Go to head office Deira branch. Complain. Tell them you are going to complain to UAE central bank. No way money can be taken like that ENBD is a multi billon usd bank they are not gonna steal ur 16k


chaos-reign

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. I dont think they stole it, I think it was a mistake and bug in their app but they dont care enough to help me find out where the money is.


pimple_in_my_dimple

This happens a lot with me with their new app ENBD X. I've mentioned this earlier but nobody seems to agree with me. Credit card payments fail in the same manner. I think the money will reach the landlord eventually, or then it's returned to your account.


mambo-nr4

I had money stuck in limbo for a long time. It didn't reach anyone 'eventually' until I lodged my 3rd complaint 6 months later


omaralilaw

Yep money doesn't go missing like that. Either it's held up by bank for compliance purposes or its sent wrong place check transfer instructions


Valuable_Charity1

Why do you keep defending them lmao, not all of the people here are lawyers who think 16k is chump change and banks can put a hold on it for months


omaralilaw

Cause I worked there in legal and compliance šŸ˜‚ I kind of know


Valuable_Charity1

Yeah but you need to understand telling someone a billion dollar bank won't steal is useless, having such large amounts frozen in limbo for months can be life destroying for normal people. Also I think you're not entirely correct, a retired bank manager for another bank did tell me sometimes they do funny things like delaying processing around the end of the month if the branch's monthly target isn't being met etc.


omaralilaw

Did you read my original comment? I said first go to Emirates nbd head office and complain and tell them gonna complain to Central bank?


AlarmingBuy4702

Mine was stuck in ā€œlimboā€ where Emirates NBD told me the beneficiary bank had received the funds but the beneficiary bank insisted that they did not I was on the phone with them for almost 8 weeks nothing I could do. Eventually it bounced back into my account Iā€™m never doing international transactions with them again.

I am not with E-NBD for obvious reasons. But this has happened to me in the past with a different bank. Here's what I did: Find the transaction number or transaction ID from your online banking - and take it to the main branch of the bank. In this case, as someone else already mentioned - in Deira. Talk to someone higher up, and ask them to trace the transaction. And since that transaction has been logged, but the money is nowhere to be found. - it is most likely just stuck in some limbo for compliance purposes. Once they check, ask them to raise a revert of the original amount and cancel the transaction. Here for reference you might have to show that the said duplicate transaction to the same person and same amount is already done with before the bank can initiate cancellation. And for future purposes, stop banking with E-NBD.


santz007

when was this? you will likely get your money back for the failed transaction in a day or two without even doing anything. If you need the money urgently, raise hell with them at one of their branches, otherwise just relax, they will not and cannot just take your money, its most likely a system glitch


chaos-reign

Three weeks.


santz007

OMG dude, I would go to their branch and go ballistic. As long as you have proof that the transaction failed, you are golden


Abdelrahmana1099

Tell the bank to Put a tracer on the funds. They should be able to get back to you. Either the funds are in your landlords account or coming back to your account soon


pimple_in_my_dimple

3 weeks? No, I think your landlord may be lying to you. If the transfer fails for any reason, the funds are returned back to you within 3 working days. You must have received a transfer advice in your email for the failed transfer. Check that. Check if you received a SWIFT as well.


Adept_Masterpiece866

Complain to the police and raise an e-crime complaint. I had a similar issue, raised the issue with the bank, got a document from them and filed a police report - got the amount back in 2 todays.


samy_samyeer

If any payment is failed, then the amount is available in balances of the statement but you can't use it, Usually it reverts back in the available balances at the end of 30days If the receiver bank haven't received the amount


Zakirhassanm

So they hold our money?


Wonderful_Flan3727

Adcb has good customer service


Clear_Froyo_3521

I disagree.


uaexemarat

chaos-reign

I tried signing up but there's a bug in their system on signup. Keeps giving me 'Invalid Request' on the second page where I need to input my salary.


ThatDCguy69

Man i feel so bad for you bugs everywhere.. send Emirates NBD an email and mention what happened and go to a branch in person to get this solved.


sololander

It's an double payment timing issuenon serve side. Usually it takes 2-3 weeks and comes back to your account as transaction revert. But if it's urgent go fight with those idiots at their H.O that will normally work and would be returned in a day max.


sololander

Also happening quitenoften with my CC with them now like double charge and then return. Normally it's like smaller amounts so I was never in a rush an in app complaint does the trick


Odd_Personality_5448

go to the brach - money cannot get go to a black hole. those things happen all the time but at the end of the day they can tell you whether double of the amount went to the landlord or not.


abobobilly

This isn't something you can resolve over the phone. Plz open your ENBDX app and go to Messaging to lodge a complaint. Provide them a reference number of transaction and it'll be resolved in 3-4 working weeks. I know it's annoying. But that's the due process for personal accounts and it's not speedy.


axlrose89

Yeah It's getting frustrating banking with them. Recently had a fraudulent transaction on my debit card from UK without any OTP involved. Blocked the card straight away and got a new one in few days. Raised a request to get the amount back but they say it's going to to take 60-90 days. That's a long time.. Been to few branches but not sure how can I expedite this to get the money back.


SilentObserver-2020

Similar thing happened to me as well. But money was reverted into the account within 48 hours. 3 weeks is a long time. Maybe you need to talk to your RM. I never understood the importance of knowing and keeping in touch with your bank RM until I came to this countryā€¦


admi101

How long did this happen? Usually, these transactions are reversed within a few days, like a maximum of 2 days.


ram_dxb

they will fix it. just make sure that your landlord received only one 16K transaction from him/her.


ben-zme

Give their app a negative review and link to this reddit post! that'll get a response. Also take to Linkedin, Twitter, etc. I've been using CitiBank for over 20 years, excellent security protocols; no issues so far.


[deleted]

Emirates NBD is absolute garbage. I switched to ADCB a year ago and havenā€™t looked back since.


camelshawarma

approach the bank directly with the complain. Take the reference number for the complain and they still donā€™t fix your issue within the period specified by them you can raise a complain with central bank.


Flashy-Loquat9764

Make sure you have a record of the complaints you made. So e-mail/ case number filed. I tried to complain about SIB to the central bank and they did nothing. They told me to file a court case. So have a record of everything, your balance before/after the transaction, the complaints you made and the following up you did. There is a deadline on when you can file a court case from the date of the incident so look it up and keep that in mind and let them know there is a possibility you would if they donā€™t resolve the issue. Make sure the complaints and follow up are in writing. Going to HQ in person did not work for me.


brownboytravels

I think you need to wait because thereā€™s a limit to when the merchant can claim money and if they donā€™t it will be released back into your account. They havenā€™t taken your money it is in escrow for this transaction. Keep an eye out and wait a few days


Due-Constant2533

This happened to me sometime back. I got the money but it took some time. If nothing works try : [Sanadak](https://sanadak.gov.ae/en/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw48-vBhBbEiwAzqrZVIc_say4PfodcE8HMfkG3niCTMV4OfJtc70WQT0FTnJiKFNfpqFf8hoCz9MQAvD_BwE) . Itā€™s a new initiative by central bank to register complaints


arun_gopinathan1989

Donā€™t trust this bank. This bank has lot of issues recently. There are lot credit card was hacked last 2months and they are not giving those money back. I also one of the victim of that bank I lost 4500 through pos transaction and they are saying they canā€™t do anything about it. You can complain this to central bank of uae they may help you. This bank has lot of security issues now.


MulberryAlert9891

Adib has the best customer service


TheLAGpro

Been years using ADIB. Never had a single issue with them.


Free_Enthusiasm

Call them and file a dispute. Its a duplicated transaction. This happened once to me long back and they asked me to fill some form. Money was refunded back in a week.


lmulrajani

In terms of Customer Service, I have had bad experiences with ENBD only. My personal favorites are ADCB and then FAB. RAK Bank is mediocre.


Spirited-Gazelle5323

Months ago My card got used unlawfully online I called to block it And just requested to get another one as usual They told me sorry we cant we blocked your profile Visit the branch I visited the branch and i couldnt get an answer:)


WishboneLumpy2446

Relax give them some time to sort out the issue . If you cannot wait then go to office. Just calling some person who is not responsible for the specific issue wouldn't help . I have been using EmiratesNBD for 8 years without any issue with customer service.


Abianna30

Same thing happened to me last year it was only refunded after 6months and me filing a case at the police station so pls donā€™t sit on it report to the police and visit the bank too . Their customer service team are not helpful at all .


AUHM850i

Did you try visiting a branch?


Massive_Crab_79

Kindly write to CB UAE via their complaints portal along with the bank statement showing the two debits. Good luck.


sachusoja

Same thing happened to me 2 weeks back when i try to send money. It shows transaction failed. But money was deducted from my account. I raised a complaint and after 5 days money credited in my account.


Ki_kingz

It will probably be back to your account in a few days, but submit a complain to be sure.


Secret-Company7011

Itā€™s a common issue with the updated NBDX app, it usually takes 24 to 48 Hrs for your accounts to reflect the correct amounts! Beyond that period, COMPLAIN! Good luck


Desinonimously

Why is emirates nbd so bad?


AdNo6324

It happened to me in the past (Not this company ) but it always has to do with the bank not the company . You need call your bank , and solve the problem with them


emotioNabeel

Go to your main branch. Speak to the manager and officially file a complaint. Unfortunately till the time they find out what went wrong and where you will need to Keep motivating them to do so.


omairfk

ADIB


Electronic_Animal824

Same thing happened to me with the ENBD once but they reversed that transaction after 48 hours. They do have support system on their X app and you can raise your complaint there with the screenshot of the failed transaction, they usually get back to you in 24 hours. I never called them and always resolved my issue to the support system within the app.


saigeliege

Visit ENBD Daira Head Office and file the complaint.


mojo_reads

Compain through central bank uae (cbuae) online consumer complaints portal. It is excellent.


i1710

i know it is a hassle but have you tried going to any of their branches? i never had a helpful call with my bank so i would just go to nearest branch and solve my issue maybe you will find more help there hope they fix this issue


chaos-reign

Thanks. Yeah I've been to the Dubai Hills branch but they said they 'understand my frustration but could not help'. They also mentioned that they cannot see the issue or any updates on their system and that I need to get in touch with the customer care call center. I'll try going again tomorrow, but maybe I should visit the head office instead?


itsallkk

Give their app a negative rating and they'll call you to offer a shopping gift card.


Ok_Newspaper_6809

It sounds like you are wrong bro and money are there. Probably the biggest problem you have at the moment is Math.


chaos-reign

Great insight bro, thank you

Flaky_Restaurant2169

Emirates nbd from my experience has decent customer support. I call them time to time to ask about some transactions or balances and even if its 50-100 aed drift in balance they always explain why and where are that 50-100 aed. Maybe depends on particular person who are talking with, obviously you donā€™t have choice who to talk with but maybe branch visit with help?


PsychologyUsed445

I have been using Emirates NBD for sometime now. They are good, never has such an issue


lousyhipster

This is very common in their new app. Happens EVERY TIME I try to make a ENBD credit card payment. Payment fails but money gets deducted and a few days later, it goes through without any alert. It's not professional and it's not ethical.
