Have questions?
Can I access my account from any HDFC Bank branch?
Yes. All HDFC Bank branches and systems are interconnected by state-of-the-art technology and allow access at all times.
Can I make payments to my suppliers at HDFC Bank branches through a single cheque book?
Yes. When you open an account, you will be issued an at-par cheque book, which is payable at all our branches.
What should I do in case I am unable to access my Company's Current Account through Net Banking?
If you are unable to access your company account, it may be because you have entered an incorrect Customer Identification Number (Cust ID) to log into your NetBanking Account.
While opening Accounts of Companies, separate Customer IDs are created in name of the Company as well as each of the Authorized Signatory(ies). The latter is distinct and has to be used to access NetBanking for the Company's Account. However, we regret our inability to disclose the appropriate Customer ID on an unsecure e-mail and request you to contact our nearest Branch or PhoneBanking Center for this.
