Reviews and Complaints

I was receiving continuous emails from Shine.com for relevant job opportunities, but upon clicking, they required me to pay a subscription fee. After making the payment, I noticed that the emails were fake. When I contacted their support, they said I needed to buy an application highlighter. I purchased this as well, but it did not work. When I called them again, they said I had to verify my experience and insisted I pay for a background verification package. I paid for this too, but later realized I was falling into Shine.com's fraud trap. When I asked them why I wasn't getting any results, they blocked my contact and emails.

Hlo name is Anil Kumar and my complain against to Kajal and Vikram both are fake commented to me and receive 49k and wants to more payment while she saying to me 3k final but after 49k payment wants to more payment by me please deactivate my all services and send back my money her mobile number is [protected]. Please action against her and Vikram send back my money

Dear Munesh,

Repeatatively I told you that your team has informed in bits and pieces. He has not given the clarity totality before beginning of the project.

Hope your team should well aware about the budgetary offer in totality before initiation of any activity. But I do not think they are well trained.

You team is doing the process how to victimize the customer and fulfil there goals but this is very unethical.

On what basis you say the service has activated? Customer has not satisficed and

not given the any green signal for initiation of this service

So please do the necessary action at your end inline with the customer voice and I hope you will maintain the Customer centric approach.

Dear Sir,

I am not satisfied the services what your team has given to me and guided in wrong path in service charges.

They have guided me always in wrong direction in dark situation in financial part.

I am not satisfied that type of services and guided in wrong direction towards the financial part.

So I do not want such services and I requesting to shine team to return back my total amount as per attached invoice.

Wrong Direction -- First of all your team has not given the total clarity regarding the payment part.

Always showing bits and pieces and not given the clarity in totality.

After completion of one step they are showing the next step and charges taken and explain me that with out this the service will not effective and not fruitful.. But I have no budget and unhappy on such type of indiscipline to divert the customer in a dark situation.

Hi ZAIRUS,

I hope my massage finds you and family in best of health. I'm writing this note to you with pain and disappointment that I went through while interfacing with your team.

I will start from the beginning, April 2017 I received a link from your association NIDHI GUPTA about shine.com and vacancy details in Australia.
After few minutes I get a call from your association pushing for a paid subscription and he promising a lot of things. She sound as genuine as one can be, and she pushing the word everytime that "Shine.com under hindustan times. It's a india no 1 job portal. you just pay the amount definitely you will get a job within one month."
I took the subscription after a lot of follow up by her and I thought that it was a right decision for my career. I paid registration fees then she told that now my relationship manager will contact with me who will help me in finding better opportunity. I was happy that time.
A relationship manager (Abhishek) called and after a few vague question he pitched another two product and coverced me to pay another payment. He telling me that without it he will not be able to help me. Again he used same word
"Shine.com under hindustan times. It's a india no 1 job portal. you just pay the amount definitely you will get a job within one month. I'm working last 10 years for Australia with shine.com, your profile so strong you will get a job definitely."
Then I pay almost around RS. 66000/- within 15 min. when I didn't get any job and any interview call from anymore then I call shine.com again and again but they didn't response my call.
After long time I register a complain in October 2017 at consumercomplaints.in and I complain also in consumerhelpline.gov.in (GRIEVANCE NO-738791 AND 645338) and I send again and again mail to shine.com and send hard copy of complain and my invoice via speed post but same as I didn't get any reply.
I wait more then 2 years for my job and as a jobless. That time I worked with cruise line because of this job I leave my cruise job.
Good thing is that I recorded call thats come to me and should you need to hear it yourself. I can send it across. I'm of the notion that many times the leadership is unknown of the tactics ground teams play hence I write to you in good faith hoping that you will help me out from here with the refunds. As I no more have confidence on shine.com and probably will do better of my own in job search. I have not availed a single paid service hence it should not be difficult.

I'm sure that you will help me.

Regards
Samir Bera

SHINE.COM is the No. 1 Fraud They have totally cheated me out with their false promises.

I would suggest not to opt out their services.

The executives are ill mannered and if you ask for explanation of the expenses you get to see that they are 100% rude and the behavior is not at all professional.

Just after making payment as they explained that the service is just a learning course that too without any job guarantee I asked for a refund since i did not want their service. They kept on repeating that it was at your consent you made payments and we can not return back.

HOWEVER, i recollect making payment since they assured of job interviews and a number of opportunities.

Its already past 30days and not a single interview call came in.

I do understand now that i have been looted.

I was contacted by one Mr. Danish Khan ([protected]@rediffmail.com & mobile: +91-[protected]) having recruiter ID - ( freelancerpradeepkum3_1 is registered with Shine.com as a recruiter from Freelancer Pradeep Kumar ([protected]@rediffmail.com) ), regarding a job opportunity for Hitachi Consulting through SHine.com job portal. Unknowingly I replied to the email and was contacted for telephonic interview and was asked to get a Profile Verification Certificate from any of the verifying agencies.
However, I did a silly mistake of not checking with any agency and asked the same consultant to get it for me as the verification fee from well known agency was same.

I paid Rs. 4000/- to the below account in a hurry.

A/C Holder name- Kuldeep
A/C No- [protected]
A/C type- Saving
IFSC code- BARB0MILAKX
Bank name- Bank of Baroda
Branch: BANK OF BARODA, MILAK BR., DIST. RAMPUR, U.P.

But, on receiving the certificate I found it to be a fake and no such verification activity was undertaken by any agency.

The consultant setup 2 fake interview calls through phone and on the other side a person with Orinetal accent (i.e. Japenese, SE ASian, Chienes) spoke to me 2 times.
Later, the consultant sent me an offer to proceed through a fake email ID: [protected]@hitachicorporation.in, asking to send my digital signatures, documents and payment of Rs. 16, 500/-

This is when I thoroughly checked the authenticity and realized that I have been duped of Rs. 4000/- and those scammers were trying to dupe me more.

I tried to contact and ask for physical address to send the money and documents in hard and got another address as below:
EP Block, sector V, Bidhan Nagar, Kolkata, West Bengal 700091

I am anticipating a racket or a gang in multiple cities of India who are doing it in an organized way.

Hello,
I had submited my CV on shine.com and few other sites in search for a job. After a few days I received an anonymous call from a number which didn't seem to be a normal mobile number. The number was –
+[protected].
When I was just about to pick up it got disconnected. Then I tried tracing that number with online India trace, now the number doesn't exist. After sometime I again got a call from the same number. This time a person talked and said congratulations your CV has been shortlisted by shine.com and we provide placement at Jindal construction and Hindustan construction at [protected] pay/month but you are required to submit 2000/- Rs FEE for submitting documents for online test and evaluation. He asked me if I had a bank account in Canara bank. I started doubting this as soon as he mentioned money. I asked him where
is this company where I will be placed, he said Ahmedabad. I am from Ahmedabad and I knew that there is no such company here, I even looked up on the internet found no such company. I knew he was lying so I said "Right now I am busy so I can't register with you so call me later." He wasn't able to fraud me, but when I looked up on the Internet about shine.com scam I saw hundreds of complaints.
Either that company is a fraud or the person who called me are running a fraud using company's name. In both cases, please stop this from happening. I can even say that they are using some fake numbers so that they don't get caught. There are many victims of shine.comThe number that called me was- +[protected]. Please track it if you can or try another method of tracking them down(Upload a CV on shine.com or Naukri.com and you might also get this fraud call).
Ok I tracked this number on another website and found out that they are operating from Gaziabad, Uttarpradesh, India. Please do something before they fraud more people!
