India Today are biggest thugs

Dear Sir/Madam,

I booked an order vide order no. OGA[protected] dated 23rd May'09 wherein a smart college kit was ordered. In the Invoice the model no of sunglasses is different(i.e., 6OCCU3696) whereas the sunglasses which was sent by you is 6OCCU3698. this is definitely a breach of contract and i feel duped. It is a settled law that if someone places an order for peas he cannot be obliged to accept beans.without opening the packet delivered to us, we could not have ascertained the dirty mischief played by you otherwise we would have rejected this delivery there n then.this is a glaring case of breach of condition under the sale of goods act entitling me to repudiate the contract and claim the refund along with damages.

India Today Book Club — Non receipt of bag & cds

One month before I got an email from IRCTC ([protected]@irctc.co.in ) regarding a offer (Claim your FREE adidas bag & 2 FREE bestsellers ). I purchased this package which included Adidas bag and 2 CDs by doing payment through my credit card. BUT I have not recived my package.

Money Today — Non receipt of assured free gift

I subscribed to Mail today in February 2008 and was assured of a free gift : Personalised Visiting card holder

Order Number MTD-WEB[protected]

I sent an E-mail earlier and received a response stating I must wait for few more weeks since it was too early to start complaining.  Sadly, I could not retrieve the copy of that mail.  However, today I spoke to Mr Amrinder who was kind enough to hear my grievance but I would like to document my submission in writing as well, hence this E-mail

Since my subscription commenced on 3 April 2008 (confirmed by Mr Amrinder) it has been more than 12 weeks now (almost double of the higher limit) than the promised time frame.

I am very dissatisfied and shocked on such lethargy by a corporate group which must set standards for others to follow.

And yes, the assured gift was one of the prime reasons I subscribed the magazine and would not rest till the needful is done.

India Today Book Club — Non receipt of adidas bag worth 499/- and holiday voucher worth 5000/-

Sir/Madam
I had through VPP purchased twice from india today book club bestseller. The offer claimed that free adidas bag worth Rs 499/- and free holiday voucher worth 5000/- will be sent after the VPP is accepted. The problem was that on logging at the site the membership no. and the invoice did not match due to which I was unable to claim the offer (both are given below)
What is the use of making such offer if it cannot be claimed.
You are requested to look into the matter.

India Today Book Club — Non receipt of Encyclopedia CDs and Free Gifts

In response to an e-mail sent by ITBC, I had ordered encyclopedia CDs on 25th June 08 (Order Id: MITBC-WEB[protected]. The payment was immediately done using credit card. However, as of 13 Sep 08, I had not received any CD or free gifts excepts offers to buy more items and get more freebies. I contacted ITBC in August and I was ensured there was some problem but now you will receive CDs within a week. When I contacted them 15 days later, I was told CDs were out-of-stock and we have sent it on 24 Aug and even given me the consignment number. Again calling on 10 sep, I was told that CDs were dispatched on 5 Sep and consignment number was same as given before.
If I will not get the CDs (leave aside the freebies), I am going to take legal actions against ITBC.
Its really a shame on such a brand name like "India Today". This is what INDIA had become TODAY.
Based on my such personal experiences and to help others from being cheated, I will request you to read and circulate article on how to be a smart customer. The article is "Don't Trust The Trusted Brands" available at:

Living Media India Ltd — non receipt of books

Dear,

I had ordered a set of books on 16/07/08. The pymnts was of rs 574/- through credit card.

My Name - Chinar Redkar
Credit card - HSBC
Address - Sovereign, 502, Rd4, central Avenue, Kalyaninagar, Pune -06.

It has been a month but I have no communication from the co. regarding the delivery of my books with a free gift of 3 CD's, a set of tupperware & a diamond set.

It is extremely shameful that the such marketing strtegies which dupe people of their money are carried out.

I think The co should refund my money or just give me the delivery of my books.

Thanks & regards

This is the third time I am complaining regarding the non receipt of CD's & the gifts. I have been robbed of Rs 574/-

& http://offers.indiatodaybookclub.com/offers.htm wherein I was directed to furnish requested details viz.Unique Code, ITBC Membership No, Invoice No & Email.
Despite of furnishing all details( Unique Code:[protected]A[protected], ITBC Membership No:.0GA[protected], Invoice No: ORA[protected], Email :[protected]@canbank.co.in) the site is throwing the error please fill in correct details. The same was brought to their notice and I was advised to log in after 48 hours. Even after 48 hours despite of several attempts the result was the same. I sent several mails to them including to their executives in this regard but I didn't hear any response from them. They are deceiving the members by prompting gifts offers.

Once they come to know of your credit card details they are debiting your card without your consent for the books/CDs which we have not purchased/received and duping the members.

Please any body can guide me/public how to prevent such acts and expose them for their dubious acts and punish for cheating the public.

I had registered for Rs.60 lacs sweepstake entry on the mail received from [protected]@irctc.co.in. Thereafter I got a mail from India Today Book Club (ITBC) for successful registration in the sweepstake entry with passcode.

Thereafter I got a phone call from ITBC offering 20 devotional CD's @Rs.2249. In return they have informed the following freebies worth Rs.14000/- would be provided alogwith the CD's :

1. Reebok Shoes (they have taken my shoe size)
2. Voucher worth Rs.7000 for air travel in India.
3. Holiday voucher for Rs.5000
4. 1 key chain
5. 1 leather purse.

Today I have received vide their invoice no.ORA[protected] only the CD's, key cahin and purse whereas all other things as above have not been received.

On speaking to them they have informed to log on their website bookstoday.in/promos.htm and claim free gifts by mentioning the unique identification number.

Unfortunately after trying several times it is not being logged and shows error in the identification number.

ITBC have failed in their commitments and have failed to deliver the freebies and now are giving excuse of logging on their sites for claiming the gifts. It is misleading and people are fooled after they have made the payment.

The matter is to be taken up seriously with them and ensure they fulfil their committments or pay the money back to me alonwith penalty and fine so that such things are not repeated in future.

Non receipt of free gifts
I had registered for Rs.60 lacs sweepstake entry through envelop
Thereafter I got a phone call from ITBC offering 20 devotional CD's @Rs.2249. In return they have informed the following freebies worth Rs.14000/- would be provided alogwith the CD's :

1. Reebok Shoes (they have taken my shoe size)
2. Voucher worth Rs.7000 for air travel in India.
3. Holiday voucher for Rs.5000
4. 1 key chain
5. 1 leather purse.

I have received vide their invoice no.ORA[protected] only the CD's, whereas all other things as above have not been received.

On speaking to them they have informed to log on their website bookstoday.in/promos.htm and claim free gifts by mentioning the unique identification number.

Unfortunately after trying several times it is not being logged and shows error in the identification number.

ITBC have failed in their commitments and have failed to deliver the freebies and now are giving excuse of logging on their sites for claiming the gifts. It is misleading and people are fooled after they have made the payment.

The matter is to be taken up seriously with them and ensure they fulfil their committments or pay the money back to me alonwith penalty and fine so that such things are not repeated in future.

Till date I only recd. a pair of REEBOK SHOES -
THE VOUCHERS THAT WERE SUPPOSED TO BE GIVEN FOR DIAMOND JEWELLERY; AND A HOLIDAY PACKAGE Has not been sent - they have now asked me to fill in a unique promotion No. - they have not provided me with any such no. so whenever I try to put in a no. that they have now given me on the phone; it shows an error.

I have therefore asked them to refund my amount of Rs.2599/- as I am absolutely dissatisfied with their lack of professionalism. It is obvious they are a scam organisation and promising gifts whereas its just FALSE PROMISES.

I have also asked them to cancel my current order for the AGATHA CHRISTIE dvds., as I realised that they are not fulfilling their promises for free gifts. In this case they have to reimburse the amount of Rs.2598

LIVING MEDIA INDIA LTD. — Non functional web address to claim gifts against CDs ordered

India Todays book club advertised sale of set of 16 audio CDs "Sur Saaz aur Taal" for Rs.1999/- + Rs.500/- handling charges. They had advertised to give one Track suit & one 2 days all paid Hotel stay voucher on this purchase. I received the set of CDs & track suit. However, to claim Hotel stay voucher they sent the bill with inscription to claim this gift by logging on to www.bookstoday.in/promos.htm. However this address opens the complaint page only. On telephone they assure that the site is working. I am trying the site for last one & half month. The gift voucher can be claimed within 2 months. My order no. is OGAO80260842 but the web address given in their invoice appears to be wrong & misleading, so I am not able to claim the gift voucher. Please reply on my mail with correct address or gift voucher details.

living media — about free gifts

On 12 Feb. 09, I received a call from India today Book club saying that my entry for India today book club is chosen as final entry to receive some prize money of 50000 Rs plus some free gift vouchers of about Rs. 14000 including some Air Travel package. ( I was sending these entries for this lucky draw type prize from India today book club for sweepstakes of Rs. 2400000 from about last six months or so )

And to claim the free gift I have to pay only 400 Rs. ( for what I don’t know?) and I was asked to pay it by Credit Card only. So I told my credit card no. and to enter my CVV no. I was transferred to some other automated system. After that I was given the booking ID no.[protected] and I was told that I will receive this gift within 2 or 3 weeks.

But that day I received a message from my credit card bank that I have made a transaction of Rs. 2598 with Living Media. ( I was told 400 Rs. By the person from india today book club )

After some days I received a message that my order 0GA[protected] for Rs. 2598 has been dispatched. I got it yesterday and it is a set of about 12 to 13 books ( which I haven’t ordered at all) .

On the invoice it is written that claim your free gifts by logging on to www.bookstoday.in/promos.htm.

When I am trying to claim my free gifts on this link it is giving me message that I have made incorrect entries.

When I called the customer care number on 26 Feb. 09, I was put on hold for about 8 min., but my call was not connected to any person to talk for assistance to claim the free gifts.



So please assist me in this matter.



Is it the way India Today Book Club is earning money by betraying the customers by telling them something else and sending something else that has not been ordered at all and asking for some small amount and deducting an amount much more greater than it from the credit card?

India Today Book Club — Non receipt of CD & Free Gift - Money already paid

I had ordered TWO sets of Element audio CDs on Dec 31st, 2008 vide order number OGA[protected]. The costing of each set was Rs 1499 including delivery charges. The payment against the order was made through my credit card. The total amount for TWO sets was Rs 2998 which has already been paid to the Credit Card company.

The order for only ONE set was processed and delivered to me on around Jan 10th vide invoice number ORA[protected]. On receipt of only ONE set, I immediately called the India Today Book Club, and they assured me to send the second set at the earliest. I made numerous calls and everytime I was assured that the second set would be sent to my address. Again, I made the call today, and I was told that the system is not working and I was asked to call again tomorrow. I

t is been almost 2 months that I paid India Today the full amount, and have been following up but no one has taken any complaint or feedback seriously. I know many other people in my office who are facing the same issue. Not sure if it is a racket run by India Today to resolve their liquidity problem during this recession time.

Apart from the non receipt of CDs, I have following other points to highlight :

1. The condition of CD & free gift is pathetic. I was planning to give one set to my friend who lives overseas but now looking at the condition of the CDs, I am reluctant to do so.

2. The quality of Customer Service staff is so bad that they don't know what they are checking and responding.

3. Claiming of free gift is so cumbersome that consumer might think of just leaving it.

I would request the authorities to look into my complaint and improve the quality of product offered & customer service. I have lot of faith on India Today (have been a regular subscriber of India Today magazine and Mail Today), and don't want to loose that trust & faith due to this transaction.

I am available on mobile [protected].

Look forward to early response.

India Today — Non delivery of products ordered in spite of full advance

Dear Sir

Two month ago i have book one order in India Today Book Club through Internet, actually i receives the mail from them as a free gift but for that i have to pay Rs 2599/ amount.

I have paid the money through my icici credit card, but still on date i didnt receive that order. Moreover i had called many times to customer care but as per them i have not paid the money but when i receive the call from their verification department, they told i have paid the money & very soon i will get my order.This show the communication gap/loop hole in the departments.

I have receive my icici credit card statement, in which it is reflecting that i have paid the money to India Today Book Club.

This process is repeating from last two month, so many times i have intimate them but vain.

Now i do not want that order but i want my money back, so kindly help me for the same and tell me the procedure.

India Today Book Club — AFTER MAKING PAYMENT OF RS.2599/-, DELIVERY OF GOODS HAS NOT BEEN MADE

I had given an order through website vide order No.OGA[protected] and also swap the credit card. The details of the order are given below:-

1. 20 pack of CD
2. Gift voucher of Rs.5, 000/-
3. Air-ticket of Rs.7, 000/-
4. Reebok Shoes
5. Surprise Gift i.e. Wallet

The aforesaid order was made during the month of November, 2008. But when I received the statement of credit card, I surprised to see that the card was not swaped as the payment was not mentioned in the card. I immediately contacted over telephone No.40502424 to know the status of my order. They have confirmed that the aforesaid items will be delivered to you within 15 days time and payment may be made by cash. But after repeated requests, I have not received the items. They had also given the consignment No.[protected] of T&T Transporter. When I visited the site of T&T Transpoters, it has been found that the iterms were shiped on 4th December, 2008 but the same was undelivered and returned to the orgin on 23rd December, 2008. It is not understood why the article was shown as undelivered even it was not received to my office address.

HOWEVER, AGAIN I CONTACTED AND THEY HAVE REQUESTED TO FIRST PAY THE AMOUNT THAN IT WILL BE DELIVERED. ACCORDINGLY, ON 9TH FEBRUARY, 2009, MY LINE WAS CONNECTED TO THE CONCERNED DEPARTMENT AND ACCORDINGLY I HAD MADE THE PAYMENT THROUGH CREDIT CARD. I WAS GIVEN THE BOOKING ID NO.[protected] AND CODE NO.OGA[protected]. BUT STILL I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE ITEMS.

TODAY, WHEN I RECEIVED MY CREDIT CARD BILL, I NOTED THAT PAYMENT HAS BEEN SHOWN IN MY BILL OF RS.2599/- BUT TILL DATE I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE ITEMS. I AGAIN CONTACTED OVER PHON NO.40502424 AND HAD TALK WITH MR ANKIT. HE CHEKED THE RECORD AND FOUND THAT THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE PAYMENT. I SUPRISED TO SEE AFTER A MONTH, THE RECORD WAS NOT UPDATED EVEN I HAD MADE THE PAYMENT ON 9TH FEBRUARY, 2009. SCAN COPY OF MY CREDIT CARD BILL IS ATTACHED HEREWITH WITH A REQUEST TO EXPEDITE THE ORDER AS I MADE IN THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER AND AGAIN 9TH FEBRUARY, 2009.

I REQUEST YOU TO KINDLY LOOK INTO THE MATTER AND ENSURE THAT THESE TYPEs OF PROBLEMS COULD NOT BE ARISE TO OTHERS.

HOPING FOR EARLY RESPONSE OF THE ACTION TAKEN ON MY REQUEST.

India Today Book Club — Free Gifts associated with buy of 20 CDs

In response to offer of 3D AND 2N holiday package for a couple + Air flight coupon worth Rs 7000 on purchase of 20 CD S @ Rs.2000+500+ postal charges I ordered the same.I received the consignment by VPP which I cleared by paying Rs. 2599 . ( INVOICE NO ORA[protected] DT[protected].
I followed their procedure to claim free gifts and sent through courier all documents along with DD for Rs. 800 . on 10 =02 -2009 . Regretfully the mail came back undelivered with remark " no such address and no response from given Tel. no. Subsequently I have been sending e-mails to different persons since each time I send mail different person replies. The Tel. nos given, of NOIDA office[protected] and New Delhi[protected] are not reachable.( hangs up after being made to wait for 4-5 min )
I wanted to utilise the holiday package before April 20, 2009 which seems impossible now .Next period avalable under the scheme is during winter which may not suit me.
AIR TICKET VOUCHER NO IS IT 8736
UNIQUE CODE[protected]A[protected]
ITBC MEMBERSHIP NO ITBC08765802
If the party is unable to accede to my schedule ( destination and period as proposed and accepted ) I demand that the seller compensate me with the expenses promissed ( holiday voucher Rs 5000 +air ticket voucher Rs.7000) by a DD for Rs.12000 or take back the 20 CD s and pay me Rs.2599+return and miscellaneous charges of Rs.1000 .
In case the party wants to make good the time lost and want to act on request before I send the documents again I want correct postal address and contact tel, no.
I do hope a reputed organisation such as INDIA TO-DAY will act responsibly on my complaint

India Today Book Club — India today book club sucks

Had ordered for Reebok set on 15th January and have not recieved till 26th April. Everytime we called to check the status, we were told that it would take 6 to 7 days. India today book club is completely irresponsible. The way the customer care speaks to you is ridiculous. Someone need to teach them client servicing..Not sure where to go to.

indiatodaybookclub — DOUBLE DEBIT TO MY CREDIT CARD

I received a call from your office on the 15th of September 2010 telling me that I have been picked for some offers. I was told that a sum of Rs.15900/- should be paid by me after 45 days and if I am satisfied with the products that are sent to me. I was asked to provide me my credit card number, which I did. I regret to inform you that you office tells something and does something. Not only they debited my card the same day with Rs.15998/- but also another amount Rs.15798/-. I was shocked to see two debits in my account statement. I was telling them to put everything on mail, which they have not done so far and tell you some thing they spoke to me for about 20 minutes and how do you expect anyone to remember everything they said, that is the reason I asked her to put it on mail. I request you to kindly look into the matter and credit my account with the amounts debited on my credit card. I request you to respond immediately by return mail.

i totally agree to it. i had also placed an order on telephone making payment by my credit card on 21st March 2009. but till date i have not received delivery of goods. u r fortunate enough to get an answer that goods have been despatched, but to my dismay the call center of India Today Group says my name is not reflecting in their data base. whereas payment is being reflecting in my credit card statement. and now nobody is helping me out. i have sent emails to their customer executive, but he is not responding. i really don't know whom to approach. if possible, guide me.

I Have ordered reebok fitness kit on 21/03/2009 via telephone and I told them that i will pay the amount Rs 3199.00 on dilevery. I was informed that goods will be espatched with in 4-5 weeks.

Dear Sir,

I had placed an order for a Reebok Summer Kit for Rs 2499/- with Rs 399/- for processing/ handling charges on 19 Aug 09 vide order no [protected].
While placing the order I had specifically requested for a sipper (and not a cap) as I was paying by credit card and the same was assured to me.
I have recd the package today. But to my horror I find that the Sipper is not enclosed and not only that, the Reebok Sunglasses are also not in the package. You r aware that the sunglasses are the most expensive item in the offer, and the same have not been found enclosed.
All afternoon and evening I have been trying to contact your 'Customer care' no[protected], which I'm sure is a misnomer because not once was I able to get through to speak to anyone, inspite of listening to a ticker tape telling me my call was important to you!!! In resignation I turned to the ordering no on which I had placed my order only to be told to contact customer care, which in anycase was not responding. I requested the lady at the other end to lodge a complaint that customer care was not responding.

This is certainly not expected of a reputed company like yours. It is requested that the deficiencies in the package be made good at the earliest.

Various details on the order form recd on the package are as under:-

I hv ordered one track suit reebok, but till date i hv not recived the same. Kindly confirm my order.

I have ordered for a benetton sun glass on the last week of october 09 and i have recieved an empty box as courier. i have taken this up with their customer service and have registered a complaint on nov3. i have got a response from them saying they will look into the matter. but till now the matter is not resolved and i keep on sending them mails with no response. when ever i call them i get a recorded message saying "your call is important to us" and this goes on for 10 minutes and then they will disconnect the phone. so for every call i make i lose around 10-15 rs. This incident has made me stubborn in my opinion not to do online shopping again.
i hope the authorites will give me a reply.

Sir,
I was in receipt of telephone calls from Indiatoday Bookclub offering me some attactive deals. I was denying all the time. Ms. Jaswinder Kaur was always on line and she repeatedly requested me to buy a camera with 10.2 pixels, with a free gift of wrist wath, Rs.7K for air journey coupons and Rs.5K for hotel stay in anwywhere in India with 3 days and 2 nights stay.
The call was made on 6-Nov-2009 stating that the goods will be delivered within 10-15 days and the shopping was done through credit card.
She gave me regn no. 8463 and contact numbers :[protected] of Indiatoday Club, but i am trying to contact them but with no success. A recorded tape is there but no one speaks.
A telphone number [protected] was also given which connects ICICI bank but with no result.
I shall be grateful if you could kindly help me in this matter.
How i can stop payment, as i have already received a bill through my credit card.
Thanks,
sincerely,

I too had ordered a reebok kit on 28/02/2009 via telephone and paid the amount Rs 3199/- by credit card. However, the size that I had ordered for shoes was 9 and for the track suit was L but I have received the wrong sizes. The shoe size I physically got was 6 and track suit is S. The complaint no. given lays unanswered. Please exchange it or give me other options as soon as possible.

Same nuisance, even after unsubscribing these messags from the india today promotional site this continues.

Also now a days i get calls sayting you are esteemed customer and give more offer in office/night hours disturbing a lot. They cut the phone call later after getting hard talks form me.

Even the mobile service provider is not able to help in this regard.
Suffering past 6 months.

Please help.

India Today is a big fraud co..Either they are not shipping the goods or shipping faque brand & have cheated thousands of consumers/customers.It seems that there is no aurhority, court of law & law enforcing agency who could initiate & take any action against this MEDIA MAFIA. All national awards conferred on its different employees & owners must be withdrawn & serious action be taken against them.

My order No.[protected] of[protected] has not been despatched & no senior person is prepared to respond against my regular enquiries. It has also come to my knowledge that INDIA TODAY is supplying faque & duplicate goods of Chinese origin & nor original REEBOCK products. Can I go to Police & lodge F.I.R. against them? I have already paid them through my credit card.
