Dear Sir,

I am a HDFC bank credit card holder. i have been using it since 3to4 months and make all the due payment before due date.

[protected] at Riga at ldz. Ticket total Rs 33935.85/-.


Knowing the fact, credit card no. [protected] was with me and I was out of town, I was startled to read the aforesaid information of two fraud transactions. I immediately called HDFC credit card customer care service at ([protected]) and revealed the same information to Ms. Nisha (HDFC bank customer care representative).

Name of customer care representative - Ms. Nisha
Date & Time - 12th Dec 2011 at around 4.25pm

Brief: On 12th Dec 2011, I received a sms from LM-HDFCBK at 4.02pm informing me transaction of Rs. 25050.23/- made through my credit card no. [protected] at Riga at ldz.

Knowing the fact, credit card no. [protected] was with me and I was out of town (Uttar Pradesh) I was startled to read the aforesaid information of two fraud transactions. I immediately called HDFC credit card customer care service at ([protected]) and revealed the same information to Ms. Nisha (HDFC bank customer care representative). Ms. Nisha blocked the credit card no [protected] and taken a request of replacement.
Keeping in mind, I never shared my credit card details with any one, such fraud transaction is still improbable?
On 14th Dec 2011, I received new HDFC bank Titanium International Credit Card (Master Card) No. [protected]. I thank you for your prompt action.
I would like to mention here that I am not liable for any payment against this fraud transaction since it was indeed fraud transaction and being a responsible and genuine customer I informed HDFC immediately.
I request you to confirm me the waiver of Rs. 33935.85/- at earliest.
________________________________________________________________________________...⇄


As a reply to my email dated 16th Dec 2011, HDFC bank without investigation, held me liable for the payment. i reverted to their email on 20th Dec 2011 following is the content of email which was sent to customercare

Dear Officier,

Firstly, I am literally puzzled to see your trailing email, now I suspect whether you have read my email or not because in my earlier email I have explicitly mentioned that the said transaction came to my notice only after receiving SMS to my mobile from LM-HDFCBK. I did also mention you that the transaction was fraud transaction and you can approach Cyber-Crime team to catch culprit.
Secondly, if you get time to read my email carefully please glance at the para no. 5 where I questioned you that how this transaction is possible since I have never shared my credit card details to anybody.
Further, you should appreciate that on receipt of transaction information through SMS from LM-HDFCBK, I immediately lodged my complaint to customer care number. Once again, writing below customer care executive name and other details for your perusal.
Name of customer care representative - Ms. Nisha
Date & Time - 12th Dec 2011 at around 4.25pm
Reference No. - [protected]
I received another credit card (replacement) Ms. Bhakti (HDFC representative) who handed over this card, clearly confirmed that I am not liable to pay for this fraud transaction.
Your trailing email has forced me to think about your intention of forcing me to pay for fraud transaction inspite of all the clarification. You should find out how this transaction happened and if required should lodge complaint under cyber crime.
Please clarify soon so that I can may my last bill payment which something around Rs.2000/-.
________________________________________________________________________________...⇄

HDFC bank again held me responsible for the payment, therefore i approached senior managment and requested them to resolve the issue

Following is the content of email which was sent to senior management on 30th Dec 2011

________________________________________________________________________________...⇄

I have been very honest with you since I started using your credit card. As far as payment of any fraud transactions is concerned please be intimated that i am not liable for the payment.

Being a responsible customer as soon as I received the intimation of this fraud transaction i immediately informed your customer care.

Further, I repeatedly informed you that it is undoubtedly hacker’s job and you must investigate it but it appears that you just wish to force customer to pay the money though he is not liable.
I wish to inform you that I am not liable for the payment and as a responsible customer I did my part of the job by intimating you immediately.

I again say, I am not liable for the payment and I shall not pay it.
Your approach of forcing me to pay the money which I never used will put me in mental agony and nothing more.

You can go through the history of previous transactions which have been done through my card; I have always paid the due money before the due date. My only online transaction was with Indian Railway and why can’t you look on the other side that while I was doing online transaction with Indian Railway some hacker must have done something wrongful act to pick my password…

Your prejudice approach will compel me to take legal help to get this resolved…
I again repeat, Instead of blaming customer, please do the investigation with intention to dig out the culprit so that your other customers are not suffered with the same problem.

I hope you shall not encourage to discourage the customer to be in relationship with HDFC.

Awaiting your positive response.

My all hope is now on your without prejudice decision

On 29/10/2012 22:51, I received two SMS saying that my credit card has been used for transactions -
1. Frankfurt at Luthansa - Rs. 91,697.37
2. MRS BS Cupboard at Pekin - Rs. 110.96

Please note that there was no confirmation from me before approval of this transaction.

I confirm that these transactions are fraudlent and I haven't participated in any of these transactions. I also confirm that I have my credit card with me. On calling HDFC customer care, they blocked the credit card immediately but, asked me to fill cardholder dispute form and drop it in the given drop box (which I don't have receipt). I am not seeing any progress on this as this form is yet to reach Chennai and then investigation will start. They are even not ready to hide disputed transaction from the next bill.

Its a huge amount have lost my peace of mind and hence, reporting this complaint.

I have raised FIR against the theft as HDFC guys expect "7 working days" for cardholder dispute form to get accepted.

Surprisingly, I got the email statement today and the transaction wasn't hidden from there. In fact, the amount was Rs 92926.29
At the moment of fraud, I asked them to cancel the credit card. But, they issued a new credit card and charged extra Rs 3654.42 on name of various fees and taxes.

I have got the card blocked due to frequent fraudulent actions on HDFC credit card.

I have tried contacting the hdfc services for multifactor authentication, but it seems that multifactor authentication is not available.

Complaint Number: 926580
I tried to withdraw money from my account on 22/06/2015.The ATM transaction got timed out, but still amount was been debited from my account.As they informed the amount will automatically credited back to my account I waited Till 27/06/2015. And then raised a complaints regarding this. Where the representative informed me usually it takeS 5businesses days to be credited back. So again I waited till today 1/7/2015. It's so ridiculous that I still haven't got my money back and worst part is representative today stated that it will take 7more days from d day I made complaint. Why should I wait for such a long time for nothing I did. Mistake is in your part that even after timed out the money was debited which I never got. How come HDFC is so slow in processing such a small issue.
