[Resolved]  HDFC Bank Life Insurance — INDUCED INTO HDFC SAVINGS ASSURANCE PLAN BY PROVIDING INCORRECT DATA

Address:Mumbai City, Maharashtra

HDFC BANK staff Seema tomar of chembur mumbai branch Advised me to take HDFC savings assurance plan assuring me that on maturity it will provide me a return of around 11 percent per annum. Based on her advise I took this policy about 5 years back, uptill now I have paid RS 10 lacs (RS 2 lacs per annum ) .maturity period 10 yrs. Recently I inquired about the maturity value of those who had taken the policy earlier. I was shocked to hear that the maturity value is only around 5 percent per annum. In december 2013 also an employee of HDFC vashi new mumbai sector 17 branch was trying to sell the same product to me at a time when a normal FIxed deposit was fetching around 9% interest per annum. I don't understand why HDFC life is bend upon fooling the customers by providing false promises.
