Dear Sir
Shine.com taken wrongly payment of Rs 3292 and Rs 6838 from me. When I make Rs 3292 payment the company executive said this is final payment for services after that Kuldeep (Mobile no [protected]) called me and speak with me half an hour and ask for Rs. 6838 payment when I did this payment he again asked for more payment i.e Rs 9675. My request you to please refund my Rs 3292 payment and Rs 6838 payment ASAP.

I get a call from the representative of shine.Com that they will provide premium services and there will be some charge for it. I have made the payment. But after that their other employee's call comes and seeing the wrong information they charge me 2 times that this will be the last payment. But after that 3rd time again mail the payment. And when asked about refund, they refuse by telling the policy. While he had not told about any such policy earlier.

I paid for the UK based and India services today 13 May 2023. then they said Relationship manager will call you. same day today while having call he asked me to pay 7197. i asked him is the final amount i have to pay? as i cannot afford more than this amount. he said yes. then again, he asked me to check my mail and ask me to complete that transaction and the amount was around 12, 000. he said without this transaction cannot be completed. i said you have not told me before about this additional amount, i cannot afford this much money for searching the job. i really felt cheated. Please cancel my service which i just booked.
they should have told us clearly the amount breakup and services properly and not misguide. this is really bad experience. Please cancel both the services

The imposter robbed me of Rs 3292/- for assured job in my area. Then after a few days, the imposter said that they are not able to serve their clients and hence are returning the amount. In this process of bluff they asked to receive the amount my typing 'rcv3292inmyaccount' as note in GPay and again robbed me of Rs 3292/-.
Moreover, he asked to continue the process of GPay with Rs 6584/- more to get back the paid money, but I refused.
In all, I paid Rs 6584/- to him, and he is not returning that.

Really worst service from shine, i have taken a service today the executive is totally making our self to forcing for other services which is not at all relevent but he is forcing me to pay for other services and telling that you will not get jobs sir if you are not paying for it.

i have asked to refund my money back he said shine.com doesnt have refund policy and he is saying not going to active my services if i am not paying money further. When i checked with how much more to pay for the entire service he said nothing more than that except the verifcation and we will take of you till your carrier.

I have taken service for Rs 3292/- (resume booster and display) and he told to me take one more service for Rs 5192.00/- (Background verification) when i paid this he is asking me to pay for one more service which is cost 9+K really fraud service, he was in call until i pay, he didnt let me cut the call even after i said i cant pay the money.

he is saying with out taking one more service i can't proceed "
what nonsense is this, he is litterly bulling and forcing to take service, He used more harsh words. please don't buy this package, shine is really worst.
I m not sure whether will i get refund or not but those who are going to pay even after checking these reviews, Please dont fall for their scam.

Hello I am Pallavi Pradhan. On 22nd April, 2023 I got call from (Simran) from Gurugram stating that she is from Shine.com company, and after asking the location and job which I wanted to do she gave me number of another man (Akhilesh Kumar) who asked me to send all the details (passport size photo, I'D proof, and latest marksheet). For registration they asked me to pay 750 rupees, which I paid. After the aptitude test on 23rd April, 2023,...

I have only one thing to share with everyone in India. Pls don’t ever think of taking their services. It is a fraud company. With only one intention of making money. Their executive will make lot of false promises with no support. I have lost 3 lakh with no support. If you have money better donate it to a charity rather getting cheated by them

I got a call from shine.com for paid service where I paid 3105 for premium package. I paid the amount and got a call from RK sahu(+[protected] and he explained me asked asked to pay the amounts one by one. It came around 35k and paid it. After that he sent another link for 24k just to enable the notification to receive the job alert to my WhatsApp. Since I denied to pay he is forcing me like anything and raising his voice at the max. And also mentioned that they will not guarantee that I get the job opportunities. Please help me in getting my amount refunded. I will never use shine at any cost here after

Initially I got a call from shine.com for paid service where I paid 3k. After that I received a call from shine experts and forced me to pay 35k. Again he sent an email for 24k just for enabling notification part. Since I refused to pay he is raising his voice like that I cannot grantee on job and also I will have only less visibility since I didn't opt that service. Please help me in getting my amount refunded

Mr. Ranveer Pandey from Shine.com have contacted me from ([protected] & [protected] & [protected] ) through [protected]@shine.com and asked to make a payment of 3292 initially for 1year then later he has reduced the price to 3001 with 6months validity and providing commitment to provide a job in a week time and also will increase the validity from 6months to 1 year. This incident has happened 3rdMay2023 and 4thMay2023 is when I am writing this complaint here.

The process explained was that once the payment is done the relationship manager would call and understand the profile and help you in getting your dream job. And no more payment is required.

Later, Once I made the payment, I received a call from the relationship manager (Mr. Rohit -[protected]) to make another payment for getting my verification done through Shine.com and that was about 5192 and when i told i need a time to decide to make another payment the person started showing his character and started saying to make the payment immediately if not this service would not be valid and started saying that 'Appko Job thodi na chahiye', he wasnt ready to give me a space to think on this and nor ready to share the complete process after making this payment.
I have been asking him to let me know the complete process which i need to go through while looking for a job from Shine.com.. He denied to provide the complete info.. On several request he just sent an email with 2 statement and not the entire process and started forcing me to make immediate payment of 5192.
I denied and asked time. I also felt Rohit and Ranveer both were same person by hearing their voice.

Next day I contacted Ranveer and asked to share a refund process since i havent yet completed 24hrs paid for this services and he started to talk rudely and told the money cannot be refunded. We told we may raise a complain but he wasnt bother for that and told 'Hume Darr nahi lagta', he didnt try to solve the problem or guide us a way to close this. I did sent him an email and yet to receive a response from him.

This complain I am writing to explain that they talk very professionally and try to convince that you will get a job. Doesnt do more communication over email and call you multiples time. This Ranveer is been following with me from 2 months hence it created a confident in me to make the payment..

They will provide many reasons to showcase why they are charging you for very step you use their services and ask payment.

They dont use any bad words but they try to provoke you and say some statement to make the payment. Statement Like ' 100% Job assurance', 'One week time to get you onboarded', 'This is a small investments and can get you higher returns', 'You can pause this package once you get a job and later you can activate whenever you have a job needs in future', 'Your profile is strong and getting job is very easy for you', ' your profile needs some improvement hence you may need to pay for this', etc etc but once payment is done.. They do response but start showing their attitude like' This is only our policy and we cant do anything', 'If you wish to continue then fine if not your wish', 'We can only say things orally and will not write over email'. etc etc..

Please BEWARE OF THEM.

Have attached the payment made yesterday 3rdMay2023 and also attached the invoice of 5Kplus which they have asked to make the payment. And all call history details. Also attached the email sent them for refund or cancellation process.

Hello sir/ ma'am,
I am uttam Sasmal, on 29/04/2023 I received a system generated call from shine.com. As I was very desperate to change my job so I attended the call and the call transferred to one of their member in shine.com where he explained me about paid service with nominal price ₹3073.00/-, and also said they will explain me everything about the service of ₹3073.00/- and would help me to get new job within few days with this amount only without any further payment. So with this information I was convinced to paid the charge.

As soon as I bought the service, this first member asked me to wait for the next call of service expert (rohit upadhyay [protected]) who will explain me about the service for which I paid ₹3073.00/- and would help me to get more information about my job requirements according my preference soon.

Within soom minutes the second member (rohit upadhyay) called me from [protected], who is a service expert. We discussed about job preference, my expectations from job for the starting 5-10min. Then gradually he started his mind game. He asked me to join him & visits the links as per he assist. He told me to go all the links simultaneously with him. They are so much into this job that by forcing you to go simultaneously with them, they will take the "ability to think" from you. They will give you such a big hope, flatter you, make you think that by using their services it could give us dream job. Same thing happened with me.

He told me in order to avail good job, I would have to take one more service " Education verification plus package" Of ₹5192.00/-, this would help me to make my profile better. So I gone for the second payment.

Once this payment is done, he asked me to get one more service "job profile verification plus packages" Of ₹9556.00/-.Now this third time he is asking me to pay, with hesitation I paid the amount. I thought this would be my last payment after this I could enjoy my services.

But then again he said I would have to avail another service "mid level resume writing service" of ₹14158.00/-. I declined this offer and said I have no further money to make payments, but they asked me to pay through credit card and this amount is not big as your dreams. With so many mixed thoughts I approved to use the credit card and paid the amount (4th payment) of ₹14158.00/-.

But post his situation, he didn't stopped his job, he again asked me to avial another service for ₹22302.00/- in which I said I have no money no pay but he knew I have credit card and he forced me to use that. I used again the credit card for the 5th payment of ₹22302.00/- . Here after I came to know that I fall into a trap and can't able to come out I asked him to stop any further services now I am not interested in any of your services. Now that he knows I am getting his intentions his way of talking changes from soft to rude and bossy. He again asked me for the 6th & 7th services worth ₹27791.00/- & ₹37015.00/- and this time he threatened me to pay or else all the previous services would have no meaning. Just to save my previous amount I paid for this 6th & 7th services also. Then one more service was introduced to me with their same so called "promises" That this is the last payment you are doing. I was so exhausted by their trap that if I didn't paid this one my whole previous payment will go in vain. I was forced to pay for the 8th service of ₹30807.00/- . Now that all the payment has been done. Mr rohit didn't entertain much after that and cut the call.

After I calculated my all payment which found to be a huge amount of ₹149822.00/- .It started from small amount to bigger amount. He never mentioned that I have to make such huge payment and 8 different payments. Before every payment he assured me it is the last one and I fall in this blunder. Immediately I called the bank & reported about all these. With the very next day I send them an e-mail to stop my all services as my services were about to start. So I informed them to put halt in my process and refund my money. But I didn't got any answer from them. Next day I called them by somehow arranging the number but they only transferring the call from one to another and nobody is answering related to my query. Then at last waiting for the call whole day I reached to talk to the person who said there is no policy for refund. Either you use it or not. I requested him to consider my concern but how could I forget they all are working in a same "money making trap". Not only he talked rudely but also he changed their norms and terms and conditions. Like As there is no job guarantee(earlier 100%job guarantee), this service is only for 180days(earlier 360days) .

Below are the details of all services for which I paid:
1. Application highlighter service
₹3073.00/-
2. Education verification plus package
₹5192.00/-
3. Job verification plus package
₹9556.00/-
4. Mid level resume writing services
₹14158.00/-
5. Jobs on the move ₹22302.00/-
6. Linkedin profile summary plus package
₹27791.00/-
7. Master in leadership & strategy management training &certification ₹37015.00/-
8. Visual resume for experienced professional plus package
₹30807.00/-

The above services and their total cost price is ₹149822.00/- is such a huge amount for me to pay, please kindly help me to get justice against shine.com by refunding my hard earned money as earliest. Please let me know if you want any other details. I am waiting to hearing back from you.
Thanks and regards!
Uttam

I have subscribed for the following services vide order numbers with Shine.com (HT Media Subsidiary). The call was from Bangalore :

1. CP460720 : Rs 5192.00 active since April 7, 2023

2. CP460715 : Rs. 3657.00 active since April 7, 2023

i was promised to get Job calls in my quest to find a relevant one. I have been unemployed for the past 7 months and even after multiple attempts to contact them; resulted in either disconnection or non-attendance. this has been blatant trust violation and I would like to have apt action taken against such lackadaisical approach to a job seeker.

They didn't return mu mediator and security money as I had not pay so called gst fee of 4320/-. I was unable to pay this amount so decided to leave it and yes I had completed their 24 pages project also. They refused to refund me the amount.
