Troubles in opening an Account at NCB (Al-Ahli Bank)

Hi Mirza,

the documents the bank asked for are the standard at any Bank in the Kingdom. websites are not very accurate to information when it comes to the services presented here. and I'm surprised your questioning that after spending 6 years in this country.

regarding the ID issue, if there is no spelling mistake in your name written in the Iqama and the one in your passport, than there shouldn't be a problem, just talk to the branch manager or go to a different branch altogether. yes, sometimes another branch can treat people differently.

I hope this was of help

Sabb Bank don't ask for all these documents, other than iqama they don't ask other documents. (im sure of that)

Rajhi bank ask few documents but not sponsor letter (heard from friends)

So can you suggest me some good branch in Jeddah? that treat people a little easy?

Sabb bank did ask me for a letter from my employer.
They informed me that it is saudi govt requirement.

This letter is required by all the banks, you cannot open an acocount with this letter, it must be attest fro chamber.

SABB bank, Arab bank will not care about your name, you can try,
But Riyadh, Ahli and others will not open the account, if you have the same issue on iqama.

Thanks for help, my brother opened an account in Sabb without sponsor's letter. He did it recently, about 4 months ago. Ok if I visit there I'll share my experience.

similar issued happened to me also at Riyad Bank, I went to another branch they made up a totally different issue, so i visited another branch and they guy opened  my account without any questions.

By the way if you still have the book Iqama, they will make issues on name otherwise they don't

No I don't have book iqama, it is card with me now.

there are NCB branches that are lenient in opening bank accounts. same issue concerning encashing of checks.

If a bank is making such a fuss, why take your business to them?
Forget this bank.

Try Saab.

Good luck.

thank you

Hello usman210,
