I am writing this email to inform you that I was wearing formal Bata shoes from last 2 year and didn't find any complaint about this but this time I was shocked with shoes which doesn't match with the standard of the such brand name. This is how that I purchased shoe from Karol Bagh outlet three months back and after wearing two months its sole pasting get torn off and detached from the shoe. I was surprised after buying a shoes from such company facing such a type of problem and dealers also not cooperating in the problem. I have complaint for it to the concerned dealer at - Opposite Gaffar Market, Ajmal Khan Road, Karol Bagh, Delhi - 110005. I request the concerned authorities of the Company to take some suitable action to cure default. Waiting for a immediate & a positive response. Aman Jindal M no.[protected] New Delhi

We had on 1/4/2014 visited bata store at sayaji rao road mysore to buy a sandal. Since I wanted size 8 and the only sandal available there, was tried and as I wore it, its rivet broke off and on enquiry they said they would get it repaired immediately and they did and on confirmation that the sandals will have no further problem, we brought the sandals costing Rs.2000/-. They guaranteed us that the sandal can be brought back with receipt in case it gives any further problem. On coming home I tried wearing the sandal and I found that the rivet again broke and I could not wear it at all. Since I was too busy to visit the store for couple of days, I went again to the store to inform them regarding the problem on 6/4/2014 and they were very indifferent now and said that I can get a exchange only if a size 8 sandals is got by them and that they would inform us. They also informed that the return would be taken only within 15 days of purchase and since there was no size 8 they informed that I would have a chance to return only within another 6 or 7 days provided they get a size 8 sandal. They also informed that the money paid would not be refunded. What sought of sandal are you giving the customer, damaged sandal with no exchange nor refund of money paid. Kindly look into the same at the earliest If nothing happens I would be forced to visit the consumer forum.

I had approached their showroom in November 2013 from where the product was purchased and I brought to their notice, they advised me that I should lodge a complaint on the email. Accordingly, I had written mails to their customer services centre on customer.[protected]@bata.co.in in December 2013 which they did not reply despite several reminders. Again I approached their show room and they advised to lodge complaint on their phone number [protected]. I had lodged a verbal complaints on this phone number in January 2014 vide complaint no.156313.

I am surprised to note that a product of Bata worth Rs.2000/- can't even last for even six months. I have attached the soft copy of my mails to them for your ready reference

Dear Sir :

I have been a patron customer of Bata since couple decade doing shopping from Bata show rooms right from Colaba Mumbai, Fort, Mahim and now Borivali.

Off late there are issues mainly with the sole of any shoe or for that matter sandle. The sole does not last for a year or so even if the shoe price may be runs in two or three thousand.

I had purchased a shoe from Bata Show room at Thakkar Shopping mall at S V Road, Borivali west vide cash receipt no.26/5113/1/0140/02417 dated[protected] and product code [protected] price Rs.1899/-.

I have visit this show room along with the above cash receipt and they have advised me to write to customer service cell.

I have a complaint that the sole of my shoe is broken in the centre and both the soles are peeled off from the upper portion within six to eight month. Out of this I have not used the shoe during rainy season at all.

Therefore, I actually used the shoes only from May 2013 a couple of days and from October to December 2013. Just image the bad quality of product despite we pay higher price tag.

I would request you to review my compliant in considering the quality and do justice. Its not fair that a Corporate like Bata selling sub standard product in the market which does not even last for six.

To The Manager, Bata India Ltd. Dear Sir, Ref No.: Model No. 5286121 Cash Memo no. 18-01-14/1/0069 Sub: Complain of you store salesman. With due reference I inform to you that I am a regular customer of your Bata Store, Grand Hotel Branch. Now a days I facing lots of problem from your particulars store. I purchased a Huss puppies shoe (size 3) from last year. Due to torn of my shoe within guarratty period shoe had been replaced of your store 18/01/2014. And also note that due to no stock of your store since December 2013 I change my brand and replace alternative 2 shoes. But problem is one shoe model no. 5286121 price is Rs.2499/- is same which I purchased earlier. So I go to Esplanade store for replace the shoe. But due to 3no. size is not available from your store Sales man Gopal Das (Mob no. [protected] & [protected])taken my shoe and written over Xerox bill “received 25/01/2014”. He gave me his mob no. & store no. But several time I go to your store and no size available. But today i.e. 15/03/2014 I again go to your store and facing a shocking experience which I never express anyone. Your sales man Ganesh Das is told that I not receive any shoe. I surprised your store salesman behavior. He told that he never receive any shoe from me & he not written receive he written ”Reporting 25/01/2014”. Than my question is if he not receive my shoe why he written “Reporting 25/01/2014”. From December13 to March14 I spend so many rupees for taxi fare. One who spend Rs.4000/- for shoe she can kept shoe to home. How your salesman talking like rubies. Rs.2499/- not so many valueable for me. I am a capable to spend money for my shoe. But I am shocking very much from your sales man. My advice that you not give my Rs2499/-. But your salesman should be some knowledge in English & also some good behavior. I told my family members & friend that never purchase any shoe from your particular store. I represent a well known family seriously I am very upset.now I request to you please see your cc tv footage on 25.01/2014 on esplanade bata store. Please reply my letter. I am going for lok adalot during this matter and see what the end. But after that I am waiting from your early reply. Thanking you, Yours faithfully, Soma Mukherjee (Mob No. [protected]/[protected])

I bought one pair of bata hush puppies from bata showroom Thalipparamba, Kannur, Kerala. I used it within one month less than ten times, after that the sole this sandal has peeled off. I made a complaint to the dealer, for that I had to go there with sandal for four times. More than that I did not get it back till now. I am waiting for the sandal for two months after it"s rectification. Whenever I made enquiry...I got response that it did not come from the bata company and it is not our fault and it is the fault of company... -What is the actual problem in this? -Who is the culprit in this problem? -How many months I have to run behind this matter after paying an amount of 2000 rs for the sandals? -Whether the company give any value for customer's money? Anticipating a replay soon...

To Whom It May Concern, I want to say you that I have purchased pair of shoes (851-H017, Size – 7, Re.1799) from Bata showroom Regale Building in month of October 2013, While buying the famous brand product of BATA and having complaint of crack sole and pasting removed on both of my pair in 5 months is simply a disgraceful thing I am facing. After visiting the store they are simply not attending and diverting me to the helpdesk after chasing of 15 days. At the time of purchased they told me that warranty will cover pasting for 60 days and sole for 6 months but after having the crack sole as well as in the heel they are saying it will cover for only 60 days or talk to customer care. Hence I hereby want to request you please replace this pair of broken and tore shoes. If we have this type of issue in the product of Branded Company“ Bata” what is the use of buying this brand and nobody is attending to replace that shoes what is the difference between the branded and local Company. And as the quality of the Bata shoes is not good, even haven’t worked for 6 months. So please take care of consumer and do need full as soon as possible. Regards

Dear Bata Management Team,

It is a very painful experience I have ever had from a branded company like you.
I have never used a Non Bata shoes since I have started using slippers and shoes. In the month of Oct' 2013,
I purchased a shoes for Rs1700 from Bata Showroom (Address : 40, SNP Area, Purulia Highway, Sakchi, Jamshedpur, Jharkhand).
Using after 4 Months only the sole got cracked. I went to the show room for complain. They told me complains can only be taken within or before 2 Month of a purchased date. The Sales Executive told us, that he will repair the shoes, but when we went to pick the same on 23rd Feb'14, the conditions remains the same. It is bring into your notice, we checked the fresh shoes from the Bata outlet &amp; we found that there were cracks in the Sole of fresh shoes.
Only this which I want to put before you is the QUALITY OF A BRAND. Please let me know is anyone can help me on this. Although I know this mail will not be entertained still as a good customer I will try for a last hope.
Accompanying photograph speaks every thing of the quality. I hope the company would do justice in replacing the one with better and long lasting quality.

Regards,
