Sir,
I had taken a home loan with a nationalized bank in 2009 in Chennai, and the loan was subsequently paid off and closed in 2012...I do remember that there was charge of around 6k added to my home loan account sometime in 2010 and when questioned , bank maintained that it is towards a home insurance charge taken for 10 years period...
Now that I had paid off and closed the home loan account , I had requested the bank to release me the home insurance documents so that I could get the Hypothecation released from it. kindly note that there is a new manager holding the position at the branch now.
But to all my surprise, when the bank made a request to the insurance company for the policy documents, the insurance company replied back saying that no such policy had been taken on my name/property, though there was a amount deducted from the home loan account for the same. After escalation, the bank's head office had asked for additional time to investigate on this matter.
So now, how should I proceed on this matter....What sort of a compensation can I expect or claim on this if it indeed becomes true that the bank actually had not purchased the policy though there was an insurance premium deduction made from my home loan account back in 2010.
please advise.
