Stay away from Talkcharge.com- another non-serious startup.

Indian e-commerce market is flooded with startups. As Mr Kishore Biyani of the future group says, many of them are just non-serious ventures. They are not just dangerous to their investors but to customers also. I have already written on my experience with Paybackbazaar..com. The experience with Talkcharge.com was still worse.

I tried to recharge Rs 220 each on 19th 21st August 2016. Transactions at the end of payment gateway were successful. Due to some issue with talkcharge.com both transactions were shown as pending. These issues are common with ranging from 2 to 5 % failures in any e-commerce sites while doing online payments. I have absolutely no issue with this.

The seriousness of the e-commerce sites can be measured how they solve the issues once the customer faces some problems. Talkcharge.com failed in resolving the issues faced by me. I had emailed them regarding the failed transactions. I got a reply and they accepted these transactions were successful. They also promised to refund the amount into my wallet. Everything was fine until that point. They did not put their email into action. The amount was never refunded to the wallet even after several emails in last 15 days. They did not even bother to reply to my emails.

care@talkcharge.com is the single point of contact without the address or customer care numbers. If you did not get a reply to your email, you do not even have any alternate method to contact them. They have not even mentioned who they are in anywhere at their website. Even their domain registration details are not transparent. It is always better to stay away from such e-commerce sites as there are more chances of losing money and mental peace.

I will update on how much struggle was needed to get the refund from Talkcharge.com once I succeed.

Update: Finally they have refunded Rs 440 to the wallet after 21 days and 6 emails. You can decide your own- should you use this website for recharging your mobile?

Rcommended buy- CELLBELL.in – Tempered Glass Screen Guard

Cellbell is a Pune based Indian company provides mobile accessories. If you are bored with China made screen guard you can give a try to this high quality made in India tempered glass screen guard at low price.

We had purchased screen glass for Lenovo Vibe K5 from amazon.in. We paid Rs. 159 for the printed price of Rs. 1699.(A random number is printed may be because printing MRP is compulsory in India).

Packet contained wet and dry wipes for cleaning the screen before applying the screen guard, dust absorber for further cleaning of the screen to remove minute dust particles. The plus point of the kit is that it contains 3 guiding stickers to hold the screen guard to the phone firmly to help us with the proper alignment. These stickers would be very helpful in fixing the screen guard perfectly on the phone screen if you not an expert.

The screen guard has holes for camera, speaker and sensor. Unlike many screen guard which are open at this part and look awkward, the hole gives elegant look to the phone. It was perfectly fitting on the cell phone also gave an awesome look.

It is available cellbell.in, amazon and ebay. Price varies at different sites, have a look at these sites to make comparison to get a best deal.

DMR Mini Wash DMR461218 - a Value for money washing machine

It is a made in China washing machine available with amazon.in and ebay.in. Seller Lakshmi Enterprises located at Pune is the distributor of this product in India. They have an option to send this even with India post.so it could be reached to remote places. Only thing is we have to collect product from post office near.

It is washing machine along with dryer. Having mechanical timer and spinner settings. Built quality of the plastic body is good. Dryer tub is also of good quality steel. Knobs of the timer and spinner are also good. Input and output pipes are of poor quality. That could be replaced with locally available pipes for Rs. 15.

This is useful for a small family of 3-4 people. Or for a baby whose clothe needs to be washed separately and many a times in a day.

At a time it washes 3-4 bed sheets. With clothes pre-soaked in soap water collar and cuff of the shirts will be cleaned. About 4 pairs of pants and shirts could be washed. Dryer tub is small so clothes washed have to be dried in batches. so it could be used as only washer to save power.

Pros:
Fits in small place ()
Washing capacity 4.6 kgs
Consumes less water and power 240W AC input, 220v 50Hz
Sufficient for the family of 3-4 people Easy to use.
No much technicality involved Installation not required Easy to carry from place to place.
Weighs only 8-9 kgs
Makes less noise

Cons:
Outlet pipe to be kept up while filling the water.
And down while draining. This has to be done manually
Water level for washing has to be monitored.
Spinning the clothes has to be done in batches with fixing separate steel tub.

We have purchased this item for Rs. 4699.00 on ebay.in. You can also get discounts using ebay coupon codes.

Beware of PayBackBazaar.com

Payback Bazaar which claims to be a Recharge & Deal Marketplace for Day-to-Day Needs of Young, Smart & Tech Savvy People is found to be one of the worst such websites on the internet. Our experience of paying a postpaid bill, recharging prepaid mobile and DTH is one of the worst of its kind I ever came across. Here is my experience with this website. I am not able to comment on the speed of completion of such transaction as none of the transactions are completed by the website!

Problematic Recharge Experience: 
I had registered to the site on 18/08/2016. I tried to recharge two BSNL prepaid numbers with Rs 220 each. Both were added to cart and proceeded to payments without adding any coupon codes. The site redirected to CCAvenue payment gateway and credit card got billed. CCAvenue did the job properly. The recharge got failed and Payback Bazaar added money to the PayBack Bazaar wallet. I thought there would be a technical glitch and hence tried again. Once again, an email confirming deduction to the wallet received and soon another email stating the failure of recharge also delivered to my email ID. I have tried with recharging !deal, BSNL, Airtel; paying BSNL, Airtel bills; recharging DishTV continuously for next 3 days. Nothing went successful and Rs 440 got struck with PayBack Bazaar wallet.

No option to revert money from the wallet: 
Payback Bazaar wallet does not have the option to revert the failed transactions amount back to the bank or credit card. Many wallets give this option. Even if the recharge gets failed hundred times, one need to try again and again at their website itself. It will definitely annoy the user.

Poor Customer Service: 
An email to pbdesk@paybackbazaar.com never answered. The contact/complaint form filled on the website never got a reply. Tried reaching on the customer care mobile No +91 7718067380 which is said to be Open from 10:00 AM  to 07:00 PM. No one answered the call twice even on the full ring and the line was busy twice. So my feedback on customer service is again the worst.

My honest advice is to stay away from PaybackBazaar.com to save your hard earned money and valuable time.

Updates: A single women customer care number was not able to provide any solution. The call to the direct number was unanswered many times. All my emails are unanswered. I had to send an email to their founders and directors to get my amount refunded. It took them almost 2 weeks to solve a simple issue. Hence I stick to my earlier advice- stay away from PaybackBazaar.com
