My mother’s bangla name was slightly different than English one. But in my all academics the name is same. The officer denied to take my documents but afterwards I got a middleman who took 5000tk I bargained to 3500tk and paid it. And my work is done. Ironically the same officer took my documents this time 😂 Whatever, this system

They provide a detailed schedule outlining specific times and locations for various areas. People arrived carrying photocopies of all necessary land documents, such as titles, registration papers, and survey deeds, along with cash amounts for bribes. The process was so meticulously organized that it closely resembled an official government procedure, with orderly lines of landowners waiting their turn. By leveraging influence from high-ranking officials, I was able to negotiate and settle the bribery fee at 20,000 BDT. The location of the event is Atti Bazar in Keraniganj, Dhaka district.
Bangladesh Digital Survey is ongoing in Cox's Bazar Sadar. Surveyors demand 50,000 BDT to complete the process
SMS came from BRTA to collect digital number plate. Zone was BRTA purbachal. There was a long line of cars and some local man who are definitely in league with BRTA office offered they can bypass the long line and can collect the number plate within 10 mins. Was in hurry and didn't have time to wait for 2 hours in a line, so paid the amount. The BRTA office definitely delays the process wo that people get forced to pay the bribe.
My land was acquired by government for new road construction . Government approved money for acquisition but when I went DC office for withdrawal of money they demand bribe . I was totally helpless and i paid.
My US employer demanded a police background check before hiring me for a remote tech job. The procedure was very simple as I could easily apply online. Paid the fine for that too. But a police officer physically came to my address to verify and he was bothered by the fact that why there are so many cctv camera in my garage. Eventually he took me outside the building, and demanded 2000 tk for verification. I said that I already paid the fee. He clearly said, lakh lakh tk uran amake 2000 taka dite gaye lage? Mamla ase likhe dibo report e. I didn't advance the conversation and paid him 1500. Got the clearance within 2-3 days
Demands 500 taka per return to submit each return, or they will send customs to office, harassing people
When I tried to create a trade license following the confusing instructions on their website, I got stuck. Later when I went to the city corporation office, one guy said I had missing documents (although I had submitted everything). Then I went to another guy who said they will handle it, and I'd have to give them "khoroch pati"
Came and threatened to hike up municipality tax almost 20X during assessment. Said we had to pay a small portion of it and they would not assess that way. It was extortion. But not much of a decision, given there was no recourse.
We have submitted ours documents to inherit my fathers all lands among ourselves as he died long before. Land office demand 30000 bdt and we already paid 10k, rest will be paid after completion.
আমার বাসার মিটারের জন্য ব্যাটারি প্রয়োজন ছিল। এই ব্যাটারিটি ফ্রি হওয়ার কথা ছিল। কিন্তু আমাকে ফ্রি এর বদলে ৩৫০ টাকা দেওয়া প্রয়োজন পড়েছে। এর মধ্যে ২০০ টাকা নিয়েছে ডিপিডিসি অফিসে যার থেকে আমি ব্যাটারিটা কালেক্ট করি। বাকি ১৫০ টাকা পরিশোধ করতে হয়েছে যেই ব্যক্তিটি আমার বাড়িতে এসে মিটারের মধ্যে ব্যাটারি সংযোগ করে দিয়েছে।
I took all the required document properly but somehow it was not enough. For my Newborn's Birth Certificate i need to show my fathers holding tax. Even after showing that he kept me waiting for days. then asked for 1000tk. After giving the money, he asked me to come next day. This cycle followed 3times until i finally received the certificate. Baffled how this country is running its civil services.
Normally driving test is a three step examination. First you have to pass the written, then viva then practical to qualify for the test. I successfully passed the written and viva, was confident about my practical too. But in the practical exam line i found lot of people who were also passed in previous written, viva but got failed in practical because of not contacting a dalal. I got nervous but still confident about my driving. They didn’t said anything, in the evening result came out and i was fail. Then i contacted with a dalal and without even driving a car or bike i got passed. I have to gave hime 4000 for just passing in the practical.
I wanted to get my driving licence the right way, but when the system demands ৳12,000, what choice does an ordinary person have?
Sandi at the land office forced to do it.
I am currently working in a Govt. owned autonomous power plant. After joining, a police verification process was initiated by the office as required. The officer visited my permanent address at Patuakhali, as only our caretaker lives there he only checked out the house, asked some info and left. Few days later he came to Barishal where my parents live in their owned house (probably found address from info given by caretaker) unannounced. Then he show the village house photos and was talking about family with my father. Although he did not ask for the bribe but he implied he visited here and there with his bike. And my father gave him the money so that the verification process doesn’t hamper.
