So today I went to another ICICI Bank branch to open 0MAB account without initial funding. I starightaway showed my credit card and also the icici website eligibility page. So they couldn't tell much. I thought I won the game this time.
But this time they threw another googly at me. I can open the account without any initial funding, but I cannot open bank account alone. It's a 3-in-1 account and I need to pay 999 for demat charges + keep some balance in the account after it is opened.
It will be savings, demat, and trading account. Plain savings account is not there it seems.
I have already quit the efforts to open private and WM accounts. Now the only option left is salary account. Or hunt for some other branch which will open savings account alone without initial funding.
