Stolen credit card

Oh no, it's backed by the largest bank in India-the State Bank of India. the problem lies with Visa and Mastercard, they put in conditions for which anyone in the USA will sue their butts off and laugh all the way to the bank after winning all the public interest litigations. The brown skins can be looted though in their own countries.

Thanks for your comments!

I have already filed a police complaint the moment I realized that the card was stolen and got the card blocked. No progres because the credit card company and probably good ole GE is dragging their heels in producing the transcations slips, now suddenly they are claiming a 60 time bar limit that is over. I informed them within 3 days and sent the disputed transcations from within eight, and they claim that I was late. My mistake was that I set them an email (after confirmation that email correspondence was okay), now they imply that I should have sent them a hard copy by courier of all the things, because couriers proof of delivery is generally not accepted by most Courts. Even if I approach the courts-this will be long, lengthy and time consuming affair, I think I still gotta pay up, maybe the money will be kept in abayence till the courts decision. The Indian courts are bogged down with too many cases and this will be treated as too small an amount to really merit a judge's attention too soon.

Oh, and thanks for you comments!

The thing is that the card didin't get blocked inspite of 82 cash withdrawal attempts. The Credit card company says that only debit cards get blocked after 3 or4 wrong ATM pin attempts. If it had got blocked at that time, the person would not have been able to make purchases at all and I would no be poorer by 13000 plus bucks.

Oh, and tahnks for you comments!

Hey bud I am happy to live in India, I'd rather live here than anywhere else in the world. Do you feel sorry that you live in canada or wherever? I don't think so, so don't run down a perfectly good country, which is far freer than the west. I am a journalist and I should know the kind of restrcitions that are there in the west, as compared to India. With regards to credit cards - I am talking of companies that tied up with VISA and Mastercard that are doing this, and GE manages the merchants-guess who's refused to co-operate? goog ole GE.

Oh, and thanks for you comments! -(giving you an icy stare)
