I fully agree with the same, as I am also facing the same mental harassment.

I was issued a HSBC gold credit card with add-on for life time free. After a year they charged me annual fee of Rs. 3000 which when contacted told me due to system upgrade this thing had happened. They reversed the charges that time and told you wont get charge me again for annual fee as its lifetime free card.

I also clearly stated that if I have to face annual charges next time then please cancel my card this time only as I don't wont to have further hassle. For which customer executive told me no its registered under LIFE TIME free card hence you wont have any annual charges. But second year they charged me again and upon calling them they refused to reverse the charges.

Now some people are calling me again and again that you pay the charges else come in Lok Nyalaya DELHI for which any way you have to spend money for travel and stay.
