On 08th April,2010 I received a call from India Today Book Club(ph-+911203091700) regarding an anniversary that India Today was giving out by Mr. MANOJ.I was told that they would be giving HTC 3G Touch Phone along with Dell Laptop(I dont remember the model number) at Rs.19489.Also I was informed that if I go for two HTCphones I would be getting a Apple MC 226LL/A notebook.I was told that I would be receiving the order in 5 Working days after the order is placed.I enquired about the order type as such kind of offer would mean loss to the company India Today as Apple Laptop was of about Rs.1Lac.How could IndiaToday afford such kind of offer.In reply I was told that India Today had tied up with HTC and Apple Corporation to roll out such offers and as there was no marketing cost involved the company could easily afford it.I said that I had to look for the configuration of the phone as well as the laptop being provided for which I would require an hour.

After about half an hour I received a call again from them from the same number and enquired about the confirmation.By the time I had checked on the configuration of the products which where provided.I was once again told that such kind of order would come once in life span and I should go for it.I got tempted and ordered 2HTC touch phones so that I would get Apple notebook.Also India Today Book Club is from a reputed media house so I trusted them.I was informed that I needed to pay through credit card and two transactions of Rs.19489 would be deducted from it.I was also told that I should go for 3HTC phones as that will give me 52inch LCD Philips television.I controlled my temptation and ordered 2HTC touch phones for which transaction was done through ICICI Credit card.I was told that I had done a good shopping and as a compliment I would be getting two jewellery vouchers .

After ordering with your company I was eager to know the service that you provided.I was shocked to see that your company had been accused on all the costumer issue related site as fraud and that no one should go for their order.I was heart broken and called on the customer care on 1004/2010 to know the status. I was told that I had booked the order on 08/04/2010 the system does not show the details as such and I was given Complaint number-446306.

I again called on 12/02/2010 to know the status.I was told by Mr.Kuldeep that the anniversary offer contains HTC 3G touch phone along with Reebook sunglasses and some kind of holiday vouchers.He informed me that the order did not show any Apple Notebook to be given.I was again given a complaint number-448009.

I am in a state of shock and dismay.I am utterly unsatisfied and feel cheated by Living Media India ltd. held by Mr. Aroon Puri.I require an immediate reaction and proper action.

These people are nothing but bunch of frauds at they charge people at their whims and fancies at purchase of one product they give some free gifts without any taxes and for all other they charge incidental charges and taxes just to either evade giving free gifts or to delay the free gifts

where in aviation industry any one can get tickets at almost no fees in that cases these people are charging hefty amounts in name of taxes and miscellaneous charges
