HI,

AS PER RBI POLICY PRECLOUSRE CHARGES IS NOT APPLICABLE FOR HOME LOANS IN FLOATING RATES

BUT HDFC IS STILL CHARGRING 2% PRECLOUSRE CHARGES FOR FIXED RATE OF INTEREST.

MY HOMELOAN A/C NO 359216447 @HDFC -TAMBARAM-CHENNAI BRANCH AND THIS LOAN IS FIRST 2 YEAR FIXED .
AFTER THAT IT IS FLOATING RATE AGTER 31.03.2012 IT BECOMES FLOATING AND ALSO
I HAVE PAID CONVRSION CHARGES OF RS 7818/- FOR MAKE REGULAR FLOATING RATE AND
PAID OME EMI IN APR-2012. AFTER THAT , I NEEDED SOME TOP UP AMOUNT BANK IS NOT WILLING TO GIVE MORE THAN 1 LAC.

SO I FORCED TO CLOSE MY HOME LOAN, WHEN CLOSING MY LOAN ACCOUNT HDFC CHARGES 2 % PENALTY FOR OUTSTADING LOAND AMOUNT.

EVEN THOUGH MY RATE IS CONVERTED TO FIXED RATE TO FLATING RATE (CHARGES 0.5 % OF O/STD LOAN AMT )

WHEN ASKING BANK FOR WAVE THE PRECLOSURE CHARGES THEN THEY GAVE A REPLY “IF IT IS OWN SOURCE OF REFUND THEIS NO PENALTY.
IF BALANCE TRASFER FROM SOME OTHER BANK IT ATTARACT 2% PRECLOUSRE CHARGES .

FINALLY I PAID 2% PENALTY ALONG WITH SERVICE CHARGES EVEN THOUGH I PAID THE ENTIRE AMOUNT AT THE TOME OF LOAN CLOSURE ON 22/06/2012 AND

THEY DEBIT MY ACCOUNT ON 27/06/2012 AND STILL KEEPING MY IN THEIR CCOUNT TILL 06/07/2012.

Hi,

Further to the below mail ,Please refer the Loan agreement Schedules.

In Schedule I it is stated that (Details of Repayment of Fixed Rate Terms) Interest Rate is 8.25% Fixed up to 31.03.2011

In Schedule II it is Stated that (Details of Repayment of Fixed Rate Terms) Interest Rate is 9.00%Fixed upto 31.03.2012

Where in Schedule II it is Stated that Details of Repayment of Terms Commencing from01.04.2012) Interest Rate is RPLR MINUS SPREAD 4.75%=9.00% P.A
Interest Rate Reset Revision Cycle: 3Months.

It clearly indicates that Fixed rate is up to 31.03.2012 from 01.04.2012 it is FLOATING RATE.

As per terms of Loan Pre closure charges not applicable in FLOATING RATE CUSTOMER Irrespective of any source.

Also refer your letter dated January 19, 2012 for Converting DHRL loan , Based on this mail I have paid conversion fee for Rs7,818/-

vide ch.no 244365 dt 21/04/2012 which is cleared on 24/04/2012.)and switched to the REGULAR FLOATING RATE.

When conversion takes place immediately I become a Floating rate customer.
If my interest rate is fixed rate and I am the Fixed rate customer why did you charges Conversion fees .

Conversion fees is converting existing interest rate to regular floating rate is it not ? If so I becomes a floating rate customer.

So my exit penalty would be NIL Irrespective of any source since it’s a Regular Floating Rate loan.

In view of the above , I request you to wave the foreclosure/ prepayment charges and provide the O/S Loan as of today(21/06/2012) so that I can settle the same at the earliest.

Thanks for your understanding and please do the needful.

Yours Truly,

D.Sathyanarayanan.

    Hi

    Sir, I need clarification for Partial Closure. If i am going to close the account partially it will reduce only tenure or EMI.

  2. Hi Palani,

    It’s based on your choice, if you want tenure to be reduced you may have to pay the same emi amount in less period, if you want to reduce the emi amount then tenure may be extended.
    Please ask the brank

    Thanks,
    Siva
