Help About check Issue

Franzmai
By Franzmai

The scenario is, we had issued a check last year for our house rent under my friends name. Now, my friend had left Qatar. The thing is, last Oct 2013, one of the check bounced because bank had deducted some charges or whatsoever. We were not informed by the house owner of what happened. He had filed a complaint to the police.

Now, we can’t use the check because it was blacklisted or something.

How can we get the money from the bank if the account owner is not here?

We had raised the issue to the said bank but they just replied that there is no way we can withdraw the money! The only way is that, the account owner should come here and do the transaction by himself.

But unfortunately he can’t be here because he is now working is KSA!

 

Please enlighten us on what are we going to do?

Luckily he was able to retrieve his simcard yesterday. so we had tried to transfer bank to bank. everything seems fine at the start of the process but when the transaction is almost done, an error came up that says "Account xxxxxxxxxxxx dormant for debit".

dormant?!?!

we had been using the account and why it become dormant all of the sudden?

Thanks for the reply malyares... actually my friend is very much willing to give us back the money. but he cant do that because the bank dont have any branch in KSA. can he jsut call the bank and inform them that in behalf of him we will serve as his part? or will the bank honor any authorization letter?

Franzmai,

I work in a bank, and the bank will not withdraw a single riyal from your friend account.

You should call your friend in KSA and ask him to send you money, if he is not replying .. well .. your beloved friend seems to have stabbed you in the back and you will have to pay
