Tamil Nadu Consumer Commissions Order Compensation for Banking Service Deficiencies
Two Tamil Nadu consumer commissions ruled against banking service providers for deficiencies. In one case, the State Bank of India was ordered to pay Rs 50,000 compensation after wrongly marking a customer as deceased, restricting his banking access for over a year. In another, an ATM service provider was directed to refund Rs 10,000 and pay additional compensation after debiting a customer's account without dispensing cash, causing mental distress. Both rulings highlight service lapses and the need for timely resolution.
