Starting Monday (November 9), in addition to the counters at Alta Banka’s main branch in Bitola, branches in Strumica and Tetovo will reopen for citizens without payment cards, who will be able to withdraw up to 20,000 denars. At the same time, the weekly limit for card usage is being increased from 10,000 to 15,000 denars.
Meanwhile, political accusations regarding the case have continued. Alta Banka Bitola is a sound financial institution and there is no reason for concern, as it holds more assets than liabilities, PM Mickoski said on Friday. He revealed that meetings would be organized in the coming days to find a buyer.
On Saturday, Citizens from Prilep, Resen, and Ohrid — primarily pensioners who do not have payment cards — were brought by organized buses to Bitola on Saturday, outside the main branch of Alta Banka, so they could withdraw their money over the counter.
