Address: Bangalore, Karnataka

My salary account (In hdfc bank) was created in my first company, so once i left the company and joined somewhere else i had to open another salary account. Now my salary account in hdfc bank has been converted to savings account (Without informing me or warning me) in the month of march i had called customer care and raised a request to close my account as i did not want to use the account and they did say that they will follow up with the request and close the account.

Dear Sir,

My name is Sivasankara Reddy.

It’s almost two years since I left IT Company, I’m no longer associate with ITSource or your HDFC Salary Account. It is illegal to charge for not maintaining the minimum balance.Below are my account details.

Branch: OLD MADRAS ROAD (Old Madras Road No. 7/3, Opp Rmz Infinity, Next To Gopal Mall Old Madras Road Pin 560016, Bangalore)
Contact Number: [protected]

I am no longer using any of your HDFC services. I do not need this account due to personal inconvenience.
It is showing negative balance(-4302 RS) Due to your maintenance charges and you are still deducting money from this account A/c No: [protected].
This is really inappropriate and irresponsible behavior from a reputed bank like yours.
So I request you to kindly close my HDFC salary account A/c No: [protected] because it’s no longer required since I left the company and I don’t want to continue with your services.
I have moved to Hyderabad so it won’t be easy for me to contact home branch.

I visited the home branch 3 months ago, they asked me to pay the balance first. But, According to new RBI guidelines banks are not supposed to penalize for dormant accounts. But, when i contacted the customer care they are refraining from closing it saying i have to pay the fine.

I am requesting please consider this mail a final, closure of HDFC Salary Account A/c No: [protected].
Your assistance in this regard will be highly appreciated( I am requesting you to please waive the penalty).

Thank you,
Sivasankara Reddy
