Meezan Bank Under Fire for Allegedly Freezing Customer Account Without Legal Basis

After submitting a handwritten complaint to his local branch on 14 July 2025, followed by an email on 15 July, he was given Complaint ID C2507250576 on 25 July. However, by 29 July, Meezan Bank abruptly closed the complaint without providing any updates or documentation.
