OLX India Complaints & Reviews

I had posted an ad on 28th of september 2019 to sell a sofa set of rs.7000. On the next day 29th september a call from a buyer came and introduced himself as an indian army member name ravi kumar prajapat and said he is interested to buy that tv for 6500 and wanted me to accept the payment first before checking the sofa and one person from his side will pick up the item from my home next day. He, again insisted me to accept his proposal of sending me money through swipe machine. I accepted his offer and agree to get payment from his swipe machine. He said i had to approve the request and the money will get deducted from his account. But this didn't happen. He first made a purchase request of rs.5 and when i approved it through gpay i saw a deposit of rs.10 was made to my gpay. Then he made purchase request of rs.6500 rs get deducted from my account itself and deposited to his account. Then he made another transaction of 13000 and said accept the request fast otherwise this money will get a transfer into his account. Again 13000 credited in his account. But that confident fraud man made me believe that it will get debited from my account and then it gets credited with the same amount. This happens again and again and i lost my rs19500 money in this fraud. But he makes me believe that he will return my amount back by the next morning because he had to go to some place. Till now the the person trying to convincing me by sending various amounts of purchase request which i stopped approving from my gpay. I made a legal complain already. Hope so i'l get my money back.

Hi,

I have received call from the cell no. [protected] on the name of mandeep singh. He mentioned that he is from indian army & while buying from olx by mistake gave cell number with one digit change. So he asked to provide otp, by mistake otp was shared by me. After that i have received message that your ad is live. But it is not given by me, kindly reject it from your end.in case if any further selling offer he posts then do not post it & delete the account of this name.

Ad link is https://www.olx.in/ad/[protected], i am requesting to block olx account which is opened by a fraud person.

Looking forward your kind co-operation & do the needful.

Best regards,
Pankaj

My 5000 rs are gone because of this car ad. I am very upset because of olx for promoting such types of ads.olx I[censored] really satisfy customers then give my money back.The seller name was shaker, he tells he works in Indian army but its not at all true.He first asks to pay 5000 for transport don't trust this ads the car number is below so people please be cautious with this type of ads

I was searching for scooty and i saw this ad... They asked for courier charges i sent it and then they refused to give it back. It happened an hour ago and i want an immediate action on it...[protected] this is the no. I contacted from and i want you guys to pay me for the loss that i had to face and investigate about it so no one will face the same problem...

Mr. Shail kumar who was called me for selling oppo f 11 mobile phone and demand advance money via google pay and paytm. He was telling me that he is in indian army and when i denied his demand then he used abusive word over phone call and cut mt call. So its my request all please dont give money in advance to any seller or share any private details.
Fraud person caller no.- [protected]

Please dont pick any cal from this no. Or if anybody call and telling you that he is an indian army and want to buy/sell item, so please report this to local police station and report to olx. Also.

Suddenly i could not access my olx account. They have denied the access for no reason. I was using the site and chatting for genuine seller. My email id /login id is [protected]@gmail.com. My earlier complaint has been resolved without a response from the olx.

This is not proper for the olx site to block the access without mentioning any reason....

Good morning,

Today i could not access my olx account, email : [protected]@gmail.com. I am wondering why the olx team has denied access to my account without any reason. I was making choices from genuine seller by chatting. This is very unprofessional and unethical practice by the olx team..

People should be carefully know the credentials before accessing such sites.

Thank you....

So when i came to mumbai on 26 sep i called him and i said i am comong to mumbai come to panvel he said ok. But after sometime i got the call feom delivery person he is saying that pay half amount as he is not getting clearance from army head quarter. So I paid him 10000 but after some time he called again and saying that there is some mismatch please pay full amount but i not agreed to pay but again seller ashish kumar khandelwal called and he said i am army person i will not lie plz pay the money u will get ur bike. After paying full amount again delivery boy asking 5500 this time i refused to pay and i didn't get my money or scooty. And i called to ashish khandelwal but he said i will not return the money.

I had an ad to sell led tv of amount 10000. One call from a buyer came and said he is interested to buy that tv for 7000 and wanted me to accept the payment first before checking the tv and one person from my side will pick up the item from your place next day. He, again and again, insisted me to accept his proposal of sending me money through swipe machine. I accepted his offer and agree to get payment from his swipe machine. He said i had to approve the request and the money will get deducted from his account. But this didn't happen. 7000 rs get deducted from my account itself. Then he made another transaction of 14000 and said accept the request fast otherwise this money will get a transfer into his account. Again 14000 credited in his account. But that confident fraud man made me believe that it will get debited from my account and then it gets credited with the same amount. This happens again and again and i lost my 84000 money in this fraud.

This shows olx is not an authenticate site they don't registered genuine sellers and because of it customer is facing such type of severe fraud. Please take the action against olx and gave me justice

I have ordered a samsung galaxy note 10 plus from olx seller, but when i received the product it was a fake samsung galaxy s10 plus. I contacted the seller and i asked for the return and refund of my cash but unfortunately they do not pick my call nor do they reply my messages.

I felt surprise that, without any mistake my account with cell no. [protected] has banned and it doesn't allow me to login... Why so? If they don't wish to allow people post the group they should not promote so much in the media that: olx is best platform to sale and buy when they ban user without violate any such rule... So, pls allow my account if ban by mistake...

Hi team,
My account banned for no reason, i have add to sell my old cars and got good response and chat with genius users.
When tried to connect olx customer care, they refuse to explain why my account banned, and advice me to follow legal procedure like fir on police station etc.

Why not solve user problem on the spot.. Why so much irresponsible?

My account [protected]@yahoo.com and [protected]@gmail.com account suspended for no reasons. I have seen many olx user account has been suspended and later same account has been reactivated stating "we have incorrectly removed user...". If it is going to be. Who is gonna do business on olx. Olx communication state chat history where buyer offer sell price to seller and wait for reply. What if deal will done?
Many people keep their favourite advertisement in favourite and save for view later. All will be washed off and no trade on olx and no marketing, less user of olx. Quikr is better than olx in today time. Everybody got chance or warning. Think about yourself and about your future. Its not about quality. Its about user.

I wanted to sell my car. I have seen olx ads for a long time now.
I thought of selling my car through olx.
So created account on olx. I posted ad & i was getting good responses.
I was logged out of my account on olx app and was asked to log in again. I tried to log in but my account was banned for no reason at all. I had logged in with google acc [protected]@gmail.com

Hello,
I saw an add on olx for active model no 22 december 2016 by a lady named neha jaiswal [gave me the proof of indian army] from indian army deolali camp nashik. I wanted to buy that hence i called her [[protected]]. By sending her 5000 rs in advance at 11 am, she told me that i'll get home delivery from indian army till evening. At 6 pm, an army postman driver named somnath giri called me [[protected]] and said that he has arrived in ahmednagar with my ordered moped. He asked for the remaining payment of rs. 13000 to complete the procedure according to army protocol. Until and unless i will not the complete the payment procedure, he is not going to deliver the moped so i trusted him because of the indian army and paid the remaining amount of rs.13000. After that, he again asked me to send rs.9250 as army security amount. As i didn't have that much money so i paid the amount in three parts 1) rs.2500 2) rs.2750 rs 3) rs.4000. He said that i made the wrong transaction and asked to make the whole payment in a single transaction. I took her [neha jaiswal] on the conference call with the delivery man and convinced that the security amount will be refunded as cash once we get the delivery. Under army protocol [as he said], i managed somehow and paid extra rs.9250 again and in a single transaction. After some time, the army postman driver told me to pay rs 7100 as overtime charges. Trusting army protocol, i paid the money [rs.7100] and said the transaction you made was wrong. I felt that something is wrong hence didn't send the money thereafter. I lost around rs. 43600 and whole transaction was made through google pay.

I have attached the transaction screenshots, her personal information, rc book, moped photos with this mail.

Please find below her details.

2. Account number[protected].
3. Ifsc code 0123456

Hi,
I would like to report a number that try to scam me off of money. I had posted an ad on olx and the person contacted me via the ad and said that he could only transfer via bhim app. Today 21/09/2019 he told me that he is sending me a qr code and i need to accept that and that was a link for a payment of ₹5, 000. He constantly kept contacting me via call and asked me to accept the payment saying that by clicking on ‘pay’ i would be sending the amount to my account and not his.

I haven’t lost any money as i didn’t do as he asked me to.
I’m just sending the details of the person including the qr code. Kindly make others aware of this incident because he sounded very calm and he knew what he was doing. He also tried to guide me step by step as to rip money off of me.
