[Resolved] HDFC Bank — Sudden Closure of Current A/c | |
This is to inform you about the sudden closure of my current account (#) on 24th January, which was linked to my savings/salary account #. Since the weekend of 26th January, I had stopped seeing the current account in the Accounts list on the Net Banking menu. I did not react to this for a period of 3 days, under the impression that this was due to a major server upgrade that was scheduled at your end during the weekend. Finally, on 31st Jan I wrote an email to your support center demanding an explanation for the disappearance of my account. The reply on the next day said that my identity could not be verified, although this is the same email address that is registered with you. On the same day, I posted the same query through net banking (ref. P[protected]. On the evening of 2nd February, I received a statement for the closed account mentioning that the account had been closed due to ‘Amount due from you + Penal Int’. On receiving this, I called Phone-Banking to enquire about the same. Since the phone-banker couldn’t resolve the issue, I demanded to escalate the call to a supervisor. The supervisor registered the complaint & assured of a reply by 3pm on Monday. After my call was made, an email was dropped by Silvy Abraham from your branch at the registered ID informing me about the closure. At 6 pm on Monday, the 4th, the supervisor (Ms. Meghna) told me that someone from the branch would be speaking to me this evening; but no one called. I am extremely disappointed by all this & request you to please consider the following facts: 1. Failure to reverse ATM Charges The ATM card had been used at another bank’s ATM sometime during September or October due to which a charge of Rs.28 was made. Despite of the allowance of 10 free transactions at any bank’s ATM every month, this charge was not reversed for 3 months. Following this, interest was capitalized on this amount for 3 consequent months. 2. Expected inflow of cash in the closed account I was expecting a re-imbursement from my employer, M/s Larsen & Toubro Infotech Ltd., towards the end of January after a 4 month long procedure. Due to this sudden closure, I am going to have to face inconvenience to have this amount credited back to my account. 3. Lack of customer concern Since this account was linked to a salary account and under a corporate scheme; the bank should have shown some concern by communicating about the closure. I wouldn’t have hesitated to transfer Rs.30 from my salary account to avoid any further chaos. Such unprofessional behavior wasn’t expected from the bank with repute. 4. Repeated issues with the bank I had filled the form for this account on 19th July, 2007 and my account wasn’t processed for the next 45 days. Moreover, I was made to re-fill a form towards the end of August. Due to this, there was a delay in receipt of my first salary, an event which has unspoken importance. Though I had not escalated the issue at that time, I now believe that I should have. Despite of having an option to open my account with another leading bank, I chose HDFC Bank due to its trusted brand image. But I am sorry to inform you that over the last six months, I have received great disappointment from the services offered. I hereby request you to look into the matter & re-open my current a/c retaining the a/c no. as I am expecting some more payments to that account. Also ensure that any transactions that failed due to this closure are completed as soon as possible. Please resolve the matter at the earliest. Was this information helpful? | |

This is on behalf of my wife who has an account with HDFC Bank, Mumbai.. She has a credit card of HDC Bank as well. Earlier there were some dispute regarding the amount due on her credit card. We had sent reconciliations of the amount due and numerous letters. We requested the bank to sit across the table to reconcile any differences. But the bank did not respond at all. Meanwhile, her salary bank account has been frozen by the bank without even intimating us and the bank threatens to debit the account for the outstanding dues. The collections head at Andheri E refuses to respond favourably to any efforts from our side to reconcile and unfreeze the account. I am sure the bank does not have any authority to unilateraly decide freezing of the bank account without intimation. Can you help me in this matter and the future course of action. Regards Shriram
HDFC Bank — All the amount which was in my account suddenly disappear
I have HDFC salary account. My salary got credited on 01/11/2009 and the neat day whole amount of Rs. 17000.48 got dissappear. I did'nt withdraw or used my money any where. When i removed the mini statement it is not reflecting any transaction of the same amount. I asked the bank they told me that someone has done online shopping of the whole amount at once. When i asked them to give me the details as where the amount has been transferred or given and where the shopping is done, they said that they don't have any details for the same. Please help me. Oh dear! that's so pathetic!
The similar thing happened to one of my friend but with the ICICI bank..and then they said the amount has been cut off for some insurance plan which my friend even don't know about.
So pathetic, I really say.

He talled me OK for the transfer and I submit the Transfer Form to RM.After 5-6 days I call the RM for my a/c is transfer or not. He can’t pick up my phone. Then I go to bank and ask the RM WHY MY A/C IS NOT TRANSFER? He told me the form is misplaced and I also sign a new form and get it to the RM.Then after I go to bank after 15 days, he talled me I forget your form and say SORRY. Then He talled, in some days I will transfer you’re a/c.But he can’t process to my A/c and when I ask him WHY MY A/C IS NOT TRANSFER? He tells me I forget your form in my DRAWER. Then after he can’t start the process to transfer the A/c. Now I am tried from him .In now a days, I go to bank regularly and ask my a/c is transferred or not. He can’t give me the reply about my a/c is not transferred or not. Then in November I will repeat the process to transfer my a/c.I will go to bank Many times but operator told me go to there and there. At last I decided to close my a/c and I go to branch to close my a/c, I take a form for closing the A/c.But at that time one employee of the bank to co-operate with me and support me to transfer the A/c.Then I think let me the last try. I agree with him. Last time i.e. 3rd time I fill up the transfer form and submit it to operator. After 5-6 days I go to bank for confirmation, my a/c is transfer or not. At that time Operator talled me the form is rejected because he forget to write the CUST ID in the form and then he send my form to the main office. These whole processes are running 15-20 days. And last my a/c is transferred and my new a/c no. is given to me. In these all process I will charge from bank to NOT MAINTAIN the Balance in the A/c.I ask one thing WHY I SHOULD PAY THE CHARGE .Your employees is faulty in these whole process and I will get a charge because of my a/c is not transferred at right time. I m not responsible to pay the charges against your employees fault.So I will tell try to help to solve these problem as soon as possible.
