Don’t want ICICI folks to call you ?

Don’t want the ICICI bank folks call you and bug you about their products?
Try this link : http://www.inuonline.com/dnc/donotcall.asp (linked from the ICICI bank home page)
From the above link :
We respect your privacy, and appreciate if you do not want us to contact you over phone for any telemarketing activity. If that is so, you may use the Do Not Call form below to register your name and any of your phone number(s) that you want excluded from our calling lists.
This is a welcome move. Will have to wait and see if they will religiously follow it.
Would be great if there is a nationwide central repository in India too which all the companies can adhere to. I guess, its already present in US.

I have entered all my telephone numbers on the Do not call registry of ICICI bank. Take my word for it this registry is a sham.
Not only DSA, I get calls from their branches also.
So,
I decided to give the ICICI bank a dose of their own medicine.
I have circulated a list of mobile phone numbers of various officers in ICICI Bank to my staff. When ever we receive a call from ICICI bank the caller is politely asked to contact the right person and gives the number of ICICI bank officers number to the caller. I promise they will never ever call you back. Any person to be really bugged will be people at ICICI bank.

I had a card with ICICI and wanted to close the card(final settlement). When the agent called me for the bill payment i requested for closure and they told me that my total outstanding was around 80k and they will settle it for around 70k. They sent an agent from an agency called sukruthi which is a collection agency for ICICI in bangalore I believe and I paid the amount in cheque but the person who collected the cheque refused to give a closure letter. He made me talk to his manager called prem from chennai and he told me that the bank will send the closure letter within 3 days and I never got it. They sent me bills after bills. I posted complaints after complaints and I wanted to talk to a manager. But it never happened for last 5 months. and Yesterday this guy called sanjay called from the bank and started shouting at me and insulting me. He says i dont have proof that anyone in ICICI has promised you to send the closure letter. I am planning to approach the consumer rights council for this. Beware of ICICI final settlements. Please consult a lawyer before you go for a Final settlement with ICICI bank. The bank is completely un ethical in banking and have indecent people as their managers. As you know the bank has been known as the most notorious one for using gundas for recovery of interests etc. I have heard about several such incidents. Kindly avoid banking with them. I have closed the loan that i had with them and similarly this card also.

I have a ICICI Bank Credit Card. I had paid Rs. 15,000/- towards the payment by Bankers Cheque. Somehow the DD got bounced and i got a call from ICICI for the same. They promised to return me the same and took the minimum amt due from me. But till date almost a year this people have not yet returned me the demand draft. ICICI is the most disgusting and a fraud bank. I will suggest beware of this bank.

I too had registered for teh do not call service and yet keep getting calls from ICICI bank. Worse still, ICIC Bnk issued an EMI Card on my name, issued the card to someone else, who has now spent it for about Rs.50K. ICICI Bank’s call centre, as usual, does not provide an appropriate response, and the issue is still pending even after writing to Anirush Kamani In Mumbai.
It is time some of the ICICI Fatcats decide to get into the real world and solve their customer’s problems rather than blowing the banks money on expensive travel and hotels.
Let us start a blog directed at ICICI’s malpractices, as that can be the best way of creating prssure on the bank. What say?

It is not possible to contact the ICICI bank branches at all. I have some pending issues and everytime I have to deal with their phone banking service. They keep you on hold for at least 15 mins and then do not solve your query. You are asked to contact the branch personally. Evrytime you call the phone banking nos. you get connected to a new person and must explain the problem from begining. Why can’t ICICI give their branch nos? I am fed up with this bank.

I totally agree that ICICI sucks!
I dont even ave an account with this bank. Yet somebody else’s account details get sent to me twice everyday!
I feel sorry for this person as this is a violation of his privacy.
I tried calling customer support but it is only a waste of money!!!
DONT BANK WITH ICICI…. they are unreliable and give out your personal, private details to total strangers

£300 sent by noney2india to my 87 year old uncle on 27 September has still not been received. Have made more than 20 telephone enquiries to no avail.
Can this behaviour be called theft by ICICI BAnk?

Hello Kiran
If you have other bank credit card then you can go for balance transfer. Using BT you can save on interest you are paying on your outstanding amount. BT options are available for 0% for 3 months or 0.75% for 6 months like this. you can choose and save
regards
