HO confused with bank statements!!!

Post by kiran_jammy » Fri Sep 18, 2009 12:42 pm

hi ppl, i have a situation here, i applied for PSW visa on 21st of aug...with my last bank statement which has a issue date of 28th of july but the last transaction was 9th of july. so for that i took an electronic statement and got stamped with my bank either. couple of days ago a lady from Ho called me up and said that she needed statement from date 9th july to 28th of july (remember there were no transactions made at this period). though i managed to explain her that she wanted other latest statements which included 9th july to 9th aug on a continous sheet of paper. i went to bank and asked for the same (my bank is lloyds) , they said that they cannot produce such a statement, they cannot issue any standard covering letter for me. i again called HO and told her the situation..she asked me to give any form of statement (which didnt include my name addres but just my acct number. she agreed to this!!!) which was attested by bank. i sent her everything. waiting for visa now.
hey guys anyone applying be aware of this situation...more with lloyds bank customers....take care to do some tranaction now and then with ur bank to avoid this kind of situations..

Sorry to hear that. I read somewhere in this forum about similar situation. The money was in the account for all the time but the guy never used it so HO, I dont know what they checked, they never called him and then refused the visa !!!!
In your case they have called you, so hope for a positive reply.

Good Luck.

To avoid such problem, I think it is advisable that PSW applicants make at least one transaction at the end of the three months period to be included in the statement. Well, it is silly I guess
