poor service. buy back option is not uploaded in the system well in time despite taking up the matter with them in online chat portal. Even now regarding Redington India Ltd buyback opened on 6/11/18, i took up the matter online with them, which they informed that the same will be available from 9th Nov. 18 which has still not been updated. Now they are saying that the same will be av available from 12/11/2018. It is worst customer service I have noticed.

375. R Govindaraju Jan 1, 2018 21:49 Reply

I am a customer for more than 15 years. Now I am feeling that the brokerage is very high. If an order for a scrip is split into several orders, they levied brokerage for each order at 0.05 or 25 rupees minimum. So an order is compulsorily to be made above Rs. 5000 for each order otherwise we will bear the huge brokerage.But in Karvy, they will charge brokerage at 0.03 or Rs.25 minimum levied to one contract note which could contain several executed orders. This will facilitate for orders more scrips in a single contract note. Secondly I was debited some amount in the Infy buyback and Wipro buyback. But in Karvy they debited the amount for Infy buyback but subsequently reversed it. Because of brokerage and other charges I am now away from this and all my active transactions are in Karvy. Now I want to substitute a broker in the place of Hdfcsec, pl suggest a good broker levying less brokerage.
