This branch has deducted Rs 2640 @660 per month for four months due to low balance charges Whereas we were having more than 2 Lacs in the shape of stdrs at that time. Matter was discussed many times with brach Head Gurmeet s Singh and he assured me all the times to revese the amount by affording credit in my account. More than 3 months have lapsed but he is lingering the matter delibrately. Now i have withdrawn all my money from your bank & kept it at home in my locker. I am not willing to put it backuntill my problem is solved . I fear they can now deduct charges again because at present I have no bmegar balance in my account.once my problem is solved i will put back all the money. I request you to kindly take necessary action at the earliest, or else I may be forced to go to consumercourt .

I HAD QUERY REGARDING MAPPING OF CREDIT CARD IN NET BANKING TO VIEW SUMMURY OF TRANSACTIONS THROUGH CREDIT CARD. EVEN OF IMMENSE OF FOLLOW UP AND REMINDERS, THE QUERY IS UNSOLVED AND AS AND WHEN I CALL CUSTOMER CARE, I HAD TO MENTION MY QUERY FROM "A TO Z". I HAD WRITTEN LETTER ALSO FOR THE SAME, BUT NO RESULT YET. AS AND WHEN I CALL CUSTOMER CARE, I AM BEING TOLD BY EXECUTIVES THAT THE MATTER WILL BE SOLVED WITHIN 24-48-72 HOURS, BUT NO RESULT SINCE 3RD NOVEMBER, 2008.

WHOM SO EVER CONCERNED THERE[protected][I AM ATTACHING THE ORIGINAL MAIL SENT TO HDFC SUPPORT)



I am not convinced with the reply from Mr. Krishna Kumar below. I went to that shop and spoke to the owner who told me that they have not got the payment (ie. double payment) as it reflects in my statement. As he had immediately done a VOID SALE, the same was cancelled…..



I...

i have applied for credit card several times to the bank...they always check and tell me that i am eligible to get a card from them...after i submit all my documents, then after all verifications they say that im not eligible for the card...plz help me...i always pay all my bills on time...my credit score is very good...

I am having a card loan from HDFC, which is running since last 3 years and I applied for Auto debit from my bank account using ECS facility.

Now a days I am getting calls from HDFC recovery agents, that I have some dues pending for my loan due to late payment of EMIs.

I am not able to understand this I am paying EMIs thru ECS, then how can be there late Payment. If Payment date is on 7th of every month and due to any reason 7 falls on holiday, then I should not be held responsible for delays. This is something bank should have taken care and they should debit amount before 7th.

This is rubbish.

I opened a NRE account in HDFC bank in Aug 2005. In Jan 2006, i requested them to provide me internet banking pin, again i requested for the same in July 2007, this was in person at the bank. Till jan 2008 nothing was received, then i asked them to change my postal address, they did not do so. Now I have been requesting them to close my account as i am totally disgusted, they are not doing so. 20 days ago my aged father went there with my application form they said I must send them INR 900 as a penalty for low balance and then they will do, on 30 Nov i sent them OMR 10 ( that day's value was INR 128 x 1 OMR), today they tell my father that they received only 450 INR and I must send in more money only then they will close. they are also saying the penalty keeps increasing on a daily basis. Can some one save me from these scoundrals My account No[protected], branch HDFC Bank Sector 18, Noida. Name Manoj Sharma am based in Muscat

Please be informed that above loan was applied by me for 36 months but it was wrongly disbursed for 17 months which creates me some problem and as a result i stopped to provide funds But several discussion were gone & no one take iniciative to rescheduled it in 36 months. At last Mr. Vikramjit who was manager at Rajouri Garden (Delhi) request me to start the payment and he will get it rescheduled. But result was Nill. Two days back I got a call from Customer Care. Miss Avantika (Manager, Rajouri Garden). She realised this mistake and promise to reschedule this loan with balance amount of Rs. 14, 787 only by adding 3 new installments. Now you are requested to adjust this Amount with 3 new instalments and reschdule the loan 17 to 20 instalments.

HERASSMENT AND THREATENING BY HDFC BANK

Dear Sir,

I purchased a Spark car on 30/4/2008 and a loan of Rs. 150000=00 was taken from HDFC Bank with repayment for a period of 3 years with 36 EMIs amounting each of Rs. 4850=00 P.M. The HDFC Bank Auto Loan Account No. is 13150124.

2. An advance EMI was taken on loan sanction day (for May 2008) and balance repayment was to start from 09/06/2008. I authorized the HDFC bank for payment of EMIs through ECS facility from my ING Vysya Bank saving account and necessary forms were filled.

3. In 1st week of June2008, I received a call from HDFC bank asking me to give a cheque of Rs. 4850=00. I explained him that ECS facility has already been given to bank. After two days i.e. on 7/6/2008 another person again called at my mobile phone very rudely and threatened me to give cheque otherwise to bear consequences. This regular threatening continued till 15/6/2008. Ultimately I went to HDFC bank office at Safdarjung Enclave on 16/6/2008 to inquire the details. The bank executive told me that due to problem at our Head office at Mumbai, your ECS form was not processed, so you deposit a cheque this month only. Therefore I deposited the cheque on 16/6/2008 vide receipt No.10481045. More over as precautionary measure, a fresh ECS mandate form duly verified by my ING Vysya Bank was again submitted to HDFC bank on 18/6/2008 for balance EMIs.

4. Again on 2/7/2008, I received a call from HDFC bank asking me very rudely to give a cheque of Rs. 4850=00. I explained him that an ECS mandate form was again submitted to HDFC bank for balance EMIs duly verified by my ING Vysya Bank. Then I enquired from HDFC bank office telephonically and bank executive told me that due to problem at our Head office at Mumbai, your ECS would be active from August-2008 and this month you have to give the cheque. So I gave a cheque to recovery agent on 5/7/2008 vide receipt No. 10770959.

5. I was astonished to see my ING Vysya Bank records on 10/7/2008 that a sum of Rs. 4850 as EMI has also been taken on 9/7/2008. I asked HDFC bank to refund the amount of Rs. 4850. But Executive told me that this double amount has been adjusted as interest. But the executive was unable to explain the reason & type of interest. Then I met and threatened the Manger to lodge FIR to police for cheating, and then they agreed to refund the amount. And amount of Rs. 4814=00 only (i.e. by deducting of Rs. 36=00 with out stating any reason) was refunded through cheque on 8/8/2008 i.e. after one month. The HDFC bank should pay me interest for holding my money for one month.

6. From July onwards there is regular payment of EMIs through ECS to HDFC bank

7. On 17/11/2008, I again received a call (No.[protected] from HDFC bank agent asking me very rudely to pay Rs 1250=00 as interest. I asked him to explain the reason for interest but person was so rude that he did not wanted to hear me and I disconnected the phone. Now I am repeatedly receiving threatening calls for payment. More over I have been paying my EMIs regularly through ECS. Then what is the meaning of interest? Moreover HDFC bank should pay me the interest for holding my money for one month by cheating me.

8. On 12/12/2008, I again received a call from HDFC bank agent asking me very rudely and threatened me to see consequences physically.

9. Sir I request the concerned authorities and RBI to take action against such a most worse bank for threatening, unnecessary harassing, extracting money by threatening and cheating and also direct the bank to pay me the interest for holding my money of Rs. 4850=00 for one month by cheating me.

Dear Sir

I have never seen such a lazy/sluggish and non-sincere courier company in my life. All my couriers sent thru the EXPRESSIT not at all delivered to me from last three months.
They deliver tappals according to their convenience. They are not at all sincere. Mnay document could not be delivered to and so asked me to contact in 2 number[protected] & [protected]). When I tried to contact those numbers more than 100 times, THEY NEVER LIFTED THE PHONE. Instead after the call was over becos of no answer, THEY PUT DOWN THE RECEIVER AS IS THEY WERE ATTENDING ANOTHER CALL.
Not even a single time they lifted the phone. Even anybody can check those numbers. Becos of these bad/worst behaviour of this, Many of my couriers have not been received back me. Lot of inconvenience becos of them.

I request you to do something to these non-sincere/Lazy persons otherwise lot of persons would be affected.

Yours faithfully,

PAWAN

Hi Sir/Ma'am,

This is in reference to my Credit Card settlement.This card is been lost long time back & Iam trying to settle in one shot payment since 5months now.I have been very frustrated & tortured by your reputed HDFC bank.Every collections branch wherever my Acct has been transferred I have tried calling & ask them to seetle this out.They just use to say that make this much payment & then we would provide you the Final letter next month.
Like this, months has just passed .And now HDFC bank has taken my last nerve, when this mont on 3-Dec after making the payment of Rs.4800 as told by NIHARIKA CHOUDHARY(Rajouri Garden Branch.N.Delhi.She assured that after making the payment they would provide the Full & final letter of remainig Rs.22, 000 on Saturday(05-Dec).As I had already paid more then Rs.22, 000.However, on the contrary Rs.47, 4000 from my savings account was placed on hold by this credit card dept.I have spoken to each & every Manager of that collections branch i.e.Hardeep Singh, Anuj Choudhary, Puneet Oberoi.Nobody has helped me at all.They just always hung up on me or they just say that they will release it tomorrow.Now, today is 11th of Dec & if this matter is not settled till 18th-Dec then who will repay the money.That is my har earned money.Not to mention the Card was used by an METLIFE Agent witjout my consent.As he just enquire about the policy & took my card #.Metlife has given me the check of Rs.50, 000 but it took months to clear. I have a letter from METLIFE INSURANCE to proof it.I have recorded calls from HDFC Collections dept & customer care reps also along with the interaction with Hardeep Singh, Anuj Choudhary, Puneet Oberoi.
Iam so disheartened by the pathetic customer service, HDFC doesn't have humanity at all.
I request you to please try & understand my situation & look in to the matter ASAP as I dont have time also.If my Amonut of Rs.47, 400 is used by HDFC then I would be bound to report it not only to the consumer court but also to the National News channels with all the Interactions which is not at all good very obvious for HDFC's side.
This is my last hope I kindly request you to please help & release the block & hold from my savings account.
Thanking you,
Your's Sincearly,
Ritu Pangti

Sir,
My name is K.Krishna Kumar and I have my salary account with HDFC bank.Ref CUS ID :20867320.

On saturday (5.12.08)there was a debit entry of Rs.5000/-. On calling the customer care, they informed me that the fund has got transferred to my FD account, whereas I had not given any request in this regard.As a mater of fact I was not in station on the specified date(5.12.08).I was at Madurai.(I was traveling from 7th to til date and was forced to run around for money for no mistake of Mine.)They had informed me that the transaction has happened from HDFC Banerjee Road branch at Kochi.

I had called customer care today morning and spoke to Mr.Sujith.He also gave me the names of Mr.Sreejith and Ms.Suguna Shenoy(officers at Banerjee road branch), with an assurance that one of the officers will call me within half an hour after reverting the entry.The assurance was around 11.00 AM.

Then I had called customer care again in the evening by 4.00 PM, and spoke to Ms.Shaniba who gave me the name of Mr.Prakash Parameshwaran, .stating that they have forwarded the complaint, who will rvert within one hour.But to my disappointment, no response from the till now.

Again I'm starting my travel from t'mmow morning.I'm forced to beg and borrow money and face needless mental torture due to this matter.

I request you to help me with your valuable suggestions to apply for a claim case against the bank.

Regards
K.Krishna Kumar
