I had clearly communicated that I need a babysitter whose healthy to take care of my toddler. I received replacements after following up umpteenth number of times everyday after weeks and they leave sighting health reasons. I fail to understand that why is health of maids not being considered when babysitting is a service where this needs to be accounted for as a top priority. I hired a maid yesterday and she leaves today saying that the agency didnt communicate the requirements to her. I am a working professional and have already taken 2 weeks leave because the BOOKMYBAI contact tells me that she is unable to find anyone for my location. How am I supposed to deal with this I do not understand. Frankly if you are unable to do your job, please be upfront and let us know. We will stop relying on you and start looking elsewhere.
Dear Ms. Femida,

Due the location of your residence it was super difficult to find maids of the type of criteria of maid that you required. Although this cannot be accepted as an excuse we will try our level best to service the requirement. Interviews were conducted at your residence of whoever we found. Unfortunately you did not like any one of them. We are still working on your requirement and will strive to close this asap. Really appreciate your patience.

Thanks

Dear Anupam,

I requested you to find a babysitter and not a maid.

My location has not changed since the time I connected with Book My Bai. If you are unable to provide services in a certain location; I suggest you do not take those requests in the first place. I do not appreciate this as a response on such a portal.

I trusted you and gave you a fair chance to service me but one of the babysitters you sent at my residence had pan stains on her teeth. It appeared as if she had just finished her packet of "ghutka" before stepping in for an interview. How much of hygiene and health you considered here I am not sure. The one who I liked was not willing to work for the time I required service. How much you explained them my requirements and how much effort you took is very evident.

However that is not a concern; you challenged me that no one can provide a service better than your company but I could hire a babysitter without your assistance. After that you promised me a lifetime credit note of 12000 as per your company policy on 26 Aug 2016. You mentioned that i will get that in a day or two in my emails. I never received anything. When I called you on 2 Sep 2016; you did not even remember this incident. With thorough respect; I am not sure how many such escalations you deal with but you just told me that you lost my contact and will have the request processed.

It has been 30 calendar days where you have not even done what you assured. If a owner of a company cannot keep his word how can consumers trust such a company. I do not intend to have any relations with Book My Bai.

I request you to refund the 12000 I paid for your service. I do not intend to refer Book My Bai to any of my family or friends or colleagues so a credit note is a waste. If you give me that option; I will treat it as BookMyBai just dumped me of 12000.

    We have made a payment to bookmy bai for assisting us in securing a maid, however the maids provided to us have had no experience or even capable of the very job assigned, some don't even know Hindi, all this despite offering Rs. 20, 000/- per month per maid. They asked us to keep them for trial period at Rs. 16, 000 per month. Their maids have conveniently left us in a few days stating they don't wish to work here & now the company phones go unanswered. We need the company to provide us a replacement asap since they have been absolutely unprofessional & we see no reason that they get to earn fees for duping us. We need to take this matter seriously else suspect that the company is hand in glove with such maids to make a mockery out of our genuine need for assistance. If they are a serious agent then they must assist us in securing us the requisite maids since they have been paid in advance else refund us our monies.
    I have been conned by Book My Bai as well and I am taking them to Consumers Forum Court (The Consumers Disputes Redressal Forum) They need to learn that they cannot take customers for a ride.

      The service and the maids that BookMyBai provides is really bad. They do not respond well.
      Also the maids provided by them are not good. They have caused us a lot of inconvenience. In one month we we changed 3 maids. Everyone had some or the other problem. And the between the time next maid was made available already 2 days had gone. Also always for any problem I had to call, never was the call received by them even after telling them our problem.

        This bookmybai.com is total fraud. i paid for the express service an amount of rs 1000, in which they promise to call within 1 hours. nobody called. and when i called their rep anil - [protected], this person was extremely rude and ungracious. i asked for my refund back on which he said send your account details. when i went back to the site, there was no customer care number to talk to. i had to call this person back and again when he dismissed me saying that my amount will be refunded after a week and if i want i can take any action if its not refunded (which was sounding very arrogant). horrible experience. beware of this fraud site.
        Dear Poorva,

        Apologies for the experience that you had to go through. I will personally look into this matter and make sure action is taken if any of my representative were rude to you.

        As far as the refund is concerned, kindly send in your bank details to us and it will be refunded as soon as possible. The bank usually takes 2-3 working days to revert the charge. You can also contact me at [protected]@bookmybai.com in case you have any further concerns.

        Again, apologies for the inconvenience. I hope you will use our services in the future

        Thanks

          I reside outside of india and due to medical reasons i needed to get a live in maid for my mother last year. I was referred to bookmybai by a diferrent satified nri patron. I will list the good as i believe in giving credit where it is due.

          Very good communication in 2015. We had a list of 3 potential matches to our requirements. Selected the first candidate that we interviewed. Paid 15k per month which based on my market research was 20% more than prevailing market rate. No complaints about the individual helping us.

          We were so satisfied that i have been recommending bookmybai to all my friends who have elderly care needs in india. I know of at least 3 people who have taken advantage of bmb's offerings.

          Fast forward to 2016 at the end of one yearof the contract, bookmybai is now presuurising the maid to resign and move to a new family. They have offered us the option to retain the exisitng maid if we pay the one month referral fee. This in my mind is pure extortion. I hire contractors for work on a daily basis. If i ever came across such business practices from any of my vendors not only would they be blacklisted forever in my org but also i would share the info with other orgs that have similar hiring needs.

          Anupam - you seem like a smart guy who wants to build a business that has long term value. I hope you see the error of making a small gain at the cost of long term reputation. I hope you end this silly practice that will earn you maybe an extra $200 per annum per contract but may end up losing revenue in multiples of that #.

          I hope that i can continue to be a proponent of your excellent service and that you will do the right thing for your long term customers.
          Dear Mr. Deepak,

          I can assure you that no one and absolutely no one from my office has called the maid and asked her to leave. Also you mentioned that someone called you to pay again to retain the maid. We do not work on that policy and I can guarantee no one from my office has called you for this either. I would take this matter very seriously since I am sure no one from my office is responsible for this. It seems like the maid has shared your number with some other agency. Its not us. Kindly share the phone number of the person who called you and asked to pay again on [protected]@bookmybai.com and I will personally look into this matter

          Again, re-assuring you that we are building a brand and a company which will solve a ever-growing problem and we do not follow any malpractice. Also kindly email me your contact details also since I would like to know more about this. I am stunned and surprised something like this happened

                We are still a customer of Bookmybai. Our initial experience with the company was really good. Even the maid we got was good. We had got a full time babysitter, hence her payment was high, so was the fees paid to the agency (1 month salary of maid). But in less than 3 months, our maid left and said she cannot join back (not even 1 day notice). We tried convincing her as we both (husband wife) are working full time, it was difficult to manage things suddenly. But my real concern is, our agency contact person seems very passive about all this. In whole last week (since maid left), we called her minimum 10 times. She sounds very assuring on the call that she will convince our maid to come for 2 weeks or she will provide new maid etc etc) but does not contact us later at all. I am not sure what exactly we paid(11K Rs) the agency for. Only for providing one maid? If the agency sounds so professional, why cant they make sure that maids do not leave with minimum notice period(unless an absolute emergency, which is not in our case at least) or convince them accordingly? I can imagine it must be difficult to deal with maids, but in case of (24hours) full time babysitters, there should be some criteria for them as well. We actually were very impressed initially but now we are very disappointed even though we were very very supportive with the agency person as well as the maid. This complaint is not written to spoil the company's name or misuse social media, but just because we do not know whom to contact now in this case. As we do not have any other agency customer care contact number. If again we contact our POC from agency, we would be hearing some stories which we are tired to hear by now.
                Just to add on to it, even after calling mumbai office number and talking to senior people from bookmybai customer care team, we did not receive a single call back from them since last 7 days. Lady had told me that she would provide me new babysitter urgently(!)
                I would suggest all, NOT to use this maid service in PUNE.
                Very very poor service, huge fees, no refunds, irresponsible agents who just assure many things on phone and later do not contact you at all.
                Even I have been conned by Book My Bai and I intend to take them to Consumers Forum Court (The Consumers Disputes Redressal Forum)

                  Fraud service, poor quality maids and no experience to run the business

                  Address: Mumbai City, Maharashtra

                  This agency is a cheater and NO ONE SHOULD TAKE THEIR SERVICE. Absolutely waste of time, unqualified maids and big promises. I have used services of 2-3 agencies before and they were much better than this option. I felt I paid for maid that doesn't help and their team could not resolve basic questions. Be careful when you go to them....
