HDFC Bank Complaints & Reviews

AMB Charges Debited by HDFC Bank I was having a salary account with HDFC Bank it is a zero balance account. for long time I have not used my account for salary or any other transaction's. Since it is zero balance I kept the account like that and of course maintained balance about 8ooo + But when i check my account now, My account balance is showing "zero" and all the balance has been debited by bank with comment "AMB CESS HRG INCL ST & CESS" multiple times without any prior intimation or alert. I have never been communicated via Email or SMS for any such charges they introduced. If they can send promotional emails and SMS to their customers then why can't they send an alert about a new charges they impose; so that customer can maintain the balance before it goes below the required amount. Kindly process the refund for both these debit transactions otherwise I have to CLOSE my account with HDFC Bank forever. |

I had a fraud transaction of 3000 in my account in oct2013 and then the amount (3k)was credited back in my account in feb 2014(after much follow up).But HDFC again allowed some third party to access my account and do debit of 3k. Now i have filed a complain DELC[protected] some 20 days back for which the customer care has no final status. When i contacted on mail..i got this reply: Dear Mr. Kumar, Thank you for writing to us. This is with reference to your e-mail dated May 20, 2014 regarding transaction details. We have checked and confirmed that the purchase transaction of Rs. 3000 was debited from your account on October 15, 2013. Since the amount was not claimed by the acquiring bank/merchant, the amount was credited to your account on February 04, 2014. However, the acquiring bank/Merchant has claimed the transaction amount and the same is again debited from your account on May 07, 2014. For any clarifications, we would request you to get in touch with the merchant. Warm Regards, Amit S Gaikwad Customer Service Officer Customer Team HDFC Bank Ltd. They want me to follow up the merchant (that i dont even know) to get my money back. Guys my suggestion beware of HDFC..they have lot many third party transaction and its all on your risk.They will ask you to follow the merchant or third party if there is any mallacious transaction. Believe me or not i am a customer of hdfc for 7 years and this is the reply and support i have got. Thanks HDFC

Hi, I have a credit card account with HDFC Bank. Around 1 and half month back, when I tried to redeem points, the option said - 1 point=0.7rs. Nothing else. I redeemed it. Then it said, you can use it only in hdfcbanksuperia.com. This site doesnt work. I called up customer care. This person wasted 1 hour of my time and doesnt have answer at all. From then, I have contacted their grievance cell, and surprisingly, they are unaware of how this voucher works at all. Unacceptable. One gentleman from the bank called me. He is clueless of how this voucher can be used. He asked me to send all the screenshots. I took the pain of navigating through their redemption website, taking screenshots and then it ihas been and half months time of to and fro mail. Every time, they say, we will get back in 7 working days and give me same answer that my points have been given back. I know that the points have been given back. My question is HOW DOES THIS VOUCHER WORK? On top of this, I did another redemption. It went through and I get message after weeks time, that it is cancelled because of insufficient points. After few days, on 3 different days, I see different points accrued in my account. Inconvenience to me and a faulty BANKING application. I have given all the screenshot and proof of this and I know for sure after waiting for so long, HDFC executives do not know some of the aspects of their banking system. Surprisingly no one. I am fighting to get clarity and want HDFC to correct their website and give enough information so that other customers do not face this problem. Raised complaint in Banking bankingombudsman. I tried Pehredaar channel, fightback channel. Let me see who can help me.

This is in reference to the transaction made into my account without intimating me by hdfc bank. An amount of Rs 842.70 has been debited on 15th April 2014 from my salary account, mentioning about 'depository charges DEPOSITORY CHARGES MAR14 on demat account. I have never used this account. I am aghast to see this has happened second time inspite of me not using the demat servies and when the account was given to me it was told that it would be absolutely free. This is clear exploitation of customers. Please help and give me an update on tusharm.[protected]@gmail.com

Dear Sir, I had availed an auto loan from HDFC in 2012. The payments were going smoothly till January 2013 when I lost my job. Despite this massive setback, I have always paid my EMI + Penalty till now without missing a single month. It however takes me a lot of time for instance 30th or 31st as it has been in the last two months. Delayed but never missed. During this time I have interacted with several agents. One in particular has been outright abusive, used unparlimentary words, made threats, heckled and made insults. This behaviour by Mr. Kamal (HDFC agent in Chennai), has not been restricted just to me but also to the women in the household. This harassment is totally uncalled for. How I arrange to pay is my business and I don't need Mr. Kamal's ridicule and sarcastic comments. If I had missed 3 or 4 payments, perhaps you can defend to an extent but I havent missed any! I haven't made my payment yet for this month however I will make it on or before Saturday (31st May 2014). Besides this is an auto loan, you have collateral. The institution that gave me a PL are 100% polite and even empathetic to my situation. They have no collateral! I recorded the last interaction that I had with Mr. Kamal last week. I specifically purchased a phone that would allow me to do that. He slammed the phone down as soon as he heard the word "recording". I believe it is enough to go with a full suit against HDFC bank for harassment however I have banked with HDFC for over 8 years. I have availed 2 PLs and a credit card, all of which I paid back in full. I do not wish to proceed legally as of now. However I do not want to be subjected to the treatment meted out to me by Mr. Kamal or any others. Loan account: 18827510. Regards Prathap Samuel P

I have been trading for years and at times its required to call HDFC Sec Agents to place trade orders. The agents are pathetic and instead of Intra-day they punch in cash and then quote that I asked you to confirm. Whilst it is very clear that once a customer has placed Intra-day call and wants to square off they will have to use the same intra-day punch. Pathetic agents then transfer call to some loser senior (named Smruti) who places...
