[Resolved]  ICICI Bank — 20/10/2008 QABChgs,Jul-Sep 08+Ser Tax 93 DR INR 843.00

Hi,
Same complaint against ICICI is also listed o this site (from Mr.Abdul Hafiz Abdul Shakur Pathan)
Even my ICICI savings account was imposed the same transaction "ICICI Bank 20/10/2008 QABChgs, Jul-Sep08+Serv Tax93 DR INR 843.00" on 20/10/08.
I sent out email to ICICI but no replies. Per their website, they should response within 24hrs.
How come any bank impose charges without the knowledge of the account holder?
Shouldn't all the charges & policies (along with the hidden ones) be explained diligently during the account opening process?
ICICI bank has mentioned that any new/modified charges is posted on their site (www.icicibank.com), but I was not able to find this charge.
We should definitely sue this ICICI bank for their bad business practices. It's no wonder that people dont trust this bank anymore, people withdrawing their money is fully justified. I am pretty sure that ICICI worst business practices are another major factor apart from the economic recession.
I have asked ICICI to revert the charges, will go to court if they don't rectify.

They are blood sucker for the account holder, thats why .. they are getting such response from public. I am also the victim of same case.. QABChgs, Jul-Sep08+Serv Tax93" 843 Rs. Mr Kamath ads. on TV will not prevent the bank unless you save the account holders.

There is no information as such that they are going to min 10k balance in s. acc. They always send the reminders via SMS, they why this not send ??

We all should come togather and raise our voice.

I too got charged the same amount

20/10/2008 QABChgs, Jul-Sep08+Serv Tax93 843.00

I dont understand why they Dr. the amount . I had sent mail to ICICI but no response from them.
The same with my account[protected], they have cut off Rs.843 under QABChgs, Jul-Sep08+Serv Tax93, I dont understand the reason for doing something like this. They havent intimated that they would be doing something like this before. There is no reason for doing such a thing.
The same happened with my s/b a/c[protected] and my spouse a/c[protected] of
QABChgs, Jul-Sep08+Serv Tax93 charges Rs 843.00 in each a/c even we maintained min. balance of Rs 5000. I enquired with ICICI people about min. balace and they informed us that the min. balace of Rs 10, 000 applicable for new a/cs that opened after 1st Jan' 2008. and older a/c (opened before 01/01/2008) min. balance Rs 5000/- and we (me and my spouse) opened a/c 5 yrs back. I need justification why they gave such a falut statement and charged QABChgs, Jul-Sep08+Serv Tax93 in our a/cs. If they won't revert back the trasaction. we planning tp close our a/c's after removing all our amounts (demate, fds, mutual funds etc) and we won't do any transaction with this bank in future.
I have also faced this problem twice. They have charged Rs. 800+ for QABChgs. What is this.
QABChgs means Quarterly Average Balance Charges, Here From July to September. It is applicable if your a/c not maintained minimum amount. (say Rs 5000/-). ICICI recently increased minimum amount from Rs 5000/- to Rs 10, 000/-.
How it is justified not maintaining of Rs 5000/- the penalty is Rs 3372/- Per Annum (Rs 843/- Quarterly X 4). Really They are blood suckers. Now it is the time to teach them lesson by closing all our accounts like saving a/c, demat a/c, mutual funds etc and move to some other nationalized banks.
I have faced the same problem. As per my knowledge, the 5000/- (or even the 10, 000/-) is the minimum QUARTERLY BALANCE that needs to be maintained. As such, if the balance goes below the minimum for just 1 day (as in my case), it really should not be penalised, since for the remaining days in that quarter, there was enough funds available. ICICI might be sweet with words, but definitely they are not very clean in their business

I fully agree with this complaint QABChgs, Oct-Dec08+ST93 rs.843. Thats a lot of money, i don't think they would give me even rs 50 if i ask them for free.

There was one time that i was advised to change my debit card to a GRID debit card. i was told that this would be free of cost to upgrade the debit card. But after the process is done i was still charged. When i go to complain about this, i was told to undergo so many unnecessary things, making it very complicated to rectify the error which was DELIBRATELY?? caused by the bank.

I am not at all satisfied with their services anymore. All this little hidden charges which is rather SHOCKING to us customers, i don't think they wanted to have a fair and good relationship with their customer.
Hi All,
Same complaint .-Even my ICICI savings account was imposed the same transaction " QABChgs, Oct-Dec08+ST93 INR 843.00" on 11/01/09.
I sent out email to ICICI but no replies. Per their website, they should response within 24hrs.
I would say the consumer court must take a legal action againt ICICI bank on same issue otherwise they will keep on doing the same for all the ICICI customers.
Really They are blood suckers..
Same with me...although my average balance for quarter was abaove 10000...still charged rs.843...witout prior information...
My account was also changed a similar amount. I called the customer care and they told me that the Minimum Quarterly Balance has been increased to 10, 000/- from 5, 000/-. For not maintaining the same, the charge has been levied.

This is such a load of crap. I never got any information from ICICI in this regard.
My account is zero balance account. How can they charge QABCHGS CHARGES for zero balance account
Yes, hey are blood suckers..pl.stay away from them
Same thing happened with my mother's ICICI account. The bank has charged a fee of Rs. 976, the ministatement says its some "QABCHGS" and she is going to close the account today!!!
Hey did anyone of you got any response from ICICI regarding your complaints? Did the bank refund the charges????
Thanks in advance.
Hi All,

The same thing Happened with my Wife's account. They are withdwaring an amount of around Rs 850 in every 3 months saying "QABChgs, Jul-Sep08+Serv Tax93" etc in the transaction report. This bank is not at all trustworthy and cheating people !
