Having an account with the State Bank of India (SBI) is almost a tradition in every household. But opening an account with the top lender in the country is quite a tedious task. Customers have taken to social media to complain about the poor experience when signing up for accounts or doing other work. Taking to Twitter, a user called @RajSing68391981 recounted his experience while visiting a branch.
“Bad experience all the time when visiting the branch for air conditioning opening or other works, they always show next level attitude or pass work from one employee to another…services really irritating,” @RajSing68391981 tweeted.
Responding to the user, SBI tweeted, “we regret the inconvenience.” And advised Raj to press charges.
