India Today Book Club — Non Receipt of Ordered Products

Dear Sir / Madam,
I had placed an order for a set of CD's (Encyclopedia Brittanica : Space & Nature) alongwith a free Adidas bag on internet. The order no. was MITBC-WEB-0554562 dated 10.12.2007.

A copy of the acknowledgement of the order is attached at bottom for your reference.

I have still not received the ordered products though it has been about two months since I placed the order.

I had sent many emails to [protected]@indiatodaybookclub.com on 31.12.2007, 04.01.2008, 16.01.2008, 22.01.2008 and 30.01.2008, but they didn't bothered to reply my mails.

With a backing of brand name like INDIA TODAY, that was not expected from their side.

You are requested to look into my grievance and do the needful. I shall be highly thankful to you.

Thanx and regards,

Amitabh Garga.

Dear Sir,

Greetings!!

As usual I hereby wish to express my dis-satisfaction towards your so called India Today Book Club Services & the pathetic & irresponsible approach adopted by your personnell, especially your Mr. Goyal, Mr Animesh & Ms Priya.

I had unfortunately placed an order (Order No. OG[protected] on 11th January, 2008 worth Rs 2, 144=00 for the following:

1. (F1078) Friend of The Devil @ Rs 420=00
2. (G0952) Double Cross @ Rs 275=00
3. (B1510) Brand Names & Product Dynasties @ Rs 135=00
4. (H1440) Handbook of Training Evaluation @ Rs 315=00
5. (R0680) Roohi Pearl Pendant Set @ Rs 999=00

Out of the above items, Items bearing S.No. 1 & 4 were delivered to me vide Invoice No. OR0G00002180 Dtd. 15 Feb, 2008. The status of the balance is still not known. I have been regularly following up about the status of my order with your office, however never got the right response. They always promise to call back & have never done till date.

This is not the first time, but a routine with your prestigious organization. I guess you all are there only to make money by your so called books buddy...sending across VPP's to customers without their approval/permission. Infact its a big pain to be your member & a big fool of me to have placed regular orders on you, inspite of such irresponsible & unethical service attitude.

My last order (Order No. OG07002615 Dated 19th Oct, 2007) was also completed on 29th January, 2008 ... after more than 3 months ... wherein again delivery of one of the books is still pending.

COULD SOMEONE IN YOUR ORGANIZATION PLEASE BE KIND ENOUGH TO CALL ME BACK & LET ME HAVE THE STATUS OF MY ORDER. I am waiting for a response from your end.

Further please note that incase I donot hear from you within one week I shall be forced to pass on the matter to my legal cell ... who understand their work very well & know what to do with organization like INDIA TODAY BOOK CLUB.

Thanks & regards,
Amit Kapur

Dear Mr. Anshuman Agrawal,



Greetings!!!



This is in continuation to our telephonic conversation right away regarding dissatisfaction towards services extended by your esteemed organization. I am a member of India Today Book Club for the past 4-5 years (Membership No. ITBC[protected] and am procuring books on a regular basis. Whenever I have placed an order for books I have always faced two major problems which have been listed as under:



1. Books are never dispatched in one lot due to shortage of titles. I don't understand so as to why do you include such titles in your catalogue when the same are not available with you??

2. Alot of follow up is required for the dispatch of books which are inherently delayed for over a period of one month.



This time again I had placed an order for books worth Rs 3, 390=00 on 06 June, 2007 as per details enclosed and am sorry to say that till date there is no confirmation from your side so as to when the same shall be available & taken up for dispatch. It's actually very irritating and hence I am bringing the issue to your knowledge with a hope that something positive shall sure be done about the same. I further like to add that such a service deficiency is not expected out of such a reputed publication house like India Today.



I hope that no further follow ups shall be required for supply of books against my current pending order. Awaiting your confirmation with a request to kindly do the needful at an earliest.



Thanks & regards,



Amit Kapur

Dear Sir/Madam

India Today Book Club — Non Delivery of Ordered Materials

I was made an offer on my email by India Today Book Club for Reebock Belt, Benneton Wrist Watch, Rebock Wallet and Rebock Key Chain for Rs 1298/- on 04/03/2009 booked by Priya and was told that the delivery would be made in a fortnight order no. [protected] MITBC/Web/02085271. Since then I have been complaining about 7 times and every time it is delivery within the week. When I asked for refund I was told it is a very long drawn process. When I asked to talked to a senior I was told the senior is busy. Almost two months have passed there is still no sign of any delivery.

Dear Sir,

With reference to your e-mail regarding free Reebok Wallet, Key Chain and Belt, before placing the order I enquired and confirmed about the quality, colour and size of the items, specially BELT. Because it was not totally free, but I had to pay Rs.599 in the way of Precessing/Handling/Wrapping Charges.

On receipt of parcel, instead of feeling happy, I immediately handed over the wallet & Key Chain to someone as the quality of the items was same to such items available at footpath.

But I could not dare to handover the BELT to anyone immediately as not only the size of the belt was too small but it was smelling out badly (raw leather in yellow colour).

At that point of time I thought not to complain anyone. But last week when I opened the same packet, the belt, I received is still smelling badly and forced me to inform you.

Though I have not told anyone in the family that I have paid for it, but I am feeling as cheated.

Thanks & with regards,

India Today Book Club — Non-receipt of books

I had received mail that India Today book club is offering bestseller books at very low price. I had paid 803 using credit card. After 2-3 days, email came confirming the order and said that they are sending by Cash on Delivery (VPP). That is ridiculous when i had already paid for using credit card. CHEATING.. how to proceed. the email ID given by them is not working. Customer Care on Phone is also dropping call.

The same happned with me also, i got a letter stating that prizes would be announced in the issue of 21st april, i found nothing in that issue, some one is cheating for sure!!!11

i received a similar mail through IRCTC website and it being a government agency, i thought it should be genuine. there was an offer of subscription to India today also. i subscibed to it and got some gift books from India Toay. so i strongly believe that this thing has happened with the knowledge of India today group. i mailed to india today group to know the facts about this. but as expected didnt receive any reply. i think it was a cheap strategy from the india today group to increase their subscription.

This is the cheap marketing strategy chosed by INDIA TODAY group. I became a victim for this letters & subscribed for membership. The magazines are not coming at all. Till now I had received 8 copies in the last 5 months.So shame on this group & they kept our country name in their company & they should rename themselves as "CHEATS TODAY".

like others, I, too had received offer from mail today whereon, I had deposited Rs. 999/- for the subscription of two years, after getting temptation from mail today that they had been conducting a Lucky Draw for the person, who were offering their subscription for two years. Now, the site, i.e. [protected]@mailtoday.in, mention for the enrollment for Lucky Draw is not available in the system. I also agree with the fact that this is a cheap markeing strategy adopted by the India Today Group.

I can wait for the result of Draw, which was supposed to happen on, 8th March, 2009, But a`las nothing has happened till date? Pl let us give the organisers 15 days and then blaim them for not holding the random access DRAW, which is probably the case.Thanks for raising a public issue against Media.We have to be vigilant to be cross against the MEDIA, WHICH IS MOST POWERFULL, at the moment.

i have paid Rs 999/- on 10/12/2008 against coupon no. MTNP111196. Till today i have not received the subscription vouchers or the voucher for shoes.
Is it cheating by India Today group.

Living Media India has detected Rs.741 /- from my SBI credit card without my knowledge and not even send any magazine. what is going on?, this is really ridiculous and cheating the geniue people. In stead of this they can beg in front of temple.
Can anyone suggest, how to compliant against this?

Even i have received a VPP parcel today. I have to pay rs 525 to get the parcel. Luckily i live in hostel so no one took the parcel on my behalf.

I am wondering why India Today group has involved itself in such a cheating? I wish that some consumer court or forum should take up the issue and punish them for the same.

i received a book from india today which i didn't even order. nothing was mentioned about the book in the parcel, although i thought it may be my mistake so paid rs.225. i received 2 cd packs of same issue. this is a shame on india today where they practise false marketing strategies. now i received a slip which says me to pay 525rs from railway postoffice. the responsible authorities must be catch hold of this and penalised heavily. if i have ordered any item why didn't they sent that to my address, why i have to go to railway when they gave me some unordered books of same content earlier ??????

adidas bag and books — BAG AND BOOKS NOT RECEIVED EVEN AFTER THE PAYMENT

ON 18-JAN -2008 I PAID 199 .00 FOR FREE ADIDAS BAG AND BOOKS -(INDIA TODAY BOOK CLUB OFFER) . The amount was paid but till now the item is not recieved.Any body can help??

I too had ordered the CD's and Adidas bag as well as the holidaY voucher a month ago.
But hv not yet recieved the bag and voucher., nor do ITBC responds to my mails

I have receieved a letter with a kind of certificate which mentions(Customer of Distinction)dispatched on May 2008
which they say I have been selected as one of their so called
esteemed customer where I will be entitled to recieve free
gift voucher worth Rs.5990/-
Here are their gifts:- 1.Savings of Rs.500 on booksbuddy
- best seller packet.
2. Free 3 days and two nights holiday for a couple worth
- Rs.5000/-
3. Free adidas bag worth Rs.499/-
They are asking me to collect it from the post man by paying
Rs.599/-to claim special savings as customer distinction.
But when I approach my post man located near my area
he says many people just like me had come with this
similar offers but till now, no one has received any sort
of package delivery to be received by them.I am very
disappointed myself coz I thought I did'nt want to miss out
this good opportunity but I feel I have lost hope on this
books buddy who thinks they can satisfy a customer by
promising them with free gift vouchers and gift hampers.
I think it is a sick way to impress customer's.First of all
package should be sent straight to a person's mailing
address or personally be courier.Atleast it is far better than
running behind the post man or get humiliated all the time.
If the package does not reach me within a week or so.I am
never going to subscribe to this so called books buddy also
a partner from India today.

Even i got an Offer email from irctc stating about a jumbo pack encyclopedia and few other free offer. i was tempted and went for it.
i had made an online payment on 17th June. But i have not yet received it.
Do not know what to do. Any one to help please!

I too received an offer from India Today Book Club about getting a package of Swatch and Benetton watches worth rs 8K for 2 K. I was about to pay for the same with credit card, but luckily I searched and find the real nature of fraud as detailed in your web sites. I really extend my hearty thanks to the site owners for a kind of forum like this.
And also, can we do something to stop this dacoity and fraudsters like India Today from looting credulous customers?

India Today Book Club — Not received the full consignment by VPP

SIr,
I ordered for following things from India today book club:
1.Music Today CD
2.T shirt
Travelling bag
they all as per them costred 1100?-
However they had oly sent Music today CD I have not recieved the t shirt and travl bag which was the part of the deal.
Pleaseelt meknow what can be don in this case.

I had bought many books and CDs from India Today Book Club. I like the fact that their customer care is very helpful. For any kind of information one can usually dial their customer care number at[protected] or by sending an email at [protected]@indiatodaybookclub.com.

Hi !!!!! I am Santosh. Recently I moved from Delhi to Bangalore, for which I had taken the service of Skywing Packers and Movers for moving all my house hold items along with car transportation. Out of the the whole things, 1most of the glass items are found to be broken, lot of things are missing and the washing machine that we transported from delhi was in the bad shape. Also lot of costly art items we shifted had gone missing. When I reported them about this they started misbehaving. There are few things I found are:

1. They charge for insurance but that's not used for any insurence claim. So still suspect whether they take the insurence or not as when I asked them for receipt of the insurence claim, they are unable to provide. so better check for it.

2. They used to tell big things at the start, like they will put everything inside the wooden box. But I found they only did the soft pack so lot of items being broken. For broken and misplaced items, when I ask for the claim they just ignore all after repeated calls.

3. They never unpack complete things. They will do part of that in two hours and after getting signature that you received all the items in good condition, they used to leave. They knows once you sign it after that no claim will be entertained. So better careful in that.


So this is a good suggestion for you all that this skywing movers is a big cheater compared to other packers like, Agarwaal packers and prakash packer's. Better don't prefer this bluddy chor and I am really had very bad experiance with these guys, especially with Mr. Hari Om , Mr. Sanjay (For Delhi region )and Mr. Kuljeet (for Bangalore), who are just the most careless person you should handover the things to them.

Be careful. More comments are most welcome.

I have ordered for encyclopedias. i could receive 3 cds but i am not able to enter into the website which they have given for claiming the free gifts. what is this?? Is it s fraud I am left no option but to approach consumer court

Sir,
Sub: VPP package to me and saving of Rs 5990
Ref: your letter to me 2 weeks back (ITBC[protected] signed by Mr. Nitin Sawhney
I had received a mail containing an assured savings offer of Rs 5990 if i receive a VPP package of Rs599. Some details on the savings of Rs5990 were also there in the mail. Now postman has informed me that the package has come.
Before accepting the package, may i know what this package contains? I tried and tried again to see whether ur mail mentions anything on the package contains- but nothing clear is mentioned...How can anybody accept such an offer/package/VPP w/o any knowledge of its contents?
Besides, your offer talks about booksbuddy bestseller packet- is it books or CD? Because you have enclosed some CD labels and your savings offer refers to 'books'...
And no email id for ITBC?
It would be helpful to people if you could clarify. Meanwhile the package is waiting at the PO.
Btw, pls update my home address as

Subject: Wrong Parcel.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I ordered for Britannica Encyclopedia Jumbo Pack and I received Bestsellers package. I have not got any assured gifts also. My order number is MITBC-WEB-1682670. I would urge you to look into matter and send me the correct parcel. Hope to hear from you very soon.

Dear sir,
I received the packet in Vandita Kapoor's name, who is my dughter, and the books I received were not the ones, jackets of which you have sent. Instead I got "Witch of portobello", "World famous serial killers". "Survival of the sickest', and"world famous weird news stories". These books I may not possess, does not matter, but the issue is that the jackets were different and the books different. I personally was waiting for the ones which you have sent with the addidas bag and shoes offer.

India Today Book Club — VPP content

Dear all

As normal security Measures and the consumer rights the person receiving the vpp from Indian Postal services must know the content of the parcel before receiving.

India Today club packing with complete covering without any packing list attached to it. Most of the time repeatedly sending the same book.

Also the Membership No given in their Invoice always wrong. So you can't login to their site what they are going sent.

They keep on changing their website and login procedure without consume's Knowledge

It is my mistake to beleive in their letters. I did not get my delivery of books and other offers after the payment has made .
Kindly send all the stuff immediately . You lost your impression as these complaint board looks.

Hi,

I just got a message to my mobile saying that "Your BooksBuddy pack with savings of Rs 5900 is on its way. Look out for postman. Enjoy bestsellers; free Diamond Jewellery Voucher & Tupperware Box. T&C apply".

I never made any order / payment to send this to my address.

After reading this blog, I lost the credibility about this company and offer. A big NO to this.

Regards,
Senthil Kumaravel

Dear Sir/Madam,

A sum of Rs 450/- was taken by your club for the books not delivered owing to 'out of stock'. A balance of 150 points is also pending for redemption, and allthis for" time immemorial".

And you are sending these unwanted VPPs, ( misusing the members money on postal charges}.

A letter bearing postal stamp[franking] dt 8.8.08 was delivered on 9/9/08 declaring that a vpp has been sent to your address, which had already been returned by the postal authorities.

16 cd saaz pack with offer — not recived corrior

My Complaints are
(a) The consignment which was promised within two to three weeks came after seven weeks.
(b) My emails to your company have not been responded by anyone.
(c) I have a email confirming the payment made to you which I have forwarded in all my mails. I also have confirmation from my credit card that the amount has been paid to your company on 30 Sep. I really donot understand why, firstly, such a shabby service is being provided by you and then insted of compensating for the bad service you are charging me again.
Please reply at the earliest otherwise I would be forced to go to consumer court.

I sent Rs 2000/ for India Today book club otter of 20CD Sacred momentswith a assured free gift, diamond jewellery voucher worth 5000 holiday package and many more.This was sent on 14/09/2008 by Canara Bank, pune Cheque.Neither it is acknowledged nor the 20 CD pack sent .There is no communication.Is it the same India TOday group?

I received a sms saying that my order has been processed, my order number was 0GA[protected], with order value of Rs. 574/- on 19.11.2008. But I have not received any of the items from India Today Book Club since today i.e 29.11.2008.

I opted for a SAAZ Series CD pack worth Rs.2000.00 around 5 months before. I sent 2 cheques worth Rs.600.00 each which has been already debited from my bank account. One day the postman comes and says I have to pay 2000.00 again for that where I was supposed to pay just Rs.800.00. The ITBC number you sent is ITBC08403642. On top of this whenever I call your customer care I need to wait for atleast 30 minutes without geetting any response. This is not the fare business you are doing. You call it customer service!

I have still not received my order no: - 0GA[protected]Member ship no: - ITBC[protected] booked on 21st Dec'08 (Swatch Irony Chrono Black Watch + a Benetton watch as bonus gift).

As per email 10 days back from India Today Book Club, the order had been fully processed.

It is very unfortunate that India Today Book Club cannot deliver an order even after 7 weeks of booking and full payment through credit card amt INR 3199.

The customer care is pathetic, it goes on repeating the welcome sentence "Welcome to India Today...Dial 1 for India Today Book Club...etc." and never proceeds to the next sentence inspite of trying multiple times.

I have not received any email, sms or call confirming the dispatch details.

Please confirm the status of the captioned order on priority.

ITBC — Ordered and paid through internet for bestsellers book..order not recieved till now.

Dear Sir,
On 2nd Jan 2009, I have placed an order of Rs.2598 for 12 best sellers books along with to and fro air ticket and holiday package to any of the destination mentioned in the list. I have paid the money via internet by credit card and i've got confirmation mail as well as sms by ITBC that i have paid 2598 Rs to ITBC and my order will process in 3-4 weeks. In Feb 1st week after some follow up with the call centre i have received 1 pack of CDs ( not books) delivered at my mailing address with an intimation that i have to collect the cd's from post office by paying a charge of rs 2598. When i talked to Call center representative i was told that i should return the pack and my original pack will be sent to me soon. Since then i have called and talked to atleast 10 times with ITBC representatives but i have not received even a single call from ITBC. Once as per the instruction of ITBC rep i mailed my credit card statement as well as copy of confirmation mail from ITBC, but no reply.

I had belief on the brand name of India today as i thought of good service with this offer but i am facing all this problems i now feel that i am trapped and deceived and making my my mind to go legal for the harassment i have faced during all these days after paying the amount instantly.

I would appreciate an immidiate look on tho this matter and provide me the necessary things which i should have got on purchase of the offer of 2598.

India Today Book Club — Payment made in advance but product not recd.

I recd a mail with several offers on purchase of encyclpedia CD set, from India Today Book Club and on 29th August made the payment of Rs. 574 by means of credit card. Despite eight months the product has not been shipped. My request for cancellation of the order and refund of money is also not being responded. I now understand that this is a huge fraud by a well known publication group and I propose to go to the consumer court. How ever before that I wish to take your assitance in getting the issue resolved as a last resort. A collective effort from all the people who have suffered in the hands of this "India Today Book club" needs to be put up to end this fraud and warn the gullible people from falling prey to their fake offers. I am also contacting the MRTPC commission and lodging a complaint.

I have contacted them repeatedly but get the same reply that the delivery will be made in ten days. It never arrives. The address given is also correct.
Can i get any notification if the issue is resolved on my e mail id [protected]@hotmail.com or over phone [protected].

India Today Book Club — Not sending the correct items even though the payments has been taken full

Hi,
I ordered the Reebok kit 4 months ago and I was sent the incorrect sizes for some of the items. When I spoke to the customer services, I was asked to send the items back with the parcel charges and they will send the right sizes along with a cheque for the parcel charges incurred to me. I also have all the details including names and dates, of the communication I have had with them so far.
I am chasing up this with them since then and I have been asked to wait, wait and wait. I want some action to be taken about this. Please advise.

Regards

The ITBC is cheating their members. My transaction IDs are[protected] and[protected] for which the unique IDs not received even after repeated reminders. I need the help of consumer court. We should not leave the company

Dear Prashant Gaur,
I fully empathise with you as i and my relatives are going thru the same agony and harassment at the hands of INDIA TODAY BOOK CLUB.
ITBC are carrying out a fraud of the highest order and cheating citizens of this country by offering schemes, and then forgetting to follow up with customers once they have received the payment.
Beware of these scamsters and stay away from anyone related to INDIA TODAY.
I am just amazed how such a media company is carrying out such cheating... i guess the fact that they are media allows them to cheat people!!

ITBC | Fraudsters and Cheats | Proposal for a Class Action Suit

Hi,

I am Sujata Garimella.

Like you, I too trusted the India Today name and had ordered stuff from ITBC. My experience was awful. I did not get what I ordered for. I did not get the promised "extras". And I did not get any solution either.

This whole nightmare started in September 2009 for me.

To top it all they still keep calling me.

I plan to sue them for Rs. 10 lakhs. I have started an action against them and would like more victims of ITBC's dirty tricks to join in because there is a lot of strength in numbers.
Please click the link below and join in.

http://voip-india.webs.com/itbcsuethem.htm

Like you and me there are lakhs of other victims of ITBC's malpractices. There is a link in the web page above that will take you to a list of the sites on which people have complained. I request you to take the time and send at least 50 of them this mail and ask them to send it forward.

That way we can reach the maximum number of people in the shortest period of time and quickly initiate legal proceedings.

I hope we have 10, 000 people and then, if not getting the money we can at least ensure that the company closes down.

Looking forward to take up arms together with you.

Sujata

Dear Ms. Saluja,



This has reference to my various emails and telephone calls to your office during last one month for refund of the extra amount of Rs.585/- charged towards Cleopatra which has not been received by us. You had also sent a VPP parcel of encyclopedia which we had not ordered for and for which we paid Rs.550/-. I have been regularly following up with your office on email and phone but unfortunately no action has been taken by your office (in fact I have nearly spent the cost of the book on telephone calls made during the past one month).



Would appreciate if you could look into the matter on urgent basis and arrange to refund the amount of Rs.585 + 550 at the earliest.



Your acknowledgement to my mail will be appreciated.



Thanks,



Girija

Dear Shubham,



I had called up your office short while ago but was informed that you were not available.



Would appreciate if you could let me know when the cheque in respect of the excess charged amount as indicated in the correspondence exchanged below will be sent to us..



Further would like to state that last week we received a packet from your club by VPP for which we paid an amount of Rs.550/-. There was no invoice available with the packet. On opening we found that the pack contained CD on encyclopaedia and women power. We have not ordered any CD on this subject. On checking with your office today we were told that this was a promotional offer and we can send back the same and you will return the money. Would request you to kindly return the amount for this pack also as we had not ordered for the same.



Would request you not to send any item in future for which we have not placed an order.



Kindly acknowledge receipt of this mail.



Thanking you

India Today Book Club — amount payed through credit card but till now no delivery and no reply for email

amount charged but no delivery...
I am possibly one of thousands of people cheated by India Today Book Club. I purchased few books on Internet and paid online using my Credit Card many weeks ago but books never reached me. Since the site didn't have any contact number, I sent few emails but then no response is forthcoming.

I think these cheaters need to be taught a lesson.
Unfortunately I am based in a small town and good legal help is not available. Could someone from legal profession guide about the possible course of action that people like us could take against this ongoing fraud by Living Media Group? Is it a simple consumer forum case or cyber crime is also involved in it, kindly let us know.

India Book Club — NO PROPER RESPONSE FOR AMOUNT REFUND

Dear Sir / Madam

With so much painful, I am writing this below mail.

Can anybody understand my simple query and sovle this problem??

In short, once again I am reminding my query, I have booked Rebock kit through online against Unique privilaged no. R-17457. but against this order I made two payments in two different cards due to online technicle problems. For which I asked for the REFUND of amount.

In this regard immediately on 22-01-09 I wrote a mail to your department. From that day onwards I am giving the clarificactions and following your advises. Each and everytime one new officer (like Mr. Rohit kumar / Mohit nagpal / Amit kumar etc., ) will be looking into this matter asking again and again clarifications.

Even I informed several times my query and asked for assistance over phone to your customer care helpline but no use.

At last as per advice of Mr. Amit kumar's e-mail dated[protected] we have refused the parcel recd. from BLUE DART vide AWB NO.[protected] against order no. 0GA[protected]. expecting the refund will be done immediately, but unfortunately again one more officer asking entire details on 04-02-09

For your easy reference & understanding, I have given the full mail details below.

Kindly look into this matter and please REFUND Rs.3, 198/- to my ICICI credit card no.
[protected].

Hope my problem will be solved by this mail and I will be very thankful and appreciate for your prompt reply.

Regards
