There is a RBI circular. Will send it tomorrow. SBI has started rolling out
ATMs. We had tested these machines in Mumbai last year. I am forwarding your
mails to Dr. Sam at XRCVC who has been in touch with the SBI.
It started with a case before the Commissioner of Disabilities in 2005. then
the RBI circular of 2008 and then the other circular of RBI to banks asking
them to have 1/3rd talking ATMS. Then last year the testing and reports. Now
the roll out has started.
They were supposed to be full fledged ATMS which additionally had audio
output.
Now when I read these reports of special cards etc. I am quite surprised.
Please let me know what is your exact interest in this matter and I can
explain better.
Kanchan

Hi Jayachandran,
Thanks for replying. Would you be able to find out any details of
installations apart from Chennai? I wonder if SBI have a roadmap for
talking
ATM installations?
Further, I heard that RBI passed some sort of a directive requiring 30% or
so of all banking ATMs to be made accessible? Is there a copy of this?
Regards,
Kiran

Hello Kiran,
This is Jayachandran from Chennai.
Yes sir, as you said SBi installed 5 Talking ATMs in chennai. For that we
have to apply for a special ATM Card. I have applied for the same.
Probably within a week I will be receiving that card. One of my visually
impaired friend has used talking ATM for withdrawal of cash. As per his
statement it is very user friendly.
Presently SBI has given few powers for the users of this card like hot
cash,
cash withdrawal, change of PIN etc., If you need more information please
write.
For your information, I am working in State Bank of India in clerical
cadre.
Thanks
Jayachandran.

Hi All,
Has anyone got any recent update on installation of talking ATMs in
India?
I
am doing some research on on this topic and any recent updates are
greatly
appreciated. I remember reading an article where SBI announced that they
will be installing some 7000 ATMs throughout the country. I don't suppose
any of them have been installed yet?
Regards,
Kiran
