I have transferred around 21, 000 from Hdfc to Kvb through Imps transaction on 12/06/2016 for medical emergency. Its is debited from my account but still, It is not credited to my benificary.
Everyday, I am calling to hdfc phone banking and they were raised many complaints and promised me within one day issue will be resolved.
But, its almost five days and i didn't get any proper response from bank. I need to pay money for medical emergency and i am afraid about my money since they were taking so much time to refund money. I am not sure, what is the purpose of doing IMPS?.

1. Application for cancellation of diners cluinersb card no[protected]As issued in lieu of all miles card no-[protected]) & issuance of a fresh all miles card free of cost
2. Refund of reward points for new card without my consent
Holder-dipankar choudhury

It is for necessary information & noting by the concerned authority that a representative from hdfc cards division had called on me & appraised on the features benefiting my usages. Now, on receipt of the diners card, i approached for a merchant payment at big bazar, kolkata. But payment was denied, as it came to light that these special types of cards are not acceptable in all edc machines except that of hdfc. May i now place my serious grievances before you why this very important issue was never disclosed by the marketing representative during marketing of product?

Moreover, on receipt of last statement, it further revealed that reward point balance was utilized for issuance of the new card, which too was never highlighted by the marketing representative.

I strongly object to such kind of acts from a bank of high repute & request for urgent cancellation of the diners card, by reissuing free, an all miles visa card as was being used by me. I further request you to ensure that the new card to be totally cost/charge free. I also request you to kindly intervene to see that reward points as used is reverted for the new card, as applied for.

Please treat the matter as most urgent

I've took hdfc jumbo loan against credit card 2 years before. The amount is 70, 000. Its 36 month tenure, and monthly payment is 2320. I was paying it properly last 2 years. Last month my account balance went down and autopay did not debited the amount (23/may/2016). The bank charged me as following

Payment return fee : 450.00
Autopay returned : 2, 320.99
Autopay thank you : 2, 320.99
Late fee : 500.00
Service tax : 63.00
Jumboloan, int nbr:20, [protected]: 357.90
Jumboloan, prin nb:20, [protected]: 1, 963.09
Cess tax : 2.25

Total : 5, 657.23

Due date 23/jun/2016

2 week before an hdfc representative called for not paying the amount. He told me to pay amount as soon as possible and i said will pay on 3 days after that day. After some time i received call from them regarding same, and it repeated, i cut the subsequent call from them. The next day at 10am i start receiving calls from them, i cut the call and i received approximately 50 call from them that day. Next day about 77 calls. I've amount at my hand but i still not payed the amount, i will be paying on 23/jun/2016 only. From that day to today i've received over 750 call from hdfc bank. They are speaking in a manner that "you should pay some how today, other wise we will continue calling" in small threatening manner but not with the words, in safe language to indicate they are not threatning. When i try to tell something he just keep telling "you should pay some how today" again and again and again.
I receiving calls from following numbers only few listed.

And similar so many numbers. It ring continuously one after another with new phone number using some automated system. Now i'm handling this call using auto reject call feature on my phone. But they call my home landline line number and telling my family that i was not picking the call. Just a second after making one call they call again like nothing happened before. Today i took the call in my phone to tell don't call at home, but no one speaking to me thinking i wont take call as usual. Just after that they called my home telling i didn't picked the call. If i would answer their call i need to sit all day for them. They are doing intentionally just want to irritate us to make payment. I never knew about this kind of new generation banking going around us, before paying the amount i would like to know whats going on since i've a revised fine+return amount with due date on 23/jun/2016.

This is to complaint about mr. Krishna yadav, an employee hired by hdfc bank for managing clients with loan requests
Indulged and committed breach of data protection by sharing my contact details to a third party vendor for axis bank.
Ms. Ekta kothari from the third party loan vendor has confirmed that the contact details were shared with her by mr. Yadav.
This is to my knowledge and it also holds a higher risk now...

Hi all,

I need to focus the attention on the unnecessary harassment caused by the hdfc bank by sending unnecessary sms demanding money from my (Salary account - requested for closeure) hdfc bank account on the pretext of maintaining the minimum balance.

The case is like this that i was holding the salary account with hdfc bank and i had already left my job in last october 2015.In the month of november 2015, i had already withdraw my balance from hdfc bank and do nothing still date with those account. I had already couriered the letter with passbook to close my accounts with them.

But from the last 2 months, i am getting the sms saying that your account balance was not maintained so there is 300 inr something is penalty.
This sms is coming is each month.

I don't know why the hdfc bank people are either illiterate or don't know the govt policies, if not then they should read the following link :

http://timesofindia.Indiatimes.com/business/india-business/no-penalty-for-bank-b...⇄ Cms


I think hdfc bank is the worst bank of clerical people who does not understand the english and that why don't know about the govt. Policies.


I am planning to report this matter to ombudsman against the hdfc

Please note that the next time, if i got any sms of this kind then i will take the necessary action as the indian citizen against the hdfc bank.
Also note that i will neither pay a penny to hdfc bank.

Sir,
Today @11.24am i withdrew cash amt rs.10, 000/- from sbi atm opposite cosmos mall brookefield, kundalahalli. My cash got stuck in the atm. Somehow i pulled out rs.9900/_one rs. 100/- note got stuck and was sucked inside. Please reimburse 100/- immediately and inform me by return mail.
I further tried to withdraw another 10000/- but i received a message "unable to process" please confirm that this amount is credited back to my account..
I have attached my written complaint with all the details including atm slips for your perusal..

My credit card no.[protected]. To utter my surprise it was de activated without my knowledge, leaving me embraced for non payment of my purchases. I have received a message for payment of rs about less than rs 500/, for renewal of the card, which was paid. You as hdfc bank may treat your business departments separately, as a customer having a loan, like saving account, current account, insurance policies, car insurances, house loans, car loans, stock investments, and some other loans.

My only question is, do i have to deal with different departments for each issue, if please let me know by 24 hours. So that i can plan accordingly. I have all the documents for my complaint.

I went to the bank on[protected] at around 4.30 pm to deposit cheque which i do it every month.when i went the security guard talked to me rudely then when i told the same thing to the bank people but they just smiled and were doing their work.when i came out after depositing the cheque i told him speak with respect for which he started shouting loudly and was coming onto me.he was using very abusive and foul language.everyone were seeing but none came out and stopped him it is when other security guard stopped him he went inside.
kindly i request the branch people to take action against him for his behaviour.

security guard with the gun is the person i want to complain.
branch :himayathnagar, hyderabad.

My salary account(in HDFC bank) was created in my previous company, so once i left the company and joined somewhere else i had to open another salary account. Now my salary account in hdfc bank has been converted to savings account(without informing me or warning me) after that i called to customer care and informed that to close the account, they informed that we will take action and close the account, after that i have not checked about that.

Recently i tried to login with my customer id, i am able to login and they have charged me penalty for not maintaining minimum balance.

Please check and close my account

I have requested to block my HDFC credit card about a year ago & the card got blocked.
Now after a year, they have sent me a bill with which includes the renewal charges, along with the new card number which I have never received.

When I called them they are like you have blocked the card but not closed the card account, (If you have not closed the account, why you didn't sent me the new card, what's the logic of not providing service & charging on it) & when I asked them to close the card account they said they need to send a form to Chennai (which form they are not ready to confirm).

I do not understand if you have blocked the card, what is the relevance of keeping an account & unnecessary charging on that account.

This is simply unacceptable, & customer care people are so pathetic they don't even know which department is handing such query, they just kept on transferring the call to multiple people.

Kindly get this issue solved asap.

I am getting several calls from hdfc marketing division for personal loans etc. I have repeatedly asked them to stop calling me. Now they call me almost every day. I am registered under ndnc registry as “fully blocked category”. I still get calls from hdfc. I get call any time of the day which is very disturbing.

Subject: regarding personal loan application (Uap 3672810) which i applied to hdfc bank in april, 2016.

Sir,

My name is om prakash. I am working in it company as sr. Software engineer.
I applied for a personal loan to hdfc bank in april 2016. Hdfc bank staff collected all the required documents needed for personal loan and also done the personal and address verification later on. It was all clear and verified by hdfc bank.

Later on, they agreed to sanction a loan amount of around rs1, 90000. But they offered to merge my previous running personal loan (Loan a/c[protected] with hdfc itself to this new loan. I requested, since i have already paid 16 emis of previous loan so i am not interested to merge it. I requested to sanction a new loan separately as a fresh loan. They agreed to do that.

Since then i have been calling them regarding the updates on that but they never responded. They have ruined all my family plans and all. I was completely distressed and could not concentrate on my work for long.

I am looking forward for your kind consideration for a penalty and punishment for them.

To whomsoever it may concern

I have a few concerns regarding my credit and debit card and savings account.

1 - ecs -
I hold both a savings account as well as a credit card with your bank.
However after a few weeks o[censored]sage, i received information through sms
Ervice that an auto pay deduction towards the minimum due on credit
Card payment has been debited to my savings account in favour of the
Credit card. I was surprised as i have never authorized or instructed
The bank to conduct such an auto pay debits to my credit card or
Otherwise. However at the same time even before the due date, i had
Paid the minimum due to the credit card. Thus there were two payments,
One made voluntarily by me before due date and second on due date by
Unauthorised auto debit. That on two of such occasions, i immediately
Contacted the customer service and told them that i have not
Authorized any auto debit and thus the bank reversed the said auto
Debit payments back to my account. However despite of informing the
Bank a couple of times, in the recent months since august 2015 auto
Debits have been conducted without any instructions or authorization
From me and since i have no credits in the savings account, the said
Auto debits have resulted in dishonourments and resultantly you have
Charged me for such dishonoured payments as well as other ancillary
Fees connected thereto. Besides the credit card is also being charged
Everal fees and charges for dishonored payments despite of no auto
Debit or auto pay instructions. These fines and ancillary fees have
Totalled to a large amount which i am not liable to pay in any
Circumstances as the same is result of an error from your end and not
Mine. As a matter of fact, i am being harassed by having to ask you
Time and again for cancelling such auto pay debits and still the
Ancillary fees and fines wrongly charged to me have never been
Reversed.
You are advised to rebate these fines, fees and penalty charged to me
On my savings account as well as my credit card as the same have been
A result o[censored]nauthorzed auto pay debits which were never sanctioned by
Me.Infact such an attempt on your part calls for intentional
Interference and deficient services, the attempt made by you to
Conduct unauthorized auto pay debits is in contravention to the
Agreement and to the customer - bank relationship policy and practices.


2 - statements -
To add to the above harassment, your bank has failed to sent me the
Monthly statements of the savings account as well as the credit crd
Statements. I had opted for the digital statements and hence expect
The statements to be sent to my registered email address, however i
Receive intimation of offers and schemes from your bank but never the
Tatements of my accounts. I have complaint of this issue with your
Customer desk several times and yet i have got no response from you
Not do i have been sent the statements.In the absence of my
Tatements, i have no idea as to how and where you have imposed
Charges or fines on me. Please note i have consciously checked all
Emails in my inbox as well spam and other folders but regretfully i
Have no email with statements from you. Despite of repeated requests,
Non fulfillment of this requirement is an error and shortcoming in
Ervices at your ends.

3 - collections -
That in the second quarter of this year, as there was no statement
From your end and unauthorized auto debits made from my account and
Unnecessary charges being imposed on me, my credit card bill minimum
Due requirement stood unpaid as your bank failed to co-operate with
Me. Please note prior to this my payments to the card have been
Regular and not a single month i have been in default. Thereafter some
Person claiming to be your representative approached me to pay the
Minimum due. He assured me that he would ensure that statements of my
Account are provided to me in my email however the same never happened
But he took from me an amount of rs. 2200/- towards collection. At the
Relevant time i informed the representative that the charges imposed
On me are wrong and i am willing to settle the account provided the
Bank deduct such charges and fines imposed on me wrongly by the bank.
The said representative told me that he would seek the proposal and
Inform me. However i got no proposal after that. Next month, again i
Got no statement from you and again you made an unauthorized auto pay
Debit to my savings account and after that you issued me a legal
Notice for dishonoring an ecs payment. Again some new person came to
Me and asked me to pay rs. 4000/- towards the minimum due stating that
He will get proposal but i will have to pay this minimum due. I placed
My trust on your representatives and waited for a proposal. However in
The mean time you have been conducting unauthorized auto debits,
Charging me wrongly and adding fine, fee and interest and penalty to
Me on both account arbitrarily. These payments are not legally payable
By me and these are a result of the error and foulplay of the
Collections team of the bank. You are advised to act immediately on
This.

4. Privacy of account holder:

Your representatives approach my family and are readily providing any
Body information of my accounts and dues without any authorization
From me, this is illegal practice as per the banking regulations.
Merely for the purpose of creating pressure on the account holder, who
By the way is willing to settle but your collection agents dont seem
To willing to do the same for reasons best known to them, are using
The name of the bank and harassing and threatening me and my family
Member including the women of my house. This harassment is illegal
Practice and banned by the rbi. Moreover, in a bid to extract
Collection and fulfill some internal target, these agents are sharing
My account data and details of my transactions and such other details
With any body they meet at my doorstop without authorization from me.
Where as you claim to protect data and privacy of an account holder
From any person and this is a breach at your instance.


Your agents/advisors/managers have no respect while speaking and do
Not understand simple questions.
I have had agents visiting my residence and speaking to my
Father/mother/sister in an inappropriate language questioning my
Tatus and ability to pay or take a credit card. The tone of voice
Used and the choice of words is unacceptable especially when used for
Women which in turn is harrassment.
Please note and be advised that your agents have no authority to speak
To any one in filthy and untoward language and you are vicariously
Responsible for such harassment and verbal abuse. If these persons use
Your name and identity cards issued by your bank, it is your implied
Duty to ensure that these representatives are well mannered and stay
In bounds. They have no right or locus to question my capability of
Holding a credit card or using the same as i please. If the same
Continues, i will be constrained to lodge a police complaint against
Uch representatives as well as impleading you therein for allowing
Uch illegal practices. I will also be constrained to write to the
R. B. I. With respect to you employing people who practice against
Banking practices.

I on many instances have asked your agents who visit me for payments
To obtain and provide me with a proposal for the settlement however
None of them have ever got back to me but they always want to insist
On collection minimum due. Due to their inaction, i do not stand to
Bear the burden of their delay. As such your charges and fines have
Been adding on since last few months despite of my request to you
Representatives for settlement.

I received a call from (+[protected] dt. 11/06/2015 somewhere
Around noon from your collection team and the person i spoke too had
Terrible attitude and a horrible manner of speech. He has disrespected
Me for which i am going to take legal action. Your agent insisted on
Me giving the phone to whoever was talking in the background and when
I handed over the call to my sister, he spoke to her with complete
Disrespect and questioned that if he has no ability to pay then why
Did he use the card. Let me tell you, if i had the slightest idea of
The kind of complete disregard your bank holds fro a customer and the
Way you are quick to adopt of illegal practices against your customer
And the fact that for few thousand of collections, your agents will
Give data of the customer to any body, i would have refrained from
Obtaining your card or account. Your agent has complete disregard for
Manners, language and decency and i believe the same is as you have
Authorized them to talk as they like.

Infact, the illegal practice followed by your bank is very strategic;
You do not issue me statements, thus i cannot verify your charges,
Then you make unauthorized auto debit and then issue notices; then you
Appoint indecent and antisocial element like person to make
Collections who fake amounts due where as you via your customer desk
Inform me that the total due is much lesser than as claimed by the
Agent. Your agent claims i have a total due of rs. 69, 800/- whereas
Your own customer desk informed me that the amount due is rs. 66, 000/-
You are requested to explain to me what is this difference suggests?
It seems you let agents make up imaginary amounts to extort from
Customers.

In addition to my above said grievances, which i seek immediate
Response and redressal, i further inform you officially that i am
Willing to proceed for a settlement with your bank as i do not wish to
Hold this account or credit card any longer and thus you are requested
To provide me with a proposal for the same via email or official
Communication through a representative. You are also requested to send
Me statements of both my savings account and my credit card at the
Earliest to help ascertain the charges levied by you.

Please note that i will not communicate with any one who claims to be
Third party collection agent or any person who does not have the basic
Decency to talk and communicate.

That despite my efforts, your customer helpline could not provide me
With email addresses of the other departments who may be concerned
With my grievances enlisted above, thus you are requested to kindly do
The needful in communicating my grievances to any additional
Departmemt or concerned persons who may be well equipped to address my
Grievance.


Post this email, i get a rather hilarious response from the customerservices. [protected]@hdfcbank.com asking me to just simply make a payment towards my credit card and nothing else, no empathy, no call or no explanation at all which is pathetic customer service.

I have a saving account in HDFC bank. Due to some personal reasons i was unable to maintain the minimum balance. As a result they deducted almost Rs 700 per month from my account. Instead of giving the interest on whatever is the balance on my account, the bank is taking public money. This is very unreasonable when many people cannot afford to keep a minimum balance of 10000 every month.

Hello Team,

I have applied for personal loan almost a month back. Initially, the verification process was delayed due to leniency from Sunita from HDFC Sales Team. After never-ending delay, the loan was approved on Monday - 30th May 2016 12:35 PM. However, so far I did not hear anything about Interest rate or file charges.

When I called customer service, the lady called Priyanka was narrating stories than referring to my concerns when I said I will decline suddenly she was active and said, I am processing the cancellation of Loan. I think she is only trained to cancel loan request and not to answer/resolve customer queries. Finally, a supervisor gave me Navneet Rai's phone number ( [protected]) and when called, Navneet was travelling and asked to call back after 30 mnts and later he did not pick calls.

When I have written an email to customer care, they asked me to provide end number of details which could have been tracked using the loan account number and further, I have written email from my HDFC net banking Id.

Today, I have received a message that complain has been registered and the bank will get back to me in 5 working days. The complain number shared is DELR[protected].

My concern is if the loan is approved why there is no call for interest rate discussion and why I am not getting the loan amount in my account. I was not at all informed about the delay.

Thanks & Regards,
Timsy Jethy
