[Resolved]  ICICI Bank Credit Card — Fraud by ICICI bank

I would like to bring to your attention following facts about the unethical and illegal practice of ICICI Credit card division and bank and cheating being done.

A Credit card No - was issued to me on November 2002 which got expired on November 2004 . First The bank charged [debited ] annual fees from my savings bank account towards the annual charges while It was issued a life time free of cost basis and Later this was amount credited to my card account which is still unused and unnecessarily blocked for no fault of mine.

On August 2007 I was shocked to receive a SMS alert informing that Some transaction has been conducted through the card issued to me .Since I had not used this card at all therefore I immediately informed the customer care to block the card and transactions through this card.

I was assured through a telephone call from your customer care division that needful will be done and card has been blocked.

After that my credit card statement issued to me for the period August- September 07 reflected an amount of Rs.17958/ only to be paid to the bank for the transactions supposedly conducted by me . I informed the customer care that these transactions have not been done by me at all and I had already informed customer care about it.

Subsequently a fresh statement reversing the amount of Rs. 17958/ was issued pending enquiry into the matter.

After some time bank issued statement reflecting the amount again which I had not spent through my card.

I had sent many letters and emails to charge back department [ as advised by customer care ]to explain how transactions have been conducted and authorised by the credit card division but no reply on the matter has been sent to me till date about it.

Subsequently I met one of your employee from credit card collection Mr Ankit Goel ( Rohini Delhi Branch )to resolve the issue but he neither resolved nor revert on the case despite of my rigorous follow-up.

Now from January 2008 onward Your recovery agent start to calling me and abusing me for delay payments and on 1 st March 2008 I received an SMS that ICICI bank has transfered an amount of Rs. 20,760.00 from my Saving Bank accountno .This has been done without any information, discussion or knowledge .

Dear Sir,
ICICI Bank has provided me with ICICI Bank Home Card no. [protected] valid from 09 2004 to 09/2008. The card was sent to me without any application from my side.
The above card was never used by me.
In August 2007 I was given a threat on the telephone call to deposit the ICICI credit card due amount immediately. The person calling me claimed to be speaking from Tees Hazari Adalat, Delhi. I was informed telephonically that I have an outstanding of Rs.13, 180 on my Card.
I have tried to get the detailed information regarding the so-called due on me telephonically from ICICI Bank customer care centre, and even by personally verify the Bank Jaipur Branch (Upasana Tower, C-Scheme), but could not get any satisfactory answer. Even the so-called due details are never furnished to me, despite of my asking for I again and again.
Recently I have come to know that my name has been put on CIBIL as a defaulter.
My Kind request that please take necessary action in this matter. I want to No dues certificat and my name to be removed from CIBIL as defaulter immediately within 5 days, otherwise I will be forced to take strict legal action against ICICI Bank, which includes claims for the damaged social and financial reputation.
• Treat this e-mail as my last warning in the above matter.

Looking for an immediate action

ICICI Bank — Fraud committed by ICICI Bank by unauthorizedly issuing Credit Card on my name

ICICI BANK IS THE BIGGEST FRAUD BANK WHO ENCOURAGES FRADAULENT TRANSACTIONS FIRST, THEN ASKING FOR PAYMENT FOR THOSE TRANSACTION.

On 20th Sept. 2009, while checking my online Salary account with ICICI Bank, I found that my Salary account has been blocked & due to this reason I could not withdraw any amount from my account. Then I immediately went to nearest branch of ICICI Bank in ICICI Bank for finding out the reason for such action.

Upon enquiring, it was informed to me that this blocking was done due to outstanding amount against Credit Card purchase done for Rs. 179166/-. They refused to part with any other information & advised me to visit Credit Card Division at Jaipur for finding out details of such transactions.

In ICICI Bank Credit Card Division, Jaipur, I was informed me that a Credit Card No. [protected] was delivered to me in Aug. 2006 at Malviya Nagar Address & delivery of the same was taken by Ankit, who had identified himself as my Son. On my further enquiry that Credit Card delivery is made only after taking the Identity proof of the person who is taking the delivery, ICICI bank refused to share any of the details with me like identity of person who had taken the delivery i.e. Copy of his Identity Document which shows his name along with Father’s name also.
Once this anomaly was brought to the notice of the bank thru email i.e. customer.[protected]@ICICIbank.com , on 12th Oct. 2009, I received a apology mail from Mr. Sanjay Bhave, Office of Head Customer Service, ICICI Bank Ltd., that the lien marked on my Bank account have been removed & he apologized for the inconvenience caused.
At that time I thought that the matter is closed & brought to its logical conclusion.

But I was surprised to receive a letter again from ICICI Bank on 10th Feb. 2010, that as per their RCU investigation of the facts as stated by me, it is confirmed that Credit Card No. [protected] was delivered to my address thru Express IT Courier vide AWB No.[protected] on 2nd Aug. 2006 & credit card was received by my Son, Mr. Ankit Sekhon, by providing his Driving License[protected]P[protected]. Letter further states that our investigation of the facts has confirmed that the transactions took place on my Credit Card. Hence, I’m liable to pay this outstanding amount at the earliest.
Further, despite many requests ICICI bank is not providing any documentary proof of investigation along with Copy of Driving License which was provided by receiver of Card as Identity proof.

Here I want to clarify further that at the time of delivery of Credit Card i.e. 2nd Aug. 2006, the actual age of my son was only 1 yr., they how could he provide his driving license as proof even when he was minor at that time.

Bank is maintaining a deafening silence on such question & refusing to move from their position. Yesterday, I got a call from some lawyer in Delhi that unless I paid up the outstanding amount, Bank will move forward for legal proceeding against me.


One thing is very clear that either ICICI Bank doesn’t want to own up the mistake committed on their part of some officials of ICICI Bank are party to this fraud & benefitting from this fraud. This can be further cemented by fact that till date they have not provided any documentary proof that Mr. Ankit Sekhon is my Son & his driving License also carries my name as his father.


As far as my Credit history is concerned, till date i have never ever defaulted on any of my Loans. Currently, I have a Car Loan of Rs. 300000/- going on at ICICI Bank but there have not been any single instance of any default. Why would I default on smaller amount which is half of my current load.


Never in my life i have seen a worst bank than ICICI Bank & vowed that after solving this problem, I will never ever deal with Bank & also asked my employer to change Salary Account to some other bank but not any other Bank. My employer had also confirmed that they have already started to negotiate with other Banks for benefits & previlages to be offered to all employees.


Now I have no other option left but to approach consumer court & ask for the compensation for mental agony & cost of legal proceeding.

ICICI Bank Credit Card — No coordination and not even cross referencing of earlier correspondences

I had paid my credit card bill by cheque much before the due date. Fair enough I got a call that my cheque has not been received. Aftewr no. of mails to Customercare I was informed that the card no. is wrong on the cheque and hence the same could not be encashe. I put in a n ICCI Bank cheque on 9/7/2010 in the drop box at Tot Mall Sector62 Noida at 3 PM. I was informed the receipt of cheque would take 3 days. After five days today I get a call that the payment has not been made hence I would not be able to use my card. This is absurd when the current bill received today on mail reflects this outstanding amount alongwith interest for which due date is 29th July 2010. How can then my card be blocked. I have on my own been writing mails to customer care to tell me the latest status nand lo and behold I geta mail from them that my cheque of 24th June could not be encashed because of wrong card no. and I am addressed as Mr Shankar where as Iam Ms Anurag Shankar (Female). It seems that nobody is serious about customercare they dont go into the full correspondence do not coordinate with other related departments etc. etc.I wish that people on help dsks are more resposible and professional in their jobs. They are more of harrasment officers than customer service officer. Being a senior citizen old customer and being making timely payments this attitude hurts. email address [protected]@gmail.com

ICICI Bank Credit Card — Name not cleared from C-Bill

Kindly suggest how can i do it my self in this case. I have e-mail from the bank regarding zeroization status and no dues.

Dear Tapan,

I have read your whole details with great interest.There are lot of victims out here who have similar situation like yours. Please allow me to inform you few things as a professional expert.

In all SETTLEMENT cases ; in a prima facie, Banks use to incurr a huge financial loss and thats what as per the guidelines they reserve the right to refer your card details to the negative database/regulators such as CIBIL which appears as " WRITTEN OFF " or " SETTLED ".

As far as CIBIL is concern, CIBIL [ CREDIT INVESTIGATION BUREAU OF INDIA LTD.] is a organisation which has come into existence by the joint effort of the government of India and the RBI ; with the idea to gather all existing consumer and commercial credit information and pool it in a one-point source, for reference.


Also It is an informative database of all customers having any kind of financial liabilities (past/current and good/bad) with all the financial institutions. This database is updated by all the financial institutions on a periodic basis with regards to the payment track of customer. Hence, he customers name are never deleted but are updated on a periodic basis in the database.It provides only those information which are being shared by its members [ Presently banks, financial institutions, state financial corporations, non-banking financial companies, housing finance companies and credit card companies are members of CIBIL ] about any customer on its report.

You may note that It acts as weeding mechanism that helps identify repayment track records of the customer. It helps protect lenders from giving credit to people and establishments who are unlikely to repay what is lent. Even if credit is provided, it is done so at a very high rate of interest, thereby ensuring that the bank is able to recover a considerable sum of money even if a default happens some time into the loan tenure.On the other hand, on the availability of an impeccable repayment track record, one can reap benefits from it too.Banks provide a lower interest rate for sound credit profiles that have excellent credit scores .It also helps lenders and banks quickly process a loan, without wasting valuable time on research and background check on the loan applicant.

Now i do not have any idea that in what circumtances you have gone for SETTLEMENT with your availed credit facility with ICICI BANK LTD.

You may write me if require any further clarification / assistance.
