Disclaimer: This review only shares my experience with SBI, may not give much info about their products and services as such. Country’s leading Bank, Statebank of India, has finally accepted me as its customer. My first contact with SBI dates back to year 2001, when I approached NR Colony Branch of SBI with my uncle (who had an account there) and we met the branch manager with a request to open an account. I was an engineering student then.
The branch manager refused outright to open an account in my name. His reason for rejection was this-“Students don’t keep any money in their account-it is not economical for us to operate such accounts. We already have hundreds of such dead accounts. Sorry we don’t want another one”. Despite my assurance that I would maintain the required minimum balance he was not willing to listen and we had to leave. May be he was right in his views, but what he forgot was that students of today will be professionals tomorrow and some of them would even reach the status of HNI (High net worth Individuals).
