I am Rajesh My personal loan account number is 24678498. I have taken my PL on May 2013of Rs.3lacs, 6EMI Paid.

Now I want to foreclose my personal loan and agreed to repay all the amount of personal loan charges .At the time, when i had applied for loan, hdfc guy told me that I can close the loan after 6 months, but when I called phone banking in order to know the procedure they told me that I can't close it before 12 months.

Kindly help me for the same, as I have applied for home loan to HDFC for 19lacs but they asked me to close personal loan first, as they need forecloser certificate of personal loan.Construction of my home is alredy started, now I'll be in trouble, if I'll not allow to pre-close the personal loan.

Please advise the procedure & to whom should I contact for the fast process.

My savings account funds of RSI. 17587 has been put on hold by HDFC bank without giving any prior intimation. This is my hard earned money and we keep the money in bank for safety and not for bankers to put hold on funds as per their convenience. This is an outright brash attitude and treatment. I also fear potential misuse of my funds. I want the hold removed and my cash freed....

I have not received yet the paid up policy refund amount as the said policy No 12161644 in the name of Mrutunjaya Basavaraj Gajare. Commenced on 11/09/2008.Since the the said policy has been discontinued, There is no response for my previous complaint and also for my application letter dated - 25/08/2013. Ihave submitted the copy of application to you in my previous complaint. I request you to return the amount immediately.

Hi, I went to HDFC Bank Credit card H.O today which is located at Richmond road, Bangalore to speak about my card overdues. After looking at my payment history I decided to settle my card. Bank people gave me one amount for settlement but I convince them that I dont have that much of amount to pay and I told them some amount (Suresh who was the Bank Executive and he said that bank will not agree for such amount and then called his Senior named Tilak (I think he was Goonda before joining HDFC) then he said we have to settle that amount, and I said due to unexpected finacial condition it was not possible for me to pay that much of amount. Then Tilak HDFC Goonda started shouting at me and my brother. You know how he was behaving like a Gonda, who don't have any respect for customer. My brother asked him why is he shouting and then again shouted and told us do whatever you can he will behave like that only and he was about to fight with my brother. You know this all happen in small torture room, which was really pathetic. With this experience, I will never do transaction with HDFC and will also share this issue with my family and friends. Can any one look at this and let me know what best can be done with this issue. In the meanwhile I have sent this message to the Bank legal department as well.

I ANIL KUMAR .K, POLICY NO[protected] . Now due to my personal money problems I want to close this policy so i approached palakkad branch, their behaviour is so rude & now they told me that I have get only a small amt of what i had paid because the market price is down & even the surrendering charges i had to pay but these were not the words at the time of commencement of policy .The company representative an agent and even the branch manager assured me a good maturity amt whenever i withdrew & they also didnot tell me that my policy is based on market iam totally unaware of it, this is really UNJUSTICEABLE, please dont play tricks with the human nature for selling your mere policies.NOW AT THIS POINT OF TIME WHEN I NEED THE MONEY MOST I WANT MY MONEY BACK ATLEAST THE AMT WHAT I PAID AS PREMIUMS, OTHERWISE I HAD TO KNOCK THE DOOR OF CONSUMER COURT BECAUSE YOU HAVE LEFT NO OTHER OPTION FOR ME.HOPE YOU WILL CONTACT ME AT THE EARLIEST MY CONTACT NUMBER IS -[protected]. YOU SHOULD MAINTAIN THE GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CUSTOMER LIFE LONG THEN ONLY HE CAN BUY POLICIES FROM YOU & EVEN TELL HIS WELLWISHERS ALSO ., IF HE/SHE HAD A BENEFIT FROM YOUR POLICY THEY WILL SURELY CHOOSE YOU FOR THEIR NEXT POLICY BUT UNFORTUNATELY & PRATICALLY SAYING THIS IS NOT THE SCENARIO YOU ARE DOING IT NICELY ONLY IN SALES PROMOTONS MEETINGS & IN VISUAL MEDIA, NOBODY WILL BUY YOUR POLICY MERELY WATCHING AN ADVERTISEMENT IN T.V."DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF COMMON MAN"

Dear Sir, Summary: Please note the following facts below, which point towards a possible Ponzi Scheme being run on the HDFC Bank/Life Policy holders. At the onset I took the incidents as cited below on their face value as genuine but on thorough investigation and after speaking to IRDA(Ms Nisha @ 155255) and HDFC PGRO(Mr Roland @[protected], it seems that this a very serious matter where in: a). The Private information about HDFC Policy holders is being leaked/accessed(this is information about Policy Numbers and Phone Numbers) b). Policy Holder has been misinformed that the said value of investment in HDFC has depreciated considerably. c). That HDFC has unethically invested policy money in Market, d). That Third party product should be bought by investor to break even on the Investment. Policy Information: Policy Number:[protected] Policy Holder: Mr Anil Kumar Saxena Policy Type: HDFC Life Personal Pension Plan- Regular Premium Policy Bought on:[protected] Policy Premium: Rs 10, 000 Per Annum(Aprox) Paid so far: Rs 1, 10, 100(Approx) INCIDENT: The stated facts are as per their chronological sequence 1). I, Anil Kumar Saxena, holder of policy above, received a phone call on[protected] on my Landline Number, from a person mentioning, he was speaking from some Government Insruance Monitoring Body. He mentioned my Policy Number and asked me following questions to which my answers are also mentioned è Q: Are you receiving Account Statement for the said policy from HDFC? A: No I have not received this for last 10 years è Q: Were you informed that HDFC Bank is using your money to invest in Share Market? A: No, and although as per my knowledge Pension Plan money should be invested in Share Market. To this the Call Center Person said that they are going to lodge a complaint with HDFC Bank for mishandling my fund and that the HDFC Bank will resolve my complaint and refund my money with interest. He gave me complaint ID:[protected]. He took my Mobile Number as alternate contact number. 2). I received a Phone Call on[protected] from Ms Soni Sharma, who said she was Manager with HDFC Bank in New Delhi. This call came from [protected]. She said the following things: è I am sorry that your agent did not inform you that this money will be linked to Share market due to which my return on investment will depend on Share Market. è I am sorry to inform you that you Fund Value today is Rs. 71, 880, although you have paid Rs 1, 10, 000 to HDFC so far. è If I had opted for my Investment to be linked with Govt Securities my Fund Value would have been Rs 1, 46, 980 plus a bonus of Rs 16, 000= Rs 1, 62, 980 è To this I was very displeased, but she informed that if I can invest with some Government Security Investments they will route my money to these Govt Funds in back date and give me ROI in back date and I will get Rs 1, 62, 980 back. Finding it fishy I asked her to get me in touch with some one Senior. 3). I then received a phone call from someone claiming to be CEO, HDFC Life, saying his name was Ved Prakash Arora. this call came from [protected]. This person informed me the following: è that my funds were infact linked to share market and today their value was Rs 71, 880 although i had paid HDFC Rs 1, 10, 000 in last 10 years. è that if I had opted for Govt Securities linking, my Fund Value would have been Rs 1, 46, 980 + Bonus of Rs 16, 000 = Rs 1, 62, 980. è that as I have been misinformed by Agent in 2003, he would help me someway to keep the HDFC reputation intact, è that he would send his agent to my place and that I should buy a Birla Sun Life Plan @ payment of Rs 25000Per Annum from him. è that this plan will help him route my investment with HDFC to Govt Securities. è that as soon as I pay the first premium to Birla Sunlife, he will cancel my Birla Sun Life Policy and send me a cheque of Rs 1, 62, 980. 3). The Birla Sunlife person came to my house in few hours and took from me a cheque of SBI, Yamuna Nagar Cheque No. 424705, dt 25.11.2013 for Rs25, 000/-Only and alongwith my signatures on Birla Sun Life “Vision Life” Insurance Form No. 49126183 with documents such as PAN card PhotoCopy, Driving license PhotoCopy, Passbook's Photo Copy and Two snaps. 4). In few hours again I received a call from Mr Ved Prakash Arora telling me following: that he has received my insurance form and, that I should note my Birla Policy Cancellation number, BZ196XX449, as he got my policy cancelled. 5). I in some time also got a phone call from Ms Saloni Sharma saying: That my original complaint with Govt Insurance Agency has been closed vide Approval Number: 0049AP31. that they have processed a Cheque Number 004662, Axis Bank for Rs 1, 62, 980 in my name. that I will receive this cheque in February 2014. I hereby bring to your notice the above facts. There seems to be a fraud running here and the private information of the HDFC investors is being accessed and used for such frauds.

I am extremely unhappy with the HDFC bank cr. card and collection department, Bank should be band in India, This is to the reference of the card i was using, card was issued to me in Aug'12. Dispute started in the month of Sep'13 where only partial payment was made towards minimum outstanding of cr. card. My saving a/c was blocked and after 15 days total amt was debited towards cr. card. Even after continuous call to cr card department and collection team there was no call made to inform the same. Now i am informed by the bank that i will not be able to use my card once the payment it done. HDFC is one of the worst bank to deal with and employees of HDFC has forgotten that any bank runs with customers money.

Hi I am Surjodoy Ghosh HDFC Bank Account Holder since 2001. In fact it seems from the behaviour of HDFC Bank in the recent past that opening this account with them has been one of my life's biggest mistakes. My friends who had gone with SBI and ICICI Banks are very happy and they never had to face the kind of problems I had to with HDFC. The services were much better till about[protected] but since then there has been something seriously wrong with them. I have transacted on several occasions with HDFC in terms of having their credit card, I had 3 to 4 loans going on with them which I paid off... every single bit of the money owed in the last 13 years. Now all of a sudden they put about 5, 400 on hold and I had no information (surprising since they have my number, address and email too). When I called to find out, I was told that they had several late fees pending on my last loan account which I had paid off in 2010. I asked why wasn't I consulted with reasonable efforts to recover any outstanding, I was told they did try but could not get to me. I later found out that all this while these guys were using obsolete information from the beginning of the loan from 2007. Since then I have changed addresses and cities so of course my numbers have changed as well. Now they can access my bank account which is the current and active relationship to hold my money but they somehow didn't bother to contact me on the information stored against the active account. This is alarming for all o[censored]s when Banks start to behave such irresponsibly and with such little value for customers. It seems they think that you can do anything with a poor man's account basis some legal norms. They fail to understand their social responsibilities towards the customers they work with. This is pure extortion. I seriously advise every reader that don't go for HDFC Bank for anything or else just in case something goes wrong like you running into some temporary financial trouble, they will take no time to turn into an extortionist. My customer id is 1764865 and I am closing all relationships going forward and moving my salary account to ICICI who have a more human behaviour.

Please look into the matter on urgent basis, because i have to apply for the widow pension as well. For that i have to forward some Docs to the concerned department of HDFC Bank ltd.( about which i am already discussing with you in the above matter.) for verification and attestation and they have to forward these docs to the Mumbai PF office for further processing. You can also understand that when they are not looking into my PF matter seriously how can they tackle my widow pension matter seriously. Only after resolving the previous matter i can be able to put the next case to them. I need your full co-operation in resolving this matter. I shall be very thankful to you.

My husband had used my details to use a credit card in 2005 and i remember him paying the dues each month, till we split up n i quit the job in 2005. After which i had huge health issues and have developed ANA positive and am under treatment for the rest of my life (as there is no cure). I was unaware of this issue and last week i received a call on our Call center asking for me (very unethical) and when i called back wondering who it is (sincerely clueless) this lady Sapna tells me that i have to pay Rs.1.5 lacs the very next day as i went missing for 8 years (how ridiculous is this)? I went blank and asked her for statement, she sent it the next day. As i am unable to walk, i asked the exe to leave it at our security desk. She called continuously on our office desk number and demanded that i pay the very next day. I told her my plight and informed her that it is impossible for me to pool in so much money, she was a little polite n told me to pay Rs.42, 000/- immediately and close the account. I told her that i am financially very low bcoz of my huge medical bills and informd her that i would do my best, she imposed a date 20 Nov 2013. I told her that i cannot commit, although i never used tis card n know it must be my husband, i agreed bcoz my personal issue is not of the bank. But i never told her i will not pay, she calls me up yesterday and tells me i will see to it that u lose your job, i will make sure that you have a horrible time... i was taken aback by the unprofessional outburst. Where were you all these 8 years without a reminder ? Y should i be treated like crap by some agent who sounds like a hooligan ? Had i denied then i understand, but when i am doing my best to pay up why am i being treated like this ? I want a call back from a senior personnel who can sort this out with me professionally. Awaiting your call v v urgent.

Dear Sir/Madam, This is S.Rishi Varma am staying in Chennai City. Now I have taken a credit card nearly 4 or 5 years back, so after using the credit card for a year I have lost it .My credit card no-[protected].Now I am working in a company in Chennai and my monthly salary is only rs-8, 500 per month. I am having a salary account in HDFC bank itself, but it is been blocked by the credit card department. So I am taking my salary by Cheque. Now from the credit card department they said that I have the balance of 22, 925. Out of which I have paid rs-4, 500. So the balance amount is of rs-18, 425.Now the credit card department asking me to pay rs-10, 000 with a discount, but they are asking me to pay in 2 or 3 installments which is not able for me. As my salary is rs-8, 500 so I will be able to pay only rs-1, 000 per month in installments. So please do the needful and please reply it’s a humble request.

Hi, this is Neha Jain. I am getting regular calls from one number i.e. [protected] for Credit card of HDFC Bank. Whereas I told them that I dont want any, still I am getting calls on daily basis. I have even call records also with me in my phone. I am just pissed off with this and moreover when I asked that girl why you people are calling me again and again, aren't you educated, then she replied "Aap badtamiji se kyu baat kar rahi hai?" They people are calling and wasting my time and moreover talking like this. I just want to get rid of these calls.

I had a credit card from HDFC Bank, Unfortunately i stopped payments towards the dues & planned to go for settlement through the court.
But HDFC Bank Richmond Road Branch Officer use to call & threaten me everytime & harrased me if i dont pay the due they will put me behind bars etc.
Yesterday a Lady from HDFC Bnak Richmond Road Branch Bangalore, Calls & harrased me as well she has used languages on me for not making the paying & she says that Its Not Your FATHERS Money, Ancestors Money etc etc Langauges has been used.

Is this the way HDFC Bank Treats for Recovery of the due.,
I have filed an FIR against her. Probably very soon the action might be taken.

Thanks... SHABBIR AHMED KHAN
