    HDFC bank is best amongst other banks such as Icici,Axis IMO. I have account in all 3 but i like the services of HDFC only. Very fast. Go with it without any doubt.

    Icici sucks big time :rolleyes: There is no proper response from their customer care and they always give us credit little bit late in compare to HDFC (based on my own experience) :cool:

    BTW recently they also increased minimum quarterly balance 10k from 5k (which we have to maintain in savings account in each 3 months).

    DON.

    Well ICICI have some hidden charges which you never get infomered when you open an account also their alerts are delay then HDFC. HDFC gives SMS Alert within 5 mints while ICICI bank tooks upto 5 hours sometimes. I think HDFC should be a good option.

    I prefer ICICI over HDFC bank, ICICI phone support is better than HDFC, net banking of HDFC sucks, i had a terrible experience with them, their net banking is not secure.

    Lately have been hearing loads of pathetic news with what happened with their system.

    Might just be an exception for you. HDFC bank stands apart from the
    whole bunch of private banks, in terms of customer service, technology
    etc. Been banking 4 years with them and without any hassle. Most importantly
    I never walked in to a branch except for the day I opened my account.

    Sounds Like you guys haven't heard about their latest net banking security system breach, where someone has transferred money from one accounts to another.
