Employee Provident Fund, India
Pending EPF Claim

My complaint is regarding my pending EPF Claim. This issue has been going on since 2008. In 2008 my previous employer submitted my EPF Claim and within 4 months I got the dues from the employer and also cheques from the EPF Office. However, the checks were sent to a wrong account number because of which they never got deposited and got misplaced. After a number of emails to the EPF office, I was informed that the cheques had been sent and I should contact my bank. On contacting the bank and after they were able to locate the cheques, I found out that the cheques never got deposited to my account due to the above stated error by the EPF authorities. This was in 2009. Since, then I started following up with the EPF office in Delhi and was informed after numerous calls and a number of emails to them, that I needed to send an Advanced Stamp Receipt along with the cheques, post which the rectified cheques would be released. This I did in Oct and I got the delivery confirmation from the Post Office. However, since then again, I am yet to get the rectified cheques from the EPF Office. I have mailed them since, but have gotten no response, have also tried calling but have not been able to get through to anyone.

My PF no. is DL/23719/50466
