Dear Access Indians,
In this regard I would like to narrate my experience with Central Bank of India.

Dear All,
I have travelled by BEST for a long long time. The drivers and
conductors are very good. Even the Inspectors are very helpful. They

Pasting below the RBI circular to all banks regarding Accessible ATMs.

Rather than telling the bank to call the customer, we should call the bank and
inform the bank of the issuance of the cheque if it is above a certain amount.
It will be difficult for the bank to remember and call the customer. It is much
easier we call them and they make a note of it.
