| Suresha Akkalareddy338 days ago It is better to remove all these incompetent bank employees. My experience with these government banks is disgusting. They lack passion to excel,mostly lazy people. Some exceptions, they are highly efficient. From 25 years of experience I have used services of many private sector and government banks. With very bad experience from all the government banks I have closed all my accounts with them. My bad experience with Indian bank is I have closed my loan taken from them 5years back and ank has issued letter for the same. But even today also the is reflecting in CIBIL despite repeated requests they have not corrected their mistake. This just one example of how their efficiency is. |
