I was working in mumbai, bank's corporate office and HR is at mumbai. Now i setteled inJalgaon maharashtra so where can to file a case?
1. After your retirement your status with the Bank is that of a account holder/consumer.
2. You can file a comlaint case before the local District Consumer Dispute Redressal Commission against the said Bank alleging deficiency in service and unfair business practice claiming the said compensation from the Bank.
You can file the said complaint case at Jalgaon since the said Bank has a branch at that place also.
1) When you have take staff loan and later on it has been transferred as commercial loan, so at last bottom of that agreement one clause is mentioned of Jurisdiction. Check this Jurisdiction place where its mentioned.
1) bank cannot seek to attach your PF money
2) you can issue legal notice to bank that in spite of conversion of staff loans into commercial loans yet lien was marked on account wherein PF was deposited as result you were unable to clear your dues of credit card
3) claim compensation for mental torture undergone by you
4) file complaint against bank before consumer forum and claim compensation
As the bank is not replying to the legal notice,you should proceed to file a complaint against them in consumer court under the consumer protection act 1986 for deficiency of services and unfair trade practices adopted by the bank seeking compensation and litigation expenses for the illegal actions of the bank.
Your consumer complaint would be filed in Mumbai.
Case cannot be filed in Jalgaon has no cause of action has arisen there.
If you are confirmed that it was due to the bank's negligence that you had to suffer the said losses and there is no response from bank despite having given them a legal notice, you may go ahead of filing civil suit for damages or can approach consumer forum for relief and remedy including compensation for the mental stress.
