If you have "blocked" a guarantee, and the beneficiary's bank calls on the guarantee, the client's bank must pay - in funds (not instruments) the face value of the guarantee. An Letter of Credit is not "blocked", but set operative. See the Swift website for a full definition of the procedure with the rest of the banking procedures. These procedures will be replaced by XML based message formats, and these procedures are called "MX".
