On[protected], in the evening I had withdrawn Rs. 2500/- from SBI ATM near New Delhi Railway Station between 4.00 pm to 5.00 PM. I have a savings account (A/c no : [protected]) in SBI, Arambagh, Hooghly, WB branch.

When I checked my account balance on the same day in the evening, I found that 2500/- has been debited TWICE (i.e. in all Rs. 5000/- ) against my account with same ATM transaction no.

I had already given a complain letter regarding this, to the Customer Relation Officer in SBI, Arambagh, Hooghly, WB. Also, I had gone to the bank several times for enquire. But the Customer Relation officer told me to wait and it will take time.

The fact is that, till today[protected] I haven't got my money back.

Sir, Please look into this matter or please guide me what should i do?

In the month of Nov.-2007, one person from SBI Credit card had rang up in my mobile & asked to take SBI Life Insurance facility. I had asked him to send me the details, after which I can take this policy . But unfortunately SBi Credit card had charged me Rs 433.92 on 25.12.07 as my outstanding on the month of DEC.-07.
I had made written complaint on 26.12.09 to customer care. But there was no reply & on 20.5.08- they( AVP, Customer care) had mailed me that they are going to resolve this issue at the earliest. I had complained through mail on dted-23.5.08, 29.5.08, 08.8.08, 13.8.08, 28.8.08, 03.9.08, 20.5.08.
Today -01.6.09- when I had contacted with customer care they are asking for Rs 3800.00 to resolve this issue permanately.
Since I had not got any oppertunity in getting SBI Life insurance- Super Suraksha Policy & my card is blocked, how can I pay this amount of Rs 3800.00.

Dear Sir,
With reference to my SBI card [protected], on receipt of my card statement for the month of 2/9/2007, I found that the bank has debited me with an amount of Rs-10000/- towards some purchases from TOYNICA INTERNATIONAL but I have never made this transection, so I contacted to the customer care regarding the wrong debit and when I asked for charge slip of these transection but the bank could not arrange the same to me nor they still could provide me with the address. Since then I have talked many time about the reversal of this amount but the SBI Bank officials did nothing to resolve the matter.

So I request you to please do the needful to sort my this problem at the earliest.

Dear Sir,

Sub: GE SBI Credit Card #[protected]


This is regarding one of my very old Credit Card I was holding 4yr back, I used this credit card for 1year period where is found that services are below standards in terms of sending timely statements, crediting payments on statements etc.

Unfortunately I did not receive monthly statements of credit card timely on my above mentioned address, and I missed the due date of making minimum payments towards the purchase made in earlier months.

Finally I went to close my card since I was not happy with the services at all, but they had charged Late payments and overdue interest over and above the principal outstanding, I refused to make any payment on charges except principal because it was not my fault.

After a few months they sent me a letter dated 26th May 2006, where it was mentioned that against an O/s of Rs.8803/- I should pay Rs.4401/- which could close this matter for the full and final, they also mentioned that “my account will stand fully settled and the balance outstanding on my account will be reversed”. I was told to make payment of above amount not late then 30th June 2006, so I did the same and I paid Rs.4401/- on 29th of June 2006.

Surprisingly they have again sent a demand payment notice dated 11-May-2009 of Rs.12264.03
Which has shocked me badly, this was a fraudulent settlement did by GE SBI CARD.
Me and my family is harassed by GE SBI Cards for the collection of above mentioned amount.
We are very much depressed and urge you to take strict action against the company on this issue. Also request you to instruct GE SBI Card to provide apology letter along with No due Certificate of Credit Card Account.

Waiting for a favorable reply,

Yours Truly,

Dear Sir,

I would like to inform you that I purchased a few sarees from Adi Mohini Mohon Kajilal saree shop on 13th September 2008. The total amount of the bill was Rs. 7095.00 (bill no. 5169). I made this payment using a State Bank of India ATM/debit card.
After the purchase, I noticed that this amount has been debited twice from my savings-bank account (S/B no. [protected]). When I informed the bank authorities about this problem, they told me to contact the showroom where I bought the materials and get one certificate of single receipt of the payment. After getting the required certificate from the concerning bank (Citi Bank) of Adi Mohini Mohon Kajilal saree shop, I applied to Mr. Paul (Head cashier of State Bank of India, Beadon Street Branch, Kolkata) on 23.10.2008
He told me to contact after 45 days, as it is the minimum time to resolve any complain of this nature. After 45 days when I contacted him again he asked me to come after a week. In this manner I visited him quite a few times but the problem remained far from being solved. During one of such visits in February’2009 I found that Mr. Paul has been transferred. In such circumstances I contacted the branch manager (State Bank of India, Beadon Street Branch, Kolkata) Mr. N. K. Choudhury on 7th February’09 and explained the problem to him and gave him a copy of the application. When I again visited the branch on 7th March’09 to check the status of my application, Mr. Choudhury sent some correspondence to the head office of State Bank of India and told me to wait for another 45 days. Although the mentioned period of 45 days is again over, the problem is still to be solved.
I would like to bring it to your attention that even after waiting for almost seven months and visiting the banks (both SBI as well as Citi Bank) many times, no appropriate action has been taken. In this scenario I request you to consider the matter and take the necessary and appropriate action.

Thanking you.
