Reviews and Complaints

Dear Sir,

My Subscription Number is - [protected] with starting date 10.01.2022.

Though I have received two separate sms (messages) that my magazine is being delivered, yet I have not received even a single copy of 'India Today' magazine till date.

I suspect some foul play. Kindly look into the matter urgently and see to it that I receive my copies regularly.

Yours sincerely,

Rajesh Singh

Hi All,

I subscribed the annual package of digital magazine - business today on 03/09/2021, and still havnt got the magazine.

I paid Rs 2600 and my order id is BT-[protected] .

it been 3 months waiting and havnt got even a single Magazine.

I am getting mails that they will settle the prize amount that Bag it today offered when I did the online purchases. they lured me to do online purchases and this happened few years back.
Now I am getting emails from this id: [protected]@indiatodaygroup.co.in saying that they will settle prize amount and requesting for my personal details.
Is this valid group and can I believe this email?

I had subscribed to indiatoday magazene for one year by paying rs2340/- through internet banking on 09/06/2017.A free gift of reid&taylor belt and wallet was also offered with one year subscription which was ticked at the time of subscription order.The first issue of subscription was delivered on 17/07/17 with subscription no.Ite324140.When i enquired about the free gift on 28/08/17, i was told by the customer care executive that there is no free gift available for my subscription.It is quite unethical that i was denied the free gift which was offered at the time of subscription.Hence i i request that the complaint may please be brought to the notce of concerned authority.

I have made a payment of Rs.711/- to the Publishers in the month of April 2016 as one year subscription for Readers Digest. I was not getting the
magazine against my subscription. Whenever I make a complaint
they blame the postal department for non-delivery and they are taking
up the issue with them strongly and have been assuring me the prompt
delivery of the magazine. However, this was not happening. All I received from the publishers after making umpteen number of complaint was the 3 old issues of the magazine together in the month of July, 2016. Since they were unable to delivery me magazine regularly every month, I requested them to cancel my subscription and refund the subscription amount. After sending dozens of reminders they send me a cheque
of Rs.237/- in the month of December, 2016. Since then I have been
asking them to give me account of Rs.474/- deducted from my subscription amount, as all I received was 3 old issues of the magazine.

Since December 2016 I have been reminding them to send me the account
of Rs.474/- deducted by them. I have sent six reminders so far
and every time I get the reply "we will get back to you in 2 to 3 working days" However, nothing has happened and I am still waiting for their
reply as to how they have deducted Rs.474/- from my account.

I placed an order for a product on www.bagittoday.com on 24th August

2013. Within 5 minutes of placing the order I got a call from a certain

Amit verma from Bag It Today and told me that i had been entered into

an exclusive contest for winning a car from Bag It Today for which I

would have to buy lifetime membership from Bag It Today for Rs 1350

which would enable me to get extra discount of 30-50 percent on every

product on bag It Today in addition to the discount already available

on the product. After i expressed scepticism about the order i was told

that India Today is a reputed business group and we are doing this for

our sales promotion as we want you to do word of mouth publicity for

the company after getting this outrageously generous offer from us. I

expressed my interest in this offer and Mr. Varma promptly transferred

the call to the Payment Department of the company where I was asked to

provide details of my Credit card, (a practice which I may point out is

highly suspect and completely inappropriate). They asked for my 3D

secure Password which I declined after which they asked me to provide

them my OTP (ONE TIME PASSWORD) after providing them with the same I

was shocked to find out that they had gone behind my back and changed

my 3D secure password to charge me an amount of 13, 499 (THIRTEEN

THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED). Obviously I was shocked to find such a brazen

display of thievery and misuse of personal data. After this i got a

call from their verification Department for verifying my adress who

told me that i had purchased some diamonds for Rs 13500. I told them

about the lifetime membership order which they declined to have no

knowledge of and transferred the call back to the sales guy Amit Verma

who told me that the confirmation department doesnt know about the

membership offer and told me to "just say Yes" to the confirmation

department. After this when i got a call back from the confirmation

department I told them to immediately cancel the order and refund the

amount to my credit card. I also sent a mail to

[protected]@bagittoday.com and [protected]@bagittoday.com However in

both the cases my pleas were ignored and I was repeatedly transferred

from department to department in order to bamboozle and confuse me. I

repeatedly called the customer care number everyday who told me that

order cannot be cancelled and dropped the call. After a few days they

told me the order has been shipped(which i never ordered) and when i

asked them about refund they told me their company does not provide any

refund. You may note that i got a call from fedex courier few days back

who told me that that there was a package in my name with only the city

name and mobile no mentioned. I declined to accept the package and

asked the courier company to sent it back to its origin as I had not

ordered it. After narrating this brazen incident of thievery to my

friends and colleagues, one of my colleagues asked me to drop a mail to

salil.[protected]@bagittoday.com as he had been duped by the company in a

similar fashion on a previous occasion. I promptly sent a mail on the

stated mail ID on 2nd September after which i got a response from a

certain Farah Qureshi on 3rd September ([protected]@bagittoday.com)

mentioning the following lines ("This is to inform you that we have

forwarded your concern to the concern person and requesting you to

please allow us some time to get back to you.") After this i sent them

2-3 reminders on subsequent days to which they sent the same response.

It has been 4 days and i have not heard anything concrete from them so

far. I have realized that they are just buying time and are in cahoots

with these sales guys recruited by them for looting innocent customers.

The order ID (for this act of theft) was communicated to me as

[protected].

I am subscriber of Scientific American India Sub No. SAI1539565 for three years from Dec 2009 till nov 2012 . In January 2011 Living Media group stopped publication of SCI AM India and informed that refund of Rs 1210 will be done in three weeks time that is by 31-Jan 2011. It has been more than SIX MONTHS ONE NOW. Despite innumerable telephonic/mail follow ups, i have not received my refund i.e. Rs 1210/- .

I shall be highly grateful if i get my money (Rs.1210/-) at the very earliest.

Your kind cooperation will be highly appreciated and I shall always remain obliged.

Thanking you in anticipation,

Yours Truly,

On 13-09-2010 I got a call from India Today Book Club, the caller name is Mr Sarat. He told me that I got selected for Rs1 lakh diamond Diwali Bonanza Offer. In this offer I can purchase up to 1 lakh of Diamond jewellery from Surat Diamond. I will get 20 number vouchers of Rs5000 each. For that i have to pay Rs 14996 and Rs299 handling charges and they will give me a 22 items (Swatch Watch-2 Nos, MTV Roadies Sunglasses- 2 Nos, Reebok wallet+key chain - 2 Nos, Books of three title – 2 nos each, MTV T-Shirt- 2 Nos, Reebook Track Suit- 2 Nos, Reebok Shorts- 2 Nos, Reebok LITE Speed Shoes - 2 Nos, Reebok VB Thong Slipper- 2 Nos), two holiday voucher free. I have made the payment after a through inquiry to their correspondence. Their correspondence Mr Sarat and his senior clearly told me that I can club those 20 vouchers and can made a single purchased of upto 1 lakh from Surat Diamond.
I have received the material, though some material are not of my size given to them, Now when the time of vouchers is came they are now telling me that I cannot clubbed the vouchers and the person make me another offer of giving me physical diamond for that i have to again pay Rs15000 or so
I think it is a clear case of cheating and misleading the public.

I am regularly doing shopping from India Today Book Club (I.T.B.C.) & Living
Media India Ltd. from last 2 years.

I have received call from your executive Rohit Sharma from [protected] on
17/9/10 at 4.30 p.m. stating that you have won Cash Gold box of
Rs.3, 30, 000/- (Rupees Three Lac Thirty Thousand Only) from India Today Book
Club on the basis of previous purchases made by you from I.T.B.C. and to
avail this Gold Box you have to make payment of Rs.15, 998/- and Rs.14, 996/-
immediately towards Tax and processing charges and I made payment from my
HDFC credit card. After making payment Rohit told me that right now it is
5.00 P.M. and all the bank will be closed so we will courier the cheque to
you on your address. I asked for the cheque details and he has provided
cheque no.270586 of IDBI Bank Ltd. ad assured me that you will receive a
cheque within 3 to 4 working days. but, till today have not received
anything from yourside.

On 28/9/10 I received call from New Delhi office from Mr.Husain asking me
about the Gold Box cash price and I have provided him all the details of the
payment made on 17/9/10, and he told me that transaction which made earlier
is mistake form ourside now we will refund your both the amount but you have
to make payment of Rs.14, 998/- + 14, 998/- and immediately I made the payment
again from my HDFC card. He has taken my Bank account details like A/c no.,
name of the Bank branch etc. and assured me that you will get your Cash Gift
of Rs.3, 30, 000/- (Rupees Three Lac Thirty Thousand Only) and Refund of
Rs.15, 998/- and Rs.14, 996/- within 3 working days he has also provided me
his employee no. SH8002 and complaint no. RS07529830 and his contact
no.011-[protected].

Now, almost 10 days has passed neither I have received any Refund of my
Credit card payment nor the Cash Gold box amount. I have lost my complete
faith from I.T.B.C.

Kindly look into the matter at the earliest as I don't want to put any bad
remarks on I.T.B.C.

I am a very old customer of India Today Book Club (ITBC) and have purchased
articles worth many lakhs from ITBC with aprreciation and satisfaction. I was awarded Gold Box worth *Rs 15 lacs* and received *300 Diamond Vouchers* of Rs 5, 000/- each vide e-mail on 8/9/2010 at [protected]@hotmail.com. I had made further request for clubbing of theseVouchers and for paper form of vouchers, and four more payments of 29, 992/- each and some more amounts were made in this connection, totalling more than Rs 100, 000/- just for clubbing and paper format of vouchers.
Finally I was informed when I was at Vaishnodevi near Jammu a week ago that my file has been processed and cleared for clubbing and that the vouchers in paper form would be sent by DTDC courier. However, while I was at Jammu, 5 days ago, I received another telephone call asking me to be on-line for receiving vouchers. I told that I belong to Jodhpur and I will have access to my e-mail on line only after 3 days.

Two days ago I recived a phone call on my telephone No. [protected] saying that now they are sending me the Vouchers and the code through E-mail on my Hotmail Account. Within 24 hours of this phone call as I was just waiting to get this coveted e-mail from your office, I got my hotmail account hacked and access to it was totally denied. My E-mail pass word and security secret questions were also tempered and so I cannot open my e-mail account in the hotmail.

While I am taking appropriate action with customer support of Hotmail for reviving my e-mail account, I am submitting summary of my complaint as below :-

The complaint is regarding:
1. Why the Diamond Vouchers were not sent in paper format by courier despite payment by additional purchases for that purpose?
2. Why the clubbing mail was not received by me at my gmail address, though both hotmail and gmail ID's were in record?
3. Why even after my request, urgent remedial action was not taken to prevent misuse and fraud?
4. Why is it that my e-mail account on hotmail, which was known to the staff of India Today Book Club (ITBC) and also that ONLY ITBC staff knew about the e-mail being sent giving CODE numbers regarding Gold Box / Diamond Jewellery worth 1, 500, 000/- for me, was hacked by someone just hours within the phone call by a staff member from ITBC to my phone No. [protected] intimating e-mail being sent?
5. What is the remedial action now and how can I redeem my Rs. 1.5 million worth of Gold Box / Diamond Jewellery Vouchers?

Sir, Madam,

During December 2009 I foolishly ordered "Complete history of world" through readers digest(ITBC). A cheque was attached and the same was en cashed on 6/1/2010. When I did not get the book by Feb 2010 I tried calling Readers digest and my ordeal started. I live in Chennai and I was told that I have to call 011 [protected]. In spite of this customer complaint number being an STD, not toll free number, Perhaps to avoid customer calling, I called up several times and was told the book had returned back due to address problems. Mind you, I am living in the same address for the past 12 years and still get all "Readers digest" magazine regularly.
I was told with in 20 Days the book will be re sent to me. I patiently waited for the same and called up in march, I was then told that the book is out of inventory and they are waiting for the same to come, I called up again in April and same reply, Agin in may 2010 same reply. I took this very hard and told them to cancel the order and return the money. After that every 20 days I am calling them and they are still, we are in September 2010, given the money back. In august I got a call from one Ravi, who gave me a "waybill number" of blue dart which turned out to be wrong. Today I spoke to the call center and one Mr. Rashid, who was very harsh, says it is the problem of "Blue Dart". I have never seen such utter disregard for customers.

I sincerely believe that ITBC is cheating money and forcing customers to go through horrid time with their call center to dissuade them from asking re imbursement

I was allured on my mob.no.[protected] on 06-08-2010, for free Gold Offer 0f Rs1.60 lac on purchaging different items. ID for the same was given as-[protected] . LCD TV +sunglass for Rs17699/-, Camcorder+home theatre + Dvd player for Rs15998/-.To save Tax have to pay more . Against ID no.[protected] have paid Rs27997/- and against ID no.[protected] have paid Rs13498/-for a set of home appliances. All these payments were made through my Crdit Cards.
Except free gift offer of gold and against payment of R13498/- rest of the items have been recieved. I could not get in touch again.No tel.no. is conversational or reciprocal.Since I hava already paid the amount, therefore it is essential to procure the free gift as well as items are due.
There are five unique n0s. to claim special offers against membership numbers:
1. MEM.NO. ITBC [protected]------174368625A100023576
2. MEM.NO..ITBC [protected] ------159387525A100024044
3. MEM.NO. ITBC [protected]-------159387525A100023585

5. MEM.NO.ITBC [protected]-------159387525A100023511
I therefore, request to expedite the same.

I had placed an order for Swatch Watch costing Rs 3199.00. The said order was placed on 4 April 2009 (may be before 2 and half month). Even after continuance reminders and follow-up with the Company, I have not yet received Swatch Watch till date. Therefore, on 21 May 2009, I have requested for cancellation of order and refund of amount at the earliest. I have continuously requested for cancellation of order vide my mail dated 22 May 2009, 25 May 2009, 16 June 2009 and 16 June 2009.

For every mail, the seller is repeating the same response that "In this regard we would like to inform you that we have already forwarded your complaint to our concerned department. Kindly wait for some more time."

They are not refunding my amount or taking any steps to do so..

Somebody Has Fraudulently used my credit card ending with last
four digits 9397 and made payment to your company(Living Media

Hi!

I like to inform you all that India Today Book Club is a BIG BIG SCAM Company and now they are with Contest SCAM!

They are running more that Rs.10Lacs Contest and for the same they and their sales peosons call you and tell you that you are guranteed winner of Rs.10, 000 or Rs.30, 000 or Rs.2Lac + price! And to confirm and get your price you required to purchase a product from them.

They call you many time + after purchase the next day other person from their sales team again call you and give you more (higher) amount of winning confirmation and again tell you to purchase new product!

They tell that you get your winning price on 31st Mar.2017 by Check OR DD.

I also received this type of phone call. First their sales team member Mr.Asim tell me that I am in Top 10 Winner List and I guranteed get Rs.10, 000 Price if I place order. After 2-3 times his confirmation I place a Order for Samsung Omni Pro B730 Mobile. He confirm me that I get winning price confirmation within 15-20min of my purchase payment. I paid using ICICI Bank Credit Card.

But I not get any winning price confirmation on same day!

Again their sales team member Miss.Lila call me on next day and tell me that I am now selected for Rs.30, 000 guranteed price! And now I am Top 5 list. She also confirm me that I get this change because One day back I placed a order for mobile. I tell her that I required winning confirmation details and she give me assurance that I definatly get winning details within 20min of my new order payment. So, again I place a new order for Philips Home Theatre system.

But I not get any email in 12-24hrs! And again on next day their team member call me that I am now winner of Rs.2Lac+ price! So, first I tell him to confirm my Rs.30, 000 price by email. But he said that they have no user rights to send email! Also he tell me that their all phone calls are recorded by IndiaTodayBookClub for security purpost and I guranteed get Rs.2 Lacs price. But I not place new order and send email to their all team members on "[protected]@indiatodaybookclub.com;[protected]@indiatodaybookclub.com;[protected]@indiatodaybookclub.com;ashish.[protected]@intoday.com;[protected]@intoday.com;[protected]@intoday.com;Kiranjyot.[protected]@intoday.com;malcolm.[protected]@intoday.com;mohan.[protected]@intoday.com;Neeti.[protected]@intoday.com;Nidhi.[protected]@intoday.com;payal.[protected]@intoday.com;photo.[protected]@intoday.com;prabhdev.[protected]@intoday.com;pragya.[protected]@intoday.com;[protected]@intoday.com;[protected]@intoday.com;sunil.[protected]@intoday.com;Tb.[protected]@intoday.com" with all details.

I get reply from Mr.Piyush that "With reference to your mail we would like to inform you that your both orders [protected] & [protected] is under process from our end we request you that kindly wait for some days you will receive the same soon." BUT NO Winning Price details !

So, Again I send email and tell them to confirm my winning price. Because I only place this both order get winning money.

I get reply after 2 days from Sonia that "We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you. With reference to your mail, we would like to inform you that we are not providing any cash prize along with the order." !

So, I send email and tell them that I also recorded all this three phone calls and I have recording of this all 3 phone calls. If I not get confirmation within next 48hrs than I am going to file a consumar case against their company.

After thsi step they start calling me on my cell and tell me that its not possible to confirm winning amount by email! But I get Rs.10, 000 guranteed price! So, I tell them that I req. Rs.30, 000 and also required price confirmation by email.

After thsi their team head call me and tell me that they are sorry for all this and they are going to take step against their sales team member. But this is not true that I get price! Its a compition and I just get entry by placing order!

Means this all is a BIG cheating!

So, I tell them that I am not at-all intrested in product. And I want refund.

Still they send me a Phillips home theater ! But I not accepted it and return it.

They still not refunded my amount to credit card. But my credit card provider "ICICI Bank" team confirm me that if I not get refund that they process my charge back.

It's my luck that I paid using Credit Card PLUS I recorded their phone call! Otherwise nothing !

It's better to purchase from local shop insted of this types of cheating sites. They are running BagItToday site with same types of offers. But if you search google you get many scam case against them!

This both site are from IndiaToday Group of people but both are BIG Fraud site. I don't understand why this type of Big Group done this Fraud with Indian People!

Their sales team members are very smart. On selling time they offer you many offers or contest winning or prices with your purchase. But after purchase NO ONE ans you! Even their support team reply and tell you that their own sales team member given you wrong details! This is only if you send them many emails OR call them many times. Otherwise nothing!

You loose your money + valuable time + Did not get product or get wrong product + Not get gift or price as per their offer!

So, be careful and DO NOT PLACE any order...

This complaint is regarding a serious fraud that sales agent of India today are doing these days.One guy called me and told me that I have done shopping before also from their company so I am eligible for a draw in which If I buy a product I will get a miniumum guaranted prize of RS5000 and max of Rs one lac.So I bought a swatch watch .After few days a guy named Abhijeet called me again and told that I have won RS60000 which will be transfered to my account in few days or I can get a draft but if I continue to play this game and buy one more product of min rs 15000 I will be elligible for next round where only few persons has gone and it has a guaranted prize of Rs 100000 so I bought a HTC phone and he gave me a claiming ID to claim the prize.But now when I had called there customer care they told that it is not true.These guys have cheated me and maybe many other people aswell.I also want to cancel both the products and my money to be refunded.
My membership ID is ITBC10318612.I only bought these products because they were provided by a reputed group of Times of India but they are cheating public.Seeing the number of complaint against them they have become the biggest fraud company in India.
