Is SBI the worst bank in India?

Question

I went to Barasat,WB branch of SBI for updating books. Even after waiting for one hour I couldnt succeded.A DD takes time of three hours. I"ve collected net banking form but nobody knows details,nobody there to attest signature. Its just a hell.

Answer 1

u r right, it is one of worst possible banks in india as far as service is concerned. this is one of the reasons that ICICI bank has become finalcially bigger than SBI even though SBI has all the backing of Govt of India

Answer 2

Worst indeed is SBI. Worst HR Department, very bad behaviour by officers and extreme bad behaviour to Officers inside the bank by their seniors. Second Saturdays & Sundays are mostly working days for SBI Executives. Much much better are the other banks like UBI, UCO, Bank of Baroda, PNB etc etc; SBI is heading the Air India way. In few years time they will be under extreme loss.

Answer 3

State Bank of India is the worst bank of India. We all yelled that it is the Babus (Clerks) that make a bank worse, however, SBI is different, here the Chairman is the most Haramkhor followed by MD and Chief General Manager .... in that order. The bank has no locus standi in the changing market scenario. One Chairman comes and starts Mission Parivartan and the very next halts the mission. The officials (starting from senior most to the branch level messenger) have become an implement to harass.... Chairman harasses MD, MD harasses CGM and the cycle goes on. These HARAMKHORS are least bothered about the business of bank and instead act as blood suckers leaving no opportunity to suck the blood of each one vulnerable.

Answer 4

You are absolutely correct. Opening account in SBI can be one of the most disgusting experiences ever. You better opt for Union Bank of India. I have a very good experience with them till date.

Answer 5

SBI and other state bank groups has all the banking features and facilities, but the service offered by the bank branches anywhere in India is the WORST.If you can do your task via online by yourself, then it is the best, but if you want to talk to the branch or some actions to be done by the branch, then you will be fed up with it and you cannot complete it on time. They do not read your emails, until you call them and remind, and it is not an easy task to 'call bank branch', they will try not to pick up your call. If you get your call picked by the branch, then it is your luck, once your call is got picked up, they won't speak to you politely, they won't listen to you, more over they will be blurred on most features which offered by the bank online.

Answer 6

SBI is the biggest bank of India, I never had a problem with them. Book updation and DD sure takes time everywhere. If they can't solve any of your queries or delay things for no good reason you better try finding their headquarter address and directly complaint against your branch employees there.

If you take some time and do that you will help not only yourself but others too.

Answer 7

All the banks, public and private, are adept in adopting various measures / tactics to make customer's life and relationship with the banker difficult. So depending upon your experience every bank at some point of time and location is worst.

Personally I had experience of having relationship with 7 different bankers. And all were equally worst, I say. Includes SBI, ICICI Bank, Syndicate Bank, Citibank, Bank of Maharashtra, HDFC Bank and UTI Bank.

Surprisingly I had extremely good experiences with few of the small banks in co-operative sector despite not having any accounts with them.

Answer 8

Oh! u r totally wrong bcoz SBI is the No.1 bank in india,.2nd is ICICI and SBI has got 3 times award for the best bank.

Answer 9

How can you ask such question? You should ask is SBI the worst bank in world?

I guess Banks in Zimbabwe will have better netbanking ..

Answer 10

SBI is the worst bank in India. They will not treat you gently.

You will not get any proper responses from them.

I took educaton loan from SBI before 2009 and Recently govt has waiveoff in subsidy.

All other Banks are started the procedure for waiveoff of their Education loan customer.

But after approaching so many times to my Branch Manager He replied that he has no information about waive off and when i said my friends are getting benefits of this scheme who took loan from others bank then his answer was Rule of every Bank and branch is different.

Last date to send the list of beneficiaries of waive off is 30th June and today is 25th June 14.

Now because of them its become very difficult for me to get benefited by this central govt. scheme.
