Hi, Yesterday I purchased three products from Bigbazaar store Sealdah (Kolkata), And I noticed that you've taken the selling price more than MRP of a product. Product : NEST Rice Box 300 Gram Qty : 1 Amount taken : Rs 107 MRP: 103 Please find the attached images for details. Could you please explain how the selling price including VAT can be more than MRP? Regards, Kalyan Das [protected]

On 30-3-15 I went and purchased groceries at 13.44 hours at big Bazaar, ArcotRoad branch and asked them for home delivery. My home delivery challan no. 2441 dt.[protected]. The agreed and said that the goods will be delivered in the evening. Till now 1-4-15 .. 8.30 hours the goods were not delivered. Day before yesterday and yesterday I have called them for the delay in delivery. They simply saying it will be delivered within one hour. So many hours passed delivery is yet to be made. Why these people accepting this home delivery? I have never seen like this. I have shopped in so many super markets in chennai they are prompt in service. The name may be BIG BAZAAR. WORTHLESS BAZAAR TO SAY. it is high time the authorities of this Big Bazaar to close down their shop and convert it in to a Barber Shop. இவர்கள் வ்யாபாரம் செய்வதை விட சரைக்க போகலாம். No curtesy to customers. No prompt reply in attending calls. A bad experience indeed.

i, purchase deo of park avenue from big bazaar v3s mall nirman vihar in that i, won free hair cut voucher.i registered it on21 march that voucher on line on saloon rewards.com properly and they book my registration on 30 march in khan market 44 habib saloon.when i go to the saloon on 30 march they denied me to cut the hairs because they said we don't have any tie up with park avenue or big bazaar and this is completely fake.and we don't found any prior notice regarding to this. Due to of this i lost my most precious 10 days and 4-6 prior meetings and i suffered from mentally harashement and i feel sick and doctor give me complete bed rest. so due to this i won't be able to doing work and i, lost so much precious thing because of this fraud doing by big bazar and park avenue. so, my humble request to you please do justice with me.

You was running the scheme for buying old items & scheme suppose to be valid till 29 Mar.15, but when I reached at your varanasi store on 29 mar 15 at 16.0 hrs stall has been closed already. When I asked, store person replied that scheme already closed on 28 Mar.15.

Dear readers, please don't fall prey for their exchange offers. Its pure cheating. In the big flex hoarding they compare the exchange price with the local price (like 1 Kg of paper taken for Rs.50/- whereas the local shops would do this for Rs.12/-). So eventually when one reads this, get the idea that he is going to get Rs.50/- or something worth the same amount which can make his purchase something. Sounds reasonable till this point. In reality, what they give is useless discount coupons with a money tag Rs.50, which will be a sure burden or trap for the customer. To get any 'benefit' from these discount coupons the customer may need to purchase items work Rs.200 or Rs.400 (4 times or 8 times) depending upon the commodity selected from the store. I can't find any better word other than pure-day-light-robbery for this whole process. When asked the cashier why can't they give the clear instructions in the big posters, the guy saved himself by directing me to a customer care professional, who was equally useless as the former one, and pointed out they are doing this for the last 4 years. I was shocked to hear this, how can our customers tolerate this kind of cheating all these times !! To conclude, Big Bazaar looted my resources (in the form of some clothes) and gave me a promise (in the form of discount coupons which has 'Terms and Conditions' written in small letter in the paper back) that I can make any purchase with the exchange. Corporate lairs.

I am vikram and my contact no is [protected], I am very thankful to everyone who involved in changing process of my Oven. I am not able to update my complaint ID 1030389 dated 25 Mar. Is the terms and condition were OK which were given to me for changing the oven. i have also mailed to the concerned authorities of big bazaar and ezone but didn't received any reply. These were (1) only today 27 mar i can change if i will come on 28 they will not. (2) We will not be giving any gift voucher but a credit note because it cannot be divided for multiple purchases. (3) Oven is compulsory to purchase and its value has to be more then the credit note, i cannot purchase anything else in big bazaar with that credit note except in ezone (but not multiple items in ezone and value has to be more). i was trying for OTG, vacuum cleaner, sandwich toaster and juicer and bill on grand total can be paid from that credit note. (4) i cannot use any coupon (i don’t know why if bill no is new then why coupon cannot be used) though the cashier agreed otherwise i have to pay more Rs 1500 as per their condition. (5) i cannot return the item in any case. What is the RETURN policy? i was feeling that i have done a big mistake to come to Big bazaar, the same oven which i got at today is just 11690 at flipkart (without any discount) and i got it with discount at Rs 11321. When I asked ezone that flipkart is giving at 1200 rs (as per MRP IN FLIPKART) less then yours, their answer was we cannot compare with online store. But when you see ezone online store there is a difference of 1700 rs. what is the use of giving my old oven.(6) when ezone can use coupons of big bazaar then why can't he give gift vouchers of big bazaar. (7) why i cannot purchased multiple items from that credit note (8) why they cannot take the item back, when it is in same condition as given by Big bazaar, not opened, its warranty card not even stamped. Is it that item once sold cannot be returned. (9) Earlier on 25 store manager said that he confirmed from higher authorities and it cannot be changed and on 26 Mar Store manager said that he has been ordered to change it today only tomorrow it is not possible and we will not change. At this time store manager was behaving as i have done a major crime of purchasing items from big bazaar/ezone (10) Why a customer is misguided by store in-charge that he cannot use discount coupons, though they are in validity and scheme is going on. (11) There exchange programme in which it is clearly mention that any electrical scrap is 1000/KG, but when I went there they said it is misprinted actually it is Rs 300/Kg, and when i told them that I want to speak to your supervisor they said you take it at 500/KG.

This is displeasing to say that the very first experience of our big bazaar "Raja garden" was extremely annoying. We did a shopping worth rupees 2197 on clothes. When we reached at the billing counter we were accused of being out of line by one of your employees named "DEVENDER" and also forcing him to do our billing even when we were the only customer for billing. He very rudely straight away denied to do our billing and also challenged us that he will not do whosoever we call whether it being the manager or anyone else (even the owner). After much hustle bustle the manager himself did made our billing. After listening and reading about your stores finally we planned to visit the store. We are a resident of Dwarka sector 1-A and after travelling much distance and devoting much we definitely do not expect such a response. This behaviour of yours is just not acceptable. We expect a quick and just action as soon as possible.

Kindly note that on the 31st of January 2015 the micro wave refused to switch on. I promptly lodged a complaint with your customer care centre on the 1st of February 2015 (complaint number: 521910). A service engineer visited our residence on the 3rd of February 2015 and proclaimed that the PCB was faulty and needed replacement. He informed us that the part would be available in the next 48 hours post which he would come and replace the faulty part. It has been 22 days since that day and we have not heard from the service engineer till date. Your customer care centre refuses to lodge any further complaints as one complaint is already open and the only answer I receive is that the part would arrive in the next couple of days. I have just one question to ask …… Is the faulty part arriving from the moon as any delivery across the world can be completed in less than 7 days ? In case it is too much of a trouble to replace the part, then kindly either replace the product or provide us with a refund. Awaiting a revert from your end before I take any further steps.

So I request before you that this type of job may please stop from your Big Bazar counter, T24 representative are fraud, and it you can not stop this business then it will hamper your renowned business.

Hello, Today i made purchase of some Grocery Product along with Britannia Cakes from Big Bazaar Store in Ambience Mall, Gurgaon with Bill No: 15281 and Invoice No: 5475. This is to inform you that the expiry date mentioned behind Britannia Cake was 16/09/11 which is now more than 3.5 years old. Above cake has been consumed by my Twins daughter who are 5 years old. I tried to give above information to Store Supervisor but instead of excepting, he was continuously arguing with us and tried to tear the bill so that we wont have any proof with us. There was a argument between us for almost 10-15 mins after which the argument become heated and we came out of your store safely. I have been using Big Bazaar Profit Club Card from the last 12 month and was having faith on you people. But above overall experience made me down and I am feeling very tortured. I will take this case to Consumer Forum if strict action has not been taken against Store Supervisor. Regards Rahul
