Hello Experts ,
I recently applied for a fresh Home loan , a few days later was informed by the bankers that there is a negative reference in my CIBIL report (they gave me the control number when I asked details, with a request to get the same cleared after discussion with respective cc bank .
Instantly I remembered the telephonic calls received in last week of March , where a caller who identified herself fromStandard Chartered Bank called asking for me to settle against a old credit card which still showedin their records .....(I had not take the call seriously and thought this might me some collection agency trying to extract something out of an old case ).I vaguely remembered that I had settled the same owing to a dispute /disagreement on the interest payable over an outstanding which had rolled on and subsequent closure of the cc ,by paying the amount asked by them .
No documents are with me (I searched all files / old papers , but since this matter is > 8-9 years old and as per me there was no reason to carry on with any receipts/ bills which was paid for !!)
How do I get out of this matter , Please advice .
I have tried to give below the complete correspondence which I have had since I heard for the home loan deptt about it .
Regards
Mayank

Dear Mr Balu Jayaraman,
Thanks for writing in responce to my various mail to your generic e-mail i.ds.
On the subject , Unfortunately it is such a long time & we have shifted residence thrice since 2002 , ' am unable to trace any past correspondence in connection to this card number .
My belief is there should be no outstanding , nevertheless , forward me complete details of past transactions and any corresponcence which the bank would have done , for my better understanding .
I have applied for a housing loan and understand from them that there is a negative reference in my CIBIL report , so this matter needs to be sorted immediately to clear this negative reference against an otherwise clean rating !!
Solicit your support in getting this matter resolved ASAP.
Regards
Mayank

Hello There ,
Some more details....that I had perhaps scribbled on my writing pad during the conversation ...just saw it and hence sending for your benefit & record checking .

another male caller who threatened me on phone of dire consequences ( I am trying to trace the caller number from my call records )
Credit card:- xxxx xxxx xxxx 8398
Current O/S :- 1,08,871.00
I expect some reply , whether it was really a call from SCB ( in that event perhaps have to get a legal perspective from my layers ) or was it a false call .
Please clarify ASAP.

Subject: SCB credit card matter ....
To: head.service@sc.com, customer.care@sc.com
Hello There ,
My name is Mayank , I have the following queries ......
In the month of March 2010 ,received a call on my mobile xxxxxxxxxx , about a past credit card (number of which I do not remember now , ) which was discontinued in 2002 by me ,asking to settle outstanding to the tune of >1lacs on the card.
The call came from a Delhi land line .
The caller identified herself as from the recovery div. of the SCB and indicated that since the Credit card due was not settled in time ,the amount has grown to >1 lacs today.
On asking details , I was indicated that apparently some payment was made in 2002 and after that SCB was not able to trace me ?? I wonder why ?
I was asked to settle the same immediately , else the same be referred to CIBIL which will make my creditworthiness bad.
for past , I remembered that due to some on-payment ndiscussion , I had asked SCB to clear my card dues; settle and close the Credit card ........I presumed that it was done .That was in 2002 .Anyways I conveyed the same this time and the lady insisted that i check my proof and that she will call back again after 2 days .
After almost 8 years and 03 major shifting of home premises , I found no records of any past transaction with SCB with me , which I promptly conveyed to the lady when she called back after 02 days and conveyed my inability to proceed ahead without any formal details passed on to me now.
I also asked what were the details of the transactions against which the O/S today stood at such a high figure ...she said her records only mentions that the credit limit on my card was 30k and due to no records of settlement in the SCB computers the same has now multiplied .....
I asked for a mail on the same but was refused .
On asking why after so many years they are approaching me ,was conveyed that they have been able to trace me only now ???
With no information for me to vouch for the veracity of the statement , I conveyed my displeasure and said it will not be possible now for me to pay (considering the time which has passed and no supporting details from SCB )
I was conveyed that they can settle and resolve the same @30000.00 as a special case ......and clear off my case from CIBIL
I was taken a back ...how is it expected for anyone to keep track of a credit card which in my opinion was cleared by me and closed years back .
I would want to understand what are the details of the said matter ( i do not even remember my credit card number ) the details of the transactions , payments made by me etc. I am sure if the call was genuine SCB will surely have a log of the discussions and will be able to support me with the details .............to amicabily settle the matter .
Kindly forward the same on my mail / following address
Regards
Mayank

I am central Govt. employee having GPF account. The interest on the balance to the credit is credited to the account every year. i.e a simple interest on yearly basis is paid as per CCS rules. But I find EPF interest is credit on the balance available every month. i.e the interest is compounded monthly. Why this desparity. Can this be legally challenged.
