Is this fair and logical that without customer pre knowledge the bank start to charge the some kind of new fees? CBQ start to charge QR 50 as annual fee to the entire account holder.

Why do u wish to stay with the worst bank of Qatar??? They may charge even when you withdraw in ATM. It is really the worst of all in the world.

Dear friends All QL, I would like to bring your notice about CBQ the CBQ people cheated to my wife before she was working one multinational Company as a temporary position. CBQ offered 3 and half times credit limit. after she quit the job temporary position. She join one of the largest company here in doha- she provided the letter to the CBQ and saying that she changed the job and submitted new salary certificate for changing her company name and telephone numbers. What happened the CBQ call centers said please transfer your salary to CBQ she said that okay. After salary transfers they deduct the outstanding mothly installment and they said we are decreasing your credit limit. My wife is paying monthly credit installments and suddnely they decrease the credit limit - this happens in one week ago. Really this is cheating without informing her. Really CBQ are doing worse things with customers. And she is stopping to transfers the salary to CBQ. If the Bank is not providing good facilities why to take CBQ Cards. Better Mashreq Bank, IBQ, HSBC,There are lot good Banks in the Market.

Are you a new account holder? I am and I was informed that the QR50 is for the ATM card. Also got free sms service informing me of my account balance. Good customer service. At least I can get a straight answer.

And at least they don't charge QR50 every time my balance dips below QR8,000 which it will definitely ALWAYS do so. CBQ's limit is average balance QR3,000 and a fee of QR25 will be charged. Eg. If I dip below 3k for a week but I top up the following week, if my average works out to not less than 3k, I'll not be charged.

Lolz...

As per my experience, it will be the same in every bank in Qatar.

There are simply no standards for consumer banking and there seems to be no one to regulate it.

If you want to live in Doha, take it light, and make a joke book out of it :)
