Subject: Credit Card Harassment - CORE Complaint ID 10069
Hope YOU will at least listen, check & revert with actual information & data!!!
The same guy who abused me severely last afternoon, has called me up at least 20 times, since 09:30 today, from the same numbers!
Amazing how you allow such activities!

Subject: RE: Continuous Harassment by Stanchart Call Center (Credits Cards)
Please note that one of your collection agent, located somewhere around ITO, in New Delhi, called me up from the telephone number +91 11 4369 6208.
He called my cell phone & demanded immediate payments!
When I tried to explain (as below), he started using “ABUSIVE LANGUAGE” & asked me to come with the money to ITO!
Please note that I am escalating this to CORE also.
I will be glad to immediately terminate this card account, as soon as I get a clear understanding about this fiasco.
Regards,

PLEASE TREAT THIS AS EXTREMELY URGENT.
I WILL RESORT TO “LEGAL ACTION” IF NOT SETTLED IN 24 HOURS FROM NOW.
Kindly note that I hold a Standard Chartered bank account since 1987 & a Gold Credit card for at least 5 years now.
The card number terminates with 8944.
Every month, around this time, I receive endless calls, for clearing up dues!
As the caller refuses to “listen” and keeps on saying “please pay immediately”, I have detailed certain transactions below.
TOTAL DURING PERIOD 21, 736.57 44, 000+ Online
All statement data are from statements sent by Standard Chartered & available both in hard-copy & PDF.
I need the following clarifications, immediately:
a. DO I STILL NEED TO PAY STANDARD CHARTERED?
b. IF yes, why?
c. IF NO, then why the hell do I keep getting calls from your credit-collectors, every month, without fail?
d. I am going to press “Harassment Charges” against you, IF answer to Query # a, is NO,
e. By my accounting, based on statements sent by Standard Chartered & reconciled with ICICI statements, I have made “EXCESS PAYMENTS” almost to the tune of Rs. 22, 000,
f. I will also press legal charges, so that I get regular Interest on excess payments.
I am marking copy of this mail to all my mail accounts and also to my legal adviser.
Apart from pressing charges, via CORE, I will also terminate my 20 years old banking relationship with you, if there’s any delay on this.
