I subscribed for INDIA TODAY for 1 year.While enrolling they promised me to send me ADIDAS TRAVEL BAG as a free gift within 10 weeks.I enrolled on 14/04/2014.My Sub.No.ITE455095.Even after complaining with their portal WE CARE, I just received a verbal assurance via phone.I wonder whether this is a false promise just to attract more subscribers.Who hears the lame voice like me against powerful media house like Living Media?

With reference to the above subject, I have received 3 books through VPP which were not ordered by me. I have paid as per the invoice. On inquiry, I had sent the books back to Living Media India Limited, New Delhi on September 29, 2007, for which I was told that I will be reimbursed with the money. So far (November 5, 2007), I haven't received any payment. Gopi.
Living Media India Limited has sent me a VPP parcel and I am supposed to pay Rs. 525 at post office to collect. I haven't even ordered any books. This company is sending unsolicited parcels hoping people will pay up and collect parcels from post office.
I ordered three books on the net through India Today Book Club on 31st May 2007 . I have received three books today but they are not the same as the books that I had ordered. People beware!
