HDFC Bank Smart Buy — Issues with hdfc smart buy refund

Address:411013
Website:offers.smartbuy.hdfcbank.com

I had booked a ticket from jammu to srinagar on 23rd may 2016.

Hdfc bank smartbuy ref no : [protected]

The booking status was shown to be pending and later i was told that the booking failed and the amount would be refunded to me withing 7 working days.

Since then i have called their customer support 'n' number of times. Each time i got only one response that the refund is under process and it will be done withing 7 working days. But the refund never came and today it's 13th june 2016 !

To check, i dropped a mail to [protected]@smartbuyoffers.Co and [protected]@goibibo.com. I got a response from goibibo, they said that the refund has already been processed on 26th may 2016, 3 days after the booking failure with the reference number gofldapi71bd[protected] !!!

Seems like somehow my money vanished into thin air between goibio to hdfc smart buy. I have used goibio a lot of times. Never had any issue with them regarding refunds. I can vouch for them. So the culprit has to be hdfc smart buy.

Not sure whether i will get my money back or not, but i am not going to recommend hdfc smart but to anyone.

Finally issue is resolved and I got my money back. But overall it was a very bad experience dealing with HDFC Bank Smart Buy due to poor customer support provided. Might have to thing a 100 time before dealing with them again.
