HDFC Bank — Deduction of so called "program management fee" | |||
I am having a regular saving account with HDFC. I can see that the HDFC bank has deducted Rs. 114.5 from my account under the name- Program management fee. What is this fee about? What is the program the bank is offering? The bank did not notify me earlier about any such fees. It is a fraud to deduct customer's money without taking their concerns. I want this so called fee deposited back to my account. Was this information helpful? | |||

I am having a classic account with HDFC. I can see that the HDFC bank has deducted Rs. 114.5 from my account under the name- Program management fee. What is this fee about? What is the program the bank is offering? The bank did not notify me earlier about any such fees. It is a fraud to deduct customer's money without taking their concerns. I want this amount refund in my account.
A Program Management Fee of Rs 114.50 has been deducted from my account on 28 March 2016. I called customer service, they informed me, its a preferred customer fee as this is an Classic account.
When the account was opened in Classic portfolio, it was informed that minimum amount of balance has to be maintained in saving to avail the facilities and no additional charges will be there. How can bank change the policy just like day over night and null its own commitments. The accounts are in classic portfolio as per terms and conditions opening the account, you can not do just like that without informing customer and taking consent.
I expect you will revert me asap.

HDFC bank has deducted Rs. 114.5 from my account under the name- Program management fee. What is this fee about? Why bank was deduct the amount without any confirmation form the customer. Also I don't have a Locker and no any Loans and Cards, If this amount is deducted because of dedicated Relationship Manager- I don't needed for this.
I expect you will revert me asap.

What is this programme management fee. Is this bank mad ? Even we dont have much money . We dont have jobs . A little saved money we have in bank, they are leviying fees on them . What a common man do who opens an account in your bank for better interest. Indians are not fool . Every outsider companies comes and made us feel cheated . What the hell is going on in this country . Give me my money back even i do not need such a small amount but it is my money . No bank has the right to take it away without my permission .

HDFC bank has deducted Rs- 114.50 from my saving account as "PROGRAMME MANAGEMENT FEE" on 28th March 2016. It is really surprising and ridiculous that money got debited without my knowledge and consent. I have never opted for such kind of programme then why bank has debited money from my account. HDFC bank is cheating people to make profit, bank has no rights to deduct customers money without their consent or knowledge. I want my money to be deposited back to my account.
Same here, The bank did not pre-notify about this charge.
This needs to REFUNDED ...
We need Ache Din !! Please

For any deduction Bank needs notification from RBI. HDFC has to provide notification of RBI or else it has no rights to deduct such amount. Even HDFC has no sham to to say it as "A nominal charge". in a year it will be 400 + tax. Why a customer has to bear this. If bank needs more business they have provide facility. But not on customer's cost. I have also charged by same amount for "PROGRAMMANAGEMENT FEE JAN-MAR16 230316". In a year ever any RM had call me for any purpose. Even today on 04/04/2016 I called twice RM but he had no cursty to call back. So what purpose the bank is charging. Just for profit making only...
its Maliya Recovery Fee

HDFC bank should refund the money deducted from all our accounts, Bank cannot deduct charges from users without any valid reason. If they do not return the money, we will have to close our accounts and move to other banks.

Customer id:[protected]you guys are pathetic, fraud
You fraud guys deduct my amount continually and also i have raised so many complaints on that but nothing happen its almost 22 day has been passed.
if money is not refunded back to our accounts we will close accounts with HDFC and move to another bank. There are pali ke pachas banks in india. Let the bank rot and its employees would be looking for jobs elsewhere. What service you are giving? Im not into loans. And should i be paying for a relationship manager to call and irritate me to make investments in dubao schemes? Please refund money back which you have taken without notice? Had you informed me earlier of the charges i would have closed the accounts then and there itself
