I-CAD Overseas / icadvisas.com Complaints & Reviews

Icad vias told me that they will place me in canada but later they informed that i need to clear ielts with score of 7.0 in all, i tried 03 times but unable to get required band of 7.0. They are not refunding my money back. As i have written i tried 03 times & unable to the required band.

Then return my money.

Eslecially mirza is very cheap guy & cheater also.

I have paid all in all around 65 k in 02 installments.

Hi team

Please be informed that i got registered with icad services on 22/03/2016 in brigade road bangalore where icad services consultant ayesha convinced me stating that within 6 month from the date of registration i will get the pr for canada and didn't explained me about the ielts exam in details just send the evaluation report through mail for which she asked me to pay rs.1500 and i got my evaluation report issued on 016.

On 21/03/2016 i received again mail from ayesha stating that i am eligible to migrate to canada on pr visa but i have to pay onetime payment of rs. 9000 where i will get the discount but if i pay later then i have to pay more then the discounted amount. I agreed and paid the onetime payment using my debit card.

Later she assigned me the case manager whose name was abdul muqeet located in hyderabad. He explained me about the process and when i asked about ielts he explained me in details as how much i have to score according to the evaluation report. Also he informed me that i should book the date according to my convenience and informed that when i am confident enough to give the ielts then only book the slot so i booked the slot in the month of september and in the same month ielts result came where i scored 6 in writing and listening 6.5 in speaking and reading 4 so abdul muqeet my case manager requested me to take again the ielts and informed that 5 is not enough score for reading. Later he told me to drop the mail stating that you have to reappear for ielts as reading score is less and mention the approximate days as when you will be prepared for the next slot of ielts exam. I dropped the mail for the month of december and he approved through the mail. I booked the next slot for ielts on 016. I got the result of ielts on 19/12/2016 and i scored listening and writing 6 speaking 7 and reading 5. When i shared the result with abdul muqeet he suggested me that he will try from his end if any province in canada who can accept these scores but later he requested my to reappear for the ielts exam again then i told him that it's difficult for me to reappear again because i work for 6 days and i don't have time to prepare again so he suggested that he will try for different countries for me and also informed that if i don't want to continue with the services i can send the mail to icad support services for the withdrawal of service and they will help me with the refund.
Later i called again my case manager abdul muqeet to get the information if i am eligible for any other countries or any other province of canada. One lady whose name was ishika told me that abdul muqeet already left the organisation and she is looking after my process so i asked her why nobody called me and informed me about this but she had no answer for my query then i asked her about my eligibility for other countries or any province in canada but she doesn't had complete information about this so she asked me to share my all documents again to understand about my case so within a week time i shared all my documents my resume wes report evaluation report and ielts scores of me and my spouse but still she was unable to help me so i asked her what i suppose to do if i want to withdraw my services because i don't want to continue as you don't have proper information about immigration so she suggested me to raise a request for refund but before that she told me to talk to one lady who takes care of all the refund process when i spoke to that lady she replied so rudely and told that there will be no refund. Next day i spoke to other consultancies named visa avenue to get the idea about my query but they didn't respond me clearly because they want me to register with them first. The next day i called again to talk to ishika but someone else picked the call and informed that she is on leave so i asked his name and he told his name is aryan so i requested him to help me with my concern and also informed that past 4 to 5 month i am struggling because of this immigration process also i informed him about abdul muqeet and ishika so he apologies and stated that he will help me but he needs my information which i already shared with ishika so i told him no problem i will share the same with you again.

Next day when i called to get in touch with aryan about my case i found that there is another lady on call whose name was pooja told me that aryan is not available so i asked her where is ishika but she told them both are not available then she asked my name i told her my name so she informed me that she is the case manager for me. Then i asked her about my concern so she told i will check if you are eligible for any other countries and she put me on hold later she revert me and stated that to right now they are only dealing with canada so i asked her about province nomination service but she told me that they don't provide this service then i told her but in the icad website it shows you guys deal with it so she informed me later that yes we use to do it before but not now because we don't have anybody to take care of them so i asked herror what i suppose to do she told me that my service is already expired and my case should be close. I got very angry and asked her on what basis you want to close my case there was no delay from my end it's the problem from your end. I also explained that your staff who was taking care of my work doesn't knows anything about immigration process. So she denied accepting me and told me that if i not gonna book the slot for ielts she will close my case. I told her that i sat twice in the ielts but not able to scored required numbers however still if you want me to sit in the ielts exam then you have to give me sometime because my husband is suffering from dengue and i am running out of cash but she pressurised me and forced me to book the date within one week time otherwise she will terminmmy services. I told her it's is not mentioned in agreement that my services should be terminated due to ielts. But she was not ready to accept me and start arguing that it is mentioned that if you not submit your all documents within 30 days your services should be terminated so i explained her that this is fraud because my previous case manager told me that if you not clear your ielts exam we will not close your case because it's a assessment which we don't know whether you gonna score according to the requirement or not so he suggested me that in such cases as a proof i have to drop the mail stating that when i am gonna book the next slot for ielts and according to my convenience i can appear for ielts so she told actually i will not take it whatever you said because our terms and policies are different and you got incorrect information. So i requested her to give me some time once i will get my salary is will book the date of ielts but she denied and told me that she will close the case.

On the same day i went to the hdfc bank and applied for the credit card and book the date within week time for the month of september. Next day i called her that i dropped the details of ielts date which i booked so she asked me as which date i booked so i told her the 09/09/2016 but she argued with me again that why didn't i booked the date earlier then this and i told her not to pressurised me as i am running out of cash and my husband is not well. Also i told her if she can't hold the services then close my case and return back my money but she denied and told that there will be no refund. Later she agreed after long argument and given me warning that she will close my case if i will not score according to their requirements.

In the month of august i got the job opportunity in pune so i moved to pune on 017. I received the mail from british council about my ielts exam venue details 5 days prior to my exam so i booked the tickets on 08/09/2017 because i haven't got the salary from my previous company because i should get the full and final settlement after 45 days so i booked the bus and also hotel for one day in hyderabad because my exam was in hyderabad. I booked the ticket with kaveri tours and travels whose arrival time was at 6:00am in the morning.

While at 3:30 am in the midnight my bus got broken so i called the kaveri tours and travels manager and reported about this issue and informed him about my exam so he told he will place me in different bus but no buses passed from that route till 5:00 am. Around 5:15 am one bus of orange tours and travels came so kaveri bus driver stopped him and told me and one more passenger to board this bus so me and one more passenger whose flight was missing board the bus. I informed the orange bus driver about my exam that i have to be in hyderabad exact at 11:30 am because my exam gonna held in the royalton hotel lakdi ka pool in hyderabad. The bus driver told me that this bus arrival time is at 10:30 am and it's already late for 1 hour. At last i reached outer ring road of hyderabad at 1:00 pm and then he made us to board the mini bus of orange tours and travels to get into the city. Athe 1:40 pm i reached the lakdi ka pool and then i took the auto rikshaw to reached the hotel royalton. Once i reached the venue ii requested the invigilator of the british council to allow me to appear for the ielts exam but he was helpless because listening part was already started at 1:00 pm. However he suggested me to write an email to the british council regarding your concern and they will help you with the same.

Later i canceled my hotel booking and same return back to pune and next day i called pooja my case manager regarding my concern but she was not available at work so i called the icad customer services were i spoke to mahendra who is the consultant regarding my concern and he told me that he is unable to take the decision. However he told that he will inform pooja to give me a call back but i didn't received any call back from her so later i called back again and one lady she picked the call and told pooja is busy in meeting once she is free i will inform her to give you a call back.

Around 1:00 pm i received a call back from pooja so i told her about my concern and also dropped the mail which i received from the british council regarding my concern. But she was not ready to understand my situation and again given us the warning of closing my case so my husband told her that if she don't want to work on our profile then refund back our money but she was not allowing us to talk and when i spoke to her she told very rudely that she is closing my case without any refund and very soon she gonna drop mail regarding the same. I got so angry and told her to refund my money back otherwise i have to raise the complaint against you guys as i got very tortured by you but she least bother about it and later the conversation end up with argument.
Please request you to look into my case as it's my hard working money and all the commitment given by the consultants of icad immigration services was fake and bad quality service. They hire the staff without any knowledge and once they get the money they will not provide the service and the staff who convince you to get registered with them will get disappeared and whoever is available they give the threat to the clients of terminating there services.

Kindly look into this matter and resolve my issue as soon as possible. I want my rights. Please help me in getting my refund and help others also getting trapped with such fraud and fake consultancies.

I had signed with icad on 28 april 2016, because their manager at that time (Mirza) had promised me to get atleast 2 interviews a month for job in canada. After i was assigned case officer, nothing such happend. After few months my case officer was not available, i was always told he is in holiday etc excuses. I was not able to talk for 3-4 months with case officer and one day out of frustration, i complained about this to complain team on march 2017. I talked to complain officer and he agreed to refund me 40% after negotiating and talking for 2 days. I felt cheated but agreed with refund amount as they had said they will refund me 100% if its their fault. So on 22 march i got mail, asking my bank details and i had sent them immediately. But till today, its almost 5 months, i haven't received refund. The complain team have stopped replying my mail also, so i am lodging my complain at consumer complaints. My refund email is as follows:

I am not happy with the poor quality of service so i want a refund of 100% consultancy fees which i paid for immigration help to canada.

Hello everyone,

Please do not waste your money with icad, the fake consultancy. They as cheater and if you want to waste your money, please go ahead with them. They will talk a lot before your enrollment with them and they will send you a paper with terms and conditions, where whatever they said will mention clearly and they will ask you to sign it and send it back to them and they will also tell you that they will make the agreement in bond paper and send it back to you. Which you will never receive in your whole life.

Once you trapped with them then they will never call you for your case update. After calling several times you might get some update with might not be correct.

Guys they don't provide any job guarantee and its a waste of money. I paid more thn 70000. Its almost a year they didnt even called or reply.

I have logged a complain against them in grahaseva and will make sure that they should not cheat any one else.

Thanks

We applied for CANADA visa through ICAD visas last year.. The catch here is that you people know that visa processing formalities can never complete in 1 year. Still you lure people to sign a bond of 1 year.

After initial processings like IELTS, suddenly according to you CANADA website crashed and there was nothing you guys could do with our application. How convenient is that to waste time.

After 3-4 months of wastage of time.. Formalities started and that too very slowly.. and like this. 1 year completed. and you have now closed our case.

70000 which we gave you was a waste !
Do you do this with everyone? I am sure you do. Cheat people of their hard earned money. All your officers are waste and cheaters.

Really very disappointed with you.

To everyone out there reading my complaint, please dont go to them, they are not worth your hard earned money. Instead try yourself.

This is a fake consultancy.. who will not do anything for you.

This is to inform you that i, had applied for express entry program through this company based on multiple calls from one sohail, who reassured me of placement in canada within a period of 6 months. I therefore made the initial payment of inr 1200 as registration fee on 14th april 2016, and subsequently was forced to make payments of inr 11, 500 and inr 67, 555, within 48 hrs stating that the early bird offer would expire and i would be required to pay more otherwise. I had to borrow money to make this payment and i did on the 16th of april 2016. On the 18th of april 2016 i received an introduction email from one abdul muqeet mohammed claiming to be my case officer. For one week after that there was absolutely no communication until i called sohail to check on the status.

Post that abdul called me and requested the documents for wes and asked me to apply for passport and ielts, which i successfully did. I also got the sealed transcripts and sent it along with the copy of my signed agreement by courier. I did not get any communication post that and after three months of repeated emails and calls he asked me to send all my work experience and degree documents via wetransfer, which also i did immediately upon request. Again no response fr 2 months. And then after repeated attempts to contact him, in january 2017 i was told by one ms. Sumithra that abdul had been involved in an accident and she would be handling my case. And she asked me to resend all my documents, which i did and it was only 2 days after that that she created a cic id for me and registered me with the job bank in february 2017. After that i kept waiting for an update and i received none.

Then when i tried to contact her, i was told that sumithra was transferred to another department and that ishika was handling it. Again no communication and then i was told by one athreyee that the email id that sumithra had created for me had an issue and all emails that were being sent were being blocked. All that was there in the email id created by sumithra were a bunch load of bounce back emails. This was 2 weeks ago. She requested that i create a new gmail id and send her the id and password which i did immediately and sent it to her via email.

The very next day i receive an email from icad overseas stating that my contract has lapsed. I was shocked beyond comprehension because the lapse wherein there was no communication and accidents and long lunch breaks and meetings and non responsiveness was from the end of your employees and not mine. I have substantial communication proofs that would clearly show you that i have been given the run around for the past one year and nothing at all has been done for me for the inr 70, 000+ money's worth.

When i called to enquire to athreyee, i was brushed off saying that i send an email to their complaints department, which also i did and as was expected i have not received any response whatsoever.

Therefore, i request that either they extend the contract duration and provide the services that were promised or to please provide me with a refund of the money invested in this fruitless procedure at the earliest.

Icad is a cheating company. Looted 42, 000 from me. Fraud company. They are not guiding properly. They don't have knowledge about canada process. The case officer who was appointed for me has left icad. He has no knowledge. He is useless. He didn't provide proper guidance on the procedure. I called today to enquire about the status. All of a sudden they said my profile is closed without intimating me. I haven't received any mail regarding closing of my profile. When i called at that time only the case officer is sending me a mail immediately saying profile is closed.

This organization is only running to take money from customers by giving them false hopes and doing sweet talks. They do not even take responsibility and have no coordination among their own staff. They take the money and sit silently not even informing about the updates or any work (if they perform any on customer's application). I am following up with them from past 2 months and yet no one has responded properly on my request.

Hi,
I have very worst experience with ICAD. At initial stages they will say you that they have contacts in CANADA and they will provide you interview call end etc. Once you paid money then they will not follow their promises. I have enrolled with them in 2015. and as they promised they have not provided single interview call throughout the year from their side. In their agreement they mentioned IF no visa fees will be refunded but, now they are not returning the fees.
Please do not try with ICAD it's worst and fake..

Thanks & Regards,
Pravin sonawane

Big fraud company. They only lure people with their false sweet words show the dreams of Canada collected the processing fees 67, 500 .When they clearly know minimum qualification for immigrating to Canada is degree .They say even we process for 12th and diploma holders and give positive reports for eligibility. My question is this why are they lying to ignorant people and making a big booty. They are the big fraudulents and bastards.They ask to take Ielts exam which is an extra expense of 20, 000 including exam and training fees. When they know.The documents terms were amount was non refundable .These company knew it is highly impossible Then also they collected money. Plz on the humanitarian basis return my hard earned money. If not God is there to perish u bastards.

Icad overseas agreed for job in Canada and taken 25000 as advance in February 2016. Later i came to not possible any such process. I haven't submitted any document and not signed contract with them. Later they agreed to pay back the amount with local police authority in 45days in August 2016. Till now they didn't pay to me the amount. Now they are taking every day new excuses.

Beware of ICAD Overseas Careers for visa processing agent. Their officers, jagan Bhagya, abdul are pathetic officers. They do not have any knowledge of visa rule. They are just attracting clients with sweet coated words. Once the client has paid the money, they do not listen to client even not bother about them.
Sam is the one who sends mail to clients saying that they have consultencies in CANADA to get interview calls and also money will be refunded if they are not able to process the VISA. Like sam, jagan also attracts clients saying they will process the resume by sending resume to different consultencies agents. But After paying the amount they do not listen to client even not bother about them. They will assign 1 officer, for me they assigned Amir and Atreyee. Both Amir and abdul, dont have any information about the process of VISA. They dont have any agents in CANADA to process the resume atleast for an interview.Beware of this fake company.

Hi,

I wish to complain about internet fraud of processing Canada Visa by ICAD Overseas Careers Hyderabad base company.

Link of payment http://icadvisas.com/payment/signup.php?product=canada-express-visa&amount=56350...⇄

In mail they clearly mention that if we process is not start or you will not get Visa then we will refund your money back. After payment they suppose to send hard copy of agreement to start process but they could not send me agreement.

After calling so many time by phone and mail about bad service. I finally decided to refund my money. Now they not decline to refund my money. They take it granted because of remote location. threatening me about their legal department and abuse me.

I want to file complain to claim my money including money for whatever time i have sent still date and will send to this process base on my current salary base on hour and phone conversation amount with interest.

Please find my and offender information.
