Received a CALL from "100bestbuy.com's" CCE executive ARJUN singh regarding a CONTEST / DEAL, when I asked him to mark a mail with the details he had sent the same as mentioned below. {the complete mail with specification is attached }
" Congratulations!
You are one of the lucky customer of the day and selected for Best Deal Of the day. In which you will Pay just Rs 4999/- and will get
1) VOX 7 Inch Tablet Capacitive Touch (V-91) which is having configuration like :
2) And a free gift of Reebok watch worth Rs3800/-
3) 20% discount on Samsung Galaxy i.e. if you will buy Samsung Galaxy from our website then you are getting 20% lower price than market
4) 100% cash back credit points in your 100bestbuy account.
5) If you want to put contest then put it as contest and then you will get a chance to win if your name will be selected in our contest draw.
Following this mail and on the basis of assurance given by the CCE as well as on the basis of my personal experience of online shopping I went ahead and accepted the deal. I wanted to make the payment through Credit card, the CCE said that CREDIT CARD payment has to be made via "STYLEHO.com" and confirmed that both "STYLEHO.COM' & 100best buy.com" are n the same. I made the payment and I received a confirmation mail of the ORDER from STYLEHO.com too. I awaited for the product for more than 10 days time.
I was informed that I will receive the product in next 7 days. But since I dint receive it, I had to call & mail their customer care for the details. After a month of follow up they gave me Tracking number of FedEx saying they had dispatched the product on 03-07-13. Simultaneously I had submitted my compliant in "www.consumercomplaints.com". It was after submitting this complaint that I started getting replies for my mails and received call from their side. (else it was me calling them n number of times and end-up listening to their CHARGEABLE recorded VOICE.
On Following-up with Fedex I came to know that the Tracking number doesn't belongs to their service. Had to write back to Styleho team and then came a mail from them saying that the tracking number was of "INDIA ON TIME" courier services. And as per their receipt the product was dispatched on 05-08-13 only. 06-08-13 passed. and on 07-08-13 when checked it on their (IOT's) website the remarks were product undelivered and the reason given was Address incomplete. MY NUMBER WAS VERY MUCH PRINTED IN the PACKAGE with the address and only the street name was missing though had given the entire address while making the ORDER. SOMEHOW TRACED THE CONTACT Numbers OF IOT ( Navi Mumbai) and retrieved my PACKAGE.
I thought Finally ALL IS WELL now and can RELAX but when I opened the PACKAGE it was more SHOCKING to know that I have been CHEATED.
*********************************************
THE PRODUCT IS NOT AS PER THE SPECIFICATION AND THERE WAS NO " Stereo Earphone and Protective Pouch," IN IT.
2) And a free gift of Reebok watch worth Rs3800/-...THIS WAS NOT THERE IN THE PACKAGE ??

Yet how many days will you require to give me JUST an Tracking number ??? I have already given you 1 months time to track the details of MY PRODUCT purchased, but I dint get any response. NOW I am asking for the tracking NUMBER so that I can HELP MYSELF as you people are not bothered to help your customers. Do you need 2 more months to JUST give me a 10 or 12 digit number from your RECORD / DATABASE.

Dear Team,
Provide me with the Tracking number of FEDEX for the product dispatched. I will try to track it from my end If your team cant track it for your customer.༯div>
Even now you people have not given me a clear solutions for my problem. You could have given me the tracking number Or you could have called up FEDEX and got the status of the product.༯div>
Your website claims in FAQ that product will reach by 10 to 12 days and I started to mark mail & call you people from the the 11th day that I have not received the product. It will be exactly 1 month[protected] to[protected] tomorrow since I paid for the product. AND YOU PEOPLE VERY COOLLY REPLY THAT "we have already dispatched your order on 3-7-2013 through FEDEX courier service." SO YOU MEAN TO SAY YOUR JOB ENDS ONCE YOU HAVE GIVEN THE PRODUCT TO FEDEX..YOU PEOPLE ARE NOT BOTHERED IF YOUR CUSTOMER HAS RECEIVED THE PRODUCT OR NOT AND YOU PEOPLE SIMPLY IGNORE ALL THE CALLS & MAILS THAT THE CUSTOMER MARKS YOU.
PLEASE PROVIDE THE FEDEX TRACKING / REFERENCE NUMBER....
