Shine.com Complaints & Reviews

I have been asked for basic service fee of rs.3200 by Mr.shaif claimed to be HR at shine.com for providing job opportunities and next day a woman claimed to be Rajni Sharma - senior relationship manager trapped me by asking few questions about my job requirements and later started to send multiple proforma one after the other after each payment is done saying that this would be last which total summed up to rs.87000. And when I asked her for sending me proofs for whatever certification she accepted to give she didn't provide, instead asked for some more amount for completing the payment process. They are not ready to give me refund or provide the services for which payment has been made.

I want my money refunded at any cost and don't want your services.

Dear team,

Dear Team,
I got an E mail for Farm manager job at Singapore on 18/05/2023, from shine.com ( [protected]@aol.com )

so I said intrested.then they called from this number ([protected]) to me, they asked my resume and other document sent to them .so I forwarded the details. Then she told job application form amount(Starting) Rs.5900 you have to pay. I paid the amount.

Then she connected the call for an interview with one person at Golden Agriculture Resources limited.After the interview they asked Rs.15000 for job confirmation letter.
Then she asked Rs.25000 amount to complete procedure of visa, totally 45900 rupees.
Then they asked 30000rs for Insurance purpose so I avoided that one . after that they didn't pick my call so I need my money back .

I send all the money to following account

Hi,

I was asked to make a payment of INR 30, 000 as the application & security amount (Refundable) to Trust Vision Consultancy. Plus I have also paid INR 9, 000 for attesting the educational certificates through Ministry of External Affairs.

Now they are asking me to pay additional INR 45, 000 for Visa processing fee which is refundable. I have not paid this amount.The company has shared the employment card which is fake (Gamuda Berhad Malaysia). I doubt the company's email communication address plus the details on the employment card.

I want my money back(INR 30, 000) 100% refunded as they are your client.

I would have to register a Written Complaint against the false practices used by Shine to collect money.

I have also emailed on 17th but no resolution yet.WOW!!

Regards,

Ajay Shrotriya

Hello everyone

Many people have lost money to Shine.com and I know you are distressed and feeling very alone in the battle. I have lost Rs.60, 000 with Shine.com and I am starting a campaign against the company. Please join the WhatsApp group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GhdmWJD0f2V294EZlcgIce

Don't feel bad about yourself if you fell for this trap. It's a classic multi-stage investment scam. Read about it here:...

I, Dhananjay Patil aged 29 currently residing Sargasan Gandhinagar have been a victim of fraudulent and highly unethical behavior from recruiting agency called Shine.com.
On June 14, 2023 I have been asked to pay approximately Rs. 3330.84/- as membership fee for Shine.com. Further on June 15, 2023, the very next day I received many calls and emails from the said agency asking me to upgrade my profile.

I was constrained to provide the sensitive information such as OTPs fraudulently on the grounds o[censored]pgrading the profile. Kindly note that the transactions were undertaken via credit cards. I had been duped of Rs. 1, 40, 270/- till I realized that I am a victim of such a horrible crime.

When realized that they are forcing me to pay for services I don't require, I requested them to cancel the sevrices and provide me my hard earned money back to which they have refused.
As such fake and non value adding services are not at all required, I request consumer forum to interven and provide such refund from shine.com

Thanking You!

Dhananjay Patil

Hi team,

I have paid rs. 3292 for profile highlighting and resume booster, however, the services was quoted by sales person named Ashish and Pushpendra ([protected]). They have offered interview mentorship, profile correction and also said these are the final charges and I can use these services for lifetime. As soon as I paid a guy name Shiva called and asked for another 4600 rs. and something more.
I do not want your services. I want my money back. This was a scam and I do want to continue this.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Please tell me how to return a order that did not look like what I ordered

Dear Sir

This is to report a cyber crime - bullying and extortion.

On 12 June, 2023 I received a call from shine.com that they will help in finding a job for me and provide premium services. To create an account I would have to pay Rs.3000. I made the payment and was connected to a relationship manager the next day.

The relationship manager asked me to make a few more payments cumulatively worth more than Rs.90000 on incremental stages without revealing the full details of all the payments.

First I was asked to make a payment of Rs.5, 192 for educational verification.

Then I was asked to make a payment of Rs.9, 556 for company verification.

Then I was asked to make a payment of Rs. 15, 762 for Resume writing services where I asked whether there are more charges. The executive said no.

But then sent another request of Rs.24, 779 and said that this is the final payment that you have to make and then the profile would be live. I was reluctant to pay but then I said okay will do it.

But here comes the shocker, finally the executive asked me to make the payment of Rs.36, 246 to make the profile live. And this is when I had it. I just didn't want the service at all. It doens't make sense.

I just said please don't give me the services, to which he said that we don't refund the money. But the profile won't be live until 36, 246 is paid.

So I was left in a limbo, I can't get the refund, I can't have the profile live. I just want the refund of all the amount I have paid. These are hidden charges and do nothing but dupe the customer. The executive was also abusive and refused to give full information.

Please look into this and help me get the refund. I am a poor person looking to get a job and through shine.com I have lost Rs.60, 000.

Shine.com will ask me money to get job
Step by step frap money like ask finish first step, second step, third step, like vary 2000, 7000, 2500 like ask, i too pay finally he cut all my calls .finally i received mail only...

Hi, recently one of your employee Umesh Kumar (Umesh.[protected]@shine.com) did a Fraud with me which made me to paid a service of Rs.23000. I don’t want your services but a refund immediately.

Today I got a call from Shine.com for premium services in job search. First they asked to pay me Rs.3292 (Proforma Invoice ID IN20230530_808590) as registration charge post which I informed that I will get an individual advisor who will guide me until I get shortlisted for a job.

Once this is done, I got a call at 4PM for further registration. Representative Shiva (+91 [protected]) introduced himself as Career advisor, called and took my resume, went through it and asked for further details like experience and other personal details.

After this intro session, he sent another payment request stating that is for "Education Verification Plus Package" and confirmed that this is the last payment I have to make to proceed with the registration process. Rs. 5192.00/- was charged (Proforma Invoice ID - IN20230530_808844)

Again in few minutes one more, "Career Assessment Test with Expert Counselling" (Proforma Invoice ID - IN20230530_808849) - Rs. 9557.00/-

At this time I was frustrated and started questioning him for these charged and requested what was the total amount I have to pay. He said that was the last one post that it will be the registration process. The irritating part was he was stating those as Investment and its peanuts compared to what I will get back.

Post this the next level of payment again started, this is the point where I was burst and asked what is the total pending to activate the account, still the same old story,

4. Senior Level Resume Writing Services - Rs. 15987.00/- (Proforma Invoice ID - IN20230530_808887)
5. Jobs on the Move: 180 Days - Rs. 24779.00/- (Proforma Invoice ID - IN20230530_808890)

During these last 2 payments I constantly checked whether those are last payment and he assured that those are the last set of payments post which he again said there is one last payment, that is the point where I got frustrated and cut the call.

Total Sales:

1. Rs.3292 (Proforma Invoice ID IN20230530_808590) as registration charge
2. Rs. 5192.00/- was charged (Proforma Invoice ID - IN20230530_808844) as Education Verification Plus Package
3. Rs. 9557.00/- Career Assessment Test with Expert Counselling" (Proforma Invoice ID - IN20230530_808849)
4. Rs. 15987.00/- Senior Level Resume Writing Services - (Proforma Invoice ID - IN20230530_808887)
5. Rs. 24779.00/- Jobs on the Move: 180 Days - (Proforma Invoice ID - IN20230530_808890)

A person who is looking for a job changes has to pay so much? All these were not requested by me and it was informed that these are mandatory for me to get the premium service. Also he said it was for life time and when I cross checked, most of the items are just for 180 days max.

I told the sales man clearly that I am not in urgency for job change but he kept insisting that the INVESTMENT is PEANUT.

Kindly revert all these charges immediately and I can see all these are listed in my profile which I absolutely dint ask for. This is not the right approach to sell a product.

I cross checked many consumer forum and all of them faced the same problem. To your notice, the entire sale happened in an hour.
