Discrimination

AdvertisementIndia.com is a BAD agency for any service.

They said NO to me for none of my fault. They basically denied service to me. IT is plain discrimination, that is what they do. I just asked them to explain the extra money that they were hiding in their charges. I am attaching the chat transcript for more details. I am planning to file a case against them for discrimination against me. When I asked the reason for not providing service to me, they did not say anything, they disconnected the chat, they disconnected the phone also when i called up at their office in India. Others please be careful of this agency.

Advertisement India: extra line 325

70.243.253.149: that is what i am aksing, why this 1075 is different from what is posted on your website, whic is 930 for 3-line

Advertisement India: ye rates been changed from 1st sept

70.243.253.149: ok

Advertisement India: to chng on site been sent to the developer

70.243.253.149: what is the rate for 2 ads? and 4 ads?

Advertisement India: 1 1 (at 25% extra on the basic cost of first advt.)

Advertisement India: 1 3 (at 50% extra on the basic cost of first advt.)

70.243.253.149: so that means for one ad of 4 lines cost = 1400

70.243.253.149: and for the second add it is 25% of 1400= 350

70.243.253.149: so the total for 2 ads of 4-lines = 1750, right?

Advertisement India: sir in such schemes as we r not getting any benefit from the publication

Advertisement India: so we add 15% service charges

Advertisement India: plus courier and bank draft charges

70.243.253.149: so this service charge you enevr tell to the customer ipfront, but oyu secretly charge it at the very last monute withouth giving the customer a chance to think!!!

70.243.253.149: where do u mention this 155 charge on your website or on any of emials that oy usent to me?

70.243.253.149: 15%

Advertisement India: sir, b sitting in US if u r getting the service in such a nuts costing, then i don't think any harm

70.243.253.149: it s not about cost my dear friend.

70.243.253.149: it is about ethics!

Advertisement India: sir, if the company will not get anything how can one work

70.243.253.149: you tell the cost upfront, otherwise it s basically cheating by playing games with custoemrs mind and exploiting his or her situation

70.243.253.149: YOu are not getting it!

70.243.253.149: I am not against this 15%

70.243.253.149: I am saying you shoudl charge it

70.243.253.149: but you should tell it on your website or by email!! charging without telling is stealing.

Advertisement India: u mean to say that we shud clearify before charging

Advertisement India: no, this is not stealing, stelaing is when, when i accept the payment then i tell u

70.243.253.149: yes Sir, not only before charging but on your website customer should have this information to make his decision!!

Advertisement India: before accepting the paymnt we send u the estimate

70.243.253.149: ok foirget it

70.243.253.149: you will nto get it.

Advertisement India: just to cross check the costings at yr end

Advertisement India: if it is acceptable to u then only make the pmt

Advertisement India: else no isues

70.243.253.149: hwo do i know if it is acceptable to me or not unless you tell me about this 15% which you would not have unless i had bothered to waste my time early in the morning like this.

70.243.253.149: you never told me about this 15% voluntarily! which is sad way of doing buisness.

Advertisement India: in todays date every person takes the rates fom the publication as well as from the agency like us

70.243.253.149: Forget it.

Advertisement India: every showroom is having the right to create its own price tag

Advertisement India: its upto the customer if it suits him then only come into the showroom

70.243.253.149: yes oen price tag! and you put that price tag on the item, have you ever gone to a shop and took a shirt to the counter without knowing its price and pay whatever they tell??

Advertisement India: never

Advertisement India: and that's why only w sent the estimate first

Advertisement India: so that u know the shrit price before purchasing

70.243.253.149: but yo uhide that 15%, dont you?

70.243.253.149: that hiding is equal to cheating is equal to stealing.

Advertisement India: no

70.243.253.149: HIDING is a negative word my dear.

Advertisement India: what do u think anybody provides the bedroom service from his pocket

Advertisement India: when u go to the showroom to buy the shirt, one shirt costing 2500

Advertisement India: in that the cost of electricity & lots of other expenses is included

70.243.253.149: all I am sayign is you should clearly tell your customer about 15% serivce charge upfront on your website, so that they are aware of what they are buying and not get surprised later on or worse feel cheated.

Advertisement India: so as per u the retailer must disclose ll the expenses in front of the customer

Advertisement India: tha 50 rs towards the thread we used

Advertisement India: etc etc

Advertisement India: Gentleman although u r living in US but sorry to say u r still from India thoughtwise

70.243.253.149: no, not like 15 rs for thread, 10 for elect, 92 for cleaning the floor, but they should not put a price tag of 1000 on the shirt when i pick it from the shelf and on the counter charge me 1200 instead of 1000!!! saying that extra 200 is for other expenses.. if there is extra 200 then they should nto put 1000 price tag on the shirt, instead directly put a 1200 tag. the end of the story. that is what they do.

70.243.253.149: I will take it as a compliments :) it reminds me of old classic song "mera juta hai japani, fir bhi dil hai hindustani " :))

Advertisement India: thats why i given u the x cost of the ad

Advertisement India: good, keep it up

70.243.253.149: ok.

70.243.253.149: could you check my account and tell me status of AI-

Advertisement India: sorry we can't provide the service to you

70.243.253.149: what!!

70.243.253.149: reason?
