Dear Sir

I have been persuing ICICI bank to send me the foreclosor statment for my Loan a/c no LPDEL[protected] for the past 4-5 months but every month i was getting only asurances and no details.it was only yestaerday that i received my statement but not only the statment was delayed but am given 10-15 calls every day from the collection centre asking me to make the payment.

Its very difficult to answer calls when in meating,while driving or even at the time of having food.

I have been telling the bank that until and unless i get the statement i will not make the payment as every month i was making payment to them on the assurance that the statement would be sent after that but unfortunatley never received and also am told to visit the branch to clarify and not at any other branch but the branch designated by them.Over and above i have been lavied various kinds of charges like cheque bouncing,late payment , interest on pending instalments and forcloure charges also which i feel that RBI has already abolished (foreclosor charges)

its been a very horrowing experience once again with icici bank as earlier have faced problems with ICICI dmat account which i closed somehow,then with thier Saving bank a/c which also was closed , credit card division which i feel will surrender and this time with loan a/c.

i would like you to intervene and help me to get my problems solved and let me have minimum of phone call from ICICI bankfor the recovery.

Dear Madam, Thanks for the QAB charges which have been returned by you.Regarding illigal penality imposed on me for bouncing of cheque is totally wrong. It seems that ICICI BANK DO NOT WANT TO MAINTAIN good relations with poor account holders due to strong supports of rich account hoders.According to my survey many account holders of ICICI BANK are not operating their account due to not maintaining Rs10000/-QAB or illegal charges being deducted by bank.
This bank is being run for only business man,brokers or others having sufficiant funds I will suggest Mrs. Chanda kochhar to change the policy of the bank and maintain uniform policy like PSU Banks. Please do not become rich bank by looting poor account holders.I pridict that icici bank share will be availabe four times below under present stock value in a very near future due to less earnings.Earlier, prior to year 2005 ICICI BANK was a very good bank,working on clear path. Now the story has been changed, no system and nothing is transparent. THANKS.I HAVE GRATITUDE FOR MR. ANUP BAGCHI. He is the person who can do better for this bank.

Dear Mr. Khanna,

We refer your mail addressed to Mr. Anup Bagchi regarding Savings Account Numbers[protected] and[protected].

The charges of Rs. 2,481.00 debited towards Quarterly Average Balance has been credited to the Savings Account Number[protected] on January 21, 2010 as a service credit.

The cheque number 339635 amounting to Rs. 11,000.00 was returned for reason "Insufficient funds" as the available balance in the account on January 6, 2010 was Rs. 2,480.55 in the Savings Account Number[protected]. Hence, we will be unable to reverse cheque return charges.

We have attached the scan copy of letter sent to your communication address for your reference.

Dear Team,
This is to bring to your notice that Two Fraud transactions have been done using my ICICI Credit Card for which I have raised dispute and details are below:

1. 25-Oct-09: Rs. 18,826 - Eazee Go1 Travel - SR#[protected]
2. 26-Oct-09: Rs. 26,998 - Eazee Go1 Travel - SR#[protected]

I was promised that an Investigation Officer will be assigned to my case and within 10 days will contact me and will share the investigation details as per progress. It was also told that it takes max of 90 days to close the case and at the end a detailed investgation report will be shared with me.
Unfortunately, no one from ICICI Bank Authority has approached me so far and the case has been closed in bank's favor asking me to pay this heavy amount. I don't even know who is looking into the case from Bank and neither Customer Care can answer that no anyone from bank offices I have gone to.
This is completely unprofessional behavior due to which I am suffering and being harassed.

I have approached the vendor through which this transaction was done and they are not ready to share any details about the transaction and will only tell Bank Authority.
When I reach ot to ICICI Customer Care, they are not of any help and keep transferring my calls to various departments and people and I have to wait for hours on calls to get any response which also is of "NO ASSISITANCE".

I am not able to understand Why these transaction keeps on getting Debited and Credited on my account?

I would request to roll-back these trasaction on my card and share the complete details of the investigation like who has done these transactions and on whose name these online ticket booking was done. I would like to bring those culprits to justice.

I have completely lost trust in ICICI Bank and feel very bad that such kind of "UNPROFESSIONAL BEHAVIOUR" can be there from one of the most prestigiou bank of the country.

Please Help.

Thanks & Regards

Dear Sir
I had taken house loan of Rs 13.86 lakhs from ICICI Bank Indore branch in Jun 2005 vide account no LBIND [protected]. The monthly installment for the aforesaid loan was always paid in time. Since I am in Indian Air Force, after one year i.e in Sep 2006 My Group Insurance Society sanctioned a loan of similar amount at 7.0 % interest rate. I decided to foreclose my remaining loan with ICICI bank but they charged me a foreclosure fee of Rs 61452/ vide their reciept no. CL[protected] dated 09 Sep 2006 ( Scanned Copy is Enclosed for your ready reference). I have taken up with their customer grievances at couple of times but their is no response. Now the honourable Supreme Court has also ruled that the charging of Foreclosure fee on loan amounts to practicing monopolies hence the bank should immediately return the money with interest. In my case particulary the violation is more severe as I transfered my loan to the Insuance Society run by my Employer and not to their Competitieve Bank.

I always paid all my EMI's on time without any delay. However From the time I left my job at converges I didn't pay my EMI's. But it was only for few months. In between I spoke to ICICI executives to give me some time to get a job and I would start to pay my EMI's just like before. In the mean time my PF amount of rs.72927was debited to my ICICI account without any prior notice to me. Neither did ICICI bank didn't inform me about the amount being debited from my PF office.

Of late its getting quite impossible to talk to any of the phone banking executives of this bank. Try using the customer care by calling ICICI BANK CUSTOMER CARE. The loads of confusing options described by the automated answering machine ensures that you exceed the maximum number of tries and call being disconnected.

I recently changed my phone and hence had to de-activate the application for mobile banking in my older phone so that another application could be installed in the new phone.. The only way to do this was to talk to the phone banking executive. I wonder if they exist anymore. If at all any of the bank officials bother to check this complaint, Please mail me and let me know how do i talk to your people. In case of the mobile banking application, going to the bank is useless as they are not entitled to enable this facility!!

My debit card number [protected] has been blocked from online transaction and on contacting the bank no solution is being provided.

when i puchase some goods in dubai, and make payment from my ICICI Bank Credit card No. is [protected] , when i swep my card the transaction was withheld due to security reason of Bank. when i contacted to customer care there was no response, and i am surprise to know that there is no toll free number available for contracting customer care. and for that reason i had paid around 3000 INR for calling the customer care, & Still till date i couldnot get any positive responce after my contact to customer care in dubai.

I Vijay Pransh Tripathi S/o shri Ramashankar Tripathi residing BM 35 Housing Board Colony, Pithampur , Distt –Dhar (MP) hereby inform to you that I have purchased a Bike Make- Bajaj CT 100 Reg. No. MP09MB3845 from pithampur on finance from ICICI Bank (Malav Parisar, A.B. Road, Indore) in February 2006. My Loan account No. was LTPHM [protected]. At the time of finance I have issued 5 cheques of Centurion Bank, Pithampur on demand of ICICI Bank for ECS. I have informed that the installments of Rs. 1081/- shall be debited each month from your account to ICICI Bank automatically, whereas not any single month the instilment has been withdrawn from my account from ICICI Bank. In every month I have to pay the installments through cash payment on the demand of Bank. In a month the Bank agent has not given me the receipt and again I had to pay the additional installmet. In this regard I had sent the memo to ICICI Bank through my advocate dated 13.10.2007 and remind to deduct my installments through my bank account. But not any action taken by bank. I also want to say that I have always sufficient amount in my bank account. Finally I have totally paid the all loan amount to ICICI Bank by January 2009. But I have to say with very sorrow that the Bank is not returning my original documents. I have visited many times in their head office of ICICI Bank (Malav Parisar, A.B. Road, Indore) and met their officers. They are demanding additional amount. I don’t know that why they are demanding the additional amount.

Sir I am poor person and in frustration. I have lose my lot of money as conveyance to met the bank officials and wasted my times and duty from my private company from last one year. You are requested to do the needful action against Bank. I have all documents that will bi produced on demanding.

Hi,
My name is Aswin Kini M.K. I own an ICICI Credit Card. I have been using the card for the past two years and have paid my dues very well in advance. I have always used the card only when the purchase amount exceeded 10k and converted my purchases into EMIs.

Recently, I used the ICICI Credit card to pay 18500 rs for my bike. I had done a similar transaction earlier last year and successfully paid for it in EMIs. But this year, when I called ICICI, They informed me that they do not provide the option anymore. They never informed this earlier and now claim that it is only value add. I can't pay the entire amount now.

EMI option was like a boon to me. But now without it, this card is useless. I would request some help regarding this.

Hello,
I have a housing loan with ICICI since last 3 years. I have made part prepayment twice so far, the latest one on Jan 9th. They said there are no prepayment charges (which was agreed while taking the loan itself) but when I asked about when will this get reflected in my account, they said it will be only effective from March 1st !!. They say this is because my EMI cycle is 1st of every month (it is dedcuted auto debit on 1st of every month from my account) etc., which I really did not understand...

The fact is that, I am losing out on about 50 days of interest on the part prepayment that I made !! because the part prepayment cheque is already cleared from my a/c and till March 1st the bank will be simply holding that money and earning interest on this.

I feel that bank is just playing around with the clauses to earn money. When I took the loan I was told there are no prepayment charges but they have took an alternate path to charge for this.

I believe thousands of customers are cheated (in a official way !! ) like this as normally these things can not be noticed by a ordinary customer who may not be so good in accounting.

Dear Sir,

I am holding a credit card of ICICIC Bank from March’2004, in the month of Sep’2009 I made a cash payment to the executive who came from bank, from that day till the time of writing this mail my payments has not been credited in my account, I have sent a mail which is mentioned below-
Sir please help me.(Sir I am atatching the cash reciept also)

Mumbai,
Dear Sir,
This is further to your letter dated 5th Dec’2009 (Ref No. : CONCC/44840/1493/[protected]) I had a word to the official Mr. Anish Gupta at contact no [protected] for my payment part.
Sir I would like to inform you that I made a cash payment of Rs. 2560/- to your executive who came to my residence on 14th Sep’2009.
Till the time writing this letter that amount has not been credited in my account, in this regard I have given a complaint in customer care department, the first request number for the same is RS[protected] received on 27th Sep’09 ,they suggest me to go & meet your officials at ICICI BANK LIMITED, PLOT NO 7, COMMUNITY CENTER, S.D.TOWER,SECTOR -8, NEW DELHI-110085.
I went there personally & meet your executive on counter number 5. She has taken the photocopy of that cash receipt which your executive gave me while he came to collect the payment.
She promised me that the same will be resolved in few days, but today after 2 months I am struggling for the same.
After having a word with Mr. Anish Gupta, I came to know that the executive who came to collect the payment he was not the authentic person & he has provided me the false receipt so in this case Mr. Anish informed me & assured me that the same will be resolved very soon, but till ow nothing has happened.
I would like to ask a very simple question that if your collection department is calling any costumer regarding payment part & arranging someone to get the cash payment than how this important information can go to some other peoples who are not at all authentic & authorized.
This way it clearly shows that someone from your bank only is passing through the information which is not a good & safe for customers & bank as well.
ICICI Bank is a very reputed bank & if this way information will be going out than no one would like to have relationship with the bank.
I have received this card (for which I am writing) in March’2004 with a very low limit, but due to my good & clean track the current limit has been enhanced more than 3 times.
So this is not a matter for non payments & all as your bank has sent me the letter for conciliation.
In this regards I had a word in your Mumbai office also on 9th October’09 & spoke to Mr. Soumen & he has given me a fax number[protected] saying, please fax that receipt so that we can take further action, after faxing the same again after 5 days I spoke to Mr. Anand Sagar in Mumbai office on 15th Oct’09 he again provide me the same fax number saying fax it again, that also I did, but no result.
I have been harassed by your staff simply without any fault of mine.
May I request you to please look into the matter & resolve this issue at your earliest?
It will be a great help for me as you can easily understand that from 1th Sep’2009 till 19th Jan’2010 is not at all the short time, it already 4 months.
Looking forward for some positive response.

Regards
