SBI Sec 62 does not value the time of the customers, its ATM hardly works, it has single counter for cash depossit , draft, etc while others are chit chatting, further its network once gone taks 2 hours to come back. all counters are never open till 10.45 am. The hawaldar is an instructor who has got all liberty to misbehave. It is a shame for us to have an account in that branch. Please change the manager . save us from this sbi sec 62 named torture.

Whenever i go and check with them they have just one statement to give that nothing can be done from here (allahabad) you go and check with mumbai head office soo i have already spoken to the head CRm Mr. Karthikeyan Nair in mumbai Office too but till now no satisfactory response ..... being a physically unfit person i am not able to go behind all your concerned personnel and branches..so finally i thought to write this to you directly..i hope you will surely help me in getting my money back.

As you can easily understand that for A government Employee how much importance one month salary has in his financial life .i am in totally dark that what i should do. i am in need of that money In coming November i have my daughter's marriage so i was saving all my hard earned money so will you sit quiet if anyone takes away your hard earned money like this.

I have applied to get online transaction rights on my account,the request was made 2 weeks back ,i have called 2 times to Branch manager ,she said we have done now ,please check on next day, but still it is deactivated.

I am totally frustrated with this Branch of SBI VIMANAGAR pune (Maharastra). Will definetly close this account.

Take appropriete action so that they can serve better in future.Because i saw on saturday most of their staff were on holiday and there were big crowd in bank.People were shouting on manager as she was confused whom to listen first.

Sir,
I had applied for Nano car through State Bank of India, Main Branch, Parliament Street, New Delhi -110001 as TATA tieup with SBI. I have been allotted Nano through draw and consulted SBI Main Branch for car loan. After so many efforts they had filled up my form of car loan on 22 July, 2009 with so many formalities they had charged another Rs. 3000 extra. After two month later they have sanctioned my loan of Rs. 1,40,000 vide latter no RACPC/CL/5678 Dated 17/09/2009. As per their direction I visited Main Branch with this latter but they are again sending me here and there like go to 8th floor and they are sending me back to mezzanine floor saying that they are not dealing with nano car loan finance. I am really very depressed with their attitude and thinking about how a big company like TATA has collaborated with SBI. It’s a matter of grate regret that Bank like SBI is harassing their customers a lot.

I used CANARA BANK ATM at Sector-12,Dwarka on 20-Aug-2009 for withdrawal of Rs.4000/-. The money was not dispensed,but deducted from the account (SBI A/C NO. [protected]). I complained to SBI online (Complaint Ticket No.- CC[protected] dtd. 20-Aug-2009) and then in written on 27-Aug-2009 in the branch. Till date no response has come. The amount has NOT been credited in my account yet. I put the same complaint to the OMBUDSMAN online on 24-Sept-2009.

Plz look into the matter and get the amount deposited in my account at the earliest.

I am holding an A/C No- SB[protected] in Badarpur Thermal Power Stn Branch (10447) and had applied for a cheque book in the prescribed format and submitted in the above mentioned branch about 20 days back, but till date I have not received the cheque book. This most unexpected and inordinate delay is preventing me in making the payments on time as a result of which I have to pay penalties/ late payment fees for no fault of mine.Being a premier nationalised bank of our country, I request you to kindly look into the matter urgently and improve your services to your customers.

Sub: Dishonoring of the Drafts Issued by you.
Ref: S/B AC No [protected]

Respected Sir.

This is to bring to your notice that, I undersigned, on 21st July 2009 had drawn Drafts from your bank worth USD 14000 in the name of Georgia Tech University & Another Draft worth USD 1000 in favor of Pradnyesh Gore on 23 rd June 2009.

The first Draft was to pay the College Fees of 1ST Semester of the University of Georgia Tech at Atalanta, USA. Where my son Secured Admission to Pursue MS Degree.

The II nd Draft was for his Daily expenditures The Draft worth USD 1000 was deposited & Dishonored Two Times & my son suffered short of funds for his food
& Basic needs. In spite of these your own Bank (Counterpart in New York) did not informed you about the confusion.

The Draft o[censored]SD 14000 was also deposited in the University of Georgia Tech to meet the Fees. This draft also got Dishonored for Two Times.( Proof Attached)

As mentioned above your own Bank (Counterpart in New York) did not inform you about the confusion.

As a Consequence on 20th July09, Thursday (in the Evening at 9.00 PM IST)my son was asked by the university to pay the Fees Immediately within 24 Hours failing
Which the Admission would be CANCELLED ( Automatically VISA Will get Cancelled
And He could have been deported)


Page 1 of Pages 3






Obviously he became worried & so did I. So both My son at USA & Me in India Mumbai were desperate to raise money & send it to USA within Few hours

My son from USA called his all Indian friends & class mates within USA & His Friends in India, many times by International Calls to raise the Funds.

Similarly myself & my Wife called all our friends & colleagues at Different Parts o[censored]SA to get the help o[censored]SD 14000 to pay the fees by any means.

After struggling for 7/8 Hours, in India & Abroad in USA. An unknown, Person. Brother of My son’s friend settled in Ohio. USA Mr. Ravi Ranganathan, agreed to pay
USD 14000. To the University of Georgia via Credit Card.

Service Charges o[censored]SD 374 was levied for the transfer of Fund (Proof Attached)
& USD 20 were charged for the “transfer of money” from India to Ohio, USA
While repaying

This Incidence had put lot of Psychological Trauma to Our Young Son staying alone in USA who is a new student in the University o[censored]SA

This had also created lot of Tension, Pressure on us here in India which would have led to any Physiological consequences

This all sufferings was only due to a mistake on the part of your staff, to not to
Intimate the concerned Bank (which is accepted by your staff, and also given us an apology letter for the same).

The losses that we suffered on the Psychological plane are never recoverable. But at least the monitory Charges need to be recovered from your Bank as they are sheer Burdon on us due to your negligence & irresponsible, carelessness on your part.

For almost 30 Days no Intimation was exchanged from both of your Branches
Andheri Branch & New York Branch about dishonoring of the Drafts. It shows
The lethargy of the State Bank of India & New York on the International Banking




Page 2 of Pages 3






Thus we claim fallowing recovery from your bank as a compensation for what
We have spent from our pocket.


1) The Service Charges on Money Transferred USD 374
2) Charges for Transfer of Money USD 020
(Charged at Ohio.)
3) The Telephone Bills of My son
(Calling India many Times) USD 100 (No proof)
4) The Telephone Bills of Mine calling various
People from India to USA USD 200
(No Proof as called from Various Telephone Booths)

TOTAL USD 694


The compensation we are demanding is the factual expenditures incurred
For which you should give us in writing in advance that you will not spoil our
Credit Value.

You also should not inform to any of Indian Banking Organization like CIBIL or any other Organisation for the CREDIT LOSSES”,

Please reimburse the amount for the losses as quickly as possible so that we are not forced to take any further action like approaching “bankingombudsman.co”
& “Consumer Guidance Court” etc for the proper justice.

Thanking you
Yours Truly

SATEESH GORE
