Spotting the Red Flags of Bank Harassment
Before we dive into how to fight back, let’s identify the common red flags of unethical recovery practices that constitute harassment:
- Calls/Visits Outside Permitted Hours (7 AM – 7 PM): Any contact before 7 AM or after 7 PM is a violation of RBI guidelines and considered harassment.
- Abusive or Threatening Language: The use of foul language, intimidation, threats of violence, or personal harm is strictly prohibited and illegal.
- Public Shaming Tactics: Disclosure of your debt details to friends, family, neighbors, or employers, or public humiliation in any form, is a severe violation of privacy and ethical norms.
- Misleading Identity: Recovery agents failing to identify themselves, misrepresenting themselves as police or government officials, or operating without proper authorization from the bank.
- Repeated, Excessive Contact: Frequent, relentless calls or visits that go beyond reasonable attempts to contact and become a nuisance.
- Physical or Verbal Assault: Any form of physical aggression or verbal abuse during interactions.
- Demanding Unreasonable Payments: Pressuring you to pay amounts not accurately reflecting your outstanding debt or unauthorized charges.
- Visiting You at Your Workplace Without Prior Consent: Unless specifically agreed upon, agents should not be visiting you at your place of employment.
