Bata India Complaints & Reviews

I’ve been a regular customer of Bata for the past so many years, infact right from my school days (I’m 42 now). This sandal which I got along with another pair, has really hurt my daughter’s feet so badly that it was swollen the next and unable to go to school. On check with the doc. he said the footwear is the reason for this. Its brand new that we had to wear for a wedding the previous day. Now that no one can use it only. WE’ve never ever faced such a problem with the products of Bata. Its really worth the money and we are always comfortable. But this time, it was so unusual that I also request that this particular pattern is not comfortable for many of the customers with whom I;ve checked.

I humbly request to consider my mail and advice your outlet in Arya Gowda Road, West Mambala, Chennai 600033, Tamil Nadu, to exchange this piece as it is just lying with me un-used.

Trust you consider my request favourably. Awaiting a positive reply from you.

Recently when i went to bata showroom udupi (ADDRESS-Priyadarshini Arcade, Near Bus Stand ,Udupi,Karnataka ) i din't find my size casual power shoes so when i was about to leave the shop, one of the bata shops men yelled at me for not buying a shoe when i told him that i was a prompt customer to his shop and he cannot speak like that with a customer , he even told me to throw my previously purchased shoes, so my query is do you really handle customer care issue of this sort because when i enquired with others they told me that this has happened with them as well.

so my query is do a consumer has any way to express himself in cases like this.

I bought hand bag from bata in Aug for 1500 and the handles started breaking and i got it replaced and new hand bag quality was the same and handles got breaking. just with in ten days.

i dont want to go for any more exchange as confirmed by customer care. i need my money to be refunded. how many time should i visit the store and every time they give bad product.

More over they say that for exchange u need to come before 5:00- pm and should not come during week ends also. this is the only one way of harassing the customer. How can we every time leave our work and go for exchange. they say that store manage will be available only till five but fact is he will be at store only till 9:00 pm.

When we can go for purchase any time shop is open then why cant they do the replacement any time customer comes. its not the fault of customer bata is giving bad products over all.

I Request all the People not to buy any more product form bata.

Please help me.


i have also purchase sandals, shoes, slippers every thing quality was bad

I had recently purchased an All season shoe from Bata Shop in R-Mall, Mulund West, Mumbai with the Article Number [protected] No. 8 . After a week of purchase there was some stitching defect for which I had given it back to the shop. He asked me to collect it after one week because it will be sent to the company for repair. I received the shoes after a week, but on using the shoes further the complete shoe got worned out and beyond repair. Inspite of being all season shoe and till date there has been hardly any rain my shoes were destroyed .On approaching the dealer they said they remember me having bought the shoes & giving it for repair but this time nothing can be done from their end even though they acknowledged it to be a Quality fault . In spite of writing to the company customer care on 21st August I have not receivede got any reply till date.

I Purchased one the Ladies Bag from the Bata india ltd 16,regal Building Connaught place on 19th March’12.

Within three month the bag belts start tearing. It’s very surprising that company like Bata supply this kindly of quality to the consumer the bag cost 1500 and I purchase form the fresh stock.

Last week I week to the shop the shop owner advised me the send the mail to you and the bag is at his custody .kindly look into this as i used this bag for a month period and i think if this kind of incident happen we have to think twice while buying any stuff from bata because as on date i am buying all my daughter school stuff room bata and including by regular slippers as well.

Hi

I had purchased Bata sandal from Bata store in Vikhroli on 31st Aug 2012. Store address: Shop no 1, Narendra Bhavan, Old court building, Station Road, Vikhroli (W), Mumbai - 83. The sandal got faulty on 11 Sep 2012. The shopkeeper replaced the sandal, and I paid Rs 50 extra for extended warranty on the new pair. However, the replaced item also turned faulty within a week (on 17 Sep 2012). I am returning the sandal to the shopkeeper and want full refund. How can the bata sandals get damaged in 10 days? I am not sure of the quality of the sandal and dont want to get them replaced or get them repaired.

I immediately complained to their customer care (complaint no: [protected]) but not sure if any action would be taken.

I placed an order of BATA Shoes (FRANKLIN, order number[protected] online on 15th Aug 2012 @21:49:21hr. I was surprised to receive the two different shoes are of different sizes - right one is "9" and the left one is "8". It is really hard to believe that a world class company is doing business in such a poor manner specially when the two different sizes are marked and highlighted on the bottom of each shoes. I had made the complain to their customer care email id (customer.[protected]@bata.co.in) on 21st August and also called their customer care number[protected] several time, but no solution was provided. They even did not response to my email. Please help.

Dear Sir,
I am one of your customer name .Rahul Chowdhury. On date of
20/5/12 I purchased a pair shoe from your Garia BATA showroom
(Kolkata)by the amount of 1299/- ,my bill no. is 20-05-12/1/0010
00073.
Unfortunately, at last month I saw that left feet shoe is
crack from top of the sole .But that time I was out of this city .I
came on last Saturday, when today I come to your Garia showroom, one
of your employee say that “this shoes are out of guarantee".
Is it possible that one person can use 1000 rupees shoes for three
months? You are largest shoes seller in INDIA, people can’t expect
that type of support .PLZ give me the proper and best solution for me.

Thanks & Regards

I purchased an handbag on around 14th may but it but the stitching was damaged within 20 days only so i went and replaced it within the warranty period and got a new one but the new one also resulted in damaged upper material and damaged stitching within 1 month only and when i went to exchange within the warranty period of this new bag they said system is not supporting .It was really disappointing and if this is the quality provided in bata handbags then why would one buy.I would really appreciate it if i could get some help from customer care so that I could continue to be a regular customer of bata. I have attached the snapshots also of the damaged portions.

I brought a black formal shoe in 25.12.2011 from D-Block, Cannaught Place, New Delhi authorised code no. 100925 rate 1499/- only ..........my shoe sole has totely broken..........and i go to the show room the receptionist told me that you have complained online on bata website and i was told that i will get a shoe in exchange with that.so kindly look into this matter and please do something with this...thank you.

Dear Customer Executive,

I had purchased a 1 pair of Hush Puppies ( Bata India Ltd) shoes vide bill no.03545/1216 dtd.03.06.2012 from Shop No.LGF-65 , Metro Polis Mall M G Road, Gurgaon for Rs.3,499/-.

Copy of the bill is enclosed herewith for your ready reference.

Last week to my utter surprise I noticed that the shoe was having manufacturing defect as the sole on one shoe was coming out and it was impossible for me to continue wearing it.

On bringing to the notice of the Shop officials Mr.Saurabh (#[protected]) on 21.07.2012 , he immediately told that he would send it to the stores and intimate their feedback within a day or two. After 4 days when I enquired about the matter he stated that they would not replace the same but would repair it within 2 -3 days.

As the terms of conditions it clearly stipulates that any manufacturing defect arises the same would be replaced with a new one and not undergo repairs.

As the period of validity is well within 60 days , I request your good offices to raise the issue with the Agency and help me to procure a new one immediately.

Kindly settle my issues as early as possible.

If any please free to contact me on +91 [protected].

Regards,
Sai Kiran.

Dear sir , i have purchased the above model of bata shoes in jan 2012 from your store situated at nirala bazar in hotel kohinoor plaza building aurangabad (maharashtra state), withineen 6 months the sole was teared from upper leather, it is expected that
such a costly shoes should not become useless due to above mentioned problem for atleast one year, your dealer was said that
we can not take any warranty or guarrantee of shoes after two months from the date of purchse, i am coutinuously used your
product since[protected], from my college period at that time i regularly wear your company shoes named as hardi-walker
which was your one of the best product, reason for remembering all these things is that i fill bad to say that your company product
is not mentaining good quality product or shoes now a days , Hence by this letter i request you to do any needfull action
for replace my shoes , Else there will not be any alternative for me to go cunsumer court against dealer & company & to prey
them to take necessary legal action for giving justice to me

Sir,

Again I'm forced to send a mail like this....

Second worst experience from Bata.

First mail I sent, but no reply yet from bata, but this time I'm not going to sit quiet after sending this mail. I'll wait for 2 days for a response from Bata, and then will move to consumer court and file a complaint against Bata with proofs.

This year starting I bought some chappels from Bata, Ernakulam, for my wife and mother. The one I bought for my wife for 499 used only 2 times. She wore the same 2 days to office and the 3rd day she finds the problem in that. The fake leather material starts going and that day while coming back, the strap came out. If a product buying for 499 rupees, how many time should use it? This experience is not the first time to me. Last time I sent a mail, but not even a single reply from bata received. So this time I wrote seriously. Below is the mail regarding the shoe of mine which already sent mail. But this time even worst experience. Only 2 days used and 3 rd day gone, that too wearing and going and coming back in car. Bought some where in January and started using last week, but was able to use it for 3 days.

I'm going to visit the bata shop again with the defective item for their reply this week.

Sir,

I am Biby Thomas, purchased a bata shoe in 2009 Aug, for my marriage from the bata shop situated opposite to Chennai Silks, Ernakulam. I used that shoe less than 20 times yet, After marriage we went to Chennai for a function, when I walked outside from the Railway station, the sole of my right shoe fully came separate. And within this 10 usage the leather part also gone. I went to a shoe shop to stitch or paste my sole, he told this is not leather material, it is some what like a layer of lether outside the reksin. Any way i stitched and went for the function and came back. In few days o[censored]sage the leather part also gone almost completely.

If a company like bata is doing like this (keeping reksin and cheat the customers by showing it as leather). I ashamed of Bata now. I purchased that shoe for 1199/_ rs. what is this, a shoe for 1200 for less than 20 times o[censored]sage. I used it very carefully, since i mostly travel in cars, not in a crowed bus. I request Bata to stop cheating people like this, Please dont repeat this type of cheap mentality and cheating valued customers. This will definitely reduce your customer strength. sure... I purchased a woodland shoe for 1150 after the discount and using it without any issues. If you are doing like this, you should give those cheating items for less price, and give customers good items for these prices.

Why I wrote this was of 2 reason, last week my chennai friend asked me, where is that Bata shoes man? after 2 years. Then the trust in the woodlands shoes, very nice material and good one. So please treat this as an advice and Dont cheat customers like this.
