Subject: Close my card and remove my account.
Dear Sir,
As I am retired from my job and now unable to use and pay huge payments any more. So it is my earnest to close down and remove my credit card from your bank. Rs. 4, 834/- is the last amount I going to pay in a day or two and no further payments will be possible for me as a retired man.
I, once again request to remove and close my credit card account.
I feel regret to close my account but conditions of a retired man do not permit to continue.
Thanking you in anticipation.

Sir, look at this irresponsible attitude of Faisal Ghulamani. How irresponsibly he inform me that " we are unable to reverse these charges. Keeping in view the above mails(which was several times forward to Faisal Ghulamani), it is an absolute, total irresponsible behavior of him. Now I am retired how could I pay the huge amount. Kindly look at this matter and help me settle this matter. I not in a position to pay any amount.
Keep in view the entire matter, I hope you are kindly settling this matter and relief me from the pain I am in.
