Hi Aruni Yes, RBI has issued this instructions, however, the ground reality is different. In the good old days, it was the branch banking era, signature verification was done in the branches.They were aware of their blind customers and would do the suitable accomodations. However, it is no more branch banking and this process is done at the back end and there is total disconnect with the officials and the customers. As a result there is increased incidents of cheques getting returned because of signature mismatch.
Those using thumb impression, the problem gets enhanced because, it is not possible by most to verify it on the computer monitor. The effective solution was to have the computer to do that task. Earlier, TCS had done some significant work on it. I understand, they have shelved the project as the present advances in alternative methods like ePayment is more effective than the paper based instruments. I am aware, many would frown at this, butthis is the stark reality. It is necessary to keep in pace with changing times. Internal processes do differ from one bank to another. In the interim, if you can find such contacts as Sweety has suggested, you can take it up. In the long run of course, you need to take measure to change.

Hi, Rbi has instructed banks to facilitate the use of all services including cheque facility. But the convenient argument from the bank side is that they do not have any LTI verification method. Though I convinced my bank to issue a cheque book,, they have told me that my cheques will only be entertained if the signatures match exactly, which is not the case 99% of times. This has effectively barred me from using cheques for banking transactions. Thanks and regards, Thanks and regards, Dr. Aruni Sharma.
