Canara Bank escalation matrix: complain to the Principal Nodal Officer
Your complaint is stuck. Here is who is above customer care at Canara Bank, how many days each level gets, and the letter to send next.
The ladder
- Level 1 — the bank itself. Complain at the branch, on the bank’s complaint form or customer care (1800 1030 (toll-free)), and keep the complaint / ticket number. Canara Bank’s complaint page.
- Level 2 — the nodal / grievance officer for your area, if the first answer does not solve it. Details are on the same page.
- Level 3 — the Principal Nodal Officer (PNO), the senior officer RBI makes every bank appoint:
Phone: 080 22239011
Principal Nodal Officer, Customer Service Vertical, Operations Wing, Canara Bank, Head Office, 112 JC Road, Bengaluru 560002, Karnataka - Level 4 — the RBI Ombudsman (free): if there is no reply in 30 days, or the reply does not solve it, file at cms.rbi.org.in within 90 days. Check your dates · write the RBI complaint.

Why this works
Most people stop at customer care. The officers above are the levels the rules require — RBI makes every bank publish its Principal Nodal Officer, and the RBI Ombudsman only takes your complaint after the bank has had its chance. Writing to them, with your complaint number, is often what gets a complaint taken seriously. Canara’s page gives no email for the Principal Nodal Officer — use the online complaint portal (CPGRS) or post.
Not legal advice. For large amounts or a court case, see a lawyer; your district legal services authority gives free legal aid if you qualify.
