SIR AFTER MY REPEATED CORRESPONDENCE REGARDING MY LOAN AGREEMENT LTBDR[protected] WITH UR BANK NO BODY IS LISTENING. MY DUE EMI AMOUNT 1300 FOR THE MONTH OF JUL 2009 WHY IT IS NOT DRAWNED FROM BANK ONCE I HAVE PAID ALL CHEQUES IN ADVANCE AND SUFFICIENT AMOUNT WAS AVAILABLE . IF THIS IS YOUR CLERICAL MISTAKE WHY I SHOULD SUFFER FOR INTEREST ON DUE AMOUNT. AS AMOUNT IS DUE I AM READY TO PAY RS 1300 IN ICICI COUNTER BUT NOT INTEREST.
I HAVE ALREADY DISCLOSED ALL DOCUMENTS REQUIRED STILL IF IT IS NOT SOLVE I AM FORWARDING THE MATTER TO CONSUMER COURT.
I THINK THERE IS NO ONE TO LISTEN IN THE BANK. MY LETTER TO MR SHIVA KUMAR TADIKONDA NODAL OFFICER ALSO SHOWS NO SOLUTION.
THANKS THIS IS FOR YOUR INFORMATION .

Hello Sir/Madam,

Subject : CAR Loan Approval delay ; ITO head office HDFC Bank

This is Suraj Prakash Prdhan, resident of Model Town II, Delhi 9.
I have my salary account in HDFC Bank, Noida.

I had pre-approved CAR Loan with HDFC Bank, so with the thinking that loan disbursement will shorter time , I had applied CAR Loan through Online in your ITO head office.

Each and every formality of loan processing is completed. But HDFC folks have specified Model No of CAR wrongly. And just to update the model number they have taken two complete day. I had made to wait there in MGF Hyundai showroom since 1 pm to 6 pm yesterday 28th Dec. Each and every time HDFC folks ensuring that model change will be done shortly. and at the last around 6 pm , i got to know that server is down. It has not been done yet today 29th dec.

I have applied loan amount for 2.75 lacs (where as pre-approved loan limit is 7.5 lacs). I have applied for "i10 1.1 magna " however they have specified the model wrongly "i10 1.2 magna". What i need is to change the model number and get the loan approval asap.

I, Gopal Chandra Dey residing at 16, Suren Tagore Road, Kolkata – 700019 do have both my Personal & Business accounts with HDFC Bank Golpark branch right from the day of the Bank’s Inauguration period of around[protected].

It’s been a very good relation and I had numerous Fixed Deposits and got lot of business transactions with HDFC Bank. I was having a high respect and trust in HDFC Bank and their policies.

Until I came across in[protected] few of your people like Mr. Kaushik Haldar from HDFC Standard Life, Mr. Arjun Banerjee from HDFC Bank (Golpark Branch) & Mr. Sanjay Goswami – Relationship Manager HDFC Bank (Golpark Branch) for last 2 years with 100% Fraud as well as Misleading Commitments regarding selling of the abovementioned Policy of HDFC Standard Life – Pension Plan.

Mr. Kaushik Haldar of HDFC Standard Life had visited my shop “The Gucci Fashion Valley” alongwith Mr. Arjun Banerjee hearing I got a FIXED DEPOSIT in HDFC Bank from Mr. Arjun Banerjee and have tried to convince to go for the abovementioned Insurance Policy. I have numerously told them I’m not so aware of such policies in the market and it is real tough for me to understand the concept of these sorts of Policies which are Unit Linked or something like allocating my Money to Company Bonds.

But even after my continuous negative reply they hammered me for around 25 occasions showing me this Policy will not only cover my life risk but will also give me a better benefit about 90% growth within 3 years if I split my Fixed Deposit which is just giving me around 9% growth per year and deposit a onetime Rs.20 Lakhs in this Pension Plan Policy rather than only getting 9% annual benefit. I told them there is no such thing I ever heard, both of Mr. Kaushik Haldar & Mr. Arjun Banerjee told me due to regulations of IRDA (Insurance Administrative Body) this can’t be proclaimed or advertised and compared to lot of other policies like of LIC/ TATA AIG etc. who are not giving such benefits.

The BIGGEST MISTAKE I made, is to finally go with their words in December 2007 and transferred Rs.20,00,000 from my Fixed Deposit toward onetime premium of HDFC Standard Life – Pension Plan Policy Number:11466812. See, I am a very simple businessman and since I was having complete trust over HDFC Bank and their people I have been overwhelmed by their benefits through this plan after repeated hammering by those 2 people (Mr. Kaushik Haldar & Mr. Arjun Banerjee) and fell in their trap of Fraudulent Commitments and Misleading that my money will be invested in Bonds to get such hike. My step was based upon trust for 15 years rather than understanding the entire misleading concepts they have forwarded to me.
I’m completely stunned around the next year December 2008 when I suddenly got a notice from HDFC Standard Life for Rs.20 Lakhs as the Next Year Premium. I have gone to HDFC Bank Golpark Branch enquiring regarding this, I met Mr. Sanjay Goswami who let me know that it was done in a mode of Rs.20 Lakhs Premium every year and my entire first Premium is invested to Shares rather than Bond and due to Share Market turbulence my Rs.20 Lakhs has been reduced to Rs.9 Lakhs during December, 2008. Hearing this I was completely speechless, it means a complete loss of Rs.11 Lakhs. I asked Mr. Sanjay Goswami how this could be possible, how you people can cheat me like this and mislead me. He told me not to bother it will be ok once the market regains my money will be again counting to 90% benefit as told by the executives and forwarded me a paper from his computer with proper computation on my Policy which shows my Money will definitely rise to an amount of Rs.39 Lakhs at the December of 2010. I asked him to stop my Policy or convert it to Bond system and get me my full money back, but Mr. Sanjay Goswami told me according to the policy it is not possible better wait for the right time for atleast 1 year and as per banking analysis the market will definitely rise and by December 2009 I will be having Rs.32 Lakhs as my Policy Value and then you can convert it to Bond system so that their will not be any risk. I told him how I can believe him, he gets me a Paper Printed (mentioned just above) with Computed Return on my Policy alongwith his corporate email ID printed in it and his Business Card and told he is a Relationship Manager and he can’t mislead people sitting in Bank. It is the executives who had misleaded me due to lack of training and he had apologized for that and assured on the returns once again and to keep trust in HDFC Bank. And for keeping the policy running I must give the minimum possible Premium which is Rs.10,000 annually. I felt somehow assured sitting in bank and on his request had given a letter to convert my premium to Rs.10,000 and given the premium also.

Now, this year they have given me the regular notice for the Next Premium I have enquired about my policy and found it is still Rs.16 Lakhs approximately not even the money I deposited as my first Premium. And now I strongly believe this is somehow a gambling done in disguise of Life Insurance Policy, and it may anytime go to Rs.5 Lakhs or to NIL at any period of time due to share market.
So, see what I’m left today is a complete disrespect for your Bank and allied services and your great Misleaders and Fraudulent commitments given due to my less knowledge in these areas. If my money had been with normal FIXED DEPOSIT system it should have increased to around Rs.24 Lakhs by now where as felling in your trap of cheating the old customers like me I am running in a NET LOSS of Rs.8 Lakhs. This is what your people and your system has caused me and my present financial scenario has suffered a much for this.

Dear Sir/Mam,

This is in regard to the Problem faced by me for cheque number[protected] of HDFC Bank,

I deposited a premium of Rs 39684 for LIC through above mentioned cheque on 5th Dec-09, the policy number was mine and the cheque was also of mine, prior to that I also I have deposited cheque for my other policy but no problem was there at that time but this time my cheque was dishonoured mentioning that "SIGNATURE DIFFERS",

firstly cheque was for a policy that was of mine itself (Saurabh Gupta) and cheque was also of mine,
secondly I have never faced any problem prior to that for he same,

The matter of dissatisfaction was that neither I was given any Info on Phone nor I received any mail from your side, this I came to know when I checked my account,

I paid the premium on exact date but due to it I got delayed by 21 days in submitting and then had to resubmit, which has spoiled my Image in view of LIC,

Secondly If I wudn't have checked my account for almost a month I wud not be knowing the same,

for an example if a case happens like that and policy cudn't be renewed and GOD forbid Sum One dies then Claim will be hanged and WHO WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SAME for Such cases,

Also due to it I got my Receipt of LIC with statement Cheque Dishonoured.

I also paid Rs 125 extra for the same (for no reason),

I would request you to check the same as It has really Hurted me a lot, I was really happy with HDFC but such Incident has disturbed me a lot, whenever there is a new scheme, HDFC Executive calls multiple times but for such incident I wasn't been Intimated, WHY??

Please look into the matter and revert ASAP.

I applied for an HDFC bank credit card in 2008, the executive who visited my office asked me to sign the forms saying i am in hurry and have some personal (financial & some one unwell at home) & fill will up the forms later and collected xerox copy of my documents.
I specifically told him my requirements,first he did not give me any application no neither copy of the form also he told me i will get the card in 10 days but it was more than a month.
When i started using the card i came to know about some different terms & conditions.
i called the call center & told them i have done 2 transactions i will make the payment & you disconnect the card as i am expecting & will make the payments after 1 month and please consider.
They said OK but started charging me late fees & service tax inspite of executive promising me that it will not be charged.
then i get a call saying make 500 payment & we will send you a settlement letter,i paid rs1000 to the executive who visited me.
Till date i have not received any settlement letter,also a lady called me for payment reminder & i disconnected saying i am busy but she kept calling me & called me 28 times in 20 minutes to harrass me & kept my phone busy.
This is sheer tortue & also spoke to me rudely.

Dear Sir ,

We would like to bring to your notice that i was holding a credit card of HDFC Bank ( Credit Card No- [protected]) which due to some financial reasons there was a delay in payments of the outstanding in the credit card account .

I have been receiving threat calls from HDFC bank from one of the ladies representative namely Miss . Natasha ( NO. [protected]/5300/5100 -) that i need to pay the outstanding of INR 3400 out of the total outstanding of INR 71000/- else i need face dare consequeces like they would be sending goons to kill us and my family members and relatives . I have been assuring her that i would be making the payment a of INR 15000 by coming 1st of January 2010 and the whole payment would be paid of by 01/02/2010 but she was abusive and started screaming . When i asked her to pass on the call to her senior she was not ready to do the same .

I am really sorry to say that if this is the way banks treat there customers it would be really difficult for anybody to trust any system as they dont fear anybody and clearly state that the customers are there puppets and can do anything to recover there money .

Hope we will be able to get the justice from this as we are very much mentally harrased and i wdont think so that it is such a big thing as you must also be aware that due to global financial crisis deliquencies have increased and when I am assuring that i would be making the payment what is the sense in calling us and threatning us and my old parents , i iwant strict action against the said employee and her senior . I dont whether the name above refefred is the rigth name as people in call centres keep a dummy name to hide there identity . The copy of the said mail has been send to Banking Ombudsman also. Awaiting revert .

Thanking You ,
Yours Truly,

I am having a demat account with ICICI bank in the names of (1) myself - Deepti Deveshkumar Jinwala and (2) my husband - Deveshkumar Chhabildas Jinwala; in which I was holding 250 shares of Centurion Bank of Punjab in "freeze" form. Upon merger of the Centurion Bank of Punjab with the HDFC bank, I should have been allocated 8 shares of HDFC bank (should have been credited in my demat account with ICICI bank).

However, to my utter disappointment I realize the same has not yet been credited. Upon contacting the ICICIbank demat section, I have been informed that they are helpless in the matter as the Centurion Bank of Punjab has merged with HDFC bank and it is their (the latter both) responsibility to credit the shares and not that of ICICI bank's.

Please let me know what should I do further in the matter and/or help me get the shares credited in may account.

Hi,

1 month back I applied for cancellation of fraud policy of HDFC Standard Life Insurance (Name of the Plan:HDFC Unit Linked Wealth Multiplier) and still am struggling to get back the money from this Fraud Company.

The amount for us is huge (Rs.250000) and there is no correct Information from the company when the money will be refunded.Though it is mentioned that once the policy is cancelled money will be refunded back in 5 days.


The employee of this Company are cheating people by giving wrong information and taking out the hard earned money from local people.
They said if invested 250000 for 3 consecutive years 25 lakhs will be refunded at 7th year.
They never mentioned that this mutual fund policy and high risk is involved in such investments.

Hello All,

Before opening the trading account or do the trading in HDFC Securities, confirm the brokerage percentage.

Generally they tell you 0.05% means 5Paisa per Hundered rupees or Rs. 25 Whichever is higher.

How it works please see below.

Until each transaction doesn't meet the value of Rs 50000/- you will be charged for Rs. 25.
If your transaction worth Rs.10000.00 the brokerage is Rs. 25/- it doesn't equal 0.05%. If you do such kind of transaction for 10 times you will be paying more for you brokerage whatever the profit/loss you are going to get.

Dear Sir,

I took a personal loan from HDFC bank on the condition of debiting my a/c for EMI from ICICI bank every month, my 1st month's EMI was deducted sucessfully but since then from 2nd month they have called me saying they are not able to process my EMI so i need to call my bank and resolve my issue...they have not sent me any letter but keeping on calling me as if i am a defaulter and abusing me daily....on email of them says some issue with ECS and other says some issue with my signature.....

They are now telling me to pay through a DD or cash or they will send a collection agency person to my house which i strongly object. Just because they are not able to deal with my bank for reasons which are unknown to me i am being dragged between issues with both the banks in spite of having sufficient amount in my a.c throughout the month.......

I would sincerely request you to help me out of this kind of loose behavior from HDFC bank ...

Hdfc Personal loan department is the worst department of hdfc entire division.Nobody respond properly to customer calls and neither they pick up calls.I applied for a loan 1 month back.continously i recieved calls from hdfc until i signup agreement with them.Before i was told by sales person siddharth that an offer is going for TCS employees where in intrest rate is 14.5% and preclosure is 2% and processing fee as 2%...But later on in the agreement the preclosure amount was given as 4 %.On the day of agreement ,siddharth forcebly made me sign up agreement and said that later on he will check on the deduction and right from the day he is not available on any calls and prachi the customer care person never picks up calls.i have never seen such a worst service from any other banks..its a fraud bank.I have been disappointed with your customer care serivce. Sort out this issue at earliest.I sincerely request HDFC to sort out such irresponsible employees and suspend them to keepup company';s reputation.please take a complaint on siddharth (Andheri branch no:[protected]);prachi (from customer care dept. no:[protected].Please contact me on [protected]..Please take this on a very serious note.

Dear Sir,

I am an account holder of HDFC bank, First india place, gurgaon, Tel:[protected]
my account no. is [protected]
I have zero balance account in this branch which is opened by Equinox global service p ltd. I have leave that company on 11/01/2008. after that my salary has not transfer on that account. before 25/10/2009 i have asked at Patel Nagar branch at front desk they told me if your account is active still after a long time then you have no problem to transaction with
this accont because it is still a zero balance account because if your account have been regular it is already closed because on regular account if you don't transaction upto 6months your account is automatically closed. if it is still active your account is now zero balance account. then 25/10/2009 i have checked my balance at ATM it is also showed me available balance is 0.00 i have printed copy with me. After all the trust, from HDFC bank then i have deposited Rs. 600/- on my account. then i countinously done two three transaction without any deduction fees. As my credit card bill is crossed Rs. 30000/- i have request to my friend to give some money then he deposited Rs. 35000/- on my account. then i have done one-two transaction more. without any deduction fees. but on 5/11/2009 automatically deduct Rs. 1700/- from my account.Then I call to customer care named ANU Ji, after all details she told me I knows everything as I am a banker, you don’t have any idea about account. She behaved like missbihaved and she cut the line without any satisfy answer. Then I call another time to customer care on 10/11/2009 phone received by Bhabna then she call transfer to Sangeeta Ji, she told me same which is told by patel nagar branch if you don’t transaction upto six month then your account is automatically closed. Kindly advice.

Also I know Citibank is showed negative balance if you don’t transaction or your salary is didn’t transfer to your account. IF Citibank is showed negative balance why HDFC bank cann’t show negative balance. I know Customer doesn’t have so much knowledge so customer automatically fishing by HDFC bank.

Respected sir/madam

I have taken home loan from hdfc, which is under the floating rate category
Now these days the floating home loan is available at 8.25%(Approx) but they are charging 10.25% from me. I have already lost so much of money due to this .
And now they ready to decrease the rate to 9.25 % by paying 0.5% as processing fee but not equal to new customers
I want to complaint for following

1) why they are charging more when rate is less (Is cheating or not) in floating rate

2) why in the floating rate, rate do not decrease at their own when they are increased it by their own ( bank)

3) why they are charging the processing fee to decrease rate of interest

4) still they not making the rate equal to new costumers( which is 1% more than new customers

5) what happen to that money which they already charge from me in last year or so with higher rate

My home detail are loan account no is:[protected] , from hdfc loan sanctioned amount- 17,90,000 with emi 17,572
