State Bank of India [SBI] Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir,

I am using SBI mobile banking service from last 1 months. in starting it worked correcly (means withour error). But from last few days, SBI MOBILE BANKING ask all details like Userid, MPIN, password and then going inside of application also. But while using some service, (when it is connect to GPRS) it is suddenly coming as "APPILCATION USES TOO MUCH MEMORY" and appication closed without complete my request.
I am using Sony Erricsson Mobile and model no is C-702

Now I am unable to use SBI Mobile banking service. So please clarify my problem.

Thanks & Regards,
Kumar Sambhav

I want bring to your notice related to that i have wrongly charged late payment fees and its related charges.

Let me give you the brief background of same.

Payment Statement Dated:[protected] and the amount was 55528.02 and it was due on 04-Nov-2010

I have made the payment through citi bank cheque and drop the same as on 31-Oct-2010 in the Thane Navpada Branch (Mumbai).
However after few days i check my account to see whether the amount is credited to my account or not, but it was not. After communicating with SBI Thane Branch as well with my citi bank i come to know that cheque is neither received by SBI and not by citibank for process.

So without wasting any time i have made the full payment Online on...

My Payment History is very good and i never have made any late payment.
However My Payment Statement for period 15-Nov-2010 is consist of Late Payment and its other related charges, which i don't think is happened due to me.

Following are the charges i have been wrongly charged

FEE - LATE PAYMENT (EXCL GST 72.10) 700.00
FIN CHARGE ON RETAIL (EXCL GST 312.50) 3033.94
TOTAL GST DEBIT FOR CURRENT STMT 384.60

But I have made the Payment before due date(05-Dec-2010) without the above Wrongly charges.

The story not ends here I have also charged with following

UNBANKABLE INVALID FEE(EXCL GST 51.50) 500.00

I do not understand what this charged is all about. Any way i will not going to pay all this charges which i don't think i should be charged.


I am following the above matter from last month with various people of SBI customer services but still i have not got the satisfactory response from any of them

Sir,

Subject: Harassment due to Abusive Recovery Practices,

Your bank/company had allured me and issued your State Bank of India's (SBI Card's) credit card. Presently credit card Number is [protected]. I have been meticulously and regularly asking your bank/company to submit your bills in original and paying amount of credit card upon receipt of bills.

2. I and nearly half a dozen officers of your bank have exchanged frequent telephonic talks, SMS's and emails letters, and representations in person, in connection with payment of your undue claims, my unresolved complaints and grievances.

3. I have been paying, however, I have declined to pay back amount charged to my account which is not relating to my actual use and charges, penalties, taxes etc levied for no fault on my part.

4. Since your frequent SMS's, emails, abusive and insulting telephone calls are causing me undue harassment, mental and emotional tension, inconvenience, expenses, agony, waste of my costly time and discomfort in addition to defamation, I have decided to initiate legal action under Banking Ombudsman Scheme 2006 or The Consumer Protection Act 1986, in addition to filing FIR's against the defaulting staff and recovery agents of the bank.

5. I add that Bank is indulging in unfair trade practice, illegal means and extortive approach. It has grossly violated and continues to breach:

A] Code of Bank’s Commitment to Customers of BCSBI

B] Fair practice code and collection policy mandated by RBI

C] Under mentioned master circulars of RBI on Credit Cards:

a. RBI/[protected]/32
DBOD.FSD.BC.17 / 24.01.011/ 2007-08 dated[protected]

b. RBI/2008-09/39
DBOD.FSD.BC.6/ 24.01.011/ 2008-09 dated[protected]


D] Judgments and directives of hon’ble SUPREME COURT OF INDIA in following cases:

a. Criminal Appeal arising out of SLP (Crl.) No. 4935 of 2006
ICICI Bank versus Shanti Devi Sharma & Others.

b. 2007 (2) MLJ 854 (SC) Manager, ICICI Bank Ltd versus Prakash Kaur & Others dated[protected]

E] Various provisions of The Consumer Protection Act 1986

F] Provisions of IPC and Cr PC

6. Before I initiate action against the bank, its staff and recovery agents, I finally call upon you to:

A] Stop calling me on phone or mobile or in person by your staff or recovery agents. You should now communicate to me by written letters duly signed and under the original seal of your bank/company and mentioning the name with sirname department designation, office address with pin code, office phone number with STD code, official mobile phone number and email of the competent person who signs the letter, only at my above address followed by emails. Letters be sent by registered or speed post only.

B] Provide me by speed post and also email within 15 days of receipt of this notice following details of outstanding dues if any:

a. date of debit

b. full and exhaustive details of claim with justification.

c. amount of claim.

d. supporting proof to substantiate each claim.

e. Pending bills in original which have not been supplied till date by you despite unlimited number of reminders by telephonic calls, letters, and representations in person.

7. In case if I do not receive details as above within time limit stated hereinabove, I shall presume that the Bank has no claims outstanding against me in their records. Please do not use abbreviations which a common man cannot understand. As per my understanding from incomplete records of your bills I have nothing to pay to the bank towards use of your card.

8. I reiterate that, I believe in fair dealings which and I have done my level best by giving unlimited number of representations to your bank/ company and I am prepared to pay to your bank/company the actual amounts spent by me and excluding the amounts which is not relating to my actual use and charges, penalties, taxes etc levied for no fault on my part.

As already communicated to employees of your bank/company, I am not interested in settlement of any amount or pay less than what is due from me.
As prescribed by Reserve Bank of India, you have to supply the credit report by charging up to a maximum amount of Rs.50.00 (Rupees Fifty only), accordingly enclosed herewith is the cheque number 041991 dated 30-Nov-2010 drawn on Union bank of India Jalandhar for Rs.50.00 (Rupees Fifty only) towards supply of my credit report, if any, filed by your company in credit rating agency e.g. CIBIL, by registered or speed post only, so as to reach me within seven days from the date of submission of this communication in your local office at my location. You shall also confirm in writing that your company's fee structure is Rs.50.00 (Rupees Fifty only) or less than Rs.50.00 (Rupees Fifty only) for the supply of credit report.
If you have submitted my credit report, to any other credit rating agency, other than CIBIL also, you shall confirm it in writing by letter under the original seal and signature of the competent employee of your company as explained above and you shall ask for the fee mentioning the amount of fee and the same shall be deposited by me on hearing from you at your local centre at Jalandhar for the supply of the certified and original copy of such credit report by you by registered or speed post only.
