Subject: online fraud
Description: Dear Sir,
1) Ebay made me buy a sub standard product.(FLY mobile holder) from my ebay Id : tomcat8870015515 , having email ID : shesey.toms@gmail.com
2)Ebay or I never able to contact the buyer who sold the defective product through sms/ call / email as there is no address response and for courier there was no address exists with that name.
3)Even after the courier returned with "no address as office closed", ebay made me send the product through courier 2 times.(POD V05912770 & V05912580) against complaint no. 53387.
4) After all this, my claim is rejected saying i have not re-send the product within 72hrs from their mail( was already returned with "OFFICE CLOSED") although I hav sent it very next day and have send them the proof.also to be noted, their 72Hrs includes saturdays & sundays. I have chain of mails where ebay also have not responded for weeks.
5) For a Rs200 worth product ebay made me spend Rs.300 on courier saying thats your procedure, although i have sent you status of POD as "Office closed"
Seller is a cheat, but caused me only Rs.200, but ebay caused an additional Rs.300 loss that too on confimed failed deleivery.
kindly take apropriate acton to reterivemoney from these online frauds.

Dear Consumer,
ReplyDeleteWe observe:
- that you have not been able to enjoy the product/ service as desired.
- that you have been systematic in voicing your grievance with all those who should be concerned.
- that no one has duly cared to resolve your grievance expeditiously and in timely manner leaving you with a bad taste for the product/ service provider.
- that you have given ample opportunity to product/ service provider to resolve your grievance but to no use.
- that you have been made to waste a lot of your time running around and following-up.
- that you have been struggling to get your grievance addressed suitably and hence looking for advice.
We suggest the following actions that may help you to resolve your grievance ASAP.
- if you have lost all hopes of an amicable resolution with product/ service provider then stop accepting any requests to fix the issue from them and make it absolutely clear to them that you are no longer interested in their product/ service and want acceptable and commensurate compensation for the extent of damage caused including and accounting for all the pain that you had to go through in the process.
- the best way to deal in such matters is to provide 10days written notice to product/ service provider by a registered post describing in detail the entire dispute and making it absolutely clear to them that if an agreeable resolution is not reached within the said notice period of 10days then you will be forced to take punitive and enforcement action against them.
- you may also like to indicate what you are looking for in terms of compensation to settle the dispute amicably.
- specify in your notice itself one and more possible actions which you can and intend to take such as:
-- filing a complaint with consumer court to recover financial loss.
-- filing a complaint with regulatory authorities for appropriate action for the deficiency in product/ service.
-- filing a complaint with local authorities/ governing bodies to take note and appropriate action.
-- filing a complaint with local welfare associations such as Resident Welfare Associations (RWA) to take note of the matter and alert other consumers in the area.
-- filing a complaint with consumer welfare organizations for taking note and appropriate action.
-- registering a complaint with online consumer forums for taking note and appropriate action.
-- spreading the word on internet, social sites and by word-of-mouth to alert other consumers.
-- filing a Right to Information (RTI) application to expedite action on your grievance if applicable.
- mostly it is seen that the grievances are resolved expeditiously after such a notice is sent and the same can be expected in your case.
- however, if this doesn't work then you have no choice but to take legal action against them and for which you may contact us separately after you have firmly made-up your mind to the extent you are willing to go to take action against the product/ service provider in your pursuit of justice.
Good luck and best wishes...
