I had purchased two vouchers for Rs. 7000 each in January 2011 from bookmyholiday.in (India today group) which is affiliated to a company called "Affordable Sales Promotions Pvt Ltd" based in Noida. My booking id is 77777 8400 & 77777 8401. The sales person named "Abhimanyu" promised that the vouchers are valid for one year and can be used anytime giving them 1 months notice before booking.

Now I tried to reach their customer care number 0120-6182100 a number of times to enquire about a booking/availability of a resort in Coorg but there is no answer. Emails to bmh@affordablesalespromotions.com are never replied.

Has anybody had any experience with bookmyholiday.in or Affordable Sales Promotions? Are they also fraudulent? I thought bookmyholiday.in should be credible as it is part of India today group.

In spite of no. of calls on your customer care no. none of your representative lifts the phone only the recorded voice goes on.and then the ph. disconnects.

THIRDLY it was told that a i pod will be given and we have also received a sms for the same.but that has also not received. THE SECOND ORDER NO. AS GIVEN ON CELL BY SMS IS 270369. AND BOOKING ID IS 77884477. PLEASE REPLY WITHIN 3 DAYS as we have already made payment of both.
please see into the matter serieously or other wise we will be compelled to go in consumer court for the harrasment and 420. BRIJRATAN CHANDAK

I have purchased a voucher for Rs. 7000 21st January 2011 from bookmyholiday.in (India today group) which is affiliated to a company called "Affordable Sales Promotions Pvt Ltd" based in Noida. My booking id is 777778624.

We've filled in the voucher code form and sent it along with a Demand draft of Rs. 750 couriered on the 7th Oct 2011. On the same day, I called up the costumer care no. and spoken to Raj, Vishal and checked the destination and Hotels availability . On inquiring we came to know that those preferred hotels are available. But when the hard copy of the form reached to them they were not willing to give us any of the hotels mentioned on the form and refused to allot it saying that those are not available with their vendors. We were never been told/mentioned while booking the package that hotels allotment is subject to vendors availability.
I have requested for a transcript but to no avail. I've sent them several mails on bmh@affordablesalespromotions.com but no reply. All their customer care executives are liars and has no sense of respect.

The hotels they are pushing for or are available are very dingy, shady and low class. The standard hotels are not available or might not be affordable to them.

We are planning to visit Bandipur (Country Club Bushbetta resort) Udaipur (Jagat Niwas Palace) and Jodhpur (Bal Samand Lake Palace or Fort Khajarla) in the month of Nov. but, all these hotels are not available according to them, whereas when we checked it with the hotel its available.

The time is running out of hand and they are non responsive.

Either I would like stay in the above mentioned hotel or figure out a decent hotel besides Kuchman Haveli, Jaipur Hertiage or Shambhu Vilasl. All these hotels are very very bad and looks too cheap to stay.

I am awaiting your positive reply.

I received the call from the reps of bag it today for holiday package,they promised me to send an apple i-pod if i booked two and gave the guarantee that i will get the reservations in hotel as per the choice without any problems.after booking.my id nos. Are 1010497169 &1010496523 whenever i called up the two fraud persons aarav verma-09555249489 & diya rastogi-09015427538(both, i think are reps of nigerian fraud group),they never picked up phone and tortured me for 45 days without sending andy hard copy, when i received the hard copy there was no i-pod.i request the concerned authorities to make them accountable for committing wrong things and why the destinations of the promised hotels are not available? Why they are forcing us to stay in sub-standars and cheap hotels.kindly deal with this group as anti-national elements and take them to task to prevent further fraud to the innoccent citizens of this country.this group is similar to the nigerian fraud group.
Expecting a high level of enquiry from the authorities to take action against aarav verma & diya rastogi to misguide thousands of people.

ALL THE CUSTOMER EXCUTIVE ARE LIAR .I MAILED SO MANY TIMES TO BAG IT TODAY AS WELL AS bmh@affordablesalespromotions.com BUT NO REPLY HAS GIVEN TOME.THE NAME OF CUSTOMEREXCUTIVE IS NIHAL AT THE TIME OF TAKING

I had purchased Rs. 7000/- voucher from BagItToday.
And in the month of August-2011 I have drawn a DD of Rs. 750/- against Affordable Sales Promotions.
I couriered the form along with the DD to their mentioned address (Noida address which is still mentioned on their website)
To our surprise the courier came back!!!!
After repeatedly calling their customer care number 0120-6182100;
Almost at the 11th attempt I could actually speak with a human!!
They gave me a different postal address to courier. Then I courierd the documents again.

Till this date I haven't got a phone call from them.
The hit ratio of customer care number is still 10:1 (if you call 10 times; somebody comes online once and then either keeps me on hold or hangs up!)

Last week one lady Neha called me and asked if I want to renew my subscription for next year.
Well... They sure have guts to call up customers and ask for a renewal !!!

Can somebody guide me how to recover my Rs 7750/- from these CHEATS??

Frustrated consumer
- Upendra.

The prestiges INDIA TODAY GROUPS book my holiday (Afforable Sales Promotions) company their marketing people conveince me to purchase two vouchers for Rs. 7000 each in September 2011. My booking id is 555551236 & 555551237. The sales person named "Suresh" promised that after my second booking - 32 inch TV will be delivered which has not happened till date.

Several emails from my side as a reminder has remained unanswer.

Hard copies along with DD for Rs 750/- sent for Hotel Booking on 02.11.2011 in the address mentioned in the form was returned with remark “LEFT WITHOUT ADDRESS”.

The crediability of the organization is in doubt. Has anybody had any similar experience with bookmyholiday.in or Affordable Sales Promotions?
