Hello Sir,
A few days ago, I left my previous job (I was working in a nationalized bank) due to being selected in another nationalized bank in an officer cadre. However, there was a mistake in my name at one place in the resignation letter that I received from my employer. At the other two places, my name was written correctly.
They wrote "deepk kumar" instead of "deepak kumar." So, sir, is this okay or could it create a problem for me?
Thank you.

Hi Deepak, As the error was only in one place and the name is correct in two other places, you have nothing to worry about. All is well. Regards, Harsh

Well, it could create a problem if your name is mentioned wrongly or has a spelling mistake on all the places, but it will be no problem if the spelling is different at one place as you mentioned.
I would also suggest you err on the side of caution and ask your employer regarding this so that it will get corrected to avoid any further hassle.

I have told this to my employer but he told me that it will not create a problem as he told me that there is also employee no. mentioned in the letter.

Hi Deepak,
It is better to correct the letter at the earliest. Though the letter has your employee ID and your name is written correctly in the other two places, still, why take chances? Now, as you have just come out of your last organization, it would be easy for you to get it. If you happen to need this after some time, it may not be as easy as it is now.

But sir, they are not ready to make another one. After telling this, they told me that it wouldn't create any problem. So, any other alternative, sir? Also, I asked this to the bank to whom I am going to join, and they also told that it's okay. But sir, at the time of joining, should I inform the document verifying officers about this mistake or not?

Dear Deepak,
First of all, congratulations on getting selected in another PSU Bank. Good luck for the future.
Now to your question/doubt. Many of the above-learned followers have rightly said that an error in the spelling of a name at one place will create no problem. I would like to suggest giving one letter of information to the previous bank about this fact and not bothering thereafter. This will prove that you had pointed out this error and it's not your fault. However, this can happen many times. Don't worry at all and enjoy the new job. You need not point out this mistake at the time of verification of documents by yourself. If the Officer concerned points it out, you may show the letter of information sent to the Bank you left about this error.
Good luck and best wishes once again.

Deepak Bhai,
I assume you are referring to a relieving letter. That's the document an employer releases in reply to a resignation letter from the outgoing employee.
Since your previous bank is adamantly refusing to correct the mistake, you will have to live with it. As others have pointed out, just send a letter to the previous bank by registered post acknowledgment due and forget about it.
BTW, Congratulations on your new job.

@AK Jain... Good suggestion.
Although there should not be any problem because of this small mistake, AK Jain's suggestion of keeping a copy of the communication about the mistake with your previous company will give you a safety net for the future. Congrats and wishing you all the success in this new adventure.
