Indian Oil Corporation [IOC] Complaints & Reviews

Hi,

Our Consumer number is 48068, we are asked to book LPG cylinders from Rashmi Agencies, Mysore road. Following is my complaint:
1. They take a lot of time to even book the LPG cylinder, they have their own rules and will not book until certain time
2. They have booked our LPG a fortnight ago, but are still not delivering.
3. They are very rude and don't even bother for the customers.

Please help
Regards,
Deepak

It is to inform you that I am a consumer of LPG Gas of Indane Gas and my Consumer code No is AZ-10859 and is booked with Azad Gas, Haibowal Kalan, Ludhiana.My Gas connection is since 1998.

I approached to Azad Gas for replacement of Gas regulator which has problem of Gas leakage.But they refused to replace giving argument that regulator is of 1998 whereas my connection is of 2003. I told them that I transferred this connection from Kesari Gas, Ludhiana to you and also shown them my Voucher issued by them.

But they refused to replace my defective Gas Regulator.

I am suffering a lot and have also a fear of any mishappening due to leakage of Gas.

Now I have no option to go to Consumer COurt.

Thanks.

Sir
we are from paramakudi.located at south india.our area indane gas agency named R.K.gas distributors. Our TNSO No is 2761558.distributor code 133005.They are giving very poor response to customers.if we want to book gas we need to go directly to office .it will effect our other jobs.once we book direct also they are giving us delayed.they giveback to us after 21days of booking date. our area people getting more problems due to this type of cases. Please verify and settle our problems as soon as possible.

I am a LPG consumer with M/s RAJ FLAME, SHOP NO. 11 Ground Floor, Shanti Market, Uttam Nagar, New Delhi-110059. The Telephone nos. 25337713, 25338997 for booking gas refill. It is common phenomena that for booking a refill you have to try continuously but unable to contact, you will feel lucky if agency people pickup your call. Ever they do not consider "booking" through landline to tel.no. 1260 as well as through services provided www.TOMOGAS.com.
We are handicaped by this agency.

This is clear message of "KAALA BAAZAARI" with curruption in all department related to GAS distribution SYSTEM. We can't understand that WHERE IS GOVT., Consumer Complaint Forum ?

Only publicity and VOTE is your MOTO,

Curruption also exist here in this website, If our complaint remain as it is after sending it in this web site.

saravana gas agency, perugalathur, a indane gas distributor for perugalathur, vandalor and urappakkam. Pandian nadar was a fraud guy, who illegally sell the cylinder for Rs500 / Rs.600/- for the bakery and tea shops. He refuse to accept the new connection, transfer and refill.

Pandain nadar a beggar from virudhunagar, becomes rich by illegal use of lps gas.

IOC suspected this agency for two times, but he manage to resume the business with the help of political support.

Hope IOC official will terminate this illegal fraud agency and appoint the new one.

Dear Sir,

I live in Adipur, Kutch. We are from one year asking for new connection for Indane Gas. I have gone to the Adipur market cross roads, Near PGVCL Electricity Office. First of all the people out here do not know how to speak to customers and if ask again they answer back saying how many times do we tell you. They behave as if it is their own company. They answered us saying that the connections of year 2005 are pending so we have stopped giving new connections. Even at my in-laws place they are in Gandhidham, Kutch There also if we write gas they count number of days. They don't have stagnant days sometimes 10 or 12 days.

This sounds like Indane Gas company is at a stake. We do want a connection. Could you tell us as a lay person where do we go if your company people talk like this.

Thanking you.
Regards

I m the consumer of indane gas having consumer no. 5191 and get the supply of gas from M/s Jai hind gas service (kda market, galla mandi)shastri nagar kanpur.Dealers code no is 85015256.
The dealer doesnt book the gas on telephone, on visit the employ misbehaves.supply is also not proper, he books the gas after several visits.Today in the morning wife of the consumer had visited but he did not book due to inavailability of electricity and asked to come after 2 pm, once again she visited at 3.30 pm even then he has not booked the gas and told that booking time is over.

Dear Sir,

Is IOC listening? tHE GAS CONNECTION IS IN MY WIFES NAME bearing the consumer No.5960.The concerned dealer is Klin Gas, Kharavela Nagar, Bhubaneswar.Last Winter Ihad informed similar kind of problem to IOC top authorities but no punitive action was taken.I don't know how a fortune 500 company can behave so indifferently with consumers.
In mid October'08 we got the refill cylinder for booking done early September'08.Obvoiously I had to go for gas from the market in the festive season.Against the current booking done on 20th as the booking was refused earlier to my wife over phone(which hardly works), no delivery has been made so far.That means between early Sept'08 and Nov1st, Klin has managed to deliver only one Cylinder.
Mr.Kumar Nayak is an unscrupulous man who trades out domestic supply in Winter and the IOC Officials are hand in glove with this man probably sharing the good fortunes with the dealer.Everytime they say they are taking steps.They do take steps but only to enahance the unscrupulous network of the dealer.Your officials like Mr.Ghamnashyam Nayak(last year) supports & defends Mr. Kumar Nayak when confronted with your established distribution policy.Now the airport area has been added to this dealer's network when IOC Official Confrm repatedly that there are massive number of complains against Klin Gas.
If immediate action is not taken by IOC officials to make immediate delivery of gas cylinder I will be constrained to file a case in the Consumer Court and lodge an FIR against both the concerned dealer and IOC, Bhubaneswar for mishandling the distribution of gas.

Hi,

I have booked my gas connection exactly 4 months back with M/S Sheetla Gas service pvt Ltd in Gurgaon and is still awaiting it. So far nothing with regards to this has been done and they are providing an answer of this being provided by approximately the month of March2009 i.e. in 9 months. Is it the normal time for getting a gas connection ?

Are we still in this much bad shape with respect to LPG although the crude price in international market has declined from $140 to $65.

I am not sure if this delay is normal or if they are bind with some timelines of providing this services to the public. It seems they are behaving in their own way and do not want to change.

I am looking forward to some legal actions in consumer court or similar authorities to take this forward for their irresponsible behaviour.

Dear Sir,
I am a customer of Indane Lpg Gas with consumer no-4355 in name of Trasarenu Saha..now I am really frustrated and irritated with the service and behaviour of my local gas dealer, address -Indo Tower, 25 Baikunthdham, Khajrana Rd, Near Anand Bazar, Indore, M.P.Till date they are not in a situation to give any proper answer, when I will get my another connection, though I have submitted my application as per rules and regulations.Whenever I enquire them about it, everytime they show their attitude and telling that next month I am suppose to get my double cylinder connection.When the next month will come God knows...!!they hardly deliver gas within the time limit they said...!!...so I am really get tired and sick...Can anyone help me out..?...Anyone listening or not...??..I am thinking to change my connection from Indane to HP...!!It's horrible...!!

I have a connection with Sridhar Gas Service, 11/4, Morrison First Street, Alandur, Chennai-600016. Consumer no is 29180.The distributor is refusing to supply refill stating that my wife has a connection with Sai Krupa Gas Agency, 298/3, 15th Avenue, Inner Ring Road, Ashok Nagar, Chennai-600083. He wants me to surrender that connection.
If we do that, we will be left with only 1 cylinder and how can we manage with that with the erratic and delayed supplies of refills.
I complained online to IOC about 2 days back and till date no reply has been received from them.
Kindly advise further action.

Subject: Improper Service of Raj Flames, Indane distributor, New Delhi.

Respected Sir,

I am an Indane customer for more than 25 years. During the past one decade we are being serviced by M/S Raj Flames, Shanti Market Rama Park, New Delhi. With a heavy heart, I am resorting to lodge a complaint about the indifferent behaviour of this particular service provider. Unfortunately, we could not contact them on telephone for the past 10 months as they never pick up. They insisted that we should go to the shop for booking the gas cylinder. I did venture once. It is really pathetic scene there. The front shutter is closed always and customers are required to go to rear side and stand in the Q for at least one hour for booking gas. The rear side is actually a nursery and the land is uneven and there is no shelter for the waiting customers. After reaching the counter one gets a very curt look and the people behind the counters, particularly one gentleman whose name I am not aware of, behave as if there doing a great favour for the sustenance of our lives. It may be mentioned that this area is one of the so called backward areas and people are used to live without so many proper facilities and infrastructure. But this kind o[censored]nfriendly behaviour, in fact, rude behaviour is not expected from a service provider that too from one of the largest Public Sector Undertakings. Never our booking on 1260 materialised from this Raj Flames. I am sure the paying customers deserve a small courtesy.

I do understand how ticklish to tame these people. Most of the people are local heavy weights and having equations with powers that be. But sir, a small effort from your side will do a lot for the scores of hapless customers. Please kindly make a visit to this place and see the conditions yourselves and listen to the customers available there. The service is also very poor. We never got a replacement before one week to ten days time after booking. Our friends other parts of Delhi say that they get replacements with in hours!!! Of course, we have a small problem. We are working couple and available only on holidays. We have in fact, got that written on our account slip. The people who bring the cylinders are aware of this.

Sir, I earnestly request your kind selves to go into this issue and take necessary remedial steps to improve the service conditions.

To day we went to that place and having faced them and upset, I resorted to lodge this complaint. Otherwise I am also one of those crores of Indians who accept every thing as fate. And a philosophy of “This is like this and will be like this and no body can save this “attitude. I am even a little sceptical that this complaint may boomerang on me.

With a fond hope that some body may act …………….


Yours sincerely,


(D.Sudhakar)

I, Vijay Chandra Paul, holding Indane Gas Reg No: 9873, face a hell lot of problems in booking gas every month. The Distributer near my residence is "Srinivasa Gas Agencies", Near Sushma Theatre, Vanasthali Puram - 500070. Ranga Reddy District. Andhra Pradesh. They Never pick up the telephone, either they keep aside the telephone receiver or they never lift for telephone booking. Everytime I have to go to their agency for booking the gas. If I complain with them regarding this issue, the distributors are very rude in responding to the consumers. They feel that as if they are distributing gas free of cost. Since yesterday morning I am trying to book gas over telephone, but I could not reach them over phone. Moreover, they close the agency before the closing time everyday. I feel that I have to change to another distributor to come out of this issue. I request you to please do the needful to me in this regard.

We have made compaint regarding Gas leak from Regulator continously last one week, Distributor Shiv shankar agencies, Porur, Chennai not responding to the complaint.
The distributor telephone no is always busy and if we go in person also there was poor response.
Even emergency situation like Gas leakage, Indane distributor reacts irresponsible and do not worry about the consumers safety.

This is regarding booking of LPG cylinders through Kalpana Gas Agency KPHB, Hyderabad. The agency is not attending the phone calls at all. To book the Gas you have to go to the agency office and then they will tell that the gas will arrive in a month or so. I hope IOC is listening and will take appropriate action to correct it.
