State Bank of India [SBI] Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir,
On request for issue of cheque book, Rs. 57.50 were deducted on 4th Dec'16, but cheque book was not sent by the Bank. After writing mail, once the reply came that complaint resolved then again complaint was lodged then Cheque book was sent at late evening. And after return they called over phone to collect ch book from branch. All done but now on 18th Jan a charge of Rs. 115 is being imposed for undelivered cheque book. What is it? Bank failed in timely delivery of ch. book, timely giving call and now charging for undelivery. Is it only to earn money by bank on how many counts. Why is there any such rule permitted by central bank or GOI.
I will take up the matter upto highest level till I recieve proper reply and not mare that complainet resolved.
Thanking you

DEAR SIR OR MADAM,
I would like to inform u that, i am a sbi account holder(my account no-[protected]), my home branch at Ashokenagar WEST BENGAL.On 19.01.2017 i have tried to withdrawal RS.10000 from ICICI BANK ATM(park street chowringhee mansion) but i have not received the mentioned amount, i received the slip from the ATM machine mention that THE TRANSACTION DECLINED UNABLE TO PROCESS, after a few minutes i have received a cash withdrawal massage through sbi bank.i talk to sbi customer care with my problem but the executive did not received any complain from my side.the executive told me that the problem will be solve in 48hrs.But the problem should not resolved till now.
kindly solve my problem as soon as possible.

Dear sir, last 2 days ago, when I collect money from CBI Atm, but not received money and debited from my account, rs 4000, so please refund that amount immediately, I want money right now.
I also called in your customer care executive, please see that complain. I has been waiting from last 3days.
From
MANNA DEB,
SBI debit card,
Silchar, Tarapur branch.
Assam.

On 5th of Jan, I made a transaction of INR 50, 000 through my Debit Card at Motherhood Hospital at 9.00 am. The transaction declined, however the money was debited from my account.
I assumed it would revert in a few mins like it does in ICICI or other banks. Apparently, It didn't and I tried reaching out to the Customer care. First call I spent 20 mins on the IVR & the call got disconnected the moment the agent picked up the phone. I tried calling them again & finally the call was answered again. The executive who picked was curt & mentioned, we cant do anything, you'll have to wait 7-45 days. With the frustration, I asked to get the supervisor on the phone, but my fate he was as curt as the executive was. With no options, I used credit card & thought the payment would be reverted within 7 days.

Its 16th day today & I still dont have the money credited to my account. My question here is, why is that when other banks can revert the payment within secs that SBI cannot? The Customer care is the worst of all anyway. I need the money to be credited to my account as soon as possible. Never am I going to bank with you guys & I'll have my friends & family to immediately move to other banks.

I am frustrated & very very disappointed with this act of the bank. If it was a smaller amount, I would've been fine. However, 50, 000 is not & the worst part is, looks like I need to follow-up with the bank after 45 days too. I need the question to be answered, not just mention "We'll informed the POS Merchant to increase the Priority"

I am a retired employee of the State Bank of India (P.F. Index No. 1806688) and a member of the State Bank of India(SBI)’s scheme “SBI EMPLOYEES’ MUTUAL WELFARE SCHEME” (SBI EMWS), (Member No. PAT/BGP/P/788) the benefits of which have been denied to me on the false and flimsy ground of non making of required contributions though I have made contributions from Sep.1986 (monthly) to Mar.2014 (Annual) and provided to SBI undisputed evidence of which by way of SALARY SLIP for Mar.2014(please see attachement -I) issued by SBI. SBI has thus committed offense under sections 409(criminal breach of trust by banker), 477A(falsification of accounts) and 420(cheating) of the Indian Penal Code.

2. I, vide my Regd. Letter dated 25.10.2016 (please see attachement-II) under section 6(1)(a) of the RTI Act 2005, with requisite fee; had requested the CPIO, i.e. Dy Gen Manager(B&O), SBI, Ranchi A.O.(Patna Circle) to please provide me certain information as detailed in my requisition dated 25.10.2016. But the said CPIO did not provide me the required information and is quite silent despite reminders.

3. As no response is forthcoming from the CPIO, I preferred an appeal vide my Regd. Letter dated 10/12 Dec.2016 (please see attachement-III) to the Appellate Authority, i.e. General Manager, Network-II, SBI, Patna Circle, but to my utter dismay; he is also oppressive and silent in the matter; even after passing away of the statutory time limit as prescribed in various sections of the RTI Act, 2005.

4. I, therefore, request you to please INSTRUCT, (under advice to me); the recalcitrant & beleaguered officials of the SBI named above to make available me the following information as requisitioned vide my letter dated 25.10.2016 to the beleaguered CPIO, without further loss of time. You are requested to KINDLY also arrange to pass suitable orders to provide me other reliefs in the matter as stated hereinafter.

INFORMATION REQUIRED

1 (a) where the various deductions from my salary towards SBI EMWS(which have not been accounted for in SBI’s records) gone,
(b) what enquiries were made from the respective branches/offices to establish genuineness of my claim (by referring their establishment & deduction register and records relating to Branch Clearing General A/c./IBTS a/c & HRMS system),
(c) where the amount deducted by HRMS for which undisputed evidence has been provided gone as this is also not accounted for in the Bank’s records and
(d) after retirement from the service of the SBI and at this juncture of my old age, am I responsible to run here and there (at my cost) to search out my contributions made to the SBI EMWS; and if not; who is required & responsible to do all this and what action did he/she take to search out my contributions.

2. (a) whether the provisions of the SBI EMWS permit that deductions towards SBI EMWS during some/various months may be skipped?
(b) if yes, at whose instructions this may be done and if not, how deductions during some/various months were not made? Is it at the sweet will of the concerned branch/office to make or skip the deductions towards the membership of SBI EMWS even if salary & allowances were being paid to me regularly,
(c) if in fact, these deductions were not made; at whose instructions these were not made and at whose instructions these were restarted
(d) how HRMS was advised to effect deduction towards my membership of SBI EMWS and where my monies deducted by HRMS gone and
(e) do the provisions of SBI EMWS allow the SBI to ask the member of the SBI EMWS to contribute left out contributions after retirement in lump sum. If yes, that provision may kindly be brought to my notice. If not, how the SBI Ranchi A.O. vide letter No. DGM(B&O)/HR/PM/2777 dated 10.12.2015 asked me to pay the left out contributions (as per their version) to get the benefits of the SBI EMWS.

3. Who will bear the avoidable expenditure (Rs. 1, 300/- approx) incurred by me to get my rightful & due money refunded by the SBI and to get the benefits of the SBI EMWS, as also who will bear the avoidable loss of interest of about Rs.800/- on the refunded amount.

4. Has the SBI in the past also declined the requests of other retired employees to grant them the benefits of SBI EMWS and refund the amount of their contributions to SBI EMWS?. If yes, the no. of such ill fated employees and the reasons for declining their claims may please also be advised.

RELIEFS REQUIRED

1) The beleaguered Appellate Authority & CPIO should be directed to provide me the information desired vide my letter dated 25.10.2016 addressed to the CPIO(copy placed at Annexure-II) without further loss of time,
2) The beleaguered Appellate Authority & CPIO should be directed to reimburse me the avoidable expenses of Rs.1300/-(approx) incurred by me in this matter togetherwith appropriate amount of compensation for inconvenience, harassment and mental torture caused to me in this matter due to inaction on the part of the Appellate Authority and CPIO, and
3) Any other relief that the Hon’ble Banking Ombudsman may deem fit in this matter.

I once again request you to KINDLY instruct to State Bank of India to provide me the required information without further loss of time to enable me to carry forward this matter of defalcation & misappropriation of my monies by SBI to a logical conclusion.

Please treat it as urgent and acknowledge receipt. I trust, you will please help me and not disappoint me. Thanking you.

Yours faithfully
Dhrub Kumar Phitkariwala

Hi Team,

on 19th January i made 3 transaction of Rs 6000, 4000 and 4000 from Indian Overseas Bank atm located in VFS Global Services Bangalore building. every time money was deducted from my account but no cash was dispensed. Even the bigger problem is that the daily withdrawal limit on 19th Jan 2017 was 10000 Rs so how the bank allowed to deduct Rs 14000 from my account for these transaction made on 19th Jan 2017.See the transaction detail in the attachment. Please request you to process my grievance and help me to get my money back in the account. Find the account detail in the attachment and below.

Sir,
I sent Rs.28, 000/- from my SBI A/c no. [protected] in SBI Branch PBB, Aashiyana, Lucknow IFSC Code SBIN0016791 in favour of Sh. Adarsh Kumar, A/c no. [protected] in Oriental Bank of Commerce, Subhash Marg, Lucknow Branch IFSC Code ORBC0105191 on 17/11/2016. The amount has yet not been remitted into account of SH. Adarsh Kumar. The SBI has informed that the transaction has already been credited to the beneficiary account on 17/11/2016 at 11:16 as confirmed by OBC (Copy of communication attached). The OBC Bank manager is denying receipt of the money and has asked to approach you. Please resolve the issue immediately.

Respected Sir, I am very regret to inform you that money deducted (as SBI, general Ins House on 17Dec’16) from my account without my consent. From last one month I am trying to resolve this particular matter in concern SBI branch (code-6701, IGC, Kalyani, WB) but I have been harassed without any result. The bank person neither given any document of general Ins house nor telling truth, only silently money was taken away as if a stolen case. It is great question on integrity of that branch. Bank persons are behaving in such a way so that reputation of SBI shall definitely go down. However, my deducted premium amount should be returned within a week which was promised by those bank persons but never fruitful. It is my earnest request to you, kindly look into the matter very seriously and urgently and Return back that amount immediately. Otherwise, these harassment shall force me to represent it in CPGRAMS and all negative impression shall be created by using facebook, twitter, all groups of Whatsup, PMO office, RBI office and different other social media in great ways. Lot many friends, relatives, neighbor, all member of LION club are getting together on this serious issue. My relative (advocate) may take this case to consumer forum if it is not solved urgently. Try to solve this burning problem for maintaining the SBI reputation. Requesting for the same time and again.
Dr Champak Bhakat, (A/C-[protected]), WB,

I made my transaction on 20th january 2017 at 22:16 pm I paid the application form fees for the renewal of my passport but it is showing that the transaction has been failed I made the payment from my debit card o[censored]CO bank of amount of 1512.00 THe amount has been successfully deducted and i have recieved the confirmation message Its my humble request to kindly refund my amount as soon as possible so that i can proceed further

I have used my PNB debit card at SBI ATM (ATM No. SIBW[protected], Sanjay Market, Rajajipuram, Lucknow for withdrawl of Rs 2000/- on 19.12.2016 but the transaction was failed. But, I got a message that the amount in my account was deducted. With a gap of 3minutes I used the card for the second time. Then, the transaction was successful. I immediately filed a complaint at Customer care of PNB, but I received a reply that the complaint is rejected due to successful transaction (as per the details received from SBI). Then I personally visited the SBI Branch at Rajajipuram, Lucknow, but they refused to accept my complaint letter and I was told to contact to PNB Branch. On my visit to PNB Branch, I am suggested to contact SBI Branch as the ATM pertains to SBI Bank.

Sir As everybody is aware that due to PM Modi's Demonetization drive, only 2500/- can be withdrawn on one ATM card in a single day, hence how can I withdraw 4000/- in a single day.

Hence the concerned is requested to look into the matter and redress my complaint
