India Today Book Club — Refuse to accept the courier and replacement

Respected forum,

I have received a free gift offer from India Today book club. As per the offer I placed the order (order no M-COMMERCE/0GA[protected] Order Date is 14-NOV-09) and paid Rs. 629 against handling charges. I placed the order for Benetton Sunglass. However, the company has sent a watch on 4/12/2009.

I immediately sent a mail to the company in this regard. They asked me to send the parcel back for replacement. After their confirmation, I have sent the parcel back by courier To PAY basis. Courier delivery was attempted on 19/12/2009. The company refused to accept the courier and denied replacement.

First thing is, the company has sent wrong item. Second is after written (Mail) they refused to accept the parcel and hence denied item replacement. I already lost Rs. 629 and the courier charges. Either they should provide replacement and courier refund or entire money ( Rs. 629 + courier charges) + Rs 5000 as compensation for humiliation and wrong commitments.

With regards,
mahadesh R

India Today Book Club, New Delhi — Defective shirts sent by courier and refusal to replace/refund of money

I am a member of India Today Book Club (ITBC), which I assume is a marketing organisation promoted by India Today group to sell consumer items to consumers termed as members.
ITBC send you sms messages day in and day out offerring a range of consumer articles: shoes, sun-glasses, shrits, books, CDs etc. etc.
I responded to one of their sms some time in January 2010 and placed an order for a white shirt which was delivered to me some time in February. On opening the parcel I realised that the shirt was on a thin fabrik and not fit for wearing in winters. I decided to wear it in April 1st weak. As the shirt was a bit soiled/ dirty due to pinned packaging, I gave it a light wash and ironed it. to my surprise, it showed a number of air-bubbles on the collar. The fusing or pasting of the collar with the inner lining was extremely poor and the bubbles were so prominantly visible that one could not wear the shirt.
I wrote to ITBC on 9th of April and got the reply that since I had worn the shirt, it can not be replaced. I wrote back how did they assume I wore it, it was lying absolutely unused. To this they replied that it has become an old matter and they can not do any thing. The help line numbers politely refuse to address the main concern: replacing the poor quality shirt or refunding the money. Though the shirt can easily be returned to their vendor for the obvious manufacturing defects, ITBC is shrking responsibility and I have been taken for a ride. I am stuck with the defective shirt. Can I go to consumer forum???
