I also have a simmiler experience with talking ATM. The union bank of india
ATM of a location was not working. When I approach the branch manager with
the complaint, he confidently told me that this is not a talking ATM. But I
have seen the location in the official list of the bank and use the same
before. When I requested him to call Prashant sir, then only the matter get
sorted out. Now it is working absolutely fine.

Agree that awareness is important. One of thing that we should be able to
do is sometimes do take an extra effort and raise awareness ourselves
keeping organizations such as XRCVC in the loop so that things will become
faster. Has your friend visited the branch to educate them?
Thanks,

hi
Work of XRCVC and prashant sir is very appreciated.
One of my friends said me that when he went at Talking ATM at his
location, ATM guard refused him to inject headphone to use talking
ATM. Guard was unaware about it. Guard called to his branch officials
but officials was also unaware about their own talking ATM. Awareness
is a big issue.
