Employee's Providents Fund Organisation [EPFO] Complaints & Reviews

1. Employer in many cases try to hinder the employee in claiming the pf for some reasons at work. For this reason claiming/transfer method changed to get the claim/transfer by the consent of either old or new employer. This was great.

2. Now, offline system abandoned to digitization of entire process. This was applauded.

3.in digitalization, again employee has to consult the oldemployer to get the transfer.
Because, joining date, closing date, kyc to be done only by the concerned employer. This system changed the whole equation to 3 years back.

4. Although kyc can be done by the new employer (I[censored]an is same for both) still, joining date closing date updation to be done by old employer. Epf allowed to created many uan for one employee and it also failed to update (Or reject closing dates beyond new joining date) the closing date once the new joining date furnished by new employee. Its a logical failure.

5. If kyc is mandatory, epfo shouldn't allow to open the pf account without kyc.

6. Epfo allowed to remmit funds into old claimed/unclaimed accounts whose date of joining is years ago than the account in the very previous job. This created even big problem in getting those funds.

7. Employees at epfo comeup with strange replies just to avoid the situation rather than clearing the complaint. I trust employees of epfo are in stress in handling so many requests a day.

8. Finally, problems are on epfo side and struggle is on consumer side.

I had submitted an online claim for my pf on 5/3/2019. Claim status showed "settled on 15/3/2019 and money transferred through neft". It is 29/3/2019 today and i still haven't got my money in my account. Epf grievance submitted multiple times. Contacted them on facebook by commenting on a wall post. And after 5 days, the response i got was "your money will be credited shortly". Its been 4 days now. Even money order would have reached sooner.

1. Define "neft".
2. Define "shortly".

I called the epfo office at bandra on the following number:
[protected]. My call was initially not received. I called back again a few times and then the call was answered but the receiver was kept aside or the phone was kept on mute. And this is happening again and again.

This is really very very irritating as i don't have time to keep calling and what is the use of giving phone numbers for these government offices when they just don't pick up calls!!

The number given for office located at thane is out of service!

We requested for transferring our family pension from epfo, meerut to epfo, kolkata. According to https://mis.epfindia.gov.in/PensionPaymentEnquiry/pensionStatus.jsp pension has been transferred to kokata. Inspite of visiting epfo, kolkata every month from last one year no update from there. From past 3 years we have not received our pension as we requested for transfer. We faced a lot of difficulty because of this. Kindly start our pension at the earliest possible as we have no earning member in our family as my father passed away o 7th of december 2013. Kindly help me with the same. Already complaint on the portal-kolkata office has sent a request for sending the duplicate copy of the pension documents. Kindly do the needful at the earliest possible.

This is with reference to my epfo pension application. My last employment eps with ro, coimbatore was withdrawn by mistake.
I applied for pension to ro, thane along with my scheme certificates. My pension application was rejected after taking processing time of eight months. And now ro, thane says that my pension application is pertaining to ro, coimbatore. But, ro, coimbatore says that i can not apply pension to it's office.
I have sent so many emails to ro, thane and ro, coimbatore. No solution was given by concerned both offices in order to resolve my pension application. All my emails, registration of grievances and my phone calls, escalation of my complaint have not been resolved so far. I have lost my confidence with epfo, ro, thane and coimbatore. Please tell me what i should do with my scheme certificates. Please grant me pension or please refund all my eps amount in the attached two scheme certificates.

Dear sir,
I myself was working as technician in active automobiles sarkhej branch ahmedabad. I left the job in 2016 keeping pf amount there only my pf account id was uan [protected].
It is very much surprising that since last few months my pf approval is not fulfilled or approved by the dealer stating that there are several changes in hrs of company and response by pf consultant. This all are legal responsibility by dealer only to clear pf transfer request.
Present hr manager of active automobiles sarkhej branch ahmedabad gujarat is giving one or other excuses to transfer the pf.
As such behaviour is illegal unconstitutional under the law. It is very much surprising that hon'ble pm shri is encouraging such young employees for doing good savings by pf and your such unconstitutional illegal behaviour by the dealer ie tata active and his hr manager is against the government policy which is required to be taken very seriously and with serious action and instruct dealer to clear pf immediately in my account valay b patel ([protected]) cc to 1) director tata automobiles pune 2) hr manager active automobiles sarkhej branch ahmedabad gujarat 3) hon'ble minister shri ministry of labour and employment government of india 4) hon'ble shri pm office delhi pmo house

The cheque was cleared in oct-2018 its self and credited in the epfo account. However, as on date, the requested transfer amount was not reflecting in uan account. I am living in delhi and the zonal pf office is situated in mumbai, so i am unable to track it from pf office. I have tried to filed grievances on epfo site as well. I am trying from last one month but the pf site is not working properly therefore, not able to submit the request online. I have also trying to reach pf office through my company pf consultant but the pf officer handling my case is not entertaining us and keeping on saying that she will approve the transfer in next 1-2 days. We are following her from last 3 months and every time we are getting the same reply that she is busy in some work and she will approve it in next 1-2 days. I am in urgent need of fund but if the same is not transferred i can not used that fund. Please help me out in this situation.
