CREDIT CARD SETTLEMENT
« on: September 29, 2010, 11:11:31 AM »
I had a credit card issued in 2007 from HDFC Bank.
Over a period of about 8-9 months , then smaller amounts in a period of 2 years time I had used arounf 99091/-. I had been paying around the minimum amount every month regularly. ;Last 2 years the collection agengies have been very rude nad I have tried to go for settlement but some how inthe monthend the collection guys harass to such extent , it becomes impossible to keep the cool and i ended up apying the minimum amount every time.
 I have paid arounf 137950/- untill date. The bank has levied 87491/- Rs as finance charges , 17060 as late fee, 10672 as service tax.
The total outstanding is still around 73000/- Rs.
 I have contacted the Credit card division , they want me to pay the entire amount , they have to say that the settlement is entirely as per the bank discretion, pl assist.

Well, negotiate with the bankers. See any of the staff is willing to help you.

Your last option will be http://credit.cardbhai.com/2009/12/how-to-settle-credit-loan-defaults.html

However, note that failing to pay in FULL, your Credit History will be damaged and further loans etc will not be possible.
