We are senior citizen and I visited with my wife to HDFC Bank, Sector 23, Dwarka, N.Delhi in May 2015 for making F.D. of Rs. 2.00 Lacs from her HDFC account. Details are as mentioned in my wife letter of 6th June 2015 below :

Sub : Issue of HDFC Life Insurance Policy no. 17628820 without my knowledge
Dear Sir,
In the month of May 2015, I visited your branch and wanted to make a fixed deposit of Rs. 2.00 Lacs. On your suggestion and proposal for investing Rs. 50, 000.00 out of Rs. 2.00 Lacs for better returns in coming years by investing in some balance fund of equity market, we agreed for the same.
However, we were never informed by HDFC Bank that this investment of Rs. 50, 000.00 shall be through HDFC Life. When we received the courier on[protected] having HDFC Life insurance policy no. 17628820 in my name, I was surprised and shocked as we never applied for the same. In fact, we find that my signature on your prescribed form were wrongly used as a HDFC Life insurance and I take this matter very seriously and this is a some sort of cheating with your customer.
On the contrary, Fixed Deposit Certificate of Rs. 1, 50, 000.00 has not been issued by HDFC Bank in the last 15-20 days in spite of several reminders.
In the context of above, I return my this HDFC Life insurance policy and request you to please cancel this policy with immediate effect. You are also requested to refund my total amount of Rs. 2.00 Lacs immediately as we no longer interested to go for even fixed deposit with your bank due to wrongful action and misinformation about my investment.
Thanking you,
Yours Faithfully

We handed over this letter to the branch and got acknowledged by the bank.
We were advised to visit HDFC Life, Sector 5, Dwarka, New Delhi for cancellation.
We visited HDFC Life, Sector 5 office on[protected] and returned the policy. Acknowledgement was issued and we were assured of full refund of Rs. 50, 000.00 within a week time.
Today, on 18th June 2015, my wife got SMS that Rs. 48, 616/- has been credited to her account. It means, Rs. 1384/- was deducted.
This is fraud by both HDFC Bank and HDFC Life with us second time in a month. First issuing HDFC Life policy without our consent and then deducting Rs. 1384/- also.
Two officials of HDFC Bank visited my residence at around 8.00 PM on[protected] requesting us again and again not to forward this issue to IRDA.
We demand total refund of Rs. 50, 000/- immidiately as well as interest of one month on Rs. 50, 000/-
