Friends,

Wanted to warn you all about Aakash Packing & Shipping co. Please don't use their services.

I moved from Bangalore to Pune in the month of May'07 and had taken the

service of Aakash Packing & Shipping company. I also opted for insurance of

Rs. 1 Lkh for my household goods. Upon receving the stuff at Pune we

noticed that most of the furniture was broken/torn off so we complaind it

to them. They promised to send a person for the survey and provide the

compenstation or help with claiming the insurance. They did send a person

for survey who took the stock of the situation however they didn't send us

any insurance claim form neither they provided any help/compenstaion for my

broken stuff.

They had also taken out the brand new spare tire of my Indigo car and

replaced it with a torn one, when I complained it to the person who came to

delivery the vehicle he told me that I can raise it with the cutomer

service and they would take care of it. After multiple followups (through

phone, SMS & email) they agreed to pay me the compenstation for the tyre

(I've a proof of their acceptance) however I have yet to receive the check

from them (its been more than 6 months now).  Now they have not been

responding to my emails/call anymore. I am sure they don't want to pay for

any of the damage and think that they can get away with it. I was dealing

with a guy named Anil Sharma who told me that he is the MD of the company

(cell # 9371236272, 020-25824127), he turned out to be the cheapest among

all the person I dealt with in that company.

More important than getting the compenstation from them, I want to ensure

that I reach out to people to tell them my story and warn them about this

company.

You can write to me at mabajpai@yahoo.com if you need any further info in this regard.

Thanks
Manoj
