This time they sent mail via Advocate
Any Advocate here can help us with this
Even after RBI Notice https://rbi.org.in//Scripts/BS_PressReleaseDisp... Talkcharge should refund us money, but instead of refunding, they are still asking money and threating us
Now they are saying to refund our money because we used our service for business purposes, but many people have used their wallets for themselves or for friends
In the first legal notice, they said to give our money back to combile with RBI and after RBI issued notice, they gave now this reason
Laxmi Cheat Fund is now available in talkchorge app
For money extortion, First talkchorge used RBI false notice & now even mentioned Supreme Court of India in fake notice. Scam at its peak. No mainstream news is even convering this fraud. Lol.

We all know they are big frauds, but what should our next steps be?
Individually, we cannot do anything but unitedly, we can make him go to jail. We just need support of each other when we need
Many people here or in our circles know big people We should report this and make everyone talk about it
Even some Advocates can fight for us
Our goal is not just get money but also put him behind bars so that we can set example
Lol, they ain't gonna do shit. The legal cost for fighting in a court will be more than the amount of the cashback they are thinking to recover from each user.
This is fun entertainment given by Talkcharge to get itself delay bankruptcy
Nice watch xD lets see how they are gonna try their tricks xDDD we should learn from them TO BE SAFE from these MACLICIOUS tricks to extort money
Notice validity can be checked online whether its fake or not ... Since there is no refrence number in this notice its 100 percent fake , ignore it
They have no legal ground to ask for money back as per my knowledge.
1) They have to prove that we have used their services for business and commercial use.
2) They have used the previous letters copy as reminder but those are null and void as in those they asked for money on behalf of RBI.
3) Which company will send legal notice costing Rs 55,000 to claim back their amount less than Rs 55,000? It doesn't make sense at all.
4) We also have a right to file a case against Talkcharge as they kept their users/customers in dark of not telling that don't have a wallet license from RBI.
Just completely ignore this and let RBI handle this, just 1 thing that the money in our talkcharge wallet is supposedly gone case.
At least a legal notice should carry an act or section number which is not there so that's a fake notice, we need to look for an actual legal public notice to be sent to this company to get our money recovered and put them behind bars
1. Where are those old terms & conditions (unedited), do they mention clearly that its for personal use only?
2. How does talkcharge know usage was business usage? Do they have proof of the same?
Just transaction history with multiple numbers is not enough. Business use can be defined only if user generated reasonable profits, which can be proven from users bank accounts only I think.
3. A legal notice from a lawyer is more like a 'dhamki' in a legal way. An actual case may or may not be filed later. Notice from lawyer only means an intimation.
4. In my opinion, do NOT reply anything to these notices without consulting your own lawyer. If you have not used the talkcharge balance in ways they're claiming or ways which can be treated as business, you may send a counter notice.
btw, did you get any attachment with the email with any documentation clarifying which transaction were business transaction in nature etc? If not, and if you plan to send a counter notice, mention that they've failed to provide you with all the documentation that you'd need like transaction history, access to your account on website and the data they have about you. All needs to be disclosed.
But do note that although its not mandatory to respond to these notices, sometimes courts accept this argument that you have shown uncooperative behavior by not responding to the legal notice sent to you. But proper responses by your lawyer can handle that too, like you chose not to reply as you did not want to engage in any communication with a known offender which was already flouting RBI rules as well as Payment and Settlement Systems Act, 2007. The offender also previously lied to users creating an impression about RBI asking money back, this was mentioned by RBI itself.

But remember, everything is dependent on your usage. If they're able to convince that you recharged or paid bills for 20-30 unique numbers, it maybe seen as not personal use as people do not have these many numbers in their family.
Hardly 7 - 8 people but numbers are different because of various things like electricity, mobile , dth
Any forum to get them spoiled ?
First for doing fraud 2nd for harassment
Why can't we take the help of RBI, do you have any email id, I have already reported to consumer forum and cyber fraud cell
Do we fill that google form of KYC and bank details?
Is there any possibility to get police in our address for this kind of cases or registration of cases in court which may toruble our carrier ?
I have also received a mail from the fraud company not I am in complete distress. For an individual it's almost impossible to get an advice from a law firm to reply these kind of legal notices fighting against these kind of giant is impossible.
I am not encouraging users to exploit talkcharge but let me enlighten them about few legal aspects within my limited knowledge.
1) to pursue any legal action of criminal remedy, the onus is upon the prosecution or the complainant to prove their case so the million dollar question is how they can prove their contention that the user used it for commercial not at all for personal purpose unless and until the exploitation was done by that user in large scale.
2) Even for suppose, 10% of the users exploited in large scale, the complainant will focus mostly on those 10% only so rest of the 90% users will be safe as the complainant doesn't desire to waste much resources towards legal expenses just for paltry recoveries.
3) Regarding that huge exploiters too, as the cash back given is not in single one instance and it's done in multiple instances over a period of time, so one critical cross question the complainant has to answer to the court is that why such long period they are entertaining this exploitation and only after RBI took some action regarding some other policy aspect they suddenly woke up and falling after the users? so the complainant company themselves are the cause by their sheer negligence because had they been vigilant at the first instance itself the exploitation issue would have ended then and there itself and it certainly not reached to this large scale. Hence, for their own act of long long complacency they can't suddenly woke up now and coerce recovery proceedings against the users.
4) The last but not the least point is, pursuing case against one or two users is easy but more the users, the more complicated and tedious the proceedings will be to the complainant because of the tactics employed by the lawyers of the multi-party-opposition. It will surely leads to the settlement.
What was the loot? I don’t remember any major loot

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has once again directed payments platform TalkCharge Technologies to cease operation and issuance of its prepaid payment instruments (PPIs) and refund the remaining amount lying in these wallets to customers.
Earlier this month, the central bank cracked down on the company for offering PPIs on its website and app without obtaining the requisite certificate of authorisation. The platform has been directed to refund the balances in these customer wallets by May 17.
However, in a clarification issued on Thursday (April 25), the RBI said that the fintech platform had issued a legal notice to its customers and demanded repayment of the cashback amount.
The legal notice also purportedly warned that those not returning the cashback payments would be reported to the RBI. However, the central bank rebuked the claims and said that it only issued directions for refunding the amount lying in the wallets to customers.
“… the entity has created an impression in the minds of its customers that demand for repayment of cashback amount is being made as per the directions of the RBI. It is clarified that the RBI has only directed the entity (TalkCharge.) to refund the prepaid amount lying in the wallets, to the customers,” added the RBI.
They can't do sh!t, i was in similar soup against zerodha and mcx. They forgot to square off my overnight position when my margin got hit. And then asked me pay for the total amount. They will try to send notices, i send back my counter argument. Coz they don't have legality to fight the case. I was even summoned to online court during covid,but guess what, mama Kitna legal hai ki judge also be able to give proper decision. In all this, they will take the loss and move on
Share more information of about your case
It will helpful for many
Those who have affordable cashback amount just return them why get into the trouble. Later fight that issue if you want fight.

Jab scam karna toh khuch bhi kar sakte hai
Only haryana court jurisdiction is there ....than how advocate supreme court of india can send legal notice
TALKCHARGE company went bankrupt, they don't even have money to pay the rent for their office.
Any one given reply to notice or all are ignoring?
Look at the email address through which this email is sent - [email protected]
It's another fake notice by them to scare users into paying for their frivolous lifestyles
Legal notices are sent by law firms, not by company noreply email account.
Can be safely ignored IMHO
Legal notice can send from client mail also but the fraud used noreply mail
Good advantage for us in future
Talk charge is totally harrasment to customer so pl check as soon as possible
What happen now?
For money extortion, First talkchorge used RBI false notice & now even mentioned Supreme Court of India in fake notice. Scam at its peak. No mainstream news is even convering this fraud. Lol.
