Query reference number: 12221188074
Dear sir,
I have applied for a HDFC platinum credit card approximately one month
back (App number 12072115026650S5, if I guess correctly). I ve
received a call from your bank thereafter (from a number 0484-3951251,
Miss. Rukia) and they have collected various details from me to check
the eligibility. Then they had asked for the supporting documents to
be collected from my home. Meanwhile the the same executive called me
and informed me that there is an option of 'diners club card' which
has advanced features, and she made me to speak to her manager (Mr.
Saji, Phone No. 9349788300). As he was insisting me that I should take
this 'diners club card', I asked him whether this card can be used in
all merchant and other locations where a normal HDFC and other credit
can be used. He replied that this diners club card can be used in all
locations and has advanced features than the platinum card. I agreed
to go for a diners club card after his call and I had received the
card (bearing card number: 3608XXXXXX0472) after approximately 2
weeks. Once I started using it, I realised that the card is not
recognized in almost all locations in and around kochi. The card put
me in embarrassed situations in many merchandise, as it is not
recognized, and many a time 'contact the issuer' message popped up.
Some people even suspected me of using a stolen card. Then I called up
Miss. Rukia and Mr. Saji many times and both of them didn't respond to
me promptly and told me many excuses rather than listening to my
request to upgrade to a platinum card. After so many calls and
constant persuasion Mr. Saji finally agreed that this card can be used
in few selected locations only. My use of the card is mainly in and
around kochin and i would like to use this card in all locations,
whether it is HDFC terminal, old or new, or any merchandise where a
credit card is accepted. There is no point in keeping card just for
simply paying only subscription charges. In view of the foregoing,
Kindly accept my application for changing/upgrading this 'diners club
card' to a 'platinum card' which i can use in all merchendise where a
credit card is accepted..............regrads.....K. S. Anish
