Sir,
I have applied for ATM Card of SBI on 3-11-08 in SBI, Delhi University Branch but till date I have not received the ATM Card.My S/A No.is [protected]. I enquired from Help Line. They told me that my application for ATM Card has not reached there. Then I contacted SBI, Delhi University Branch. They people told me that their Computer is showing ATM access So I cannot do anything. Please do the needful at the earliest and let me...

I have received a call from SBI about Premium Circle. They informed me that the Fee is one thousand plus ( i think it is 1050/-) and told about the guaranted gift of a wrist watch. I informed them to send a detailed mail. They said that it can be sent after accepting the proposal. They explained me about the offers around 10 minutes where nothing went into my brain.
After 4 days i have received a call from SBI about transaction of 6000 plus. I replied as i am not accepting about the 6000 plus. I will accept for 1000plus if it is single time. Later i recieved a call from SBI as if i cancel the premium offer i should pay the 1000plus. The 6000plus is already debited to my account.
My doubts are
1. SBI card people are cheating by making a proposal by phone. (No one can remeber all the details what they explain)
2. When they asked about the Confirmation of Payment (6000plus) I Rejected. But How it was Debited to my account?
Please any one can guide me about it.

Dear Friends,

I have got a call in September from a company referring themselves from SBI and they told me that I have been selected for an offer called "Privilege Circle Program" from SBI. As I was busy with my work at office and as I was gettig disturbed by this call two to three times, I have given my confirmation to them as I didn't listen about the payment of Rs. 6180. As soon as I checked the transaction on my credit card, I have been contacting them to cancel this offer. When I got the call from the verification department before sending me the Welcome Kit, I have told me clearly not to send the Welcome Kit as am not interested and hence as of now I didn't receive the welcome kit as well. As of now the issue is not resolved and now they are saying that the Welocme Kit is also sent to me and they got the acknowledgement saying that I have received it hence they cannot cancel the offer. But the surprising thing is that I have not received the welcome kit till today. I spoke to executives like Shilpi, Sudha and today with Karan and even I have discussed long time with Saurav (Supervisor) also. I have been requesting them to show me the recording proofs atelast but as of now I didnt get the reply. I really got frustated and I have decided to fight against them leagelly. Can anyone tell me how to proceed further leagelly??

I came to know that there are lot of members like me who are suffering with this offer and I would like to request other card holders to be careful with SBI card and it's offerings henceforth.

Please help me in this regard.

Thanks & Regards,
Shiva Kumar.

Dear Sir / Madam,

I have been told that i will be getting cash back card i.e. gold card during my phone conversation and the card which i finally got is an employee card.

I am very disappointed with the treatment given. I don't know why sbi is fooling people. This is the case which happened to one of my friend also. He discontinued it. I have not started using it and will never going to use it anyway.

Thanks for your stupid unwanted card,
Manish

Sub: My Card No 4006xxxxxxxxxx443


I have been using the above SBI card for a few years. In the month of July 2008 I realized I will be charged annual fee in case of renewal & requested for cancellation of the card. Since I had made some extra payment, I requested for a refund of the same & was informed withing 30 days the same will be sent to my billing address.
In the month of Sept I realized I have not received the payment & again logged a call & was informed that there was some problem with the system & the same will be processed in the next 10 days. However, even after this nothing happened & I received a call in the month of Oct 08 requesting me to continue with my card & a new card will be issued without any annual fee & the entire amount will be reflected as a credit in my statement. SBI being a very reputed bank, I fell trap for this ploy & accepted the offer. I received the card with No 4006xxxxxxxxx110 & tried to register the card as per the instruction given in the kit, with a confirmation that within 48 hrs this card will be activated. I tried to use this card for some payment & was declined, this was the most em brassing moment for me !. I called up SBI again and lodged a complain & was informed that this will be activated shortly. Even after this nothing happened & last week again I tried to register the new card & again got a confirmation message that this card will be activated in 48 hrs.
So far this card has not been activated & when I called up the help desk today & requested for the status, he tried telling me some story starting from oct 08. I immediately requested him to cancel the card, he gladly accepted the offer ( looks like SBI does not want good customers who pay on time) with a reference No[protected].
I hope I will receive my overdue amount without further delay. If I delay the payment, SBI charges 36% interest, now the payment is overdue by 3 months & I wonder how you will compensate !
It is a pity that such a reputed bank like SBI, has handled a customer so carelessly without any concern.
I only hope such a situation does not repeat to some other customer !!

Sir i am netbanking user in state bank of india.Sir i have already registered my mobile number online still i have not getting mobile alerts.i have contact sbi customer care so many times but i am not getting any response.how my mobile alerts will activate i want to know.

Dear Sir/Madam,

This is with reference to your letter dated 06 Oct 08 received few days back regarding outstanding dues of Rs.872.13 in my SBI Card.

I would like bring few facts to your knowledge which are as follows:

1. Reference to my previous E-Mails dated 22 Aug 08 (Response Case ID=[protected], 28 Aug 08 (Response Case ID=[protected] requesting you for final settlement of my SBI Card dues.

2. After having a discussion with customer care executive about the outstanding balance as on the day, I have made the Payment of Rs.11, 064/- vide State Bank of India Cheque No.006790 dated 31 Aug 08 and same was cleared from my account on 04 Sep 08. At the same time I have also destroyed my Credit Card as per the directions provided by the customer care representative for terminating my account. Request for final settlement was already made through E-Mail dated 22 Aug 08.

3. There after I have only received two statements on 23 Sep 08 and 09 Oct 08. In both statements there was no information about Payments made. Above that Late Payment Charges were only mentioned.

4. Recently a letter received dated 06 Oct 08 about outstanding dues of Rs.872.13 in my SBI Card which made me surprise and when I spoke to SBI Credit Card Customer Care executive she answered “We have received your payment after due date and we have not received any request for closing your Account”.

5. Once, I have cleared all my dues as on 31 Aug 08 including all late pay charges and destroyed my card How I am being charged without making any transaction?

6. I would like to tell one more experience during the year 2006 for a Cheque Rs.600/-from Kotak Mahendra Bank was cleared by SBI Credit Card and not mentioned in any of the statements. For that also, I have repaid the amount of Rs.600 along with late pay charges. I am having the proof for the same and several requests were also made to Customer Care to resolve this issue went in vain.

7. During my entire period since day one, I have been paying each and every Rupee correctly to SBI Credit Cards. But still these kind of Issues occurs which would spoil the image of the Organisation as well Customer’s Mental Peace.

8. Now I don’t have any other option other than approaching legal authority to resolve these issues.

9. Kindly help me out in this regard and get me relief from SBI Credit Card.

Yours faithfully,

With Sincere Thanks

In the month August 2007, I was approached by one Sri Pranjal Deka, Team Leader, SBI Cards, Guwahati (Mobile no:[protected] who offered me a SBI Credit Card. Because of the SBI Brand Name, I agreed to his offer and signed a form in anticipation of receiving a credit card. However, I did not go through the details in the form and instead relied on the SBI Brand Name.
To my surprise, I was sent a Draft no:195652 dated 01/10/2007 drawn on State Bank Of Travancore for Rs: 6000/- forwarded by a letter signed by Sri Ajay Bharti, Assistant Vice President-Services, SBI Cards & Payment Services Pvt. Ltd, Gurgaon. The letter referred to A/C No/Card No:[protected], but, I had not received any Credit Card from SBI Card nor had I made any request for ant amount by Bank Draft or any other means.

Therefore, I returned back the above mentioned Draft no: 195652 dated 01/10/2007 drawn for Rs: 6, 000/- to SBI Card and Payment Services Ltd., DLF Infinity Towers, Gurgaon-122002 by DTDC Courier & Cargo Limited vide consignment no:*K 24790573* despatched from Guwahati 30th October 2007.

After a period around 15 days, I received numerous phone calls from one Mr. Arun Desai who identified himself as SBI legal Department, Delhi from Ph no:[protected]. Though, I explained to him that I had only applied credit card and did not make any request draft amount Rs: 6000/- and that I had therefore returned the Draft, Draft no: 195652 dated 01/10/2007 for Rs: 6000/- back to SBI Card and Payment Services Ltd., he continued to threaten me with legal action as I had a signed a form.

The threatening and insulting calls from Arun Desai, Advocate, SBI Legal Department, Delhi and his collagues continued for next 7-8 months, Even though I had not made any financial transaction through SBI Card, out of sheer frustation, helplessness and confusion, I agreed to a one time settlement of Rs: 6500/-. Accordingly one representative of State Bank of India Card collected the amount of Rs: 6500/- from my Office in Assam Secretariat, Guwahati, Assam. SBI Cards Money Receipt no: 11872684 dtd: 15/07/2008.

Subsequently, I received a letter dated 22/07/2008 from Manager-Payment Assistance, SBI Card, SBI Card & Payment Services Pvt. Ltd., Gurgaon, Haryana, dtd: 22/07/2008 wherein it was confimed that on payment of Rs: 6500/- there will be no more dues in respect of my account and that this is a one time full and final offer.

Shockingly, I then received a Demand Notice ( Ref no: QL/150/10-oCT-08/42804 DTD 10TH oCTOBER 2008 FROM sRI rAJEEV aGARWAL (aDVOCATE), lAWYERS iNC., REPRESENTING SBI CARD WHEREIN I WAS ASKED TO CLEAR OUTSTANDING DUES OF RS:6279.75/- within 7 days failing which legal proceedings would be initiated under Indian Penal Code.

The above sequence of events makes it clear that SBI Card took undue advantage of our faith and goodwill towards State Bank of India. SBI Card had also used fraudulent means to take advantage of a common man's tendency not to read the fine print.

Moreover, inspite of not receiving any credit card, and returning the Demand Draft of Rs: 6000/- I had to make payment of Rs: 6500/- only under extreme pressure and threats issued by SBI Card. Even then I have now been issued a legal notice.

In view of the above, I request you kind intervention in the following.
1. Refund of my payment of Rs: 6500/- which I had made no financial transaction through SBI Card.
2. Withdrawal of all proceedings legal or otherwise in my name
3. An explanation of the whole matter and on assurance that our goodwill towards State Bank of India will not be misused against us in future.

I will be grateful for an early reply from your end.

Dear Sir,

Iam Komal Khare, on 11november 08 evening arround 3.45 p.m. i was booking My online E-Ticket from website: www.irctc.co.in, from Surat to Bandra Terminus from Train Dehradun Express (Train NO. 9020), i've gone through all the formalities while booking my E-Ticket I've chosen SBI ATM Cum Debit Card for making Payment of the Ticket, After filling all the entries in the particular payment page i.e. ATM Cards no., Validity Period, Card holders name & Pin No., I've clicked the PAY option and suddenly the next page was ERRORED.

Sub :- Regarding remaining amount

R/ Sir

It is submitted to you that, I am the holder of SBI card number [protected] . I had purchased of Rs. 999/- and paid Rs 1100/- against that purchasing. But your message on my mobile shows remaining amount is Rs 1317.39.
Sir, it is brought into your notice that. I have not received your bill, E –mail message or SMS for minimum installment to paid in time. Hence I have paid Rs 1100/- in two installment ( Rs 600/- & Rs 500/-) within three months. After all your message dated 13/11/2008 shows the remaining amount is Rs 1317/-, I think, this is the high level cheating. Private money lenders also take the 2% interest monthly.(Flatly Rs 60/- for three month on Rs 1000/-) In such situation your SBI card is not affordable for low budget salary holder.
It is request to you that please look into this matter and give me the justice as I will continue to use the SBI card. Otherwise it is request to you that please discontinue my SBI card.
Submitted
Yours obedient

dear customer care dept

with due respect, I ms.lucky gogoi, account holder in SBI, GMC branch, guwahati-781005, assam, would like to state that on 04/10/2008, i have withdrawn Rs.20, 000/- using my ATM card[protected].My savings a/c no-[protected].

My account shows debit of Rs.45, 000/- instead of Rs.20, 000/- on date 04/10/2008.My ATM Card being cash plus, allows a maximum withdrawal of Rs.40, 000/- per day.Moreover, I have not withdrawn the rest amount of Rs.25, 000/-.Though my account statement shows it, I am confident that it is false withdrawal.

I, therefore, request you to kindly look into the matter and do the needful as soon as possible.

I have already put an application with the branch
thanking you

Lucky Gogoi
