The bad attitude of some misdirected merchants have forced me to stop payment for any services with my credit or debit card. Initially they will assure you that you will be notified before billing, but they rarely get back to you and even if you complain, they wont pay back what they have collected. I think many more people are out there with the same attitude as myself......Dr Gopal more  
Jio people's auto debited my account twice repeated requests to reurn or to extend validity did not come out positivly. Business without honesty.how long Will it continues like that government must give directive to stop this more  
MSEB in Maharashtra charges extra if bills are paid by debit or credit card. When government is encouraging digital payment, why this government organisation has put this condition. IRCTC, once money is put into IRCTC wallet, the money cannot be transferred back to our account, why this restriction. Due to this an amount of Rs.5000 is stuck in IRCTC wallet. more  
When the receiver organisation uses PayTM / other wallet, the consumer loses the right to 'dispute'. This must be curbed, enabling consumer to 'dispute' a transaction - as i may chose to pay using my credit card. more
