[Resolved]  Bank Of Baroda — Illegal undue harassment

Address:Pune, Maharashtra

1. The C.D. no. 2 is a widow and she lives alone at this time in her flat in Woodland, Kothrud, Pune 411 038; as her son the C.D. no. 5 has gone abroad on work.

2. All of a sudden on 31st January 2012 at 11 am the C.D. no. 2 was visited two officers of the C.H. Bank. One of them was Lokya Naik, Chief Manager, Bank of Baroda (appeared to be a South Indian person mobile number [protected]) and other was a Maharashtrian gentleman with a name that sounded like Bharad.

3. Before the C.D. no. 2 could get a grip of the situation, the said men entered her flat and started telling her that they had come for "Vasuli" of her loan. They insisted that she must repay the outstanding amount, otherwise the Bank will proceed to attach her flat. Not only that, they also threatened that the Bank will initiate action through the "Interpol" against the son of the C.D. no. 2 i.e. C.D. no. 5, who is presently in USA on work.

4. The said two persons continued haranguing and badgering the C.D. no. 2 to pay at least some amount of the alleged outstanding before 31st March 2012. In this manner Shri. Naik and his companion kept harassing the C.D. no. 2 and refused to leave undtill (on the verge of an emotional breakdown) promised to contact them in ten days.

5. The C.D. no. 2 was so agitated and upset by all the threats that after the C.H.'s officers left she fainted and had to be rushed to the doctor (by her daughters). It was discovered that the C.D. no. 2 who is not otherwise herpertensive, got high Blood pressure, which caused the faint. The C.D. no. 2 has attached her doctor's certificate.

6. The action of the C.H. is highly objectionable and dangerous. More so considering that the matter is sub-judice. In fact, the Hon'ble Supreme Court has warned banks against intimidating borrowers in this manner.

7. The C.D. no. 2 reserves her right to file criminal and other complaints in the relevent forums. However, as the matter is sub-judice, she considered it necessary to inform this Hon'ble forum about the highly illegal and objectionable behaviour of the C.H. and its officers.

You are right from your part but also your mistake is that you did not read the terms and conditions given in the booklet of the credit card. Every bank cares about its reputation and its not locally but centrally handled. You have taken really long time to pay back the amount you used through Credit Card. Also you could get the statement of the Credit Card to know your monthly interest or any charges you would be charged if you delay in any payment.
Giving reason of the agent makes no sense here as these facilities are been outsourced. But Credit Card company makes sure of the terms and conditions are sent to you along with your card.
You can of course try and claim for this issue as the charges put by them are more than your transaction. But its left to Consumer Court to get you the solution for this.

Good luck.
