OLX India Complaints & Reviews

Peoples are editing fake invoices of Flipkart, Amazon and keeps products for sale. After the deal is over nor the phone no. is active niether the address over the invoice is correct. One example is guy himself introduve as Anil Singh bearing mobile no.[protected], residing somewhere in Ulhasnagar. Now after over 2 weeks I tried calling same no., First time he received call and next minute the phone was switched off.

My account was banned without any intimation. I dont even now if there was a violation which at least should be intimated to user over his email ID. It is obvious that unknowingly someone may violate e.g. person who is logged into VPN server located in US location while I am located in Pune. An error should be generated in such cases (so that person can log out of VPN) instead of banning the account. Moreover there is no information available on how to unban the account. I wrote an email however OLX has not taken any action.

Hi My brother fixed a deal of a car from OLXand transfered 330000/- online for the same and he was suppose to get the car yestardy as it was parked at airport and the owner was out of India and some agent was helping him sell car...now all the numbers are switched off below is the screen shot of account number and a pic of ad from olx. Phone numbers and account numbers are of banglore. He has raised police complain as well...What else can be done any help or gudiness would be really helpfull.

Thank You In Advance

We were looking for a bulldog online. Having found an ad contacted the man. His picture is posted along with this ad. He extracted 6000 refusing to show the documents of the dog and then made excuses to avoid sending more pictures and documents. He then sent us a fake email from '[protected]@yahoo.com' trying to extract 10000 more. When we called and tried to figure out we understood he was trying to scam us. He not only took away the joy of getting a dog but also our money. Please shut.him down

Kindly ref my phone number : [protected]. On 25/2, I had posted few ads on OLX for selling certain items. Since I was in hurry, I saw the option for featured ads pack and opted and paid Rs 2694/= for package of 10 ads. However, since my ads did not appear in the relevant space, I contacted the call center and was informed that the package was applicable only for mobile and TV etc and not for other items and hence my request can not be entertained. Its only then that I realized my mistake. However, my subsequent request for refund / adjusting the amount for placing the ads in featured column as per applicable rates was also turned down. This was unfair as I have paid the money inadvertently and I should have the option either to get the refund or use the amount otherwise. I had taken up the matter through email with their support team but to no avail and was replied as follows:
"I regret to inform you that no refund is applicable on such instance. I request you to utilize your package for the TVs, Video - Audio category & Delhi location".
However this is unfair. If by mistake, I have deposited an amount for a service which I can not use, I have a right to get the refund.

My ad is not to be seen in the website when checked randomly. Its a premium ad and i feel its useless paying so much as its not serving its purpose and i do not get any calls for my product. The ad is not rotated on a daily basis. It is only seen when filtered with honda. As it is premium ad it is expected to be seen in the first few pages, randomly, without a filter. Please do the needful

I got my Golden retreiver puppy from Kapspets. The owner of Kapspets promised me papers for my puppy which he said would take "at the most 75 days". I was charged for the papers too. My puppy is 6 months old now and I have been following up almost every week for the papers. The owner has been using abusive language on the phone and refuses to give my papers. I have no idea if my puppy is a pure breed and I had to go through hell over the phone with a person who seems extremely unstable in the mind. I strongly request OLX to take action against such people from advertising and victimising OLX customers to such frivolous actions. I was absolutely cheated and verbally abused by Kapspets.

Olx Ad ID: [protected], the guy from this ad posted tat selling hyundai getz good condition car...but i was disappointed when i saw the car ..it was not in good condtion..power widows are not working, radiator water leakage, inside both rear door handles are not available..he told "door handle are available in kozhikode market, he will arrange, other issues are we can fix". i trusted his words, in that assurance i gave him Rs.2000, after that as he told i went to kozhikode to buy the spares but no spares available in the market..so i told him to cancel the deal and return the adv money...but he refused to return back...he is fraud..he just collecting money from clients and cheating lik this...please take immediate action against him asap...

This is to inform you that I have an account of olx app and have posted few adds too but few users of olx accounts are unnecessarily behaving wrong and sending inappropriate messages that can't be entertained and accepted at any cost. I request you to take action against it and block their account since such people are not good for a reputed company and they create trouble for people like us to use this app. Kindly do the needful.

The Ad ID: [protected] in olx is this. Named by tanmay jana. Today morning he sold me an iPhone 6s 64 GB with serial number and money receipt. He took from me 20000. How a customer or a seller get into without verification website. I am very poor employee in money, i just get 14, 890 It's so tough if I lost 20000, even I could not use it also. Iphone duplicate with android os.
I just want back the money and should be punished those who deals with that.

I am Susam Ghatak, email id [protected]@gmail.com, phone no - [protected].

I have brought a lg 7 kg washing machine from a dealer from olx name is shoaib. The dealer is a total fraud. He gave us a machine which is totally no use. Although he has advertised as new and give free home delivery. From the very first day we are facing issue on that. He has given one year warranty, but after delivering the machine he is not atleast picking up the call. I think olx should take step against this. Or this olx is slowly becoming a place of doing fraud. I have lost clear 6000 rupees to that person shoaib.

I have bought Iphone-6s 64Gb through Olx.in before 5 days from a stranger. I have paid him 32k and took it. After reaching home i have observed a small bright spot in iphone display. By next day it started shutting down randomly. As it is in warranty i have approached Apple care. After 4 days they have informed me that this mobile is not eligible for services because its already undergone repairs by outsource people. I have paid him Rs.32000 please me out. Thank You.

I would like to inform you that a guy claiming he is Nigerian Citizen named Patrick K Barnett messages people selling items on olx and asks them their number and says that hel initiate the payment through bank of america, to which an email is received from a fake email of bank of america, demading that unless we do not upload the shipment tracking receipt of the item, they will not releasse the payment.
he says he wants it for an orphanage and hes from maryland nigeria
this happened to me yestrday night where i shared my account details to this person.i found this guy fishy as he was very upfront in transferring me the money amount and told me to send the laptop through fedex to a nigeria adress.
i was of the thought that unless i do not get the money i will not send my laptop as i could smell a sense of deception.my gut feeling became strong when i received the email which looked so fake and unprofessional from bank of america with red and green highlights and it demanded me the below two condtions:
1)You have to reply to this message with the shipment tracking number/shipment scanned receipt before we can activate this fund to your account, or

2)Pay to the courier agent representative account and forward us the receipt of payment of ₹8.000.00INR including your home address and mobile no so as to visit your residential address for collection, IN PARTNER WITH (INTERNATIONAL COURIER SERVICE DTDC, DHL, FEDEX, INDIAN POST & UPS) immediately the courier agent payment receipt is received we released you fund in less than "ONE HOUR".

NOTE:You are to reply with either of the two procedures so as to place an order to india government banking system for "Creditation" of fund into your account.

i understood that this a fraud message and thought of researching this on internet and typed his name patrick k barnett olx fraud.
i came across so many complaints against him filed on consumer compalints india.so many people have been cheated by this guy.
luckily i did not send my apple laptop worth 70, 000 i would have ruined my life.

I have been continuously trying to post a free ad of my motorcycle for sale and without any reason it is falling under the moderated column, i am a regular user of OLX, and have never faced any issue as such, but this time its really irritating, I want the management to look through this issue as early as possible and resolve it so that I can continue trading or might have to shift to another site.
