On subscribing INDIA TODAY WEEKLY for one year at a rate of Rs.1310/- I was assured a gift of ACCORD MOBILE phone worthRs 3195/-in the month of October 2010. Accordingly i had deposited the amount by crossed cheque and my subscription started wit effect from 1 nov 1010 with subscription no.ITE 1898008.The India Today group was expected to seng me the gift within 8 to 10 wweeks after starting of suscription. It is regretted to inform that I am yet to erceive the gift till date, I had sent many emails in this regard and also letter by post but everytime the group is evading the issue by giving some reply to some how delay the matter. They had even told me that they had already sent through some AFL COURIER giving some docket number which was subsequently with drawn by them. Even in their latest communication thaey have requested me to wait another 3 to 4 weeks for taking some action. This considered tobe a dalaying tactic intended probably not to send the promised free gift to me.I request you to take up this matter and arrange to send me the promised gigt to me without further delay

I have purchased LUXURY HOLIDAY STAY by paying Rs7498/-. I have submitted the form on 15Dec2010 with 3 destination choices with 3 dates as per the terms and extra Rs750 as DD for processing (booking the hotel). They have not processed yet as on 16Mar2011. The 3 dates given as choice has already gone and they didn’t book the holiday stay for me.
I have contacted to their tel.nos. [protected], [protected],[protected],[protected], [protected] and complaint. There was no use, only waste of call charges for me. I have sent many mails to [protected]@indiatodaybookclub.com , [protected]@bagittoday.com , [protected]@bagittoday.com , [protected]@bigcity.in , [protected]@bigcity.in but there was no response (reply) email. Lot of time got wasted. If we are calling one tel. no., after hearing every thing they ask us to call other no. or other email ID’s. Each time we will have to repeat in full. Only 1 time they gave a complain no. 742962.
My IndiaToday(Bagittoday) order no. 0GA[protected]WEB no. 99853718, Invoice no. ORA[protected].
They are having too many names like Living Media India Limited, India Today Book Club, BagItToday, Premier Sales Promotion Pvt.Ltd., BigCity Promotion.

Sir,
I received a call from Bag it Today on 10th November 2011 regarding offer in which i was offered 30 cents diamonda with brilliant cut & warranty card about its genuineness from Gemology Institute, along with this they also told that there are free gift i.e silver pooja thali & artdinox cup set both worth Rs.3500. I aacepted & agreed to do the payment of Rs.5799 & i did it immediately.

Since then I am following it up with them for last 4 months but everytime they tell that we have forwarded the complaint & you will receive the gift in 15 to 20 days but even after four months & four times complains & innumerable phone calls, i have not received the item as well as gifts. On the contrary I have spent around rs.1000 on phone calls as they do not have toll free no & they keep on hold for long time.
I also gave then option to refund my money if they are unable to send the gift but they are not ready for that also. I am planning to go in consumer Court as I have been cheated and more so mentally harrassed by them. They have wasted my money & time. Please guide me to approach consumer court.

My order no is- 0GA[protected]
Name- Dr.Sandip Sawant
Mob- [protected]
Complaint nos-718205 on 28.12.10
742971 on 16.03.11
Other compalint nos. are there but as i will have to search for them and i donot have time right now. But can produce if required.

They give excuse of Courier people that they have not delivered it, where as i receive all couriers at my place or atleast courier people call me to collect the gift but these Bas**ds do it in such a way that gift should not reach the customer & after few days customer will give up and they get money as well as gift.

Police should do something in this not only to India today but also to the employees as they are the people who cheat customers.

Kindly guide in this matter

Dear Sir,

This is to inform you that one of your executive called me for the order which includes:

1 Sony Ericsson C903 Mobile Phone
5 Packs of Anaira's Diamond wt. 0.10 carat
Diamonds Certificate
1 MTV Sunglasses

The total cost of the order was Rs. 15699

I agreed to buy with all inclusion so I agreed to executive for the same & my call was transfered to payment system through phone inputing credit card details. After payment executive told me that I will get my order within 12-15 working days. I placed this order near 30-31 Oct 2010. I got sms finally on 12 November for order processed. I received it on 20 November 2010. It only include diamonds 1 Sony Ericsson C903 Mobile Phone & 5 Pack of diamonds. No certificate & MTV sunglasses were included in the pack and also the Bill for mobile to claim warranty.

I complained about the same next day and it was told to me by executive that this order does not include MTV sunglasses. I was shocked, but I pressurized the executive for the same so he promised me to verify me after call recording trace-out. The executive called me 4-5 days later confirming me that sir you were right it includes MTV sunglasses & reason behind it is that the sunglasses was not in stock & we processed rest of the order to avoid delay in order. We will be sending you your pending item within 15-20 working days.

I waited for 30 days & complaint again for Certificate & MTV sunglasses with generated ids:

717273
717049

Again waited & recalled 5 timed till today, same reply "I am forwarding your complaint on urgent basis & get back to you in 7 days etc... finally no response till date.

One more issue arises that Mobile Phone C903 giving less backup so I went to service center for replacement of battery they denied due to improper invoice for the same. Please issue me proper Invoice with mobile details so that I can claim warranty & please hurry up otherwise warranty period for battery will pass out.

I am giving all details about my order below:

Order No. : 0GA10038600

Inspite off speaking to customer care regarding being charged for products i dont want,I was told the amt will be refunded to me but similar transactions have been done to date, my bank has asked for written complaint which i have made to them. some transactions have been done and i have not recieved the products too. transactions upto Rs 60,000 is done off which im not aware I have requested my bank to block any transactions from Living media, I would appreciate if all this money will be refunded back to my card.
Customer care personnel were rude and not giving satisfactory answers to my queries.I like to name a few sr and jr sales executives who gave wrong informations tome and have fooled me saying alast payment to be done to close your file etc etc.
I am very dissappointed with their services.
I refused to take calls from b i today.Kuldip, Prashant Anuj Rahul Deepak Abishek Gaurav these are some names i remember . please take some action coz they are Maligning the Name of your Company.

I had paid for an order of a Giordano watch on Bagittoday.com on the 18th of February. The website guaranteed a 2-3 weeks delivery to my address of the item. Since then i had been making regular calls to their customer care to enquire about my order. They have been telling me to wait 2-3 days each time I call. The situation is so that after so many 2-3 days passing, they still do not have a record of my item on their database when it clearly shows on my profile of bagittoday.com that I have purchased the item on 18th of February. Such slackness is an insult to e-trading and I have lost all my trust on these e-trading websites. I request all customers to kindly rethink and if possible avoid investing their money in such agencies with such low degree of service. I request you to kindly take necessary actions.

i made a order of blackberry mobile from bag it today site group of india today book club.....but i cancelled my order next day............i called customer care and they told me the procedure i followed the procedure and send a mail at [protected]@bagittoday.com but no response i got from that............again i called and they gave me request no.............after 10 to 15 days i made a call to customer and asked him what happened with my order ..........he told me i transfer ur request and gave me another request no.............ok then again after 4 to 5 days i called ...same again ..............i have three request forward number.but no response.i get even ........................................i think they are froude company .

Hello,

I am kalidas Kahane living in pune. I ordered a goggle from BagitToda.com site on 17th January 2011. the Order number is "[protected]". As per the email the order should have been dispatched within 2-3 weeks. Its been almost 2 months I have not yet received my order. On 1st March they dispatched the order through Blue Dart but without paying the Octroi amount. Now the shipment is sent back to them by Blue Dart giving the reason of Octroi. I contacted BagItToday now they are saying it will take another 2-3 weeks to dispatch the order.

Please can you tell me what action can be taken against them.
My contact Number [protected].

Bag It Today is a most pathetic company I have ever experienced in online shopping. They are not trustworthy at all i had ordered novels on 16/08/2010 and made payment through credit card and have not received the parcel yet. Later i got to know my order is been cancelled and money is refunded to my account but alas i haven't received yet. They don't provide proper information to our query's. I make a appeal to all not to make any purchase from Bag It Today.

Rahul Jadhav.

Dear Muzammil Feroz,

Its good to see your response that the shipment was moved for the destination , but as on today 23.02.2011 , I hadn't received any shipment nor any phone call either from your office as well as from courier agency representative, then what is the need of taking customer address along with contact no.

Please find attached my previous mail mentioning the problem and again no solution has been provided by your company.
If such type of error will be at your company's end , how a customer can show his faith for new order .

I want a concrete solution on this from your company end through mail or contacting me on the undermentioned phone no. asap

I am Chirag Parikh. I received a call from bagittoday telesales on 23.02.2011 that i have won a fuji laptop and a 25000rs worth diamonds as i placed an order on 22.02.2011 and bagittoday was celebrating their anniversary on 22.02.2011 and i got selected as one of three to receive this gift.(1st Fraud)

01. I was told by Mr. Vivek that the payment would be of 14799Rs through EMIs over 18months so i just gave my credit card information for payment but i did not gave any one time password for payment approval still money got deducted from my SBI credit card and that whole money 14799rs got diducted at a time only, no EMIs(2nd Fraud).

02.Then i tried to know model number of laptop and customer care said that it is not a laptop it is a palmtop(3rd fraud).

03. I tried calling for customer care on 01.03.2011 for cancellation of order.
Order ID: [protected]
Order No: TRNPL/DLI/10-11/307643
INVOICE NO. 300663
Order Amount: 14799
The customer care on [protected] said that the order can not be canceled over the phone and i need to send e-mail for cancellation of order. I sent numerous mails to [protected]@bagittoday.com, [protected]@bagittoday.com, [protected]@bagittoday.com, [protected]@bagittoday.com, [protected]@indiatodaybookclub.com on 02.03.2011 and 03.03.2011. I called again on 03.03.2011 and the guy cut my phone twice so i again called and talked to Mr Bhagwat for cancellation of order and he gave me a request ID 69311 for cancellation and forwarded my call to Mr. Pankaj - a field supervisor. Mr Pankaj said first that he will try to cancel the order and then immediately out of the blue he said the order can not be canceled and no one can do anything to cancel the order and disconnected the phone. Then i
got a mail reply from [protected]@bagittoday.com stating that the order can not be canceled as the invoice number has been generated.

I asked Mr. Pankaj to cancel my order immediately to which i was told that my order is already "completely processed" so it cannot be canceled . however i can "refuse to accept the parcel" when it arrives. If the parcel has not yet been dispatched or even packed, why would bagittoday not cancel the order? I never thought that bagittoday an indiatodaybookclub company would do such a fraud to the online customers. Please cancel my order (Order ID: [protected]) and refund my valuable money. This is the worst online/telesales shopping experience i ever had.

Bagittoday or Indiatodaybook club please return my money.

This is a scam. Initially it was called the India Today Book Club and now they have renamed it to Bag It Today, probably because of all the complaints and bad feedback (google and you would know what I mean). I am a victim myself - I had ordered 2 Benetton watches but got only one. I have been trying to get them to work on my complaint for a long time but had no luck. Then one day, a week back, I got a call from one of their reps, Akshay Thakur, who said that the company is offering gifts to all irate customers (he had no clue about the status of my complaint though). He confirmed my shipping address and provided me with a booking ID 44009597.
Of course I did not believe him, so called the Bag it Today customer care number to check if it's true. While the rep at the other end, Mr Abbas, confirmed that they are sending gifts as compensation to dissatisfied customers, however, he could not track the booking ID Mr. Thakur had provided me. His excuse was that it takes 1 week's time for the system to get updated. I called them again a week later, this time I was answered by a Mr Qadir, who could not track the booking ID either. So my advice to whoever is reading this - beware of this company!

This is to bring to your notice that there are fake calls happening on behalf of India today book club to dupe consumers just like i was.

I received a call from a person day before yesterday who said he was calling from the verification dept of India today book club. He said that there have been many complaints registered against ITBC and inorder to make ammends they have now decided to identify a few existing consumers and offer them products at 90% discount.

The products were worth Rs 1 lac ( Sony LCD TV, Blackberry phone & Compaq laptop) which would be offered to me at Rs 10,000 flat. All i had to do is to transfer the money to an account after which they would give me courier details of the package that would be delivered to me at my residence. I was wary of the offer as it seem to be a hoax but the person convinced me that this was not a sale that he was making and thus he would not force me to accept it. It is complete voluntary to accept or reject the offer. Besides the amount will go into charity and i will also receive a tax certificate for the same. Though not fully convinced I decided to take a chance.

However before making any transfer to the bank acount provided by the person( Care Today foundation, account no [protected], IFC code PUNB0189400), i called up the bagit customer care number and inquired if there was any such offer from India today. They told me that the offer was genuine so i decided to proceed with the needful. I even spoke to a person who pretended to be a senior at the verification department for confirming the bank details required for the NEFT process.

Now that the amount of Rs 10,000 has got transferred to the said account and i have not received any call whatsoever and when i called the bagit customer care number again, the same person told me that it was a fake call and that i just got cheated.

I have lost all trust & respect for India today Book Club even if the call was a hoax( i am not sure about this???). That there are many such complaints against ITBC on the net just validates my concern. I will not recommend ITBC to anybody in the near future and instead warn them of taking any offers.

I want want an explanation of this fraud and a refund of the money.

order ids given to me were 44009597, 44009598, 44009599
