CommunityMatrimony.com claims to be the only portal in the history of online matrimony to provide matrimony services solely based on community. Apparently it has 350+ dedicated portals for various communities. Actually they are nothing but a fraud machine. Once you create an account on any of their sites(agarwalmatrimony, baniyamatrimony, etc), you start getting regular calls from their agents promising access to multiple community sites, increased number of contacts you can make, increased number of days for which the membership would be valid, etc. The process continues until you concede and finally pay for membership.
In my case, soon after I created an account on Agarwal Matrimony sometime in December, Mr. Sandeep Jaiswal of their Mumbai office and some other agents started contacting me. 6 months of such calls and many promises(from their side) later, I finally agreed to take membership in June. A few days later their local contact person arrived at my home to collect the check, wherein he again confirmed all the benefits that we would be getting. Other details follow:
Membership opted for: Gold Membership
Date on which membership taken: 12/06/14
Money paid: Rs. 2500
Promised
• Access to Agarwal matrimony and Baniya matrimony
• Ability to see 65 people for 100 days on both the sites
• Authentic profiles and working numbers
Given
• Access only to Agarwal matrimony
• Ability to see 50 people for 88 days
• Most of the numbers that I called turned out to be fake/out of service
We contacted the local office at Shop no. 102, Ground Floor, Victoria II, Fortaleza, Kalyani Nagar, Pune-06, but all we got was empty assurances about fixing things. Till date I have not got paid member’s access to baniyamatrimony and other things they promised.
Beware of these fraudsters!
Do not opt for paid membership option of any of the sites under community matrimony group. Before payment they agree to all the customers’ terms and conditions but once they get their money half of the promises are not delivered. Needless to say customer care executive/agents go back on their words saying that nothing can be done.
