Citibank
Huge interests

Sir,

When i was studying graduation, Citibank offered me a credit card and they said it is life time free credit card. I didn't use the card at all. One day, they called me and said about royal sundaram health insurance. I was very reluctant about taking that policy. But the citi guy, convinced me saying that just try this and whenever you would like to cancel this, Just send a mail regarding cancellation. I paid amount for first year which is 1600/-. I found it was damn waste of money, So i sent a mail to cancel the medical insurance policy. Despite of my mail they didn't cancel and they deducted the money. Then, I sent a mail saying that i already applied for cancellation of credit card and I am not going to pay the bill this time.

I haven't done a single transaction for myself.

Then i lost the credit card. I informed them about this loss of credit card.

I didn't get any reply from citibank. I used to send a mail everyday. But after a couple of mails, they said it was alreay cancelled as i didn't pay any amount for second year of medical insurance.

Then because of health problems, I didn't get chance to look into this issue again and i forgot about this issue.

Two days back, I applied for a personal loan which was rejected saying that i am a credit card defaulter with citibank. When I see my CIBIL it was mentioned in that.

I called citi bank credit card curstomer, saying this issue, They asked my credit card number. As i didn't remember my credit card number, they asked my name, date of birth and mobile number. Then they confirmed that there is no outstanding amount with this credit card.

But i would like to know why my name is mentioned as a defaulter in CIBIL.

How can i get a proof from citi bank.

I found citibank customer care to be very bad.

Please guide me, how should i proceed further.

If i don't find any solution, I am planning to settle some amount to remove name from CIBIL.

How can citibank has done all these things with students. It has very bad customer care centre.

Regards,

Sriram.
