1. Salary linked zero balance account. reqd – salary to be credited online every month.
2. non-salary linked zero bal a/c.

I opened ICICI Bank salary account 17 years back and salary credited for 1 year only, when I inquired earlier with bank they also don’t have clue to maintain 10K balance or not, but after average balance display feature I can see average balance to be maintained as 0 in my account.

I have icici silver saving account with zero MAB

I went yesterday to deposit 5000 in my account and i was charged 177rs for it
If we dont keep min balance we are charged 800
So if we deposit we are charged 150
to withdraw we are charged 125
If their atm doesnt work we are charged (posdec charges 27 per transaction if u try to withdraw but atm fails to give)
So this is the new generation bank
Well u know one thing,
My father opened a icici bank account 5 years back with 25000 mab
He never knew about this condition, he didnt keep such balance in the bank account and he was never familiar with banking.
One day he used to have a lakh rs balance and other day he uses all of it
So he never knew about any charges
When after 2-3 years i saw his statement i found 15000rs cut in the name of MAB and around 3000-5000 cut in the name of other charges
When i asked for a reversal as they didnt inform my father after spending a week or so with their cc they said we will revert ur charges. I was happy but after two days i found they have refunded 800

When i asked why only 800 they said we can reverse only one month charges.
There customer service have some three levels
Base level, mid level, high level
Day by day the issue upgraded and after talking to the high level i got this solution of one month reversal of MAB:(
Finally i opened an kotak 811 account for my mother and father and thats the best actually in my perspective

True. They get their money one way or another.

Charges only for withdrawing money from branch not from ATM

As per RBI no charges are applicable for ATM failure from bank side, including link failure and non availability of cash. However, for unable to dispense due to non availability of balance in account, charges can be levied.
For cash transactions at branch, including cash deposits, all banks have started to charge their normal customers wef 1st Oct, apparently as per the directives of Modi sarkar.
ICICI employees try to open high value Accounts to get incentives. It is a known issue with not just ICICI but practically all banks. Even PSU banks now try to mislead people to buy wrong insurance. I recently heard of an instance where a 65 year old person was sold a Pension plan in which he needed to pay minimum 10 years premium before he could start getting pension. Thats why always insist on opening new account with only a deposit of 5,000 and not more. That way, they can not make it a high value account.
RBI makes it the responsibility of the customer to verify their statements on monthly basis and report any discrepancies. If nothing is reported within 30 days, the charges are deemed to be accepted.

sbi is charging for over limit cash withdrawal atm txns but here it seems icici is charging for even 1st atm cash withdrawal txn of the month.

Savings account which has mab of 10k
Actually after connecting with the last level of CC i got a call from  branch manager where account was opened
He first said Sorry for all matter and asked what has actually happened
And then what he asked was who was the person who opened ur account.
If it was me i would have obviously forget his name
But luckily my father remembered it
When i said his name, he said now he has left so we cant verify
Even after repeated tries of making him agree that there was mistake from both sides he didnt agree and so i understood nothing can be done and left the issue

you never know when they introduce charges


axis zero bal free ASAP account with free Virtual Debit card

but it deducted penalty from my account for non maintenance of minimum amount

plus they have stopped Virtual Debit card, now only physical debit card with hefty fees is available.

regular account or Basic Service account?
for regular account, RBI mandates minimum number of free withdrawal per month which no bank can change. for basic service account, all ATM transactions are chargable.

ask your father to give a written application for closing the account and indicate the harassment faced as the reason for closing. they will at least immediately change the type of account, in order to retain the customer. in case your father in already a senior citizen, insist on the special benefits applicable to senior citizens
