Hello,
My name is Steven Morris and I am a trade agent. I have a compaint/issue with Banque Atlantique. I helped arrange a business deal in the Ivory Coast back last year relating to the supply of livestock medicine. He issued a Deutsche Bank International Bank Draft in the form of payment and left it at a law firm in Abidjan Ivory Coast.
A funded non resident merchant account has been set up for me with Banque Atlantique and the International Bank Draft has been left there. I was told the bank draft would be monetised and I would be able to initiate a swift transfer to my Bank in the U.K. in order to receive the sum and nothing more required this is what was said and what I was told.
The bank have come back and said this was on the 29th of July I cannot receive the funds for transfer without indigenous certificate of incorporation and that I should see my attorney about this who requires an advance fee to carry this out.
I have told the Attorney I am prepared to pay a fee for his service to me only after I receive the funds in my account as I believe this is fair.
Can you help me with this issue please let me know.
Name of Executive Director of Banque Atlantique I've had correspondence with Joseph Bakayoko and name of attorney I've had correspondence with (Chief) Muda Barack Azeez.
