Free Legal Advise
We offer free basic advise to enable you to decide as to what steps you can take or what kind of action you can initiate against the wrong doer company. Consumer Law in India is mostly based in Consumer Protection Act 1986, which contains little over 30 provisions/sections and it was last amended in the year 2002.
The Consumer Protection Act 1986 provides for the creation of District Consumer Redressal Forums at District level, e.g Delhi alone has nine District Consumer Forums functioning at different places. Jurisdiction of District Forums depends of the place of office of opposite party or the value of subject matter. The pecunary jurisdiction for the District Consumer Courts is Rs 20 Lakhs, and while you need to approach State Commission in your state in case of value of goods/compensation claimed exceeds 20 Lakhs.
You can drop your query here for free guidance and in case required, we can even help you get professional advise from an experienced and highly qualified advocate.

Good Morning,
I received an electricity bill from NDPL of Rs. 19539/- in dec 2010 with a disconnection notice. They have transferred the dues of a temporary connection which was disconnected in 2005 & a new permanent connection was provided. I approached CRGF (Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum) for NDPL. Per order passed by CGRF in May 2011, NDPL has to pay me Rs. 3900/- (appx) as the security deposit as security of the temporary connection was never refunded by NDPL. Instead of refunding the money, they have sent another disconnection notice and with the non-payment dues of Rs 1450. I wrote to district manager of NDPL against the harassment & contempt of CGRF but no action was taken on complaint. Moreover, NDPL was sending their collection agents to collect the payment and disconnection of electricity, though all my current bills were paid. This was very embarrassing in neighborhood. Eventually, I approached CDRF and filled a case against the contempt of court, mental harassment, threatening & for embarrassing dec 2011.
Please suggest does consumer law give me a legal right to ask for an apology and compensation from NDPL.
Regards
Amrit

I, the undersigned, Varghese Winston, hereby state as under, working with “Hesel Engineering Pvt. Ltd,” in Cochin as a “MIS Coordinator”. I have a Salary Account in HDFC Bank (A/C # 05201050073480), Palarivattom, Cochin, Kerala. My HDFC Bank Customer ID is 32789089. And also HDFC issued Credit Card number is 4346781008931743.
The card limit is Rs.15000/-. At that time I employed with Hesel Engineering Pvt. Ltd. I have used this efficiently nearly more than Five Months. I met with an accident in the meanwhile and fractured my right hand, Due to financial constraints; I was not able to pay my credit card payments for two months. But I had paid promptly for the previous five months.
I used to get calls frequently from HDFC bank collection team insisting me to make a payment of Rs.1000/- in order not to deactivate my card. I had discussed all the financial problems as well as about the fracture on my wrist, which allowed neither go to my office nor paid for those days from the office.
I have requested HDFC bank people to give one more month to make payment, but they send certain people to my residence and asked for the complete amount, when I enquired about the same one of the executives from HDFC recovery team holding Mob Number: 9846233244, talked inappropriately and threatened that he knows how to collect the amount, At first I decided to go with cyber cell, but one of my friend turned me off, later I got a call form one of the landlines from HDFC bank recovery team and again asked to settle the amount, then I asked for the misbehavior of the executive to me, and also replied that once the bank called me for the settlement only I’ll pay the amount, there were lots of disputes with the credit card account that I’m being charged higher for not paying the amount for the past couple of months, till then I used to get calls in my land phone and sometimes my mother who is very old would be handling the phone but the executives from HDFC whoever calls up insist her to make the payment using filthy language and improper words.
In the meanwhile I lost my Job in December 2010 and for months I could not find out a new job, because of the financial problem, I decided to settle my PF account (KR/19859/534) and the amount was supposed to come to the above said HDFC account as there was no bank account with me, If I was working with one of the other employers, I would get one of the other bank accounts. On 13th May 2011, My PF account settled and an amount of 22706/- has been credited to my HDFC Bank account, I withdrew an amount of 6500/- and by the evening when I checked in the ATM and the balance was 0.00INR, Checked with the net banking and understood that the amount has been held from the bank, but the bank was not informed me before holding the amount, survival in jobless situation was very crucial.
HDFC Bank held an amount of 16206/- in my account, but I have used the credit card for purchasing around 8000/- and the bill amount reflects as 25916/-, Secondly I’ll have to get time to settle my credit card. I have not authorized HDFC bank for blocking my account and recovering money without giving intimation, I also have not activated the feature of auto debit.
Later I went to the Credit card department of HDFC bank for the settlement and asked for the non usage waiver, they were not given any waiver and they have posted this Rs.16206/- to credit card account and asked for another 9000/- to settle.
After 8 months 13/01/2012, two of the recovery executives came to my home and threatened my aged parents and checked with my relatives and friends using filthy language. Now I would like to file a complaint against the HDFC bank for the way they hard collect the amount. I ‘m very much afraid about the rowdies whoever comes at home regularly and now claim an amount of 17000/ due for immediate payment.
