Dear Sir,
I received the following SMS in my mobile no. [protected];-

"A transaction o[censored]SD 19.99/- on 01-JAN-10 on card xxxxx9003 is made at BLUEMOUNTAIN *ME. Available Cr limit is Rs8,257.[protected]"
I would like to inform you that I did not make any transaction on 1.01.2010. In fact I did not make any transaction in the above card during last one year. Hence please do not debit this charge to my above-mentioned credit card account.

As an abundant precaution I would request you to cancel my above card immediately, so that no such false charge can be lavied on me in future.

I would also request you to take appropriate measure against the culprit.

Requesting for your prompt action,

Yours truly,

Dr Devojo Prithwi Lal

Sub : Harassment and Cheap Behavior of Executives.
Ref : C.C. No. [protected]

Dear Sir,
I am an HNI Customer with your bank and using the Credit Card facility of Icici Bank with a credit limit of Rs. 1,55,000 /-

1.) Firstly, with reference to your Bill Statement Dtd. 27.06.2009 for Rs. 4,499 /-, Cheque No. 980946 dtd. 15.07.2009 drawn on Icici Bank Ltd, G.K. – 2 Branch was dropped at the G.K. – 2 Drop box on 15.07.2009. To our surprise, the cheque was never presented and we have no clue as to where the cheque is cause apparently the bank misplaced the cheque.


2.) Secondly, around 12.07.2009 to my surprise, I was traveling out of India and all of a sudden , I receive a message that my card has been blocked for non payment of dues even when my credit limit is Rs. 1,55,000 and only Rs. 4,500 /- was due.


3.) On my return, I received calls at 7 o clock in the morning, that too on a Sunday from your collection agency called M/s SERCO (Rohini, Delhi) threatening me to pay the amount. Upon asking their names, they banged the phone down and when I called back, I was told different different names like Ram, Rajdeep, Rohit (Tel : [protected] / 30513430 / 30513400 / 30512300 / [protected])


4.) To top it all, when their executive came to collect the cheque, he didn’t even have a proper ID card and carried an ID Card without photograph under the name of Mr. Ramesh Chandra Whereas his actual ID card was for HDFC Bank and his real name was Mr. Durgesh Kumar Yadav (Copy Attached)


5.) When I informed this to the Icici Bank people, I was not given any proper response and they said that they can’t do anything and deactivated the card.



It is very very surprising to note that even after being a Preferred Customer of Icici Bank and maintaining a good history as far as credit card is concerned and paying all my bills in time for the past 3 years, I was given threatening calls and my card was deactivated for merely Rs. 4,500 /-



All I asked for was a written apology from the executives their cheap and ridiculous behavior before making the payment of Rs. 24,993 /- (Rs. 4,500 + Rs. 20,493 /- ) , actual used and waiver o[censored]nnecessary charges debited to my Credit Card.



As far as the payment of your bills is concerned, you have already debited my Savings A/c of Rs. 29,450.85 (Rs. 13,360 /- on 26.10.09 and Rs. 16,090.85 /- On 10/12/2009)



It is very unfortunate that you have the time to call me 10 days a day to ask me for the payment but not even 1 executive could solve my problem or find a resolution. Just because you are a big company doesn’t mean that you can harass the customers without even listening to their problems despite being an HNI Customer for the last 5 years.



Since your company is not interested in maintaining relationships, I would like to cancel my Credit Cards and close all my accounts with your bank.

I have taken home loan from ICICI bank under floating rate of interest (ROI). Presently, the ICICI bank is charging ROI 12.75% from old customers like me. But it is luring new customers by advertising to pay home loans @ 8.25% ROI. My complaint is that why the ICICI Bank is discriminating between old and new customers. Why the old customers are overburdened to fetch new customers. To add more injuries, the ICICI bank is offering a scheme that "pay 30000/- and your rate of interest will be reduced to 8.75%". I want to ask that why the bank is offering such money making schemes? If a customer with floating ROI has to pay money for its loan reduction, then what is meaning of floating rate of interest?

To
the concern deppt.of icici credit card, i want to say that i was having 40000 rs limit in my card but it has changed and low to 11000. It is very disappointed for me and i have to take serious decision. so i request to you people please understand my words and do the need full
thanks

I had updated by contact details with the bank and also cross verified the details with the bank. After that I raised a request for transaction password to be sent to new address twice but they sending the password to old address only in spite of being their system are confirming my new address as communication address.

Also I had registered a complaint with bank customer care dept, to which the bank person always the complaint is with high priority but result is just the same.

I am feeling so regretted and frustrated with b2 (bad bad) ICICI bank service

Please guide me where should I further take this issue to get this sorted asap. My mail ID is [protected]@live.com

Dear Sir / Madam

This is in reference to the transaction dispute logged with you for Rs. 2000 which was charged on my ICICI Card # [protected]. The transaction was charged on 19th Oct'09 by Tata Indicom which was made illegally. As soon as the transaction was made, I received an SMS stating that my above mentioned card has been charged for Rs. 2000 by Tata Indicom, Mumbai whereas I was in Noida at the same time. As soon as I received the SMS, I called up at the Customer Service and blocked the Card. All this process was being done in only 1 hour of making a transaction. Thus, giving you ample time to reverse / stop the payment of the transaction made. As the investigatons were going on, I was given an interim credit of Rs. 2000, but of no use as I got to know that the charges have been reversed to my Card Account as your investigations failed. Two days back, I got an SMS as well as a Letter that the case has been closed and ended in bank's favour. First of all, I would like to make it clear that I was fighting against ICICI Bank. Thus, your statement mentioning "Ended in Bank's favour" is of no use.

Normally, as soon as the transaction is being made, bank takes 3 business days to credit the amount to the merchant, from where the transation is made. Whereas, I logged a complaint against this illegal transaction within 1 hour of the transaction. Thus, giving you whole 3 days to stop the amount to be credited to the merchant

Then, I would request you to please clarify the purpose of sending the SMS to the Consumer as soon as the transaction is made, if you can not reverse or make the updations provided by the Consumer against the transaction made. There is no use of sending thr alerts, if you make any changes against the transaction reported to you.

then, if you are not able to reverse the charges in 3 business days, how would you be going to grow up in business. This is totally agianst the working style of a bank. remember, you are playing with money, someone's hard earned money, which is absolutely not yours at all.

Then, as per your recent message, your investigations have failed and you have reversed the charges to my Account, which means that I need to pay for the charges I have not made a transaction for. Thus, I would request you to please arrange to provide the Investigation documents as earliest as possible as I need to log this Issue with Banking Ombudsman as well as Consumer Forums and to other NGOs involved in this area alongwith some major newspapers and magazines.

Thanks & regards
Mukesh Ahuja

Dear Team

Need help on how i can get this rectified with ICICI

Dear Sir

I have been having a salary account with the ICICI Bank since 2005. I also have a ICICI Bank Credit Card.
My Credit card was lost and I did not knew about it, until I received an SMS on 18th Jan 2009, stating that a transaction have been from my credit card and purchase done
I immediately called the Customer Care and blocked my card; also I came to know that many transactions have been made from my account.
I have not made any single transaction from my card and I was told to file an FIR for the issue .I filed FIR and copy send to ICICI Bank.

The bank has placed lien on my salary account because I have not made payment towards my credit card. I have in no way given any written or oral approval for this anytime. And they de

The bank has not given prior intimation about this.

Neither the ICICI Bank credit card department nor the ICICI Bank with whom I have a salary account have communicated to me in any way about the lien.

Does the ICICI Credit Card Dept. have the right to put a lien on my Salary account?

Does the bank which I have trusted for so many years right in not even notifying me before putting a lien?

Please tell me how to proceed.

Thanks

The mail id mentioned in the credit card statement is wrong and the right mail id is mentioned above,

Hello

My card number is [protected]. I have been using icici credit card and my banking account from 2006. I hold good relationship with your company apart from the basic issues that i had regarding the interest charges issues that i had. But now everything looks perfect untill i called up icici customer service. I have been using EMI facility and whenever i use to make any transactions of high value icici used to call me and offer me emi option. In the same loop i made a transaction of 20k and when i called up icici to convert this to emi, they give me shock saying that emi option is stopped. And when i asked him the reason, nobody has any specific reason but when i enquiredi came to know that icici was not pretty much in position to invest in this lot, but its not my problem to pay this amoutn at one shot, bcuz i was in loop that i can convert this to emi. IF they stopped emi option its icici responsibility to call and inform else a simple sms or atleast a mass mail to all its customers would save icici's reputation for the same..Its not only me many customers are having this problem and they are going for settlement which would def give bad credit report in cibil.. Now i dont have the complete money to pay for this. I would want icici to work with me atleast for the last time for emi as am bed ridden bcuz i met with an accident and on off to work so obviously my salary would stop. So now am not finding any alternative for this.. I would certainly expect icici to work with me for this bcuz i value their bank and its icici resposibility to value its customers. I do use citibank platinum card they work a lot for customer satisfaction. I understand its bank policy to change this but its equally banks responsibility to inform the customers about what is happening in the backend so that the customers would also act upon it, and if icici will come back and say no this is do or die option for u, then definetly i would go for negativity as i would certainly register a complaint against this. Its not banking code of conduct

Dear Sir / Madamme,
This is a complaint against ICICI Bank Customer Care and their total lack of commitment to the complaints from customers. I had complained against three perpetually non-functional ATMs in Chanakyapuri and Gopinath Bazar, New Delhi by e mail to ICICI, through my complaint No. :'ICICICARE=[protected]' level1complaint/ Savings Account, which was replied by Y Ambika, Customer Service Officer, ICICI Bank Limited, and phone call from her to me from Hyderabad (I do not know why from Hyderabad) stating that all issues will be set right.
I had again visited the ATM (ID No : S1CW3152) at Gopinath Bazar, New Delhi at 1921 hrs today (24 Dec 2009). Once again, the two machines were NOT able to give the transaction print out.
I had complained to ICICI about this ATM among the three that are referred in my previous complaint.

NO ACTION SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN TAKEN BY THE BANK ON THIS STATE FOR THE LAST NEARLY SIX MONTHS AS THE STATE IS THE SAME.

The guard at the ATM tells me that he has made this complaint to 'Brink's Arya', the Bank's agents for loading the ATMs, several times, but they just do not put paper rolls in it and also say that the machines need to be repaired.
In case the machines are not repaired in this week (i.e. by 31 Dec 2009) I may be forced to resort to taking legal recourse against your bank through the Consumers' Forum, since the Bank appears to be indifferent to polite complaints and messages.
Kindly raise the level to the appropriate authorities in your Bank in case this is not manageable at lower levels.
May I expect a reply and immediate action.
Brigadier SP Nawathe.
