Which Bank is best in India for a regular Savings Account?

[manu1991]

I have one with DBS. The average balance requirement is 50k but I get cash back on fuel (7.5% I think), 35% off on bookmyshow and the interest rate is also decent. Also, the debit card works everywhere outside India. The interest rate is also decent i think. Plus their customer base is so low that you dial the CC and get connected instantly if you need something.

I dont use walnut/moneyview to pay my bills. I only use them to manage my money across all accounts be it banks or credit cards. Keeping track of expenses is easy-peasy with these apps.

I thought Yes Bank had Amex cards. Remember seeing advt somewhere. @chromaniac.

Me and Amex do not approve of each other. It is suited for businessmen or travelers not someone like me [emoji48]

Thanks for all the replies, looks like this thread's been turned to something more awesome
Anyway I've been in touch with the branch head + nodal and I'm hoping they will resolve this. Will post an update here if they do anything.

The list for me is trimmed to Kotak vs DBS so far

For those recommending HDFC, you do realize that you have to maintain an Average Monthly Balance of 10000(I have an account with them) for a regular savings account, else its chargable 600 Per Month. I would recommend SBI or some other bank having zero balance regular savings accounts if you're a student and branch is close to your home
