Banks in the UAE have suspended the accounts of customers who failed to update their Emirates ID details last month, leaving some residents unable to use their credit and debit cards for shopping and cash withdrawals.
The move is in compliance with a directive from the UAE Central Bank, which has mandated financial institutions to update identification records of customers within a specified timeframe.
Banks had earlier posted notifications and sent out text messages to customers, reminding them to have their ID details updated by February 28, 2019, to avoid interruption to their banking services. Customers were asked to share a copy of their Emirates ID with the bank either via SMS, email or by contacting their relationship manager, if any.
“If the bank has not been able to verify your Emirates ID details within this time, restrictions will be placed on any debit/ credit cards provided and internet / mobile banking services until this information is provided,” Commercial Bank International (CBI) stated on its website.
Shaker Zainal, head of retail banking at CBI, confirmed that, with the deadline already over, some customer accounts have already been deactivated in line with the Central Bank requirements.
“As per Central Bank regulations, CBI introduced service disruption consequences for customers who failed to comply with this regulatory requirement. As a result, debit and credit cards - including ATM cash withdrawals - were suspended post the February 28 deadline."
"These measures will remain in effect until the affected customers update their Emirates ID information,” he added, noting that direct debit transactions have not been affected.
Suvo Sarkar, senior executive vice president and head of retail, banking and wealth management at Emirates NBD, confirmed that they have also suspended some customer accounts.
“As per Central Bank guidelines, customers who did not update their details within the given timeframe faced suspension of their debit or credit card, following which the card cannot be used for any transaction, such as ATM cash withdrawals, retail purchases or e-commerce transactions,” Sarkar said in a statement sent to Gulf News.
“The suspension remains in force until the customer updates their details with us.”

Sarkar, however, clarified that since the bank has been proactively encouraging residents to update their records, the vast majority of its customers have not experienced any service interruption. "Only a very small percentage of customer accounts have been suspended."
“We are pleased to note that we have seen most of our customers update their details successfully in recent months. Customers who are yet to update their details are requested to do so at the earliest to continue enjoying seamless banking services,” Sarkar added.
CBI said in its notice that the ID details are required to meet “regulatory obligations to the Central bank of the UAE,” as well as their legal obligations internationally. Banks also want to ensure the “accurate and efficient running of customers’ accounts."

Dubai: Etisalat said on Wednesday its shareholders have backed the board’s plan to give a dividend of 80 fils per share for 2018, maintaining its level compared to the previous year.
The company had posted a net profit after royalty of Dh8.6 billion in 2018, up 2.4 per cent on year. Revenues came in at Dh52.4 billion last year.
“Etisalat Group continued to achieve strong financial performance and maintained its high credit rating reflecting its efforts to provide value to shareholders, which was the drive behind proposing a final dividend of Dh0.4 per share, bringing the total dividends for the year to Dh0.80, in line with our policy in previous years,” Eisa Mohammad Al Suwaidi, Chairman, Etisalat Group said in a statement. A total of 80 fils per share dividend would represents a dividend yield of 4.7 per cent and dividends payout ratio of around 81 per cent. The company also approved a proposal to lift shareholder voting rights.
“Telecom companies have stable businesses in the UAE. They are looked at as strong cash generators. The dividend-preferring investors like to invest in these stocks,” Vrajesh Bhandari, senior portfolio manager with Al Mal Capital told Gulf News.
Abu Dhabi National Insurance Company (Adnic) said its shareholders have approved to give 30 per cent cash dividends or 30 Fils per share. In value terms, the dividend would mean a payout of Dh112.5 million an increase of 20 per cent from last year.
Adnic delivered a strong set of results for the full year ended 2018, with gross written premiums up by 10.1 per cent year-on-year to Dh2.91 billion, driven by growth across core lines of business.
Emaar Properties said it plans to give a cash dividend of 15 per cent or Dh1.07 billion for 2018 — almost equal to that last year — but was lower than market expectations. Other Emaar companies such as Emaar Malls and Emaar Development also announced their dividends.
“The dividend announcements from Emaar Group of Companies are in line with our expectations. Market chatter is retail investors were hoping for higher and to that extend may stand disappointed a little,” Bhandari said.
“The parent company has a large announced capex [capital expenditure] plan worth Dh25 billion and also they would not want to pay anything higher that is not sustainable over the next few years,” Bhandari added.
Emaar Malls announced a cash dividend of 10 per cent or Dh1.3 billion. Emaar Development also announced a cash dividend of 26 per cent or Dh1.04 billion. Emaar companies will hold its annual general meeting on April 23.

Omrania, a leading architectural and engineering consultancy practice based in Saudi Arabia, said it has won an international competition to design King Salman Park, which is set to become the largest city park in the world.

Spread over a sprawling 13.4-sq-km area, King Salman Park will take shape on the grounds of the old airport in Riyadh.
One of the kingdom's ambitious projects, King Salman Park was recently launched by King Salman bin Abdulaziz along with three other wellbeing projects worth $23 billion in the capital Riyadh mainly aimed at improving the lives of its citizens besides transforming the city into an attractive destination and making it one of the world’s most livable cities.

The other three - Sports Boulevard, Green Riyadh and Riyadh Art - complement the Saudi Vision 2030’s “Quality of Life” Programme and are aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, to create sustainable cities and communities, while driving urgent action against climate change.
With this project, the government aims to provide a rich variety of options in sports, culture, art, entertainment for Riyadh citizens and visitors.
A green oasis in an urban setting, the giant leisure facility will have various gardens covering more than 400,000 sq m; a circular pathway running 7.2-km long for pedestrians; a valley area of over 800,000 sq m; and various water features which total over 300,000 sq m.
The King Salman Park will also boast residences and hotels besides featuring a Royal Arts Complex, theatres, museums, cinemas, sports venues, water features, restaurants and an 18-hole Royal Golf Course.

Besides this, it will be home to several landmark assets, including the Riyadh Fountains and a Vertical Garden.
The park will be at a strategic location in the heart of Riyadh linked to six main roads and highways. It will be connected to King Abdulaziz Public Transit Network through five metro stations on the Green lLine and 10 bus stations of Riyadh Bus Network.

The multiple links make the King Salman Park accessible from almost every part of the city.
As an environmentally sustainable urban development, it will offer opportunities for the international community in arts, entertainment and culture.
A major player in the Saudi market, Omrania has also worked on international projects in 11 countries in the Middle East (in addition to Saudi Arabia) and North Africa and five countries in Europe.-Trade Arabia News Service
