The best customer service explanation.... Ever...
Cust: How long will it take to clear my cheque?
Exec: 3 days sir
Cust: My bank and the payee bank are next to each other, so why 3 days?
Exec: There are few procedures to follow... For ex:
You are going for a trip and there is a graveyard on the way, and you die 2 meters before it. Will they take you and burry in the graveyard immediately? No, they will take you to your house, do all the respects and then bury you later, after all those long procedures....
Similarly banks do follow rules too....
