Flipkart Complaints & Reviews

I ordered for LG OPTIMUS 2x in "Letsbuy.com" . Bluetooth headset comes free with it. Got the package n opened it today. Shocked to find only the Bluetooth headset :( THE SMARTPHONE IS MISSING.. Letsbuy customer care is off today due to diwali.. Letsbuy.com shipped to my Madurai address thro' Aramex Parcel Service.. Aramex said they're not responsible.. Waitin to call letsbuy.com customer care tomo asap.. Have anyone encountered such problem while shopping in letsbuy.com..?

I had purchased "Harrison's Principles Of Internal Medicine (Volumes - 1 & 2) With DVD (Hardcover)" online from your store a few weeks back for a sum of Rs 8289 with free shipping. Now to my utter shock i find that the price of the book is only Rs.4895 in your website, and the price of the book at stores here is Rs. 4500. Now, i feel cheated by having purchased the overpriced book from your website. I would never like to commit the same mistake by shopping with you again. I advise you to restrain from putting up inflated prices and cheating others too. I need an explanation for such heavy pricing . Dr.Jaison Chacha Sunny. Kottayam, Kerala

Hi Sir/Maam,

I had ordered a Acer Aspire 4750z Laptop from Flipkart when I observed the following defects in it.

1. The CD/DVD drive is not closing properly leaving a wide gap.
2. The pre installed linux boots with an error.
3. The casing of LCD is loose.

It has been two weeks and I haven't received any confirmation from Flipkart side regarding my replacement of the model.
Can the Consumer Forum help me in Escalating this issue.

Ordered This product from flipkart for diwali, delivered after 8 business days

through ARAMEX courier,

Inquired the reason for delay (courier guy replied that "Sir we have thousands

of such pacakages of Flipkart at our VASHI Branch, But we deliver only when

flipkart forces us to do saying that it is urgent, And your package was at OUR

OFFICE FOR 4 DAYS until flipkart forced us saying it is URGENT." )

I complained regarding late delivery, they replied "Sir we are sorry for the

late delivery, we have been receiveing many complaints regarding the ARAMEX

courier. It is not only with you." (If THEY KNOW THE COURIER IS FAULTY, THEN

WHY DID THEY SHIPPED IT THROUGH THAT COURIER.)

After i opened the package found that FREE 4GB card was not present and

moreover that Camera was not working.

When i requested the replacement , he told that as per procedure you have to

call our TECHNICAL SUPPORT TEAM for troubleshooting, ( IF PRODUCT IS NOT

WORKING THEN WHY CANT THEY DIRECTLY REPLACE IT). "Sir , as per our policies of

flipkart, you have to first check for troubleshooting and if it doesnt work,

then we will arrange a pick up and check it in our office and still it doesnt

work then we will ensure a replacement."

When i posted this review in flipkart, they deleted it immediatley along with

my rating.

After my complaints they still insist me to do the troubleshooting but still

the camera shows E32 ERROR and shuts down after 5-10 seconds of startup.

When i requested the free 4GB card, they said the " SIR, IN THE BOX 4GB CARD

IS THE ONE WHICH WE MEANT TO HAVE SAID WHEN WE MEANT FREE CARD." (Am i a dumb

sitting here, that i dont know what is free and what is in the box)

This was the only reason that i found it a good deal to purchase, and now they

say that we never had such offer ever placed in flipkart , I have printed a

page of it, and requested them to see the same, but they refuse telling that

it must be some technical error.

Though some shops sell the camera at 200 bucks costlier but you can directly

verify it there itself for ny defect and dont have to wait for 1-2 months

after payment for the product to come.

RELIABILITY AND TRUST AND SPEEDY SERVICE are the 3 foundation on which any

ORGANISATION WORKS and sorry to say
"" FLIPKART LACKS ALL THE THREE ""

Hi, I ordered for a Cowon iAudio E2 Mp3 Player 4Gb (Black) and my order id is LSB-484436. I ordered it on 14/10/2011 morning and it hasn't been dispatched yet!
I am very disappointed with their service, it is very unprofessional of them.

It has already been 9 days since i placed the order (LSB-484436) and i promptly cleared all the payment related problems 6 days ago and my payment has already been verified for more than 6 days and my product hasn't been dispatch yet!!

From last 5 days, The status of my product(LSB-484436)is showing "ready to ship"!.

I am constantly mailing them for last 6 days and always same reply(after 1-2 days of sending mail) : "will be shipped and delivered as priority!!". I think they don't understand the meaning of Priority.

Why are they not shipping it?

Their service agreement clearly declare "4-7 days for delivery!!" and now it has already been 9 days since order and 6 days since payment confirmation,

I wish if they Either ship it ASAP or cancel the order and refund my amount if they cannot abide by service agreement.

I am a frequent E-Buyer and has bought multiple things from E-bay and flipkart and never had such horrific experience.

FREE DIWALI ASSURED GIFT as promoted on LETSBUY.COM – NOT DELIVERED

I ordered Canon Laser Printer – Order #LSB-460357 Date: 08/10/2011, Printer delivered but no free gift, I have mailed several times about this on their customer care but all in vain. Called their 24×7 call support number – but nobody picks phone even in the mid day time.

i have received wrong shipment after 10 days of delay and making full balance payment as suggested by customer care for alternate product i required .

Now this is enough , you guys are really unprofessional and discourteous for customer's care , i have tried to reach customer care by many ways but there was no reply despite of my several emails to company , it took always 15 minute of time to get response from helpline number

MY call was again dropped by your customer care person without any correct information .


and i am going to fill consumer court complain againts Letsbuy.com (eTree Marketing Pvt Ltd) now for this mental stress , i will also make put my this mail thread on several consumer forum .


IT was my BIGGEST EVER MISTAKE TO MOVE FROM EBAY TO LETS BUY.COM

Hi I am siavkumar TK, I just placed an order in Letsbuy.com Online shopping wesite and the order number is LSB-437419. I cancelled the order on October 2nd. I was promised that the refund will be provided within 7-10 days. Today the date is October 19th. Still I didn't get my refund. Whenever I call the customer care I don't get proper response and they tell the refund has been processed and I will receive the refund. I am really fedup with this. This is the worst company I saw ever not issuing the refund for the cancelled order. This guys act fast while debiting the money from customer account but they will not refund the money at all if the order is cancelled.

Respected sir,
Myself Satendra singh. Sir i have ordered to the website flipkart.com for eight number of books on different subjects.
All the eight books sent by the company in three times to me with full details and name of the books on the envelope of the
delivery. After one month company resent me a books among those of sent already while I did not give any order. There were no details about the book besides order number and total amount Rs. 385 on the envelope of the delivery. So, I receive it from the courier person and pay the amount but when i opened it I was surprised to see the book because I had already received this book. So I ask customer care to inform about the error. The customer care executive said that there was a system updater problem.
Sir I have no need this book. So please help me. Sir I have all the delivery records with me.

I ordered a Samsung galaxy S2 on September 1 2011. The amount got debited from my account and it was not reflected in their site. So immediately wrote to the customer care regardinjg the same. After a series of mails they said tehy cant do anything and i have to contact my bank for it. Then i called up my bank and they said they already sent them the money . With this i called flipkart and they verified and they said they will modify the records as tehy found the payment done and that i will get the product in two days. After two days i called up again just to find that the records werent modified. Same thing happened when i called back after two days again. Then i said i wanted to talk to the manager and he apologised for the inconvenience and told me it will be recitified immediately. Then i checked my order in flipkart again it was changed to order placed on october 3rd and payment was made on that day . I have no idea how they can change the order date . But then i didnt press it as i wanted the product in hand. On 5th October i received a mail saying that the shipment of my order was received at flipkart office in bengaluru at 4:11 PM. 6th was unfortunately a holiday in bangalore . So was expecting to get it atleast by 7th or 8th. Its 10th now and i call up again they first said i will get a call from the delivery person by 2:30 in the afternoon. Didnt get any so called again. They said they just got the order at the bangalore facility. Then what was the mail i got five days back ? Now they are promising that i will get it within 24 hours and they are digging into this. Am fed up ! Please you can just walk up to the nearest store and buy yourself a new one instead of toiling with Flipkart

Dear All,

I have Order a Induction cooker from Online Shopping Lets Buy.com, They provide me really a Bogus product, of Bad Quality and they refuse to Replace it, after the product sold out , they are refusing to replace or any kind of service. Such a non-sense service they have, i have never felt. All product they have must be second handed or Bogus type.

Think twice before any buy from Letsbuy.com . I am guaranteeing you, you will suffer for the service, because once product sold, they will avoid you.

Yes! that's true. Received a used phone for the price of a brand new phone. The cost of my idiocy is INR 19,999 only!!
1. No original package. Packed like someone wanted to dispose it off.
2. No user manual
3. There were images of somebody else from Pune!
4. Damaged headphone with disgusting lint and dust in the ear buds.
5. The battery looks like a cheap duplicate of the original battery. It was installed in the phone. The original package does not have battery installed.
6. Lot of scratches on the screen guard and on the backside chin.
7. After inserting my sim and connecting to the data services. it started sending something to the previous owner. I think it's a mobile tracking service. (Stolen?)
8. Made a request for a replacement.
9. No answer from letsbuy. That's where letsbuy stands.
10. The world's worst customer service. Nobody picks up the call. Had to try 100 times to get somebody on the line. There is no ticketing system. Have to repeat my problem n number of times to each and everybody who comes on line.
11. My first and the last experience. Will never buy anything from letsbuy
12. What happened to 45 days replacement guarantee? In papers only?
13. Is letsbuy.com a reputed online store or just a broker who sells second hand products?
14. May I conclude this as a pure cheating or do I still hope for something miracle to happen from your end? I need your answer so that I can concentrate on my other works instead of posting this on all the websites.
15. I have lots o[censored]sed electronics at home. You may contact me for selling the same to many bakras. India is full of bakras like me. We can do a good business (cheating).
Thank you so much for sending me a used and tested product against my order number 415826.

I ordered a reliance HD DTH from letsbuy.com order number lsb-352260 and paid Rs.2590/- and got a coupon instead of DTH box after a week time. After enquiring with letsbuy.com they said I have to book installation with reliance with this coupon and reliance will provide DTH equipment and installation.
I booked for installation on 9th September installation request reference number 5595990 and 5636783. I keekp following up with Reliance DTH and letsbuy.com but nobody turned-up to provide equipment and installation. Finally without any choice I took a connection with different service provider.
Since reliance didn’t provide equipment with this coupon, this coupon is merely paper for me hence want to return to letsbuy.com but it seems letsbuy made money by saleing some fake coupon and now not responding.

I already fall on trap with letsbuy.com and lost Rs.2590/- but I want to alters others to not fall on this website’s trap.
Copying my mail communication with letsbuy.com and reliance DTH.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Subject :- Different/wrong model of Fabiano RO Water Purifier


This is in reference to order no. Order # LSB-346733 placed on dated
31/08/11 for Fabiano RO-111 Water Purifier of RS.5372, which had been
delivered at my mailing address on dated 07/09/11.

It was very upsetting /painful that said item was differed as I placed
the order it was come to my notice when I called to RO installation
person who clearly deny that it is only RO and in which not existing
UV System then I move to lets buy site to see the item order display
it was really differed as I given the order

Hence I attached in first mail 4 snap of delivered Item and 1 screen shot of
displayed item on site.

In this regard I hade made a complaint on lets buy customer care having no. CC[protected]on dated 12/09/11 and they assure me that we will pickup the
Wrong model item within 24 to 48 hour but said item had been picked by them
on dated 17/09/11 from my mailing address and i contact to Letsbuy.com customer care service dated 18/09/11 and provide the BLUE DART AWP No.[protected] and they told me said product will be reshipped within 24 to 48 hour when i don't get any mail and message regarding the reshipment till 20/09/11 then i again contact to customer care they say again it will be reshipped within 24 to 48 hour

then I was again mailed to lets buy .com on dated 22 and 26 september’11
and their response is as before we will reshipped your order item within 24 to 48 hour
I am really very puzzled and I request you to please take the action against fraudulent online site and refund my order item amount with compensation

Hi everyone,

please dont buy big products like AC,FRIDGE,TV...etc.i am telling this with my personal experience. i have ordered Samsung LED 7 series tv(order no :279716) on 5th of AUGUST.
i have paid 78,150- . they ask me to send ID proof and bank statement. i send on the same day. they hold my money for 1 week. after 1 week, when i contact the customer care, they are telling "they dont have that product , we r suggesting alternative product by additionally paying 8800- ." . i was agree to pay for that. the alternate product is samsung 6 series tv with samsung sound bar and 2 3d glasses ..etc. i received only TV on 7th of september not the samsung sound after calling 20 to 30 times to bullshiit customer care.actually i am staying in USA . i am waking upto 1AM in the morning(its my problem). now, i am calling every day for samsung sound bar and 3D glasses. still they are telling wait for 24 hours. every day ,they r telling same shiit . i ask them the new invoice for my order. because i was paid additional 8800- for new product. they send the old one. they r killing my [censored]ing time . even the supervisor Mr.Narender also cheating me. when i talk to him 2 times. he told me "he will take care my product " . i asked him my new invoice . he told me " u will get in 30min". 4 days happen still didnt received my products and invoice. today, i called , he told me the same story . i told him " i will be on line . send my invoice rite now" . he told me you will get in 15 min. i believed this time . but they send me the old invoice to my mail. what the heck they r thinking .....my product also still not received. when i talk to him, you will get in 24 hours. how can i believe ?? because they didnt send invoice in 30min......i forget about my product. today is 28th september .still not received my product. almost 2 months .....still not received. i am telling the fact that " they simply making chain business by holding money , fraud customer care (even supervisor ) . they just trained customer care "to tell 24 hours to wait to get response i am forwarding to respective team". in this 2 months," i was talked to almost 15 to 20 customer care people" . same routine shiit they are talking. i ask them to contact to your supervisor . they did 2 times. even "super visor also telling the same thing....but "he well trained by telling i will take personal care your order". they simply hold my money for 2 months (86950-) for making intrest . guys you know when i check online in the site , the price for that TV 86450- .they charged 500- more. when i talk to customer care on the same day , they told me the "same routine shiit i am forwarding your request to respective team" . i will see this week and than file the case against LETSBUY . they r cheating by below facts

1) they dont have products what ever they r showing in the site . they have to put "out of stock". but, they didnt do for all products. after buying the product , they will contact after some days and tell "we dont have that product".please buy alternative .

2) doing some chain business by holding customer money ( eg, my order will get 7 to 10 business days . today it will be 2 months , still not received my product ).

3) they cheated by charging RS.500- more. i was asked refund but not received yet ( they told 7 days to get refund). 15days happend..no refund.

4) customer care is very poor. they just tell wait for 24 hours to get response. every day same shiit i am listening from 2 months. it depends on managment .(i called almost 100 times from USA to india to bullshiiit customer care )

5) even supervisor also not telling the facts. he is lieing to me 2 times. i dont know if supervisor is cheating, whom i contact Mr.CEO ??


6) shipping service is bullshiiiit (safe express). forget about it ( i called so many times ). they gave me some docket number. i checked not updating from 4 days. i called they r telling wait for 24 hours .

7) i am still waiting for product from 2 months.

8) i need my invoice for my alternative product .but they r not sending it because they charged 500- more....
