No automatic capturing of IPO price, funds transfer to bank after sale took five months in one case and they were holding funds for want of IPO buy price (without informing the customer). Overall experience with Geojit is very poor.

To open an account through physical mode with one of their branches, in addition to their charges, they are now asking for a deposit of Rs. 10,000. Their service charges are very high. Also, their web service is poor, with many technical errors.

Geojit is giving a hopeless service in Bangalore - HAL. From the manager to the agent, all are in the same category. They don't treat customers as humans at all. It’s very bad service. they are adding hidden charges to our account.
they are not giving proper answer to the additional charges what they are taking. I invest with benarmstrong-trades and make good money and I don’t have these problems, though their investment features are different I still make 15k weekly with beginners methods.
I have a horrible experience with Geojit. Their intentions are nothing but to make money out of the customer by investing in downtrend stocks. Their manager and staff are useless. If they know you know nothing then they will in the guise of helping you give you all wrong advice and when you realise this they will not be there to help you at all. They will only say invest for long term. Pucca useless people.STAY AWAY FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR MONEY AMD YOUR MENTAL HEALTH

Geojit is giving a hopeless service in Bangalore - HAL. From the manager to the agent, all are in the same category. They don't treat customers as humans at all.

They don't have little patience while talking to the customer, especially a few FEMALE by the Name LAKSHMI and SHARMISTA with her manager SARITHA, they treat us as if we are their servants and we should just listen to their orders and follow them, suppose if we are in lose

and our amount is on toss also we should not ask any questions and we should not expect any answer from them.

If we don't do that, then they show their original color. That time they become very rude and they use all sorts of rash words and they suddenly shout at us and talk in different tones.

Overall, they respect only those who invest money in Lakhs together, one who is investing in thousands, those people are not at all considered, they don't care at all and handle them very roughly.

According to me, GEOJIT is really very hopeless and D-Grade people and in their service. They don't respect customers at all? Usually, they don't think, of us only they are running their business, But instead, they are only worried about their Money and their comforts, mean to say what amount comes to their account.

Just because of them, Let the customer suffers or dies. They don't care at all. This is the ultimate Goal they have in their mind.

Don't ever go to Geojit this is no one uneducated trading platform - If you go forget all your savings, capital, and everything.
