I've a fixed deposit with the CORPORATION bank. The deposit is 50000 an they offers 9% annum. I've deposited for the five years. It was easy to start the deposit but I am not happy with their services as they don't provide any additional benefits to their customers.
Service is very good ,response of their representatives was very good and responsible. They have some problem with their online application during the payments and other transactions are very slow with their application ,still overall service is good from CORPORATION bank.
I had the fixed deposit account with the Corporation bank and the interest rate was around 11%. Customer service was good and they are having the online application to track my account. Responsiveness is good with the corporation bank.

Benefits of Fixed Deposit are quite similar to other bank. Interest rate differs depending on tenure period that customer select. The interest rate normally ranges between 7 to 9%. Partial amount cannot be dropped in midst of the tenure but we can pre close that where Corporation bank provides interest for that particular period.
I am having the fixed deposit account with the Corporation Bank. The minimum lock in period is around 3 years and the rate of interest is around 8% per annum. Services are good with them. They are not responsiveness towards the customers. I would like to suggest they should improve the response towards the customers.

I also have a fixed deposit with Corporation bank. The services are good from them. I have not faced any issues yet. I am happy with the rate of interest given by the bank. They offer a interest rate of 8%. It has only been a year with them for this fixed deposit. They do no charge for this account. Not sure if there would be a penalty fee if I closed my account before the maturity period.

Initially I had a salary account in Corporation bank. Later I opted for a fixed deposit around 3 years back. The rate of interest was 9.2% approx. I would say that the services are better. Being a government bank they provide good services. The lockin period is 7 years. There are no preclosure charges.

Processes are Simple for users and you can do lot of stuff online. Good Bank to bank upon. Nice fixed deposit interest rates.
Have Branches at most of the places so its easy to reach them. Very friendly staff and helpful. Loan approvals are not that easy.
Corporation bank has offered very good interest rate for Fixed deposit and there are no hidden charges. Basis my entire experience, really satisfied and appreciable customer service. Response is wonderful and getting proper follow up in terms of deposit.
I did open fixed deposit in Corporation bank and it was good initially however it needs lots of improvement as the front office executives is not quite professional. The maturity amount is quite beneficial and it would be better if they could respond to all queries.

The rate of interest is around 9% to 10%, which I feel to be high on Fixed deposit. Corporation bank is good in customer service and responsiveness is also good. Overall, I am glad about corporation bank as an existing customer for more than five years.
I am really satisfied with the payment option because payment option is flexible for me and I can do payment from 5,000 to 50,000 in the month. Recently I have availed Fixed deposit with Corporation bank and online features are good. The rate of interest on my Fixed deposit is 9% but according to me the rate offered to me is low while comparing to other banks. As corporation bank being a nationalized bank they could increase the rate of interest.
I got a very good interest rate from Corporation bank, so opted for this fixed deposit. They do provide 13% interest rate which is impressive one. I get customer friendly services from them. I do cash deposits by visiting the branch where it gets done within few hours.
