Kotak Mahindra Bank Complaints & Reviews

I am getting very abusive calls by the name priyanka +91 [protected] & other number is [protected] related to my credit card. He came to my place and harrased my mother. (Ki mein apka carrer berbad ker dogi, tum jaanti nhi ho mere ko, all this thing) and he even called the police at my place and forcing me to settle card at 30k. I want kotak to take strict action against him and more over i am filing a legal action.

Please terminate this employe priyanka

Thanks & regards

I had salary a/c in ing vysa bank but kotak take over ing vys so my salary a/c transferred to kotak, after some time they started charging for not maintaining balances in a/c so i don't keep balance in kotak a/c and i have a credit card of kotak .
0n 2nd oct. payment a/c was due and there was no balance, so they charged 500 + 75 fine auto debit failure, i complaint about it to credit card executive they said second time will not happen.
in nov. againt on due date they fined 500+ 75 fine and i paid them by webpay, i got msg on 3rd for successful payment but againt on 5 nov. there was fine of 500+ 75 late payment.
I have done major transaction from credit card on EMI OPTION but on 15th nov there was Intt. charged of 5 times total is around rs.500.
I complained about this, i haven't got any response from bank side.
But credit card side they are calling me again and again for payment.
I have complained about this there is no response from bank side and my liability is increasing by day by day.
i said i am paying my amount on time but what is actual liability, i will pay only that much becoz bank is over charging and i have complained about this, they are not responding and that is bank side problem, they are forcing me for full payment.

Hi,

I wanted to close my Kotak Mahindra bank account for past 3 months.
For which, I have written them several emails indicating the same but I did not receive any reply.

Now I got the message that my account balance is negative because I have not used my account. I would like to file a complaint against Kotak Mahindra bank for negligence and charging me for the services that I already informed I don't need.

Best Regards,
Vivek

Hi,

As a routine i was just checking my credit card transactions and found a transaction which was never initiated by me .
This is a total disappointment as the customer is being charged of what he never intended .
The merchant is : www.paytm.in .
Please get back to me asap otherwise i would have to opt for a stringent measure .

Rude lady service manager. We hold a company account with Kotak Bank Nariman Point Mumbai. Since our store is located at Goa Panjim we deposit our store sales at the Kotak MG road Goa Branch. From the day the old notes have been discontinued every bank has put up notices with the regulations/ T&C's for their customers to be updated with the current procedures so that their customers don't suffer but unfortunately the motto of Kotak bank is to ensure that every customer is harrassed to the core they have not even spared senior citizens. Shame on this bank branch. Spoiling the name of the Kotak Brand.

To start with my horrorful experience as usual i went to deposit the store sales & we are accepting 500 & 1000 notes from our guests as modi said that it can be deposited till 30th Dec'2016. I understand that every bank would want to ensure safety of their customer accounts but that does not mean you insult the person at the other end just because he/ she is employee working for the store whose sales he/she comes to deposit on the instructions of the company CEO.

Upon reaching at the cash counter the counter staff tells me i will have to get an authority letter from the CEO to deposit the old notes in company account. Fair enough your bank your rules but where the hell is the notice for the same. Your notice board has numerous notices but why did you not put this notice in bold so that your customers don't face inconvenience. I informed the Counter staff that its not mentioned anywhere & secondly the CEO is out of country. But the staff was rude & ensured that i left unhappy.

2nd experience today(18.11.2016) i went to exchange old notes since we needed change at the store. Again i was harrassed by their grumpy lady service manager. I guess she makes up her mind from home that she will ensure every customer leaves unhappy from her branch, thats her motto in life. I carried my original id proof & i was not given the rightful exchange of money as a common man im entitled to. She & her other 2 men staff ensured they insulted me in front of the whole bank staff even wen i was polite & asking them that where is it mentioned to get a xerox also. I told them will get it today in some time as i have to open the store & we have a company account & i always come here. That bl**dy grumpy women insulted me saying that you dont ahve an account your company has don't teach me how to do our job. Go to other bank & get your work done. Who the Heck is she to talk to anyone like this. Just coz she is working for the Kotak does not mean she will insult anyone. And then another lady staff joins her and says that leave it don't talk to such people. What do you mean by such people? Just coz im an employee of a company your staff thinks that he/she might be a lower staff so they can insult. Im glad i don't have an account with you guys, i was infact planing to open one but you guys need to learn etiquttes & customer services from banks like SBI, CBI, Saraswat & HDFC. Though the women working at these bank of SBI & CBI are old but they have a quality know as customer service & humanity.

Your grumpy manager harrassed a senior citizen man yesterday he was very unhappy & left the bank in silence.

This is what Kotak believes in " we will ensure that you have a unhappy experience with us"

I am getting very abusive calls by the name Amit yadav +[protected] related to my credit card. He came to my place and harrased my father and he even called the police at my place and forcing me to settle card at 30k . By all this happened father got heart attack in evening and your agent came in the afternoon. My father is in hospital and cant even talk just because this amit yadav. I want kotak to take strict action against him and more over i am filing a legal action as father got in this situation. And moreover he forced me to pay 2000rs online and took 2000 cash as well and now not even responding to any call.
I'll definately make sure i'll file legal action to this person and to kotak as well if anything wrong happens to my father.

Hi,

my CRN is 80685339.As per your instructions, I have send a mail to salaryhelpdesk.[protected]@kotak.com with the brief description about my balance deduction issue then mr.kejal jain -Service Manager mailed me with a Account closure form and told me to submit it to the nearest branch, my nearest branch is Chennai velachery so I went there for from submission, but the Wealth assistnace person in that branch doesn't accept my form then she told the same story as negative balance because of non maintenance charge I clear told everything about this uniformed charge(-3959) to the salaryhelpdesk.[protected]@kotak.com after that only the service manager told me to submit a form but in my nearest they never accept the form, and I have informe the same to the salaryhelpdesk.[protected]@kotak.com . what should I do now?, i have done everything properly in my side as citizen .but your bank simply frustrating people by like unwanted travel.
please do the needful.

I am really disappointed by the services offered by the employee of kotak mahindra bank kankurgachi branch. I am staying in delhi and i am in real need of money, my mom who is 65 years old went to the kankurgachi branch with all my kyc documnets and all possible letters that is required to deposit money, still the bank employee refused to take the money as i was not present in the bank. How is it possible on earth for me to go to the bank in kolkata to deposit money on my account and the amount was only 4000rs.

I even signed and wrote an authorization letter and scanned it to my mom so that she do not have to face any difficulties. Your bank and employees of your bank harassed a senior citizen and forced her to leave the bank as i was not present.

Are we heading for a betterment for our country? Is it the way?

This is just an email rather a complaint but trust me i will take you guys real far for this issue unless its not been resolved from your end.

Thanks

Holding a loan against property - ilap14049. Went to somajiguda, hyderabad branch in person and raised a foreclosure request sr#:1-[protected] on oct 29, 2016. They initially sent me someone else's foreclosure statement, corrected it later, but found that they are charging penalty fees which is incorrect. I went again and confirmed with the executive that penalty charges are indeed incorrect. Here starts the cunningness of the bank and their executives, he said you can pay the rest of the amount deducting the wrong penalty charges but i cannot accept a cheque from you since you emi date is nearby (Which was on nov 8th). This is wrong. After that he dint sent me the corrected foreclosure statement. I waited till nov 8th, 2016, but dint received any sms notification of emi deduction which i generally get every time. I had to call them on 10th nov and get confirmation that the emi deduction indeed happened on 8th nov. I called their customer care on nov 10 and they said they will arrange a callback from relationship manager next day since customer care executives don't have access to outstanding balance details. I dint received any call. I called them again and its no use. I was also having conversation over emails. Nearly 5 people replied to my emails but none of them cared to read my query and answer it properly. And they also closed the service request. But i still replied on the same thread and latest reply from them is, "we will revert back to you in 10 working days", this is for letting me know the outstanding balance. The calculation for my outstanding balance is so complex that they need 10 working days. And they say they assure to provide best service to their customers. I already have to pay the day interest from nov 8th to till date and they are asking me to wait for 10 more days. See how reckless they are.

Respected Sir/madam,

Hi my name is wilson antony,

I have opened my kotak salary savings account at 2014 november. My crn is 80685339. I have already send a lot of mail regarding closing my account because of a balance deductions for demat account. If have 10000 rupees simply your bank take 600 aprox as demat charge so i send a mail for closing my account but your representative told me to visit nearest branch for close the account. Now i am in chennai so i visit the velachery branch now they told some non maintenance charges applied to my account if i wnat to close. I have to pay that amount aprox 4000rs. See initially when i open my account from your side you told after 6 month it will automatically become as a zero balance account and they never told about this non maintenance charges. Hope you know the value of money. I am totally frustrated now. Please do the needful kindly close all my accounts in kotak.

Thanks
Wilson antony

Sir,
I am having kotak mahindra bank credit card for the past 10 years.
My crn no. : 23635143 due to security reason i am not giving my credit card number here. Yesterday some one used my card details for 129976.39 in the name of lbealing card pyment. I am actually my credit card has transaction password.. I never shared my card details to any one. Even my wife... Customer care person told that it was used with 16 digit card no. How it is possible.in online billing we must give card no, name of the card holder, expiry date, cvv number finally transaction password. Misusing my card is impossible.
After speaking with customer care yesterday after this, they asked me present dispute form. I presented it. They told it takes 45 days for processing. This is not fair. Its an emergency case know... Now what i am worrying this month 20is billing if that misused amount reflected in my bill.. I couldnt pay..
Kindly do the needful in favor of myself...

Hi,

I am victim of this fraud. It was told that this is zero balance salary account. I don't have to maintain any balance If I don't want to, said by the Sales person. Now inspite my salary getting deposited in this bank account regularly and kept fix deposit with them they are still charging randomly for low balance.

I have recieved a calls from this no. [protected].
But they are calling so many times, using filthy language. Kindly ask them to stop this.
Harassing people is illegal. They are calling some random people that i only know asking them to pay money.
Harassing them also calling them 20 times a third person who is not related to this matter at all is not correct.

I am going to file a police complaint about this.

I hold a NRE account with Kotak Bank (CRN[protected] and have made various transactions through my NRE account.

I was surprised when the mutual fund house demanded that I provide a Debit Certificate from Kotak Bank to prove that the money to fund the MF purchase was paid through NRE account.

On inquiring with the mutual fund house the reason for the odd request I was told that the bank has not provided the information directly to the mutual fund house as happens with other banks.

When I downloaded the account statement and also looked at the previously received statements, I noticed that the account type is not mentioned on the statement.

This is a basic information which should have been provided by the bank on the account statement.

I raised the matter with the bank and they have closed it without providing me a resolution.

This has not happened the first time, there are many previous occasions where I have seen this kind of behaviour from the support office.

I have taken up with the local office many time as well as online but to no avail.

I have written this to the top management on 29th Oct 2016 but have not received any feedback.
