On 30th of May 2010 i have received my camcorder but i never got the above promised gifts sofar. I have contacted the India Today Book Club and i got no valid response sofar. The Unique number they quoted is never worked and their phone number is useless. I have made several attempts and wrote e-mails to them but never got any constructive answer sofar. Overall, i have been cheated by the company very wisely. I request you to please treat my statements as a compliant and lodge the case against Living Media India Limited - India Today Book Club. Further, As per the limited understanding i have about the law, this case will attract the provision of MRTP act and as well as Consumer Proterction Act. MRTP Act - Forced Sellling, is an Unfair trade & Restrictive Trade Practice. Consumer Prtotection Act - Deficiency in Service, Flase Promises & Fradulent Committements at the time of selling the product Hope my voice will be heard and justice will be done at the earliest.

LIVING MEDIA INDIA LIMITED/INDIA TODAY BOOK CLUB — Cheated on Gift promises
I cant believe that the company like India today is cheating public with free offers.I booked AGATHA CHRISTIE set of 7 DVD and was promised some good free gifts.
But when I received the invoice, there was no free gift. They asked to log on to some site with unique number. The site kept on complaining about wrong unique id.
When I called up the customer service, it took 15 min before someone can pick up the call. They gave another unique number and told to try after 24 hours. After 24 hour, it was still giving same problem of not correct unique id.
My invoice is ORA[protected]
