State Bank of India [SBI] Complaints & Reviews

Respected Sir,

I was moving in and out of State Bank of India, Pattukkottai Branch to open a new Saving Bank A/c in my name. But the bank officials ignored me saying that they will not open new account in the name of the customer in the month of March. They ask me to come and open bank account in the month of April.

Kindly consider my complaint and please order them to open a Saving Bank A/c in my name.

I had Transfered online payment from MY Citibank account to SBI account on 24th Jan'2011 Rs 14500 with the RBI UTR Number CITIN[protected] but still amount is not debited on SBI Account, I called up Citibak phone officer and confimed anount is Transfered sucessfully and told to call back SBI and provide RBI UTR Number, When i called up @ SBI Joina Branch @ [protected] they says they can do anything and they are no aware of any UTR RBI CODE, this is really discusting, if bening a Gov bank can do such then how do we belive others, I want to take up this matter ti any level, since i have a statement of my Citibank which cleatly shows amount has been Transfered...

To,
The Manager,

Dear Sir,
Please note that I had taken a credit card from you most probably in the year 2003. At that time your people had requested me several times to take an SBI Card for free of cost for employees of Life Insurance Corporation Of India. I had no actual need of this type of credit card but your people had argued that if I take the card I will lose nothing but he, being a low income young employee, will be benefited or rewarded from SBI Card and the fact will be one kind of help to him. SBI- State Bank Of India- One of the most reputed brand in India. I agreed to accept a credit card from SBI Card.

I have never used the card, even I have not detached the card from your paper on which you had pasted the card at the time of issuing the card. I had just received the card and kept it to me. At the end of five years when the validity of the first card was over you have sent a fresh card with the same number in the year 2008. I have also kept it to me without detaching from the pasted paper. I have never used the first card as well as the second card and I have never asked any benefit/ reward or any kind of help from you.

But your people had made several phone calls to me to accept various offers. Most of the times they have delivered their lectures in English and in such a rapid speed as if they have fast forwarded the speeches. I am not free in English and Hindi conversation and being a busy man I have never considered those offers and rejected all those offers.

Oneday, in the month of August-2009, one of a private courier has delivered a paper box to my home in absence of me. “Privilege Circle Programme” was written on the box. In the evening, after returning from my office, I made a phone call to your helpline number. I had told them that the box was wrongly delivered to me as because I have never asked for such offer and I want to return that Privilege circle programme box immediately, But your people had roughly answered me that “ You have accepted our offer and you must have to pay for that.” I argued with him and expressed my desire to return the Privilege Circle Programme box as it was but he was not ready to hear any words from me, instead he used rough language and hard pressed me to pay the amount as early as possible. I disagreed to pay anything from my hard earned money. Then your people made several phonecalls and SMSes from various citys like Mumbai, Chennai, Bangalore, Chandigarh, Delhi, Hyderabad etc. etc. except from Kolkata. Then it seemed to me that a group of people are trying to create undue pressure on me for the money. I have tried a lot to make them understand that “ You have dropped a box to my door without my consent and demanding money from me ” , I was not ready to pay that . They have disturbed me a lot. Even they have harassed my family members also. Then after few months they started to call me from your kolkata office in bengali asking a huge amount. I have explained them total fact and requested them to collect the paper box which was kept with me intact for a long time. But your people were only interested to get money, they pressed me hard over telephone. Your Kolkata office then sent a “Muscle Man named Kanchan Neogi” whose Mobile No was [protected] to my residence. In absence of me he threatened my family members and created panic amongst them. Then I received a phonecall from Mr. Neogi. I explained the fact to him. He was too brut to hear me. He threatened me in a very rough language and asked me the money against the Privilege Circle Programme box. Once again I requested your Kolkata office to collect the box. But they disagreed.

Presently at the end of february,2011,the first time I have received a written demand list in which you have demanded Rs-16746.36 and offered an opportunity to settle the demand by paying Rs-8373.18 only and you have also warned me in case of failure you will record the case to “Credit Information Bureau India Ltd. (CIBIL).

I am very much astonished of the fact that SBI, State Bank of India, one of the most reputed brand in India, is trying to gather money from their valued customers by force
selling, by harassing, by undue pressurrising or by hook or cook.

I have never used the card mentioned above, I have not credited any amount from you. All your demands are created only to fetch money from an innocent customer. I am unable to pay any amount from my hard earned money. I am not interested to continue the SBI Card. I am once again requesting you to collect the Privilege circle programme box and close the matter immediately to relieve me from this type of harrasments and confirm me accordingly.

Yours faithfully

I am Uthayakumar from Orathanadu, Thanjavur district, Tamilnadu. My father is a former. Now I am studying B.E 1st year in one of Kings engineering college at Thanjavur. I have applied for a education loan in Orathanad branch of State Bank of India. I am trying since August 2010. I applied education loan after waiting 4-5th month only they open my account. But yet they denied and did not give a proper answer for me. Last five Months every Saturday and also weekday i am going and waiting for few hours about this education loan. They gave some forms and told that you should get sign from all other banks for that don’t have any other loans in other banks. We get sign in all other bank managers and gave to SBI. Then till now they are asking so many questions like that do you have house, land and bond papers and etc.. Then they told that we will come to your home and check everything (house and bond papers details). Till now they didn’t response. What can I do? We are poor family that’s why our problem..

My annual loan amount is Rs.50, 000(Fifty thousands only).but they accept only Rs. 30000. Loan for four Years. Overall loan amount is 200,000(Two Lakes only) for completion of my course.

My education details

12th- 84%
B.E- waiting for 1st semester result (87% cycle test)

Now I have finished 1st semester also.
After then they didn’t response anything.

I lodged a complaint (Case ID=[protected] by e-mail with SBI card authority that two fraudulent transactions were made on my SBI credit card on 7 November 2010. I had to take recourse to e-mail since SBI Helpline stands close on Sunday.On enquiry from it's Helpline on 7 March 2011, I understand that the SBI Credit card authority rejected my complaint without assigning any reasons.

The SBI Card authorrity decision left me poorer by Rs 31, 810/68 since they debited the amount on the strength of direct debit mandate. I started correspondence with the SBI Card authority, and everytime they assured me that my complaint is being considered favourably. Even one Ms Stella assured me favourably over mobile on 4 March 2011, but on 7 March I got a negative reply.

Fact of the case is that on 7 November, some fraudsters carried out two fraudeulent transactions of Rs.4742/37 (Candyland Bedfordshire ZA 700.80 ZAR) and Rs.27,068/31 (Electro Medics Mayfair West 4,000 ZAR). On getting two SMS on my mobile, I tried to contact SBI Helpline but failed because I learnt -Helpline remain non-operative on Sundays. I sent series of e-mails to 'feedback.[protected]@ge.com entreating them to stop payment to fraudsters.

Since then I tried to convince the SBI Credit card that how I (an old man of 78-plus) became a helpless victim of fraudsters, but I failed to move the SBI Credit Card authority. Now I seek your help and guidanace to wriggle out from the unfortunate predicament. Please help me.
