I went to their Fairly place office(near B.B.D Bag) to appear for the scheduled interview round and then the career Councillor(a complete duffer) told me to get registered with them with a sum of Rs. 400/- and assure that they will send job to me. Then they said that "if I got job through them i have to pay them 1 months salary in two installments" and that duffer asks me to fill up a form & write those statements on the back side of it.
Since one year have been passed away, no jobs have been provided by them and guys believe me they don't have the minimum formalities to call a candidate. They are totally fake & fraud company.They see freshers like money. So, I request you that don't waste your money.

Strange to see So many Consultancies charging Upfront.

Please, NEVER PAY ANYTHING UPFRONT.

Like Ameyaa HR, doesn't charge anything Upfront.Not a single penny.

ON THE SAME DAY . at 7:58 p.m. I SENT A REPLY :

Dear Ma'am,

Thank you for your response .
It would be good if you provided your phone no. so that I can make a call prior to coming to your office .

Thank you '

BUT I DID NOT RECEIVE REPLY FROM THEIR SIDE WITH THE CONTACT/PHONE NO.
hi friends,
just today i hv got a call from ACK group, a lady sushmita called me and asked me to go tomorrow to the Chandni chowk office, kol 72 for interview as my cv has been selected. I just dcided to check details of the company and have found the above posts.
Thank you friends, I have been thinking to go for intrview, bt now knowing that it's a fake company i will never go there and can warn others too. Thanks for saving my money and time.
Ack Group charged Rs 2000/- for recruiting me in a ngo job. I gave only Rs 300/- but it records balance Rs1980/- on 7th April 2015. I don't know whether it's demand is right or wrong. Can I gain or loss after due payment?
Let have a joint police case for this frauds. They cant play with some ones career. All those who have suffered should visit jointly.

Infact i am also cheated with Rs.2500/- recently in July 2015.
Please all of you whor are fresher, please don't pay money even a one rupee in any consultancy, if they ask money then they are fake, ACK one of them
Thanks for the feedback. I went there this week and they asked me for Rs. 6500/- saying pretty-much the same things mentioned here by you all. Thank God and thanks to you all again for saving my hard-earned money. Like someone said, let's file a joint complaint to refund the taken money. Post a reply to this if you want to group up and initiate action againt this company.

This is the mail which I have got from the company named job Konnect.Previosely I have got the mail mentioning the same address and company named ack infrastructure service pvt ltd.So, Guys who get similar mail from this company as me will face some familiar type of experience.Like first they ask you to sign your name and give ph number.Then they call you for a interview in which they first demand money for registration and then processing cv for some reputed company like samsung, LG, Bandhan bank, HDFC which one you prefer and you can also choose your profile to work in those company as per your choice.(So, funny just think how easy to get a job in this tough job market by jusy paying money to them although I enjoyed the scene finding out that how fullish way this people have chosen out to cheat the frustrated job seeker and earn money from them).Two time I have visited the place and met with two people first time ms piyali banerjee and second time ms sulagna das.Both time face the same scene. And the last time the lady sulagna das insisted me on for registration in such a way that seemeed to me nothing but but as begging.But both time I left the place without paying a single paisa.
So, my advice to all jobseekers please don't pray fall in such trap.After getting money they will not provide a single interview call one of my friend have faced the similar experience.If you want to find some source of entertainment then just visit the place.
I have also faced similar experience two times.
guys the same thing hppnd to me.
i visited their office at No2 Chandni chowk street, 4th floor, kolkata-700072.A lady namely Tandra Dasgupta took my interview ( actualy insist me to give the money Rs - 1685/- for six months )and promised for 100% job guarantee Then they insisted me by saying that your cv is short listed by 2 big corporate houses, If you pay the amount then we will send you to a company day after tomorrow for interview in December 2014.Till they unable to provide a single interview in a small company.When I call and ask For the Lady Tandra Dasgupta.. Sha(Tandra) say that she is not in office.The I go their office two time but The lady does not face me.Another person say that She is busy(actually same work) and no need to come when the interview arrenge then U will be called by fon and it will be within a week.The ACK group as well as al the employee are fake and frod.Please don't go and weast your money.Government shoud close this type of consaltency so that they never cheat with anybody...
Dear Sir

I got a SMS on 13.11.15 from '050224' stating -

: cv selected for interview. come 2, chandi chowk, gypsi Reataurant 4th flr, Chadni Metro, nr sabir hotel 10-5 pm sent via shine.com"

When searched on shine.com, it was send from ACK consultancy.

Pl confirm
Dear all prospective job seekers,

Please be aware that ACK group is 100% cheater & no guarantee about jobs, howsoever sweet and lucrative they may speak to you. If you believe them about getting jobs by their sweet words, be sure to be duped. And based on my experience with ACK Group I must alert all prospective job seekers that no wonder it may happen by other such fake Organizations also.

In fact no organization should ask any money before providing any job or any services . Reputed & authentic companies never ask you money before hand. So don't give money in advance to any body with hope that your money will get you a job or any real service . If they ask for money in advance rather try to make an agreement that any charges can be given only after completion of at least three (3) months in any new job after joining through any Placement Service Organization. Also try to seek help from Consumer Forum if you feel that you are cheated.

There are some companies they don't charge for registering names or may be very nominal charges, may be 50/- or 100/-, try to find them. Also make your genuine effort on your own for seeking jobs. You will definitely get interview calls. And if you can train yourself about how to succeed in interview then no one can stop you from getting job.
Hi, All

Kindly take a look here
Here is another one

One more story

with your money receipt please complain at consumer forum online. Also do immediately FIR to nearby police station. We help to grow corruption. Stop corruption right now. atleast you may save an innocent job seeker being cheated. only burning candle or put comments in internet will not help society. Do it for a noble reason and self satisfaction. God may bless you all.
Guys dz ack is a fraud company. ...like if any company gives u assurance abt a job comsider it as fake...i went there for an interview and they told me to pay 3500 as a registration fees...i didn't pay n i tld them i wil not pay a single penny arrange myinterview find me a job n i will give u 5000 instead of 3500...they were trying to trick me...but gor tricked by me only...they forced me 2 pay 1500 atlst...but i didn't...there are consultancy which do charge remember they are fraud...and those who don't go for them only...for those whose money had been cheated...i[censored] have a receipt of the payment file a case in the consumer court or make a fir against that company...and refund ur hard earned money. ..

Hello what u have done after this
After receiving ACK's interview call vide their email dated 06/02/2016 mentioning that they got my contact through TImesJobs.com, I went for the interview on 08/02/2016 around 12 noon and had a detail discussion with Mr. S Chakraborty who promised lot of opportunities and said offer for suitable jobs will be sent via emails within a week. I was also advised by Mr. Chakraborty to complete the registration by paying Rs.11, 450 which I did.
Till date (18/07/2016) no communication was received from ACK in-spite of vigorous followups and Mr. Chakraborty is not available either on their land lines or his mobile... he is totally untraceable and vanished.
ACK is absolutely fraud and cheat. Now I am proceeding to a legal action against ACK and have already reported the matter to Police.
All the aspirant job seeker, please be very careful in dealing with such a cheating comany.
