has somebody received gift items on purchase of more than 10000 ?

[bidhu77]

I had purchased a digital camera from ebay costing more than Rs 10000 during the period (till 31st dec) when ebay was giving free gifts (like 2gb mp3 player)on purchase of more than 10000. But till now I have not received any gift from ebay. Is there anybody who has received gift items on such purchase and after how many days.

[bhushan.mehta]

ok...i bought items worth 1000+ each and entered the gift codes. ebay accepted them, but i have not received any confirmation email or message from them about it...is this normal?? I mean do i now just wait around & gift "aaya toh aaya"?? ?:|

All those who said they have not yet received the gift...have you yet?

[vnvadityavnv]

How long do we have to wait for the gift ??? I ordered 5 days back !!...I already got my item.

[bhushan.mehta]

same here...already received my item, but no hint of gift!

[vnvadityavnv]

wen did u order ??

[zoom_prateek]

it takes atleast 45 days for the stupid ppl at ebay to "process" your gifts... i bought items in valentine's sale, i got my gifts now in april. so, no more purchases for now, e-bay SUCKS!!

Please be patient. I am sure you will receive your gifts. I too agree with you guys that eBay must do something to speed up their process so that we can receive our items and gifts on time.

Hello,

As part of the eBay birthday celebrations offer, I had made 3 purchases on eBay.

On March 30, I made a purchase having PaisaPay ID 24059136385 and used eBay gift voucher LQPSEXMYS8

On March 30 again, I made another purchase having PaisaPay ID 24059712475 and used eBay gift voucher LMSKDA0CYL

On March 31, I made a purchase having PaisaPay ID 24067440665 and used eBay gift voucher NZEWZS2YUG

However, till date, I have not received even a single out of my 3 free gifts from eBay. When I wrote to eBay Customer Service, on April 18, I received a reply that I would get them within 45 days of purchase.

Well...it's over 45 days...no receipt!

This is ridiculous. The only reason I purchased from eBay was because of the free gifts offer which essentially made it cheaper to purchase the same items from eBay than another similar site online. The purchase was made because of these promised free gifts from eBay which made it a better bargain. Promising something and not having it delivered after 2 months is downright shameful and then making the poor customer right in time and again requesting his free gifts is not right.

Why promise something when you are going to take more than 2 months to deliver it?

Could Indraneel or somebody else please update me on the status of my free gifts?

[bhushan.mehta]

I was pleasantly surprised to receive both my gifts within 45 days, although eBay customer service told me they will ship the gifts at least after 45 days!

Hello Guys,

Just want to update you with a truly disgusting eBay experience regarding my order that I have had today.

I just got a call on my mobile from eBay which had the phone +91 (22) 66xxxx00 (not sure if I can publish contact details so rubbed out) claiming I had given an incorrect shipping address and that is why my gifts were returned undelivered.

I am a user with 218 positive feedback and till date every purchase has been delivered successfully and my feedback clearly shows it. Last purchase and positive feedback received being as recent as April 29, 2009.

Anyways, I give them the address again on the phone but it then just strikes me and I ask how do they say it is undelivered. The caller says online tracking shows it. I ask the courier and they say it's Blue Dart. Now this is one of the best courier services and we receive parcels from them everyday. So I ask the tracking number. After being put on hold for a good 5 minutes, the lady (Shailaja or some name with a 'S') replies there is no tracking number? What!

So that's that. Now, I receive an email at 6:28pm which says:

"Hello,

Thank you for writing to eBay. This is Abhijit from eBay Customer
Support.

This mail is regarding your eBay Anniversary offer gifts claim for the
Paisapay id:24059136385,24059712475,24067440665.

However the gifts were dispatch to your registration address of eBay but
due to incorrect address updated the gifts were send back to eBay. We
were trying to contact you on the number: xxxxxxxxx which was incorrect
and also on xxxxxxxxx.

I would request you to update the proper address on your eBay account
and once you update the address kindly send us the intimation mail so we
can dispatch the gift to your new address.

I appreciate your patience and understanding in this matter.


Regards,

Abhijit
eBay Customer Support"

This is ridiculous! They just spoke to me on my mobile today and now they say it is incorrect. The other number which is my office number has been active for 25 years! I am an eBay user with 218 feedback and now they say my Registered Address on eBay is incorrect! Are they freaking mental!

This is the limits! Not only are they unprofessionlm but also pathological liars! This is disgusting! I dread to think if this lying and deceit is eBay induced or just a complete failure of eBay employees being taught moral Indian and cultural values when growing up.

I WANT TO SPEAK TO AN EBAY EMPLOYEE EMPLOYEE OF MANAGERIAL LEVEL NOW! WE CAN'T EVEN CONTACT ANYBODY EXCEPT SOME LOWER RUNG, LYING EMPLOYEE!
