[Resolved]  India Today Book Club — Non receipt of free gifts

I have paid in full the amount Rs. 1099 in cash for which I was supposed to have been given 8 Music CDs produced by Music India, one Reebok T-shirt and One Bag. I received the Cds on 27th March. I tried to log on to the website intimated by India Today group www.bookstoday.in/promos.htm, but could not. I tried calling teh land line number[protected] and was told the website is out of order and till the website is restored nothing can be done about the free gifts. I have been given a number but if the claim is not made within two months the claim is automatically invalidated. What can I do?

India Today Book Club — NON RECEIPT OF ITEMS FOR WHICH PAYMENT IS MADE

EXCHANGE OF REEBOK SHOES AND TRACK SUIT
I have purchased two sets of Reebok shoes and Track suit vide your invoice No.ORA[protected] ORDER No.OGA[protected] DATED 28.01.09 Login ID:1572308 Membership No.ITBC 09842308 and Invoice No.ORA[protected] Order No, OGA[protected] dated 27.01.09 Login ID No.1574320 Membership No.ITBC 09834320. The above items were sent in one packet through DTDC courier vide their reference No. B 51742744 dated 11.02.2009. I had sent one e-mail to you in this regard. As instructed by you I am returning the above four items for change of size. The shoe size should be Size No.6 (However I am sending a sketch of the Reebok shoe which is being used) for ladies. The track suit should be small one which should suit to girls of the age 15-16 years. Both the set of shoe and track suit should be of different colours.
Vide Invoice No.ORA[protected] order No.OGAC[protected] DATED 20.01.2009 I have purchased 16 CDs. In the invoice you have mentioned that I have to claim the gift of Air Ticket and Holiday voucher through net. But I am unable to do the same. A copy of the invoice is also enclosed. Kindly do the needful. An early action in this regard is highly appreciated.

Despite a lapse of about nine months,so far the company never bothered to give a satisfactory reply for my repeated reminders to them almost every day. The company is cheating people all over Indai which quite evident with the number of complaints received by you. This is the last resort to recover my money. Kindly do the needful to collect the money paid by me at the earliest.

Sir/Madam
I had through VPP purchased twice from india today book club bestseller. The offer claimed that free adidas bag worth Rs 499/- and free holiday voucher worth 5000/- will be sent after the VPP is accepted. The problem was that on logging at the site the membership no. and the invoice did not match due to which I was unable to claim the offer (both are given below)
What is the use of making such offer if it cannot be claimed.
You are requested to look into the matter.
With regards
Yours sincerely

Complete History of the world — paid through the credit card but product not received till date

It has been a month since the order was placed along with the payment of the History book and a free gift of reebok watch but till date nothing has conme and no information has been given.
I have received vide their invoice no.ORA[protected] only the world history book, reebok watch.

On speaking to them they have informed to log on their website bookstoday.in/promos.htm and claim free gifts by mentioning the unique identification number.

Unfortunately after trying several times it is not being logged and shows error in the identification number.

ITBC have failed in their commitments and have failed to deliver the freebies and now are giving excuse of logging on their sites for claiming the gifts. It is misleading and people are fooled after they have made the payment.

The matter is to be taken up seriously with them and ensure they fulfil their committments or pay the money back to me alonwith penalty and fine so that such things are not repeated in future.
I hv booked CDs worth Rs574.00 and got them by making payment thro my credit card, but i am unable to log on to the advised website Pl.help me to get the free gifts
