UJJWAL GAS SERVICE manager demand reshan card transfer from Baroda to Surat and without this UJJWAL GAS SERVICE manager will not serve refiling cylinder to me .

UJJWAL GAS SERVICE
c/26 elbi appartment, ring road, Surat, phone no- [protected]

my name is mahesh chandra jaswantlal jariwala,
customer UJJWAL GAS SERVICE no- 17838

I have inddane gas cylinder from ujjwal gas service since 14/07/06.i have transferred my gas cylinder indane from divya gas agency Baroda to ujjwal gas service Surat. On 24 jun 2009 when i go for refilling cylinder ujjwal gas service manager say
reshan card transfer from Baroda to Surat and without this UJJWAL GAS SERVICE manager will not serve refiling cylinder to me . He say also UJJWAL GAS SERVICE have not centralized so they cannot serve the refilling gas cylinder out of his Surat zone .


In my reshan card LPG gas information is DIVYA GAS AGENCY.
Customer no- 1545,
mamlatdar Baroda zone 3.

so my question is reshan card transfer is necessary when customer changing city in Gujarat . Rashan card is valid only for one city or one city zone in Gujarat,

Sir,

I don't know if any action will be taken. But I find no other way.

Acme Gas Agency, Vadodara are very irresponsible towards the customers. Twice I had given a written complaint regarding my address change. But they don't seem to have taken note of it.

I had booked a cylinder again, but have'nt yet got the delivery. On calling-up on telephone
again they took the cylinder to the old address & say it(the booking) stands cancelled.

I hope somebody takes note of this.

Further, many customers who are my friends too have complaints regarding cylinder bookings.
What happens is people book cylinder on phone. Acme gas agency people say your cylinder is booked.
But the cylinder never comes.Again on calling them up by telephone, they say your cylinder is not
booked.

PLEASE SOMEBODY TAKE SOME ACTION.

Thanks & regards,
S. S. Nair

Dear Sir

I ajit kumar mohapatra, bearing consumer No. 34375 has only 1 cyclinder, but to day when I approaching Balasore Gas Agency, Saheed Park they denied me to recieved application for 2nd new cylinder application where as associated gas agency, balasore has been receiving the application of their consumers. So please taken my matter into consideration

My family is a joint family and we have gas connection on the name of my father (one cylinder) and my mother (2 cylinders) for the last 25 yrs, refilling being done every 2 months for each of them
Last week when we asked for a refill for the cylinder by the name of my mother, we were informed that the connection had been cancelled because as per rule their cannot be connection by two different names for the same address.We were not informed with respect to the same at any point of time before cancellation of the connection. On taking up the matter with the Area manager, we were threatened that the other gas connection will also be cancelled and we were asked to surrender the papers for the cancelled connection. We have requested the agency not to cancel the connection but transfer the same to a location in the same state but a different city where we require the connection. We have not cooperation from the authorities and they keep asking us to surrender the cancelled connection and take a new connection at the outstation location rather than transfering the same.
Our complaint also includes
1) we were not informed of the cancellation
2) we were not given the choice for cancellation
3) the authorities just to achieve their targets are forcing us to buy a new connection at an out location and not transferring the extra connection
4) we are being threatened of other connection also being cancelled if we do not comply

Pls guide as to what can be done with respect to the same.

The distributor of Indane gas at B1- community centre- Janakpuri, New Delhi is rarely provide telephonic booking service to its consumer.You will find most of the time the telephones are either engaged or not attended. Is it necessary to go again again to the agency to show our face to them. Also, I have already book my gas conection no. 35518 on 27/06/09 but they that gas will be provided in 4 to 8 days, I have only one cylinder so I face so many problems when my gas cylinder finished, but we call them then they increase the limit time and told for the buying new cylinder. I want to say that if they can give me new cylinder with in a day, why not they refill my cylinder with in 2 or 3 days. I am unhappy for this connection. I request to all not to buy Indane gas service atleast from B1-janakpuri ND-58.

I am a regular petrol consumer at Indianoil Petrol Pump situated adjascent to Delhi Tamil Sangam Bldg, Sector V, R.K Puram, New Delhi. Off late I have observed that my Car as well as scooter have started giving less milage whenever, I fill petrol from this filling station. When I refill my car or scooter from other petrol pumps, I get more milage. This proves that the Petrol Pump in question has rigged its meter and is delivering/cheating the customers . I wish that concerned agencies should raid this petrol pump and if found guily, it should be sealed and cases of cheating and forgery registered against the owners of the petrol pump.

We need to discourgae such acts of fraud. I hope for an early action in the matter.

Sir, We are residing in Coimbatore. I want to express my brief grivences regarding the supply of LPG gas to the public. The company NIRMAL INDANE GAS AGENCY, 33/1, aVARAMPAYALAM BUS STAND. AVARAMPALAYAM in Coimbatore involving in all 420 actions by supplying the cylinders to the unauthorised persons. The consumers are asked to register for the refill after 25 days of last refill billed. After booking they are supposed to issue withing 5 working days. But all the time they are suppliying after 11 days only. When we enquire them they try to blame IOC and even IOC also not taking any care and action. In my case so times they misbehaved and now also I registered for the refill on 17.06.2009 but still no supply. Today I asked the gas agency regarding the supply they replied it will be supplied on 29.06.2009 which also not ensured. When asked IOC complaint cell they refused to give me and wherever you want complaint proceed that. Being an ex-service men of this country I have told this statement in country border when I was less paid for my sacrificing life while in service. Even IOC Sales officer not ensuring the compliant Nos. to be displayed at the Gas agencies. It clearly ensures they are also taking money from the owners to loot from the public. It is not happening first time in Coimbatore. You go and visit any gas agency in this town you will not find any customer care and complaint nos. Even god also cannot control 420 action especially in Indian Oil corporation. Atleast by seeing this mail they should feel and take some action if they are taking real salary.

Dear Sir,
I have been delivered with a gas cylinder on 21/05/09 at my residence by my distributor. While placing the cylinder in use I found that the cylinder's life has been expired. I rang up to the gas agency and received the answer that as they are receiving from the Indane company they cannot help me in this regard. My question to the concerned authority is if the date has been expired then how it is circulated upto the distributor? And in this case as a customer what answer In am supposed to get from my distributor? Using the expired cylinder is very very risky and may prove catstrophic. The detail is as below:
1. Batch no of Cylinder: B 73289
2. Test Date: 11/97
3. Code: D 04( means the cylinder has been expired on 4th quarter ie, December 2004).
4. Customer ID: 31288
5. Name & Address of the agency: Uttaryan Gas Service( Distributor of Indane)
Jangra, Kalitala; Baguiati,
Kolkata-59

Dear All

At my home (sub div-ganaur, distt- sonepat, Haryana) we are using LPG connection of Indane. The distributor comes to deliver the cylenders and force all the villagers( whosoever is a customer to them) to:

1. Purchase Tea Pouch costing Rs. 80- Rs. 120 from them

2. Purchase the Gas pipes ( which they bring with them ), upon denial they do not supply in time.

3. Charges for compulsory visit of a technician for chaecking the Stove (Rs 60 from all the vllagers)


See, How a blunder it is : A single technician will be visiting all the 200-300 houses ( with Indane Gas connection) and charging Rs. 60 (which infact charged in advance while taking the dlivery of the Gas cylender.)
This way in a single day through a single technician they are gathering 60 X 300 == Rs. 18000.00

This is the hight of the corruption.

What the hell is this...

M/s Sheetla gas Services Sunder Nagar Mandi HP is not giving (Officially) new gas connection. When i reached the agency on 16/06/2009 for booking a new gas connection, their officials said - You have to wait for THREE Months (till september), as we are not getting any new connection from the Company(indian Oil Ltd). Further they said we will give you only cylinder( without regulator, pipe & stove) for Rs 2300/- without consumer book.
Besides Officials are very rude and misbehaving with consumers.

I've submitted all required documents on 16/06/09.

I am living in Surat . I have Indian gas( ujjawal gas service 26 lb apartment ringroad Surat) botal within 4 years, today i try for botol refilling, manager want rashan card of Surat, but have rashan card from Baroda, so i need information is it neccesary to transfer the resan card from Baroda to Surat . In my resan card indan gas( diviya gas agency baroda ) written . I have transfer my gas botal from Baroda to Surat in date 14/ 7/2006.

I want to take a new INDANE gas connection from Guru Kripa, Gurgaon. But with a new gas connection they made mandatory to take a gas stove worth 1800 Rs which I believe don't worth more than 500 Rs.

Please advice how I can take new connection without gas stove from gas agency. Is it a goverment stated compulsion?...

After my transfer from Guwahati in May, 2008, I applied for transfer of my billing address from Guwahti to Digboi and had deposited all the relevant documents pertaining to its effect along with the Application of Transfer of Address at BSNL, Dispur Exchange. I was assured that the transfer will be done on July, 2008. But till date it was not materialized. And the bills are still being sent to the old address.
The matter was referred to SDE (Dispur) over phone, but no result is found till date.
I once again request to look into the matter.

Sub: Supply of LPG refill cylinders - regarding
* * *
I wish to state that I am an employee o[censored]nited India Insurance Co Ltd., working as Incharge, Micro Office, situated at LIC Colony, Trichy 21. I have got own house situated at above address. I am paying House Tax and Water Tax regularly in my name. I am an Income Tax assessee having PAN (AAXPS0859G) and also having BSNL Land line connection[protected] since 1995.

My father is a State Government Pensioner, who was worked as Deputy Inspector of Labour, in the Govt of Tamilnadu, also residing with me in the same house along with my mother independently.

I have registered for LPG connection during the year 1991 at Pudukkottai. The allotment given on l0.08.1997. I have got the connection from my local distributor M/s Karuppiah Gas Enterprises, Trichy 21. My consumer/connection No.5537. Further during the year 1999 the distributors offered me double cylinder for which the deposit receipt now available. I got the supply of refill cylinders up to December 2006 (last supply 24.12.2006) with out queries or anything. While so the supply of refill cylinders stopped by the Dealers during the month of January 2007. On oral enquiry they stated the reason that I have not holding separate Ration Card.

Then I wrote a letter to M/s Karuppiah Gas Enterprises on 20.01.2007 requesting them to supply of refill cylinders. As I have not received any reply from them, again I wrote a letter to Sales Officer (IOC) Trichy with a copy marked to M/s Karuppiah Gas Enterprises. ( This letter dated 14.3.2007 was handed over to the Sales Officer IOC, in person by my father Shri L Venkatasubramanian, during a meeting conducted on 14.3.2007 at Devi Thirumanamahal, Trichy 21).

On 17.03.2007, one gentle man from M/s Karuppiah Gas Enterprises came to my house for inspection, but we have not received any reply from them or from Sales Officer IOC, about the supply of refill cylinders.

Now the Government of Tamilnadu has issued orders, “Ration Cards should not be insisted upon by LPG distributors in future” towards LPG connection or supply of refill cylinders. Hence I have once again requested the distributors for the supply of refill cylinders through my letter dated 15.09.2008. The distributors once again inspected my house on 20.09.2008 and they returned entire documents on 24.09.2008 to me with instructions to approach Sales Officer, IOC (LPG), Trichy.

The distributors has made endorsement on my request letter such as follows

LAST SUPPLY[protected]
Inspected the premises ONLY ONE KITCHEN
ONE connection stands his father name another stands in the name of bearer
Total four cylinder / Two PRS
Rubber tube should be change
NEED YOUR ADVICE
(with initial signature dt.20.09.2008 / rubber stamp)

In this connection I wish to state that my house is constructed with two kitchens, two separate front/back entrances and other facilities like bath room & toilet, separate sub meter for EB connection also available.

Above things are personally verified by the person came for inspection from M/s Karuppiah Gas Enterprises. But I cannot understand the reason behind the statement (ONLY ONE KITCHEN) given by the gentleman who inspected my house, which is basically wrong and not correct. If required, you are at liberty to inspect my house at any time.

On the above circumstances, I am once again requesting you to appraise the situation and expecting your favorable instructions for supply of refill cylinders through the LPG distributors.


Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,
