I have also participated in this challenge. Supposedly my book was published on August 13 2021, it is listed on two ebook websites and Turkish amazon. However none of them are available to order. And they never were. I've emailed them and was told there were server issues a while back. A week ago I emailed them again to inquire further and have not received any reply to that.

I had that same issue a month ago with US Amazon. I finally pestered them enough that the listing got put back up, but the covers for the book got skewed and misaligned, so that parts are cut off and unreadable. I am now trying to get them to take down the listing because they have not paid me my royalties either, and I haven't heard from them at all.
I too participated in the same competition and I'm not happy with their responses. My book hasn't been published yet, but their final draft in itself has a bunch of issues (mistakes from their end), which they aren't letting me correct. It's already been taking more than 2 months to publish and they've been continuously pushing the dates. The promises were to publish it in various platforms and e-stores. But now they say it'll only be on Amazon. If it weren't for the initial 2000 Rs I paid, I would have complained about them much earlier. I really want to revoke my publishing rights and get a refund.
Like every other new writer, I too participated in the 21 poems in 21 days challenge and it's been 2 months since the team has not gave any promising respond just the autobots and all. I've paid them 1600, as that was the admitting fees into the competition which they promised to publish the book and so on .And I too want to revoke my publishing rights and get a refund.
The same is my issue. I am facing a problem. This company is a fraud.
The publishing consultant hasn't responded properly in four months. The team has no accountability on issue resolution, they have not shared the sales report, and they have practically looted us of the royalties that they had mentioned in the agreement. Strict action should be taken collectively against the publishing house. They continue to run challenges and contests, and they continue to onboard new authors without attending to all the issues raised by existing authors. Shameful.
