ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Complaints & Reviews

Attn Ms. Chanda Kochar ( ICICI Bank Chairperson.)

This is to bring to your notice about the unfair deduction done my ICICI Prudential life insurance office under the manager Ms.Milan Panchal
Manager – Customer Relations© 2010, ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Co. Ltd* II Direct: +[protected] II Fax: +[protected]
Communication Address: Vinod Silk Mills Compound, Chakravarthy Ashok Nagar, Ashok Road, Kandivali ( E ), Mumbai – 400 101 India

I had invested 2.2lakh in Prudential life insurance policy and when I failed to pay premium for 2 years the policy was foreclose and I was offered only 64,000rs which is unfair and unaccptable. The Premium was not paid as I was unemployed due the recession that hit our place. Don't you take a human
approach to your customers rather outright cheating them
I would like to have my full money back
Rajnish Charles
(UIN: 105L075V01), policy number 12082250 held with ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Co. Ltd

My husband Invested in ICICI prulife policy by compulsion by the ICICI staff. They came to our house talked in sweet words and told they will get good returns better than FD rate. He has invested Rs.50,000/- by believing their words. But in the next year when second installment came when I asked them that the present value is only rs.46,000/. They told they have deducted for their maintenance,insurance & other charges.When we invested at that time market NIFTY was 4850. Now the NIFTY to-day is around 5,7000 an increase of 850 points. Also note that my husband invested in other Mutual,gold mutual and funds. Now he is getting minimum 15% return. In shares also that too in ICICI share where he has purchased for 800 and to-days rate is 1050 a return of 30%. Even after deduction of 4,000 by ICICI for balance 46,000 if you take 15% return as per market movement to-day he should get 6,900 and if you add 46,000 my value should be 52,900/. Even if you take 10% total amount of return will be Rs.50,600. When they asked so many times over phone we told the reality of the return what we are getting they are unable to answer it. Simply they are telling you invest further you will get more returns after 5 years but they are unable to give any guarantee for the returns.IN TV SHOWS LOT OF COMPLAINTS ARE COMING FROM POOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE INVESTED THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY THEY ARE TELLING EVEN AFTER 5 YEARS THEY ARE NOT EVEN GETTING THEIR CAPITAL AMOUNT.
THIS SHOWS IT IS A DAY LIGHT CHEATING LOOTING BY ICICI,HDFC,SBI ULIP POLICIES. PEOPLE ARE ADVISED THEY SHOULD BE VERY CAREFUL WHILE INVESTING IN THESE SCHEMES NOT NOT CHEATED BY THEM. YOU ARE GOING TO LOOSE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY IF YOU ARE NOT SUFFERER'S VIEWS.
ICICI, HDFC, SBI AND OTHER ULIP POLICIES ARE MEANT FOR CHEATING, LOOTING EVEN ROBBERY CATAGORIES.

Rajnish Charles,

Hi

This is my complaint againt the Company ICICI Bank / ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Co. Ltd
Company has done froud with me,Also I want to make the people aware about the reputed bank like ICICI
Who is fuoudling with their users,


Policy no# 15427691
Company ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Co. Ltd.

Done 10th complaint regarding mis-selling of policy to me.
This policy is sold to me by the ICICI Bank by telling it is a fixed deposit(FD),

I was under impression that I have taken a FD from ICICI.
When next year I received renewable message for policy, I was shocked
that instead of FD,policy was sold to me,
so I was also not aware what is Freelook period
Please tell ICICI that why I was unable to come in freelook.

It is pure cheating ,Despite my several complaints ,every time ICICI,
is offering me single premium plan conversion. (have no idea may be another trap)

May I know why single premium offered to me instead of refund?
If ICICI is accepting their fault, why there are not giving refund.

But I am not interested in policy, please cancel my policy and provide
me refund amount


Every time the response of the company is not satisfactory and no action has been taken by any department of the company.
Same repeated message is conveying to us every time, with out checking,


regards

Hi Harinath,

This is for your kind information that i've taken one ICICI Prudential life Insurance plan for amount one lakh per year with the tenure of 7 yrs in May-2011 with the referal of ICICI bank(Srnagar Branch-HYD) Asst Manager SuryaNarayana and i came to US after that.Regarding this year payment i didn't get any Email alert or Mobile alert(registered) for the payment and made payment two weeks back for this year and my wife got a call saying 3000/- to be paid as an late payment fee.

As the asst manager told me that everything will be informed to you through Email/Registered phone([protected]) for the next payment,but not yet informed,b'coz of which i was not able to pay on time and i won't pay any late payment as it was mistaken from your end,so pl considered for this time and make sure there should be Email alert and registered phone alert which is with my wife to avoid creation of these type of problems.

ICICI prudential sold me a policy in Feb 2012 with a promised unit rate of 9%. Also, my funds were supposed to go in NAVB which guarantees a 110% return.
I finally got the policy documents after 4 months of constant follow-ups. And as per the policy the unit rate is 10.54% and my funds were assigned to some other fund types which I had not agreed upon.
After lot of follow-ups, ICICI customer care said to close the policy within 15 days by coming to their branch. They did not even apologize for all the mess they have done. Also,what about the interest I could have earned on 1lakh for more than 6 months.
My another problem is that I am out of India and I cannot come to their branch in 15 days. when I inquired ICICI about the same, they did not even respond. I sent atleast 5 reminder emails. Noone even bothers to respond. At the time of selling the policy I was getting 2 calls in a day from these guys.

Dear Sir,

I have been victim of ICICI PRUDENTIAL LIFE INSURANCE CO,

I have purchased a policy No: 05011157 dt 31.07.2007.

The adviser MR. Akhilesh Kr. Jha insisted to purchase the policy. He assured me that the full amt of premium will be refunded with some bonus after 3 yrs ( i.e lock period of policy)

I agreed and paid Rs. 700/- every month by ECS for 3 yrs.

After 3 yrs I enquired about my fund value.

I was shocked to know that I had paid Rs 25200/- in 3 yrs and fund value was Rs. 23026/84.

I decided to surrender the policy. I was paid Rs. 11623/98 by cheque No: 837372 dt 07.09.2010 by ICICI BANK LTD.

Thus I lost 20,000/- approx.

I feel like cheated.

Kindly look into the matter.

Hi,

This is a serious complaint against fraudulent act of an ICICI agent M.ABDUL ALEEM (Agent Code[protected]. The ICICI Prudential Insurance policy was never intended by me but the agent took a ICICI cheque (No 00339) from me and filled the application form and signed it himself and submitted without my knowledge. I was shocked to see the ICICI Pru Pinnacle bond reaching my home. I have been cheated for 4.77 Laks. He took a cheque from me saying that he will transfer money from one ICICI bank to another.

I want this policy to be cancelled immediately, action to be taken against the agent and I want my entire money back. I am ready to take any legal action against the agent and ICICI.

Looking forward to your reply immediately.

In January 2012 , I was approached by an Employe of ICICI Bank branch ( CHD) on phone and I was told that I will be required to pay a single/one time premium of Rs.20,000.00 and after 5 years the poilicy will be matured with all the benefits.So taking him on words I purchased the Policy no-1632242​17, in january 2012. Since I was not in town when the policy was received, I could not avail of the free look period.Now on detailed reading of the policy i understand that i have been cheated by ICICI as the premium has to be paid ever year for atleast seven(7) years and it is not one time as was informed by him. Hereby I do not want to get my money blocked for 15 years. I want that it should be cancelled and my money should be returned.

I have recd your message on my mobile through TD-IPRULI that you have recd premium through ecs Rs.9843 against my policy no. 00067483 and told to get the relevent receipt from iciciprulife.com, but sorry to state that I could not able to get the same, hence hereby would like to request you to send my premium paid receipt on my e amil id [protected]@yahoo.in to enable me to download the same immediately. premium has been deducted on 14/8/2012 through icici bank vashi branch.
kindly do the needful immediately, also send the statement till today on above mentioned e mail id which is my official e mail id

Policy# 09669302
I have made 8 premium payment 8 times using credit card. All the 8 times either system breaks with no error or warning. All the 8 times payment request never received by credit card company. Called customer service for 21 times and with 37 emails. One answer from ICICI Prudential customer service ' Pay premium.. send error report'.
Customer service manager: DIMPLE A.
Supervisor : Mr. Sayed
Staff does not know if credit card payment is an option for policyholders.

Whole idea of ICICI Prudential life is to make non-payment issue and force policy to lapse so they can pocket money claiming premium was unpaid and money was forfeited.

General people - Please be aware of this tactic and learn from my suffering. I have lost 1 lakh rupees and this company is a fraud. W

I got the Policy while I was in India. Being an NRI, I should have received the welcome kit via email from which my free-look time should have started. I emailed Prulife that I have not received it yet. I was told that it has been sent to the address in India,where I stayed for sometime while visiting India this March 2012. But anyway they sent me a e-copy which is just a receipt of payments etc.
I sent the cancellation request with all the documents within 15 days of my getting e-copy. They refused as they counted free-look from the time it was sent to India. I also filed with Grievance redressal officer but they refused to cancel. They told me that they also emailed me a copy. I never had that email account. I asked my relatives in India to look into the paper copy to see what email address was there. Found out that the agent had justed concocted the address. I asked them to scan and e-send me the whole application. That is where I found out that the signatures are not mine on the places for policy holders signatures. None of the details filled are in my hand .

What sort of legal help I can get in this case. Do I file with Consumer court , if yes, do I have to file in a special jurisdiction .

Or do I have to file with
