Hi,
I made a transaction worth USD 307 through the branch using my SB account to buy a tablet computer for personal reasons in Apr-2013. The bank is now asking for 'Bill of Entry'. I didn't have a clue about this document till they asked about it and I dont have the BOE now. The bank is asking me to get a declaration from a CA saying that I have lost my 'Bill of Entry'. CAs are not willing to give me such a document because they cannot vouch for me having lost this. Please note that this was a one time transaction and I haven't done any other transaction since.
Can the bank freeze my account, what can I do to now?
Bank Requests 2013 Bill of Entry for Tablet Purchase; User Fears Account Freeze, Seeks Advice on Missing Document. A user inquired about a bank's request for a 'Bill of Entry' for a past transaction made in 2013 using their savings account to purchase a tablet. The user was unaware of this document and cannot obtain a declaration from a Chartered Accountant (CA) confirming its loss. The user is concerned about potential account freezing and seeks advice. A respondent suggested checking if the item was received via courier and, if the bill exists, presenting it to the bank to verify the transaction's authenticity, possibly assuming it was a Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) shipment.
