Dear Customer,

Please refer to my earlier letters requesting you again and again to provide us application fee required to obtain a consent letter from the Ambassador of your Country represented here in the United Kingdom.

Inspite of repeated reminders, you haven't taken note of my request.

By ignoring this procedure, you are damaging the excellent credit record you had previously maintained with us. In addition, you are incurring additional expenses in form of overdue interest and penal

interest to your self, unless you are planning to forfeit your funds.

Please note, if we don't hear positively from you within 24 hours, we will have no other option but to refer your fund to as abandoned and allow the British Government to initiate legal action prior to confiscation of fund so that we can delete your name from our record.

Hope, you will take note of this final reminder. Thanking you,

Yours Faithfully,

Desk Of The Group Chairman, John McFarlane
