Address: Gurgaon, Haryana

I, Shweta Dubey, holding one Saving Account with HDFC Bank [protected] DLF Phase 1, Gurgaon Location, Without any Information and any permission Bank Executives deducted Amount of Rs. 17306/- from my Saving Account, When I called to Customer Care after 6 – 7 Executive they told me simply that amount is deducted by Loan Department and I have to connect with them.

This is not acceptable if any of your customer holding account with you and trust that their money is safe with you (HDFC Bank) and Bank Person without any information and permission and any message communication they deducted the amount.

This Transaction will treat as a fraud and cheat, when Bank will treat both of the department (Bank and Loan) separately in this case before any transaction loan department has to inform customer and do some paper work. Because regarding my Education Loan I already handed over my PDC (Post Dated Check of SBI Bank to the Bank Executive).

I already informed to the bank Executives and Recovery Agency to provide me a Scan Copy of cheque and drop me a mail and let me know the bank where I can drop cheque amount locally, I recently relocated from Gurgaon Location to Banglore Location.

Loan department is not authorized to deduct the amount from any bank if loan amount is unpaid and if they already have PDC check,

If you check my loan history than you will come to know, earlier also I paid PDC check from CITI Bank, when that account closed I informed to the bank and hand over them my SBI Bank Cheque Leaves accordingly, after so much follow up with some Gaurav and Neha they got succeed to get the back the cheques leaves from Neha as per another executive Jyothi conveyed from Delhi, till that time I am used to get calls for cheque bounced from New- New Exectives, If you see u will come to know many time they drop check to closed bank and later they rectify their mistake

Please check the matter in detail and do respond and revert the money within EOD.

Regards,
Shweta Dubey

    Fraud by Bank Employe

    Dear Sir,

    I am Vinod kapoor. I have taken a used car loan from the HDFC Bank. Every month a agent come from bank and take the EMI amount of rs 5239/- . I got a call from bank on 29/11/2010 that agent is coming to your home to collect the EMI. I said ok send him my wife will give the money after few hours one person went to my home and said I m agent from HDFC bank and come here to collect the EMI of rs 5239/ and he told my wife the same Loan A/C number which I have. He took the emi amount and gave the receipt. After 10 mins one more guy came and said I m agent from hdfc bank and come here for EMI amount then my wife said to him one of your collogue taken the emi then he said can you show me the receipt, when he saw that he said he was fraud, you get cheated.

    After that I called up the HDFC bank that how can my personal information leak out to any person that anyone come and take the money. And when I said them please look to this matter they are saying we can do anything you need to pay again rs 5239/ for the month of November 2010.

    But why should I pay extra as its fault from bank. Please help me in this matter as I cant handle this more.

    Pls take action against Bank. Otherwise i will load complaint against bank in "RBI Complaint Forum"
    And I have major financial problem, I can't make payment. My family is in problem.

    Thanking you.

    Vinod kapoor

    This is a lapse on the part of HDFC bank. An employer is responsible for the deeds of it's employee. How come HDFC bank can employ somebody who is a cheater.

      Thanks for your help. But i could not follow it fully because my card is not displayed after i submitted the customer id.Displayed only "5326XXXXXXXX6085" this card. It says "Hotlisted/Inactive cards are not listed above." So do you mean to say my card is inactive? Looks like it got disabled. Please help me to make it active.

        Hi,

        I have been getting obscene calls from the people at HDFC bank regarding my loan amount which is due for quite sometime. I dont have the money to pay off this loan and they are forcing me to pay the full amount.

        I have been getting calls from Mohit[protected] and he is also harassing employees at my office.

        I would request you to take immediate action.

        Thanks

              Hi,

              I have applied for a home loan with HDFC Bank as a NRI. I had told the processing time will be 15-20 days. I am facing the following problems

              1. The sales guys are not responsive, not accountable for what promises they make.
              2. The HDFC person when interacts via email does mention any contact number. I don't know how to contact them.
              3. The information is given in piecemeal basis, this has caused delay in loan processing by more than 1 month.
              4. The attitude of the sales guys is very bad. As a customer I have to call them and sometimes they just cut the phone because they don't know the exact details of the loan processing.

              At the end I am being humiliated by the HDFC sales guy.

              Regards
              Ameya

                I got an sms from hdfc bank that my credit card has been used at Dummy Mer Retail in bangalore for Re.1. I have made no such transactions. I checked up with HDFC Credit Card helpline to which they said someone had done a transaction. Here I fail to understand the possibility of such transaction when I am based in Mumbai andhave the card safely in my pocket. I also rule out any possibility of online transaction I havent shared my password with anyone. So it has to be a physical transaction which cannot take place without the magnetic strip of the card. ITS Cheating from the side of HDFC Bank.

                I want this sorted out as tomorrow I may receive a message with a transaction of higher amount. Look into the same.
                Hello Krunal,

                I too have received a sms today with same details "Dummy Mer Retail" for Re.1 transaction.
                The customer care was not able to answer.

                I have blocked my card.

                Regards,
                TD
                Me also faced the same situation today, and blocked my credit card.
                while calling to customer care they are asking to block the card and get the one, and they are charging 100/- per new card.

                So it seems to be that its a cheating from HDFC bank itself. They making money like this by issuing new cards.

                    Today around 10.52 a.m. I went to HDFC ATM, near Alsa Mall, Egmore for money withdrawal purpose. I inserted Allahabad Bank Card and tried to withdraw money for Rs.10, 000/- the machine processed and the slip came out after deducting Rs.10, 000/- but money did not come out. I informed the security and in turn he asked me give a written complaint in this matter, to HDFC Bank.

                    For your reference, I attach herewith a copy of HDFC Bank ATM withdrawal slip dated August 4, 2011.

                    I request you to please verify the accounts and inform me to get the amount back.

                    Thanking you,

                    NATARAJAN G.

                      Dear Sir/Madam

                      I would like to tell you that no bank will provide loan sanction letter before getting loan; if you are mentioning about sanction letter after getting loan, then, I am not eligible for the amount I require to purchase, due to this personal loan (EMIs)...
                      When I spoke to your official and told about this, I was asked for Agreement photocopy. As per the discussion, I went ahead and made agreement. If you mean it doesn't have any value, then you mean Bond paper doesn't have any value in India?
                      Apart from this I need not have to fool you people by telling I am buying house, as its just 3 more months to complete 12months of EMIs.
                      I was not allowed to talk to HDFC manager (Indiranagar branch, Bangalore) in person regarding my problem.
                      I have been requesting everyone in HDFC from almost a month now and I realise now that I have been fooled and made to commit a big time mistake of making agreement of 2lakhs rupees by wrong instruction, which I may have to loose.
                      Its frustrating that though I am ready to pay 3 EMIs together and then loan amount+penalty, I am not allowed to do so. I am not eligible for housing loan due to this. Every rule has an exception, But I wonder you don't have any exception!!
                      In future I would not make any mistake of taking any loan from HDFC for the least understanding from the team...
                      I would even suggest my friends and consumer forum not to commit this mistake and share about the problems, inconvenience, that I had to face...

                      TAKE HOME MESSAGE: "U CAN MEET CM OF YOUR STATE, BUT CAN NEVER MEET HDFC BRANCH MANAGER IN PERSON"

                      THANKS A LOT FOR MAKING ME WAIT FOR ONE WHOLE WEEK FOR THIS REPLY...

                      Dear Swati,

                      As per the discussion with your official Swaroop Hegde, I had sent a scanned copy of home agreement on June 26th. He has forwarded it to his higher officials, but till now they have not reverted back to him. So I have not received any response. I need to close the loan and apply for the home loan. I have only 2months of time to get it registered from the date of agreement. Also I have spent 2 lakhs for agreement, so as to provide you for proof, which I might have to loose in case of delay. Please help me to close the loan as soon as possible. I obtained the personal loan from HDFC within 2days and I look forward for the same kind of service from your team. I request you to kindly look into this issue and help me out at the earliest.

                      Thanks
                      Deepashri K M

                          whole i was in kolkata, i got an sms from hdfc bank that my credit card has been used at Dummy Mer Retail in bangalore. I contacted the helpline immediately and the hdfc official assured me that the amount transacted would be reversed and result of their investigation will be apprised by them to me within 48 hours. But after 72 hours when i contacted them, they refused to make any enquiry unless I fill up a Form downloaded from their website. the also refused to reverse the money tranacted illegally. The behavior of HDFC Bank surprised me. I suspect, HDFC bank officials are involved in the racket of fraud. I request Reserve Bank of India to intervene and take stern action against the bank for their act.

                          Hello Mahes,

                          Even I have faced same problem today and got the sms 2 times saying that card has been used at BANGALORE, DUMMY MER RETAIL, when I have called HDFC Credit card customer care they said they dont have merchant details and asked me to call after 2-3 days. But if more transactions with higher amount made I will be in trouble so asked them to block. I feel something fishy behind this incident.
                          HDFC Credit card should be held responsible as online transaction cannot be done without Master Secure/Verified by Visa and Direct transaction requires Physical Card.
                          Even I got an sms from hdfc bank that my credit card has been used at Dummy Mer Retail in bangalore for Re.1. I have made no such transactions. I checked up with HDFC Credit Card helpline to which they said someone had done a transaction. Here I fail to understand the possibility of such transaction when I am based in Mumbai andhave the card safely in my pocket. I also rule out any possibility of online transaction I havent shared my password with anyone. So it has to be a physical transaction which cannot take place without the magnetic strip of the card. ITS Cheating from the side of HDFC Bank.

                          I guess this has happened as we might have submitted our photocopy of the credit card (front side) to somebody. Even then I held HDFC responsible for the transaction as the credit card is safely in our pockets
                          Hi Folks,

                          I am surprised to find so many people getting such smses o[censored]nknown transactions viz "Dummy Mer Retail".
                          The customer care is unable to answer on the transaction. I have blocked my card, I guess had no option.
                          Anyone from Mumbai got this sms?

                          TD
                          I got the same thing today but on mu CITIBANK credit card. There must be some explanation.
                          I just got it confirmed from the Citibank Customer care. He said that when we apply for a different card credit card or for a credit transfer from another card, the other bank verifies by making this transaction. I have applied for a new Manhattan credit card and gave the Citi card as proof. I am assuming that must be the reason i got the alert "Rs 1.00 was spent on your Credit Card on 13-OCT-11 at DUMMY MER RETAIL."
                          Hi do you apply for any other creadit card and its verification is tack placed on same day when you get this message. I have got reply from HDFC call center that if you apply for any other card mostly Standard Chartered Bank India then you will get this message .

                          Kindly reply as i have get the same message
                          Hi I am using HDFC CC and I faced the same issue today. Rs 1 got deducted and SMS says card was used at DUMMY MER RETAIL. I have applied for Standard Chartered Card too some time back. Upon investigation with the HDFC bank I came to know that it was a dummy transaction to validate my card for standard chartered. Money has not been deducted. Its an exercise to validate my card. Its not a security concern.

                          Its true that all executives at HDFC are not aware about this. First executive I spoke to could not explain this and blocked my card. Then to investigate more I called again and I was lucky this time to come across an executive who was aware about this and even before I told him the whole case he completed the case and gave me a logical explanation about this incident.
                          Just had the same experience! Got a message and email about a transaction of Rs.6 on my Citibank Credit Card! Checked and got confirmation from another bank where I had applied for Balance Transfer, and they had done the transaction to verify my Citi Bank Credit Card! So all's well! :)

                              HDFC STANDARD LIFE — Providend Fund Withdrawl

                              I have been with HDFC Standard Life from August 2006 to May 2007. I have a PF contribution from my side was RS 960 P.M.. The same amount has been contributed by the Company also.
                              This amount was a Part of my Cost To Company.
                              I have submitted a withdrawl of in the month of January 2008, till date the amount has not been credited in my Bank Account.
                              In fact when I went to submit the form, I come to know that they have their own charity for PF.
                              They are not ready to listen and whenever I visit their Kolkata office, they harass me on the same.
                              I think this is in their policy that they love to harrase their previous employees because I was also working with HDFC Standard Life from Jan2007 to Aug2008 and I am also facing the same problem...
                              They only talk about their strong HR policies, Values and ethics and I think they are worst at this but as I am also experiencing the same thing like you buddy... I think we need to take some hard steps as I am going to take e.g.
                              1. You can complaint against them in PF commissioner's office
                              2. Lodge a complaint in Consumer forum because they have a provision for this.
                              3. Lodge a complaint against them in Civil court under labor law and demand PF as well as compensation for mental harrasment as I am also going to do the same and i think they deserve to be slapped by the court... don't loose a faith in Judiciary...
                              and don't stop fighting for the things you deserve as well as they deserve... don't be like a honey because they don't understand the sweet language...
                              Dear Sir/Madam

                              My self Abid Hussain Khazi. I worked with HDFC Standard Life Since 09.07.2009 and i resign to company 12.04.2010 my Emp No.50730 & PF NO.MH/Esst CODE NO.211273/A/c No. 35232but still i not received my PF i applied already 28.01.2011. and also all documents send HDFC Standard Life Departments & soft copy also send to PF Queries <[protected]@hdfclife.com>, pfqueries <[protected]@hdfcinsurance.com> they are replied like this : Dear Mr. Abid Hussain,

                              We have recd your PF withdrawal request on dt. 29.03.2011

                              We are in a process of transferring the entire PF Trust to Regional
                              Provident Fund Commissioner's Office - Bandra. During this transition
                              period all PF withdrawal and transfer settlements will be on hold. Once all
                              the funds and files gets transferred to Regional Provident Fund
                              Commissioner, the entire Provident Fund settlement i.e. withdrawal and
                              transfer will be handled by them.

                              Regarding the time, we will not able to commit you since it would be
                              settled by Regional Provident Fund Commissioner.


                              The PF Trust handover process is still going on with the PF commissioner.
                              Till then we cannot submit any claims since clerk and group no. is not
                              allotted to us. We are requesting the PF commissioner to speed up the
                              transfer process.


                              Thanks & Regards,

                                        This is in reference to the transaction made into my account without intimating me by hdfc bank.

                                        An amount of Rs 827.25 has been debited on 19th July 2011 from my HDFC salary account [protected], mentioning about 'DEPOSITORY CHARGES JUN[protected]' on demat account. I have used this account only once in the last year this was to be a life time free demat account.

                                        When the account was given to me it was told that it would be absolutely free.

                                        This is clear exploitation of customers.

                                        I called the Cusotmer Care they want me to personally go to the malad HDFC BANK and talk for it, they dint even register a complain for this with them.

                                        Please help and give me an update on [protected]@gmail.com
