HDFC Bank Complaints & Reviews

Sir,
I am having my salary account [protected] with HDFC Bank Gurgaon DLF city branch but when i went to HDFC Bank Meerut(Western Kutchery Road Branch) to withdraw amount of Rupees one thousand without having cheque book then the concerned person asked me for valid Photo ID Proof and i showed them my Photo ID of Ministry of Communication and information Technology,he denied to take it as valid ID proof and then i went to Mr. Vishwas Gupta(Branch Manager HDFC meerut Western Kutchery road branch) redarding the same issue then he replied that you can not withdraw money from here even if you are carrying valid ID proof.He told me that if gurgaon branch send them mail regarding withdrawl of money then and only then i can withdraw money.But in HDFC bank website it is clearly mentioned that Photo ID issued by Central goverment are Valid ID proof.Secondly if there is a policy or guidline or Norms of HDFC bank that must be considered as solution to my problem then Kindly send it to me.

Respected Sir/mam
My name is Agnel dsouza handling a Two Wheeler loan from HDFC BANK Because of my financial crisis i was not able to make the payment so a collection department called me on my mother cell phone which was register on national DNC they called up and starting harassing my mom regarding the payment i had a word with piyush from kanjurmarg branch and he said that i need to surrender my vehicle if i don’t have power to...

I had requested for a personal loan to HDFC customer care. I also received a call from them stating that I allready had an approval of loan amount of Rs.240,000/-. Imran Farooqui was the representative who co-ordinated with me. When I had asked him for a loan amount of Rs. 100,000/- he said atleast you take a loan amount of Rs.150,000/-, then I will be able to give you 1.5% of waiver in intrest rate i.e. from 18% to 16.5%, and after an argument regarding insurance he also promised me for the waiver of insurance. So I agreed to the amount. All this conversation we had on 17th September 2010, and he sent a person to collect my documents on very next day. I called him and asked him whether I still have an offer of 240,000, can I opt for it. He said Yes I can opt for it. then he had applied for the same. and assured me that the amount will get disbursed on thursday i.e. on 23rd September 2010. When I didn't received the amount on Thursday, I called him and asked him for the status of my loan, he said it is still in process. On 25th he called me and confirmed me with the status that My loan amount has been approved by the credit managers and only the verification part is remaining which will be done by Monday i.e. 27th September 2010 and my amount will be disbursed again by thursday 30th September 2010. Today on 28the September I received a call from Mr. Parag Mapankar, He informed me that My loan has been approved for 195,000 instead of 240,000 & for 36 months instead of 60 months with no insurance waiver. When I asked them Why was it done, these people did not have any appropriate answer. Since 17th September 2010 I am asking Mr. Imran that want to talk to his manager Mr. Vivek Gaurav, but it seems that this person is so busy that he is not getting time to speak to his customer or it seems he is not bothered about his customers. The bottom line is I have been cheated & misguided with the false assurance from a reputed organisation like HDFC and nobody amongst the management team is bothered to speak to me atleast or help me out and HDFC has hired such kind of employees in their organisation. I am really very sorry to say about HDFC. I did have a respect for HDFC bank, but because of these people I have lost all the trust with the bank. I have an corporate salary account with HDFC since March 2006 which was opened by tracmail when I had joined. Even today also I am there with the company working as an Executive - Human Resources and We had salary accounts with the bank. I am going to request my company not to have such kind of fraud bankers. I would request you to take strict action aganst the bank and do the justice to me and to the people those who fall prey to this kind of fraud.

Sub- (a) settlement (surrendering) of my credit card

This is to bring to your notice that I have been constantly asking your executives
(last 04 months) about the procedure regarding the settlement of my credit card(no.[protected]).The card is on my sisters name Ms. Samritee Gupta Singhla,she is no longer using the card and is currently out of India.
Every time I speak to the HDFC executives I am asked to do the min payment, and I am assured that the card will be settled the next month. This is going on since 04 months, but sadly nothing has been done by HDFC.
This month when I received a call from the HDFC CUSTOMER CARE regarding the min payments. I apprised the executive about my previous talk regarding the settlement of card, but he/she refused to listen and kept on insisting about the min payment.He/She wasn’t ready to listen to what I had to say.I am sorry to say but a reputed bank like HDFC should screen people well before they assign them the duty of customer care. The way I was attended on phone is highly objectionable; the ‘CARE’ from the word ‘CUSTOMER CARE’ was completely missing.

Sub- (b) misbehaviour/foul language/getting personal on family.

Today (10.55am, 27/09/2010) I again received a call from [protected]of the same nature, asking for min payment. I very politely requested the CC executive to tell me the net amount I need to deposit, after which my card can be settled so that neither o[censored]s are bothered anymore. But what ever I said wasn’t of any concern to her. She was stuck to ‘min payment’.
She expressed the desire to speak to Ms. Samritee Gupta (the card holder and my younger sister), I told her that, she is married out of India, and is no longer using the card. Listening to this your CC executive said,’LET ME TALK TO HER AS SHE MAY BE OUT OF INDIA BUT SHE MUST HAVE NOT LEFT THIS WORLD’.
I don’t think this statement was needed. And it is just not acceptable at any cost. It calls for a written/verbal apology.
After listening to what she had to say I kept the phone. I again got a call, which was answered by my wife. She again very politely asked to tell her about the settlement procedure, and thereafter the needful will be done. Your CC executive told her, you can’t escape min payments, you can cut the call, not take it, run away from house, India but you will have to make min payments. The CC executive was shouting on top of her volume. Few abusive words were used too, which I need not mention.
I have never defaulted in making payments or in any other money transaction with HDFC.The only motive now was to surrender the card, for which I was asking for the net money to be deposited, and wasn’t interested in making min payemts.IN NO WAY MONEY WAS REFUSED,A SIMPLE PROCEDURE WAS ASKED.
I have deposited Rs5000/- in the HDFC account of Ms. Samritee Gupta,to assure my honest intentions.
I belong to a reputed and cultured business family,we are having 2-3 accounts in HDFC,but such kind of rude/indecent behaviour just not acceptable.

But I would like-
(i) A comment from your side on the statement/behaviour of your CC executive.
(ii) What do you have to say about the way your CC executives are avoiding to give info regarding settlement of card and in bargain asking for payments.
Kindly look into this matter ASAP n revert.

A VERY MUCH DECEIVED CUSTOMER....

I have a de-mat account number 22799181 with HDFC.

HISTORY: I had purchased 30 shares of RIL in Nov 2007, and sold 24 shares between Nov 2007 and Jan 2008. Thus, I retained a total of 6 RIL shares as on 4/1/08. Also, I had 195 shares of RPL. After amalgamation with RIL, I was issued 12 shares of RIL on 2/10/09. Thus, I had a total of 18 RIL shares as on 2/10/09. Hence, I should have been allotted 18 bonus shares as per the 1:1 bonus issue. But, instead of 18, I was allotted only 12 bonus shares, which were credited to my account on 5/12/09.

Hence, there is a deficit of 18-12 + 6(bonus) = 12 shares.

As per the conversation wih people from multiple departments: Demat/ Securities/ Trading Department, I have been thoroughly disappointed by the sorry service given by them.

To worsen the situation, I would like to bring my concerns regarding the ill-treatment given to me. To me (any customer), HDFC is one entity. I, for one, am unable to understand this discrimination/ diversification among the various units like trading/ demat/ securities. It is quite painful to inform you that I am being made to feel like a complete fool. All that is happening is that I am being toggled among these three entities... Demat says it's Trading Dept's domain, etc.....

I have to say that this is very problematic situation, especially to keep on explaining the same problem to multiple people again and again, and of course these people will never call u back, even after multiple assurance of checking n getting back. No matter how may mails you drop or how many people you call, they are absolutely unhelpful and unresponsive.

Though my last full and final payment was made on aug 2010 to HDFC BANK but till date I have not received the NOC for my loan account no 11629477.i try several times to customer care number of hdfc bank but nothing happen.

please i m requesting to hdfc solve my issues soon

I lost my wallet today and with it went my HDFC card...i had some other bank cards too but all of them I could block but HDFC phone service was not available. There IVR didnt have any option for blocking of lost card neither did it have any phone banking executive to adhere to my problem. There website claims to have 24*7 assistance for blocking or reporting of lost card.

Dear Sirs/Madam,

I have already complained against HDFC Bank Ltd. dtd. 14th Sep. 2010 with you on the subject matter. However, I have not received any response so far.

Still the HDFC Collection Centre is harrasing me to pay the loan Installement. For which I have already requesred to them to give me 5 months time. After the period, I have closed my account, which they don't listen.

Therefore, you are requested to consider my case.

Thanks & regards

For some personal reasons I had availed of a personal loan from HDFC, since I already had a loan going on with them. Before I had enrolled for the loan, the telly banker used to literally call me on a daily basis.
Finally, I decided to go for it, and discussed with the phone banker, about getting a personal loan for a tenor of 60 months. I spoke to a girl by the name Surekha, she assured me that, she would have an executive get the documents signed by me and she would fill up the necessary details in them. We went through all the formalities, and she called me and told me all the terms according to a 60 month tenor loan. But, when I get the confirmation letter from HDFC I notice that for some weird reason my tenor showed 36 months and my EMI had gone up by more than Rs. 3000/-. That came as a shock to me, as it threw all my budgeting for a toss. I called up Surekha to ask her to get it corrected, but I that I got was a run around. Finally, I got exasperated and threatened to close all my accounts with HDFC and mention in the foreclosures forms the names of her and her credit manager. That is when she finally proceeded to get another document processed and assured me that things would be fine at the end of it.
But, alas!!! That was not to be the case. She called me today to inform me that in the first month I would have to pay 2 EMI one for Rs. 9741/- and the other one for Rs. 6332/- and the one for Rs. 9741 would be refunded in 15 days time. This was ridiculous, I was getting impacted because of an error on the part of the bank official, and the bank would not even pay me the interest for the 15 days that would be using the funds.
I have now decided to get all my loan accounts with HDFC closed and never bank with HDFC again.

SHAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I bought an insurance for my car on 10 Aug 10. As per my bank statement, HDFC ERGO encashed the cheque on 18 Aug. It is 20 Sep today, and there is still no sight of the Insurance Policy. The agent doesnt pick up the phone. Registered an online complaint with HDFC ERGO on 10 Sep. On 14th they replied and asked me for my previous policy which I sent on the 15th. Till today, am still waiting for a response. I DREAD TO THINK WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I EVER NEED TO MAKE A CLAIM. Listen, all you nice people, who take the trouble to check the CONSUMER COMPLAINTS website..take note of my experience with HDFC ERGO, and never ever insure with them.
