Indiatodaybook Club — non receipt of benetton sunglass | |
India today book club is cheating peoples I do not know why we educated people get trapped by these reputed companies like India today I received a email from pay Rs 799 for 16 cds of sur and taal and also get a benetton sunglass free and also pay Rs 300 as handlng charges. I paid and received VPP. it was nicely packed Persuming that sunglass must be inside I received VPP but when I opened it sunglass was not there. I complained go Mr Iftiaq on toll free number. he asked me to pay Rs 500 more as handling charges for sunglass. I told him that it was free and it should have been despatched alognwith CDs. but he asked me to complaint through email. I sent complaint but no reply received. I India Today is a big CHEATER they are not telling any hidden cost, otherwise people would not get into their trap. I paid money only for a reputed sunglasses. I have nothing to do with CDs. I shall move to Consumer Court once I get a reply from them Was this information helpful? | |

Dear All,
I am not surprised reading complaints for indiatoday. I am going to file a case in consumer court against them. I advise people not pay in advance for any item from any online shopping merchants. I also faced hard time with indiatoday. I made an order Reebok kit. They deducted Rs.3198 on the same day when they took order, but order was delivered after one month and to my surprise Reebok track suit was missing from the parcel. I returned that to the same courier man. On that day day itself i made a request for refund with them. They took around two months to tell me the shocking news that the order was already delivered and they could not make refund to me. I described everything but they refuse to accept anything. It made me believe that really they are making fool out of people. Now i am planning to file a case in consumer court. I will make them pay for their deeds. I request all who has been cheated by them to make forum on internet and fight cases in cases in consumer court against them.

Dear All,
I totally agree with you. India today is a cheat! I received an offer e-mail which stated that on purchasing a 16 CD pack of 'SUR SAAZ AUR TAAL' there will be Benetton sunglasses for free worth Rs. 3999/-. I sent the relevant DD with necessary documents such as the copy of the offer e-mail etc and after a few days received the CD pack but without the sunglasses. When I contacted India today, I was told that I would need to send another DD of Rs. 499/- as courier and handling charges for the 'free' sunglasses. I agreed and sent the DD of Rs. 499/- which I thought would still be a good offer for the exclusive Benetton sunglasses.
I was little more lucky than you all that I received the sunglasses, not one but two!!! But to my surprise, both of them are duplicate sunglasses and definately not original benetton sunglasses (verified at benetton stores). They are duplicate sunglasses of very poor quality and it will definately affect any persons eyesight i[censored]sed them.
I have all the necessary e-mails sent and received between us as proof and I have also preserved the sunglasses along with the copy of the bill/invoice which I received along with the sunglasses. I usually dont get lured with such offers received on e-mails but I thought India today would be reputed and would not be such ! I am willing to sue them as I have proof and I dont want other people to fall in their trap.

Today I received a mail from India Today that Benetton sunglass is free only you have to pay Rs 599 as a handlling charges so by reading this type of complaints from the customers so how can I beleive that I get the goggle by paying Rs.599.

I don't know about you all but I receibed my order of sunglasses within 15 days of my purchase. A pair of Benetton glasses for about Rs.1500/-. I and my neighbour both have ordered and we received the package at the same time.The pair was cool and am wearing it ever since.The reason I'm here's that I've received another mail saying I can get the same pair of sunglasses for only Rs.599/- now... what the hell??...then why'd I pay 1500 earlier ...???...neway the sunglasses are pretty fine so no qualms...and also I can order another pair and pay by "CASH ON DELIVERY"(COD) so maybe I'll take one for my brother...should see... only thing I'm confused about is...They are cool and all but...ARE THEY REALLY BENETTON??????...

It is time some lawyer among you take Indiatoday to court. They are big cheaters. When they know how to get the money and send the parcels they should also automatically send the gifts. Why they should be claimed through a process only a superman can find out. Spending 2 hours on the net going though various sites I am not able to get to them.
Though I have purchased so many books, most of them duplicate beacuse of their offer, I have never even once have seen their invisible free gifts.
I wll be very happy if some one sues them.
