Punjab National Bank [PNB] Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir

On 31st of december i have withdrawn Rs2000 from my pnb account no. [protected] from the icici bank atm in shaibabad dist. gaziabad.

at the time of first transaction the result shown that the transaction declined I tried second time and able to do the withdrwal sucessfully.

but when i checked the balance second day it is showing that the 4000rs is being withdrawn on 31st dec were has on 31st dec second time when i sucessfully withdrawn the amount that time it is showing that only 2000rs is being withdrawn.

for the same i have also posted the complain online to all the authorities of PNB bank even i done the written complain in the branch also but till date i havent received my amount.

the officers in pnb never replying properly its seem that they are an goverment employee and they dont have to worry about anything any action

if this is the case i think it is the worth to open the account with the nationalized bank.

now i am writing to you having a faith that will get a response from your side on ASAP basis.

Dear Sir,

I am residing in DDR Falats, Madangir, Near Khanpur. I am working in Tata Consultancy Services and deputed to IGNOU, Maidan Garhi. I wanted to have a saving account in PNB so I went to its IGNOU branch. I had all the requirement documents(with duly filled application form) whose details are as follows:
1. Passport(For parmanent address proof of Rajasthan).
2. Rent Agreement.
3. Driving Licence of landlord(For Signature Verification).
4. TCS ID card.

Mr. Rajkumar(an employee at PNB,IGNOU Branch) verified all the documents(I waited at his seat for 2 hours for this to be done). But while seeing that I am residing in Madangir he refused to open the account and told me that we can not open your account here as our auditor(I.S. Behana) permit us to open the account only of the persons who are either residing near IGNOU or working in IGNOU.

He told me to show a proof for working in IGNOU.

I suppose that being an Indian citizen and having all the required documents I should be allowed to have a bank account at any place of my choice.

Could you please tell me that is it required to show the proof for working in IGNOU?
Please reply at the earliest.

Sub: Request to Refund an Extra Debit of amount Rs.1520/- with interest which were not processed from ATM of Corporation Bank at Kundli (Soenpat) and same debited to my account by Rs.1520/- on 24th November 2009

Dear Sir,

I, am operating my Saving Account with your bank under account No.152700 [protected]. A Debit Card was issued from Hari Nagar branch having No.[protected] to facilitate cash withdrawals from ATM’s on demand.

On 24th November 2009 we approached Corporation Bank ATM at Kundli, Sonepat(HR) for withdrawal of Cash Rs.1500/- while we were processing the command and feed all the entries, out of sudden the Electricity went off and money could come out from valet of ATM Machine, after an hours wait, when there was no sign of resumption of Electricity I. Left the ATM site.

I, came to surprise when I, checked the Balance with by Bank account, shockingly an amount of Rs.1520/- was debited to my account, which I did not get from ATM on failure of ATM Machine. How this could happen in absence of complete process of cash withdrawal.

In this connection on very next day I, lodged the complaint at PNB Rajokri Branch and hot listed the above Card under Complaint Number 22189887 same time matter reported to the Card Division on Toll Free Number which was attend by Deepak where a complaint Number 22190308 given to me. When the complaint was lodged, it was assured that we will get refund within 8-10 days, right now 2-3 months passed there is sign of hope and no any communication received from any sources.

It is requested that kindly refund my entire amount of Rs.1500/- with due interest, which was wrongly debited to my account for no cause.

Please confirm action taken in this regard.

Thanking you in anticipations.

Yours truly,

I am a Punjab National Bank Customer.
I use Internet Banking.
I located 2 bugs in Finacle software:

Bug 1:
On the website, I requested the statement between 2 dates (01/03/2010 to 24/03/2010).
The statement provided in XLS sheet format was from 09/03/2009 to 16/01/2010.
I've no idea where the mistake was.
I tried this 2-3 times, but the same results.

Bug 2:
I have an OD account. The software was not charging any interest on the OD account for last 2 years.


I feel that Finacle (by Infosys) is backbone of Indian banking industry. Such bugs are painful.

waiting for ur kind attention,

Dear Sir,
This is to inform you that i went to PNB (Khair Nagar Branch, Meerut) to make a draft for my admission brochure of a MBA college, i landed there around 3:45pm,and stand in the queue. But when my number came it was 4:05pm in clock and cashier refuse to take my voucher, i requested him but he denied. So, i approached to the branch manager and requested a lot, but he also denied. Then when i ask for clarification about the working he asked me to give me in written. When i give him in written, then he replied in a very ambiguous way and awkwardly. I am attaching my complaint letter and his reply with this complaint.
Kindly look into this matter why such nationalized banks are doing whatever they want and what action can be taken against the particular Branch Manager to set the example for other nationalized banks.

Dear Sir,

Sub: - Indifferent Attitude of Branch Staff of Your Beawar Branch


It is to bring it in kind notice that I am an old customer of your bank having Saving Bank account no.4197 ([protected]) since 2003. My son Anirudhwas also an old customer of the bank having his Saving Bank account no.3766 ([protected]) since 2001.During his posting at Beawar he opened a PPF account no. 1029 with your Bank’s Branch.

It is very sad to inform that on 07.12.2009 Anirudh expired.

I therefore requested your Beawar Branch to close the PPF account and remit the proceeds with your Dher Ke Balajee Branch Jaipur where I am having my SB account no.[protected]. A letter for this was sent to your Beawar branch (Copy Enclosed) .

In return I received a letter from your Branch that I have to come personally in the branch to complete the formalities (filling Withdrawal form). This was confirmed by the Branch Manger over telephone also when I ensured whether they have received my letter or not.
To day I personally step in the Branch and asked for the same.
I was asked by the accountant that I have to complete the Claim form and get it verified by any two customers of the branch known to me. Or, to get it verified by 1ST class magistrate/ Gazetted officer.

In turn I told them if this was to be done you should have sent this form to me along with the letter; any how I am the old customer of the Bank and you have my signatures on record which can be verified from the same. I showed my PAN Card as well as my Residence Proof for their satisfaction, but they were reluctant for the same. I then contacted the Branch Head he also told the same. You will realise that
How a person who resides outside Beawar can get all such formalities completed. Moreover I was not interested in taking Cash Payment.
In case the Branch Officials have acted with the right approach this question would have not arrived and I could have presented the compete papers. I reside at Jaipur and getting Two Branch witness was not possible for me or to get the signature of 1st Class magistrate within banking hour was also an uphill task.

You will agree that any person serving at Beawar may come from any station in India and can have an account, and any misshaping may take place under such circumstances what should be the best remedy to settle down the claim be adopted by the Branch rather harrsing the person as it was done to me.

Besides this I observe following major discrepancies which are the VOILATION OF RBI GUIDELINES.
1. None of the staff member including Branch Head was having ID CARD.
2. There was no address displayed on the Board to lodge the Complaint.
3. Very surprisingly Branch address was not displayed nor the telephone nos. were written, even the Branch letter head / Envelope has the same.

WHY THIS IRREGULERITY HAS NOT BEEN NOTICED BY ANY SENIOUR OFFICIALS OF THE BANK DURING THEIR VISIT OR IT WAS MANAGED.
This is to advise you that when the treatment of the staff (Including Chief Manger) towards old customers is so rude and non cooperative how one new customer can be treated you are the best judge.

Hope you will pay an attention to my latter

Thanking you

Yours faithfully

Sir,
I have an account in PNB Kichha, Distt. Udham Singh Nagar.The account no. is [protected] and is availing the ATM card facility which is provided from the branch.

Sir, on 25-May-2009 at 9:40 PM I tried to withdraw Rs. 2000/- from the SBI ATM, Nainital but I didn't get the cash however the amount was debited from my account. On very next day I registered my complaint at PNB mother branch Kichha Distt. Udham Singh Nagar and they assured me that you will get the money within a week. And then after 1 and a half month they gave me the PNB toll free number to which I again registerd my complaint. The complaint no is 18716052.
But I didn't get any amount to till date though they are regularly assuring me.

Kindly take some necessary action to return my amount.

Thanks and regards,
