Recently I have added a bank account to my MoneyBookers account. I have a savings account in State Bank India.I also use this account to withdraw money from PayPal. In my city there are many branches of SBI, but only one branch shows SWIFT code on their website. I consulted my branch they said "We have core banking now, so if you provide the SWIFT Code of the other branch there will be no problem for the transaction as your account number remains same everywhere in India". Hence I added my bank account and just for testing purpose I withdrew $20 from my MB account.I gave it a try because I recently came to know from a HDFC Bank official that SWIFT Code is same for the bank in the same city unlike the IFSC Code which differs from branch to branch. Three days have past now but my bank account is not showing the balance of the transaction. AND now when I just logged in in to my MB account, my account is locked.I am not able to send, withdraw money.They are showing the message to me that I have my ID proof and my address proof also. I have provided the same at the next moment as I had them ready with me. Any inputs from existing MB users would be very much helpful. This questions from me is especially for all Indians here: Any Indian here who have successfully withdrawn amount from MB account to his bank account?If so which bank you have used to withdraw from MB and how much time it took reflect the same in your bank account?
it takes upto 7 days max for a swift transfer , i have already done withdrawals with mb to my hdfc bank i think you will get you money within few days aslo you should submit your docs to them and get your account removed from limitation if you can call them your problem will be solved really fast
thanx for replying, I will wait 7 days to see whether the transactions reflects in my account or not. As for now I have submitted all the documents they asked from me.Lets see when they unlock my account.
