Quick Summary

A customer is seeking advice because their bank has refused to allow premature closure of a Fixed Deposit, citing the issuance of a duplicate certificate. Other users suggest that if the duplicate certificate was legitimately issued by the bank, they should not be able to deny closure. They advise gathering all facts, including written communication with the bank, and potentially escalating the issue if the bank's refusal is unfounded.

If you premature the FD then Bank does not issue duplicate certificates. So if any problem is there complain to the ombudsman.

Until and unless you do not disclose the facts any opinion rendered based on your statement may be a misleading one to you.
Therefore please let us know that why did you obtain a duplicate certificate and what are the terms for closing the FD before the date of maturity, whether you have applied for closing the FD in writing and whether the bank manager refused to oblige in writing.
If so what was the reason quoted in the reply

Facts posted are not clear.
Duplicate certificate of FD has been issued by the bank only, isn't it ? If so, how and why they can refuse to accept ?

complete facts are not there.

If the duplicate certificate for the FD was issued by the bank then it cannot deny permission to close the FD before date of maturity, however if the duplicate certificate was created by you then the bank may not entertain your application

Bank has no power / authority to get FD foreclosed, if the account-holder desire so.
