ICICI Bank Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir, I have worked for ICICI Bank Ltd from 29/07/2008 to 15/03/2011. Due to unavoidable circumstances, I had resigned from my service and moved to a different state. At time of joining, in my offer letter, it was mentioned that either I have to serve 90 days after resignation or I have to pay notice period amount. Hence I served a part of the notice period and agreed to pay the balance amount as required. Thereafter I have completed my full and final settlement with ICICI Bank Ltd and have received my relieving letter. However the date mention in the relieving letter is 5th May 2011 in place of 15th March 2011. Hence I request the esteemed bank to look into this issue and provide me with a correctly dated relieving letter and experience certificate.

Dear concerned, I hold ICICI Platinum chip credit card. Last week I got call from ICICI executive and they forced me to accept Wallet protection plan which is chargeable @INR 1299. I have told that I am not at all interested but they forced like a hell. They were justifying that other banks will automatically debit with out informing. Now money got deducted from my account and I don't want this plan. Also I would like to surrender this card to free from inherent charges. Kindly do the needful. Regards, Dharmendra P.

Hi Team I am having Salary account in ICICI from last 1.5 years and my account no. is[protected]. I was just checking my bank statement and got the shock because my account has been debited as SMAB Chgs-Jan14+Stax 43.26 i.e INR 393.26 I don't have any mail informing about this MAB charges. I have no Information from ICICI. No call, no mail and no message. Now that I understand that ICICI bank has not informed me about change of balance system and if charges deducted are not credited back to my account then I will be left with no other option but to take this matter to higher authorities and Banking Ombudsman as this is CLEAR VIOLATION of Rule 8(1)(k) i.e. "levying of charges without adequate prior notice to the customer" of The Banking Ombudsman Scheme 2006. This is really ridiculous as my money is deducted with out my notice. Thanks, SAURABH PATEL

Hi,
I am having Salary Account in ICICI my account no. is[protected] My contact number is : [protected]. I was just checking my bank statement and got the shock because my account has been debited as SMAB Chgs-Jan14+Stax 43.26 i.e INR 393.26 totally they have taken INR 996.71 from my account.
I don't have any mail informing about this MAB charges. I have no Information from ICICI. No call, no mail and no message. Now that I understand that ICICI bank has not informed me about change of balance system and if charges deducted are not credited back to my account then I will be left with no other option but to take this matter to higher authorities and Banking Ombudsman as this is CLEAR VIOLATION of Rule 8(1)(k) i.e. "levying of charges without adequate prior notice to the customer" of The Banking Ombudsman Scheme 2006.

My account number is[protected]. You have deducted quoting SMAB charges Rs 393 twice on 22/02 and 13/03 respectively without any notice. I will have to make a complaint against you with Ombudsmen (Banking - Reserve Bank) if you are failing to revert the money back into my account.

I've applied for ICICI Bank Credit Card in Nov. '12. While applying for Credit Card the bank executive informed me that the annual renewal charges will be waived off if I'll complete the total transactions of Rs. 30, 000 in a year. I've completed the transaction of Rs. 30, 000 in first 5 months only but still bank has charged Rs. 500 + Service Tax in the month of Nov ' 13. When I called the ICICI BAnk customer care for this they told me that instead of Rs. 30, 000 I should have done to transactions of Rs. 50, 000 to get the charges waived off. I've asked them if this is the case then please send me the scanned copy of the application form which was signed by me while applying for Credit Card on which it was metnioned charges will be waived off after completing transactions of Rs. 50, 000 in a year. But bank refused me to send me the scanned copy of application form. So I wanted to file a case on the bank as their executive has provided wrong information, also bank is not providing me the proof that I've accepted the clause of completing the transactions of Rs. 50, 000 in a year to get my charges waived off. This is truly unprofessional from a bank like ICICI as by doing this they are harrasing their customers.

An amount of Rs 28.09 has been deducted from my account. I get the following message as the transaction details:POSDEC CHG/09-02-14/4269/25ST3.

I spoke to your customer care now, however he disconnected the call in between and did not even take my request. Please look into the matter.

Hi, Product Type : ICICI PLCC OTL Product OTL Account No : [protected] I see that there is a Cash-In-Select Loan account which is still active and accumulating interest and other charges for a very long time till date. Further this was the only reason why my CIBIL score was being hit (which I just found out while applying to a credit facility and that is really shocking me) even though I maintain very good financial relationship with ICICI using various other products and relationships with other banks as well. I would like to know why this account is still active and accumulating charges when I have paid in full and closed this account long before. Also if possible please send me all the jurisdiction information with regards to this account and region so that I can get some clarity and further take this up legally if so necessary, as the customer care is not helping me in anyway. I have spoken to the customer care several times with regards to this but till date there seems to be no response and looks like they are not bothered to respond hence I would like to take this up legally. Below are the last 2 conversations with customer care. Call 1 (23 Jan 2014) : Spoke to Nazeema (SR[protected], who confirmed that this will be taken care-of and I would receive a call-back within 48hrs on the same to discuss and conclude the issue after retrieving the acct info / acct statements from their systems but nothing happened till date. Call 2 (29 Jan 2014) : Spoke to Jyothi (SR[protected], who also confirmed the same as above and she said I will get a call for sure within 48 hrs atleast again. But nothing happened... Looks like they are purposely doing this to delay the process and make me pay this due amount which was a result of their mistake. I am clearly not liable for this at all. They may also come-back saying that I didnt pay Rs.700 in March 2011 and that is when the interest accumulation started. Actually that is a lie. During the last 2 months of acct closure there was a confusion over payments. So when I called customer care about this, they asked me to make last 2 months payment together and then they will be able to remove Rs.700 that was accumulated as late payment fee. As agreed I made the payment of Rs.3500 on 06 Apr 2011 and Rs.3519.24 on 22 Apr 2011 respectively. But they did not or forgot to remove the Rs.700 out of the billing system and that has now grown to Rs.5105.91 which is entirely interest and other charges only. Hence proving that I am not liable to make any of the payments at all. Except the bank closing the account and providing a closure statement and update the CIBIL so that they can properly update and maintain my records. Which will help me in availing the credit facilities from ICICI and/or other financial institutions. Note : I have all the statements that they are looking for (every single month) in my old E-mail. Surprizing element : What's surprizing is that they have never sent me a PHYSICAL BILL or COLLECTION CALL or COLLECTION EXECUTIVE to ask or remind me of the so-called pending payments, after my last payment. Giving a very clear picture that my account is closed and loan settled-off. Suspicion : This also raises a suspicion that why they did not send any PHYSICAL BILL or COLLECTION CALL or COLLECTION EXECUTIVE. Are they are trying to siphon money from the customer without anything on records just by making the customer feel that we owe them where we actually dont ? Finally I also would like a faster updation of CIBIL records and a compensation of the same amount under dispute to be paid to me to make them realize their mistakes out of carelessness from the banks side for screwing up my CIBIL status for nearly 3 years.

I had made a purchase of 1 samsung grand in feb 2013 against emi in icici credit card. The bill detail received in april had not converted the purchase in emi and my due amount was rs 22500. I made a complaint of the same on toll free no. where I was requested to sent a mail to plutus which is handling the backend services to convert the purchase into emi. A mail was sent as requested and next month bill was received for the emi amount only. However in the month of may the bill received for the credit card consisted of 2 emis insted of one as I only 1 purchase was done. The information of thr same was sent to the bank via email and toll free no where it was informed that the 2nd emi will be cancelled. However month after month I was receiving 2 emis. Email and t environment telephone exchanges were done with icici bank. I have credit limit of 35000 and the credit card nill showes purchase of 43000, how was it possible. After paying my 6 scheduked emis I had stopped making payments and I started receiving mail and telepjones to deposit the due amount. I was visited by the person authorised by bank to collect the dues, the same story was told to them. However no action was taken. I made a complaint in ombudsman however it was more of an eye wash as per them the matter has been settled. I have salary account with icici bank. My salary credited for the month of feb was blocked by the bank for the due amount of credit card. A mail was sent to bank to release the same. A phone was received in response to the mail howevef no action has been taken by the bank. So before taking a legal recourse I wanted to ask Pheradar for help as my whole salary has been blocked and account is showing balance of - (minus) 6000/- as the total amount due was 38000/-.

I wold like to bring this frustrated experience in front of you. Being an wealth and old customer of ICICI bank also suggested by you, I have opted home loan from ICICI Bank. Home Loan agent has collected all required documents for loan from me after calling and asking him many time. He never turned and confirmed any details as he should be as customer representative of ICICI bank. Even though my loan amount is confirmed but I have not received any details of it. Later, I came to know that my loan amount is not covering STAMP duty and registration due to which I will have to shell out almost 2 lakhs extra to full fill 20% own contribution. I was not in position to arrange this much amount in less than 5 days as I promised to builder. YOU GUYS HAVE PUT MY REPUTATION AT STAKE. I was getting better loan option from LIC as well as from AXIS bank; denying them would be my big mistake. I am getting rate interest from 10.15% to 10.25% where as ICICI is charging me 10.50%. I am paying more with this pathetic service. On 14th March; these guys have charged me Rs. 7, 500/- as processing fees and not even bother to ask me where I am going to avail it or not. When I contacted. HL agent, he said you can avail this loan any time; even if you cancel your current property then also you can use this loan. ICICI Bank employee thinks that we do not have any other work and simply waste our time to find out various properties. P.S.: IF ANYONE IS EVERY LOOKING FOR HOME LOAN THEN PLEASE DO NOT OPT FOR ICICI BANK. They even forget meaning of customer service.
