Dear Sir/Madam,

I have purchased a new connection from Bhakat Gas Agencies, Joshi Bhawan, Opp. Rishikul Ayurvedic College, Haridwar vide connection no. 1753821. I want to get another new cylinder (i.e. DBC on this connection), When I contact to the office, person told to me that bring connection paper & they will issue a new cylinder.

Sir, I searched the paper in our house, but unfortunately the paper was missed, when I told this situation to the Bhakat Gas Agency person, he (less hair person) not behave us good & misguide us that the new cylinder can not be issued I asked to the person, please issue us duplicate paper, because it may be happen, but he not give me the satisfactory reply.

What should we do.

Regards,

I have a gas connection with Guru Kripa Gas agency for Indane in Gurgaon. I must say they have a very pathetic service and its already been highlighted by several persons earlier. They never pick phones, either it will be busy or it will keep ringing. If after continuously trying for 5-6 days they will pick, they will not book cylinder saying that now cylinder will be booked after 21 days of cylinder delivery. Delivery will be made after 10-15 days of booking cylinder which means apprantley it will take minimum 35-40 days to get a cylinder. I wish somebody who has authority to eradicate this ruckus can see this and help several persons who are getting severely affected with autocracy of Guru Kripa Gas Agency in Gurgaon.

I had indane gas connection bearing No.12775 with Venkatarama indane service code.143830, Kakinada-533003, Visakhapatnam marketing division of andhra pradesh. the dealer is giving troubles to book 2nd cylinder. due to this reason we are facing a lot of inconvenience and troubles i.e., 2-3 days non availability of gas. I request the concerned authorities to instruct suitably the dealer suitable guidance/rules to the following e mail i.d.

Dear Sirs,

It is a regular habit of M/s. Subhlaxmi Indane, Bopal, Ahmedabad, who is the local Indane Gas Distributor that as and when a customer do book their Cylinder, they will give us a normal delivery time of 5 - 7 days time. After failure of receiving the Cylinder, if the customer wants to lodge a complaint or to remind them, either we won't get the Telephone Connection or proper reply from them.

Their regular practice is that though the telephone is ringing, they will reduce the ringing sound of the telephone instrument and let it ring as much as.

Here, I would like to give an example of the last / recent gas booking with them. My Consumer No.12006 - Johnson Pathrose.On 3rd August 2010, I called up them and booked my cylinder. In turn, they assured that cylinder will be delivered within 2/3 days. However, after a lapse of 5 days, inspite of my repeated telephonic reminders I fail to receive the same. Upon my teletalk with them on 10th morning, I have been informed that I will get the cylinder by afternoon / evening of the same day. But I have not received the same by 5.30 PM in turn, I have visited their Office from where I have been informed that by 7.30 I will get the Cylinder which went in vain. Yesterday, i.e. 11th August 2010 morning again I called them and then also I got same reply that I will get the cylinder by 5 O' clock. But after 5.45 when I visited their office and shouted about their nuisence, at last 7.30 I got the Cylinder. Please note that in the delivery slip, it is clearly mentioned that the booking date is 3rd August and on the same day itself they have sold the cylinder in black and regularly they were telling lie.

There is a similar case with my college in my Office - Namely Mr. Shailesh Pandya, Consumer No.17748 who had booked for his cylinder on 30th July 2010 and till the time of writing this complaint he has not received the cylinder, inspite of his regular efforts daily. Yesterday, for him also I have asked to expedite the delivery which they flatly refused.
Please note that my friend is having only one cylinder and having a joint family with him.

Now you can understand the situation of customers who are suffering unnecessarily because of the irresponsibility of such type of agencies who are selling the cylinders in black and earning double amount to they emergency customers by not supplying the regular customers.

I have received a letter from the dealerM/S Gas& Allied Agencies Kannur to surrender the second connection asper Section 3 of LPG ( Regulation of Supply and Distribution).

I want clarification on

He is elegible to book a connection at his place of stay with his pasport or PAN of IT
In case of transfer of my connection, he need not pay any further security deposit.
So, isn't thre transfer possible?
If so, what are the formalities and whether the requiewd forms available with the agents?
If transfer is not possible,why it is not possible?

HOME DELIVERY OF LPG CYLINDERS
CONSUMERS FORUM TAKES DISTRIBUTORS TO TASK

GUWAHATI,July29- The Consumers Legal Protection Forum (CLPF) has demanded immediate steps to repay the amount taken by the LPG dealers from the consumers against home delivery, in all those cases where consumers are made to collect their cylinders from the dealers godowns etc.
The CLPF said in a statement here that it been receiving complaints from LPG consumers located in various parts of the State that they are made to collect their cooking gas cylinders from the dealers godowns etc places at their own cost. However the dealers are not remitting them back the amount of Rs 8 taken from them against home delivery of each of the cylinders.
The dealers are refusing home delivery of the cooking gas cylinders on various pleas. But they continue to charge the consumers the amount of Rs 8 against home delivery of such cylinders.
The failure of the dealers to make home delivery of the cooking gas cylinders has also resulted in the growth of large black market of LPG cylinders throughout the State.
The matter was taken up by the CLPF with the Indian Oil Corporation Ltd (IOCL) Authorities and the Director of Food and Civil Supplies on occasions. But so far none of these authorities has taken any step to redress the grievances of the consumers, alleged the CLPF.
It needs mention here that the State has at present 253 LPG distributing firms. Of them, 228 are connected with the IOCL, 16 are connected with the Bharat Petroleum and nine are connected with the Hindustan Petroleum.
There are around 20,37,000 LPG consumers in the State and of them 19,37,120 are linked with the IOCL, 70,000 are linked with the Bharat Petroleum and 30,000 are linked with Hindustan Petroleum.

these r the few vistits i mentioned.....the count is more..
the best part is that the customer ...whose serial nos are after mine..got there connections...

now what i should do....

On the 2nd of August 2010, approximately 11.30am a very serious situation occurred. This involved a gas regulator provided by Dhuri gas agency (Indane) Rambag Dhuri being blown up and destroyed into lots of many pieces being scattered everywhere, which could of caused of real harm and caused a serious injury. On many times I have tried to contact the local gas agency on the 2nd, 3rd of August and today the gas agency is the Dhuri gas agency (Indane) on the telephone number on 227313, and I have had no contact with them as I have not been able to get in touch due to no-one picking up the phone. As I am a very old aged person and not well as I am ill, I have not been able to meet them in person.

We need the regulator that they have provided to be checked and replaced for the gas cylinder, as you will probably know that the gas cylinder will not function at all without a regulator.

I would appreciate if you could sort out the problem a.s.a.p
