TO ALL DD APPLICANTS:
I was able to get DD encashment status and date from ICICI Bank. Likewise they initially refused. I questioned what will happen to my money if CIC didn't encash it (and I told CIC is A foreign gov body and would never tell me they did or did not) - What does your Banking Law or procedure say - If a DD is issued but not encashed and if the customer has no recourse to know whether encashed by the beneficiary, then the customer should lose the money????
Then I gave a request letter asking them to decline my request so that I will follow with CIC (I simply told)
Then the next day the Bank called and told me the date of encashment
Good Luck all future migrants.... MIGRANTS CANNOT AFFORD TO GIVE UP!
