It is a very simple process to open a fixed deposit account with Bank of Baroda. The lock in period is for five years. They provide a very good interest on my savings. The process at the bank is also good. There are no hassles in the overall experience.
I have done one time investment fixed investment in Bank of Baroda, it has five year of locking period. The interest is nominal for the FD, I believe BOB give the interest around 8% , however there was no proper information regarding the interest. My father have taken this FD on my name, every year I deposit the amount.
I have a fixed deposit account with Bank of Baroda and the process to get this account done was easy. The customer services are good and the interest rate is also to my satisfaction. I have taken a loan recently on this account. It just took half an hour for the process for the loan.

I had Fixed Deposit account with Bank of Baroda about quite long back. The tenure period is six years and the fixed amount is four to five lakhs. The percentage of interest rate is quite good and they returned the money back with the promised interest amount.

I had opened my Fixed deposit with saving account in BOB. With hassle free opening through netbanking it was more comfortable. I could view the current interest and period of time was transparent in the website. They used to provide interest on quarterly bases. I paid bulk amount single time with good interest credits.

My parents were actually guiding me and its based on their advise, I decided to invest in Bank Of Baroda for FD. BOB has offered a very good rate and it is very much reliable. The tenure of the deposit is 5 years and this FD was taken before 3 years.
I was provided the highest interest rate and reminder of matured term deposit has been informed to me on the very next day which saved the interest loss to me . It seems to be very simple to renew the MTD (matured term deposit) at the latest updated interest rate.
Bank of Baroda is offering 7% interest rate currently for the Fixed deposit plan with the tenure of five year. Initially they were offering 8% but now it has been reduced. The minimum amount to start the plan is rs.1000 there is no activation charges. I visited the bank to avail the facility and within five to ten minute the plan was activated.

I hold a Fixed Deposit Account with BANK OF BARODA for more than eight years. I opened this account under the Double Amount Scheme. It is the only bank which offers 94 months time period for making payments. Under this scheme what are the amount I am making it will get doubled at the end. When compared with other banks BOB is the best bank to hold an F D account.
Rate of interest on fixed deposit is much higher in Bank of Baroda than other nationalized banks. More than that it is compounding and it accumulates yearly once. Penalty charge is of 1%, suppose customers want to break the policy in middle of the availed tenure period.

Interest rate offered by Bank of Baroda for the fixed deposit plan is 10% and the minimum lock in period is for 3 months . There is no any activation charges and also no penalty in case we break the plan in between the tenure.
