PepsiCo India Complaints & Reviews

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...

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

recently i bought a Pepsi from one of the stalls in ALAPUZHA BUS STATION,
the MRP is Rs22/- and the shopkeeper were selling it for RS24/-...
this is poor piece of selling which has to be noted by Pepsico India.......

Today on 27.08.09, we purchased some cold drink bottles from MORE Market in Nasik - Gangapur Road - Ganesh Glory Branch.One of them was SLICE - Mango Juice . This bottle contains some Black Particles & some contamination inside. This Bottle is still in sealed condition & is purchased with bill.
Pl guide, how to to take action against them.?

Respected sirmadam
Sub: We haver Recived harmful meterial in pepsi bottle
We are running well known Vikas consumer protection & research centre at ahmedabad, gujarat, india
since last 11years old
We have solve so manny complain regarding pepsi coldrinks we are allready inform in your company in india but we can't get proper answer from your india offecie
we hope that you will have to solve this problem as possiable as soon,
our office address is
VIKAS CONSUMER PROTECTION & RESEARCH CENTRE
11, SHRI KRISHNA COMLEX, OPP UCO BANKS FLATS, BHUDARPURA ROAD, AMBAWADI, AHMEDABAD, GUJARAT, INDIA, PH[protected], 40022134,

WE ARE SUPPOSED TO RECEIVE 2 X 25L JARS OF AQUAFINA IN OUR OFFICE EVERY ALTERNATE DAY.

THIS IS A STANDING INSTRUCTION FOR OUR OFFICE AND SIMILAR ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN REQUESTED AT
ALL THE 3 RESIDENTIAL PREMISES.

IT IS UNFORTUNATE TO STATE THAT PEPSI BEING ONE OF THE LARGEST AND MOST REPUTED MULTINATIONAL COMPANY, HAS LEAST BOTHERED TO CHECK ON THEIR CUSTOMERS SATISFACTION LEVELS.

WE HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING REGULARLY ABOUT THE POOR STATE OF SERVICE OFFERED BY pepsi AS WE HAVE TO KEEP CALLING THE CALL CENTRES FOR REFILL DELIVERIES EVERY WEEK.

THIS TIME IT IS GONE BEYOND THE TOLERABLE LIMITS AS OUR OFFICE IS OUT OF WATER AS ALL THE JARS ARE EMPTY SINCE PAST 5 DAYS.
INSPITE OF REPEATED REMINDERS, FROM 13TH AUG, PEPSICO HAS FAILED TO DELIVER INSPITE OF COMMITMENTS AND ASSURANCES.
IF THERE WAS A PROBLEM OF SUPPLY OR PRODUCTION, THEY SHOULD HAVE INFORMED US TO MAKE SUITABLE ARRANGEMENTS, INSTEAD THE GUYS SIMPLY FOOLED US BY GIVING FALSE ASSURANCES.
THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE, AS THE PRICE PAID FOR A QUALITY PRODUCT INCLUDES AN EQUALLY GOOD SERVICE BACKUP.

IT IS VERY DISSAPOINTING TO PUT THESE FACTS IN BLACK N WHITE, BUT OUR AIM IS TO BRING THE PEOPLE RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE LAPSES, TO TASK.

I HAVE BEEN PERSONALLY TRYING TO CONTACT THEIR OFFICE, BUT I HAVE ALSO BEEN FOOLED INTO BELIEVING THAT THE DELIVERY IS ON WAY.
MY OFFICE IS JUST 1 KM AWAY FROM THEIR PLANT, AND IT TAKES NOT MORE THAN 10 MINS TO REACH US.
I HAD GIVEN AN OPTION OF DELIVERING JUST 1 JAR IMMEDIATELY BY ALTERNATIVE PUBLIC TRANSPORT, BUT THE REQUEST WAS TURNED DOWN FLATLY.

I TRIED CONTACTING Mr.BHARAT AND Ms.KAVITA, BUT NEITHER OF THEM ANSWERED MY CALLS.

THIS IS NOT TOLERABLE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

THE HEIGHT OF CARELESSNESS AND THE IGNORANT ATTITUDE MAKES ONE TO BELIEVE -
"IS THIS THE TRUE FACE OF PEPSI?"
         

My name is R.karthikeyan I am staying in oil monger street, royapettah chennai-14. in shops near my house they are selling the pepsi, cocacola, etc, . at rs22. But it actual m.r.p price mentioned in the product is rs20..
I asked them why should i give rs22. when the m.r.p is rs20.. the man in the shop told me it is 22rs only i[censored] want means buy or go.. the shops are located near jambazar police station itself... It is not only in this area every where the shopkeeper are selling at higher price only.. my contact number is [protected]. please do inform me what action you would take against this complaint...
