[Resolved]  Punjab National Bank Housing Finance [Pnbhfl] — false agreement - transparency issue

Address:Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, 226001
Website:www.pnbhousing.com

I have been reporting several times an issue related to loan part payment adjustment but it seems that the issue has never been addressed as agreed but was manipulated according the automated rules/instructions setup in system.

Following were the agreement between myself and the sales person from pnb housing. I signed the agreement based on what i have been told but i am getting deferred statement put crossed by the customer care representative when called on toll free number for a detailed information on part payment done recently. Here is what was committed and what went wrong...

What was committed..

1. Rate of interest is 8.35% per annum for the tenure of 240 months.
2. Part payment can be done anytime and is fully free of any pre-payment charges.
3. Part payment should decrease tenure by default and its customer choice if he want to get his emi reduced instead tenure.

What went wrong..

1. Customer service informed that the part payment of rs 50100 is adjusted and emi is decreased to 20500 from 20621. Which is not expected.
2. Rate of interest is fixed for 13 months and then will increase to.25% more which is 8.60 % in total. It was never told to me even before agreement and not at the time of agreement.
3. Tenure should have been reduced but its not reflecting.

Services are very poor. Sr are simply being closed without and resolution. Also i never got call even for confirmation on the agreement as normally we get from other banks.
Staff at lucknow branches are also does not know on how to get this done. They said they will talk to it department and get this corrected but no feedback upto now. Unfortunately i have taken two loans at same branch..
Very disappointing... I am not sure how to escalate now but somehow got to know that i can complain on grievance registration & information database system (Grids).. Not sure on what can be done or any way to change bank.. Probably a balance transfer..??

No one contacted upto now from Lucknow PNB branch. Now they are even not picking up phone. Worst services from PNB housing. There is no response from them even more than 20 communication. I keep on calling sending emails. A case registers when i send email but no response. I have to pay another EMI on 10th march. Not sure what is going to happen. Third class organization.

Please either help me to address the issue and adjust/modify part payment accordingly ie tenure should be reduced. Also EMI on 10th should be based on the adjusted principal with effected tenure.

or please let me know and send the documents required to do balance transfer to some other bank. Also what would be the clear process document needed from your side to help in balance transfer. Ie. any foreclosure statement or report needed?

Please consider this on high priority. Also let me know the escalation matrix to it to next level if it can't be done from your side. I would probably be escalating the matter on Grievance Registration & Information Database System (GRIDS) if I am not getting response on earliest. This is really DISAPPOINTING!!!.

The respective team member mr.yogesh nikum and mr.vivek bajpai have not communicated respective issue and had promised disbursment but nothing was actually fulfilled.
There still no feedback after sending more than 20 communication. Worst services from PNB housing. Fake commitment. Not sure what they are still working with. I did not get any single call even from Lucknow branch.
