Yes, you can get it. But in most of the cases, OD will attract interest. It is more like an unsecured loan. So check with your bank regarding the charges for OD. - In your case just the OD is pre-approved. they have not mentioned anything about the charges.

OD helps in cases where your balance drops below zero. Like in case of any standing instructions or cheque issues, if the balance is not there banks charge penalties and cheque bounces can lead to legal issues. OD will help you there. Some banks offer OD free of charge up to a limited duration, Check regarding that and...
So to cancel the OD account renewal, do I have to visit the branch, or can I request to cancel the OD renewal request online? ( Email,call). I do not need the OD account.


Can they renew it without my permission?

Yesterday, I got the OD account number. When will I be charged the 1% fee? I cannot see the statement as I do not have the user ID yet. So when do I have to pay the joining fees to avoid any late payment interest charges?


Actually, as the nearest branch is too far away, I do not want to visit the branch.And even if I close it tomorrow, then I have to pay the 1% fees even if I do not use any amount, right?

So is there any trick to avoid the renewal without visiting the branch?

There is a new option in imobile to close an account online. But I am unable to link the new OD number with my savings account. I cannot see my account number in imobile.

PF+GST will be charged anytime after OD account created , it will be debited in OD account balance and YES interest meter is ON already till you pay the outstanding amount , In My case interest auto debited in OD account every 2nd of the month (confirmed with friend's all of them are 2nd Only) there is no statement system that you paying every month its normal current account having OD balance so you need monitor often and not allow go out of order please keep excess balance over and above in the OD limit account for charges and interest on the day of 2nd every month you would get monthly statement like SB account.

I mentioned earlier imobile for personal and Instabiz for Business ! You could see currnet account in imobile but that is SALARY account OD and FD account OD , you cannot link , imobile and instabiz are working different customer ids , once you get the cheque book you can see customer id in front page

If you want to know PF is debited or not just call above corporate care number in IVR select balance
 
Update on my situation : I closed by canara bank account , and also requested them to close the OD account. They obliged.

Bear in mind that this OD shows as a Loan in yourCIBIL. It was showing on mine too even after account closure, so I raised a request with the branch first and then the nodal officer, after which the entry was suppressed in my CIBIL
 
how can I close this account online? They are going to charge 1% of my sanctioned amount every year.
You cannot close account online ! You MUST visit for account closure , Not 1% may be higher on renewal or same 1% depends on the situation and your credit profile

I thought it was totally free.
🙂

how can I stop it from being automatically renewed every year?
simple! They will send you email or you will get a call for renewal, you can place the request to cancel the OD renewal

And how can I login to Instabiz ? It is asking me for the user name for which I have to visit the branch. When will they send the enquire card? After which, I can login with my enquire card details, right?

I already replied earlier post , YOU MUST VISIT branch along with your CHEQUE book ( it will reach you after completion of online OD opening) some time you may lucky to get GOOD customer executive and they can place request for netbanking ID and Inquiry card request try your best.
