[Resolved]  Kotak Cards — Rejection of Credit Card Application

Address:Bangalore, Karnataka

I had applied for a Kotak Credit card after a lot of bugging from the customer care of the bank. I submitted my Pan card xerox along with with a passport photo to the bank executive.

From the date of submission of documents I started checking the status online and it always showed "Being Processed". After two weeks I called up the bank's customer care onyl to know that my application has been rejected.

I demanded a reason for the rejection but the bank's executive said that the verification process failed whereas I didnot get any verification calls or anyone in person to verify my details. He politely said that I receive an apology letter from the bank's side.

The private banks are doing their whims and noone takes any steps for the same. I request someone with authority to curb these menaces from these banks so that common man like me doesnot get harrassed.

Even my application was rejected. Later they told to open an fixed deposit for getting the credit card. So i handed over a cheque of Rs25, 000 to an executive in the month of march & it was credited in the same month. After that i repeatedly sent mails & made calls to kotak customer care for the card. The customer care executive always said that it is in process & to call back after a week. I called them repeatedly for 3 months but it was still in process. Fed up by calling them for card i told them to cancel the card & acknowledge me. Still kotak bank has not acknowledged me weather the card is cancelled or not after repeated reminders from last 1 month.

More over i had to walk-in to the branch after 2 months to collect the receipt for the fixed deposit, until then they didn't even had courtesy to mail it to me the reciept. When i wanted to cancel the fixed deposit, they again convinced me that i will receive a card within a week.

So please never open an account or have any dealing with kotak bank.. you will lose peace in your life & spend your valuable time calling & writing mails to customer care. whatever interest they are offering is spent on making calls & visiting the bank. i had one of the worst banking experience with kotak bank.

I have felt that i have been harassed a lot by kotak bank. Is there any possibility of receiving the term-deposit amount with interest back from kotak bank without visiting the bank. Even i am fed-up & decided not speak anymore with shameless & useless kotak customer care.

I JUST WULD LIKE TO KNOW THAT Y MY APPLICATION HAS BEEN NOT APPROVED, I DIDNT EVEN GOT ANY CALL FRM YOUR SIDE, THEN BEFORE ASKING ME OR GIVING ANY INFORMATION HW CULD U DO THAT, AT LEAST BEFORE DOING ANYTHING JUST INFORM ME OR JUST SEND ME THE REASON,
Kotak Bank is a fraudulent organization. First they harassed me for taking the card and when I submitted my documents, I started getting calls for kotak life insurance and similar products. I have still not heard about the status of my credit card application. It has been well over 3 months. When I called them they said that they had cancelled the application. When I asked for a reason, they did not have any. They said they would start the process again. This happened twice. It is ridiculous. I really doubt the credibility of this organization and feel pity for citizens like me who cant do much but bring it to the notice of other citizens on a forum like this.
By seeing these above commnets I am feeling good that my Credit card application got rejected . Inspite submitting all documents as per thier representative & a very good credit card payment history & finally getting a letter saying that my application got rejected is not worth having a credit card with this bank . I not only doubt the credibility of the bank but also, the way they work ... I am sure would have benn in much deeper trouble, if I hold a CC of theirs !! SKS
