I subscribed to the Mail Today subscription offer which gave a free pair of Reebok shoes with a two yera subscription. I got the paper subscription and the voucher for the Reebok shoes.
Armed with the
voucher, I went to the Reebok stores and asked them for size 7. The standard answer is that size 7 is not available. The only sizes available are 5 and 10. This means that the average Indian male’s size is not available.
The Reebok store people were very nice and gave me their number to call. So I called and called but they never had the size. I have a life other than to call Reebok stores.
I then called Mail Today customer care. They said that this was not their responsibility. I said that if they are giving this as part fo their subscription then it is their responsibility. They took my number and said that they will call the next day. Two weeks later no call.
I then wrote to the India Today customer care email. I got a response from a lady asking for my number. I sent my number but then no response.

I think that both Mail Today and Reebok think that Indians are fools. So they can put in a false advertisement and make people run after them for a long time and then we will forget about it. They make their money, do not deliver shoes and we suffer in silence.

If there are others who have had the same experience then please let us group together and jointly take action against both Mail Today and Reebok.
