Getting a loan should be an empowering experience, a step towards achieving your financial goals. However, for many women borrowers in India, the stress of debt can be compounded by inappropriate or aggressive behavior from loan recovery agents.
At Settle Loan, we believe that financial challenges should never lead to harassment or a compromise of your dignity. That’s why we are proud to offer a dedicated Anti-Harassment Service (AHS), specifically designed to protect our women borrowers and ensure your right to respectful debt resolution.
You Deserve Dignity, Always.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has very clear, strict guidelines on how lenders and their recovery agents must interact with borrowers. Importantly, these guidelines offer special protection for women borrowers:
- Respectful Communication: Recovery agents are mandated to maintain decorum and treat borrowers with respect and dignity. The use of abusive, threatening, or intimidating language is strictly prohibited.
- Time Restrictions: Contact can only be made during reasonable hours, typically between 8:00 AM and 7:00 PM on working days. Any calls outside this window are a violation.
- Safety Measures: In some cases, RBI guidelines specify that for female borrowers, interactions should be handled by female recovery agents and occur within specified timeframes to ensure a safe and professional environment.
Harassment is not just unethical—it is unlawful. If you are experiencing repeated calls at odd hours, threats, public shaming, or any form of disrespectful behavior, you have the right to put a stop to it.
How Settle Loan’s Anti-Harassment Service (AHS) Works for You
Our Anti-Harassment Service is a core component of our commitment to debt relief with dignity. We act as a powerful buffer between you and recovery agents, ensuring all communications are professional, compliant, and focused on resolution.
Here is how Settle Loan protects your peace of mind:
- Unique Contact Shield: When you enroll in our AHS, we can provide a mechanism (like a unique call-forwarding number or formal communication channel) that directs all recovery agent communication to our expert team. This immediately shields you from direct harassment.
- Expert Intervention: Our legal and resolution experts manage all contact. If a recovery agent violates RBI guidelines, our team immediately intervenes, formally documents the misconduct, and initiates the necessary legal and regulatory action to stop the harassment instantly.
- Documentation and Compliance: We meticulously record all interactions, building an official record that can be used to file complaints with the bank’s grievance cell, the RBI Ombudsman, or the police, if necessary.
- Parallel Debt Resolution: While we stop the harassment, our primary focus remains on debt relief. We work simultaneously to negotiate a fair Settle Loan arrangement—such as an affordable One-Time Settlement (OTS) or a restructuring plan—that gets you closer to becoming debt-free.
