EPF Withdrawal

Reported on August 29, 2012 from Bangalore , Karnataka  ι Report #969

I applied for a transfer of my PF account from Karnataka state to AP when I moved from Bangalore to Hyderabad and changed jobs. Two years and the transfer did not happen. I was told that it will not happen since it is state to state and that the only course is to withdraw the PF amount. I then applied again for withdrawal and this time I was asked to pay 10K so the withdrawal process is completed. I was given a story that my DOB is incorrect in the records and that if I pay this amount they will correct the DOB and initiate the withdrawal. I did and I received the funds soon after.

What is your reaction after reading this report?
