On 9 october 2017, i got an invitation to apply for the post of marketing manager for one company called ramatex company in singapore. Upon applying i got a call saying i was one of those selected for a telephonic interview on 13th october, 2017.

On successful completion of the first interview on 13th october, 2017, i was asked to be ready for another interview on 21st october, 2017. I was told i passed this interview also.

I was also asked to deposit rs.3, 500/- in order to verify my educational and experience certificates through iso certified agency and rs.16, 400/- to get my ipa (In-principal-approval) to get work permit in singapore. I paid in cash rs.3, 500/- on 16.10.2017 towards the documents verification and rs.16, 400/- towards ipa on 30/10/2017. I was told rs.16, 400/- is refundable after i began working in singapore. I deposited these amounts accordingly in the name of global india in their current account in karur vysaya bank ltd.

I was told i would get the ipa in ten days' time. Till date, i have not received the ipa. On calling up one mr. Salman usmani who was the recruiting agent with one vinod k and with whom i was corresponding by email and on phone, i am told the phone is switched off and there is no response to my email queries.

I can only conclude this whole episode is fraudulent.

I also wrote to [protected]@shine.com on the 14th november, 2017 about this episode. I have not yet received any response.

Kindly let me know if i can get my monies back.

Hello!
Yesterday i got a call from one mr. Kartik (Cell no. [protected]) asking me to download oxigen.com and forward a payment of 10% of the amount of rs.19, 900/- i have paid global india for job in singapore. Accordingly, i downloaded oxigen.com and transferred rs.1, 000/- through oxigen.com to mr. Kartik's cell number. I could not transfer balance rs.1, 000/- as i got a recorded message from oxigen.com that i cannot make payment of more than rs.1, 000/- immediately after registration and this can only happen after 24 hours.

Today i got a call from one mr. Atul ahuja (Cell no.[protected]), purportedly also from consumer complaint.com asking me to make no payment to anyone and to download an app called bhim. When i went to bhim i could see this is also an app used for transferring payments.

Kindly let me know if mr. Kartik and mr. Atul ahuja are employees of consumercomplaints?

Regards,

I have contacted shine.com and again complained to them my issue has not been resolved. I have also told them i will take legal action if my issue remains unresolved.

No satisfactory response from shine.com!
Updated by titusrock, mar 14, 2018
Regret no response in spite of months after filing complaint.

I contacted karur vysya bank ltd. And asked if the current account of global india where i had deposited the payments of rs.3, 500/- and rs.16, 400/- still existed and was orally informed that this account existed.

The bank informed me i can do nothing unless i came through the "right channels". When asked what was the "right channel" the bank manager could not respond.

I am not using shine.com for any job application until my problem is satisfactorily resolved.

Sincerely,

I applied for job in shine.com.. I got msg from careerrecruitment for airport ground staff job. I paid 2000 rupees.. And then they askd for 6000 rupees, when i asked for details, dey r not responding correctly.. Its a total fraud company.. I want the refund of my amont 2000 rupess.
Then i called them contiuosly,, they r asking for 6000 and not responding correctly. There is no assurance of job.. They are asking money for every round.. This is completley fake. Please dont belive it.. And i want my money back and i m going to complaint about it to police and i have evry call record and payment copy and email.

Hi, my name is neha sharma. I got a call from shine about the reference service costing rs 3103 for 6 months. I was explained that my profile will be taken care by experts and my resume will be re done by them. I will be given login id and paasword for my dashboard where i can apply for jobs and my resume will be forwarded to the companies. Simultaneously i will be shared the contact number of the top management people (Or person taking careof hiring process) for the company.. I was told that they will arrange an call back from expert to whom i need to tell all my requirements about the job profile and expectations about salary package, etc.
Today i receive a call from an experst asking me to pay rs 12000 for the resume service.
My concern is regarding that only.
Why this cost was not told to me??
Is rs 12000 is so low for you that you choose to ignore and tell to customer.
Why it was told previously that in rs 3103 amount which i paid my resume will be re - done?
The sales pitch of the service offered was such that i need to pay this amount only and no extra payment is required to be done.

It was very very very disappointing, after i told i cant pay rs 2000 i wes told bluntly that i case i dont pay they dont take any responsibility ofd the job. There is no guarantee that i willbe contacted for the interview or conatcted by the company. If this rs 12000 hidden cost service was the baseline for everything, according to which job offerrs will be done, dont you think this should have been communicated.
Please address to this issue on priority. I am so much disappointed with the behavious and approach of the executives that i am reluctant to take any chance and take this sevice forward. Pleasearrange for my refund as i am not sure there may me more hidden cost to it. Customers cant be fooled this way.

There is a service promise from Shine and they have taken 37k, today i received a call from a number +[protected], assuring that whatever amount has been paid by youwill be refunded back,
To my surprise, in order to do so they ask you to pay first 9999 to a paytm account of kamlesh from noida through any of your debit card number, dont get into all these fraud calls any way where they promise to refund the same plus all other amount taken previously to the same account
