I want to close this account because i don't have that much money to keep 10000k in the account. But bank people are saying to pay the charges. And i will not pay charges as i because i didn't get informed by bank that my account has converted in the saving account.

My problem is still not get solved. As they are just telling me to maintain minimum average balance or to visit the nearest branch to close the account but what about the charges that bank person is telling to deposit. they are not talking anything about the charges as it is really disappointing i never want to open any account in the HDFC Bank.
