Mail received on 02.04.10


Attention: T.M.Selvakumari,

Regarding my meeting with the two top officers in your Reserve Bank of India, i was made to understand by them that they have gone through similar process before now that after they have made the transfer, there will not hear from the beneficiary again and the documents of the beneficiary will remiains with them, so there said they cant take such risk to proceed first with the transfer.

I also told them that it will not be possible for you to give each of them 5 lack because there have not done the transfer and you people have borrowed money with intrest which you have to return back and they told me that all what there can do for you people is to reduce it to 3 lack each and after that, the transfer will take place within 15 mins and afterthe transfer, the balance will be paid to them or else, there is no way them will proceed.

When i was wih them, i told them to call you people so that you can speak your local language but they said there is no need to talk to you people for security reasons because they knows what there are doing is illegal and this are the top officers in your Reserve Bank and i never knew that your country is so currupt in this way.

Please go through this email and get back to me immediately because we have to do something as soon as possible due to the time limit i have here.

Thanks for the understanding so far.

My Regards.

Diplomat Stev Brown.

In some places in chennai-Tamil Nadu, inside Movie theatres, the MRP of slice bottle is printed as 50rs and being sold as 50rs.
But, outside theatres if you buy in some other shops, the MRP general rate is printed in slice bottles as just 25 Rs only.
I am not sure whether the PEPSICO company itself prints 50Rs on slice bottles and sells to moview theatres or does Movie theatre owners print their own amount as 50 Rs and sells.
Selling 25rs worth bottles as 50rs mrp printed is outrageous. Please do something on this. paying 25rs extra is cheating inside theatres. If mrp is 25 printed and they sell as 50rs..that is fine. but how COME MRP ITSELF IS PRINTED AS 50RS ON SAME SLICE BOTTLE WHICH HAS MRP PRINTED 25RS OUTSIDE THEATRES.

With my family i had gone to see movie on 27th december, 2009. Outside food is not allowed inside the theatre. Agreed. However that does not give the liberty to them to charge exhorbitant prices. I purchased popcorn small size which cost Rs. 65 and 1 litre water bottle of Aquafina at Rs. 30 the great shock was that the price of rs. 30 printed on the bottle. this is real cheating of innocent consumers. Why such huge prices we are anyhow paying ticket charges. This plunder should be stopped somewhere. moreover they dont offer any bill for the same. i request to kindly look into the matter

I bought lehar soda at a shop....and i paid 12 ruppes but shop person demanded one more rupee. i asked that MRP shows only Rs.12. he replied that i am getting bottle for Rs.12 with out cooling.so i wil give for Rs.12 with out cooling....i got angry and given back. and before that i noted down pepsi

Respected Sir,
In a blatant violation of the Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, a bottle of soft drink product name SLICE. That bottle have fungus and ants. I am from hyderabad a.p. My contact no is [protected].

i am a resident of malakpet,hyderabad.all the shops in the vicinity charge Re.1 on every drink they sell.when i asked them they said that it was a cooling charge.why do they need to charge one rupee more then the MRP ?they already get the fridge from the company and also lots of profits.hence i request the authorities to do something.

pf no:WB/6926/529 WITHDRAWL OF P.F CLAIM DEPOSITED TO EMPLOYER SEPTEMBER 09 WHEATHER DEPOSITED OR NOT TO THE P.F OFFICE.IF DEPOSITED AT ALL WHEN I WILL BE GETTING THE AMMOUNT.

Yesterday on 19th Nov. 2009,I purchased a Pepsi 1/2 Litre Plastic Bottle from shop near to Sec-23 Market,Faridabad,Haryana. At the time of purchase I did not check Manufacturing Date of that bottle.
But at home when I was going to drink to that pepsi I read that Manufacturing Date was 11.08.2009 and it should be consumed with in three months of manufactruing.So it's expiry date was 11.11.2009.
That means shopkeeper sold expired Pepsi to me,which could have caused major illness to me. I was saved as I read the Manufacturing Date at time.Otherwise it could have very serious effect on me and my family.

When I went to return that Pepsi to shopkeeper but he refused to take it back as it was opened.

Pls take action so that others are saved from drinking expired Pepsi.

I am running A class Bakery counter in Delhi in uttam Nagar area . My ID number is 5240 and I have a branch in the name of Super Fine Bakery at Hastsal Road Uttam Nagar .We are selling pure pepsi brand at our shops.Company has provided a bottle coolerat above stated shop it is not in workig conditionMr Mathur is incharge of this area and he visited the shop and see the bottle coller .and promise the same but all in vain now today he denied the replacement of old bottle cooler with his order that you have to purchase product by my agency not by the company"s routine truck why this person is compelling me todo so. This mean this person wants to shift me from pepsi to coke. I think this Mr Mathur is working against the company.This person is in sales Department and I have not seen him in the market whether he is employed to sit in the Ac office.I call him to inspect the cooler by many phone by me. Mr suresh and Mr Vinod Sharma also requested him to visit the shop after all thes aproch Mr Mathur visit my shop and give me his decision. Now I want to know whether this person is loyal to pepsi or coke . His this behaviour will break the heart of the Delears. I hope you will look into the matter.

My child had food poisoning twice after having oats from one of the Quaker packets. She has had same oats in the past but not had a prob. However, this particular packet had substandard quality of the product.

PEPSI OR GUTKA
Gurgaon, Aug 14
In a blatant violation of the Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, a bottle of soft drink containing a pack of ‘gutka’ (tobacco) was sold to a customer in Haryana Gurgaon Sec 7.
Harish, running his firm in the area, had ordered cold drinks a couple of days ago from a nearby retailer and was shocked to see the pack of tobacco in the sealed bottle. Interestingly, the name of the gutka company ‘Jyanti’ is readable through the soft drink bottle.
He immediately go back to the Retailer, Om Prakash, asking him to lodge a formal complaint for the same. After that I Lodge complain at customer care of Pepsi as a result I received a call from [protected] this no.& he said “ that this is not a big issue and such incidents are common. He even asked me to return the bottle, but I refused as I want the authorities concerned to take up the matter seriously



Thereafter the I brought the matter to the notice of Ms SIMI MEHTA & Mr SUNIL DUGGAL working in Corporate office of Pepsi in Gurgaon, the senior official of Pepsi, But no action has been taken by them.
Pepsi has a bottling unit in Alwar Bhiwadi, which caters to the region.
Yogesh Sharma, ([protected] )Officer of Pepsi Co, Inspected the bottle at my home & admitted THIS IS A ORIGINAL BOTTEL & FILLED IN BHIWADI & IT IS A BIG MISTAKE BY OUR PEOPLE AND HE ASSURE ME THAT COMPANY WILL GIVE U A REWARD & NECESSARY ACTION WILL BE TAKEN BY THE Co. AGAINST YOUR COMPLAINT BUT I AM SORRY TO SAY THAT THIS FELLOW IS NOT ATTENDING MY PHONE

Now I am helpless please help me.

i ankit dua bought a lehar soda bottel last week,i found a rust old cap of bottel inside a sealed bottel of
lehar soda,also the rust particles.This our indian company,pepsi.so,you what i will do for this.reply soon.
ankit dua

At R.T.D.C. midway Behror many vendors charge extra rupees than M.R.P. stating it as 'Refrigeration cost'.I asked for the ice-cream cone which cost Rs. 18,he asked for Rs. 25,when I objected he said no to me.
Same happened at Sindi Camp,Jaipur, a restaurant named traffic jam charged Rs.25 for pepsi bottle of Rs. 20.I objected strongly,then he returned me 5 rupees.
At many places vendors charge extra money stating it as "Refrigeration Cost" ,why it is so?Is it valid to give extra money more than M.R.P.?
Please look after this matter immediately.Being a big tourism hub in Rajasthan this should not be done,it will have bad impact on our tourism industry.

I bought a 600ml Pepsi bottle and to my horror i found the cap completely moulded... I cannot open it along the thread!!! When i returned to the shop-keeper he said his supplier wouldnt take it back since it was tampered(the bottle cap became misaligned when i tried to open it)!!! Then they had to use a knife to cut the whole plastic cap and gave it to me...
It was a pretty embarrassment!! Im living in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India... I dont even know if its real or duplicate... But seing my experience it certainly looks like a duplicate to me!!! If its real then i wana kick someone's from PEPSI.. :x
