I have tried to contact on phone no [protected], [protected], [protected],[protected],[protected] and visited many times at Agency and AREAOFFICE but all are unable to provide the solution due to technical error inINDIAN OIL CORPORATION’S software. They also refused to provide the NEWCONNECTION. Aftersubmit the required paper I went to their office 10 times in the last 130 days, but their executive did not respond properly and always make excuses i.e.Software not working, go to Area Office, and come after 15 days. I amvery much upset and depressed due to their irresponsible responses. Isthere anyone from the Indane Corporation who can help me out from thissituation???.

Sir/Madam I am Rakesh staying in Secunderabad. I have taken a connection from Yashoda Indane Services. and they charged me 5800/-. In this regards I also had the word with your customer care, and they also had word with the proprietor of the agency, but I dint receive any satisfactory answer. your customer care executive told me to show them the stove to take the connection without stove, since I was not having the stove already and I dont want to take stove from the agency because of vey higher charges, but for that they demand 4800/- I did ask for the bills of all the charges and breakups for the same. But that also they denied to provide. The answer I got was everything is on MRP and its mentioned on the products such as stove, tube . So to have the connection, as I was not having any option, I paid them 5800/- and got the connection but if I calculate the MRP of all items, then also total is not getting match with the 5800/- Selling items without bill that too on higher charges and without providing breakup is not ethical as well as illegal. As well as they said if you want connection you have to pay or else get lost. Can you help me to get back my money as well as I need all the bills for all the items, as getting Bills is the right of the customer. I got only two receipts one is of 1600 for cylinder and regulator and 441 for refilling. I require your attention in this matter ASAP.

dear sir, my consumer no is 1673([protected]) .My cylinders are supplied by Sri Ambiram Indane Gas Agency in Sholinganallur, CHENNAI. Almost all the cylinders supplied by them during the year 2014 were noticed for gas leak and it was complained to the distributor. They will send one person babu to rectify. He will place one washer int he cylinder and get his 50 rs. and gets away. Like wise i lodged a compliant on 22nd may when i changed my new cylinder, he rectified the same at 11.45 am. i placed the compliant at 9.15 am. Usually my cylinder will last from 55 days to 60 days. But to my surprise the cylinder got exhausted on 26th June today. it had last only 34 days. Now I suspect that the gas theft is happening. Previously in Chennai in a single area people complained of gas theft by a certain group who steal gas in connivance of the delivery boys.I have read the same in local newspaper. I suspect the same in our area. and since my cylinder exhausted so soon, i have seen the boys opening and closing the seal on their own and stealthily fixing the same.I suspect the same. and I request all the top management concerned to watch the delivery personnel connected to this agency with particular reference to those who deliver to my residence in Perungudi., Chennai time and again many gas bursts are happening due to gas leaks. Nowadays i fear to open the cylinder even. W e are innocent home makers who struggle to make both ends meet.how can w e manage the family expenses if the cylinder last only for 35 days or so. I have to shell out more every month.Kindly do the needful sir. I strongly suggest that a simple weighing machine in the delivery vehicle to check in case of any doubt could go a long way in tackling the problem.I strongly doubt that the full cylinders and being tampered with and the gas is siphoned off in collusion with the delivery boys in Perungudi area. That may be the reason for gas leak. I am registerin this complaint with a strong belief of Gas Theft since the cylinder lasted only for 34 days, with no additional usage that regular cooking. Thks and regards. An acknowledgement for this complaint from ur side will be highly appreciated. My email id. is "[protected]@gmail.com . Faithfully V.Subhalakshmi

today i am going to your petrol pump at anand nagar road, your branch manager very misbehave with me like gali, maramari, your manager was totally drunked. Do the needful naither i will complein to your higher authority From : Manish Laheru [protected]

Sir,

Today I went to
CHOTANAGPUR SERVICE STATION OF INDIAN OIL CORPORATION LIMITED, Bokaro Steel
City, Bokaro, Jharkhand to get my car’s tank fully filled. I asked for the same
from the operator working there. He did fill up the tank but the final reading
came as 37 liters and I was charged for the same (receipt is with me).

Sir, as per car’s specifications the full tank capacity of my Wagon R is only 35 liters.

Kindly look into this discrepancy as this is a very serious case of mismanagement at ground level.
This in long turn will hamper company’s reputation amongst general public.

Hoping for the fair judgement from your side.
Yours truly Dr.Pankaj Kumar,
Sec 4 F, Q No 5044, BS City, Bokaro, Jharkhand, 827004

I am an executive with a nationalised bank trnasfered to kollam in august 2013, i registered for twin gas cylinders with quilon gas services- my consumer no. Cx 733582, as i am on official duty, my family is not with me, i live alone in my flat. This fact was brought to the notice of the gas agency and requested them to make cylinder delivery at my flat before office hours i.E before 10 am at the time of registration to be noted as a special instuction. Since last 3 months for booking a cylinder, i have tried their phone numbers at[protected], 2747322, 2797192, 2797193, but no one picks up the phone. They donot have online booking facility either. At last i had to appear in person at their office to book a cylinder last friday. Since then every day they have stalled delivery till date. Today again i couldnot attend office waiting for the delivery team to turn up, but to no avail. Being a responsible official of the bank, i cannot waste time and leave waiting for a cylinder. I am utterly disaapointed by their services. I donot wish to continue with this agency or indane any more.

. I have applied for a new gas connection at Dwarka Indane Service, TIN No -[protected], K-1/4, Rajapuri, Opposite Sect-5, Dwarka, N Delhi-110059. 2. The distributor is insisting that I buy a gas stove from him only.When I refused and asked him to show the rules, he could not show me any such rule and asked me to buy one from outside and show him the receipt. 3. I told him that I am willing to pay Rs 250/- for inspection of my gas stove which has been recently gifted to me by my employer and is in a very good condition. 4. However, the distributor refused even for the inspection until I produce a receipt of a brand new gas stove. 5. I am a poor person drawing a salary of only Rs 10, 000/- per month and cannot afford to buy a second gas stove. 6. Please direct the distributor to give me a new connection as applied by me. Yours Sincerely, Kalyan Singh

Dear Sir, We had purchased Indane cylinder on 04.11.2008 from Anuj - located at Saffron tower in Fatehgunj, Vadodara, Gujarat.-390002 Our Consumer I D is 11569. We had used almost for 7 months then we were out of town.for almost 5 yrs.

We want instant solution we are without gas from one month, in spite of our own connection

I am having a indane gas connection through distributor named " Nikita indane, Shankar Nagar, Raipur, chhattisgarh, contact no.[protected], 4023915. Yesterday on 17.06.14 when i went to book a cylinder from Nikita Indane raipur, i was informed that i already have taken cylinder on 02nd of the month and i cant be given cylinder. But i havnt booked cylinder since 28.03.2014. Distributor have booked cylinder from my account and given...

I myself J.BOSE, consumer no.14847 (new consumer no. [protected]) of Indane Gas dealer Ram Krishna Agency, Kharagpur, W.B. On 12th June'14 one cylinder delivery man came our house and supplied one cylinder (as per our order booked on 31/5) and ask for cost of cylinder of Rs.430/- (actual cost of Rs.418.50). My wife denied to pay Rs.430/- and ready to pay for Rs.418.50 but delivery man not ready to receive the same and tale us "that's why I am not given you cylinder in proper time", further that cylinder delivery man not provide slip for signature of consumer, instead of given us he himself signed this slip and told "no need your signature and I already signed here" - this is the attitude. Very next day I informed this event to Mr. Arun Sinha owner of Ram Krishna Enterprises (dealer of Indan Gas), but I don't know any action taken or not. I strongly protest against this incident and request to take necessary action so that never be happen again with anyone.

Sir My consumer number is 17033 under distributor M/s Chirodeep, 435, Dum Dum Park, Kol -700055. I would like to report about the mishap that took place at our home on 16th June at around 10:30 pm. When I opened the safety cap of a full cylinder that was delivered earlier this month, gas was coming out forcibly making huge sound. Everybody was scared and we immediately called at the emergency number 23972227, at 10:38 pm. They took all the details and advised us to put the refill cap back on (but nobody dared to take the risk of going closer to the cylinder) and assured of sending help. After 15 minutes when we called the emergency support again the guy who picked up the phone said that we have to wait for 2 hrs to get “emergency” assistance and slammed the receiver down on my face. It was really shocking! Is this what should be the response in an emergency? Thanks to fire brigade’s prompt action we avoided a disaster. However, the next morning on 17th June the faulty cylinder has been replaced by the distributor. Though we check cylinder before receiving but actually we have to rely on the delivery man’s word because he opens the seal and he checks the valve as we don’t have much understanding about this. The above mentioned cylinder was so old that the expiry date as obscure due to much use. And this is not the first time that we had to accept such old, expired cylinders. If we refuse to accept such cylinder we are told that the company sends such cylinder and if everyone wants new cylinder it’s ot possible for them to meet the customers’ demand. So we often have to accept such cylinders which could turn out to be dangerous. If checking the cylinder before accepting delivery is my duty as consumer what about the company? Why such old cylinders are still being used? How could they behave so badly in emargency situation like this? After all it could be a matter of life and death if not paid attention in time.||

Hi, I have apply for new gas connection at march 2014 and all process are finished( address verification etc ). But since then they are not issue us new domestic gas cylinder and customer card number.They refused me regularly from last two month and they still make lots of excuses. Please help me here as my family suffer lot.

I had registered a complaint through Indane's Toll free no. [protected] on 12th June regarding delayed delivery, non-delivery at home and delivery without cash memo. The complaint no. is 1464652. My consumer no. is CX 3780624. I am getting re-fill cylinders fro M/s. Kairaly Indane Services, Poothotta, Thrippunithura, Ernakulam district, Kerala They seldom deliver at home. This is their normal practice in the whole Vaikom region. I am residing at Maravanthuruthu since last two and half years. I had to call the agency, they will ask us to call the delivery boy's no. and get the delivery done at home. But they never obliged to deliver at my home which is close to the main road and they want us to take the empty cylinder to the road and take delivery. This is quite impossible as my wife is alone here. They as a practice don't go by the booking index and gives delivery to any customer who is ready to take delivery on the road side. They seldom gives a cash memo or receipt. The cost of re-fill cylinder is always what the delivery boy says. This is totally a ridiculous practice which has to be checked. There is no meaning in booking on-line as they follow the old system only. Please help me to find a permanent solution. Thanking you hoping to receive justice, Yours faithfully, Gigi Antony
