Fraudulent Activity and Withdrawals

Dinesh Kumar, a resident of Dhaniapur Ghaurora in Leelapur, had opened an account in Lucknow due to his posting in the police department.

Dinesh had filled out withdrawal forms at the Leelapur branch but had to return home due to overcrowding. The fraudulent transfer was only revealed when he printed his passbook at the main Pratapgarh branch.

    1. Because they qualify gov exams , that’s the parks of gov exams , their brain and qualifications better than you can u crack ibps exams they ern lakhs per month + free patrol + free accomodation + free furniture , getting gov job is too much tough

      1. Your level of thinking is visualize from your name. Try to run a 100 cr company with your leadership skills. They clear exams coz they cannot survive in private industry. Idiot, they get salary coz of customers who pay interest on home loan and stuff and people who pay taxes. Clearing exam doesn’t mean shit when all you crave for is corruption. Get out of ur old age mentality. You clear and you have to serve the customer.

        1. Dude,99% private employees want to join govt sector ,I know you too want that 😉. Clearing bank jobs is tough and the people they r highly competent to run large companies and that’s why psb profits are high as ever.This cases are 1 in a million and doesn’t speak for the whole industry

      2. After passing the exam, they deduct hidden charges and premium for insurance without customer consent, miselling of insurance, mutual fund and credit card.

    2. What do you know about Bankers dude? Do you know that many of the work from morning 8.30 to 10 night? Do you know about the kind of stress they go through? If not try to learn. While it is true that some bad elements are there in Banking industry, please do not generalize

  1. Sbi means dictatorship of management as well staff. Due to monopolistic business they are least bothered due to this tendancy retail business is in negative.. A drastic mind set of staff is required by training and making aware industry level competition.. Sbi should be people’s bank, I may be wrong due to work load and unionisim they behave like this, which in future will be drastic to a prime bank

  2. Recently Karnal main branch transferred my money to another Account without any signature/ consent from me. When I lodged complaint they returned my money.
    These sbi employees are transferring our money at their own and carrying out scams in the name of scammers.

    1. The Bank which was abbreviated by you will come to rescue when the country economy is at threat everytime. Don’t judge like that man. It is global Bank taking care whole country. If you have issue so many ways to resolve. Bank tollfree 18001234 which can be remember easily and respond well.

  3. Thousands of govt schemes carry forward through SBI. Mishappening occurred every where. People need to open their eyes, SBI is the only bank carry govt subsidie. The poor remarks given by the all people are may irrepective and not know above banking rules, just to thier self ego instead of knowing facts. If the is in such way how the numbers growing at home loan, student loans, MSME and Agri based loans. It is just the irresponsiveness of the cop who given chance for Mishappening by singing vouchers and left heroic mood. Until or unless given grew by you, the crime in the world will not occur. Even, in the family all are not generous or not same. Blaming is simple for people who hitting their own mother.

  4. 1 man’s mistake doesn’t mean that it is whole banks fault. SBI has history of more than 100 years. No organisation can survive for 2-3 years if whole organisation is not working.

  5. Top management and Circle/ZO/RBO levels should keep an eagle eye on branch functionaries and such type of acts of commission must be dealt with without any inconveniences to customers who are not at fault. This leads to Goodwill of the institution and the management at helm of affairs. We find that people at large trust SBI as the most secured bank and their confidence must remain intact.

  6. Then why private sector people are leaving job and shifting to Public sector banks. We have many b. Tech and MBA holders who left private sector and joined PSU BANKS.
    Those who are unable to crack the competitive exam said bad things about PSU BANKS.

  7. What happened to YES Bank and other so called pvt sector banks, have anyone commented on them

  8. Now a days this bank is in news for wrong reason, poor and irresponsible behaviour of staff and fraudulent attitude of staff is the main reason. Bank should take pro active steps protect dignity and financial safety of public.
