CANARA Bank is the best nationalized bank to bank with.
It’s greatest plus point is that it doesn’t tries to go for the number game or try to grab the targets that are not within its reach. As they say, it plays well to its limitations. Its simplicity and its ability to stick to its tasks make it one of the best banks in the country.
Thus it doesn’t try for having the largest ATM network like some others. Yet wherever it has its ATMs they are generally working.
It doesn’t have much of phone banking facilities and it doesn’t push its Internet banking service. Yet it is better than some banks that advertise these services and then fail to deliver them.
Then it does provide debit Card facilities to its customers free of charge and with only a minimum balance of Rs. 500. A lot of others also promise this yet this is the bank that delivers,
Its one of the very few banks that really sticks to both, banking ethics and service to the people.
Its employees are always ready to understand and, if it is possible, comply with the customers’ demands.
As a student who needed to pay his fees through demand drafts, and who always thought of doing so at the last minutes .I have many a times had my demand drafts readied within 5 minutes. And I am not talking about one branch. I have been heard and had been helped with the same speed and understanding in many places from Buland Shahr to Dehradun and from numerous branches in Delhi to all the way to Pondicherry.
In comparison to the volume of customers, it is perpetually understaffed and yet you will always find its employees always attending to you with genuine pleasure and smiles.
It does have anytime banking facilities in some cities but it will be great if these are provided in more cities.
Its employees really deserve kudos for making Canara Bank a great bank. They are the most helpful and most hardworking people amongst the bankers. It is they who make Canara bank one of the only banks that live up to its motto. They truly are there to serve the people.
