Because they shouldn't give you customers details to start with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorecard Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) "I would definitely not be surprised after being told the banks keep no account records past 12 months." Who told you that? Who confirmed it's true? I've had reason to get details / confirmation of transactions several years old, takes a couple of days and there are small fess, and I'm guessing many other members have done the same.

As I said no records past 12 months in history.. Go on and verify with your bank if you doubt me. Insane! Hell I requested records from a USA brokerage from 9 years past when I knew they were required to keep records for 10 years. I got the records I sought. Try that in Thailand. ?????

He could have simply provided his bank account details for them to check what he found inside No, he went to the bank, checked the details, and relinquished the funds by authorizing a reversal or transfer. It's in the photo! You can't just agree and tell them to take the money- you have to sign something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup...real world sorts Consider the plight of the elderly or only partly educated for instance. I don't go to the bank often I must admit, but a couple of weeks ago I needed to make a transfer while I was out and about, and the local branch was full of customers. So clearly they are needed.

thhMan Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 It could have been sent to an account number and this is the excuse we where given. So instead of admitting the useless staff couldnt enter in correct digits, they made this elaborate excuse, which is not plausible, because trasfers are done to account numbers and not names Are people this stupid to believe this horse pucky excuse?
