SBI Slashes Down Charges For Maintaining Minimum Balance

Like every other bank, SBI too imposes penalty charges on its customers for not maintaining the fixed amount of minimum balance in their bank accounts. However, you would be glad to hear its latest news stating that the bank has finally reduced its penalty charges, effective since April 1st’ 2018.

The AMB (Average Monthly Balance) prescribed by SBI is Rs 3,000 in metro cities; whereas in urban areas, Rs 2000 and Rs 1000 in rural areas. The bank has slashed charges by a whopping 75 percent and the latest charge will affect over 25 crore customers across the country.

For Metro and Urban cities, the monthly updated charges are 15 rupees + GST, for Semi-Urban centers, it’s 12 rupees + GST, and for Rural centers, it’s 10 rupees + GST.

While informing about the recent developments, SBI clarified that its accountholders can now easily convert their savings bank account into a basic savings bank account without paying any extra charges.

The Merger of Associate Banks is Responsible for the Higher Accounts Closure- SBI

SBI has clarified that the reason behind a high number of closed accounts is the merger of its associate banks. SBI further added that minimum balance maintenance had nothing to do with the closure of these accounts. SBI got a lot of flake after reports stated that it had generated a higher revenue due to non-maintenance of minimum balance as compared to the profits earned.

After that, the SBI reduced the minimum balance non-maintenance charges by approximately 75 percent, w.e.f. April 1, 2018.

SBI Bank Accounts Shifted to Other Branches without a Prior Notice, Leading to Unhappy Customers

If you haven’t checked the status of your SBI account recently, it is high-time you cross check your bank’s address. You might be surprised to find that your bank account is shifted to some other branch.

In a recent move, SBI has shifted many of its customers’ accounts to different branches without sending any prior notice to them.

Now, it will take time to see and tell if the affected customer base of SBI copes-up with the latest changes or not.
