ICICI bank and HDFC bank top in flouting norms.
RBI has issued clear instructions that agents can not call a person multiple number of times in a day, can not be rude, coercive, threatening.
Even if your grandfather has in reality provided guarantee bank and its agents can not call your father, you leave apart
your friends relatives. Ask all of your relatives to record calls and be your witness.
By now bank would have reported your grandfather as defaulter in credit rating companies e.g. CIBIL. Demand copy of the CIBIL report from bank and certified copy of the communication by email/letter whihc bank has sent to CIBIL to include your grandftaher in list of defaulters.

ICICI bank has posted on its website:
If a customer's family member has defaulted, will it affect the customer's status in CIBIL's records?
|
The CIBIL report has information of loan/credit details of the borrower only. Therefore, for a retail customer, it would not matter if someone in his/her family has defaulted. If the customer's repayment track record is okay, his/her credit score will not be affected by that of his/her family members.
|
Bank should not disturb the family members.
