Dear Himanshu

This website guides you regarding the process to be adopted for resolution of your grievance. In the instant case, it seems your father must have divulged the crucial details of his account, including the debit card, related PIN etc, which facilitated the fraudster to siphon off the amount. Please mail your complaint to the management of the bank, if the manager of the home branch is not responding to your grievance.

1.    Go to your Bank’s website and search for grievance redressal (or similar name) button and submit your complaint online.

2.    If you do not receive any reply / satisfactory reply within 10 days, lodge your complaint with the Nodal officer of the Bank (either through email or letter)

3.    If you do not receive any reply / satisfactory reply within 10 days from the Nodal officer, lodge your complaint with the Principal Nodal officer of the Bank (either through email or letter)

4.     If you are still not satisfied with the reply / do not receive reply from the Principal Nodal officer within 10 days, lodge your complaint with the Banking Ombudsman (either through letter or email)
