SUB: YOUR ENQUIRY ABOUT HOW YOU CAN GET MONEY FROM ABROAD.

Dear Madam,

It is our pleasure to receive a letter from you to know how you can get money from abroad through our bank instead of using the MoneyGram system of money transfer.

As you know, our bank has not yet entered into any agreement with MoneyGram. We are also not confident about the efficacy of money transfer through MoneyGram that ensures payment to anybody who can present a ‘password’. The system sounds to us a little alarming, as we are not used to handing remittance money to anybody having no account with our bank.

Our system of remittance through our overseas correspondents is very robust and reliable; there is no possibility of frauds in our system. We ensure crediting the beneficiaries’ accounts in the shortest possible time. Thanks to SWIFT communication system of our bank, you can receive money from abroad in matter of few minutes. What you can do is advise your friend or relation living abroad to find out the nearest bank and instruct them to send his/her money through our correspondents.

We are enclosing herewith a brochure where you will find a list of our correspondent banks abroad with their addresses, contact numbers, emails and SWIFT addresses. You may send this brochure to your friend who may send money to your end through our Bank.

Thank you,

Bahadur Shah

Manager
