DoD Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 coors, this happens to be in Dubai an Sharjah is a not so good part of the city. I know because I stayed there for a week-end. It doesn't surprise me that a bank would install cameras on their ATM's directly linked to the police station in that neighborhood. Glad to see Warka Bank has ATM's an maybe a bank or two in the emirates... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NMP2017 Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 Read on another site the photo is from 2008. Email I have from Warka is they are working on getting their Mastercard licence back but it is not available yet. Warka has an upcoming General Assembly meeting, no date yet, which many are waiting for as well. I got the link from the other site https://www.gettyimages.com/photos/w...opular#license 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never could get it to work over here but I still have it. I'm wondering if they would give us foreigners another one when they get all their banking issues straightened out, just trying to figure out a way to spend the money in my Dinar account...

There's that magic word,,, lol I'm waiting impatiently for Warka to get their Mastercard again,,,, Ramadan starting on the 15th so looks like it'll be a while still before any more happens.
