sir...
i have a consignment which is sent from gurgaon branch to kerala on 9th feb 2010.bt i dnt get it yet.i contact almost all dtdc branches in india..bt nobody helped me.someone said that they missed a luggage from delhi airport.
it is my original passport and already two times i postponed my airticket..
sir..i need my parcel..plz help me..

on 27th of january 2010, i send an important documents through dtdc bf 830 BEML gate branch bangalore to srinagar(j &k) . it was due to reach on 30th. but delivery is not done till today(10th feb'10). i spoke to mrs Nagmani, mob no-[protected] but no satisfactory reply get. on cheking of the online record i was told that it is delivered on 30th jan , manifest no z 4122926. its surprising how they are maintaing manifest no. if the parcel was not delivered. on contacting srinagar branch of dtdc, initially they said courier is not deliverd and lying with them only. so i gave them some time but even after passing 7-8 days they didn't delivered.
i am afraid my parcel is even lost or what?? its really a shameful service. certainly dtdc should be dealth properly as per the law of the land.

I used DTDC Courier service from bangalore to send train tickets to my parents.
I Couried them only after getting confirmation from the DTDC Agent that Courier will take max of 72 hours to deliver.
Courier number provided to me is B59193259. As the Courier didn't reach even after 5 days i called courier office to enquire.
Instead of giving me the details, the courier office people gave me the phone numbers of the courier offices near to the destination and are asking me to track. So I had to track my own courier by calling all the offices inspite of paying 40/-RS for 2 tickets(2 Sheets). The courier reached only after 6 days(took more time than normal post). Due to this I was not able to send tickets to my parents on time.
DTDC doesn't act like a Courier service any more.

This is reference to the consignment no. Z97780586

The company has lost our important consignment which has most valueable documents which is very difficult to make it again.

We had contacted Mr. Rohit many times almost 40 to 50 times through Phone at his Delhi office, he has confirmed us that he has sent the same back to J& K office. But after confirming at J&K office they replied that they had not received any courier from their end.

On 16th June I had mailed to [protected]@dtdc.com copy of the mail has been attached below but I have not recieved any reply from their end. What is alarming is that the company is not owning up to it's responsibilities and is not even making an attempt to trace the culprits. This company is also not responding to my queries appropriately. I have been forced to come to you for help.

Please do the needful

My brother has sent courier from Latur on 29/01/10 docket no t36867656.
It was supposed to reach me within 2 days.
I am doing follow-up with DTDC guys since 4 days.
They are giving each others number.
None of them even bother to call back and tell the status of courier.
This is such a pathetic service.

Dear Sir,

This is a complaint against the DTDC courier service, West Tambaram, Chennai. It was the worst customer service I had ever faced. I had sent an important document from MCC, Chennai to Delhi, CGO complex on 21st, Jan, 10. It was an application for NIFT college which was to be delivered by 23rd Jan, I was assured by the DTDC service that the parcel would be delivered within 24 hours i.e. by 22nd Jan, 10. I was not informed of the delay in shipment and had to call them up to enquire about the shipment on 23rd Jan, 10. No one responded properly, no one knew how to speak English (which is funny), instead of responding to me, they kept chatting amongst themselves and at last they provided an incorrect information that the parcel had been delivered. I again had to call up DTDC courier, New Delhi, there the service was excellent - proper response, calm and patient; and I was informed that the shipment has not yet reached Delhi. I had to call up the Tambaram, Chennai office again which was a horrible experience everytime, I had to shout at them just to make them listen to me and they just told me to contact customer care. The customer care again was another nightmare, the lady just told me its not there problem that it was delayed. It was not the delay or the fact that I was not informed of delays that I'm complaining against but yes I do complain against the horrible customer service provided by the Chennai team.

Hi,

I am supposed to receive a parcel from my parents from Kolkata. It was sent on 11th of January 2010. But its 21st today and till now I have not received the consignment. Even after repeated calls and also lodging a complaint with them, they kept on harassing with improper and misleading details. When somehow I got the number of the Thiruvanmiyur, Chennai Branch Manager he initially said that they have not received it from the guindy office. But later after I started chasing them he said its not their responsibility to deliver things. Its the responsibily of the regional office to send the parcels on time. And he was very rude in his behaviour. He was very indifferent towards my issue and was behaving as if he was not at all bothered if I get that parcel or not. When I asked them to give me in written if they have lost my consignment or not, he said he wont give that and simply gave an email address to raise a complaint.
This is the most irresponsible and really unehical courier service I have ever come across. They are playing with the customers and making them fool.
Please do the need ful. My details are as follows :

My parents had sent me a parcel containg articles from Kolkata on 18 Jan, 2010. After i received the parcel on 20 Jan, 2010 in Delhi, i found the weight of the parcel was much lighter. As i was aware of the articles inside, when i opened i found that the parcel has already been opened and then repacked. During collection i only feel the weight was light, but to my nightmare the stupid DTDC who boast about their services has already opened it and repacked it by removing the items. Previusly i thought that DTDC was reliable but after this incident they are the most fraud courier companyavailable in India. . People can't rely on them and send items as they only believe in money. Customer has no value to them. So suffered customers like us would spread the word of mouth to stop using DTDC services and prevent our parcels from going to the hands of the thieves.

Sub. : Non Delivery of courier Through the DTDC Couries Service.

Dear Sir,
My brothers send my international placement document through DTDC Courier, through Amravati Branch on 28th December ‘2009 for Hariharnanda Gurukulam, Balighai, Puri. I have to submit this document to placement agency before 8th of January. But I have not received the courier from DTDC, when my brother enquired DTDC, Amravati branch about the delivery of courier the Branch Manager shown the following status on internet and told that the courier was already delivered to addressee on 2nd January ‘2010.

Consignment Details...
Shipment No.: T37199009 Reference No.: N/A Booked by: AMARAVATI (MH), NAGPUR On: Monday, December 28, 2009 No of Pieces: 1 Status: DELIVERED Last Scanned: Saturday, January 02, 2010 @ 1320 Hrs At : PURI, 752002 Received By: SIGN

When I inquired the DTDC Bhubneshwar Branch, they provided me phone number of Puri Branch, but the DTDC agent at Puri Mr. Baliarsingh responding irresponsibly, he has giving contradictory statement sometime he is telling someone came from your Ashram and received the courier and next time he is telling that the mentioned area is not coming in his service area so he returned back the courier to my home address, still it not received on my home address also.

Now 19 days over, but still DTDC Bhubneshwar and Puri are not giving me status of my courier, where it is? Sir if I will loose this opportunity due to severe lacking and negligence of DTDC personnel I will loose INR 8, 00,000/-, which I will get through this placement. Since 8 days I am in regular in contact with DTDC Bhubneshwar, Puri and Amravati who will bear this additional telephone cost and stress I am going through.

Sir, please look into the matter and give me justice. In hope to getting justice from your end.

With best regards.
