you have the right to know about the charges deducted. if the bank officials do not provide sufficient info the lodge a complaint with you concerned bank obudsman deptt. or rbi obudsman deptt., they will resolve your query. complaint to rbi obidsman deptt. can be filed online through rbi website.

There are banks who do not have their own legal dept who can guide the legal heirs on the procedures to be followed by them in the event of death of an account holders. In such cases, they forward the documents to a lawyer to check the validity and then approve the claim settlement. Your bank may have charged you legal fees. But still, confirm with the bank.
