Hi atif,

Refer our telephonic discussion, i was absolutely shocked to know that there is a joining fee of rs. 899 on my credit card!!! In spite of my hesitation to take a second credit card (As i am not an avid user of plastic money), i was pursued by your telemarketing team saying that the card if free to use for lifetime (No joining/subscription/any other sort of fees) along with various benefits available as a promotional offer for a limited period. To my first disappointment, i understood that there is no offer with bookmyshow.com. And all the aforementioned came to my notice within a week of my card purchase and i am unsure how many more are there to follow!!!

First of all, i don’t need a credit card which has a fee when i already enjoy the luxury o[censored]sing one free for lifetime. I have opted for your credit card only because there is no fee to take it. Irrespective of what beneficial offers you provide, i would always stay away from getting a card which has some kind of hidden charges. My current credit card issuing bank is offering me a credit increase along with a few bundled offers without any charge/fee or whatsoever for lifetime. It is nonsensical to pay rs. 899 even if i don’t use your credit!!!

Secondly, this came as a big blot on my trust on indusind bank as i feel that to sell a credit card an outright lie was used. Trusting your words, i have referred one of my friends to go for indusind bank credit card which has already put me in bad light.

If you want me to continue using the card, i need to be assured that there are not any sort of charges for the card for lifetime. If not, you may send your representative to take your card back and i shall settle my outstanding. I would rather use a card with straightforward offers/charges and not with twisted ones.

You are requested to acknowledge this email on receipt and take it up further. I am awaiting your reply on the matter.

Regards,
K guru prasadh

Hi atif,

Thanks for your email. Is the credit card that i use free of any sort of fees/annual subscription?

Also, what are the charges per transaction if the card is used in a foreign country? I appreciate, if you can share a file with those details.

Hi atif,

I am trying to book a movie ticket on bookmyshow.com using my indusind bank credit card that i received recently. However, the website says that my card is not eligible for ‘buy 1 and get 1’ offer which i was told is applicable on my credit card.

Kindly check this and revert soonest possible.
