      Definitely good. But they provide very low interest rate on FD. Interest rate is 7.3%. Staffs behave well and well trained. You can get better interest rate at other banks, almost 1% high interest rate. Now a days lots of ATM from BOI is available.

      BOI is a Government bank and their norms are in line with RBI. The reason why I had chosen BOI is because its a very old bank and its next to my place. My father and mother is holding an account here and that is why I am using this account. I know the BOI staff so I had taken this FD .Interest rate offered by BOI was 8% to 9%

      Bank of India is same like other banks in regards to the rate for Fixed deposit. Service is not good like private but product and money will be safe. It is an nationalized bank and that is only good thing about them. All the government banks are low in services.

      I do have the fixed deposit with the Bank of india. I used to visit the branch for some of the thing and the rest of the thing I used to dealt with online banking. The drawback is I have to download the application to do the online banking, which is secure but not user friendly. Customer service is good and the rate of interest is also good. There are no minimum lock in period for this.

      Firstly, I have a savings account with Bank of India and secondly it is a government organization so comparatively safe and thirdly the rate of interest 8.75% is high. I think for senior citizens, the rate is of 9.2%. Certainly the rate is of simple rate and it comes at the time of maturity.

      Term period that I have opted for Fixed Deposit is 5year and the rate of interest is 8.75%. If we want to break the deposit in between the term, can do it very well but there must be some penalty charges. As per our convenience we can prefer the tenure and at the end of the maturity, I do get the accumulated interest. Bank of India is very good but they lacks in service when we compare with private banks.
