Sir,
pl. find copy of the mail sent by me to today in connection with rude behaviour of a lady Admn.Officer.
TO DT.26TH.SEP, 2014
MR.M.SATYA KUMAR,
Chief Manager
LIC OF INDIA,
Seethammadhara,
VISAKHAPATNAM
Sub: Delay in processing of Claim (on discounted basis) – threatening by Admn.officer
Policy no:[protected] submitted on 15.9.2014.
As already informed over phone to you an hour ago, today morning I visited Seethammadhara branch at around 11am to follow up my claim as cited above. When I approached Admn.Officer Smt.P.Jayamma, she took more than half an hour just to take out my papers and said that my file is missing from the record room…I was shocked..Even though she is fully conversant with my application for pre-mature closure on ‘discounted” basis, I had to refresh her memory that she has in fact confirmed over phone that the claim amount of Rs.132742/- would be sent by NEFT to my bank account latest by Friday. When I did not receive it as on today, I felt I should remind. Instead of giving a reasonable reply for the delay, she started giving vague replies.
When I insisted that I need “acknowledgement” for submission of papers including original policy bond, she reluctantly scribbled a few details and put her initial. When I insisted that I need her name and designation, she behaved very rudely and put aside my papers and said that “ your file will be sent to CRM” I can not give you any assurance”.
Sir, that is when I lodged my protest for the poor state of affairs and said that she can not take me for granted, she threatened that she would call the police and lodge complaint against me for arguing with her. At that juncture an unidentified colleague of her came out of his cubicle and persuaded me to leave the office lest she would go to any length, including booking case on me under “Prevention of atrocities against SC/ST”. Sir, this is nothing but blatant use of blackmail and misuse of law of the land. As a law abiding citizen, I have my own right of expressing displeasure and grievance over inadequate service and also rude behavior of your staff. And I reserve my right to knock the doors of law if necessary.
I am sure you would take up the issue in right earnest and settle my claim at the earliest.
Regards.
