Most disgusting bank ever in Sri Lanka. Poor support, unfriendly, boring and worst staff. Not only the bank, but that online banking app is also s****. Nothing works efficiently. Recently i had to unlock my account but they were saying that they cant fix the issue. And my ATM card was expired almost a year ago. But they dont issue any ATM cards now. What the hell i should do. I have money in my account but cant get it when im needed it the most. I

The worst bank ever I see. We had to spent as much long as 5 hours for operning for new account. Dragging down of the costumer satisfaction. What a branch of Gampaha was done that without any doubt of our documents.

Bad experience from BOC Padukka branch. It's like we have to beg them for their service and they mess things up. Zero customer satisfaction for a lot customers who are dealing with Padukka branch

I surely can say this, for online banking BOC have best mobile app (B app) compare to other banks in Sri Lanka and it is free of charge.

I have my all money in boc...But when I go to open an account and get a bank statement from Teldeniya.He said he can't.In Teldenya branch manager is the useless person he is show power of his possision to people and he don't care of customers.Therefore I remove all my assets in boc and take to other bank.

Very bad service boc monaragala Branch . Also pelawatta Branch perfect. Need to active online banking facility.I had con call conversation with boc bank agent . She request to sent mail to branch with details. I sent 4 mails but still no any reply. I think all staff not responsible to work . Anyway government bank is very useless to people.

I must tell yesterday I called the hotline, to clarify which branches are open. The customer service agent guy in English was awesome. He told me all the nearby locations to my home, and even stated the addresses of those banks. in friendly tone. Later I went to the wellawatte boc .this place is wow compared to that worthless people's bank.has three counters open.we didn't have to wait much time waiting in the queue.The middle aged staff in counters even very efficient.The security guard was even a very respectable man.spoke in friendly words and told to wait in very kind words.compared to the dumb security guard at people's bank a very rude man doesn't now friendliness.the security guard at people's bank thinks he is president or something

One of the worst banks in Sri Lanka which does not care about customers at all. My debit card has expired.so i called the hotline and told the details about my issue.they told me go to the branch.however,i could not go out without a curfew pass at this time.i asked if there is anything you can do with ur system and they said no.🤬Why cannot they send an agent at this time.?i dn't know if they are sending agents from other banks to our place with this situation.why can't they do that..disgusting BOC 🤬

The staff in the city area branches is reasonably knowledgeable about the new technologies. Customer service is friendly.
Here are two incidents. Many more.
I maintain my accounts with the Personal Branch. Once I wanted to increase the daily transfer limit from Rs.100k. Wrote about 30 letters over two years. Immediately I used to get a number and a pompously worded automated letter of acknowledgment. That is all. Still no solution.
Once they asked me to come to the nearest branch and see the manager. I live overseas and the address with them is the overseas address. Should I see a manager for a matter like this?
Because of this, I transferred a chunk of my balance to a private bank.
In another instance, about five years ago I stepped into the Personal Branch to get a credit card. The manageress sent me to another officer. There was a balance of around Rs.1.5m on the account. I did not/do not want to withdraw. I explained that the bank can have a balance as the security. A regular deposit from my pension (Rs 75K approx. pm) was coming.
The officer 'interviewed' me. He wouldn't have been born when I opened my account with the Bank. When I said I had a Gold Credit Card and it was discontinued with a credit balance this officer පරල වුණා. He then addressed me ඔයා. We address ඔයා to a person on the same level. He could address like that to his girlfriend, not to a pensioner like me. I came to know that the AGM of the Card Dept. was a person who once worked under me. Another officer asked me to go and see him. Why? Why should I go and see big shots? To get a CD?
There are more interesting stories. But, assessing from only these two I can say service in nutshell was hopeless. How can the BOC compete with other banks with this type of service unless they have the govt accounts and govt business? Thanks for the war of 30 years! Now to Covid.

One of the worst banks in Sri Lanka which does not care about customers at all. The employees are inefficient as hell and management is even worse. Do not step in to any branch of this worthless bank.

They wont allow customers to fill their forms especially when you open a new account. They do all by themselves. So, I dont know they spell my name incorrectly in the passbook until I received. Finally I found some errors and I let them knew with the proof of my passport. Instead of change the name into correct form they convinced me that my name in the passport is wrong, what they written in the bank passbook is correct. In order to the change, they need me to submit affidavit docs and letter also my birth certificate. I found this is ridiculous. Coz what they did was wrong which is definitely not my fault. Maybe this is the one and only bank that need birth certificate to open an account in Sri Lanka. Highly disappointed with the way they interact with customers. No friendly service at all.

Very good bank. They give us excellent service.

Worst Bank I have ever seen. Don't use their cards for online payment. I will tell you guys my story. Last month I have pay to Abans (They also a bad company). Price more than 30000LKR. But After a few days, Abans said their stock is over. so they have refunded my money. But I didn't receive the money. So I have called the Abans once again and they said: "We have refunded your money. But the bank should accept It and You should call to Bank". So I called to BOC hotline and they said they can't solve this problem and also they said I have to call to BOC main Branch. They gave me a number. But After that, I try to call It It doesn't work. So I call BOC again and again. I have called them more than 15 times. Every time they gave me many different numbers. All the numbers not work. I didn't receive my money yet. If anyone needs proof I have it all. DON"T USE BOC CARDS FOR ONLINE PAYMENT.

මම මෙතෙක් දැක ඇති නරකම බැංකුව. මාර්ගගත ගෙවීම් සඳහා ඔවුන්ගේ කාඩ්පත් භාවිතා නොකරන්න. මම ඔයාලට මගේ කතාව කියන්නම්. පසුගිය මාසයේ මම අබාන්ස්ට ගෙවා ඇත (ඔවුන් ද නරක සමාගමකි). මිල 30000LKR ට වඩා වැඩිය. නමුත් දින කිහිපයකට පසු අබාන්ස් පැවසුවේ ඔවුන්ගේ තොගය අවසන් බවයි. ඒ නිසා ඔවුන් මගේ මුදල් ආපසු ලබා දී තිබෙනවා. නමුත් මට මුදල් ලැබුණේ නැත. ඒ නිසා මම නැවත වරක් අබාන්වරුන් අමතා ඔවුන් කියා සිටියේ "අපි ඔබේ මුදල් ආපසු ගෙවා ඇත්තෙමු. නමුත් බැංකුව එය පිළිගත යුතු අතර ඔබ බැංකුවට ඇමතිය යුතුය". ඒ නිසා මම BOC හොට්ලයින් වෙත කතා කළ අතර ඔවුන් කියා සිටියේ ඔවුන්ට මෙම ගැටළුව විසඳිය නොහැකි බවත් ඔවුන් BOC ප්‍රධාන ශාඛාවට ඇමතිය යුතු බවත්ය. ඔවුන් මට අංකයක් දුන්නා. නමුත් ඊට පසු, මම එය ඇමතීමට උත්සාහ කරමි. ඒ නිසා මම නැවත නැවතත් BOC අමතන්නෙමි. සෑම අවස්ථාවකදීම ඔවුන් මට විවිධ number ලබා දුන්නා. මම ඔවුන්ට 15 වතාවකට වඩා කතා කර ඇත්තෙමි. සියලුම number ක්රියා නොකරයි. මට තවම මගේ මුදල් ලැබුනේ නැත. යමෙකුට සාක්ෂි අවශ්‍ය නම් ඒ සියල්ල මා සතුව ඇත. අන්තර්ජාල ගෙවීම් සඳහා BOC කාඩ්පත් භාවිතා නොකරන්න.

Iam banker with BOC more then 6 years. Iam extremely disappointed on BOC of they're a policy. Why they are charging unnecessary fees from they're own bankers. Everytime withdraw money within BOC atm they charging Rs 5, every online transfer charge Rs50, scheduled transfer Rs 20, and SMS notification Rs10 . Iam really confused why they charging this amount from they are own bankers?aren't You suppose to provide this all services free of charge for BOC customers. I UNDERSTAND IF YOU'RE OUT OF BOC NETWORK CUSTOMER U CAN CHARGE THIS AMOUNTS THAT'S DIFFERENT. But you charging this amounts from your own customers ? what's the point of been a BOC customer? This is unacceptable ridiculous.Looking forward to moving to different bank.

I lost my Card and I wanted to deactivate it. So I called BOC card center and it's been 17 minutes and I am still on the hold. I feel Amazing!!!

Great service! a very safe place for your money.
