Respected Sir,

I am Saptarshi Banerjee of 59 Post Office Rd, Natun Para, Kolkata:700093. (Mobile number: +91-[protected])
A year back I applied for a personal loan of 1 lakh rupees from HDFC Bank, Kolkata (My loan account number is:[protected] for which I am paying an EMI of Rs. 2860/month through ECS system. This month January 2010, I missed one EMI due to some personal reasons. After that a personnel (Reshmi) from HDFC called me up to make that payment as CASH along with Cheque Bounce Charge. I made the payment the next day (16-Jan-2010) of amount Rs.[protected]+450) (Receipt Number:[protected]. But on 18-Jan-2010 I find that my account has been debited once again by HDFC of amount Rs. 2860. I called them up, but they say that the amount that I have submitted by cash will take 4 days to update, and in the mean time if there is amount in my bank account (within a span of 18 days) it would be automatically deducted. What kind of behavior is this? And also they are not ready to take a complaint. If I make a cash payment why not the account gets updated at then and there? And who would bear this loss of amount. Even if I get back the amount after say 10 days, who will pay me the interest for that amount, that I would have got if that amount was there in the account. Please help me regarding this.

Hi,
I had an SBI account and debit card and I was happy with it .But when I joined Tata Consultancy Services, they wanted all employees to have an HDFC account as their service account probably because of a tie up with the bank.
Now on 9.1.2010 at 1 pm, my wallet containg my hdfc credit card([protected]) and hdfc bank debit card([protected]) was stolen from inside my bag and before I realised and reported on the same day, the thief had shopped for Rs 70000.Now few questions I have
1>Why does HDFC bank not have a pin authorisation for shopping on all its cards.
2>How can the merchants allow a guy to use a girl's card and get away with a false signature on charge slip without any identification.
As contacted with the bank I have submitted disputed transactions for both my cards but I don't have any visibility of what is going with my complaints.
For the required documents I have been running from police station to all the vendors to notary etc for several days now and after doing all that I am in no mood to pay for a thief's shopping with 3 month's salary of mine.
Please help me take this issue forward so that proper rules are in place and no one else is harassed like this.

I purchased an insurance policy from HDFC BANK of Rs.25000/- Premium. I did't get the policy papers for 1 month. I complained to bank , they replied i will get it soon as it has been dispatched. After 2 months I gave a request letter for surrender of policy and refund of the amount of premium. They gave me received for the application. But it has been more than 6 months I did't get my policy or any refund from bank. I am continuously contacting the bank persons but nobody is ready to reply.

Dear Sir,

There has been a repeated illegal and disproportionate charges leved by hdfc bank, West Marredpally, Secunderabad. I had given a letter for closure one of my account no.[protected] more than a year back and opened another account with Rs.25000 minimum balance. It took the bank more than a year to close the abovementioned account despite repeated visits to the bank. In the meanwhile the bank charged around Rs.800 plus service tax and cess, for not maintaining quarterly balance, which, the manager said would reverted back. Eventually the manager resigned and my money was lost.

Further with the new account [protected], although I had Rs.25000 in fixed deposits, the bank charged me a penalty of Rs.1000 plus taxes etc. On questioning thay said that I should maintain Rs.50000 in FD in order not to face any penalty.

Recently, I had called the HDFC phone banking and requested a pin for my wife's debit card. They took the request and said they would charge Rs.25 or 50 for the same. It was agreed. The pin arrived and the statement arrived six charges of Rs.50 amounting to Rs.300. When questioned through the phone banking, I was told that we had called the phone banking 6 times and the charges were levied because my balance was low in the account. What has phone banking has got to do with balance in the account and such charges inappropriate and unauthorised. I would like the bank to prove if such rules exist in the bank. I dont remember calling the phone banking number six times for the same request but theer are chances that the call might have got disconnected.

I would call this DAY LIGHT ROBBERY by HDFC and would like all the charges reverted back.

Hello Team,

My name is Gaurav Sharma, working in Gurgaon. I have used my HDFC bank debit card for a transition on Bhagwati Departmental Store, Sector 17- Gaurgaon (Haryana), on 1st Nov 2009. That transition was failed due to communication failure. The amount of 1526 has been deducted from my account, but merchant said he didn't get that payment. Hdfc bank said we have already given that amount to merchant. Till today I haven’t get my money back its 2 and half month have been passed to my transition. Every time once in a week I launch a complaint to Hdfc bank. You can check a reference number 'HBL=[protected]'. I am attaching a screenshot of my account number. Kindly take a strict action against them.

Regards
Gaurav

Dear

I have been applied for an car loan, initially ROI (Rate of Intreset) Start by 10% pa reducing but after that some problem in approval / my verification, but after all verification completed & loan approved.

My self is co-applicant in this loan, loan is my father's name but my self is doing each & every thing for this, My self was not aware about loan EMI calculator & ROI (Reducing/Floating), so again & again I told HDFC Franchisee M/S Vasu Associates but his reply always you don't take any tension, we will take care but ultimately they cheat to me for ROI.

After approval of my loan they call to pick car then they demand cheques security as well as advance EMI, Intially they demand approx 5600/- EMI for 2.5 lacs for 60 months.& same time I said intially you commit for approx. 2100/- per lacs according that this amount should be approx. 5250/-., He told me we are unable to provide loan at 10% ROI we will provide minimum at 11.2% according that your's EMI will be 5510/- then my reply its ok but when I got chart for 60 EMI from bank then myself calculate as per chart & found ROI more than 12.0% then Lodge complaint in bank but bank not responding positively, Bank make an conference call between his franchisee & me ultimately no solution till date for rectification of my this problem.

As per 11.2% ROI EMI will be 5410/-pm, so i want change my EMI & take hard action against HDFC/Franchise for cheating with me.

I HAD OPENED SAVINGS MAX ACCOUNT AT HDFC BANK, DHANBAD DURING 1ST WEEK OF AUGUST'2009 WHERE ONE HAS TO MAINTAIN QAB Rs25,000/- AND PROVIDE FREE CREDIT CARD ( AS PROMISED BY HDFC BANK OFFICIALS). HOWEVER EVEN AFTER 4 MONTHS NO CREDIT CARD WAS ISSUED AND HDFC BANK OFFICIALS HAD ONLY VAGUE ANSWERS. HDFC BANK MAILED STATING THAT THEY "sincerely regret to inform that they are unable to offer credit
card services to me currently for the reason " Non sourcable area ( DHANBAD) " . THEN WHY AT THE TIME OF ACCOUNT OPENING AND EVEN TILL THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER HDFC BANK OFFICIALS LIED THAT CREDIT CARD WILL BE ISSUED? THIS IS A FIT CASE OF FRAUD & CHEATING TO CUSTOMER.
