By the way, what are those "some documents" that are required acording to ICICI's agent? Have you lodged a written complaint? ICICI or any other bank can not deny you from opening an account. Can send you the detailed guidelines pertaining to operational details of Visually impaired person's bank accounts.

I opened an IBM salary account with the ICICI bank on the 10/06/07. At the time of opening the account the agent had not insisted on the submision of any documents even though I asked him just for confirmation. on the 20/06/07 the agent informed me that the account cannot be activated due to the requirement of "some" documents and they also stress that it is clear from my photograph that I'am a visually impaired person. On the 22/06/07 I also lodged a complaint with ICICI, which is still in the open state. My grievances have not yet been addressed. The agent says that he has sent the case to his Mumbai office for clarification. Such issues are to be addressed seriously since ICICI claims to launch talking ATMS in the near future. How can a bank provide talking ATMS when it does not allow the visually impaired candidates to open accounts with it? sorry to send such a long mail, but , friends it is serious and I wish to know from you what steps should I take.
