Complaint by: sandeepgarg on February 16, 2011, 9:44 pm in Online Shopping

I had purchased a voucher for Rs.1000/- (Total value of Rs.2,500/- on purchase of Rs.3,500/- or more), from one of the deal sites. The voucher was valid till 15/02/2011.

Now, yesterday, i.e. on 15/02/2011, at about 21:00 hrs, I tried to use this voucher on their site.

1st I checked my account, after logging in. The voucher for Rs.2,500/- was showing.

Then I put the things I wanted in the basket (Total value about Rs.4,600/- or so), and proceeded to checkout.

It did not allow me to go to the confirmation page, saying that they do not deliver to the pincode(??) (Ajmer). This, after they have already delivered goods many times to me!! I, changed the pincode to another one of AJMER.

Now I was able to go to the confirmation page. Till now it did not show me any place where I could adjust or apply the Rs.2,500/- voucher. On the payment / confirmation page also it showed no such facility.

Now, I went right upto the credit card payment page, but did not pay, as there was no credit of Rs.2,500/- being given.

They generated an e-mail, due to the failed order, as follows (Read from bottom up, begining from the handbag):

Dear Sandeep,
We truly understand your concern.
However, you are requested to understand us as we follow our guidelines and as per our guidelines we can not extend the validity of the vouchers; and we really feel sorry for this as you tried to use your voucher just on the last date of its validity while we gave you three months to use this.
Thank you.

Sir,


U have to see that at 21:00 hrs I tried to place the order for more than half an hour, but was unable to do so due to a glitch in your software. This can be verified by you from your own software.


1st it says that it can't ship to the particular pincode (Ajmer).


After putting in another pincode for the same city (Ajmer), it gives me the option to pay by credit/debit card etc.


On proceeding further it does not give me the option to utilise my voucher (even though the value of the items in the basket was over Rs.3,500/-. I purposely went to the payment page, so that this mail could be generated.


This has happened to me before also, on your site. At that time also they had reactivated that voucher. Request you to do the same again.


Thanks


sandeep

Dear Sandeep,
We understand your concern.
However, it is to inform you that vouchers can not be activated if once they are expired due to any reason.

I tried placing my order and utilising my credit.

1st it did not allow me to place order saying that you do not deliver to the pin code.

I changed pin codes, then it did not show the Rs.2,500 credit, so I did not pay by credit card.

Now the account shows no credits (as they were supposed to expire today).. No fault of mine, some problem at your server/software end. My order can be verified by checking my surfing on your site at about 21 hrs on 15th feb 2011.

Please help and revert.

Subsequently I tried to contact with Mr. Chandra, on the Tel No. given in the mail, but he did not have the courtsey to come on the phone and talk to me. His customer care persons, once a man and once a lady, kept on telling me that tghey will arrange a callback by 6 pm (Which has not coime till now)



They also kept telling me that a voucher that is to expire on 15/02/2011 expires at 00:00 hrs 15/02/2011 (at the start of the day), CRAZY!!!



I kept telling them that it was showing in my account till the time I tried to place the order, and also subsequently after the bad order / non payment, but I was unable to use it.



The response from Mr. Chandra (and also all the SOOO BUSY executives) of the portal was that "Why did I try to use it on the last day when they had given me sufficient time". Does That Matter??



Now they are not ready to give credit of the voucher of Rs.2,500/- under any circumstances. They say that this is their policy.



I think the VC Funding theyu have received recently has gone to their head. Hope this complaint reaches those who can do something about their customer care and management.

I support this complaint.

Does that matter? Their systems have to be working!! If any glitches, they should be resolved with a view of the customer.

Anyway, after these complaints, they have resolved the complaint and given back the voucher.

Hey Sandeep,
I am confused about why would you use the voucher on the last day to redeem it. Maybe that is what has caused you the problem.
