USER REVIEWS
Stay away from ICICI and Money2India. I strongly recommend using either Click2Remit, Ria, Remitly, XE, XOOM etc. And for NRE/NRO accounts, use Kotak and their Click2Remit. But NOT ICICI or Money2India. We were trying to send money via Money2India to newly opened ICICI NRE Account. But ICICI failed to complete the transfer due to name mismatch and refunded our USD money, but issue is: they didn't refund full amount. ICICI deducted few dollars saying I lost it due to the conversion loss. I paid in USD, and they refunded back to me in USD. There was nothing needed to convert. Even if they had to convert back and forth, ICICI should have dealt that internally. But they put that loss on the customer. When I spoke to ICICI customer care, they forwarded me to supervisor/floor manager. And that customer service floor manager spoke like "yes sir, if you are not happy, simply drop an email to close the account sir; ya sir you can share the feedback, no worries sir, ok sir".. funny and nasty customer service. Even I connected with Facebook team with direct message, but no use, no help, except they also gave same answer saying that conversion rate is low during refunding my money. And same reply I received even in email. I don't know why/how ICICI or Money2India is doing business in USA.

6 Money2India remittance service is the worst I have used; not only they did not remit the money, I had to chase them for knowing the exact status. And it turned out their website vs customer care vs email different statuses - email status was the most specific, but most delayed. Email simply stated "Our team confirmed that we are unable to process the transaction... We request you to visit your US Bank Branch and raise R07 request to recall the funds.".

3 Tried it based on recommendation by a friend. It took 5 working days to fund my account in India. As soon as I registered, the phone banking officer called and helped me out through the process. The team at New York did a good job to handhold my entire transaction.

1 I have been using several different products to remit money to India in the last 10 years. However, ICICI Money2India experience was best amongst all the products. No matter whether the amount was high or low it was credited in the Indian bank account on time and the rate was best in the industry. The customer support was very helpful. I highly recommend using ICICI Money2India if you want to remit money to India without any hassle and want a peace of mind.

1 I used 5 different companies listed on compareremit in the last 3 weeks to send money from USD to INR. ICICI is by far the slowest. Ria, XE, XOOM, and MoneyGram were faster and also had better rates depending on amount being sent. XOOM and XE very good for larger transactions and ria has best rate but limits to 2999 per day and 8K per month. After waiting one week (initiated transaction for 5K USD on Mon Oct13), I called on Monday Oct19. Got through to a supervisor who didn't know why its not gone through. He raised a service request so we'll see where that goes. Only good news is that they do respond to calls. I would be ok if they had told me it takes 5+ working days upfront but they claim otherwise. Best to avoid for now

2 Please dont ever waste your time using ICICI to make the transfer between US to India account. Though their website claims they will do the transfer in 4 days, it takes 7 or 8 days to complete the transfer. Money was withdrawn from my US account 4 days back, but it has not been transferred to my India account, when asked the customer service executive told me it will take another 3 days(So in all it takes 8 days, since the time you made the transaction). The money has reached ICICI account and they keep the money with them for 4 days which gets them huge interest and profit through our money. When the money has reached their account, what stops them to make the final transfer to our destination account. Sheer malpractice! I am never ever going to do a transfer through them ever again!
