Dear Sir/Madam

We did not response properly from your banking department, everybody call us and they warn & harash to me. & told us “ why you are not paying outstanding amount to bank. If u have not capability of repayments so why you have why use credit card. In short way I would like bring your kind notice that I have several times notice to your bank executives as wall as tele callers explained that whatever amount yours showing in your account statement, which is not co relate with my actual outstanding & besides I have u requested to all of person I have spend Rs.3300.00 instead of Rs.11589.00 so, my actual outstanding was Rs.3300/-approx only instead of Rs.11589/- and now your statement is coming including Rs.11589/- + finance & late fee & etc., today we recd your current outstanding payment reminder for claiming Rs.20068.01. which is not true.

And also note that just now I recd. call from your collection department, for offering that he is recd. the sattelment letter from bank in RS.8300/- (tel : 011- [protected]), apart of that every time I have clearly mentioned to collection boy & your banking department & executives saying that I will not pay any single penny to bank. Where I haved not any fault & bad debts, apart of that your people your bank peoples have give a warning “ This is not to be good for you & your profile will flash out in banking Systems.”.

Hence, I totally refused to pay of Rs.20068.01 & I will not pay in future. & I request you to please take appropriate & necessary action against this dispute amount at your end.

Otherwise I have no option to take legal action against HDFC bank.

Thanking You,

Rakesh Dhingra

Dear Sir,
I was using this above mentioned card since 23/06/2007 and was happy using this card, but one day I came to know my credit limit and outstanding increased beyond my limitation instead of, I am paying regular amount to HDFC bank, it is surprised to me, then I had contacted to your bank local at Delhi (Rajori Garden) to meet Apinder (his Mobile number is [protected]) to understand the interested rate calculation done my bank, Oh! It was really panic for me it is rate of interested rate is 45% PA.
Even I had request few wrong transition was held during 14/01/2008 (double payment to Baja Allianz) and another payment to some US university I am surprised, why HDFC hired such un-educated person in bank to destroy reputation of HDFC and forced to break relationship with client.
As I understand from HDFC-Rajori Garden Branch, I already paid to Bank against my outstanding 1, 79, 000 against my credit limited of 2, 91, 000..00 (Please correct if wrong calculation provided by Rajori garden Branch). Now, I am looking forward co-operate from HDFC bank to stop making call to my mobile number and lend line number as harassed my family and me, secondly I am not able to make payment rate @45 % which is my out of scope, really, which I was NOT aware before as rate of interest..I am also requesting please stop calculating interest rate which is NOT practical, I M READY TO PAY INTEREST RATE BASE ON RBI DIRECTION & Guideline, (It is available on RBI website)
I will try to settle my outstanding amount in next six to eight month with mutual understand as I am NOT running away from here or world, but if HDFC creates situation more worst in my family life during this struggle period then I have only option to [censored].
So, I requested HDFC, during this time, please cooperate with me as I am honest person to clear all genius outstanding of HDFC ASAP.

I had lost my credit card indvertently in australia which i realised on reaching back to India. I applied for a fraud application. The application was signed by me in May 2008. Since then I have not been communicated by the bank of any resolution on such application. After several month i myself started calling up the people on transactions which i disputed. I got few transactions reversed from the merchants side and got cash back from a vendor directly. This cash was paid into the bank. After 10 months of no response i receive a letter from the bank.

Saying that the funds in savings bank are under a lien and if not paid in 7 days the amounts would automatically be debited/. The letter mentions of Mr Puneet Oberoi and his contact numbers [protected] and 011-[protected]. However.. no body ever pick up the phone. At several times the phone was busy.. but even then no body pick up the phone. I think the bank use this only for making outgoing calls.

Post receipt of such letter from bank... I gave a call to customer care department who didnt have any information on my card.. as it was locked. I asked them for a call back from the billing department. After 4 days of such request I get a call from bank in odd hours i.e. 8 PM. The lady on phone told me that the fraud complaint on your card has been closed. However I was made no correspondance. And she insisted that i should pay. After all negotiations, she informed that the amount in my savings bank would be under lien. However after a week it was made an auto debit by the bank on a saturday avoiding me to take any action.

Bank is highly careless. RBI should take an action on it.

I was having Credit Card of HDFC bank, but due to some reasons i did not pay the entire dues for which i had requested the bank to make installments but insted of that they send me the notice of cheating and clear the amount in a day but i had again requested them the same, but now they are threatening me that they have taken non bailable summons of mine and if i don't pay the entire amount in two days they will arrest me and take me to Chennai, but where as i am living in chandigarh, then how this matter goes to Chennai, if any body can help me with suggestions then please reply on my mail.

My HDFC A/c NO: [protected]

Sir,
At the outset, I would like to introduce myself that, I am Ajaya Kumar K.R have been holding an HDFC Silver Credit Card bearing credit card no. [protected] since 06/2005. I have droped a cheque of Rs.1000 on dt.25.11.2007 at one of the HDFC Bank where the same was not credited into my account till 27.11.2007 and that was a fund transfer cheque. Taking cognizance into debiting of penalty on my account, I had made an online payment of Rs.1271/= from my HDFC account. Whereas, there was no suffcient balance at that time after I made the online payment to HDFC and subsequently I requested one of your executive at Saket Branh, New Delhi to stop transaction of my cheque which I droped 2 days back bearing cheque no. 810703 where he directed me to talk to the call centre after giving me the telephone number [protected] and committed that If I would infrom to that number, HDFC will not charge any penalty against my stopped transaction. After construing the commitment made by your executive at Saket Branh, I spoke to Ms.Shilpa at customer care and she has vehemently asserted that HDFC would not charge any penalty because I have informed the matter well in advance.

Thereafter, when I checked my credit card account on 29.11.2007, I felt embarassed that HDFC ( Hereinafter called as one of the leading financial institution in India) is debited Rs.337.08 on my account after interpreting that the charges incurred are (Payment return fee stax+cess).

Being an HDFC account holder over the years, the matter of debiting such an amount to my account is very ridiculous and unjustified.

Keeping in view of the seriousness, I would request you to kindly reverse that entry into my account.

I agree with this.. HDFC collection agency is horrible to deal with.. they are trained to humiliate customers..
I would say to HDFC bank - Please force those customers who intentinally donot want to pay.. why do you torcher the honest customers who want to pay but may get late due to certain unavoidable reasons.. in any case bank is charging late fine, financial charges etc etc.. why the hell customers will listen to harsh words even after paying extreme high charges for the delay.

The same thing happend with me also brother with SBI credit card and all i had to do is write a letter to their head of dept and await for the response if u dont get proper response please escilate this issue to court, follow the correct procedure and your concern will be taken care by them or by court.

I had an hdfc bank salary account (At hdfc bank, c-17, anand niketan branch, chanakya puri ) with act no-[protected] which i have been using for more than 2 years. 3 weeks back my debit card got captured in another banks atm because of some mal function and i had to approach my branch for a replacement. Even after four visits to the branch in three weeks up to june 29, 2010 and filling up of numerous forms they couldnot provide me with an replacement debit card, cheque book or phone banking or net banking pin at the branch. They were not willing to update either my phone number or address even after i provided lease agreement for home as address proof. This is highly disappointing and unacceptable in an age where other banks are looking to provide competitive services. So people please be careful whom you open salary accounts with.

I AM UNABLE TO PAY CREDIT CARD BILL USING MY HDFC DEBIT CARD, THIS OPTION IS NOT THERE. SOMETIMES OTHER BANK OPTIONS ARE NOT WORKING.

Hi,

i had taken a credit card from HDFC bank in 2004 and in Jan 2005 they charged me wrongly and i did complained them that time only and asked them to settle the bill.

till 2008 they slept over it and i also forgot and now they returned today after my mail for settlement in March 2009.

Today they are trying to armtwist by saying that they will not give my Car NOC unless the card payment is cleared which is charged wrongly.

HDFC Bank is a Cheat bank and no one should open the account in his bank. They are bleedy blood sucking parasite which sucks all the blood of the customers. And the most pathetic is there Customer Service. This is ridiculous service I have ever seen in for any bank. Person should even think 1000 times to open any type of account within this bank. THESE PEOPLE ARE BIG RASCALS WHO NEVER UNDERSTAND PROBLEMS OR THERE CUSTOMER.

THEY ONLY KNOW TO DEDUCT MONEY FROM THE CUSTOMER ACCOUNT.

Dear customer,

Due to information security policy, we do not mention full card details, whether closed or open, to avoid any kind of misuse. Moreover we wish to inform that the last 4 digits are unique numbers, to identify who the card belongs to.

Regards, Customer Assistance, HDFC Bank

I have closed my HDFC Credit Card thru settlement in 2010. I have requsted for NO-DUE letter and with much pressure the Bank issued letter but without full credit card number like 1234 xxx xxxx 6789. I takenup with the Bank and the bank officials maintained that they issue NO-DUE letter without full Card number only. When the card is closed why they are not issuing the letter with full card number. This shows their intention that they may again reach the customer with some other dues even for the closed card. Please take care of the Credit card closed A/cs and take the NO-DUE letter properly or else they will land you in trouble after some time.

There is an issue with the debiting of Rs.280/- from my account, and its been harrashed by the bank peoples at there one of the aundh branch. Please look into the matter as fast as possible.

Hi,

This regarding the charges made to my HDFC Gold card. When I paid the amount in cash, they charged me Rs 50+ Rs 6 as service charges. This is really unfair. Bank is not done any favour to customer by receiving money on credit card, but they charged with amount.

The HDFC credit Card Departmnet is harrassing towards the stolen card payment wherein I have informed the the bank regarding the lose of card & even submitted the FIR acknowledgment also.
Top of that they have hold my salary account in the same bank.

Re: HDFC, Customer Service Officer

Your bank also sent me Two Balance Transfer cheques of Rs. 10,000/- (4000 and 6000), but it was not utilized by me and were sent back immediately to you and after reminding you so many times, the said amount was debited. In the meantime, your bank imposed charged against said B.T., which was not reverted and the amount has now become Rs. 8803.62 as per your latest statement (june).

For the same, I have contacted you every month, your executives tell me to pay the actual amount against my purchases, and they will revert the extra amount in the next statement.

It has been a very long time since I am contacting you for this matter and despite of my written reminders (by post and mail) to you every month since January, note that you have taken no action till date.

I have duly paid all my dues (monthly) in time and am not liable for any other payment. One of your executives came to my residence in the month of January and asked for Rs. 420/- against settlement amount. I duly paid the said amount also. But the same thing was repeated in the statement of the next month also.

Besides, your recovery agents contact me every month and threaten me to pay the extra amount otherwise they will come to my residence and will create unnecessary nuisance. Note that I have also stopped using this credit card now.

Thanking you,

Bhupinder Singh

I am a credit card holder of HDFC bank and the card Number [protected]. I am regular in payments of credit card dues. Unfortunately for the last 4 months even I drop the cheque at the HDFC drop box at Paradise, Secunderabad, Andhra Pradesh in time, the authorities state that the payment is not received in time and charging interest and late fee charges. It became a regular practice of the bank.

This is to bring to your kind notice that I, G.Vijay Bhaskar Reddy working as Asst.Manegar (YOU TELECOM INDIA (P) LTD CUSTOMER CARE , applied for credit and unfortunately my House address and date of birth were entered wrong in the application by your sales executive . WITH THAT SAME ONE OF YOUR CRADIT VERRYFICATION EXECUTIVE VISITED WITH RE VERRYCATION FORM MY WORKS PALCE .AND HE HAS COLLECTED MY SIGN ON REVERRYFICATION FORM & verification was over and your executive with the incorrect Flat No 204 did the residential verification. Please be noted, my DOB: 24.04.1974 and my residential address given below.

You take the acknowledgment of the request that you have given and there after if they are irresponsive you can just raise a complaint against the concerned officer and his recklessness of the performance of duties.

They bank service is pathetic. Customer service is very bad and they are rude. The bank charges for everything if you don't maintain the balance for one days also and it is not AQB. According to them it is per day which they don't mention when u open an account. Very bad service. They charge and make money from customers.

I am facing the same problem.

http://hdfc-worstbank.blogspot.com/

HDFC customer care sucks..Calling 100th time & there is no option listing for speaking to customer care executive.

PATHETIC service in the whole of INDIA. I am an NRI and I am going to complain this to the international banks authority also have sent an e-mail to the grevience cell. Point is nothing can happen as this is the umpteenth time I have complkained and not a single [censored] head from this [censored]all bank has called me or sent any information. Apologies guy, my advice all of you all over the world, stop banking with this F'd up never usefull bank, and one day in the years to come they will close down. Maybe not possible what I am saying but doable if even 1000 people stop banking with them at one shot.

This is sathish (ref no .[protected]).I have applied a personal loan .But my loan application has been rejected though i have eligibility to get a personal loan ..i produced all the documents which are needed for granting of loan.Verification has been done .i want to know the exact reason behind the loan rejection..i think nobody applies a personal loan for timepass .

THIS is to add from my side these HDFC CARD PEOPLE & SPECIALY THE CUSTOMER SERVICE EXECUTIVES ARE BEYOND CHEATERS ? ROBBERS AS THESE PEOPLE IN PITY HELP THE DISTRESSED BUT THIS HDFC BANK PEOPLE COMPELL THE CUSTOMER TO CREATE FRAUD BY PRESSURISING & FREQUENT CALLING THESE PEOPLE THOUGH OPERATING IN INDIA & MAY BE MOST OF THEM ARE INDIANS HAVE NOT YET LEARNED INDIAN CULTURE & THE INDIAN ETIQUETTES HENCE THEY TAKE THE CUSTOMER FOR GRANTED AND N NUMBER OF PEOPLE CALL ONLY ONE SINGLE CUSTOMER FOR THE SAME SILLY CAUSE & KEEP AWAY THE MAIN COMPLAINTS TO BUY OUT THE TIME SO THAT THE CUSTOMER IS FRUSTATED .THGIS IS MY COMPLAINT AS UNDER NOT YET REPLIED

It was pleasure at last I got a reply may not totaly irrelevant but not precise too .I further repeat my words with Poonam madam on Oct 20, 2008 that the worst condition of Consumer / Customer is in India where any company / Institution can rule the Customer and for a sound reputed esteemed bank like HDFC it should not take even minutes to understand penalties / assets / liabilities .When the penalties or charges in other words like Rs.700 for check bouncing, interest on delayed credit card payment is documented the bank's liabilities towards compelling the customer to lead to fraud & sending gundas, recovery agents for HDFC CARD payments with ICICI bank I CARD entering the house is surely due to the recovery agents appointed by the bank but where there is no undue recovery this is a thief entering the HDFC Card customer's house without knocking & trying to steal goods & when noticed showing the ICICI Identity card yet this is brought to the notice of the Local HDFC Branch Manager & Confirmed alas GOD BLESS them those who are spelling out to fetch justice but cannnot .SO MADAM ITS FINALY A CHALLENGE PLEASE SAVE THIS DOCUMENT AS PRINTED COPY THAT HDFC CANNOT FETCH ITS CUSTOMERS THE RIGHT, JUDICIOUS & LEGIMATE JUSTICE BECAUSE IT WILL AFFECT TO GREAT EXTENT.BECAUSE IF YOU REALY GO THROUGH THE SEQUENCE, STUDY IT CRITICALY THEN TELL ME IS IT WORTH TO DISCUSS ABOUT THIS COMPLAINT ON PHONE ONLY JUST TO CONVINCE ME THAT MY CARD IS SENT ON MY CARE OF ADDRESS PLEASE FORGET THE BANK HAS NOT DONE ME A FAVOUR BUT THE OFFICIALS HAVE TRIED TO SAVE THEIR JOB DUE ON THE VERGE OF FIRED OFF DUE TO THEIR OWN MISTAKES.

AS DUE TO TRANSFER I SHIFTED TO JALNA & TRANSFERED MY ACCOUNTS TO JALNA HDFC BANK ( YOU CONFIRM THE DATE & TRANSFER TOO) THEN I CALLED ON THE CARD CALL CENTRE No. FOR ENQUIRING

3.WHAT A POOR MAN LIKE ME CAN DO AGAINST THE GIANT BANK LIKE HDFC & ITS EMPLOYEES HAD TO REQUEST FREQUENTLY THEN I MET A CUSTOMER SERVICE LIKE THE BESTOWMENT OF RELIEF THAT OF A GOD HE WAAS REALY INTELLIGENT BUT HIS MISTAKE WAS HE THOUGHT THE CUSTOMERS ARE REALY FOOLS .
HE ASKED ME SEND A FAX OR LETTER JUST OMMITING OUT THE C/o WORD FROM THE ADDRESS SO THAT HE CAN ARRANGE THE DELIVERY OF THE CARD .
BUT I WAS SUDDENLY SHOCKED AS I REALISE SENDING THE SAME DOCUMENT IN TWO TYPES IS EQUALY A FRAUD HENCE I PAID FEES TO ASK THE LEGAL PEOPLE IF I SEND THE FAX WITHOUT C/o WORD WON'T IT BE FRAUD OR FRADULENT ACT OF MINE ALL TOLD ME I WAS CORRECT SO CONVEYED THE GENTLEMAN THAT I DON'T WANT COMMIT A FRAUD .
ONE FINE MORNING A COURIER GUY BOUGHT THE CARD WHICH I POLITELY REFUSED TO ACCEPT AS I HAD INTIMATED THE CUSTOMER SERVICE EXECUTIVE THAT UNLESS YOU SEND ME THE DETAILS OF
1. THE DELIVERY OF CARD WILL BE AT XYZ ADDRESS & THE ADDRESS IS ACCEPTED BECAUSE TOMORROW SOME OTHER WISE EMPLOYEE OF THE BANK SHOULD NOT OPEN UP QUERRY TO PROVE HIS WORTH & CAUSE THE DEATH OF THE CUSTOMER.
2.WHAT ARE THE LIABILITIES OF BANK TOWARDS THE CUSTOMER FOR
TORTURING HIM CONTINUOUSLY ON PHONE
MISLEADING HIM & HIS QUERRIES
CAUSING SEVERE FRUSTATION TO THE CUSTOMER PURPOSEFULLY
CALLING THE CUSTOMER WITHOUT PRIOR APPOINTMENT AT ANY TIME

I BELIEVE IN MISTAKES CAN BE FORGIVEN BUT BLUNDERS MUST BE PUNISHED .

3.INCREASE IN BP.
4.ALWAYS FRUSTATED MOOD AFFECTING MY DAILY WORK

PLEASE FOR GOD SAKE ASK YOUR CALL CENTRE PEOPLE THAT PHONE ARE FOR TALKING FOR MINUTES & NOT HOURS .
THIS ALL AS TIME IS RUNNING OUT ABOUT THE CURRENT COMPLAINT SITUATION YET BE ASSURED I AM CONFIDENT THAT HDFC IS NOT A RESPONSIBLE BANK AS THE COMPLAINT OF GUNDAS COMING FOR RECOVERY WITHOUT ANY REASON AND ASKIN ME COME TO CHOWK WAS CONFIRMED IN PERSON WITH THE HDFC AMRAVATI BRANCH MANAGER IN 2004 YET NO REPLY SO MUCH RESPONSIBLE IS HDFC THE GREAT & ESTEEMED BANK OF INDIA .THE EMPLOYEES ARE IN ILLUSION THAT WHAT CUSTOMER CAN AFFECT THEIR GREAT STRENGTH OF THE BANK THEY ARE ALSO RIGHT .HENCE THE JUSTICE IS FLATLY DENIED I SAY LIKE THIS BECAUSE MAY I HAVE LEARNT IT WRONG IN MY CHILD HOOD THAT " JUSTICE DELAYED IS JUSTICE DENIED "

Lesson learned from personal and individual experience - Never take any credit card. CC are big fraud by MNC's

Posting comment does this help.
I am the victim of this credit card division of Hdfc bank. They never sent any statemnet to me. and all of sudden i was surprised that from my account 13000 was transfered by the collection department.I thought ok fine now its finished . Now again after more then 1 year these guys wake up and without any prior notice the blocked my account. and to a surprise today when i checked 6960 was again withdrawn from my acount by the credit card department FUND TRF DM-[protected]. I dont know how long i have to pay which I am not owing. I am running to and fro to get hold of customer care executive for the settelment but every time i am said this is not the right department and a new number is given to me which i am unable to get through. I emailed to HDFC 2-3 times but no response.
Please let me know what should i do. My hard earn money is goping in waste which i am not owing.

i am beeing harrased by HDFC people like crazy for the payments...i have been out of town and cldnt make the paymeny on time...the collection executives call and abuse on phone..they say all inds of words to u ..and on asking their name they say we are HDFC...
i want to file a case against them...they have been harrasing like crazy...if u can take heed of it the higher authorities ...then look into it...i am filing a case against you people...

Woah!

Great article. I completely agree. I also know of people who are getting calls from so called Police officers, who are threatening the debtors to pay off the credit card dues. The debtors are being informed that there is a 'non-bailable' arrest warrant against them. However, if they (debtors) wish to reconcile, then by making a payment to the bank could solve everything within 15 minutes!

The purview / guidelines set by the Reserve Bank of India

(and being followed to the 'T' by HDFC bank)

The Professional way for the Collection Method by HDFC BANK :

The usual course of business to remind of payment obligation, follow-up calls and the professional method by HDFC,
the concerned Bank's representative initiates intimidating phone-calls to the victim's family in his absence by making unprofessional way of a routine payment follow-up call.

The concerned Bank pretend themselves some time senior police officer or some time a senior lawyer from Patiala Court .

The concerned Bank unleashes repeated threatening to the victim's wife as well as the entire family that they were coming to seal off the home (of the victim) in any moment of time.
They repeatedly scare the victim's family by saying that “ Right now, we are at Jamia Police Station so get the entire belonging out of home
within an hour and we are coming with a police to seal off the house”.

The concerned Bank calls the victim's home from the phone numbers (mentioned below).
HDFC Bank rushes to the victim's account (Saving Account : [protected]) and withdraws the entire Savings (Fund TRF-DM-[protected])on 23/11/1004 without serving any prior notice to the victim.
The boastful calls made by HDFC's Rep over the phone with threatening like "" I am in Jamia Nagar police Station with the court order for House-to be sealed. So get out of house immediately with your belongings or deposit the outstanding within 2 hours...
Those calls came from G I Dogra(claiming to be a senior Advocate, Phone NO: [protected] ) threatening to seal the home.
Similar calls made claiming to be from Tees Hazari Court (Phone NO :[protected], [protected]).
Again, a call was received claiming to be from Gurhgaon Police Station (Phone No: [protected]).

What a mockery! One of the call came from Sangeeta PS claiming herself to be a Senior Judge(Phone NO: [protected], [protected], [protected], [protected] ).

So I hope that when these guidelines adopted by HDFC BANK in this victim's case that is me, are referred to the RBI, these professional ways and professional methods will help RBI strengthen the Economy of the Banks concerned in a very HUMANE and HEALTHY way!

Please understand ! that I have fully and very well understood the guidelines set by RBI...and applied and followed by HDFC BANK?

Pal,

Do not settle for anything, verify lawyers credentials and do not worry read the full mail below and visit the sites I have given and share this knowledge - THIS IS CRUCIAL.

Good Luck

Tactics Credit Card Companies Use to Get You to Pay More

Although the credit card industry earns more than one trillion every year, they aren't satisfied with that, and have adopted dubious tactics to further fatten their wallets. Late and over-the-limit fees now account for more than half of their revenues, so they like to encourage or trick customers into paying some sort of penalty fee. And they are now only getting away with it, but they keep raising their fees up and up -- just a few years ago a penalty fee was about $10. Now the average is $29.00. Consumer groups estimate that soon these fees will average $59.00.

Late and over-the-limit fees are not the only methods companies use to rake in trillions each year. There are also the credit insurance programs, universal default policies, dishonest marketing campaigns and other stupid card tricks. Many of the major issuers -- First USA (now Chase), Chase, Capital One, Providian (now owned by Washington Mutual), Citibank -- have been sued over allegations of unfair billing practices and accused of blatantly using tactics to cheat customers out of money. Some of these tactics are outlined below.

Not posting your payment on the day it's received -- Federal law requires credit card companies to post your payment on the date it is received. If they fail to do so, they cannot assess you late charges or added finance charges. Still, a common tactic most card issuers use is to post only those payments received by 9:00 a.m. or 3:00 p.m. on a given date. Payments received at 9:01 a.m. are posted the next day despite the fact that all the major card issuers have payment processing centers that operate 24-hours a day, seven days a week. Best way to fight back: Send in your payment at least 10 days before the due date. If you can't do that for one reason or another, arrange to make your payments electronically by signing up at your credit card issuer's website so you can quickly zap a payment to them and they can't claim that they didn't receive your mailed payment until after the due date. It is interesting to note that almost all of the major credit card banks used to allow customers to quickly zap a payment to them via Paypal.com free of charge. Of course, this must have put a big dent in their late fee revenue so some of them stopped allowing this (Providian and First USA to name two).

Tricking you in to paying late -- Federal law requires that credit card issuers mail you your statement at least two weeks before the due date, so companies have to resort to other tactics to get you to pay late. You know that your credit card payment is due on the 25th of the month, or do you? Your issuer might suddenly change it to the 20th of each month to try and get you to mail it in late. If it's received late, they will slap you with a $39.00 late fee. If it's late two or more times, they can legally increase your interest rate dramatically, to as much as 29%. At various times, several credit card issuers have even resorted to not mailing out statements at all to encourage customers to pay late under the theory that "it is a courtesy that we mail statements out, not a requirement." [First USA actually used that as an excuse once and lost many customers as a result.]. Best way to fight back: Always open your monthly statement immediately upon receipt and check the due date. Don't be surprised if it has suddenly moved up five days and you received your statement "late". You might have to immediately write a check and get it in the mail that day to allow at least seven days for it to get to them before the due date. You don't want it to arrive at 9:01 on the due date do you? If it does, you will be assessed a late fee.

Penalizing you for carrying a big balance -- If you carry a high balance on your credit card month-to-month, don't be surprised if you one day notice a small paragraph on your monthly statement that informs you your interest rate is going to increase from 7% to 28% next month. What the credit card company doesn't tell you when you sign up for the card with the low interest rate is that they almost always raise the interest rate dramatically on people who never pay down a high balance on the credit card or carry big balances with other credit card companies. It doesn't matter to them that you have always paid your bills on time and are never late. You can be a customer of theirs for 20 years and never be late or miss a single payment, but one day they will decide that you are no longer a good customer and raise your rate to 28%. [Citibank is notorious for doing this. Every time I see one of their ads in a magazine or TV about how much they love and respect their customers, I want to throw up.]

Credit card holder wins suit worth Re 1 lakh

The Statesman 29.5.07

KOLKATA, May 29: Credit cards may be a status symbol to some but for a vast majority of consumers irregularities in credit card bills can cause a great deal of harassment. The recent victory of a credit card holder against a leading bank will be a boost to such consumers who are regularly harassed by their banks.

A city consumer court has come down heavily on ICICI bank by slapping a fine of Rs 1 lakh, the highest compensation imposed by the court so far for discrepancy in credit card operations. The court of Calcutta District Forum, Unit-II, president Mr TK Ghosh and members Mr H Bhattacharya and Ms R Acharya pulled up the credit card division of the bank for recovering a loan that was never received by the customer. The bank allegedly asked the consumer to repay loan installments along with interest including late fees for a loan amounting to Rs 33,500, supposedly issued by the bank, which was neither solicited nor asked for or received by Mr Kalyan Kumar Sur. The court ordered the bank to pay Mr Sur a litigation cost of Rs 5000 along with compensation worth Rs 1 lakh.

Mr Sur was taken by surprise when his credit card statements suddenly displayed interest charges. He complained that bank did not respond to his repeated e-mails when he asked the latter to provide him with loan details. Instead the bank allegedly harassed him further by sending loan collectors to his residence.

The clause 5.1(b) under Reserve Bank of India’s credit card operation guidelines reads: “Unsolicited loan or other credit facility should not be offered to the credit card customers. In case any credit card facility is extended without the consent of the recipient, the credit sponsoring bank will be liable to pay such penalty as may be considered appropriate.” During the court proceedings the bank failed to substantiate with written documents that it had received a loan request from Mr Sur. When contacted ICICI Bank spokesperson in Mumbai said: “We are aware about this case and the bank might appeal before the state commission against the order passed by the city consumer court.”
