HDFC Bank — Charge of program fee

Address:Mumbai City, Maharashtra, 400076

This mail is to notify you regarding a fee of rs.114/- towards program management that has been charged to my account on 28/03/2016.

On enquiring about this fee at the branch, i was told that it is a fee applied for preferred customers and for all the benefits that it entails.


I would like to let hdfc know that i never voluntarily signed up for being a preferred customer, neither did i ever request for the facility of a relationship manager.
I do not understand how hdfc bank can impose such a fee on customers who trust the bank by depositing huge sums of money in it. In addition to this, a matter of concern is that the fee was deducted without any prior intimation or notification of the same.
I have savings accounts in other private as well as nationalized banks and have never come across such a fee.


I request hdfc to kindly reverse this fee back to my account with immediate effect, and may remove any such privileges to me which are attached to this fee.


Looking forward to prompt action in this matter.
