Cheats of the 1st order
Makemytrip

Mr. Durgesh of Ahmedabad, faced the same problems. His money has been refunded, but in my case no action is being taken. I think they have taken it for granted that once they have recieved the money, they are not liable for anything. This is the thinking of scamsters and not of any real service prov...iders. THEY HAVE CHEATED ME, AND ARE STILL CHEATING OTHERS. GOD HELP THOSE STILL DEALING WITH THEM.Read More

I have not been refunded or even been contacted by these scamsters (Shiftthought/Makemytrip.com/Indiatimes.com) even after I have given all the details here and in other forums. In fact I have also written to their Management level persons (Mr. Sanjay Sahay at Indiatimes) many tmes to no avail. ... This Email id was given to me by Mr. Durgesh of Ahmedabad, another victim of this phone scam. He was lucky enough to be refunded the amount after his persistent follow up with these persons and sites. He has contacted me after reading, about my woes, on these forums. Also 2 other persons similarly affected (from Delhi and Chennai I think) have contacted me on how to go about recovering their money from these scamsters who make false promises, and then disappear. I have given them whatever assistance I could, except that it is not a lot, as even I am still trying to recover my money. I have a feeling that these complaint forums like yours or others really have no effect on these scamsters, who operate with impunity. HOW I WILL BE ABLE TO RECOVER MY MONEY stolen by this scam, is still a mystery to me. Another thing I would like to point out is that my telephone nos. are on the NDNC (National Do Not Call) registry for years. How do I activate the provisions of this (if any) so action can be taken against my service provider VODAFONE also so that such calls are not permitted, or they also take action against such scamsters? If no action is taken by the Govt. or others with the powers, these scams by large sell known companies will continue against hapless consumers.Read More

No Response whatsoever from the team of Indiatimes/Makemytrip/Shiftthoughts till now. They have treated this as closed, I am now trying to pursue them for a full refund, but to no avail. No communication from them. They have taken the money and run. I am receiving calls from other persons al...so, who have been similarly cheated. In fact some have not even received the kit and still been charged. This is amazingly BAD from these players. I NOW REQUEST A FULL REFUND, (Please take back all the material that you have sent me, and not fulfilled your promise). HOPE this is urgently taken care of. Thanks sandeepRead More

The original orange

Fanta!! When I was a kid I used to love Fanta (Pepsi/Mirinda were not available). The current Fanta orange from the Coke stable revives the fond childhood memories. My old B'day movies and pics show Fanta and Coke with a prominence. It still has the best taste of all the orange drinks avai...Read more

Thumbs down for Accent GLS

Another example of glitz taking the consumer for a ride. The car is too overrated. In the UK a much higher configured Accent with a 5 yr warranty sells for about rs. 5,00,000. The insurance profile is below average. And they are selling a similar car to us Indians. They know we go for hype. It's...Read more
