Preface by Alok on 31/3/2013:
On February 13th, 2012, Deepak Sharma started this post on therodinhoods.com. It took 20,000 page views, 193 comments and innumerable cases of cheating, complaints, follows ups and god knows what to put an end to this menace???
I know 'Caveat Emptor' (Buyer Beware), but what when we become BEWARE?? what happens then??

Original post by Deepak:
Browsing the HeadStart Community Google Groups post today I found out about this very shocking complaint; more like an outcry for help. Sharing the whole situation & my online Jassosi.
Complaint against:-
TIMTARA.COM or
Infosecure Consulting Pvt. Ltd.
B-26 Second Floor, Sector 8
Noida, Uttar Pradesh -201301
India
I also found so many other similar complaints on web :-
http://www.consumercourtforum.in/f10/timtara-com-infosecure-consult...
http://www.consumercourtforum.in/f10/timtara-com-infosecure-consult...
http://www.consumercourtforum.in/f10/timtara-com-60083/
http://www.consumercourtforum.in/f5/timtara-com-infosecure-consulti...
THIS COMPANY CLAIMS ON THERE WEBSITE THAT "timtara.com is Rated No. 1 for “User Experience” by Dataquest Magazine + Sapient-Nitro Research in Jan'11 within 7 months of launch."
DELIGHT MORE SOUNDS LIKE CUSTOMER PLIGHT. What do you think?

Alok / Deepak :
Yes I agree its bad.
No excuse - but we are doubling our turnover for the last 3 months. And we are a little over a
year in biz. The organization and the fulfillment (team, sourcing etc) could not keep up with
the speed for Dec and Jan. Because we are new some customers panicked and others who
got on time were delighted.
We reached out to the affected customers, toned down our marketing, strengthened supplier
relationship and just about come out of the "delay" phase.
Try us out sometime.
Cheers.

Permalink Reply by Praveen Aravamudhan on May 11, 2012 at 2:09pm If you paid by credit card, call the issuer (bank) and file a chargeback claim.
If you paid from your bank account, trace the transaction, speak to the bank and check about what can be done. Timtara would have processed the payment via a payment gateway - you can find out who that is, pass on the transaction details to them and ask them to assist with a refund too.
If none of these work, you can always go to the Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in your state - http://ncdrc.nic.in/sDetails.html
