I ordered a asus 6z (Od[protected] during the big billion sale for rs 25, 999 on 30 september, 2019 on an office address. First of all, flipkart delivered the product on a national holiday (2nd october, 2019). I had to travel 24km just to receive the product. Secondly, it was a defective product. From the moment i turned on the device, it kept restarting, showing green and pink lines on the screen, overheating on charging for only 10 minutes, not detecting sim card, not connecting to wi-fi, not displaying imei number, not switching on at times, etc.
I filed a replacement for the same on 3rd october, 2019, and the technician came and without resolving my issue, rejected my replacement. I filed another replacement request on 4th october 2019, and the technician approved the replacement as the device is irreparable even after updating and formatting and troubleshooting several times. The replacement was brought on 7th october 2019, but the delivery boy refused to replace the phone as the device was not displaying imei number from within the settings. Although, the phone had an original imei sticker on the back (Which is tamperproof) as well as on the box. But the delivery boy refused to take the replacement. At the same moment i contacted flipkart executive, who advised me to cancel this request and place another one mentioning imei issue. He assured me that he had processed the cancellation request and it shall be effective in 24 hrs. Since that day, flipkart has been sidelining me and not providing a replacement.
I have regularly been contacting them through flipkart, twitter and facebook but they have not been providing replacement or resolution. At times, they don't bother to even reply and employees fake update the issues and the status of issues as resolved even without resolving it.
Flipkart only guarantees replacement or return within 10 days of receipt of the product, that is, 12th october 2019. They are forcefully trying to use up the replacement period. They are not ready to give any written statements, emails, sms etc. About the status of the request or the return process.
Earlier the resolution date provided to me was 11th oct 7:00 pm but no resolution was provided, now there resolution date has been extended to 15th october stating that the complaint filed earlier was not regarding the replacement of the product. This is despite the fact the entire issue mentioned above was shared with the customer care executives and floor supervisors several times on 7th october.
We do not have any written confirmation/guarantee that the phone will be replaced.
Request the concerned party to help in getting a fair and quick resolution to the problem.
Also, please find attached the screenshots of the number of complaints i have registered and responses from flipkart.

This is to inform you that i booked a ticket for a flight I5 592, PNR NO N2DI2J for 2nd July 2020 from flipkart travel but i could not board this flight. I would like to bring your attention that i made flight cancellation request accidentally on 25th July but i called flipkart travel team helpline no[protected] immediately and requested the advisor to stop this ticket cancellation request. The Advisor who assisted me did assure that my booking would not get cancelled. I checked booking status in flipkart application after 24 hrs and it was showing scheduled. It never showed cancelled. I again contacted flipkart to ensure that my booking should exist and i was confirmed that booking was not cancelled. No one told me that my ticket booked was cancelled. I was not sent any cancellation message neither by flipkart nor by Air Asia. I was under an impression that my ticket was booked but on the day of the Journey when i reached the Air port and tried to board the flight there i was denied and confirmed that my ticket got cancelled by Air asia. I was bemused and did not know what to do as the flight was super urgent for me. I want flipkart to justify these below points-
1) Why i was mislead by the advisor about the booked ticket?
2) When the ticket got cancelled then why i was not notified by an e mail, msg or phone call?
3) When the ticket got cancelled then how come the status of the ticket showing scheduled rather then cancelled in flipkart application. I have shared the screen shot as well?
4) After calling repeatedly every time i was given wrong information why?
5)Even the ticket was cancelled then why still i did not get the refund of the remaining rest of the amount?
This is the first time i booked a journey ticket from flipkart and my first impression was very disappointing. I want to know how flipkart is going to compensate this?
