UAE: Bank received the deposit, but not credited to his account
Reader complaints about his deposit of Dh500 for eDirham recharge has not been credited
I am writing this mail for assistance from Gulf News regarding a genuine problem, which I am not able to rectify despite all my efforts. I had deposited Dh500 for eDirham recharge at First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB), Fujairah on December 3, 2018 at 5.50pm. After depositing the cash I got a printout stating: “Your deposit has been received and it will be processed manually.”
On contacting the FAB branch, Fujairah, I was informed that this matter can be followed up only through the Toll Free Number 800663. Since then I have been repeatedly contacting the Toll Free number. Every time I have been promised that the amount will be deposited at the earliest. As advised during the call I had been recharging the card with new deposits and using it regularly. Unfortunately until today, January 9, 2019, the amount of Dh500, which I had deposited has not been credited. I would appreciate if any steps can be taken by Gulf News regarding this issue.

The bank has been in contact with Mr Babu George, and the case has been resolved.
Mr George responds: FAB contacted me and clarified the issue with credit of the recharge amount. I would like to thank the Gulf News team and FAB management for solving the issue to my entire satisfaction.
