For the last 3 to 4 years RD sweepstakes is fooling the public.Now i recd a cover posted on 27/12/10 fro Panvel HO recd by me on 8/01/11 and contents that I will receive a cover with envelop marked as "urgent enclosures".In the letter there is no phone no and e mail address nor mobile nos and address given as P.O.BOX NO 30 Panvel HO PANVEL -410206 INDIA AND THE LETTER SIGNED BY Mr.VIKAS MALHOTRA AND PERCY POONEGAR as chairman and finance director respectively.If they want us to contact them why they are not mentioning full phone nos/e mail address etc.

Dear Sir,
Every now n then I am receiving Reader's Digest sweepstakes letter along with Lottery ticket that I am Grand Prize winner of Rs. 32,00,000.00 Cash prize. They have sent me three numbers of dummy cheqes, saying that it is just example of cheques not original cheqe amounting in lcks of rupees.

Pl. advice,

regards,
Mr. U V Vernekar

Hi,

I have recieved a letter from readers digest regarding sweeptakes is it really true? Just i wanted to know whether any body got benefited from this or not. Does it make any sense of replying to these letters? Please let me know.. please dont cheat.

Thanking you.. Gowri cs w/of Sudarshan T, manjunatha Nilaya, near shanthappa house maruthi nagar, Arsikere. Hassan Dist karnataka ph no [protected]

Reader digest is cheating everyone with the prize letters.
Anyone replying to the prize mails will have to buy books which are useless. The prize letters will have one line mentioned in somewhere in the pile of pages received. Once you reply to any of the letters you will get a gift of some useless object and a book. You will continue to receive these kind of gifts for many months and there will be follow up letter which says you have to pay the due amount. The money will gradually raise and they will respond with harsh followup letters if you don't pay the amount. In the end you will end up paying a huge sum of money over months and you will know that you will never get the lakhs or cars

Never fall for readers digest and I suggest you go for better magazines with good standards.
In my experience Reader digest follows a third rate business tactics which is not even followed by telemarketers.

dear sir, my name is sandepogu sindhuri, i have received a letter from reader's digest sweepstakes department verifying that i have been listed as a potential winner for thank you prize worth 18, 000, 00 as of september, 2011, i am really thankful for that.it has also been mentioned that they will be sending me some documents regarding the prize to my home within 14 days from the day i receive this letter, but i did not receive any such documents mentioned yet, hope u consider my complaint and let me know ur answer, please inform me to my email address, [protected]@yahoo.com or contact me on my personal number.., [protected].thank u.

Respected Sir,

Mr. J. Mathew Sir this Miss C. Mellita Jeyashree. For your kind information. I am no more Mrs. Mellita Jeyashree as i have got divorced from my husband. So i kindly request you to send all my two year money as cash or cheque leaf and the gifts you regard to give me please give it to any orphanage home or old age home instead of giving me. It will be very useful for them. So i again request you not to send any of your sweepstakes committee 's letters, any official corresspondence or any other of your Reader's Digest informations.Please don't send it to my address.

Dated on the 2nd February, 2011
12th March, 2011.

To
M/S. Reader’s Digest,
Mumbai.

Kind Attention: Director, Finance.

Dear Sir,

Sub: Double payment of Annual subscription for the Reader’s Digest for one year.

Ref : Subscription No.[protected] against Account No.[protected], and my E-Mail
to you on 02/02/2011 ([protected]@rdasia.co.in is no more friend, but a foe?)

This informs you that the letter dated 21.12.2010 has demanded annual subscription for the Reader’s Digest, and I have offered Rs. 449/- to be debited to my ICICI Bank Credit Card No.[protected]. On the bill I have mentioned in pencil “I presume the payment has already been made”. On Verification it is confirmed that the payment has been made through a demand from your Delhi Office and the amount has been debited to my Credit Card on 28/12/2010. Despite my request in the bill and an E-mail on 10/01/2011, an amount of Rs. 449/- has been debited to my same Credit Card by your Mumbai Office on 22/01/2011. This shows that the magazine, with multi-establishments, is having no coordination and interaction with each other and also shows explicitly how the Company cares for and responds mails sent by the Customers. On this I would have renamed the Magazine DIGEST READERS instead of Reader’s Digest.

Surprisingly enough a parcel containing a book which was never ordered by the undersigned has been sent to my address with a demand for Rs. 699/- which I shall neither pay nor return the parcel till I get a response for this letter refunding Rs 449. Now I can presume that “NO” reply envelop is not being kept in the Sweepstakes junk intentionally, thus making the reader a forcible buyer as he replies in the “YES” reply envelop, taking him for a sucker.

Further, I would request you to instruct your staff concerned to stop sending predated Sweepstakes Articles to me from this date as I feel something fishy in this.

So kindly look into the matter, against double deduction and refund the amount of a sincere and honest Septuagenarian.

Today I received a second gift parcel of the same books for the annual subscription. I apprehend to receive two prints of the same Readers’ Digest magazine every month. Kindly stop it.

Thanking you,
Yours truly,


S. Balasubramanian.

Sending Sweepstakes documents to wrong addressees. A/c.[protected]‏


Kind attention Mr. Rajesh Mundra,
To day I received Sweepstakes Documents bearing Ref Code:[protected]. The letter is addressed to me and signed by Priya Gandhi, but containing the Sweepstakes documents in the name of Anju Agarwal. Some months ago the documents in the name of one Mrs. Sen, and another time the enclosures were those of a 20 Bn. NCC Cadet. What bunkum is this? Is it a serious effort to deprive both contestents from participating? If your staff are jealous about our participation after buying products of Reader's Digest for a value around 50, 000/- INR, please send no further junks.

There is also a postal Complaint of not including a 'NO' Reply envelope in the cover resulting in the dispatch of a non-ordered publication and demand of money which is still under correspondence. A copy is attached.

Best wishes with thanks,
Yours truly,
S. Balasubramanian,

reader digest — Order not received

I have purchased the “Extraordinary Uses for Ordinary Things” in my online shopping through your website. You have promised the free gift along with it, Rs 499/- is debited from my account. Till date I have not received the items.

When I contact the company It say "due to some technical error at our end, the recent online orders are kept on hold and are expected to place the same in another 2 weeks of time". Pls. I request don't shop with them " Reader Digest" very bad service after debiting the amount, now it's we are at their mercy.

reader digest — online shopping

sir i order online reader diesest invoice no - rdcar[protected]
dt 16/06/2010 on behalf of luckydraw scheme.but till now no information
no email no reciev reader diesest.

I support Rajesh's point. I am also a victim of the same mental harrassment.
I was a big fan of the magazine till now.

I have also received unwanted gifts and copies and now 'am asked to pay 699/- for accepting the same which I am not going to.

It seems the company is finding it difficult to survive in the higly competitive market and resorting to such mean strategies. But let me be very clear, this is infact working against the company and loosing the customer base very fast.

Thanks,

Reader's Digest — NON-DECLARATION OF RESULT OF SWEEPSTAKES RESULT

THE COMPANY HAD CLAIMED THAT IT WOULD BE DECLARING RESULTS OF THE SWEEPSTAKES FOR 2009 BUT TILL DATE NOTHING HAS BEEN DECLARED.

When are they going to declare the results for the 2009 sweepstakes? It should have been done by Jany 2010. I haven't seen any result declared anywhere. I believe the Company may be financially bankrupt and hence delaying the result. Is there any forum where I can lodge a complaint?

Reader's Digest — Subscription paid- issue not received

I have paid the subscription for one year for recieving Reader's digest monthly issues while recieving the gift books by VPP. But the issue for AUGUST 2010 has not been recieved till today.

Reader's Digest is an unprofessional and unethical organisation who are cheating and looting people. Strongly urge people not to fall into their trap. I felt for this trap and subscribed on 24-May-2011 however even as of today 31-Oct-2011 neither did I get the gift nor the subscription, and to by despair I did not get my refund post cancellation. Have been dropping mails and speaking to their customer care agents to get the refund, but no one has an answer to my queries. Spoke to their agents, team lead (Rakesh Singh) and Assistant Manager Muskan Jain as well. But none responded to my mails. Finally have decided to take them to consumer court; so that no one else goes through the same ordeal ever again.

The last letter I recieved was on 1st February 2012, telling me to update my subscription for 2012..in the same letter even sweepstake contest sentences were mentioned..and 1 line was of sweepstake being in final draw of competition.. Now you say that competition results were declared in last week of jan..what rubbish is this..I am getting confused and disheartened with lies .If any truth prevails kindly let me know the truth..please donot scam us people who have blind faith in you..Readers digest is one magazine which my parents and thier patrents have read..i[censored] cant email me atleast send me a reply on the subject as i am your subscriber...u have my subscriber no also..do not let me be confused about prolonging my association with you...my inlaw who resides with me also is your subscriber and so are my friends..so please donot let your readers down by scamming us..ThankYou...

Hi I am Vinod subscribed RD in 2011 and Participated in sweepstakes 2011. I have received many documents saying that i will be the winner of 1 Cr which is not TRUE. I can say one thing that sweepstakes is REALLY a false and bogus. I have paid more than 6000/- towards sweepstakes from Jan 2011 to till March 2012. Don't believe them anymore. Its their technique to sell their products using sweepstakes. They are cheating us. At back side of the documents it has been announced that the results will be published in Mumbai edition (Local- Times of India) on Jan 24th 2012 which also a false statement. Don't purchase their products anymore.

i got the so many pump let and letters, i m the finalist, but i m not sure about it they give me money and when result declare it is not mention in the letter. so please inform me what is the current situation

Sweepstakes Rules | Privacy Policy

My partner entered a sweepstakes competition to win big prize money ammounts and a Mercededes bense. She was told to pick yes or no for a subscription, if you tick yes you get the chance to win alot more, if you tick no you still go into some form of draw. She ticked no, it asked again, this is another chance, its not too late tick yes and subscribe to RD magazine to be in the running to win more. She ticked no again, it thanked her and said she was still in the smaller draw. Few days later we recieved a RD magazine and a subscription bill for around $50 AUD. IT IS A SCAM, they continue to harrass her for the subscription money even after the magazine, and future magazines were returned and they were notified of their mistake. SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM !!!

I have also fell into readers' digest sweepstakes scam and subscribed for a year last year 2010. I asked to cancel this year's subscription and they say that my subscription "has been terminated as per requested". BUT... they didn't cancel my bill of SGD99.00!!!
They still ask a "Active Debt Collections Service" to ask for payment from me and say in bold that "We are instructed that this letter is a FINAL DEMAND."

What the [censored]??? I don't owe them anything anymore!! Stop asking me for payment!!! I sent another letter to them already. Will update here when they reply...

Reader digest is cheating everyone with the prize letters.
Anyone replying to the prize mails will have to buy books which are useless. The prize letters will have one line mentioned in somewhere in the pile of pages received. Once you reply to any of the letters you will get a gift of some useless object and a book. You will continue to receive these kind of gifts for many months and there will be follow up letter which says you have to pay the due amount. The money will gradually raise and they will respond with harsh followup letters if you don't pay the amount. In the end you will end up paying a huge sum of money over months and you will know that you will never get the lakhs or cars

Never fall for readers digest and I suggest you go for better magazines with good standards.
In my experience Reader digest follows a third rate business tactics which is not even followed by telemarketers.
