Address: 1089 poonamallee high road, A701, sankeshwar serenity, dina thanthi, vepery, chennai 600084, 600084

Payment reference no. 20190722111212800110168921279504760


Dear sir / madam

With reference to the above mentioned payment reference number for rs 599/-, which was paid on 22 july 2019 through paytm towards annual subscription for toi newspaper.
I am really sorry to say that till date, i have not received any customer copy and vendor coupon, despite of several followups over the phone to your office phone number[protected], out of which, one of the complaint reference no 00117303 was logged on 7 sept 2019, but in vain.

When i have asked them the reason behind delaying sending the coupon to us, then i was told by them that the coupon is under printing for the past two months. I was shocked to hear that the company who is printing lakhs of newspaper is himself facing trouble in printing related issue, that too for two months for a single job issue. This has become a joke of the year. Ha ha ha.

The vendor who is supplying newspaper to us have stoped supplying newspaper to us, stating that he will not supply unless they get vendor copy from us.

Kindly look into the matter and do the needful by sending the vendor coupon at the earliest.

Thanking you,

Regards

Kalpesh jain

        This is regarding times if india, times mega plus offer. It was a special subscription price of 895 rs for the period of 15 month. I made a cheque in favour of benette, coleman & co. Ltd. On 14/06/19. This got cleared on 16/07/19. After this never got coupons.. I am calling the representative manish yadav @ ‭+[protected]‬ and sanjay @ [protected] almost everyday since july but they never take my call. This is harassment and cheating. Times of india, this is really unprofessional and it seems these representatives are making people fool using your name.

            I paid annual subsciption for toi in feb 2019. Suddenly they stopped delivering paper for the past 15 days. No response to phone calls. Your offices also avoid helping resolving the issues. They say they are not connected with delivery issues. Who will resolve such issues? If you cannot, pl refund the balance. We will go for another paper. No one can wait for weeks and weeks.

                Respected sir,
                I would like to share my nasty and
                Nightmare experience with the india's greatest newspaper times of india...
                I had ordered a high end phone samsung galaxy s7 edge for ₹39, 996/- from flipcart on 7th september 2019 and delivery was made on 11sept.2019... To my horror i received a old and dead phone.
                Sent an email to flipcart within an hour on receiving the phone..
                There was no response from flipcart towards that mail.
                Contacted the customer care they responded we require a consent from your end by email.
                For filling fir against the seller.
                I tried sending mail but it was not teaching them and to my horror found that my registered email id has been tampered and the customer people asking me to send the consent for fir.
                So i thought of changing my registered email of flipcart but found out that new email couldnt be registered it has been blocked..
                So i sent a registered letter to flipcart giving my consent for fir...
                On going through my online order found that there are two sellers for my product... First seller is electronis bazaar 1 and the second seller is shilpi enterprises. From bareilly (Up)..
                Ekart logistics... Shows the phone has been shipped from bengaluru.. On the 7th september, the wrapper in which the phone was shipped had a detergent soap wrapper from up...
                More details i would like to reveal where flipcart inside are involved in this high end
                Cellphone racket...
                I would like to meet any of your reporters to reveal the modus operandi of the phone racket where flipcart officials are involved..
                Thanking you

                  Dear Customer Care/Mumbai,

                  It's been fairly long time that the TOI subscription coupons have not reached me.

                  Pls. do the needful at the earliest.

                  The bed sheet - bed cover gift has reached me as per the attachment of the envelop containing the bed sheet/bed cover gift.

                  The subscription coupons also be sent to the same address [ H. Roy, Prestige Residency, Gardenia, Flat No. B-202, Ghodbunder Road, G.B.Rd. Near Waghbil Naka, Beside Dalal Engineering, Thane(West)-400 615 ; Phone[protected] ].

                  In case you fail to send the coupons by courier, then kindly send the e-coupons.

                  Kindly send me e-coupons per return mail ASAP.

                  Thanks,

                          Dear sir, content removal section

                          I have been noticing a false news linked to your site by some one. This news was published falsely in times of india in 2007. in fact later it was proved by the committee that this was a handy work and conspiracy by some of my colleagues and matter was solved.

                          But as this news link is still appearing on google search in my name, i feel insulted and humiliated by your site.

                              Nominated agency is not delivering newspaper properly. No newspaper is received in september 2019 except on 10th, 12th & 13th. I have made complaint in this regard through helpline no. [protected] and requested to change the agency to gurusamy agency, madurai. But no remedial action is not being taken. Poor service. Unbearable delay in resolving the issues.

Previously, he was asking for more money as delivery charges as well which i denied to pay. It’s very frustrating and such things are not expected from a brand like “times of india”at least. Very disappointed with the service of toi.
