Hace 5 años, con los fondos que tenia en Maxima AFJP, adquiri una renta vitalicia previsional de u$s 813,25 mensuales a HSBC-NEW YORK LIFE. Esta empresa haciendo una interpretacion malintencionada, ilógica, ilegal y antojadiza, sin el minimo de asidero lógico, y contraria a todos los argumentos de venta que esa empresa pregonaba, decidio unilateralmente, abonarme solo la cantidad de u$s 451,81. Obviamente realice una innumerable cantidad de reclamos sin ningun resultado. Incluso ante la Superintendencia de Seguros de la Nacion, quienes me informaron que debia accionar judicialmente. Realice entonces el correspondiente Juicio, con resultados totalmente favorables a mi reclamo. La justicia fallo a favor mio, dandome la razón. Pero la empresa infractora apeló practicamente sin justificacion y perdió nuevamente, quedando asi el fallo firme. La justicia en instancia final falló a favor de que se me pagara lo que correspondía. Aún asi, la empresa riendose de nuestra justicia da a largas al asunto y no cumple el fallo de la misma.Esto mismo que me acontece, le sucede tambien a otros que han puesto sus ahorros en HSBC-NEW YORK LIFE. Además de esta actitud, a contramano de todos su argumentos de venta, jamás ha actualizado estos importes como lo prometía en innumerables tablitas que repartía para que nos decidieramos por ellos. Calculo que algún día recibire lo que por justicia me corresponde. Pero entiendo que es necesario hacer conocer esta circunstancia y cooperar con otros que puedan estar pasando por una circunstancia similar por haber elegido tan mal como yo a HSBC-NEW YORK LIFE, sea en mi pais, como en algun otro.
Aca les dejo mis datos y pongo a vuestra disposicion cualquier copia de todo lo expuesto.
Afectuosisimo.
