    I was charged Rs.575/- for transfering one of my SBI a/cs from one SBI Br. to another SBI Br. When I asked as to why I am charged for transfering the a/c, the branch manager said it is the clossing charges. I have mentioned in the application to close the a/c in the 1st bank and transfer the a/c to another br. But if my wording was wrong, they should have pointed out the same on the spot. Instead, they simply charged the closing fee. Is it right?

    This is not Mandatory/Compulsory to debit the money in account. This in-order of RBI/SBI.. Immediately SBI should stoped the charging. What wants RBI/SBI ? This is the rough policy of RBI/SBI. No Enhancement of daily limits (Rs 2500- to 4500/-). .
