I have purchased courses from 8th to 10th by paying full amount through credit card. And got the advantage of interest free emis.

On the next day of the receipt of the kit i found that tab audio was not there. I have struggled a lot in contacting byju's team and done all the things as advices. But problem was not solved.

More than 20 call i received from team of byju's but not got the final conclusion of the problem.

My son had some doubt to clarify, so whom to contact and how to contact, that information was also not provided even after 15 days follow ups and email exchange.

So far as money is concerned, i was told that emis are purely interest free. So i opted emi facility. But in the first month credit card statement, after paying to byju's, i seen that the interest was charged in credit card statement and gst was also charged upon this.

Here also byju's team has sent official message that their finance depart confirmed that no interest is charged though it is clearly visible in statement.

Now i need full refund of paid money and interest charges and gst charged with kit return courier charges. Byju's team is not confirming my return request since more than a week.

The sociology optional teacher sucks, he really sucks and he can’t teach properly i don’t like watching his videos and preparation for the exam has gotten stuck, i’ve paid a lot of money to byjus i think i made a mistake and should have consulted more people. The guidance is extremely bad and it’s only based on the motivation of the student.
I think it has to more inclusive than just watching videos and learning.
The teacher should know the weaknesses of the student and aim at developing them, here there is no such thing it is somewhat impersonal.
Firstly the guidance counceller had asked me to give her money to meet her and she was that busy.
It’s really horrible the guidance i wish i saved my money.

We took one byjus kit for my son residing in hyderabad, in dec'2018 for rs 67, 000, paid cash of rs 4, 000 and paid rs 9000 through cheque.
For remaining rs 54000, your counselor advised for an emi of rs 4500 per month in a tenure of 12 months (January 2019 to december 2019)
We accepted the same. And we at the time of acceptance strongly conveyed that we can't pay before 15th of any month.
But he assured your emi shall not be bounced and shall be taken care of himself personally. And in the process, your counselor has taken my cheques and bank statements for required processing. During processing, he said that you are unable to process though my hdfc bank account and took my husband account details and processed through my husband's rbl bank account.. At that time (On 11th dec 2018), i asked byjus counselor that we received messages for nach process for both of my account and my husband account also. He responded that he first tried in hdfc account and it was cancelled in hdfc.
In the months of january 2019 and february 2019, amount paid through my husband's account that is rbl account.
But in the month of march 2019, we received messages for 2 accounts again and processed for hdfc and rbl accounts. We didn't pay this month emi due to this issue. We sent my account statement to byjus finance department and i am penalized 1180 rs because of byjus team. We have tried to reach byjus counselor, but he was not responded to our calls, he responded for our message on march 11th and replied that he resolved the issue. But still issue remains as same. Again byjus team processed for ecs on hdfc account on 18th of march, so i am penalized unnecessarily for which i am confidently informed that from day 1 my account has been cancelled for an ecs form. After so many calls and complaints and mails, then they checked and told that counselor who came to my house created 2 accounts in the name of my son.
Byjus team cancelled my hdfc nach account and at the time also we strongly mentioned that after they settles the penalty charges only we will pay march 2019 emi.
But till now they haven't called and spoke regarding the march2019 emi and for refund charges.
From april 2019 to december 2019 we paid the remaining emi's. After that we called to byjus finance team to please settle the penalty charges and close the issue for march 2019 emi. But surprisingly told that we are due for 2 emi's for the months of march 2019 and april 2019. After so many calls also they stated as we are due for 2 emis's. We sent april 2019 statement screenshot in the whatsap of some of byjus team. We wrote mails to proiritysupport of byjus also but there is no progress from byjus team.in the month of january also we are penalised 600 rs.
Everyday byjus finance team calling me and my husband to pay the amount and everyday we are complaining about this and asked them to update the april payment.
We already told to byjus finance team, that after receiving confirmation in the form of mail we are ready to pay the amount. Please help us to resolve the issue as soon as possible. We don't want to prolong this issue.

I have registered in byju's today the 13th january, 2020. But due to unavoidable circumstances, i have to request you to please cancel my registration with transaction id byjus[protected], amount paid rs.5650/- order date :[protected] at 19:34:33. My email address is [protected]@gmail.com

Ref: my previous unresolved complaint dated 18th november 2019

Id: 2513475

Sir,

The complaint mentioned above is not yet resolved.

They offered me a refund of the amount if i return the product. I asked them to refund my amount first and close the concerned loan but they did not respond to that mail. I asked them to receive the loan payment status from their finance partner (Iifl) to ensure that i have been making the payment regularly.

I am still receiving threatening sms of legal action for nonpayment of emis but i have been regularly making the payment. I am also receiving calls although i have been blocking those calls. I have asked the byju's people pretending as iifl recovery agent or officers not to communicate by mobile or telephone. There are many documentary evidence of cheating and fraudulent calls from byju's in the past and i have informed them about the issue. Byju's customer support service is also requested not to communicate by mobile of the telephone so that those frauds can be avoided.

Byju's is still sending smss to threaten me and that is causing tremendous emotional stress in my family. They are asked to provide me the loan sanctioned letter and loan status. But they remain silent and not yet making transparent and honest communication. I have been claiming that the sanctioned loan is illegal. But byju's is not able to clarify my issue.

In the past, i have raised the issue that byju's employees are involved in the forging of my signature to register nach mandate in npci which i have canceled through the destination bank. They have no answer to those illegal practices. There are many documents of evidence of fraudulent call recordings, smss, emails, whatsapp messages.

Please resolve the issue and ensure honest, and transparent communication. The issue of illegal loan is raised in rbi. The issue of two consecutive mandate registration with the forged signature of mine is also raised in npci regulated by rbi. It is my moral duty to inform the income tax department that an sme loan was sanctioned illegally for purchase of a byju's product (Order no:[protected]. Otherwise, the automated system of the income tax department will issue an inappropriate itr-4 form in my e-filing it account. I will have to submit the balance sheet of my nonexistent business which will create many inconvenience and difficulties to me and i need to refer the iifl loan linked to my pan. All these possible concerns were intimated to mr vishnu khanna, senior academic counsellor, byju's in the month of august' 2019. Iifl has reported my loan as personal loan in npci and the cibil record is showing my loan as a personal loan

I, therefore, request byju's to be sensitive to all the issues i have mentioned in all my emails, to be honest, and transparent to the customer to avoid unnecessary inconveniences. This is my gentle request to byju's to resolve the issue in true spirit.

Regards,

Ramen kumar bharali

I had taken the buju's disney edition for grade 2 for my child.

The tab worked alright for the first one month. So the cancellation term of 15 days was over.

Since the last 2 months the tab is not working, there are sd card errors for which i have personally wasted several hours with their technical team to resolve it over the phone.

Eventually, the sd card was replaced. Even the replaced sd card did not work and showed the same error.

Since then, i had reconnected with the counselor who had visited our home to sell the product. She assured me that the needful will be done.

I took me over 2 weeks to get her to answer my call in the first case. After that she has stopped answering my calls or responding to my smses or messages on whatsapp.

The assigned mentor also never calls when she commits to do so.

In short, i feel really duped and have demanded full refund. I have lost faith in them as a brand and so not wish to put up with this for years now.

Kindly help me to get my complete refund.

I get a call from byjus the learning app on 1 dec. 2019. They convinced us a educational counselling to be done on 8 dec. So we agreeed, in the session of 4 hrs. The sold their product by assuring us that if we are not satisfied we can return it. But now when i contact them don't listen and keep on procrastinating and argues. The are not ready to accept that i am not satisfied. And don't ready to process return

I got a call from Byjus stating that I have been shortlisted for the role of learning and development specialist. The very next day I was scheduled for an interview through Zoom app and it went well. At the end, they told me that I will get a call from HR as soon as possible. But I didn’t get any call for the next two weeks. I mailed them regarding my job status. They told me to wait for one more week. But also I didn’t get any reply. I mailed them again. They told me to wait and for three more days and told me that they will give me an update. Its been a month now. I’m mailing them everyday and they are so irresponsible. They don’t even have the courtesy of replying back to the mails. Because of their irresponsible behaviour, I lost many opportunities. I thought I will get an opportunity since they told me to wait. Now I regret believing them. Dear Byjus people, please have some courtesy over people. Thank you.

Dear Byjus,

I made a purchase of you're product based on a very again marketing by your salesperson who visited my home saying they will give counseling.

I felt very pressured and went for a purchase. However when I researched online, I learnt about how I was duped.

I immediately within a few hours followed your cancellation policy guidelines and sent an email for cancellation and refund.

I had spoken with your customercare the next day who filled up the cancellation form and asked me to share the following details to [protected]@byjus. I did the same as instructed and also copied to [protected]@byjus as well. I am sharing the details below by removing my child name.

Since I cancelled within the deadline if 24 hours, I hope the money would be refunded into my account as soon as possible.

It's been more than 48 hours and I am waiting for some action. I have not received an be update and looking at all the complaints about byjus in this website, I am really wire worked now.

The form no: TNL[protected].
Course: Std 3rd to 7th
Student's name: withheld for privacy.
My contact no: withheld for privacy

Education counselor name mentioned in the form: Shashank
Employee email: shashank.[protected]@byjus.com
Employee id: TNL21818150

I was not provided with any receipt except for a form. In the form, the employee ID was also mentioned wrongly. And later provided correct one when I asked the salesperson.next day.

The two people who visited me:. The name of one of them is Nishant and email they provided me is nishant.[protected]@byjus.com

I hope the money would be refunded into my account as soon as possible.

I have purchased byjus product approx. One month ago. The tablet that you have sent is lenevo tablet 7 inches which has pathetic battery life. It works only for 2-3 hours even though it has 10% charge. I have to carry my power bank all the time which is not feasible all the time. Please resolve my issue as soon as possible...
I really hope tablet that you guys have inventory is not refurbished ones. If this is the case its serious issue which has to be taken care of. Please check you inventory. I have been calling customer support for a while but to my disappointment nobody is willing to take the responsibility.

Dear byju,
I have taken the byjus pakage on[protected] during one of your team member has visited at our place for my child tanmay sharma.

During conversation i have paid 5800 amount with my debit card and she said rest payment will be deduct from my credit card on monthly basis as she has done herself the procedure.

But i have received my credit card bill they have charged rs 2921 (Interest, late fee charges).

For that daily i am talking from last 10 days with byju customer care no. ([protected]) and discussing with mentor but not getting the proper response.

As it is not my fault so requested, kindly immediately adjust above amount and start emi on monthly basis to avoid daily interest and late fees charges by hdfc bank.

Requested kindly

1) immediately start emi as daily interest charges is adding by bank which again will come in next billing cycle.
2) adjust extra charges of cost rs 2921/-
Which had been added by bank due to lumsum amount.

Regarding this i am continuously mail to press, supoort, [protected]@byjus.com but it very surprising and disgusting no reply is coming from your side.

Also i discussed with mentor and mailed to her but not replying and giving any answer.

Waiting of your very quick response...

Regards,
Sudhir sharma.

We bought byjus for our son of 7 years as sales person said try for 15 days, if you don't like you can return everything and everything will be refunded. I said ok let's try.

Then i asked sales person to extend the trial period to 2 months as 15 days doesn't give clear idea whether to continue for 3 years or not.

Sales person told me ok he will request his team for the same and will get it done. Nobody contacted me, i asked again, he told me he will speak again but i understood after 15 days that he didn't request anyone about this as when i talked to mentor, she said nobody requested for extension and extension is against policy.

Now, i want my money back and sales guy is simply cheater and must be fired immediately.
