There is no proper response from the bank and the amount is not refunded till now.

I have a Home Loan Account with ING Vysya HL[protected] for past 6 years now changed to Kotak Mahindra IHL102614.

I am out of India and I have been trying to update my Email ID for the past 5 months. I have written about 30 mails, several calls and couriered mentioned documents to mentioned address twice.

Whenever I send a mail for updates a new customer care person replies to visit branch or send documents to some other new address.

i had a dedicated personal finance officer during ING Vysya and was connecting to them without any problem from any email id.

Below are few of the service Requests created just to update Email Id

Now we are following up since 30th may 2016 and we are been told that ur money is in bank suspense account when new account will be created tat time u will see the amt till tat time u have to wait

I applied for a personal loan, after six months i wanted to close the loan, when i was informed the term has changed to 1 year lock in period. No intimation sent to me.
After 1 year i did contact to get pre closure quote and was advised to write to service. [protected]@kotak.com.
I did write to them along with the previous discussion. There was no response, hence i did call the customer service desk, when i was surprised to lean that my email address was changed.
I was informed to visit a branch and submit change of details form, to receive a response.
When i did question as to why my personal details were changed, there was no answer.
I requested for a supervisor, as usual they were busy and a call back was arranged with 48 hours, which i havent yet received even after 10 days.
I received a call from closure team to verify if a request was sent by me, when again i was informed about a 3rd email id belonging to an unknown person registered on my account.
I have not yet received any response nor a resolution.
Now as i cancelled my ecs they are charging me unwanted fees and threatening to report as a defaulter.
I need this resolved as it has cause me monetary and mental torture.

Hi,

I just wanted to make the people aware about KOTAK bank and their services.

I have savings account in Kotak (earlier ING vysya), Koramangala branch.

I have tried withdrawing 1000 rupees using my ING vysya debit card in Karnataka Bank ATM on 06th May 2016 08:38 PM. Money debited from my account, but transaction timed out. I have waited for 7 working days, but amount is not yet credited back to my account.

On 16 May 2016 I visited Koramangala branch personally. They gave me 2 toll free numbers.I tried reaching both numbers[protected] and[protected], but no luck. Either number is busy or no one is picking my call.

But finally I made it after 2 days. Somebody from customer care picked up my call and raised an SR-1-[protected] and they told me to wait for 7 working days. The surprising part is if the complaint is invalid, then I will be charge 30 US dollars penalty. :D... Forget about that. After 7 working days, again they said wait for 48 working hours. On 2-June they are saying AS SOON AS POSSIBLE we will credit your money. There is no option to escalate the SR.

Worst banking service. Either KOTAK is unfit for banking or they are paying for some useless people. Whatever it is, customer has to suffer.

Took a loan from Kotak Bank on Jan 2016, Below are the 2 complaints
Raised the same complaint with Customer care for which no response received and closed the request without informing, Upon multiple follow ups as well they didn't provide any resolution (Previous Complaint number: Number: 1/[protected] and Current complaint number: 1-[protected])

A) Initially agreed to provide loan for 4 years tenor however they provided for 5 years without informing of the increased in the tenor and disperse the amount. Upon checking they confirmed they will correct it but till date they have not corrected it

B) Bank has deducted all the Processing fees and documentation fees however they have deducted extra 3999/- Rs for which they don't have any description and reason why they deducted.

For both issues complaint raised but no response from past 4 Months (Raised complaint on Feb 2016 and again new one today)

I am Deepak sharma, I have applied balance transfer (personnel Loan) from HDFC bank to Kotak Mahindra. My loan Application no is 00438723, loan amount Rs. 404371 for 24 months.
I got approval letter on 02nd may. In which I found that my rate of interest is 12.5 %. Earlier Bank person were discussing for 11.5% rate of interest.

On 04 May 2016 i have mail this to 'service.[protected]@kotak.com' to cancel my loan request and they reply that they that are looking into the said matter and shall revert back to you within 15 working days.
And now on 27.may.2016 they transfer the amount in my account with out any information. Now i dont need any loan.

I really fell unhappy with your services, due to your many charges without any prior notice like tbms/pcd charges are applied in my account without prior information. At the time of opening account they informed me that it is a salary account hence zero balance acoount. The most surprising thing is that i was never informed about this. No email, no phone call no text message. Such a great customer service. After spending hours of discussion with customer care am still charged. This is clear unjustice with the customers. We the customers are depositing our hard earned money in banks to keep it safe and bank itself is eating away our money.

Hi,
I purchased the om kotak insurance policy (149611) money back policy.
After 10 years when the term completed they provided the money, however there was no bonus given.

As per the agent and policy i was entitled for bonus after 10 year, see attached policy document.
I did follow up with them for months and there was no response.
Kindly help me to get my bonus.

I again waited till today dated 24-May-2016 to get any fruitful answer, but when i called up in Kotak bank Customer care department the executive was so pathetic she doesnt know how to speak. She speak very rudely that we dont know your status as loan account has not been created.

First of all i want to ask kotak bank if you want to waste our time and energy and money why you guys have collected my documents?
Second till date why loan account or any kind of account has not been created in your system?
Third if you say we are doing verfication first than why you havent done any verfication of mine or mine documents?
If you have done the verfication then why account has been not been created and where is my verfication report?
If you have verfication report than why guys have not shown curtesy to call and inform me the status?

Because of Kotak mahindra bank i lost the offer of getting loan from other bank.

Now tell me what i should do i required money to make the repayment of other loans. who will give me loan now due to your mistake,

ONE IMPORTANT POINT:- EDUCATE & GIVE TRAINING TO YOUR CUSTOMER CARE STAFF... THEY DONT KNOW HOW TO BEHAVE WITH CUSTOMER.
