Dear Customer,
Your Bank, known for service excellence in the industry for the last 98 years, believes that a satisfied Customer is the foremost factor in our business growth. As such, all our efforts are directed towards Total Customer Satisfaction.
Bank of India owes its existence to the patronage of innumerable customers associated with its network of Branches across the country. Customer empowerment through Customer education is the key tool to ensure a vibrant relationship between the Bank and our esteemed clients. Towards this end, the Bank had come out with a Citizens' Charter in September 1997. However, in view of the various changes brought about in the industry in the recent past, we find it necessary to suitably revise the Citizens' Charter.
'Citizens' Charter' encompasses most of our operations. It has been prepared to promote fair banking practices and to give information in respect of various activities relating to customer service.
We wish to acknowledge the initiative taken by the Ministry of Finance, Government of India and Ministry of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances for the encouragement given to us in bringing out this charter.
The Charter is an acknowledgment of your right as a customer.
We shall continue to strive hard to win and sustain your confidence and support.
I shall be pleased to receive your suggestions in our pursuit to serve you still better.
Yours Sincerely,
M. Venugopalan
