Complaint against Central packers & movers

Hi All



Would like to bring to your notice & caution you all against the

existence of a fradulent,corrupt movers and packers company by the name

of- CENTRAL CARGO PACKERS AND MOVERS, located at Bangalore/ Delhi.

Although this company claims to be an ISO 9001:2000 certified, it has

indulged in cheating & Inconveniencing its customers which includes my

husband & myself while moving from Bangalore to Mumbai..



We approached the Bangalore based office of CENTRAL CARGO PACKERS AND

MOVERS, at A-40,2nd floor,D-Dutta,II stage,Yashwanthpur,Bangalore-560022

to move our household belongings and motor bike to our apartment in

Mumbai. They were scheduled to give us a door to door delivery (check

receipt attached) of all our belongings on 30-March-08.For this they

charged us RS 13,500 for transferring the goods.



We were assured by them that we can leave for Mumbai and the stuff would

reach us as scheduled. But to our total surprise the stuff did not reach

us even 10 days after the scheduled date. We made repeated phone calls

to the owner of the company Ajay Sharma, but he told us that most of our

things were misplaced & that he does not take guarantee for it. On

perusal he finally sent in half our stuff. However most of it was

scratched, broken and dilapidated (check photos attached)The height of

un professionalism came to the forefront when they refused to send in

the bike and started blackmailing us to give more money over & above the

RS 13,500.They demanded RS 6,000 more although we had a receipt of the

RS 13,500 already paid to them.( check receipt attached) On refusal of

payment into this extortion they threatened to never return the bike.

This is despite the fact that they had already misplaced most of out

stuff and were now keen on only swindling and extracting more money.

Soon they started threatening us with their links to an influential

political party



To top this all after repeated request they brought the Bike via Tempo

outside my house and then refused to put it down till we paid them the

extra money, now claiming that this is the octroi charge for a bike.

However, the question of Octroi duty for the same does not come into the

picture as the bike is registered with maharashtra itself.

When we refused to make this unwarranted payment,they soon started

haggling and were ready to negotiate on this amount of RS 6000.This act

took us by surprise & we realized that they are into the business of

harrowing, cheating , threatening & using coercion to extract

additional, undue money over & above the cost from the people who use

their services.



This incident took us by shock to see that there are such fraudulent

companies that cheat people in the guise of service for payment.Kindly

make note of not using the services of this particular company to pack

your goods while movement from one place to another.



Thought would inform you guys because as young professionals we often

move cities & I would not want anyone to have the same mental

traumatizing experience like us. Kindly caution as many people as

possible by forwarding this email. This may save someone else who might

want to tie up with these bunch of cheats.
