[Resolved]  HDFC Bank — Car loan

Dear Sir/ Ma’m

Loan Ref. No. – 13389700

I, Sumit Budhiraja, had applied for car loan in the month of June 2008. On 14th June 2008, I was paid visit by your representative for car inspection followed by office inspection. No reply/confirmation followed from your office.
On 25th July 2008, I received phone call from your side that car need to be inspected again. On 28th July 2008, car photographs were again taken. I was told reason, that nothing had happened on processing of my loan file, so the previous inspection report had expired.
Again no further response from your side.
Shockingly, on 9th August 2008, at 4:09 PM, I received a SMS at my mobile from HDFC-BANK, that my first EMI of Rs. 9276/- is due on 7th September 2008.

I demand an explanation that till date I have not received any communication/ confirmation and more so over, no cheque/ payment from the HDFC Bank, then how come you can demand EMI from me.

I wonder, which is this kind of banking, where without giving loan to borrower, the lender (HDFC) demands repayment.

I am completely baffled and frustrated at such a lingering and dark functioning of the bank. I state in clear terms, that you cancel this loan with immediate effect, I am not liable for a single paise payment to you, and if you people try to harass me, I would be forced to lawful measures against Bank.

You are advised to revert to me with the confirmation of cancellation of this phantom loan and return my documents at the earliest.

I have already waited for your response since June 2008 and now bullishly you demand EMI without disbursing loan to the borrower.

I got PL from you on Feb'08'.Since Jan'09', there is no cheque bouncing, But this month i.e., Feb'09', Our bank return the cheque due to your irregular statement.As per your schedule, you are making confusion in banking statement. So Immediately You send me your Repayment Schedule with O/s principal in mail itself.
I totally agree with sumit as i have applied a new car loan for fiat linea emotion with HDFC on 26th jan 2009 and i was committed by bank officials that loan will get approved and disbursed within four working days. Secondly i have residents proof for haryana and loan was approved from delhi which i have clearly stated from the very beginning but now as on 16th feb 2009 they have disbursed loan amount to dealer and not giving me a NOC for registering my car from haryana. Now i am helpless because i don't have a residence proof for delhi so i cant get a registration from delhi and as committed by bank and not done is that m not getting the NOC so i cant register my car from nowhere. Margin money which i have paid for booking is strucked with dealer. Even there is no instructions to cancel the loan.

This is to bring to your notice that my father took car loan from HDFC Bank and for this submitted post dated cheques for EMI deduction. There were cheques of 3 banks it that. A schedule was provided to us as to how HDFC Bank will place the cheques and adequate fund was kept in those accounts.

But HDFC Bank placed the cheques in the wrong order and as a result a cheque bounced.

For that, they called my father at their Durgapur Branch and intimated the issue, but never mentioned that a fine has been levied for the same.

Now in Feb 2009 when the repayment was fully completed, they informed that still Rs. 2400 was pending due to that fine. My father had to cough up that additional amount which he could have well payed at the time when he was called up at their office.

So, firstly wrongly placing the cheques and then not informing about the fine when it was first imposed. This is disgusting to say the least and I hope all other who are facing similar problems will bring them to the forefront so that the general public become aware of the fraudulent tactics employed by HDFC Bank.

Thank you,

Hi,

Here i am mentioning the irresonsible, non reliable face of HDFC bank.
I called HDFC customer care and ask for CAR loan.Executive from their DST team HBL contacted and ask the details of my father(Govt Employee in state Gov, Loan to be processs for him only).Another day an executive came to me without any I Card.I ask for his identification, even i called HDFC customer care.Customer care response was that they are nowhere in this matter whereas i start this process from customer care only.Aneway i gave him all the docs.He promised me even his superiors promised me that it will be approved with in 3 days and i can get my car to be delivered on wednesday.Verfication was done by next day.I was happy with their promtness.I was waiting for their Approval.No response, i called them on tuesday, they told me due to shortage of stationary it will approved by friday.I can get my car on friday.I said OK.Then on wednesday they ask me track record of my father for any Loan availed by my father and without taht it wont be approved.Finally I ask him to cancel the loan request as we cant provide you any track record.

I am very much surprised from their unprofessional way of working.
Now i am asking for my docs back their response is "our excecutive will give you after 3 or 4 days whenever he will passing near by you".

Its really shows HDFC bank's Unprofessional, Non REliable, Iresonsible Image.

Respected Sir,

I am in the receipt of your letter quoted at reference 1. above the complaint has not yet been settled till date & the following points are submitted for the settlement.

1 HDFC Bank has submitted you the statement of previous financer i.e. ICICI Bank which has been foreclosure by
Undersigned till last installment & not by the DSA.

2 The DSA has not yet paid the principal amount and compensation amount of Rs.1 Lac. In our settlement meeting
It was decided that out of Principal amount Rs.40,000, next installment paid by the DSA where as he paid only 1
Installment Rs.28708, & he has paid by DD No. 039377 of HDFC Bank, Dharmpeth branch of Rs. 11,000/- &
Rs. 292 are still balance along with Rs.1 Lac of compensation.

3 However HDFC Bank has assured all charges bounce, late payment & interest will be waived off at time of
Foreclosure charges.

4 In spite of this we have been threatened by many letters reference 5 that your car will be sized with in 7days &
Auctioned & harassing on phone calls also.

5 At one point HDFC Bank has regretted that DSA have defaulted, wide their letter reference 3.

6 It is also seen that in ICICI Bank statement a co applicant was shown naming Mr. Supinder Singh Amrit Singh
Nanda, who has not yet been consulted during this sanctioning of refinancing of car.

7 A d-met account had also been operated by Mr. Manoj, resident bhandara against my A/c no. without my
Knowledge.

8 From the above facts it is seen that I am not at fault & Bank has forcibly given my name in the civil which
Should be removed/deleted as I am not at all at any fault. I had taken this loan for some business purpose which
Has been totally defeated rather, I am in agony & have been harassed by paying the installments in both banks
Resulting I was put into losses at the last I request with folded hands to help me out in toto.

Yours Sincerely,

Damandeep Singh Nanda.

Please also direct them in case the loan is not approved then they will return the whole amount of Rs 5000/- which is taken by them.
