lindane — Delay in supplying in Gas Cylinders

I (consumer no : 30066) have booked the gas cylinder on January 6, 2009 in Swathi Gas Agency, Triplicane, Chennai. Still now we have not received the gas cylinder. Its already 23 days..Till now there is no information regarding the delivery of Gas cylinder. No proper response is expected in this Gas Agency. Whenever call is made, a loud voice will only come stating it will be delivered. But we dont know, when it is going to be delivered.

lindane — Delaying the supply

I was suppose to book my cylinder on 24.01.2009 and when I called for booking it was refused citing reason that 25 days have not completed.Since 25 th Jan was sunday and 26 th was republic day they have closed the office and they made me book on 27th Jan 2009.
Till today(04.02.2009) I have'nt got the cylinder.If they delay for delivery for 9days and once again I have to book cylinder after completion of 25 days from the date of delivery how one should manage almost 35 days without a gas cylinder?

lindane — Delay in Supply of cylinder

I had booked for a gas cylinder 25 days ago vide consumer no. 67118 to our agent K.K.Indane Enterprise, Bangalore.
For last 20 days i am calling the distributor, most of the time they don't bother to pick up the phone and when picked also they would say they are sending it. Daily they are asking us to stay at home to recieve the cylinder as if we dont have any other work and only wait for them. Either they should give the correct reason for the delay or a definite date of delivery instead of keeping the customer under suspence.
Pls look into this matter urgently as to why this delay and not attending the phone calls of customers. I am really fed up wid the distributor.

Indane Gas — worst service of agency

I am having gas connection of Indane No. is 13258.The agency M/s. D P Tharore & Company Ansari Road Darya Ganj Delhi 110002 does not pick the phone for gas booking.Most of the time we have to contact personally. We have to try again and again on phone. Also the delivery person does not bring weighin machine inspite of reminding every time.

Its very easy to resolve all your issues within 30 days, don't buy any stove with it, please file RTI application (first call them saying that i am going to file RTI, if he challenge then definetly file RTI, once you file it he will die, Pls update me and also help to others, its your responsibility to aware other and get this country corruption free.), for more detail visit this site. RTIINDIA.ORG (All the details, Sample forms and how to submit the application)
RTI.GOV.IN (Know about RTI)
CIC.GOV.In (Decisions made)

It's true they have worst service.

Yes the phone is out of service

yes i agree My name is P .Ananthakrishnan B9 36/163 East Mada Street tiruvanmiyur chennai-4 Consumer no 4468 i have booked gas on 11-6-10 even after 18 days gas refill not received

I agree and it is unbelievable that in this day and age they manage to get away with such severely deficient service. I booked my cylinder over a month ago. They said it would take 2 weeks for delivery but over a month later, it has not come. The lines are almost impossible to get through, and the attitude when you do manage to get through is rude and brusque and they put the phone down before you have even finished talking. I am confident that they keep their phone lines off the hook as you get the "subscriber is busy' message any time of the day or night you call. (have tried even late night and early morning to check. )
What is the solution ? Who can be asked to intervene in this matter ?

I booked a cylinder on approx. 19th Oct' 2010 and was told to wait 2 weeks for delivery. After 2 weeks, not having received the replacement, I tried calling and had to dial for days (!) before I managed to get through. (The line is CONSTANTLY busy/ off the hook)
On telling the lady I hadnt received it, I was put on hold for ages and then the lady came back on the line to say I would have to wait a few more days. It has been over 10 days since then, and still not replacement cylinder.
I find it unbelievable that in this day and age they manage to get away with such severely deficient service. Over a month (and counting) to deliver a cylinder, the lines are almost impossible to get through, and the attitude when you do manage to get through is rude and brusque and they put the phone down before you have even finished talking. I am fairly confident that they keep their phone lines off the hook as you get the "subscriber is busy' message any time of the day or night you call. (have tried even late night and early morning to check. )

indane LPG cylinders — non delivery of cylinders + sale in black

Sir

My consumer no. is R6474 which is in the name of Mr. Shankar Lal Agarwal. The name of your affiliated agency where i m registered is "Rajendra Gas Agency" in Ambabari, Jaipur

As per your norms, the cylinder should have been delivered in 2 days. But its a normal practice of the agency to deliver the cylinder in 7-8 days. However, this time the cylinders are being dispatched after 15 days from the date of booking to all consumers. The reason given by the agency incharge is that their is a shortage of supply in cylinders from your part.

However, i have noticed through the newspapers that you have clarified that there is no short supply from your part.

On 20 November, 2007 i booked for a LPG cylinder. The booking no. is 87297. As per the agency, the due date for supply of cylinder is 6 december, 2007. But i havnt received my cylinder till today (7 December,2007 i.e. after 17 days from the date of booking). When asked from the agency incharge no satisfactory reply was given.

I have also observed many irregularities committd by the agency.

Many times while booking i have noticed that the person booking the cylinders use to keep the phones hold. It creates problems for the people who cant get the booking done by coming to the place of agency because of any reason. Also, it creates problems if any person have any query n want to contact through phone.
Also, no one answers on the customer care no. provided in the refil slip. So there is no place to file complaints against the agency.

I have even noticed that the agency do not give the booking no. to the customers on their own will. The booking no. is given only when asked by the customer. In case, the customer forgets to ask the no., the cylinder booked is sold out in black & when asked by customer later, he is told that the cylinder was not booked.

Yesterday i saw that a person got his cylinder booked & when he asked for the refil slip, the person booking the cylinder said that their is a power cut so they cant print the refil slip n give it to him. That person went thereafter n forgot to take the booking no. I noticed that there was no power cut at that place & the slip was generated few seconds after that person left the place.

The name of the agency have also been quoted in newspaper many times for irregularities commited.

I request you to take some serious action against the agency & please provide feedback to me otherwise i have to take legal action against you & the agency.

My gas distributors codeno.1067 chennai.i have booked for lpg gas cylinder refill and confirmed from the agencies that i will receive my cylinder on 4th april.But i could not received, but the distuributer said he dispatched the cylinder on 4th april .I suspect they delevered to somebody else insted of me.I request u kindly look in to the matter

indane LPG cylinders — not refunding of money in TV

I was customer in M/s. Devi gas agencies Cuddalore. I got shifted to vellore. When I approached Devi gas agencies regarding transfering they said you have to surrender both cylinder and regulator. So I surrendered the same. They issued a Termination Voucher. At that time I've asked about the money they said that money will not be given. You have to just handed over this voucher to the agency which is near to your place.

When I went there for registering this connection in vellore thay are asking money for the same. I told all the details but in vellore they are telling that you have to pay the money.

Then I enquired in Cuddalore devi gas agency they are telling that I've received the money. But thay issued only TV and not taking any voucher signature regarding refunding of money.

May I request you to please interveine in this and help me to get back my amount.

I have Indian Oil Corporation LPG connection (Indane Gasa). My present agency is M/S Ragavendra Gas Agency, Avadi, Chennai - 54. My consumer No is 22192. I have booked my refill cylinder 23 Oct 2008 till today I have not got my cylinder despite repeated reminders. They are giving false promise to supply the gas immediately. When I try to contact over telephone mostly the phone gets engaged not because of busy telephone but they put the receiver aside. and when we get chance to speak the reply is not proper and they say " sending today''.

So Please look in to the matter and request you to please take necessary action immediately and ensure that they supply the gas to me immediately . It is requested that suitable action as deemed fit may please be taken against the gas agency and also the gas agency may also be checked frequently by the Indian Oil corporation to avoid further inconvenience to the consumers of Indane GAS users.

Sir,
i would like to know if the booking of a refill of domestic gas
cylinders for dbc holders is after 21 days of delivery. The gas agency
here i.e. M/S Robertsganj Gas Agency takes about a week to 25 days to
deliver a refill and that too a customer has to go to there godown which
is in market it is very difficult to get the delivery as one has to
take leave from work. They also do not offer 'cash & carry' rates
to consumers. Please look into the matter and please let us know the
rule position for booking. Details- gas booking date 5-3-2014 but till date not received...

Kleen Gas, Bhubaneswar — Non Supply of Refill

I have booked for refill cylinder on 19.08.2010 with KLEEN GAS, UNIT-III, BHUBANESWAR. Till date I have not been supplied the same. No body is responding the telephone and when we go to the office of the Gas agency, it is found closed. How can I get my refil ?

The dealer is not accepting fresh booking of refil within 15dys of refil supply, which is normally supplied at a span of 20-25 days, means a consumer cann't get a refil before 34-40dyas even though he might be having a double cysinder connection. Why ? Is there any fixed rule for this ?
