Bharat Petroleum [BPCL] Complaints & Reviews

Respected Sir,
I have following few points for your humble consideration please.
1. I had submitted an application for taking new connection to M/s. Chitra Gas Agency, Sec 55, Noida (U.P.) on 08 april 2008.
2. I am a Government Servantg and not able to visit their office again and again for taking a new connection.
3. On account of this, they even after 23 days did not give any response to my application.
4. On visiting their office on 29 April 2008 about complaing about not giving new connection, the behaviour of agency staff was highly unparliamentary and objectionable.
5. They were not using proper words and even using vulgar words.
6. The staff and manager on duty refused me to giving me new connection while I had all the proper documents required
7. The base of refusal was only that I was not visiting their office again and again leaving the government duty.
8. Sir, Kindly look into the matter and take appropriate disciplinary actions in this respect against the agency so that another consumer would not have to face such harassments.
9. I am anticipating your positive reply within one week.

Sir,

We are having LPG connection from Bharat Petroleum through BALAJI GAS AGENCIES, ARASARADI, MADURAI. Now i have applied for an additional LPG CYLINDER but the Agency is demanding to purchase Kitchen items in their show room for Rs.1500/-, then only they will give ADDITIONAL LPG CYLINDER for us.

This is not right to compell the consumer to purchase for Rs.1500 just for booking an ADDITIONAL LPG CYLINDER.

Please guide me to set right this problem and enable me to get ADDITIONAL LPG CYLINDER FROM BHARAT PETROLEUM.

Company Name: BHARAT PETROLEUM
Dealer Name: BALAJI GAS AGENCY, ARASARADI, MADURAI
My Consumer Number: 61296

The most poor service...lack o[censored]nderstanding customer care..not responding to the calls...

Dear Sir/ Mam,
I am a resident of saltlake Kolkata. my name is mayank sharma. my BHARAT GAS consumer card no. is 20013 at ur distributor in salt lake. i booked my gas on 31/03/08. and they did not deliver it.after that on 23/04/08 i have gone to them. they gave me a mobile number to call and after that i called this man he gave me delivery on 24th morning. and asked for 400 rupees.
where normal rate is 320 rs. its the clear case showing that ur distributor is indulged in black marketing. he is stocking gas cylinders to make shortage and taknig advantage of this situation by doing black.
I[censored] feel that as a responsible company bharat gas should take proper action regarding this then i think ur this site worth something.
thank you

Sir

After my marriage on 24-11-07 I shifted to 44 Shalimar Bagh, Ajmer Road Jaipur. I had contacted your LPG Gas Dealer MS Gulab Gas Agency, Shop No. 91-92, Guru Jambeshwar Nagar, Vaishali Nagar, Jaipur in month of December 07 and submitted documents as suggested by your company agency

1. Affadavit of having no gas connection of any company
2. Copy of Tenancy Agreemtn as Address Proof

I was assured by your agency that after site instection the connection shall be released. I contacted the above agency time and again for site inspection. I also requested for a prior information for instection as me and my wife are both working persons. Hence to make ourselves available for inspection.

After repeated requests and reminders, agency representative Mr HariOm came for inspection on 18th April 2008. He inspected the site and inquired for present gas cylinder. As we started newly married life, owing to delay from the gas agency, we had to borrow a cylinder from one of our relatives to prepare our daily meals. This was well explained to representative Mr HariOm. He okayed all requirements. After inspection when asked if formalities were completed he asked to visit his office next working day.

I would also mention here that on my visit the same week to gas agency for follow up I was forced by the front desk lady as well as one of her colleague with mustaches to purchase a hot gas plate from them mentioning that it was a compulsion from Bharat Gas or else connection shall be refused. I refused to accept this.

Today 18th April when I visited the gas agency to take the connection, I was surprised to see the findings of the inspecing person Mr HariOm that applicant is already having a gas connection and on these grounds my connection has been denied. Surprisingly when Mr hariOm saw me he ran away from agency. I slao talked to the lady representative at the agency. She was not having satisfactory reply. I also want to place on record that earlier when I visited agency I had been continously being compelled by front desk lady and her colleague to purchase a gas stove. I asked the gas agency to provide me in writing the refusal of the connection and she refused to provide same.

I also tried to contact the customer officer Mr kamlesh over his telephone number [protected]. But he was not having any time to listen to my plea and asked me to contact on monday or tuesday.

Sir this is clean direct case of harrasment of the consumer by the ganecy and company representatives.

1. I had been kept waiting for a connection for 4 months.
2. The maniulated information put in by Mr HariOm and his escaping from the scene at agency clearly identifies his malignant and corrupt desires.
3. The forcing of the front desk lady continously for purchasing a hot gas plate stove mentions her corrupt desires. I would like to place it in records that while my presence at agency on April 18th the same lady had forced another customer Mr Anandi Lal to purchase a gas stove and released his connection only after he agreed to purchase the stove.
4. Also on my presence Mr HariOm released another connection to a customer on name of his father with his own signatures. This metions the deeply rooted corruption in agency.
5. The denial of Mr kamlesh to hear customer plea is a very clear indication of the networked corrution in play with cooperation of Agency and the Bharat Gas Company.

Had I had any malignant intentions, I could have easily removed my cylinder during inspection and played the trick. But as a honest customer believing in Bharat Gas to understand the customer problem who is waiting for a connection since last 4 months, I never chose to play with the matter.


I would request you to please issue me a gas connction and resolve my harrasment at earliest.

I am facing trouble from Bharat Gas here in HBR Layout. I had booked my cylinder a MONTH back, and since then have been reminding the agency continuously about the this. But they are indifferent to making a delivery to my place. I had shifted my connection from Vivek Nagar last month and this is the first time I am getting to encounter such behavior.

Address to the Agency:

201, 3rd Main Road
Next to CMR College
OMBR Layout
Banaswadi, Bangalore-560043

Sir,

I, Mr. Vishwas Anant Samant,
205, Tirupathi complex, Ram mandir road, Bhabali naka,
Borivali, mumbai.

I went to sunandan Ageny [ authorized agency for Bharat Gas], borivali (w) to book new gas connection. Ageny's representative told me to purchase gas stove or 10kg dawat rice + 1 kg tata tea if i want new connection.
This is kind of black marketing for new gas conenction. I request you to do needful and save interest of consumers.

Thanks,

vishwas samant

I had booked my refill order on 20/3/2008. but still i had not got delivery for same, ...
Previously I had booked my refill order on 30/1/2008, which was delivered on 22/2/2008.
Is these a sign of non-capability of BPCL to provide service to satisfy it's customers. I am at BODELI, where I had taken new connection for HOME USE..
Is they are taking these much time for Industrial or Commercial Users also..
Is there any way to transfer my this connection to another Company..??????????

sir,
I have ordered for gas before 8 months from one of your agency named HI- POWER BHARAT GAS AGENCY (Distributor No.641767)
situated at MUNDUR, PALAKKAD, KERALA. They are not at all responding to our frequent complaints, please take action on this complaint, as no other customer has suffered much as me, and for the last EIGHT MONTHS... and still it is continuing...PLEASE DO THE NEEDFUL
M.RAVEENDRAN NAMBOODIRI
KATAMPAZHIPURAM (CUSTOMER NO.004051)

Please inform us what is the procedure for Changing of Name and Adress of Connection

Manav Enterprise in Frazer town( Bangalore )(Bharath Gas) is one of the worst gas ageny even encountered .They would never pick your call.
You book for a refill and you will be assured the same over a week. They would never refill as assured.And then you need to keep calling everyday (trying your luck as they never pick the receiver).If lucky you might get it after another 15 or 20 days (provided you call everyday ) ... Isnt this frustrating ...will govt do something abt this... everyday you would be assured about the refill which never happens...end of the day you just keep rising you BP ...

This is a complaint against one of Bharat Gas agency or maybe the company itself. I am one BIG ANGRY AND DISSATISFIED customer of Bharat Gas.

I wanted a new connection for my home and I visited SURYA GAS AGENCY in Ulhasnagar - 1, Dist. Thane, Maharashtra

There I was asked for Rs. 3700.00 for new connection which included a burner. I asked them to allot me only cylinder as I have one good quality sealed packed BRANDED PRESTIGE model burner with BILL and WARRANTY that I am willing to show. It was purchased from reputed store with ALL ORIGINAL tags and stamps.

I was refused to get it. THEY MADE IT COMPULSORY to get the burner while it was clearly written on the board there that customer is at a liberty to choose whether he needs a burner from us or not. After much bias, they said if I want to get the cylinder only then one of your representative will visit my home and check the burner and specifications. I agreed. At the same time the madam sitting there said, but we will surely refuse your merchandise because agency owner don't want to issue anyone a cylinder without burner.

Despite being frustrated, I agreed to spend extra money and get burner.

Now another issue, I was forced to take 2 packs of tea and 2 kg of rice with it and a cylinder trolley too.

NOW WHAT IS THIS?

I can't afford to have Rs.69/- per kg rice and that too 2 kg.

This added Rs. 375.00 to my account with connection. Details:

2 x 250gm Tea = Rs. 112.00
2 x 1kg rice = Rs. 138.00
1 x Trolley = Rs. 125.00

Now this has made me sick. I needed cylinder connection worth Rs. 1250.00 and had to pay Rs. 4000 in total for the things I DON'T NEED.

Now this is a request to you to look into it and act.
There was a lady sitting on managers chair.

Even their internet site's feedback form is not working.

dear sir,
my coustomer id is 26150 at COOKLEEN gas agency.
city- Kolkata (W.Bengal). I have booking my cylinder
date-15.02.2008 and registered my booking order as 7592 but COOKLEEN gas agency does not
delivered the gas cylinder to me. i had several times rang them up for the same, but they replied as we have already received the cylinder. Where as they did not supplied the gas cylinder.More over after that COOKLEEN gas agency not willing to respose my phone calls or hang me up on phone line only. And fore me up to do a new booking for refill. now I'm helpless and did as they wish.
I think this kind of harrasment, callousness & rude behavior of bharatgas agent is not tolarable. I stongly protest against this kind of matter and need your intervention to resolve the matter.

We (consumer) are facing lots of problems several times with Bharat Gas Agency – SHRAVAN GAS SERVICES # 693, 7TH Main, CBI Road, R.T Nagar, Bangalore 560 032.

First of all they have 5 phone lines which is always busy so for booking we need to take one day office leave and go to them.

From past 2 years whenever we booked Cylinder they will say 10 days and we need to follow every alternate days and altogether it will be 45-50 days.

4 months back they asked me my passport and letter saying they can book the Cylinder after 21 days and delivery will be within 2 days but still no improvement on minimum days even now they says it will be 10+ days.

one more major problem is I have a strong thinking that the delivery boys guf[censored]p the deliveries because sometime Cylinder will go for 30 day and sometime time it is only 20 days same number of person at my residence and same type of food we make if it is 3-5 days then its ok but 10days …..

The service level and response by the agency staff is atrocious. They carry an attitude of who cares and do whatever you want. I am facing this kind of problems from past 2 years.

I request you to do the needful otherwise I need to take some other action.
Thanks.

I am consumer of Bharat Petroleum. I had booked for a LPG cylinder on 01/03/2008. In this regard I have not yet received refill of the LPG cylinder till date. I had a talk with manager of Rapti Gas Service Opposite Inspection House Anand Bagh, Balrampur - 271201, Distributer Code (561873) But he has not redressed my complaint till date. Now whenver, I make a call, the staff simply answer we will give you very soon. Non-delivery of cylinder has put me and my family in great hardship and I have been put into a lot of mental harassment, because of the indifferent attitude and apathy. I request you to kindly take up this matter with appropriate authorities and redress my grievance.

Thanks and regards,

This is to inform you that we had booked for a cylinder on 22.02.08 and the agent had given us a booking number of 51 and confirmed that it will be delivered within a week's time. We had requested them to deliver only on Saturdays and Sundays since for the last 14 years we are receiving the Gas in this manner. But till to-day we have not received the Cylinder. They are telling any stupid reason for the delay. Please look into it.

Sir,

The total cost of the cylinder with original bill is 1400. but I had to pay Rs 5800 for cylinder, Gas Stove, and some misc items like Rice, Tea Powder which was made complusory. I dont understand why I need to pay Rs 4500 more for other Things which I dont want to purchase. I want to get Reply from the higher authority of Bharat Petrolum regarding this isssue.
