i will defnitely agree i see my friends cheated

i will agree they told that its free and not giving if we call them they ll say all cok and bull stories they also ask money for delivery charges so please help

The same happend with me my Story is narrated below.

Please be sure before entering any Sangeetha Mobile Shop.

I have purchased a 10, 200/- worth of mobile phone From MARATHALLI SANGEETHA MOBILE store in BANGALORE. They offered me 120% Cash Back offer. This offer is suppose to give me 12000/- worth of gift (though it is cash back but when I asked they are giving the gifts). They told me that you will get the gifts with in 2-4 weeks for this you have to confirm a mail sent by them. I asked SANGEETHA MOBILE when I did not received the gift after 4 weeks but they told me that you will receive the gift very soon. After Passing 5 weeks I again called them and then they asked me to call another phone number. When I called the given number (this is the number of company called MYGIFTJUNCTIOIN.COM). In reply they told me that “you have not sent the confirmation for receiving the gifts”. For confirmation I sent the scanned copy of acknowledgement Slip along with the mail to them. After receiving mail (Which I confirmed with them) the party (MYGIFTJUNCTIOIN.COM & QUANTUMCONCEPTS) assured me that I will receive the gift with in 2-4 week. When after 15 days I did not receive the gift after 15 days (till this time more then 1 & half month has passed). I called them back and asked for the gifts again, they were saying that they have not received the confirmation. Then I got a call from the person belongs to the gift delivering company named as MYGIFTJUNCTION.COM that I am sending the SMS please confirm by replaying to SMS. I shocked to know that they have asked for the Processing Charges of 3750/- for the Digital Camera for which they do not want to share the information regarding specification of the camera. When I was purchasing the mobile no body from the shop told me that this kind of processing charge will be taken which are more then the value of gift itself. I am feeling cheated with this whole episode.

I am surprised to see that big companies like SANGEETHA MOBILE are doing this kind of things to lure the customer. This kind of instances only maligns the image of the company only. In future I will never suggest any one to venture into SANGEETHA Mobile Shop.

I would like to take attention of the customer please do not go by this kind of offers.


Thanks

Hi Friends,

U guys r lucky atleast u got confirmation that u need to pay amount & u will get the gifts...hahahah.

I took mobile on 16/06 and filled the form till now i never get any confirmation and i visited the shop @ Forum mall after 4 weeks they gave me a no and asked to send sms reg bill no they will confirm the price. But i send sms twice and no response, when i tried to call that no it says all incomming calls r barred ( the no is [protected]) when i tried to reach the shop no given in the bill[protected] no one is picking.

What the hell is happening ... cant we take any action to avoid this kind of Fraud...

Iam also one of the victim of SANGEETHA MOBILE. At the time of purchase they said shipping charges will be around Rs100/- Now they are asking for Rs2000/-(appx), i have'nt seen such a big value for shipping charges that too all the products are local brand. These ppl are big time fraud.

This was also the case with me!! :( My story goes as below...

1. On 12/06/2008 I had purchased a SonyEricsson W580i handset from Sangeetha's, Jayanagar 4th Block.
2. The purchase price was Rs. 10, 400/-. And earned the money back of Rs. 12, 480/- (120% on the purchase value).
3. From the website of myfreegiftjunction.com I had chosen following 3 products :

A) Sony Digital Camera : 9, 990/-
B) Mixer (Kitchen Appliance) : 2, 000/-
C) Modifiable Lamp (Electronic Innovations) : 480/- (approx)

TAL ========> 12, 470/-

For the above said products, I agreed to bare the shipping, handling & delivery charges in my confirmation mail sent on Wed, Jul 2, 2008 at 11:08 AM. And got a confirmation mail from their end on Wed, Jul 2, 2008 at 12:24 PM. But for my surprise there was no clue of it, further more I received an sms on July 30th which red as follows:

" Greetings from SHOPPING JUNCTION. You have ordered for a Digital camera worth 9990. The redemption restriction is over and hence we are offering you a combination offer of DIGITAL CAMERA+ARSHEEL SLIM worth 6250+LIFE TIME EXCHANGE GUARANTEE worth 499 for the processing charge of only Rs. 3750. Please send confirmation sms on [protected] and your form numd. Thank you." .

Since I spoke to the customer care center at[protected] I learnt that due to non availability of stock, I will be getting the goods mentioned in the sms. But I had ordered my products on 13/06/2008, which is 13days short of 2 months for 29th July. Moreover, I had chosen the products which were displayed on their website.

What it shows is the kind of dirty buiness this FRAUD COMPANY SANGEETHA'S is into...!!
Let's get together & teach this company a lesson guy's. Else Co's., like Sangeeth's will take the public for a ride...

Regards,
Prasad JRN

Yes, I do agree...Even I too have expreinced the same thing. We should take serious action and teach them a good lesson

MR.ALI,

The concept of your 120% offer itself fully fraud. I was promised a sony digi cam when I shopped at Sangeetha. That statement is fully contradicted and an unbranded camera is given for a high processing charge.

Dear Friends,

Dont be fooled again to buy the unbranded and cheap chinese stuff from the Shopping Junction. U will definitely get a better product at a better price in genuine showrooms. Dont get cheated again friends...Please circulate this to maximum number of people and ensure that no customer should shop at Sangeetha show room in future again. They use the cheap marketing techniques to lure customers...Please dont fool yourself again by paying money to redeem the gits...the brands are totally cheap and useless.

I also definitley agree to this. I'm provoked to such a level that I feel like pelting stones on them. How easily they have fooled us. My friend took a Motorola w 270 handset and he is unhappy with the product and she has paid 1000/ RS for the shipping charge to redeem the DVD player. An unbranded DVD player is easily available in the market for 1000/- and this store picks them from Delhi grey market and make a huge profit even out of it.

Yes, be aware dont fall into the trap again by paying high amount of money to those unbranded products that they are going to redeem. There are definitely better showrooms that offer better prices than that of Sangeetha showroom. I've decided to file a case against them to the consumer court and teach the lesson to them.

Yes, be aware dont be fooled again to redeem the gift by paying high processing charge which is worth the worth more than the gift. My friend has got such a horrible MP3 player. Dont fall into this trap again...we should teach those rascals a nice lesson. Forward this to all your friends and we will take stringent action against them. They have made huge profits by offering 120 product value and again they are trying to make huge profits by redeeming gifts. Please do not redeem those old and useless gifts.

There was a lack of a positive atmosphere in the Sangeetha shop. I walked into the RT Nagar outlet and the customers were heavily out numbered by staff. I fail to understand why you need such a big force in a mobile shop!

Well, they may be providing employment to people who need them and I donÃ??t want to further dwell in this sensitive issue but I can say that these staff was just useless. It was actually a chaos and none seemed to be interested to take care of the needs of the customer. I wanted a particular model and color and it was not available in global access, they had a different colour and so I just walked into Sangeetha. First of all the price was quoted as 6250 where as the price in Global Access was 6100.

I did not have enough time and I wanted a particular colour of the set and so I decided to buy it Ã?? I asked whether they can show me the set but they said once I pay they will only show as they donÃ??t have a set which is already opened, I asked what happens if the set is defective, they said they will replace it if I find the defect at store but if I go home then I have to take to Nokia care! This calls for another review but some other day :)

So I agreed to purchase and gave my card, now the cashier (probably he is also the manager of the store) asked me for 2% extra, I was already pissed of with the store as it resembled more like a sabji mandi, so told him very clearly that I will not pay even 1 rupee extra as I am purchasing at the list price and I saw the VISA sign on the shop door and entered, then he started quarrelling with the person in local language who showed me the phone, ultimately he accepted and I paid 6250 only.

Now after the payment, there was confusion among the herd of people who will show me the set, then after again one round of quarrelling one person came up, he seemed to be not very conversant with opening the set and battery chamber but somehow managed, he was the only person who was polite to me but he was constantly venting his anger with other staff next to him. It was one of the most horrible shopping experience I had.

Now, the final episode Ã?? when I inquired about the price, I told the salesman that the model was Rs 150 cheaper in Global Access, then he told me that there is a 120% cash back offer! Now this is a completely misleading thing and I did understand what it is but it can be grossly misleading for many other consumers. I bought the phone because it is not manufactured by Sangeetha and I wanted a particular color which was not easily available, I would be the last person actually to buy a phone from this kind of people but it happened.

Now this cash back is actually accumulation of some kind of points which can be redeemed for some gift from an associate called shoppingjunction. They did show me a catalogue which had some cheap Chinese stuff like table lamp, external speakers from mobiles etc. I was not interested anyway with such stuff but the person told me that I can visit shopping junction website and see the complete list. So after puchase I asked for the shopping junction redemption form and then a girl gave me one and said that I have to get a copy of the invoice and then fill up the form and submit. They donÃ??t have a copier, nowadays a multifunction prnter costs less than 10, 000 and this is supposed to be a big mobile phone retail chain in Bangalore and this is their attitude. They had over 15 staffs doing nothing and if they donÃ??t have a copier they can atleast go and get a copy but you canÃ??t expect from this company.

This is the most unprofessional retail shop I have ever seen and I felt like buying the mobile from a sabji mandi, even if tyou buy a stuff from a flea market after lots of haggling you will have a better experience Ã?? believe me, so PLEASE DONÃ??T EVEN GO NEAR SANGEETHA.

By the way I checked out shopping junction website and it is another junk place with a lot many junk stuff which you cannot use, so they are probably fooling customers, it also has a catch that the customer can redeem the points but have to pay for the handling fees. Now I sent them a mail (it is already a week) about handling charges as oen should know before hand but no reply has come. So it is another fraud company and I can imagine why Sangeetha has tied up them as it suits their business practices very well.

By the way, the phone is working fine and although the purchase experience was horrible I am pleased with the phone. BUT ONE THING I WILL NEVER STEP INTO SANGEETHA AGAIN IN MY LIFE AND WILL ADVICE EVERYONB ELSE I COME ACROSS.

this is to all sangeeta employees. . . .
"I GOT MY GIFT TODAY (CAMCORDER). . THE MOMENT I OPENED THE BOX PEOPLE STARTED LAUGHING AT MY GIFT" . so i gifted that to beggar.

Cheting Public on the name of Assured Gift
Sangeetha mobiles is cheating public by advertising that they are giving an assured gift worth 120% of the cost of the mobile.

I have purchased a HTC mobile worth Rs.8, 100/- on Jun-2008. One of the executive has promised that there is an assured gift of worth Rs.9, 720/-(120% of the cost of Mobile which is digital camera).Its past more than a month and i happened to ping them for the same, to my astonishment they have sent me a mail that i need to pay further Rs.3, 750/- as charges in case i want the gift. The Digital camera of a branded company is worth 3500/- in the market at the max. Even after taking Rs 3, 750/- we are unsure that we would get a good worth of our money. The brand they are going to despatch in case i requrire the gift after paying the amount is unkown to the Market. (Digital camera). This is ridiculous on the part of a company which has a good reputation in the mobile sales market.Literally they are cheating public with the false promises. Please take stringent action against the errant mobile shop Sangeetha.

Guys, I visited sangeetha in forum on 22nd august 2008 to enquire about the assured gifts for 2 mobiles we puchased. They gave me an address and asked to go directly to that out let and collect the prize. I visited the place today and talked to the person incharge. I am supposed to get two 5mega pixel sony digital cameras. He asked me to pay Rs.2499+Tax which totals to Rs2812/-. The camera he showed was one of the most basic cameras in the world. It has no auto focus, no clarity and no features. He claimed that the company is a world class company, but when I asked him to prove it by showing me the websites of that company suddenly his whole way talk changed. He just started telling "if your think like that then I can't help you. If you don't like the camera pick another gift." and also he added that "sangeetha is the company that told you thay will give banded cameras not us." These guys are playing well with us. Both the shopkeepers and the prize distributers are thinking that if they manage to continue this drama for some more time people will get fedup and stop troubling them.

We need to do something.
