ABN AMRO problem

I ultimately decided to send the certificate that the cheque has been paid by my bank. I got the statement prepared on SBI letter head and sent the scanned copy to ABN AMRO head credit card services.

The credit card person are still adament that they have not received the payment. I got a phone call that the cheque was returned to me. But the cheque was presented by the ABN AMRO credit cards to my bank and it was debited from account on 16 March 2007. It was amazing to see the statements getting changed from the people who are calling me from ABN AMRO bank.

MY SINCERE ADVICE TO ALL OF YOU READING THIS blog - DO NOT TAKE ABN AMRO CREDIT CARD. If you are having one, it is advised, surrender it immediately. They cannot even run their banking system properly and are always asking to provide all the information. Compratively a Govt bank like SBI works much better.

Worst yet to come.

I thought after the email from head of ABN AMRO that things are settled. But the worst was to come. I got a phone call and then email on 10 April 2007, telling me that payment has not been made. But the cheque deposited with ABN AMRO credit card has already been debited from my back account on 16th March 2007. The communication from ABN AMRO bank is now stating that I have to prove to credit card company that I have paid the amount. Even after I have sent the bank statement, the ABN AMRO credit cards have asked me get in writing from my bank that the cheque has been credited to ABN AMRO credit cards.

There seems to be some serious problem with ABN AMRO cards. God save me.
