HDFC Bank Complaints & Reviews

I'm using a HDFC Credit Card from long time back. Recently, they are allowing few selected merchants (like: Google) to make the transaction through the credit/debit card without any authentication of the account holder.

Also, While people are making the online transaction through debit or credit card or net-banking, the merchants website saving all the details of the card information including card number, date of expiry, cvv number and even pin number also.

After informing to HDFC bank, they are saying that in case of international transaction no further authentication is require. So, If the payment gateway is international then they will not authenticate the same in any point.

My concern is that, I have not used the credit card in google for last 4-5 month. But, the HDFC make the payment to Google around Rs. 33, 800.00 against my card.

So, I have blocked the card and requested them to issue a new card which is not registered anywhere in the google.

Still, they are charging the same without making any transaction for this account.

Please look into the matter as this is the 2nd time I have felled that the HDFC is frauding with me.

If google will save the details card information then others are also doing the same. If, it become true, then the digital India may not success or we never recommend to make the transaction online as it is not completely safe for Indian people.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi my name is syed muzzaffar salman applied for personnal loan from hdfc bank. And when i called customer service people today dated 26.04.2017 said they dont see any information or verification has not been done as if yet. Then i got a call from hdfc bank loan dept. Saying basis of your cibil your loan got rejected and what she said my cibil is 691. I informed that cannot be true because i have copy of cibil which downloaded two days ago, which shows my
Cibil is 771. So that means hdfc bank is lying. Her name is sukhwinder from loan dept. Saying let me check and call you back. I said dont call me back because you guys have waisted my time as well and will not deal with hdfc bank any more because of this lousy service or pathetic service.

This is vikas jadhav having hdfc bank saving account [protected] fc road, hdfc bank debited rs. 1618.47 & rs. 1534.15 from my saving account without any approval on 12th april 2017.

I have on tour and when i swap card on petrol pump they have declined my card payment. I have shocked when saw my hdfc bank debited my account without my confirmation or any prior intimation.

Due hdfc bank nonsense treatment i have lost my important meeting.

I have made complait to director forum of hdfc bank but yet not positive and valid response from them.

Today i got call from customer representative mr. Ashish of hdfc bank from phone no [protected] 9.35 am. He told me bank had deducted your credit card outstanding. But my outstanding is old of 9 year. And he dont know why deducted. He told me i will forward this query to my boss but yet not response from them. I asked him question that if outstanding is pending from 2010 then why you not deducted in last 7 years but he dont have any answer also my cibil scrore is down due their carelessness treatment with customers.

I have checked the same outstanding of credit card transaction was 2010 and the credit card is blocked in 2013 and they have not intimated to me from 2013 to march 2017. Deducted amount is not tallied with outstanding of 2010 as well as i have send mail and letters regarding outstanding of credit card to bank so many time but nobody replied me.

Now my complaint is how can bank deducted amount whatever they want and when they want without account holder confirmation and approval?

What are they doing in last 7 years. They have not entertained my emails.

If this type treatment done from hdfc bank to his old customer then how we can trust on banks and reserve bank of india. This is tollay fraud with me and harassment by hdfc bank

Kindly refund the same money in my account on high priority.

Regards
Vikas jadhav

There was mis-communication from Mumbai office to local office.call received from no.[protected]., Kept me waiting for 2 hrs in loan dept. not even bothered to say that it would take time I can complete your other work if any, no alternative staff was present to operate locker and staff was making fun of me when I told them that they are in private sector. Manager instead of taking action was advocating for the staff mistake.

Please send my card in my office address on urgent basis. My name is suman das ph no [protected] i want my credit card deliverey at my office address plot no 425 udhog vihar phrase 4 near mts building gurgaon pin-122015. Please send my card in my office address on urgent basis.

So this is regarding my credit card and emi... my apologies for missing on my payment or delaying it is can say. But I think other banks understand a customers situation if I can say I met with an accident and had to undergo a surgery which I had to be on complete bed rest... I explained the situation to the people who called me to follow up regarding the payment... none of them understood my situation. They kept calling me when I had to be on bed rest with medicines. This was a 100% mental torture for me! N the executive who spoke to me spoke so rude when I said I was really left with no money. I even promised I would make the payment with the fines what ever Is shown and I am not going to miss it. If i answer the call and talk is this what is the respect I get back from them? Try to go find defaulters like this and Sue them instead of sueing people who are making their payments and are picking up the calls. Ridiculous customer service and I think especially in hdfc they dont know anything called customer relationship management. They are just behind money and want money from people even if they are dieing.

I deposited 35, 000 rupees in my salary account and they have deducted 172.50 Rupees, teller didnt convey me that charges will be there for depositing the money.
Also this is my first time in the month that I am depositing cash in my account.
Also this amount is less than 50, 000 then what is the reason for deduction.
Plz look into this.
Didnt expect this thing from HDFC Bank
Also there is no reference number for the same.
Please refer below attached screenshot for that the transaction details
Expecting the response soon.

1. I have an account in HDFC Paonta Sahib, Himachal Pradesh.
2. I tried to make a purchase worth Rs.705 on 8th April, 2017 using netbanking facility linked to my account.
3. The action was abruptly aborted because of loss in connectivity and the payment was aborted.
4. I rang up the merchant and he acknowledged verbally the failure of the payment and also sent me a mail confirming the same.
5. However the bank account statement says that money was deducted for the failed transaction.
6. I have contacted the bank through mails over three times now, but no satisfactory response has followed. Even the call centres do not connect because they ask for phonebanking pin just for speaking to their representatives.
7. Such behaviour from HDFC Bank is not at all customer and user friendly. The bank should smoothen it's channel for the ease of access of it's customers.
8. Kindly refund my hard earned money back to me at the earliest and save me further inconvenience.

I have been following this from a month, now I don’t want any new card. Kindly refund my money on urgent basis as now I don’t want ant new card from HDFC Bank.

This has been very disappointing that HDFC bank do such false commitments and deduct unnecessary money from accounts.

Hi i am also facing the same problem my negative balance is 10, 000. I have given a request to close my salaried account in HDFC bank 3 years back and i am not using it also. yesterday i just checked the account statement and i was shocked to see the balance. What i have to do further please suggest, as i am not going to pay such a big amount. i joined in another organization where i opened salaried account in another bank after i left from there, they are not deducting any money as HDFC

V have paid entire emi on dec, 2016 and eventhough v have cleared the penal charges also but so far we didnt receive noc, this loan is dealing by such a worst person mr murli (Hdfc)-cont-[protected]) first of all he ll never pick call and if he picked ll say in this week u ll received, eventhough last week he gave mr vel no while we done enquiry he said instead of loan account no they sent receipt no for getting noc and same he communicated long back ago to mr murli but he is no more serious..

My debit card was swiped for a transaction at a restaurant amounting to 4000 inr. But it was not successful, and the amount got deducted. Next morning i receive a message from the restaurant stating that the money has been reversed to my account. But it doesnt get reflected in my bank account. Its been 10 days from the incident but nothing is happening. The customer care executives cant give a proper solution to the problem, every time i call they come up with some stupid responses. Really disappointed to see this state of such a popular bank. Deductions happen within a minute but when it comes to reversing this takes an indefinite amount of time.
