Dear friends Mylotters
This morning to me, happened not unusual, and very boring fact.
Today is the first day of October and as every month, I went to the office posted, to collect my "ridiculous" monthly allowance.
Once I got to the cash machine, here's the bad surprise. The money was paid into my book of savings, but for me it was impossible to make any withdrawal.
Since I was tired because I did not sleep at all last night, I came home and slept until noon.
I then went out again, try again with the cash dispenser, but again, nothing to do!
So I decide to go inside and ask for an explanation to the staff.
To me had told that I can not collect any money, as exceeded the limit of 40 operations, I must do the update of my book.
Result: tomorrow I have to make more than one hour queue at the post office, do all the paperwork, and then I can collect my money.
What a stress!

Yes. in India we have restrictions for withdrawal of cash from other bank ATMs. we can drawn five times in a month. Exceeding that we will be charges Rs.20 ($0.4). But we can drawn N number of times from the same bank's ATM.
In your case they have put restriction of 40 withdrawals in a year (2012). You have exceeded that. to avoid this from the next year you withdraw your allowance in one or two instalmnents every month. otherwise for the next three months you have to stand in the queue and take in one instalment.

Well, you see, my monthly allowance amounts to € 278, then I would say almost a ridiculous figure. Which is why I wanted to make the savings, not the Postamat, as the system that I chose is thankfully devoid taxes.
However known that also has its cons!

Converted into rupees it comes to around Rs.15000 or so. With this--I know nowadays it is difficult to manage. Nowadays even in chennai we require double this amount --excluding rent for house.
one bread itself will cost 2euro, is it not?

Well, if you mean a sandwich, you still held down, you can be up to € 3.50 each.
For workers lunch break takes away a considerable part of the salary!

That is such a hassle my dear friend. I hope everything went well since this is a delayed response.
