ICICI Bank will always offer the lowest rate in the market for new customers and as such they gain the maximum market share since a lower interest rate easily attracts customers since its a life time investments for most and even a small difference in the interest rate makes a BIG difference.

The interest rate is pegged to a PLR (Prime Lending Rate) so they usually offer a higher discount to the PLR to new customers and therefore resulting into offering a lower interest rate than the market.

Once the customer has availed of the loan, thats when the real story unfolds. For a floating interest rate loan, the PLR only goes up and never goes down!!! At the slightest tightening of the CRR or SLR, the PLR is increased and as such your floating interest rates increase. Not much can be done by the customer since the PLR has gone up and discount %age from the PLR is constant or fixed as per the agreement.

But whenever the interest rates in the market go down in the market due to the liquidity increase or other factors, the PLR remains constant but the discount rate for ONLY the new customers is increased as such bringing the effective rate of interest for them lower than what the older customers are paying!!!

So many time you will find, as a old and loyal customer, you are paying almost 4% higher ROI than what a new customer is paying to teh same bank for the same loan.

Also, since there are penalties involved with prepayment and also, reluctance of customers to change banks due to the large sums of money involved with home loans, the customer keep losing Large Amounts of money due to this cunning strategy of the Bank!!!

NEVER TAKE A HOME LOAN FROM ICICI BANK LTD!!!

Dear Sir (dated 21.09.08)

Pl refer to our telephonic conversation 18.09.08 as under:

I am paying my installments of Rs 417/- regularly every month. I delayed to pay my installments for 5-7 days in three occasions out of which once I have paid the interest with late fee of Rs 350/- also. I have not paid the late fees for the two other occasions as I have felt that such charges are not genuine and had asked you waive off by my mail dated 11.05.08.

I was shocked to know that the installment of Rs 417/- which I am paying regularly every month is not adjusted toward my installment. The bank is adjusting my installment amount towards outstanding of late fees and showing in their records that I have not paid the installment. Due to this bank is again charging late fees and as of today they make the outstanding amount of Rs 3179 where as I have paid all my installment in time. Except in three occasions I have delayed for 7-10 days.

In back side of each of my cheque I have written "installment for the month of", how my installment amount can be adjusted toward late fees that too without my knowledge and also at the same time make me defaulter by not paying installments in time and charging more money towards late fee and interest. Also bank has never communicated in regard to adjusting installment amount in late fees.

More apart from that bank has not replied to my mail dated 11.05.08 followed by reminder dated 24.05.08. When I have written strong mail to customer care on dated 15.09.08, I received a standard reply on 15.09.08 that "We tried to contact you but could not establish the contact. We request you to confirm your mobile number for further assistance." The bank has my landline no. On every installment I am putting my mobile no in bank slip. How it is possible that they could not be able to make contact with us. Why they haven't has asked my mobile no in reference to my mail of 11.05.08 it self. More apart from that bank says monthly credit card statement is the reply of your complain letter.

Many times statements have not come though I am depositing my installment every month as I know my responsibility very well.

I had purchased the camera on 22.06.07, logically I have to pay installment every month before 22nd of every month but I am seeing that due date of installment gets reduced every month and now it has come from 22 to 21 to 20 to 19 to 18 to 17. What is this calculation? Because this reason I get delayed in giving my installment for 1-2 days.

I have asked to give me the statement mentioning cheque no, cheque date, cheque amount and deposited date but customer care refused to give me the same. As right for information act the bank should provide me such statement so that if require I can to talk to bank officials with reference to that.

Since bank has not answered my complain by mail dated 11.05.08, I requested customer care to settle my account by putting 11.05.08 as cut off date for settlement of dues. The customer care has refused to do the same.

I have asked customer care to give me the mail id of higher official to whom I can talk with in this matter, the customer care didn't provide the same to me.

The bank is forcing me to become an defaulter that too in the event where I am paying my installments regularly every month. If bank's stand is not going to change, then I have no option other than I pay my balance installment in one glance. As per my record I have paid installment up to sep'08. Also if bank feels they are free to spoil by credit history. I still expect that my bank will come with an amicable solution and the solution will be definately favorable to its gold card customer.

Pl reply asap.

Subject: Outstanding amount in credit card no [protected] due to unethical practices.

Respected Sir,

Pl find the copy of my mail dated 11.05.08 to customer care in regard to outstanding amount against my credit card. I wish to inform that I am regular in paying my installments against the purchase of camera in 0% interest scheme. Three times I delayed to make payment for 7-10 days and once I had also paid the late fee of Rs 350/-. My ICICI Bank has now made outstanding of more than Rs 3000/- towards late fee. One side we are told that we are a gold customer for the bank by issuing a gold card and on the other hand we are forced to feel that the bank is robbing us. From the credit card services point of view the definition of customer in my eyes is now take cust and mar. More apart from that I even didn’t get the reply of my mail dated 11.05.08 from your customer care office. Your customer care call center is absolutely meaningless. He talks like a parrot. Your local banks did not entertain any credit card complains. Such infrastructure of customer care is been made by the bank intentionally so that customer can not do any thing by complaining locally with bank’s branch office resulting in increase in outstanding amount which is the sole purpose of the bank in order to earn more. In other terms the white paper method for robbing the customer. I have used the credit card for the first time for the purchasing of camera in 0% interest and it is unfortunate that bank’s mentions 0% interest in product leaflet if purchased through ICICI credit card but at same time never mentions about the late fee or rules or other hidden charges. I am very much disappointed as the camera, which I purchased in 0% interest scheme, do you feel that one will pay 36% more amount towards late fee or any hidden charges. Also while opening credit cards your representative never talks about the late fees nor negative points or rules about the credit card. They talk only positive points to increase their sales. In fact there is no transparency in the credit card business. More apart from that they just take signature on the blank form. Any way I am very much disappointed and therefore I am surrending my credit card in 4 pieces by dropping the same in drop box at Vallabh Vidyanagar branch. I have made up a mind to not to pay any extra charges, if required I will take this case to your Chairman or Director, Consumer Court, RBI, Finance Ministry and Media. I would also like to see what benefits does my bank give to a gold card customer or what is the mission and quality policy or objectives does my bank have from customer point of view. Is it justified that one side Government of India is waiving the loans of our “Kissan Bhai” and other side my bank ICICI are finding out the unethical ways, methods and means to earn money? Kindly settle my account immediately.

Dear Sir

My credi card no is [protected]. I have avail the facility of credit card for the purchase of kodak camera on o% finance sceme. The monthly installment was Rs 417/- for two years. I was not able to pay instalment in time for couple of days for which I had paid Rs 350/- towards the late fee once. Simultaneously again for two months I had delayed in payment for couple of days due to my out station trip and for which again I was charge late fees and I have not paid because when I had purchased the camera on o% finance sceme and also I was not made aware about this late fee transactions during the purchase either by bank throgh leaflets or by shopkeeper. I had delayed in payment of few days only i.e 7-10 days. Due to this little delay I had also given the instalment in advance in order to compensate this little delay on my account. Since it is a o% finance scheme, how late fee can be charged? If anything has to be charged is the interest for the delay period for Rs 417 only. Any how I have paid once and I am not willing to pay further.

I have received a letter from bank (ref no cc/28-03/35868 dated 08.04.08) stating oustanding amount of 1650.71 where as I have completely paid instalments upto April'08. Also your letter says that non-adherence of the same may impact your credit history and we may share this with credit bureaus. In this regard I would request you to kindly wave of my late payment fees and this is possible as it has been done to many cutomers against valid reason, as per the statement of banks represensative in counter. So I once again request you to do the needful.

Secondly I have gold privelage card with good money transactions through savings account, salary account demat account, mutual fund and life term pension policies. Hope looking to my substancial money transactions with your bank, hope my request will be considered.

In case my request is not considered, pl inform me I will pay the full balance amount but not the late fees. Also I have to close my credit card with all money transactions through my accounts like saving, salary, demat, mutual funds, pension plans etc. Also you are free to share this to credit bureaus.

Waiting for your reply pl.

From last one month I am requesting ICICI Bank Customer Care Serive to provide policy document for interest calculation mechanism based on part payment done by Home loan customer. But am deeply pain to state that they can't provide such basic policy document. I think they can’t provide policy document due to 3 reasons.

(1) ICICI Bank is not such mature bank, which have policy document for interest calculation mechanism based on part payment done by Home loan customer
(2) ICICI Bank follows unfair trade practices and unscrupulous exploitation of customer
(3) ICICI Bank customer care is useless who can’t provide the policy documents which ICICI Bank have already provided to them and willing spoiling brand name and goodwill of ICICI Bank in competitive market.


I hope to get fruitful response with policy document from Customer Care department of

Dear All,

I am facing some problems with ICICI Bank Personal Loan I have taken on my wife's name. I am providing my correspondence with so called "Genuine Bank" (or "Day light Robbers"??? you decide). I hope you will understand the issue and will not repeat the mistake I did. (of having any kind of relations with ICICI Bank)

Here is wht I wrote to ICICI Banks Customer Services

What would you like to say: Dear Sir/Madam,

I have Been using your Bank's Credit Card regularly for around last 7-8 months (Ac No.-[protected]). I received a call from some o[censored]r executive in the month of june 2008 regarding some pre approved loan of Rs.1 lac. where he mentioned that the said amount will be credited into my account No.[protected] if I take said loan, and the EMI of around Rs. 2900 will be debited from the same amount from July 2008 onwards. I agreed & taken the said "loan".

In the month of July I deposited around Rs. 3000 in my said Account No.[protected]. later on I came to know It has not been yet debited & the amount is still in my account only.

Next month I made a call at your call centre, regarding the same, and Now they tell me I have to activate some auto debit facility to do that.(where the hell is that guy, who said my EMI will be directly debited?).I thought that's fine, I will pay it through cheque this time, & asked about the account No. to be written on the cheque to an employee of the bank, who instructed tht the account no. is same one that is for the credit card([protected]).I use to travell a lot & so I dont see the statements regularly & I follow the messages you send to my mobile. So I deposited the cheqhe of EMI of Rs.4683 along with my regular credit card payment cheque of Rs.13318. You can find the details in my A/c No. [protected] as on 9th August, 2008. Where u will find that I m the only who paid advance of Rs.4683 for my credit card payment (the exact amount that was supposed to be paid in my loan A/c No.[protected]) before even puchasing anything though your credit card for the applicable period. Usually people enjoy credit & the pay on bill date, & surprisingly I paid in advance !!! thanks to the guy at your desk in the bank who makes us wait into the line till the token no. comes & without going into details gives solutions. Amazing !!!

Not over yet, Your people started to give us call for payment of EMI. Meanwhile My father died in Rajkot & I was busy with the issues relating to that. But leaving all those things I had to check with your bank & the credit card department regarding all this mess-up, as I am bound to do as a customer of your "esteemed" bank.(Eventhough I paid cheques of ICICI Bank only, Your departments can not solve this inter-departmental mess-up). Finally I found wht you wanted, when I went back to my place in Ahemedabad and seen your statements. Charges of Around Rs. 2400 in my tenure of 3 months of loan with an EMI of Rs. 2900 odd. Very Nominal !!! that too for the mistake the representatives of your bank made.

One more issue- I have noticed that there are some Interest charges you have levied in my A/c No.[protected] around Rs. 32 or so. I went to your regional office for all these issues. & they said the the charges in the form interest of Rs. 32 are levied because of late payment of partial amount. Do you know wht was the partial amount I could not pay as I was not in Ahmedabad & I instructed someone else to pay on my behalf? Rs. 0.36 !!! the bill amount was Rs. 13318.36 & I paid Rs. 13318. (also Rs. 4683 by mistake) I can not understand how it can still show an unpaid amount of Rs. 0.36 still. & even if it shows, how can u ask for an interst amount of Rs. 32.43 on the dues of Rs. 0.36 for a period of one month ??? I am a C.A. & MBA in Finance, but this calculation was far beyond my entire life's knowledge. Wht is the rate do you charege for interest.

No wondor as anything can happen with the name "ICICI" !!! regreat dealing with your bank-especially credit card (I want to surrender)

Finally I want to say that, I am ready (as I was ever) to pay all my EMIs "the way you want" (Auto Debit/Cheque/Cash) but please this time accept my EMI. And also revise all the chareges & interest which you have charged UNETHICALLY to all my accounts.(without reversal of charges I will not pay anything)

Ankur Khakhar

If you can notice, they did not mention anything about the actual issue of around charges or Rs.2400 and resolved the issue of around Rs. 32 charges. Amazing !!! & when I asked them to send me the final settlement amount (because I dont want to continue any relationship with ICICI Bank any more) they did not reply till now. I am waiting for my next statement to come when they lay more charges for outstanding amount even though I am ready to pay their entire amount

I submitted Account Opening Form in ICICI Bank, Shalimar Bagh Branch, New Delhi on 30.08.2008 regarding Zero-Balance Savings Account to be linked to my Demat Account held with DP-Religare Securities Limited. I was handed a Welcome kit containing ATM Card, Cheque Book etc. with the assurance the same will get activated in 3-4 days time.
I am following the branch and customer care for the same for last 10-15 days. In this regard, Customer Care advises to contact branch while branch executives daily gives the assurance to wait for one more day and the same will get activated. Nothing has changed for the last 10-15 days and I am feeling helpless and bearing losses as I am unable to trade. I am very much mentally disturbed by the poor services of ICICI Bank and false assurance given by their executives. May I request you to kindly do the needful in this regard at the earliest?
Thanking you in anticipation,

Sir / Madam,

I am a customer with ICICIpulife, holding some policies, for smart kids and for Lifetime super. Through the web access I was not able to access all the policies. Therefore, I have registered for the same twice, (Req. ID. CRD43215, CRD43216, once I did not note the request ID). Then thrice I have contacted through mail. Twice they have given me the new pass words, but still the condition is the same. The two policies which are not featured in the website, I never receive the premium receipt for Policy # 04681033 and the premium notice for policy # 06397068 regularly. I do not know
whether the customer care is really concerned about the customers or not. I receive SMS every month that they have dispatched the receipts, but I never receive it regularly. And in spite of all these not even one customer care executive has ever contacted me, though I was informed through the mail that they will do. The two E-mail ID which was given to the grievence cell (jaspreet.[protected]@iciciprulife.com, and [protected]@iciciprulife.com) seems to be wrong becuse it did not deliver the mail which I had send. Hope that, atleast this will solve my problem at the earliest.

I have applied for OF withdraw at PF Office Gurgaon, They have sent to cheques one is for EPF and another
for PF to My Account number, ICICI Bank Manesar Branch. But i have received only one transaction in my
account . Means only one cheque has been credited .

I have done lots of followup with PF office and Bank. Finaly i have seen Bank Statement at PF office where
both the cheques has been debited from their account .

But the ICICI Bank is still saying that they have not received perticular cheque. even Both the cheques have been sent through same envelop . and have beed debited from PF Accounts.

I am unable to understand How it happened.

Sir,
My A/c in your ICICI credit card No. is [protected] and I am holding the card for last six years. I have obted for deducting the entire amount from my ICICI A/C at Edappally branch every month. I have not defaulted so far except once when I did not get the statement and did not know how much money should be in my A/c. I refered the matter to the customer care and the additional charges were reverted back duly. Thank you very much for that. Even though, subsiquently, the money is deducted from my A/c, in my july statement, there is an interest charge andservice tax charge. Kindly verify it and revert the charges back to my A/c.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully.

ICICI Credit Card Division,

Credit card No : [protected] Name : Mr.Vinayak Pothu

Dear Sir,

I refer to my above Credit Card for which I would like to inform you that what
problems I have faced for the last couple of months and why I have stopped
payment the details are as follows.

First of all when ICICI Credit Card sales team contacted me saying that I am eligible for the credit card and with the Credit Card there is monthly ICICI Lombard insurance of Rs.200/- which has to be paid every month. So then I have applied for the Credit Card and instead of one card I received three cards I called up and said that I need only one not three but the Customer Care told me to keep the balance two as its free. Coming month I received ICICI Credit Card bill and Rs.4932/- debited towards ICICI Lombard Insurance for two years. I was very much shocked after seeing such a high bill as when the Credit Card sales team told me that there will be monthly debit of Rs.200/- for my Insurance but instead on monthly they debited two years premium in one time. Since I was having a small salary I was not able to make the payment in one installment I have agreed for monthly debit. I tried calling ICICI Lombard they told to call ICICI Credit Card as the reversal will be done at Credit Card department. The Complaint No for your reference is 90607932, I have followed at least two to three months but nothing happened. Then I used the Credit Card for which I have made the payment. But I used to pay only that amount which I had used thru Credit Card.After six months credit card department started charging me Late payment Charges & Finance Charges for the ICICI Lombard Insurance of Rs.4932/-, I got very angry also called Customer Care they told me to pay the Insurance premium I explained them that I am getting high salary and could not pay the premium amount so simply cancel the policy but they forcefully told me pay the amount. I got very much disturbed so immediately I stopped making payment for the Credit Card. Then after three month the recovery agents called me and told me to pay the amount otherwise I will face serious consequences. I have told them very softly what problem I am faced about the Insurance and requested them to please solve it at the earliest and close the chapter once and for all. They also told me to go at ICICI Lombard I also went there but nothing happened. Then after some days they called again also visited my residence abusing me and my family for not making payments, I told them to solve my Insurance problem and reverse the Late payment & Finance Charges I will pay the balance amount but they could not do it. They used to call me everybody by using very abusive language with me & my family. Then in April’08 the lady named Shabana from ICICI Credit Card department (Contact No.65263372 & Office Name – Siddhi Business Solutions)called me saying that my account will be settled for Rs.10000/- told me to pay Rs.5000/- and the balance amount to paid after receiving the letter from ICICI Credit Card Division. I believed in her words but I was not having idea that I am getting cheated. Then I met Mr.Sushil (Contact No.[protected]) at Jogeshwari railway station and handed over the Chq of Rs.5000/- he gave me the receipt and the chq got cleared and then I called her for the letter but her landline has been discontinued I enquired with Mr.Sushil again he said that Shabana has left the organization. I was very disappointed that ICICI bank which has very good reputation in the marked is behaving so cheaply with the customers. I have made several complaints to ICICI Credit Card division but no action has been taken yet.

Then in the month of July’08 Mr.Santosh ( Contact No.[protected] & Office Name – Resolution Service) from ICICI Credit Card Bank called for the payment I told him everything from the day one till Shabana incident, He told that some agency organization make false promises and cheats the customers. He taken me into confidence and told me that my problem will be solved and will be settled at the earliest. He asked chq of Rs.3260/- towards Credit Card dues and he told me that after showing to his seniors he will settle my account and also told me to right at the back side of the chq that the chq is only for the security purpose and cannot be deposited. I was confident that Mr.Santosh will solve my problem so I gave him chq of Rs.3260/- dt.15.09.08 as security chq which will not to be presented in any Bank.Then I started calling Santosh hoping at least he will solve my problem and I will close the credit card issue but he just said he does not know me, I called at least three to four times he just ignored my calls then I felt some fishy then I immediately made stop payment for the chq of Rs.3260/- dt.15.09.08. But on 16th Sept’08 received SMS from ICICI Bank Credit Card Division saying Thankyou for the payment of Rs.3260/- towards Credit Card dues. I am very much shocked once again when I given them the chq of Rs.3260/- only for security deposit and which is being clearly written at the back side of the chq that “ Please do not deposit the cheque. This chq is issued only for the security. But still they have deposited the chq which means that the ICICI Bank has lost name & reputation .I have been cheated by the ICICI Bank Credit Card Division both the times.

I am very much angry also very much disappointed that ICICI Bank which is such
a largest private organization is behaving so cheaply with their customers.

I am having all the details from starting till date and also supporting documents
for which I can fight in the Consumer Court. I will be presenting my case in the
Consumer Care within 10 days from the date of the letter. The Agency’s which is
being appointed by ICICI Bank has to be severely punished because of these
agencies most of the people commit suicide due to harassment and torturing. I am
also being harassed with the phone calls by using abusive languages for me & my
family.

I will be filing my case firstly wit ICICI Bank Credit Card, secondly Siddhi
Business Solutions, thirdly Resolution Services within 10 days from the date of
the letter.

Waiting for your quick response.


Thanking You,
Yours Sincerely,
