Dear sir,

Since last one and half years i have been receiving mail & sms on my personal mail and mobile no to pay the dues emi of vehicle loan and also confirmation mail of received the funds of emi.

In beginning we thought it might be a mistake during filling the loan application/ forms or sent by mistake to me.

I replied on 3rd mail of reminder on emi.
We clarified in mail that we are not right person for such communication.

We also cleared in mail that we have never taken any loan from kotak mahindra bank so please check your details and remove my mail i'd and mobile no.

Sadly no action has been taken from bank besides a single mail, saying "we are looking in to this matter".

Sad part is that when we called to call center no for complains they said "you should be careful for your personal documents" they also confirmed my previous official address which was given in loan detail.

How it's possible that someone can take loan in behalf of my documents bank details and official address.

How kotak mahindra bank can lend the loan without genuine verification and all.

This is serious concern, my life has become disturbed as my family members has taken it very seriously and lot's o[censored]nwanted debates happens at my home due to this issue.. And still i am being given reminders for emi and etc.

Please help.

With regards

    Hello,

    I had a salary account with kotak. Last year since

    sep 2016 onwards i changed my job and its no more my

    salary account. However, the only reason I was

    continuing with this bank was that I had an ECS with

    this bank. But since september every month when I

    deposit 6500 for an ECS of 5940, still my ECS gets

    returned every single month. And they dnt have any

    proper reason. This month when I went to their

    branch and asked the reason, that despite of

    depositing amount why is my ECS getting returned.

    They told there is Rs 12000 fine incurred which they

    didn't even bother to inform me once. All my money

    are lapsed and my credit score affected badly in

    spite of depositing balance regularly.
    This is the worst experience and when i complain

    they simply say to close my account from this bank.

    They dont even care for customer and its such a risk

    to have an account with such bank who do not have

    transparency with their customer about the charges

    deduction incurred in their account.

    Aweful Experience...I would never recommend any of

    my friend to open an account with this bank.

      My personel Loan account Number 59277970
      It had mutually discussed and decided the Monthly EME will be deducted from my salary account in ICICI bank Lower parel branch. Frist 4-5 months it had happend. later the amount was deducting eventhough the said amount was in salary account. Finally we called the branch to find out, then they communicated that "Kotak bank some system having some issue". There after they started to come and collect the amount from my husband 's shop in Bhandup.
      Due to bank's system issues the amount was not deducted and now it is considered as i have not responded on loan recall notice.
      I can produce my last 3yrs salary satatement to prove that said amount was present in my account in given date

          The people who are harassing and not resolving the issue and aggravating the whole issue for their "incentives" are Santosh, Srikant Kanwal; Hemant patole; these people sent a "recovery agent" Nitesh Patil on Sunday at 7:00 am who was abusing and shouting. I have lodged a criminal case for the same at Khar police station aswell.
          These names have been mentioned in all complaints calls and communications of mine to Kotak no action has been taken. I have call recordings of these above mentioned people where they are saying "the account situation is not their concern, they will always call on and post 15th of every month because it affects their incentives". These people are using unethical language and threatening me for incentives. They have stated "that we need money in cash and we accept that it's Kotak's fault but we still need money to stop the recovery it's month end and we have our incentive targets". My family has been constantly harassed and ill treated.

            I am constantly getting calls from Kotak for recovery of loan bearing no.6115375 taken from CITICORP Finance (India) Limited - which was not even taken by me.

            I gather the confusion is because of similar name and DOB.

            However, in spite of explaining the same to Kotak multiple times, sending my KYC to rard.[protected]@kotatk.com (SR # 1-[protected]), no action is taken yet and i still get collection calls from Kotak.

            get your records straight guys!

                  Dear Sirs,

                  Apologies for contacting you for a routine matter but due to complaining reasons I am forced to contact you.

                  I need your immediate intervention either to update my FATCA or allow me to close my account. Since 25th April 2017 I am trying to update FATCA but not able to do so.

                  I was in India during April and had numerous interaction with the branch, Mumbai office / relationship manager but no one informed me about the FATCA requirement, when I tried to open the new FD only than I got to know about the FATCA requirement and since than I am in touch with the Bank but with no solution.

                  I request you to kindly allow me transact online as I need the funds on immediate basis or let me know how I can close the account.

                  Thanks in anticipation.

                  I have also mail at the email id mentioned at this form...reply recived as below:

While opening bank account with kotak mahindra bank, they promised me zero maintenance charge for first year and it has been even mentioned clearly in the application form which they provided to me but I see rs 175 deducted from my bank account for non maintenance of average monthly balance. This looks absurd and they are cheating ....

                    I'm at berlin. My account have in Amritsar mall road branch. There all staff members ignore to my calls nd emails. I want my all money transfer to Deutsche bank. Kotak staff saying me they will transfer my money in 2-3 days but today they get 1 week nd still I never get my money. It's very shameless to Kotak staff when I told them you I never get my money they told me there is branch changed nd staff also changed. Even, I missed my visa extension appointment cause I never get my money in 1 week. I want just want one thing from u pls take any action on that staff. If this thing happened with me maybe there is lots of students came in germany. They will do this with other students. Otherwise, his behaviour also very rude. Thanks you.

Today they called and said that I've been selected and I'll be getting around Rs. 15000/month with all I've been called for an interview on 3rd May, 2017; and they are saying that I'll have pay Rs. 1100/- for an examination after the training...

                      I am not satisfied the services of the bank. I even wrote to the bank about my problems and visited its branch but there is no desired development. Therefore you are requested to close my above mentioned account and deactivate my debit card. I have already destroyed the cheque book provided to me.

                      thanks

                            At the time of KYC done on dtd. 13/04/2017 some human error by your KYC agent "Mr. Dharmendra Patel".
