[Resolved]  Pepperfry — Fake expired products

Try placing an order on Cash on Delivery using pepper points and they would not allow you redeem your pepper points, pepper points can be redeemed only with prepaid orders ...why? Sites
like pepperfry.com are luring gullible people at large by throwing 500 discounts coupons with minimum purchase of 1000 which they call as pepper points, now let me for benefit of everyone caution people not to get lured by such deals and companies, they will take money from you and will not process order. People must understand that such sites maybe running with sole intent of fraud and not to honor orders. If they are so clean and honest why do not they allow people to use their discounts wit h cash on delivery orders so people build up trust with them over a time, but here maybe they have different agenda like they did it with me. Yesterday I have placed an order with them and used this discount with it since i am new to them i thought to test them first by using Cash on Delivery option but to my surprise they did not allow me redeem discount with Cash on Delivery, so i decided to give them a try and paid them online through netbanking and amount got debited from my bank account, after one makes a payment bank site moves you back to merchant site pepperfry here and i got a response on there page and I quote "Thank you! Your order is being processed and should get confirmed soon." After waiting for few hours patiently of confirmation email which never came in, I called there customer care help line and one of there agent name Sandy(which i am sure is a fake name too) said to me that she is escalating the same and should get resolved in next few hours, in between i also wrote an email and attached proof of my bank statement so to substantiate my claim even though there agent sandy refused it as she said bank statement is not required, I did it out of my own courtesy, since no one called me till late evening I called them up again and coincidentally same girl picked the phone and now she took a complete U turn and said that she never said it would be resolved in few hours and that it may take 48 hours now and hung up the phone on me. I wonder these agents who work for petty salaries have attitude and air to the like of bollywood filmstars - shame on them and surely comapny covering and protecting them and giving them covering or maybe they are trained such way so to toss people at large. People must also note that they should not get mislead by facebook apreciations and likes of such websites because on facebook one can make many account and keep appreciating there own company and at same time on facebook they have control to hide such post where people may be wanting to escalate there issues and experiences for public at large so to bring into notice of everyone practices adopted by such companies, so there facebook page would always keep them clean and customer friendly but reality maybe far different. I will surely forget about my money after few days with a very sour experience but i thought to help out many who may just get lured and place order with them only to feel cheated and save them from loosing there hard earned money.
What may i achieve out of this after all I can substantiate my review if anyone wants to check I just want to safeguard interest of many out there who may not suffer to hands of such companies/websites.
