Citibank — without information my citibank salary a/c was put on no credit as I added my spouse in 2009 as joint account holder for kyc details of her

Address:Hyderabad, Telangana, 500093

Hi gulistan / ann

Absolutely 5 working days now to unblock from no credit to my suvidha savings account.
Can some one own it up and take action until resolution. You have no right to play around with customers like this. Enclosed the bounce mail on ecs for your ref. My credit scores are at stake, i am being hit by penal charges for bounces 3rd one in a row now. I need an apology mail for not sending sms alert for putting my account on no credit i have been undergoing so much of mental stress having wedding in the family with no salary drawn from citi account what a shame for a customer who is in relation with bank past 15 yrs.

Regards
Shyam n

Thank you for your response gulistan.
After having heard no response till 4pm ist today after your call i have gone myself with spouse to begumpet branch and met the branch manager and submitted the required kyc document again with a request to delete my sangeetha (Spouse) name as joint account holder which i have requested in 2007 when i travelled to uk for work to take care of financials. Branch manager was clue less when i asked why the sms alert was not sent to me on no credit action which was initiated on 21st june 2019 when a customer atm / ecs / citi balance sms gets updated almost every day why not a simple message for a premier customer like me was not intimated on blockage of my account. I could have handled this situation much better and avoided such hard real life minutes past 29th june date 2019. Absolutely senseless work done by my relationship managers.

Can you / someone own it up & help expedite on unblocking the no credit my payroll department says they need another 3 days to get my salary credited into my citi’s suvidha account that means i am going face another couple of ecs bounce on my account after the 2nd july dated ecs bounce which i already had with a charged of 750 irs

Hope you understand the situation and act swiftly & resolve the query.

Regards
Shyam n

Shyam sir,

Greetings!! Apology for the delay.

We were working yesterday to fetch details about the exact reason for account block. The latest update is, i have raised query to concerned team to assign the due diligence questionnaire to me. This is in absence of your rm mr. Apoorva. I’ll call back as soon as its assigned to me. This was possibly to fetch profile details for either you or joint holder ms. Sangeeta. I understand past few days would have been quite difficult for you as we are your primary bank. Assuring i and citi will always strive to do best to serve you.

As discussed today, you were travelling during oct’17, when we attempted to reach you for the due diligence. This would have been the only reason the calls/ emails/ letters would have missed sight. So i understand the case is seriousness and genuine. Will work to the best of my ability to unblock your account. So as it resumes back to function. Requesting to stand with us strong as you have been for years. You are surely one of our valued clients!

Thank you for banking with us.

Hi gulistan

Appreciate your timely response over the phone and email. While i understand the protocols on getting my account unblocked with certain stake holders approvals which is the key reason for delay in sorting out tomorrow with in 24 hours. However as expressed over the call request you to expedite my request as there is a wedding in the family on monday at 10 am @ kutubshahi 7 tombs golconda fort.

I am seriously concerned on my account block while i can confidently say, none of my relationship manager called or emailed or received any letter asking for kyc details which i have submitted in the month of march already walking up to begumpet branch in person. As stated in the month of may.

Awaiting for your call tomorrow

Best regards,
