Payment online via credit/debit card, payment via cheque through the post, on the phone, in person, or even through your local post office - but hey! That would require good communication, good planning, systems interoperability & collaboration. Something they're clearly not adept to. So much for a "modern" governmental outfit!

They <i>refused</i> to collect the cheque of the charges for my company this morning insisting that it should either be paid in by me personally - as the owner - or someone they have registered in their database as an authorised person - the clearing agent! So either I have to waste half a day going there and paying their cheque every month, or have to engage the services of this clearer and pay him BD20 or so for the privilege every single time! Can we collectively say embezzlement to describe this action, or complete and utter foolishness on their part? Man don’t get me started on them..

Would be interesting to find out where these individuals work - anyone willing to do the dirty work?
