A.Dear Sir,
CREDIT CARD HOW TO PROTEST
Dear Sir,
Yes, whether amount is small or big, not an issue. The MNC’s earn lot with such small amounts. For eg SBI earned more than R.1,000 Cr by charging Rs.50/- only. You have following options

1) To send reply to notice by yourself ( no effective)
2) To send reply notice by lawyer (costly and may not result into any positive result)
3) Complaint to Consumer Forum for damages
4) Online Complaint with Ombusdman

12. Redressal of grievances
12.1 Generally, a time limit of 60 (sixty) days may be given to the customers for referring their complaints/grievances.
12.2 The card issuing bank/NBFC should constitute Grievance Redressal machinery within the bank/NBFC and give wide publicity about it through electronic and print media. The name and contact number of designated grievance redressal officer of the bank/NBFC should be mentioned on the credit card bills. The designated officer should ensure that genuine grievances of credit card subscribers are redressed promptly without involving delay.
12.3 Banks/NBFCs should ensure that their call centre staff is trained adequately to competently handle all customer complaints.
12.4 Banks/NBFCs should also have a mechanism to escalate automatically unresolved complaints from a call center to higher authorities and the details of such mechanism should be put in public domain through their website.
12.5 The grievance redressal procedure of the bank/NBFC and the time frame fixed for responding to the complaints should be placed on the bank's website. The name, designation, address and contact number of important executives as well as the Grievance Redressal Officer of the bank/NBFC may be displayed on the website. There should be a system of acknowledging customers' complaints for follow up, such as complaint number/docket number, even if the complaints are received on phone.

Fraudulent transaction conducted on your account

The moment you realize a fraudulent transaction is being carried out on your account, you will have to act swiftly:

1. Inform your bank of the unauthorized transaction as soon as possible, maximum within 3 days of occurrence. You can do this by contacting them via phone banking facility, SMS, email, toll-free number or by visiting a bank branch.
