ABN AMRO Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir/ Madam, (Core Complaints)
I have sent the below mail to ABN Amro requesting them to send me a break-up of the Rs. 5971.66, that they claim I owe them. Its been over a month now and they have not replied.
I am sure they will again trouble me after 6 months.
Please advice ABN to send an NO DUES CERTIFICATE, if they are not able to send me a statement of the amount due.

Hi,

On 11.4.2009, I received a call from Customer Care ABN AMRO credit card department regarding payment of the bills. They asked whether they could send an executive to collect the payment. I told them to come at my residence and collect it, if they can. So yesterday i.e 12.4.2009 a person of the the ABN AMRO bank came to collect the payment at my house. I gave him a cheque and a receipt was issued in lieu thereof. Today at around 10.30 am, i recieved a call from the ABN Amro bank officer namely Mr. prateek, who asked whether i had made the payment or not. I told him that i have issued a cheque, which was collected by their person yesterday. He started asking why did i issued the cheque and why i haven't paid in cash. i asked him what difference does it make. Even other wise i have been paying my bills regularly . and Cheque or cash it doesn't makes a difference. He started shouting at me for no reason. I also scolded him and asked him to talk properly. the matter went out of hand both side abusing each other, ultimately i had to disconnect the phone. Is this customer care or un-care. Once the payment has been made there was no issue of calling. whether i pay in cheque or cash, its my discretion. Who are these people to dictate terms of payment. if i delay the payment they charge penalty, I never asked them not to neither do they show their gratitude by sometime waiving it of. I know it a business and i wont comment on that but some sense needs to be put in them. Customer care as the name suggest should take care of their customers rather then misbehaving with them. Initially i liked the work ethics of ABN bank and thats y i had got this credit card from this bank but now i think every bank has become the same and ABN is not an exception.

Complaint be registered against the misbehaviour of the customer care officer and why do the bank insist on making payment in cash.

Thanks

Dear sir,

I am having credit cards of ABN amro bank and ICICI Bank since last 5-6 years, and I used to pay regular payments every time but after due time they are sending statements after due date and imposing financial charges, late payment charges and other taxes, which are not applicable at all,

I wrote to the customer care for the unwanted amount charging on the bills, but their response was not appreaciable, and I stoped to used credit card sinces 2-3 years and even though I paid regular amounts but finally they continued their system of charging huge amount of bill and I stop to pay the money and I requested them to make settlement of account by clearing money.

Even though I do not received any reponse from customer care,

Therefor I wish to Lodge the complaint uner consumer protection act,

Kindly help us to resove the matter.My credit card details as under:

ABN AMRO BANK CREDIT CARD-BARODA
Card No. [protected]
Name : Satyajit Naik

ICICI BANK CREDIT CARD

Thanks in Advance for kind co-operation.

Subject: Credit Card Grievance

Hi,

Please find required information for CC & revert asap to close this
issue.

Name: Arun K KK
Credit Card # [protected]XXXX

I had very miserable, frustrating moments with ABN Amro Bank for my Card # [protected]XXXX

During the months of September, October & November, 2008 I received unsolicited calls from ABN Amro Credit Card department requesting to avail a Holiday Package worth INR 4500/- and I have been phone stalked on numerous occasions and bugged me all the time to subscribe to the package, while I was traveling, at home & at office. After several warnings on not to call me, they have not heed to my words.

ABN Amro Credit Card agents even convinced me that once subscribed they would send a brochure which contains all necessary information regarding various options included in the package. They even assured me that if I'm not satisfied with the package they would refund the amount with out any charges. Sheer out of frustration and compulsion I had to subscribe as there is always an option to deny the proposal.

I informed ABN Amro Credit Card Agent that my account would go over-limit with this transaction and informed to wait until the due date, despite that I was charged on the same day.

I have not received the brochure as they promised that it would take no more than 7 working days. When I called the Credit Card department, they transferred to another team which takes care of promotions/ offers. The agent said that they cannot ship the brochure until they do not receive the Credit Card payment for that transaction (INR 4500/-), however, I said that when you have already debited INR
4500/- from my card how come you cannot ship the package, after arguing, I insisted to cancel the request and suggested to revert the transaction. To my utter surprise the agent denied me of doing that
and he claimed that the transaction was placed purely on your request and approval, so they cannot cancel the transaction. The agent was very harsh on me during the call and when demanded, he said that even his team leader or any superior cannot revert the transaction, however he suggested to payback only INR 1500/- and they would charge INR 3000/+ towards cancellation charges & other charges (said they have already paid to concerned Holiday Package Vendor). I outright denied the option and warned them I will not be able to make any other payments towards my credit card; however they did not care much.

The irony is INR 4500 was debited, as per the agent transaction is complete and the package would each in 7days. And I really wonder why they were waiting for my payment to be made before they could ship the package?

Realistically speaking, they should not have hold back the package.

I had literally miserable experience and they have made false promises and cheated on me.
On due date, 27th of November, 2008, I received a call from[protected]‏ threatening me to make the payment immediately and started saying I've involved in fraud and misuse of the card. I would like to get an explanation on what basis you judge I've committed fraud? There was a third person who was on the call, who entered while I was insisting for explanation to cool off things. Good that I've recorded those two calls which reflect how good your Hindi speaking Agents work for you and I've ample proof to show case the *customer service* offered to the customers. And I've a call which would make ABN Amro Bank accountable for and I need an unconditional apology and compensation for pestering. I would submit these call recordings to appropriate authority, if no resolution offered.

My key objectives:
* I need an explanation on fraud & misuse of the card
* I've committed as stated by your reps. And what basis you judge a transaction as fraud ?
* Revert the transaction of 4500/-.
* Cancel all the overdue, and interest charges levied starting from that transaction date.

Regards
Arun

I've updated my contact number and new billing address.

I've stopped the payment because of your service and not due to any
financial crisis at my end.

Dear Sir,

I received a promotion call from ABN AMRO marketing executive that they are giving a gift voucher or coupons for 30% discount on makemytrip tours, and they said that this will be charged as and when we use. But they have debited an amount of Rs.5000.00 in my card which was not intimated to me on 29.03.2009. When I knew this I immediately called the customer service and checked and I told them the fact, now this is arguing with me that i have given the confirmation to debit, but I am very sure that I did not. He offered me a discount of Rs. 1250 on that amount and said it will be reversed. Which I dont want to accept. Apart from this they have also put a overlimt charge for the amount 600.00. This is absolutely a fradulent practice and I never expected this kind of double standard.

Now i need to file an official complaint on ABN AMRO where they claim that they have my voice recorded, which is not true.

How do I proceed, Please help.

Dear Sir,

I was an employee of ANB Amro Bank, Narinam Point Mumbai. I Joined ABN Amro in May 2003 and resigned on June 2007. My initial emp code was 6359 and later on it changed to 10254.
After asking about my pf account no to my employer they informed my emp code is my pf account number and the amount has been deposited to PF Trust of ABN Amro Bank.

Since then I am continuously following with ABN Amro but they are not showing interests to return my PF; I have submitted pf withdrawl forms twice to ABN Amro but no reply has been given.

Few days back I called ABN HR and they informed that my notice period balance is due as I left the organisation with lesser notice period. Here I want to inform that I left the organisation as my reporting boss was not supporting in my business and wanted my resignation.

My question is
1) Can ABN Amro hold my PF amount against my Notice period balance due?
2) I resigned ABN Amro as my boss created mental pressure to resign then why Notice period question arrissing to pay PF balance?

Request your strict action against ABN Amro to release my PF dues.

Regards,
Biswajit Mitra

I was employed with Mphasis Limited (Formerly EDS Limited) which was registered at Gurgaon, Haryana. I resigned from their services and applied for withdrawal of my PF dues by submitting the required forms with the employer. My employer has confirmed to me that the forms have been submitted to the PF office Gurgaon on 18.11.2008. However, I am yet to receive the refund of my PF dues, nor have I received any intimation from the PF office.

Request if this can be looked into and the amount remitted to me at the earliest.
My pf no. is HR/GGN/25139/1161.

From last 3Years 1 Month, I am requesting to ABN Amro Bank to cancel my credit card but they are not taking my request positively. Now a days, they are saying me that I have some dues and I need to pay, then they will cancel. Actually, I am not getting that why I will pay my dues when I haven't used that card after my cancellation request(24th Feb 2006). This same question I asked them but they informed me that all dues are only due to late fee. But I want to inform you some points -

1. On 24th Feb 2006 I requested ABN Amro customer care executive (by phone and mail) for canceliation of my credit card. But my call was dropped in between and after that I tried 2/3 time then also same thing was happened. Their repsentative asked me about reason and many other thing, I informed her about my problem but she was unable to give me any information. Then I sent a mail to ABN Amro card services.

2. In March first week, they called me on my cell phone and at that time again I told them that I want to cancel my credit card and also asked why the other amount is coming into my bill, but that person was unable to give me complete information.

3. In March I paid all due bills as I requested for cancellation on 24 feb, then again in April new bill was generated, then I called them again and requested very gently that "please cancel my card", and then after also in April I paid bill. Then I felt they are not hearing my voice, and I have to take an action.

4. I went to ABN Amro bank branch at MG Road, Pune and asked about my request status but they told me that for credit cards queries, I can contact them through phone-banking only. And really at that point of time I was totally tensed that why I had taken credit card, I pormised my self not to take any credit card in future.

5. In April Mid I called them again, then they told me that for cancellation you need to cut your credit card into piece and drop that in drop-box with signed application. And according to there instruction I did. But after one month they informed me about my dues of April and May and wanted that I will pay. Then I respond them that I already sent you cut card with signed application, and asked them "How are these dues came?". And they informed me that they didn't get any cut card. In this case what can I do, if they are not getting any envolope from their own drop box.

I have all proofs of whatever communication I did (all mail and written communications). They are using rough language and mentally harashing me. I am completely in pathetic situation. Please help me.

Dear Mr. Trivedi,

This is in reference to your email dated February 25, 2009.

We express our inability to offer you settlement on your card as well as loan account.

We wish to inform you that we have reviewed your case and have observed that although you have been making the payments for the transactions incurred by you, the payments on the account have not been satisfying the outstanding balance on your credit card and hence there is an accrual of finance charges.

Please note that late fees are levied due to non payment of at least minimum amount due within payment due date. The finance charges are levied due to non payment of total outstanding within payment due date.

We express our inability to reverse any charges on your card account.

We would like to inform you that total outstanding on your card account is Rs .41, 817.09.

We will like to inform you that Late Payment Fee is charged if either there has been no payment or a payment less than the EMI amount is received by the payment due date.

We will like to clarify that the easy cash loan was offered to you at an emi of Rs.4, 679.00 . This formed the tad on your account. However since we did not receive the payment of the amount due, late payment fee has been levied resulting in an increase in the TAD.

Since the subsequent payments have not satisfied the total amount due this has further lead to the levy of the late payment fee.

We express our inability to reverse late fee on your loan account.

You may also quote the reference number:[protected], in case you need any further clarification on the above resolution.

Please feel free to write back to us for any further clarifications in this regard or call our 24-hour Bank by Phone service in your city and our executive will be glad to assist you.

Assuring you of our best services.

Yours sincerely,
A

Now they have blocked my both cards since I had not paid for some time. But from last three months my combined balance on both cards have been brought down to Rs. 40, 000/- Recently I requested the bank people to activate my cards so that I can start transaction on any one card, but they are not allowing me to do so. what is the way out in this situation. Hope yo will help me out in this regard

Even after the involvement of RBI to control the recesion problems, banks like ABN AMRO still taking attitude to make suffer the cutomers.even after giving lot of directives from Finance Ministry to the banks, we find that the banks are still not reducing the home loan interest rates.

Though SBI PLR as at 1st Jan 2009 stands at 12.25%, ABN Amro Bank is still maintaining ABN PLR at 12.75% . Please mkae aware about this facts to all cutomers, so that people should aware this fraudness of banks

To
The Manager,

I wish to inform that Abn amro bank has given me dining plus card without my requirement and for that they have raised a bill for Rs 6000/-.Regarding that i have called there customer care they told me that they will rectify it but till today they have not done any thing few month ago i have sended my credit card and dining card to there Head office at Noida.but till today they are asking me to pay the amount for the card.

Since i have not requested them to give me extra card so i am not liable to pay.so i wish to lodge complaint against them for demanding and unused bill amount.kindly suggest me what i do

Dear Sir/Madam,

Few years ago I used Abn Amro bank credit card. I made the payment in time but due to the bank mistake they credited my payment late. the result of this was that they charged me interest & late payment. but I had made the payment in time & that was not my fault & I sent many mails to bank to the bank but received no reply.
Then there collection guy started teasing me & to get rid of them I made the payment.
Now that was not my fault & even then I made the extra payment & the bank has given my name in cibel default list.
You can check I had a lot of card & I made all the payment accordingly.
Plz sir look into the matter.
Yours Truely

Dear Pehredar Team,

ABN AMRO Bank – Credit Card - Claiming Payment for Unused Card

In 2006 I have applied for ABN AMRO Credit Card, with an agent who came to our office with bundle of offers..
a) Lifetime free
b) Rs. 5000 Gift Vouchers
c) Travel Ticket for GOA
d) First Year Free Medical Insurance

Lured by the offer I have applied for the card, giving my old...

I have been provided with incorrect and false informantion regarding your 4 seasons offer by ABN AMRO bank and my consent for understanding of the offer was misutilized as my consent for accepting the offer. I was even told that this offer is valid in places like Mumbai and Delhi, but when I checked it with the bank's site it was completely different from what was told on the phone.

I immediately called the customer care (date 06/02/2009) about this foul play and repeatedly asked NOT to charge or commit this transaction on my card. Despite the assureance from the customer care that no charges will be levied, I am charged with offer price.

Even worse was when I called the customer care to enquire regarding the charges, I was informed that there was no request placed for the cancellation of the charges.

QUERIES REMAIN UNANSWERED:

At the outset please accept our sincere gratitude for the time taken and effort made by you, in sharing your concerns with us.

We wish to once again inform you that the IAF (Investment Application Form) is an account opening form to open an account with the bank for investment services.

Regarding your concerns on the discrepant forms, we wish to advise that discrepant forms are destroyed in the absence of a resolution post teleconfirmation with the client. However it seems due to an oversight this call was not made prior to destruction of the form. We regret for the same.

With reference to your request for hard copies of the Banks policy, we wish to inform you that this is in line with the Banks internal guidelines.

We hope the above addresses your concerns appropriately and the matter stands resolved to your complete satisfaction.

However, should you require any further assistance, please feel free to contact us by e-mailing us on in.servic [protected]@in.abnamro.com or alternately by calling our 24 hour Bank-By-Phone service on 2491 4001.
