Receipt of Micormax Funbook in Damaged Conditions
Hi,

I had placed an order with Indiatimes shopping on 18th May 2012 for purchase of Micromax Funbook tablet (Order No. [protected]). The tablet was recived by me via Bluedart express ltd. on 26th May 2012 in a damaged condition. I immediately called up customer care no. [protected] and registered a compliant with them the next day (Complaint No. 241501). They arranged a picked up on June 3rd through aramex courier . Since then I have been calling up the call center on a daily basis. It has been close to 4 weeks and I still have not received the replacement .

Request your kind help to get a replacement / refund at the earliest.

Regards

Hi,

I had placed an order with Indiatimes shopping on 23rd May 2012 for purchase of Micromax Funbook tablet (Order No. [protected]). The tablet was recived by me via Bluedart express ltd. (via
AWB No.:[protected] ) on 28th May 2012 in a damaged condition. I immediately called up customer care no. [protected] and registered a compliant with them on same day (Complaint No. 246245). The arranged a picked up on 30th May 2012 through aramex courier AWB No. [protected]. But the vendor refued to accept the courier and the same was returned to me through Aramex Courier AWB - [protected]. Thereafter i again contacted the Customer care and they gave me a new address to send the courier which was again shipped via Aramex Courier AWB [protected] to Times Internet Ltd / A2Z Shopping Limited, Top Floor, 10- Dariya Ganz, New Delhi-110002.

But this vendor also refused to accept the Courier and the same shipment is on hold with Aramex courier. On a daily basis I have been following up with Customer care to get the courier accepted by vendor and a replacement is provided to me at the earliest. But whenever I call up, they always keep telling they are following up with vendor and courier company to get the courier accepted by Vendor and the replacement will be provided as soon as the vendor confirms the receipt of goods and they will update me within 24 hours / 48 hours / 3 working days. But till date I have never recieved a call and only I keep following up with them everytime. When I told them to transfer to call to some next level manager in their call centre, the reply was back we have 1 senior manager in the office and he is busy and hence cannot take the call.

Frustrated with their responses, when I told them to cancel my order, they told that that will happen only once the goods are recieved by the vendor. And I dont know when the vendor is going to accept the goods and either a replacement / refund is given to me.

Request your kind help to get a replacement / refund at the earliest.

    Dear Sir,

    I have been a very terneured customers (about 5-6 yrs) of indiatimes shopping had had terrible experience with two of my order which totally ruined by trust in your brand . The service levels of a company are seen in case of issue, where your company is totally irresponsible and unfriendly. I am sorry to use this strong words, but this is something i have to write as things are so bad.
    ;
    1. order no. [protected] This is regarding an order for "Need for Speed" Game DVD for xbox which was ordered by me on May 31st. The game dvd was delivered to me after 2 week, but was a incorrect product and was for PS2. How can one use ps2 game on xbox ? I called up 3-4 times and wrote 4-5 emails, and always was told that in 48 hrs will revert, like the one below but no order information was reciceved.

    2. order no. [protected]: I had ordered a lion king trilogy pack on Jun18th ( amounting 819 Rs) . There was no communication to me on the status of the order, and now i see the order in cancellation status. Dont know if you intent to refund me the amount and notify me about the same.

    If the company feels they are even little bit responsible for their actions, kindly get both the above mentioned issues to resolution.

    Regards.

      I was using Indiatimes as my email service provider since last 7-8 years. But since last 1 year its service has deteriorated like anything. I find it very difficult to work with indiatimes email service as it has lots of problems which are a serious obstacles for my professional growth and which I have narrated as follows:

      1) At times for month together indiatimes email id does not get open and hence I fails to reply to several my clients and professional colleagues.

      2) It is not synchronized with Blackberry Mobile due to which it deprives us from our email on mobile facility which is the necessity now a days

      3) It has got all sorts of bad and illicit hosting on the page which is not worth for any person of good standard.

      4) Its page is always opening with signup facility made disabled so you can't login to your email account and view your emails or even reply to it.

      As I have given this email id to all my connected and professional colleagues and clients that now I can not change it otherwise with the problems I am facing I would have changed the my email account to another email service provider like gmail, etc. which is better and faster than indiatimes.

          My Order# [protected] is NOT yet delivered since March 1 2012 worth Rs.2474
          This was actually replacement of 2 items against my original order# [protected] containing 7 items which was dated Dec 4, 2011 worth Rs.7833.

          Every time some one calls from Indiatimes Shopping, they assure delivery within 3-4 working days.. but next call comes only after few weeks. Again same story of assuring resolution in another 3-4 working days and into infinite loop.

          Even my card thru which i had originally paid got expired & is discontinued/not renewed since its renewal fees is more than Rs.2474. Hence I cannot take this as refund into same account. I have already conveyed my request to refund in form of Gift vouchers/coupons on indiatimes which i can use for my future purchases. Even this is not done till date.

            This is regarding order no. [protected].
            I had ordered the product (wrist watch worth Rs. 7295) on 15.06.2012 (30% discount was being offered i.e. of Rs.2188), which was supposed to be delivered by 25.06.2012.
            On 25.06.2012, cust care exec called me up and told me that the product is not in the stock and i can opt for other product to whcih i said clear NO.
            When i checked the availability of the product on 25.06.2012, it was available and anyone could buy the same (even though it was out of stock, as per their exec) and similar was the condition on 26th and 27th June'2012.
            This is clear fraud and cheating.

            All the above things are mentioned on their website vide case no 284909 against the above order no.

            Suddenly on 27.06.2012, i checked the status and found that the order has been cancelled without intimation.
            You are requested to look into the above matter and intiatimes shall either provide me the product or if they are cancelling the order, they should reimburse the full amount i.e. of Rs. 7295 as i have lost the discount due to their negligence and fraud.

            I WOULD REQUEST EVERYBODY TO NOT TO GO FOR ONLINE SHOPPING SPECIFICALLY FROM INDIATIMES.COM

            Indiatimes — shopping order cancelled without any intimation

            I have placed an order online to send a gift online from indiatimes to one of my friends in jaipur.
            indiatimes took the payment online and confirmed my oder saying that if i place the order before 2pm on 27th october, then the order will be shipped on diwali the next day. they had a scheme like that.

            But the order did not reach. I checked with indiatimes and was told that they take 3 days, which is not in tune with 24hrs as was shown on website.

            I still agreed as i wanted the gift to reach my dear ones by friday.

            But on Monday i checked again the gift has not reached. I have sent varuious emails to indiatimes asking for status of order but they did not reply.

            Then I spoke with someone named Aman, Team Lead of call center. he said he will get order shipped in a day and rever to me. But he never reverted.

            Today I have shooted an email to MD of indiatimes and then I start getting calls that the order is on its way. After 30mins the person calls up and says that my oder was cancelled. when I asked who has instructed to cancel the order, they do not have the data.

            This is ridiculous, my diwali gift has been shattered and has not reached even after 10 days.

            what shall i do?

            Order Number : [protected]

                Indiatimes.com — Selling duplicate product

                Hi Everybody,

                I am working for call center and recently I read Times of India news paper and there they have advertised a HTC 7 surround dolby digital mobile phone at 57% less offer. I called their service center asked about the product and the executive told me that the mobile is legal sealed product and has 6mnths of their warranty. Believing that the mobile sealed I ordered for one over the phone. After 8 working days I got the product but later I sent the courier person, I realized it is a Brand from AT&T in US but am still not even sure whether it is american brand or the seller cheated me giving any Korean mobile with the name HTC on it. I lost my 13300 rupees and now even that phone is not working. Seller also not giving any response to my complaints. I really feel bad about internet marketing now and please someone help me in resolving this. My email ID is [protected]@gmail.com.

                            I have purchased a product vide order no [protected] dtd 2 Apr. The product was defective and a complaint was registered vide 197555. The customer care advised to send the product back to merchandiser. The product was sent to merchandiser by DTDC courier on 25 Apr.Inspite of several calls to the customer care, the status of our refund is unknown and everytime we give a call they tell us they will come back in 48 hrs, however, no one calls back. We must have made at least 100 calls to them but their negligent attitude has harassed us everytime. An early redressal will be appreciated.

                              Hi ,

                              I had purchased a Samsung Galaxy S-2 on Indiatimes shopping. I used HDFC Credit Card to Make the Payment. After completion of order there was a message generated flagging an ERROR the payment has not been received from the Bank. I have the Snapshot of the same , the order was not placed at that time. I made my purchase from another Vendor. Now next Day I received an SMS regarding 25K has been deducted from my account. As soon I saw the message I called Indiatimes to Cancel the order from Mail & over the Phone as well. They never reply the mails on time they took their own time & they accepted my request on 26 (as per their records) . HDFC says they didn't raised any request for cancellation. Now on 28 May I received another SMS about my amount has been converted into 6 equal EMI . Daily I am calling Customer care & there is a single reply "Your amount will be reverted back within 3-4 working days ". If you ask any question the answer is same. They mentioned that the order has been candled due to unavailability of Stock. God knows what the hell they are doing .

                              This is not the first time they are doing this, couple of years ago I ordered a Cannon Digital camera & they shipped a different product.

                              They are working like a typical Govt organization, nonchalant with cavalier attitude towards their customers. No Idea how they are surviving in this market.

                              I will be thankful if any one can guide me where should I flagg this issue, from where I can expect some Immediate action.

                              IndiaTimes escalation is bunch of few who just use some practiced statements to pacify the Customer and than disappear after that. They have a presence here to show public that they are working on the complaints but in reality nothing happens. My complaint is due for past 4 months with escalation. No matter how much discount you get; stay away from IndiaTimes.

                              Indiatimes — Cancelling the placed order on their Own

                              Hello,

                              I placed an order for a Motorola Defy Mini mobile at http://shopping.indiatimes.com on 14th July Mid night via the order no. [protected].
                              Also a Gift Card applied to re-deem an offer of price reduction of 1099 INR. All the steps are properly followed and the payment was also done through Citi Bank credit card, it was accepted and I was informed via email and SMS that the product will be delivered by 25th July 2012.

                              Later when I checked the status after 2 days ,I was shocked to see the status as "CANCELLED".
                              I gave many feedback and also reported a case (Case ID is: 320402) but there is no any response still.
                              When I called the Customer center, the executive updated me saying that there was some technical problems in the website due to which the order was cancelled.

                              Now I want that the same order is respected by them and the product is delivered as committed.

                                    I ordered item#Philips Hair Straightener - HP8315 (1) and indiatimes were unable to deliver it. So I cancelled. Instead of cancelling they were giving other option to buy any other product. But atleast I cancelled it because of their services. the main thing what i found they are not at all tracking their records what customer has ordered. When you call and ask that time only they will wake up and make complain for which they will not return back to you. So again if you call then only they will tell you the status. this is how they are working for on-line shopping.
                                    after cancellation of this order, I am doing a continuous follow-up on call and email to get my money back. but they people are somehow want customer to keep silent and they can eat money. this is really a ridiculous.

                                    Order details: [protected] Apr 9, 2012 Philips Hair Straightener - HP8315 (1), please refer to the attachment for more details. I ordered 9Apr but till date there is no refund happened on it. they are giving some fake information about Bank Draft which they haven't delivered. they are really making a fool of people. INdiatimes online shoping is the worst I have ever seen. so now INDIATIMES is not willing to return the money they will excuse and try to escape from it.so that customer get tired off and leave his money with indiaties only. This is the way of INDIATIMES shopping. I want you all to know so that It will not happen with you all as well. So beware of this type of fraud which indiatimes is doing with customer. a well brand name into print media(playing with people money) and emotions..

                                      Though my overall experience itself is bad; this complaint is strictly about order no [protected] (April 5 2012). I ordered a PC Game and they sent me a XBox one. After this the pain started. I called logged a ticket; they said they'll pick it up soon,

                                      Nothing happened for a week, checked again; same reply with assurence. Again nothing happen. Finally escalated it, now its 7+ days after escalation. Escalation told me to pick it in 2 days; I wonder where to complain about escalation.

                                      So all in all ordered on 5th April, today is 13 May. More than a month. Several communication and no result.

                                      My advice; even though they are offering coupons; which at first seems lucrative; STAY AWAY from them. The mental pain they cause to a customer is huge.

                                      I am going to persuade it for sure. Lets see how many days more it continues.

                                      One Mr Shukla called from escalation and asked me to wait for some days; same like other executive did in past. Now its 3 days since than and again no response. I do not understand what is so hard in doing a pick up and giving refund. Don't you guys have any control over vendors.
                                      Now the product is being picked up and delivered to merchant; and escalation has again gone deaf and unresponsive. I suggest every one to only shop with credit card and press charge back in such conditions.
                                      same case here

                                      order no [protected] ordered on 22 may verefied on 25 may, was called by vendor on 26 may regarding non avablity of ordered product, i reverted to your c.care. on 26 informed the conversation nothing happned, same story on28, 29, 30, and today 31 still no action product delivery date by 1 st june but still today no update on the delivery status if not resolved by today evening new coplaint will be looged from my side
                                      I actually ordered it on April 5, so its 2 months now; and its still going on. IndiaTimes CC and escalation are one hopeless department; I am still waiting for the, they are waiting for vendor and vendor is not responding. I am going to write at more places about this,
                                      Just for other's information, it is still going on. One escalation guy told me that they are processing refund and will be done in 5 days, after 10 days another guy said "we are working on your case". Not sure who named this moronic department as escalation.
                                      It is still going on, no sign of refund yet. I am still checking with these .
                                      Dear Aditya,

                                      Hello from Indiatimes Shopping.
