ICICI Bank Complaints & Reviews

We applied a gold e-auction of 148.39 grams (22k gold ). It has four bangles each of weight 37 grams . Out of four bangles,
we melted one bangle, its purity found to be 7.914k
actual price of 148.39 grams gold is 5, 93, 600
total money transfered is 6, 11, 408 (with 3% gst).

We are suffering a major loss (approx 4lakh).

Banks also do frauds like this?
who we believe?
we can...

Lately my whole family, mark my words "WHOLE FAMILY" has been getting threatening call from a guy who identified himself as "Suresh Sharma" who says he is calling from icici bank. He says someone named "Satish Kaskar" related to us got a loan from your bank in the 2000s and he is asking US to repay.
The calls start everyday from early morning. He first calls my mom who is 80 years of age . then my dad, my sister, wife and everybody in our family, on hanging up the phone he keeps calling continuously from different different numbers.
No one in our family has even have a saving account with you bank let alone taking any loan from icici bank. we have all the recordings of the calls and soon going to lodge a police complaint.
Surprising thing is how illegibly he has acquired mobile numbers of our family members and he targets only ladies and elderly people and says he got the number from person who took loan even though the mobile carriers itself where non existent in 2000s.
ICICI, please stop this harassments of innocent, not related to you by any kind of people. please

An amount of Rs.4970/- has been deducted from my ICICI account no #[protected] on 18th Dec'21. When I called the customer care they gave me reference that the deduction is against one of my mutual fund portfolio.

I thoroughly checked my portfolio to double check for any misunderstanding as I do not place SIP deduction during the month..but nothing was there.

I immediately called customer care and asked them...

₹ 28320 deducted from my account in the name of NMMAB- Request reversal.

Icici deducted ~ 28k from my account without any information in advance either in writing, sms or phone call.

If I was unable to maintain MAB bank should have notified me through sms( Icici charges ₹29.5), mail( Instead of sending blank Statements on mail they should write about the negative balance) or phone.

ICICI Bank freeze my savings account without any intimation

ACCOUNT NUMBER:[protected].

Entire Customer Support facility of ICICI Bank is a mess. They are not aware of processes and they gives misleading responses to customer.

I have a query to transfer my mutual funds holding from ICICI trading account to HDFC trading account.

If I connect to Customer Care, one time they will answer saying fill a "Transfer of mutual fund forms"
Another time they will say we can not do anything connect to HDFC.

If I write email to ICICI Helpdesk, they one time they will say fill a form for transfer.
On asking more details they will say check with HDFC.

Are these guys for real ? Don't they even read previous replies and blindly copy paste the standard responses ?

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have been following up for the last 6 months to convert my demat account into NRI status (ARN [protected]). My demat account has been kept in suspended state for no reason known to me.

The only information provided to me

[From ICICI, September 2, 2021]
"Your scrutiny and verification of application is complete form our side.

Your demat account IN[protected] is suspended for debit status. Please clear the debit balance and confirm through mail. Only then your process will be completed and account will be activated."

When I followed up about this debit balance, I received a communication:

[From ICICI, Nov 29, 2021]
"After confirming with the bank team, there is no dues but your demat account is Suspended due to debit balance.

Because it is suspended neither can we convert the account or close the account."

I have followed up with all possible options and I still do not know what is this "debit balance" issue that can not be corrected. Why is a customer being penalized for something that he/she does not even know?

Because of my location, it is not possible for me to visit a branch.

Thank you.

I am Manish and I have been charged so many times EBA/NSE N. Not sure what it is, please refund it.

Rs 590 was charged twice today from my acc without my knowledge. And I'm unable to know what are these charges are and I'm in need of money right now. Plz call and clarify [protected]

They the bank hit the charges without my knowledge and without any confirmation email or sms or any phone call. Please explain what the charge it is. This type direction is not good please return my charged amount.

I have been charged MAB charges for not maintaining minimum balance in the account. I have following issues with the charges and request for reversal
A/C no.[protected]
Jalna branch
1) MAB charges of around RS 1772.52(my account got debited by
Rs.526.72 on 21/10/2021 and Rs.591.19 on 22/10/2021 and Rs.654.61 on 11/11/2021.) got deducted from my account and no information either in writing or sms or phone call was provided by ICICI bank
2) ICICI bank deducts some amount for sms pack to update me for any transactions from the account. However, this information was not shared by any means.All other transaction details are sent by SMS then why not this one.
3)No message or email from ICICI bank informing that my account has low balance and could attract penal charges
4)This information of MAB of 10000 was also incorrectly shared and nobody told me about maintaining minimum balance of 10000 rupees.then how can I maintain it.
5) No where even after logging into my accounts dashboard, no pop-up or message or red signal comes stating my balance is low etc.

Today, we are going cashless where real time information sharing is critical. However, with such nature of transaction, it shows spurious and mistrust on part of bank.

With this, i request for reversal

Priyanka
