Hi There,
I would like to inform you that I’m card holder from 2011 with Hdfc and paying my debts on time from day one however I have done one transaction with some ecommerce site and got cheated by them after raising to many complaints on there site when I was not getting resolution. I have raised transaction dispute with Hdfc and spoke on customer care to know more about the process first executive have given me wrong information that he will hold that payment and I will not be charged for the same but that never happened so another guy told me that after raising dispute I will get help from bank to recovery this amount which is not happening even. So now when I have stopped the payments after being frustrated so Im getting threats from collection team which the call there self payment assistance department. I called by Mr. Saurav who was very rude and was saying that we will track you and civil kharab kar dunga apko daily calls karunga aur esse hi tension dunga apko paise toh dene hi honge rather than listening to me and try to understand my concern he started shouting on me and was very rude to me even.
Below mentioned are some rules sent to me by lawyer for my reference.
RBI Rules:
(iii) Fair Practices in debt collection
(a) In the matter of recovery of dues, banks / NBFCs may ensure that they, as also their agents, adhere to the extant instructions on Fair Practice Code for lenders (circular DBOD. Leg. No. BC. 104 /09.07.007 / 2002–03 dated May 5, 2003) as also IBA’s Code for Collection of dues and repossession of security. In case banks / NBFCs have their own code for collection of dues it should, at the minimum, incorporate all the terms of IBA's Code.
(b) In particular, in regard to appointment of third party agencies for debt collection, it is essential that such agents refrain from action that could damage the integrity and reputation of the bank / NBFC and that they observe strict customer confidentiality. All letters issued by recovery agents must contain the name and address of a responsible senior officer of the card issuing bank whom the customer can contact at his location.
(c) Banks / NBFCs / their agents should not resort to intimidation or harassment of any kind, either verbal or physical, against any person in their debt collection efforts, including acts intended to humiliate publicly or intrude the privacy of the credit card holders’ family members, referees and friends, making threatening and anonymous calls or making false and misleading representations.
I would like to inform that even I don’t want to keep this money but I just need some help from which I guess will not get.
Regards
Sachin
