If you're having no luck with the indian call centres then consider notifying your bank in writing, so they won't ring the alarm bells when you suddenly make a purchase half a world away from your home address. My bank suspended my card when I signed up at a new web hosting company, even though I've been making USD purchases for years (I'm in Australia). I received the letter notifying me of the suspension 10 days later!

In my case it was just annoying (and I was lucky that no automated charges were attempted whilst it was suspended), but if you're on the other side of the world and something like this happens it could be considerably more inconvenient for you.
