India Today Book Club — refund not forthcoming

I ordered items in Nov 2008 and paid thru credit card. After struggling I got the order number. After nearly a month I was told items are not in stock and I can get a refund if I send credit card statement.This was sent one month ago and still there is no acttion from them.It is disgusting to see organisations with Big Names letting down small customers. Why do they flaunt their email ids and telephone numbers if they are not looking after their customers. I am aghast to see 795 complaints on this company.

India Today Book Club — Refund is credited at given time

Hi ,

I have order a product from 29th of September 2009 from India today book club.But till February 11th i didn't receive my order from there end.

So finally i decided to cancel my order 11th of February 2010 and raised a request for canceling my order.At that time they (India Today customer care agent) make a commitment to refund my my amount with in 15-21 working day.

After one month when i asked them about the status for my refund amount they again say they required some more time to refund the amount.

Please suggest what i should do ??

It has been 15 days but i have still not received the refund and when i

called call center i was told that the refund request no is not generated.

Also since i called the call center executive he told me that a new request

is generated and original is deleted... This is taking far too much time why

do you delete the request when once decided that you have to give refund on

a particular order id... Plz refund my money back... it has been over 3

months now ......

Subject: Cancellation of orders.

I had placed 4 orders with india today book club in March. My order id being.

>[protected]
>[protected]
>[protected]

I have cancelled all my orders as i was wrongly informed by your call center
executive that i will be also getting 2 LCD TV's with the orders in my
order placement time. Later on order receipt and re-validation with the call
center i knew that there will be no tv coming so i cancelled all the
orders.
I have got confirmation from your employees at the call center that
you have received all the parcels back at your office on 10 Apr.



After that i have called your call center a few time to get my refund
request nos. but no one seems to know what to do.

Also i was told earlier when i palced the orders that i will get
refund with in 21 days of return of parcel but it has been already 14 days and
still even the refund request no is not genereated.
Request you to please do the needfull at the earliest and refund my
money with in next 7 days.


Regards
Kushal Shah.
even after sending mail to the above mentioned ID and ONLINE COMPLAINTS as subject line there is no action on it. ... I have still not got any refund ... every time i call the customer help they say 10-11 days max it will come... this is highly irresponsible behavior...please process the refund as quickly as possible.

    Living Media India Limited (India Today Book Club) — Benetton Sunglasses

    I was offered Benetton Sunglasses worth Rs. 3999/- as free gift againt the purchase of Sur Saaz Aur Taal CD's, I received the CD's within 2 weeks of my order. But they took 2 months to deliver the free gift, that too after i called them nearly 10 times & mailed 4-5 times. After i received the free gift it was not that much worth as they were told & it looks like a local sunglasses. I am really shocked to know that even big reputed companies also cheat people like this.
    I guess this some automated reply, every time one complain about something you get the similar response. ". "We request you to kindly wait for few days. You will receive the same soon". I wish someday they start taking their customer seriously.

    I personally had similar complain with India Today Book Club and been facing the similar issue from last 3 months.
    i think this site is not usefull for Solve the Complaints Becauze till 45 days i cant get result,
    The Company Solve The matter and Refund My Money After 1 year,

    Thank You

      India Today Book Club — Item Not Received Yet

      I have booked the order vide Booking ID No:[protected] Dated:[protected], Amount Rs 9498.00 by the booking Agent of India today Book Club namely Mr Ankush Greg on his continuous insistance and persuation as I was not completely in their offers as before they bothered me mentally while booking the previous order in which I didn't get the free gift of hotel package as they say the coupon is expired( Coupon/Unique number is 12385110A[protected]. Now he assured me that the order will be delivered within two weeks or ten days and there will be no delay in this package, but till now I didn't receive any order nor any phone call from him. I think they get the money hide into the rooms of their boss. They never bother to inform about the updates. I called their office so many times but didn't get any respond from any one. They always avoid by saying this execuse and that execuse. They don't respond with satisfaction. I request your good self to kindly look into the matter and take the note of it and necessary action in this regard.

Accordingly I paid Rs.7100/- in Punjab National Bank, Juhu Vile Parle Branch, Mumbai, India. Mr. Kashyap called me from the tel no.[protected] and confirmed that I paid the amount in the name given. I tried this number so many times, but not getting any reply. He has also promised me that the stuff he is sending through DHL Courier has Airway Bill No.44003851 & 44003852 dated 1.2.2011. I am also told that the amount which I am crediting through bank, will have Income Tax exemption. Todya is 8th Feb 2011. Till today I have not got eighter laptop, nor Black Berry phone 9700 or Certificate. Kindly look into matter and inform me.

        Address: Karnataka

        I am furnishing below the details of e mail sent & received from indiatodaybookclub.
        From the first day I have informed them that I have been foxed by them into booking a product & making payment for that & requested them to refund my money & then I will send back the parcel. But they are asking me to send the parcel now to process the refund claim. I have no faith in the company.I fear I send back the parcel I will left with nothing - neither the parcel nor money.

        Please register my complaint & resolve.

        Hello,
        I had already informed in the first instance itself in my e mail dated
        Tuesday, June 29, 2010 9:56 PM that I will send the parcel back after I receive the refund amount. When you expect your customers to pay the money first before receiving the parcel, is it not fair that I expect you to refund the money before I send back the parcel, especiaaly since the product was sent to me despite my requests to cancel the order. Moreover, I do not have faith in your organisation that once I return the parcel I will be refunded money, in which case I will lose both the product & my money. So, I request you kindly arrange for refund of money before I send back the parcel.
        Thank you,
        Sooryanarayana Rao

        Hello,

        I have already infomrd you over & over again that I do not want any offers/coupons from you. You please keep it for yourselves. I am reiterating what i have already informed over phone & over e mail that I have no faith whatsoever in your club. I was made to book a product which I did n't want to book in the first place. As you would have seen i had requested for cancellation of the booking & refund of money on the very same day by writing mail to [protected]@intoday.com; [protected]@intoday.com; sunil.[protected]@intoday.com; but nobody responded. I did not know the e amil address to which i should have requestd for cancellation. Later when Mr Bhupendra caled me again also i told him in clear terms to cancel my booking, then he told me to contact helpline number. When i contacted the helpline no. i was told that I can send mail after receiving the parcel ( as the same was already despatched)

        please do not try to convince me to continue. Please understand that I have no time to waste writing to you & calllling you up again & again. So please do not waste my time & money. & arange to refund the money at the earliest.

After what has happeaned ever since I ordered for a reebok sunglass in March 10, (after a lot of remainders and complaints including one to consumercomplaints.com, I received my money refunded on 17.6.10) and the way I was fooled by mr Bhupendra into beliving that no actual booking would be done (when i had actaully told him repeatedly that i don't want to pay any money or book any product,) I have lost faith in your club & just want to get my money back. I have cancelled my credit card also. Hence, please arrange to refund & credit it to my ICICI bank account at athe eearliest. aftere which i will send your product back to you( I have not opened the parcel)

        Please let me know the details.

        Dear Sir/Madam,



        Iam a member of your bagit today club. I received a phone call on my mobile no.[protected] from indiatodaybook club on 15.06.2010. The person introduced himself as Bhupendra from indiatoday bookclub. The no from which i received the call is [protected].He was speaking in broken english. IHe told me that as a priviledged member i have been selected for gold box price wirth Rs, 1,10,000/-. He told me that I was one of the 3 selected from all over India for the prize. He then told me book for a product to get a booking ID which will be used fro reference when his senior calls for confirming my details. He told me that there are two products - one samsung comcorder worth some 11,000+ & one sony mobile camera worth Rs. 19,498/-. He told me that I need to give option to book one of these to generate a booking ID for which, I told him repeatedly that I don't want to receive any offer or book any product in order to receive any prize. He persisted and told me again and again that it is just to get a booking Id and there will not be any actual booking. He asked for credit card no.for which I told him that I will not divulge the same on phone. He informed that I needn not give the details orally but just need to feed it on my mobile which willl be recorded by a computer to generate a booking ID. On being assured that I will not be charged anything for the booking I was asked by a recorded system to feed the details of my credit card. I was given a booking no.-[protected] and was told that i will be contacted by his senior to verify my details.

        To my uttter surprise I got a message from ICICI bank saying that I have been credited Rs.19,498/- on my card on the account of living media india ltd. I tried to contact the [protected] and ask why he had cheated me. But I couldnot. Later, i contacyted ICICI bank and informed them about the fraud by indiatodaybook club. They informed me to cancel the booking and when I told them that i was notr able to contact the phone no.of the person who played a trick on me I was told to cancel my credit card immediately so that the transaction does not materialise. i consented for that. But i later received a statement from the bank which shows a credit of Rs,19,498/- towards payment to living mediaindia ltd. Delhi . On contacting mthe ICICi bank they told me that as the transaction was already over they could not get it cancelled and asked me to contact living media india ltd. to cancel the booking and ask for refund.

        The transaction Id is -380794. Merchant name - Living Media India Ltd. - merchant ID - 4519.



        In view of the above facts, I request you to please llok into the matter and please cancel the booking and refund the amount of Rs. 19,498/-

        hoping for a prompt respons from you

          BAGITTODAY.com registered me as a customer with my e-mail address sent me e-mails offering various products under huge discounts. Being a shopping website of INDIA TODAY GROUP, I placed an order (Billing Id:[protected] in March for a Reebok Wrist Watch worth Rs.299/- The promised delivery of the product was to be made within 3-4 weeks. However, when more the product was not deleivered I started contacting the customer care at their telephone no. 40502424 and spoke to many of their executives, at interval of 7-8 days . First of all they told me that the packet containing my goods has returned Undelivered due to wrong address provided by me. When I told them that this is absolute nonsense.

          When a I asked them for refund first they said it has been approved and i will get the refund by june end. Then they called me up and said they are giving me a gift voucher worth Rs. 25000 for surat jwellery as compensation. But till date neither the refund nor the gift voucher has been received.

          By all the above misleading, deceitful gesture clearly with the intention of cheating people, on the part of BAGITTODAY, a shopping website of INDIA TODAY GROUP, I am seeking your help to get the problem resolved by either delivery of the product or refund of my hard earned money. Bagittoday has their Customer care division at INDIA TODAY BOOK CLUB, B-47, Indira Enclave, Neb Sarai, New Delhi – 110 068.
          I have been getting this reply from last 3 months but no action has been taken place till date. Your helpline no is also not working know. I have also asked for the higher authority and concerned department number but no help was given.

          They are a fraud and best part is they agree to it. India Today group has to wake up and not resort to such misleading and fraudulent schemes to earn profits. They are losing more credibility and goodwill that has taken them years to gather.

          India Today Group — Delivered different mobile than ordered (payment made online)

          I ordred Samsang Omnia Mobile and paid Rs.10000+ through credit card over telephone, but the phone received is different, it is touch screen mobile and the market price (even MRP0 is much less than the amount paid. After so many complains through phone and emails and even after sending a legal notice, India Today Group is not responding. Pulblic alert should be advertised by the Govt. to stay away from this kind of cheater company under the name of renowned group.

          Hi Guys Bagittoday is one of the fraud est website who is selling a wrong information as well as cheating people by fake promises.
          Their customer care executives tells something on phone call and keep on following you until they forces you to buy products but when in terms of confirmation they never get back to you. Always saying will sort out but never sorted.

          I will not recommend anyone to buy any product from India Today group as they are the most corrupted website online.

          Anyone having any solution for filling complaints, please let me know, I want to file a legal complaint against them.

            Hi,

            I am Mahesh from Pune. My bagittoday member id is ITBC10413730. On 2nd July I put purchase order through bagittoday. This I did by seeing quarter page ad from India Today group in ‘Sakal’ news paper dated ‘02/07/2010’. I thought as this ad was from India Today group which is brand to trust. I put my order by paying thru IVR system using my credit card. I can see money of worth 3298/- got debited from my credit card on 2nd July. During booking this order person communicated me that I will receive my kit in next 14 days. That means by 16th July I should have received it. He did not mention any condition of stock availability by that time.

            After booking this, I received email notification from them. In it, it was mentioned that I will receive my order in 14 days. Still date I haven’t received my ordered material and still day before yesterday I did not received any communication on any kind of delay in this delivery. When I sent email to [protected]@bagittoday.com for asking about status, I received communication that they are not having material in stock. I am doing follow up with them on this but not receiving any good answer to justify delay.

            As this is from India Today group, after this I tried to collect diffrent email contact from http://www.indiatodaygroup.com/contact.php website.

            I forwarded my Complaint to below people:

            INDIA TODAY BOOK CLUB

            Contact:

            Vivek Gaur,
            CEO, Competent House,

            Subscriptions & Customer care
            Email: Sunil Raina’s Office

            Still date I did not recieved any reply from them. I got multipule reply from [protected]@bagittoday.com. In one reply it was mentioned that material is arrived and now it is in stock. THey will be sending it in 2 days. And in another email they mentioned that it is not in stock and still 10 days require for them to send it my way.

            I am very upset with the kind of service which bagittoday providing to me as customer and now they are saying that it will take few more days to deliver my order. The kind of communication which I am receiving is frustrating and I really don’t know about how much I have to trust these people going ahead.



            I would like to make humble request to you to please look into this issue to get it resolved ASAP. I would also like to request other people to think twice before putting order with bagittoday.com.

            Thanks!!!

            Complaint marked as Resolved 
            I checked this consignment number-[protected] through Aramex courier for status. Right now the status is on HOLD. the reason which I recived from them is - Octroi details are not provided by sender. THey are waiting for email from you since from 26th July. Still date no reply from your side. I tried to call customer care number[protected]. the person on phone mentioned me that he is forwarding this to concern department.

            I am not sure about what kind of service bagittoday is providing to customer. First you people (bagittodya) delayed my order. then now that order is on HOLD. I am doing follow up with customer care department but no satisfactory action is taken still date from your end.

            Please do needful on this!

            THnaks!!!
            Mahesh.
            i have recieved one mail of bag it today, that i have declared a winner.i like to know about this mail, yet i not understand this mail.

              Can anybody tell me what’s going on ,? Firstly you are not delivering the material on time then If I am cancelling the order then you are not going it also.

              Pls cancel the order & return the amt back to me on immediate basis. I don’t want to keep any relation with ITBC it’s the biggest fraud company.

              I don’t know what is the system you have , if you are not able to provide any customer support.

              Pls revert when I am getting my money back?

Then on 13th April I had call your customer support no , from their I got the information that due to some payment mismatch my order had not been executed , you executive had asked me to send the copy of my credit card Statement along with Transition id.

              Now let me know is this the way to do the business you are simply cheating the customers .

              Pls let me know the exact status of material or refund my amt on immediate basis. Else I have to go to consumer court for the same.

              Regards

              i have a similar compain.

              LIVING MEDIA INDIA LIMITED / INDIA TODAY BOOK CLUB / BAG IT TODAY — MONEY NOT REFUNDED AFTER 2 YEARS OF CANCELLATION OF ORDER

              Dear Sir,

              My membershib number with ITBC (India Today Book Club of Living Media India Ltd.) is ITBC 08786103 vide which I had ordered for some DVDs. I had paid Rs. 2,598/- through my credit card. However, later due to some reason the order was cancelled. I have been following up with this company from last 22 months by phone and emails but they have still not refunded my money.

              There is absolutely no responses to emails. On phone calls I am told that the complaint is been forwarded to concerned dept. and some one will get in touch with me. However, this has not happened in last 22 months.

              I have also sent the statement of the credit card as a proof but of no avail. I have closed my credit card account some months back and therefore requested them to send payment by cheque which is still awaited and there is no update from this company.

              Regards,


              Suraj Raidas

                    Hi,

                    This is Ramesh. I did buy a watch from BAGITToday through online service on 15th March, 2010 worth of 4,290/-. The Ordrer ID:[protected]. They said that the order will be dispatched within 2-3 weeks, but I didn't receive the order. So I called the custom care and informed then they said it was returned us, will dispatch again, then I waited again for 3 weeks and called the customer care again. They said we are going to dispatch it. By seeing that irresponsible services, I cancelled the order on 14th April, 2010. They said it will take 21-28 working days to refund the amount. I don't what these guys need 28 working day to refund amount. They said me to following to the email id [protected]@bagittoday.com with subject ONLINECOMPLIANTS.

                    It crossed one month still I didn't get the refund amount. When I called the custom card they said Reference Number need to be generated, which was not done. finally reference number was generated on 4th June, 2010. I have been following up frequently, every time I was getting the same statement repeatedly "we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, Kindly wait for some more time and you will receive your refund very soon."

                    Still I didn't get my refund amount. This is a fraud service, am advising never use this service.
                    Hi
                    I ordered
                    "Hottest Sale of the week: Reebok Roller Coaster Shoes @ 60% off with Free gifts worth Rs 8999" on 12th May 2010. I have not received the items yet, I contacted them by email, they said my address was wrong, although my address was 100% correct, then they told me they will send it again, they have been promising in email that I will receive the items soon, but so far nothing happened.
                    I asked them for refund, now they don't even respond my emails.

                    I think this is a fake company, the guys behind this company are cheaters. This company should be closed.
                    http://consumergrievance.com/icrpc.org.about.htm
                    I have made online payment for purchasing clothes through Bagittoday website. My total payment is rupees1995 and
                    order id 33446304. later Bagittoday has confirmed that my order cannot be processed. its been already 5 months and yet there is no refund of my payment. kindly process my issue at the earliest

                        Pls refer to all the email communication below which may look to be very long but clearly states the irresponsible behavior of India Today Book Club.

                        I am completely disturbed mentally & in the financial crunch due to non-refund of my cancelled orders by India Today even after so many weeks now. I do not have any guarantee of getting refund which is causing more & more mental harassment of mine for which only ITBC is responsible.

                        Seek your support to get this issue resolved.

                        Regards.

                        I am not sure why these mails are going round & round without clear cut answer from ITBC. Can I get the clear answer about cancellation & also the date for refund of amount back to my credit card amounts without further delay ??

                        Dear Sukant,

                        Thanks for your clarification but it is not clear at all & in line with my queries. I am neither satisfied with the answers as for every order placed by me, I was told that this is mandatory to enter the sweepstakes & that would be the last purchase required to enter in the sweepstakes. Even after this, there were some more calls to book further orders which I refused.

                        At the end, I am firm on my decision of cancellation of orders due to distrust in my mind about ITBC. As requested by you, I have already rejected your first delivery of DVD player today. Hope other two orders have been already cancelled by you for the despatch itself & will not my come to me for delivery.

                        Pls confirm URGENTLY when the amounts will be credited back to my credit card accounts on urgent basis to avoid charging of interest on the same.

                        Best regards.

                        Thanks for the clarification. However pls confirm the following :
                        I was told that order processing will take minimum 2 weeks. Pls confirm why you are not able to hold the despatch of these products to me.
                        What does it mean by order is completely processed ?
                        When will I get my payment back ?
                        Were the comments from your tele shopping team correct ?
                        What is the truth about sweepstakes ?
                        Will there be any deduction in refund of money to me ?

                        Await for your confirmation on all above questions. Based on your answers, I will decide the further course of action.

                        Best regards.

                        Dear Ankita,

                        All these orders were booked by me based on your teams confirmation that these orders are must for continuing my participation in the sweepstakes. Every time I use to get the promises that this will be the last order to be booked but almost every/alternate day I was getting for booking of new order being must to continue entry for the sweepstakes.

                        I was also given following false promises :
                        I am out 21 final entries for the final draw of sweeptakes.
                        I will be the only candidate from Maharashtra to contest here.
                        There is 99 % of chance to win 1 lac or 8 lac price only if I book these orders or else my chances are very rare.
                        Even on Sunday I got another call again that I need to book another one (fourth) order (from Amit) so that I can get locking code from them which is must to have for a winner of sweepstake & even if I am a winner, i will not get the prize without this locking code.
                        I was scared of being cheated by all this & hence when I checked with you customer service finally, I was told that none of the purchases are must to confirm entry in the sweepstakes. Even when I told this to your order booking staff (who was forcing me to book the order everytime by instructing that these purchases are must for me to enter in the final sweepstakes), I was told that customer service is not aware as sweepstakes are keeping all the things confidential & hence CS may not be aware of this. When I called CS again, I was not given a clear answer about the sweepstakes confusing me more & more.

                        When I checked in the internet about this sweepstakes, I could find only the complaints about this for every year & no document is available to confirm its genuineness.

                        Pls note that I am feeling cheated with all this episode & I am disturbed mentally also as i made these purchases even though I was not having enough money with me & had to pay interest for all these amounts for credit cards, just because I was told that these orderings are must for sweepstakes. You are kindly requested to cancel all the three orders placed by me & ensure that the money is immediately refunded in my respective credit card accounts.

                        Best regards.

                          Address: Bangalore, Karnataka

                          I had received a call from Bagit today saying that I had won Gold Box worth Rs. 4lakhs in which I will receive either cash, Gold or products and will not have to pay any additional amount but need to make some purchases which I did. The details are mentioned below. Once I confimed the purchases by paying thru ICICI credit card, the excutive confirms that I have won gold worth Rs. 4lakhs which can be purchased from any of the outlets and I need not pay any extra amount and these are not discount vouchers.

                          Later, I get a verification call and the executive tells me that I have won Gold vouchers which can be used as discount vouchers only through online purchases made and I immediately instructed the executive to cancel my order. I would want to ensure that my money is refunded at the earliest. I have also logged a call with customer care (Mr.Imran) asking them to cancel my booking and refund the amount at the earliest. (Mail sent to [protected]@bagittoday.com, [protected]@bagittoday.com attached below)

                          Dear Sir/Madam

                          As already informed, I would like to cancel the below bookings made by me on 6th/7th July'10. This is because your executive has given us wrong commitment on the Gold Box offers. Appreciate your immediate action on this and ensure the amount is refunded to my credit card at the earliest.

                          Thanks for posting this. I also received a call today from India Today saying I can win 5KG Gold by buying products worth 30, .000/-. I started searching internet for any fraud calls.
                          On 19.07.2010 one Mr. Prashant Paliwal from Phone[protected]India Today) rang me intimating of my being chosen as a lucky winner. I was told to make certain puchasings like 22" Samsung LCD TV; Philipd Sound System; Samsung Camcorder; Diamond Voucher etc. and got Rs. 52 thousand paid thru (non-human interface) Debit Card. It was told that the winning amount plus the puchasing details will be mailed by noon. But even after 2 days they haven't sent me any mail. They say that their Server is down.
                          The persons who negotiated the deal are Shri Prashant Paliwal; Ms. Shruti; Mr. Sandeep & Mr. Pranab Subbarwal. The recordings of all phone calls are available.
                          They all are cheat and the alternative India Today & bagit Today Numbers are just not helping nor are denying. The numbers are[protected]; [protected]; [protected].
                          India Today Book Club is the biggest cheat I've ever come across. They lure you into buying products saying that you are the only lucky winner in the whole of India, and then you don't get ANYTHING free.
                          Luckily, I escaped this gold box offer because of my previous bad experience.

                          Its time something must be done against them. Some legal action. Or at least we can create awareness that people don't get lured into this.
                          i have done a payment to excutive of bag it today for gold offer at 3 & 4 Sep. 2010 so please tell me what should i do ????

                          Thanks & Regrds

                          Bag it today is definitely a fraudulent co.
                          They will never send any gold box. Even if they send you vouchers to purchase surat diamond jewellery, you can yse only one voucher of Rs. 5000/- value ( rest of the money u have to pay for purchasing ) for one transaction. The jewellery they send is available in the market ta 1/3 prize. So, pl do not order any jewellery purchase through vouchers.
                          Bag it today promises to club 4 vouchers at a time, but they will never do and can not do so.
                          SO NEVER DO ANY TRANSACTIONS FROM BAG IT TODAY ( INDIA TODAY GROUP )

I have been cheated of Rs.7498+7498+4998 and till now not got my money refunded almost 2 months over. I will defintely sue the company in consumer forum.

                              I never expect this type of service from India Today Group. they are really cheating to people.

                              Yesterday I asked for a VPP from my local postoffice saying that a book parcel of Rs.400 is came from Living Media (I) Ltd, New Delhi - 55, when I've no idea of what this concern is, even I never placed any such order with this concern before. And now when I'm seeing others' complaints also in this respect, I think this is a trial of forge money from others.

                                INspite of numerous followups on email and even phone, we are just getting standard replies that the gifts will be sent in 3-4 weeks time.

                                We would like strong action to be taken against the magazine for indulging in mal-practices.

                                Thanks

                                We still haven’t received the gifts and it has been an endless wait since last October.



                                Can you please refund our money at the earliest.



                                Thanks

                                We apologize for inordinate delay in the delivery of the alternate gift of “Ghk 4 Soups Mugs”.

                                Hi,



                                Even after the lapse of 4.5 months we still haven’t received any gifts so far. We are really surprised at unprofessional and callous attitude of your subscription department.



                                Could you please have this closed within this month or else refund our subscription money.



                                Thanks

                                Raman

                                Importance: High



                                Hi,



                                We had sent the form for 2 year subscription for the Magazine – Good Housekeeping, in the name of Mrs Anupama Tyagi. The payment has been remitted through Credit card (amex Platinum) and our account has already been debited for this.



                                It has been almost two months but we are yet to receive the first issue of the Magazine – Good Housekeeping.



                                Could you please look into this and revert with the status of our subscription.

                                Thanks & Regards
                                Raman Jain

                                India Today — Non delivery of subscribed Copies & No revert to the mails by Customer Care

                                I had subscribed to the India Today ( English ) for an year by paying through my Credit Card in January 2008. My First Copy was delivered to me in the last week of March 2008. After that I never recieved the Complete Copy ( The Free supplements / magazines were not delivered) Some issues were totally missed. I made acomplaint to the Customer Care thrice ( 14th April, 22nd April & 30th April ) but there was no revert to my last two mails in which i had written about cancellation of my subscription due to poor & incomplete deliveries even after making advance payment for one year.
                                My subscription ID is - "ITE1838125"

                                Kindly help,

                                Regards,
                                I think India Today is indulging in Unfair Trade Practices and really making a fool out of people. The group is taking advance payments from the customers and not delivering them the promised magazines or gifts. Even I have heard of the same oproblem from some of my friends, that they do not recieve the complete copy of their subscribed magazines. In the market the magazine is available with an extra / Free magazine and some small gift product where as the same are not delivered to the subscribed customers. Moreover the magazines are available in the market 4-5 days before they reach the subscribed customers.
                                So what is the benefit or use of blocking ones money for recieving lesser amount of products in return.
                                May be the company thinks that the customers who have already subscribed to their magazine for longer periods cant complaint or go for any other magazine.
                                This is a real unfair trade practice being run by the India Today Group and all o[censored]s should stand up against the same. The Company should also be ordered to refund the subscription amounts of the willing customers giving valid reasons...

                                Regards,
                                Karan Sharma

                                Non Receipt of Post — Irratic postal Delivery

                                I live in Vasai and should be serviced by the Navghar Post office with a pin code of 401202. The way the post office operates leaves much to be desired from Government employees. We at Mahavir Complex, Golden Park Vasai West 401202 have not received our mail for more than a month and this is a regular feature. The post men of this post office are busy doing their personal work as Agents for National Saving Certificates and all other Government Schemes rather than the job for which they are being paid. We have not received our telephone bills, credit card bills etc and therefore will be liable for paying late fees etc. Can something be done to improve the situation or will the public have to go there with some tv channel and expose the GOVERNMENT SERVANTS?

                                    Hello,

                                    I had recieved a call from India Today Book Club on 21st April 2010. The caller was a lady (I do not remember the name) and she told me that I have won a cash prize of Rs.1 lac based on my previous transactions with India Today. In order to get the cheque for this 1 lac Rs, she had told me that I have to pay Rs.15,000 as a tax to the Govt.She had told me that I can do it by buying one of the product from below three options. The products offered were Samsung Superb Mobile S5560, Samsung Omnia Touch screen mobile and an X-box. That time I had bought Samsung Omnia Mobile for Rs.14998 with transaction ID[protected]. After the transaction, I was given one HDFC bank cheque number from the lady. The cheque number was 910450. I have recieved the mobile. During that time, I was informed that the cheque will be signed by her higher officials and I will recieve a cheque in 30 days (i.e. before 21st May 2010). But, it has already been 3 months and till now I have not got any cheque. I am not sure if it was the fraud call.

                                    And now, if I try to track this transaction details, by calling[protected], I get an answer saying that the transaction ID which I have mentioned above is in the name of Mr. Vikrym Dala. I dont know how this has happened. The customer care executive assisted me to write a mail to this ID.

                                    I request you to track this transaction and do the needful. I was not in a need of any mobile, but I have bought due to all the good experiences I had with India Today. But with this particular call, I have been cheated by ITBC.

                                    I request you to track this transaction and write back the details. As I know, each call made by ITBC to its customers is recorded. With that, I am sure it is not difficult to trace back the call.

                                    Details
                                    My membership ID : ITBC 09118323
                                    Booking ID:[protected]
                                    Date of placing order:21/04/2010
                                    Payment mode: Credit Card – ICICI.
                                    I request you to take up the issue with ITBC and help me tracing out whether the call I recieved was Fraud or I have missed the cheque because of non-delivery.

                                    Thanks in advance.

                                    I have had a similar experience, but no action has been taken by ITBC even after 7 months. Hope the government takes notice of all these complaints!
                                    The credit card statement has been sent to [protected]@bagittoday.com and [protected]@indiatodaybookclub.com. Please look into this issue.

                                      This is Bala Subrahmanyam.M from Hyderabad. Last month I got one mail which showing some good offer from India Today Book Club

                                      link: http://www.offers.indiatodaybookclub.com/b994/inner.jsp

                                      The link offers "Encyclopedia jumbo-pack (3 multimedia CD-ROMs) pack worth Rs. 1493 at just Rs 499 and 1 year BooksBuddy membership worth Rs 300 free, a Tupperware box worth Rs 330 free and a diamond jewellery voucher worth Rs 5000/- FREE. You saved over Rs. 4990"

                                      I was impressed and took the opportunity

                                      But today I took my parcel by paying Rs.603/- from post office and realized that the Invoice No.ORA[protected] vide order no. OGA[protected] which is not matching with my order number is MITBC-WEB-1679047 and gifts you mentioned in web link. Regarding this I called to the phone number mentioned in Invoice.[protected], by mentioning my invoice number immediately the irresponsible costumer service people simply disconnected.

                                      I'm not ready to take this holiday package offer instead of diamond jewellery voucher worth Rs 5000/-

                                      Please guide me on this matter for further (legal) proceedings. I've all the documents.

                                      These are some of the calls details recorded.I think the amount(money) spend & mental harrasment has occured so much that now to call them also feels like torturing myself only.It's easy to understand that the amount spend on STD from Mumbai to Delhi is definately double than the total cost of Movie voucher @588/- but fact has to be accepted.

                                      Also besides phone calls I have even tried by officially writing to them on their e-mail id [protected]@indiatodaybookclub.com

                                      The e-mail dates forwarded to them are follows

                                      Dates:11, 13, 21 & 25 May'09 in the month of May'09
                                      June Month : 08, 29, 30 in the month of June'09
                                      July month : 06, 13, 21, 30 in the month of July'09
                                      Aug Month : 03, 12, 24 in the month of Aug'09
                                      Sep month : 07, 17, 30 in the month of Sep'09
                                      & finally on 07thOctober, 2009.

                                      Infact now it seems like they have stopped answering on e-mails( previously at least u recd back hearing from them as regretting on non-delivery of parcel) & phone lines will keep u atleast 10 to 20 minutes on hold. I[censored] have so much patience then go ahead & try them.

                                      I request all the people that pl beware of such false offers & do not get trap by the name of INDIA TODAY GROUP.
                                      If any one has any solution to this problem pl contact me.

                                      Thanks,
                                      Sandeep
                                      I have had a similar experience, but no action has been taken by ITBC even after 7 months. Hope the government takes notice of all these complaints!
