank of Timarpur Branch in Delhi he is using this bank & banking fecility for the past ten years, though he is totally blind he can sign very easily, for the past 10 years he is producing his cheque duely signed by himself to house loan & car loan till date there was no problem, but a new Manager has come in Allahabad Bank he refused him to give payment through cheque when he had sent his son for withdrawel of cash, his son is of 20 years old, the manager did not returned the cheque & said cheque could not be issued to blind persons, though this blind person signature is very clear and he is using for the past 10 years, friends please give suggestions what action can be taken against the Allahabad Bank Manager, Timarpur Branch, Delhi.
