GRIEVANCES REDRESSAL MECHANISM

For attending to customers’ grievances an exclusive Customer Grievance Redressal Cell attached to Central Inspection Department at Head Office has been set up to monitor the redressal of complaints received from the customers. The Department is headed by a General Manager who is the Nodal Officer for Public Grievances. We have Customer Grievance Redressal Sections headed by Regional Managers at all our 20 Regions.

Customer Meet is conducted by the Bank on 15th of every month (next working day, if it happens to be Saturday or Holiday).The customers of the Bank can meet the branch head, executives of the bank without any prior appointment and discuss issues relating to their accounts/banking transactions etc.

Customers of the Bank may meet the Branch Manager in case of any complaint for immediate redressal. If the complaint is not redressed to the satisfaction of the customer, the matter may be taken up with the Regional Manager concerned.

If the customer still feels unsatisfied with the responses received, he can address his complaint to the Bank’s Nodal Officer designated to deal with customer complaints/grievances giving full details of the case.

After exhausting all the above machinery/channels, if the customer is not satisfied, he may write to the Chairman & Managing Director of the Bank and even after this, not satisfied he is free to take recourse to the following:
  1. Directorate of Public Grievances, Government of India , Cabinet Secretariat Sansad Marg, NEW DELHI -110 001.
  2. The Banking Ombudsman located in State capitals under the Banking Ombudsman Scheme- 2006.
  3. The District Consumer Forums under Consumer Protection Act. 1985.
Anonymous complaints will not be entertained.
