India Today Book Club — Non refund of money against cancelled order no:[protected].

Will you refund my money against the cancelled order:[protected]??

Complain No: 243244 .

I am here again for getting the justice.
It's a strange to me.

More than one month is over but still you did not receive refused parcel.

If you don't receive the parcel it's not my fault, as because I am not responsible of that part. That's your business with courier.

Clarify the matter with the courier, one and half month is already over. I think there is some problem with the courier. It's you duty to check it, as because I have cancelled the order.

I need my money back.

Thanks,
Angshuman

RE: Urgent!!!! . Cancel order- ID:[protected] ...Fraud with meLink











Dear Sir,

I got your point.
But as I am not interested for that product and already made the complain instantly to cancel the order then how that was dispatched.
Are you compelled me to get it? (!).
Certainly I will not receive the product, but how long my money will be involved in your business without giving me any interest rather making me worried.
Please credit the money to my creditcard account which you got from my CITY bank creditcard so that I can not blame me to become a member of ITBC.

If my order (ID:[protected] is not cancelled I will go to consumer forum,human rights and also to the higher authority.

Thanks,

Dear Sir,

I am absolutely surprised that I was made that transaction (forcefully done by your customer care representative) on 28th Nov'09 and logged my complain on the same day by phone and email both. After that I got in touch with you everyday by phone and email both regarding the same matter.

How the order was dispatched before getting punched ??? (marked green in may mail dated 28-Nov-09).

Though today your customercare representative informed me that the order is cancelled: my complain no is 243244.
Order no[protected] should be cancelled and the money will be refunded to my corresponding credit card account

If my order (ID:[protected] is not cancelled I will go to consumer forum, human rights and also higher authority.

Dear Sir,

As I was asked by your customer care representative to call you again on 30th Nov'09 regarding the cancellation of my order (ID:[protected], I tried to get you at [protected] and just now (10. 40 AM) I get in touch with one of your customer care representative named Ms/Mrs Priya Srivastava over phone and she informed me that my order ID:[protected] is already cancelled and I will get the refund in my credit-card account within 2-3 wks.

She also mentioned that order no M-COMMERCE/0GA[protected] is already dispatched and will be arrived to me shortly.

If so, I am very happy with your customer-care service, but still I need the confirmation through email, regarding the same matter.


Thanks for your cooperation.

Urgent!!!! . Cancell order- ID:[protected] ...Fraud with meLink














Dear Sir,

I am Angshuman Ghosh, working as a scientist in chembiotek (TCGLS company) involved in innovative research. As we don't have enough time to go for shopping we usually do it via internet.
This is the first time I faced such fraud from your company.

Let me come to the details.

I attempted to get reebok fitness kit from your Indiatodaybookclub on 24th Nov'09.
1. At First, I tried to place my order in the following address ( My residential address):

Angshuman Ghosh,
Bhawani Complex, Block-Q, Flat-1A,
Krishnapur, Kolkata-102.
Mob NO: [protected]

The transaction was unsuccessful and there was no debit from my CITY BANK CARD ACCOUNT.

2. Then, I tried second times with my office address as mentioned below.

Chembiotek research,
Block BN, Sec-V, Salt lake, Kolkata-91.
Mob No: [protected].

The transaction was successful and there was a debit of Rs. 2298 from my same CITY BANK CARD ACCOUNT.

Today (28th Nov'09) I got a phone call from your indiatoday bookclub ([protected]), A lady named Miss/ Mrs Ritu informed me that there was some problem with the internet so the amount Rs-2298/ was not debited from my credit card and I have to go through a procedure by my mobile phone so that the amount can be debited from my account and then the order will be done.

I repeatedly asked that lady that my order is confirmed and I got an email from the concerned department regarding the confirmation. So I don't want to go for further any transaction from my credit card as because she might be wrong and there might be same transaction twice for the same product.
But the lady confirmed me that there was no transaction for my name with indiatoday book club and she again confirmed that no order is there with my mobile no also.
More over If I pay twice for the two same order that and if I make complain one order will be cancelled and the amount will be refunded to my concerned creditcard.
I went through the transaction and asked her name. The lady asked her colleague that whether she will say her name or not...this make the doubt to me regarding the transaction..and the lady just said her nickname Ritu (or false !!) and the order no ID:[protected]!!!! and dropped the phone.
I think its not a hard task to you to identify the lady who made the transaction.

I called to citibank customer care and they confirmed me that both the transaction are valid with the same amount Rs.2298/. That means the last transaction was carried out by me, giving me a wrong information, to promote sales.

Instantly I called back to Indiatoday book club at [protected] and they informed me to give the complain at another no: [protected]. I called to that no ([protected]), Mr. Indrajit Sen was there and he listened my problem, and asked to hold the phone for a moment and after that he informed me that today's order yet not punched so make a complain via mail to [protected]@indiatodaybookclub.com. Now I am doing it so.

As today was holiday I was in my home and the trailing mail was in my office login so I come to office to get the details and to mail you.

I would like to request you to cancel the today's order and make refund the amount to my citibank credit card.

And also take necessary action so that this type of fraud again can not be done by your employees. As this type of online shopping is done based on customer caring service, such type of incident will loose your goodwill and ofcourse will loose your customers.

Thanks and regards,

Angshuman Ghosh
