Sir,

This is a complaint against Wood World Modular Kitchen. We gave contact to J Balasubramanian, Owner of Wood World Modular Kitchen for complete woodwork, netlons, grillwork and other interiors for our flat in Chennai. The total contract was for 7 lakhs. He has already taken 6 Lakhs from us and still not completed even 40% of work. He always takes money with commitment to start the work but gives excuses like his mom was unwell and he spent all money on her, his sister was getting married and spent all money on those expenses etc. We kept trusting that he would complete the work if we give money.. But unfortunately he never bothered to start the work. He is a BIG FRAUD and so is his mother. He insisted that we make payment thru net transfer in his mother's account.We did that.. But now both are not willing to either give our money back or start the work.

Since we kept following up and threatened that we would go to court he shifted his business from Chennai to Bangalore. He is now running his business in Bangalore..

It has been more than 2 years now and we are still in pain....

His contact numbers are ; 9566171755 (Chennai) ;09901677457 (Bangalore).

Seek your support pls.

Best Regards
Subha

This is with reference to Subha, our bad luck we experienced the same in Bangalore. Wish we could have found Wood World Modular Kitchen owner Balsubramanium is a fraud person earlier.
He has also cheated us in the same manner. It was two flats one is mine and the other one is our friend's in the same building. We both gave contract to him. He took 60% advance in Jan 2010 and since then he was just dragging the work. Finally he run away with money and left the work incomplete (both flats). The work status is 20-25% and now we need to pay double price for the same work.
Last six months were very stressful as we had to follow him everyday. He used to go to Chennai for a week and used to come back after a month. After every return there used to be demand of money. But still we continued to pay him with the hope that he will complete our work. We wanted to shift to our own flat at the earliest but were helpless. He is not answering the call and we can not find him.
Is there any way to recover the money, we paid him by cheque and cash.

Hello,
I think you should go to the police station and make complaint against this fraud guys and also show them proof also it will be better and result will be in your favour.

Hey I think you should make complain to the consumer court of your area or any nearer police station to treat these persons who cheated you. I had the same problem with my dealer from where I purchased chairs for my office and they cheated me but with the help of consumer help officer I came out from the problem.

Hi All,

He is declearing himself bankrupt now.. says he has nothing to pay off his debts.. or to give back our money.. he says ,he fears no one.. and is challenging that court or police cant do anything to him.. should we all not jointly take some effort to take out our money from him...

Hi All,

Seeking your Cooperation.

I will write the entire things soon.

Dear All,

I also cheated by Balasubramanian, owner of Wood World Modular Kitchen, Chennai.
I have given contract to him worth Rs.61000/- to him to create Modular Kitchen and TV cabinet for my new flat. I got his contact through Sulekha.com. Once the rate finalized I released 50% amount to him as advance and he needs to finish my work with in 19 days from the contract date. Unfortunately he never started the work in the first 10 days. When I try reaching him he ignored all my calls, some times he cut the calls.

Then I went to his off ice address as mentioned by him, I was shocking that no such address. He runs his business in the address 1.5 yrs back in the address. After so much pressure I got his Residence address. I reached his house and talked with his house members, After that he made many promises to close the work on time, but never bothered his commitments. Now some of the poor carpenters came to my flat and started work. They worked only 1.5 days and then they absconded with some cutlery materials.

A week gone, after so many follow-ups/pressure another carpenter came and he made the basics. He worked for 3 days. After that he demanded money from me (he insists that he is coming work only for me not for BALASUBRAMANIAN, also the payment expected from me). Then BALASUBRAMANIAN made pressure to release money to the carpenter, otherwise carpenter will not come for money. Then I started releasing payments to the carpenter (later the carpenter told me whenever I get money I need to credit partial money to BALA's Account) . One day the carpenter stopped the work and wanting for Material. I asked the carpenter to ask material to BALASUBRAMANIAN, but the carpenter replied BALASUBRAMANIAN didn’t picking the calls.

After 10000(???) rings to BALASUBRAMANIAN, he attended my call and put me in pressure to pay money for materials. I don't have any other option, then I paid money for material and I personally picked the material. HERE I ACTED AS COOLIE.

Then the Carpenter finished the initial work and waiting for Kitchen Doors, CHIMNEY and HOB, when I asked BALASUBRAMANIAN for kitchen doors, he told me that door order already placed in JAZ Enterprises, Chennai. He committed the doors will come in 5 days (Still Chimney and Hob are pending). Doors not received as committed by him, then I made a ring to him he ignored my calls. Then I called JAZ Enterprises and they replied me that NO ORDERS RECEIVED FROM BALASUBRAMANIAN. After 10000(???) rings to BALASUBRAMANIAN he doesn’t have courtesy to attend my calls. Then I personally visited JAZ Enterprises and booked the order with Advance payment. They took 5 days to finish the doors and I personally collected doors in their Thoraipakkam factory. HERE I ACTED AS A LOAD MAN CUM DELIVERY BOY. After several follow-ups and pressure to BALASUBRAMANIAN to bring Chimney and Hob, finally he given one Mr.Lalithkumar’s number (Chimney dealer in Chennai), I spoke with him personally to deliver Chimney and Hob. He told me many fraud stories about BALASUBRAMANIAN and asked me to commit payment on delivery. After receiving the material as per BALASUBRAMANIAN I dint paid money till now. HERE I ACTED AS FRAUD. Now Mr.Lalithkumar calling me and asking how to catch BALASUBRAMANIAN.

I already postponed the House warming ceremony two times due to Kitchen work delay. I fixed to do House warming ceremony on 20th August. This is third time. Now BALASUBRAMANIAN committed me to finish the work before 20th. Again he failed in his commitments. On 19th night I asked my company's carpenter to fix the GAS Hob for House warming ceremony and fix Kitchen doors. Because of time constraint he fixed only 5 doors in the Kitchen. I asked my builder to paint the walls after finishing the Kitchen work. My bad luck without finishing the painting work I have done house warming ceremony on 20th Morning. It was a big shame I ever met in my life time EVEN I AM A RELATIVE OF A POLITICAL VVIP IN CHENNAI. As of now I didn't involve them into the picture.

After House warming ceremony I contacted BALASUBRAMANIAN to finish my work. He committed me twice but not turned. After so many follow-ups now he committed to finish the work on Today (06/09/10). But no carpenters as of now.

Even I spoke with him left and right............Even I scolded his house members .......still he made false commitments. WHAT CAN BE DONE?

IF ANYBODY WANT I CAN GIVE THE CARPENTER MOBILE NO, CHIMNEY DEALER MOBILE NO, JAZ ENTERPRISES NO AND BALASUBRAMANIAN's HOUSE ADDRESS. I FEEL HE SPENT LOTS OF CUSTOMERS MONEY TO DEVELOP HIS COMPANY WEBSITE (Welcome to World Wood Modular Kitchen), it looks and give great hopes to a visitor.

I HEREBY CONCLUDE THAT BALASUBRAMANIAN IS HABITUALLY CHEATING OTHERS AND ENJOYING/LIVING WITH OTHERS MONEY. HE IS NOT A PERFECT CONTRACTOR, HE IS NOT A GOOD SON OF HIS PARENTS, HE IS NOT A GOOD BROTHER FOR HIS SISTER(S), AND FINALLY HE IS NOT A GOOD HUMAN BEING. HE IS NOT FIT FOR DOING ANY KIND OF BUSINESS.

With Lots of PAIN,
Sekar Devaraj
