Harassment by packers & movers company what action can we take


07-Nov-2023 (In Consumer Court Law)
We have booked our household goods for transportation from Mumbai to Kolkata through Agarwal d2d packers & movers on 18th Aug’16. We have made payment of Rs 72000/- on 27th Aug’16. They charged us extra 15000/- for 8 days delay in payment. Thereafter we were following continuously with them for delivery of our goods however all the time they given misleading information and did not dispatch my goods to Kolkata. Further after 40 days of taking goods on around 27th Sep’16 finally we have taken goods in Mumbai itself and sent the same to Kolkata through different packers. Thereafter I am asking for refund of my money from them. They said they will only return 32000/- and I agreed for that. They sent me scan copy of cheque of 32000/- dated 25th Oct’16 and promised to deposit the same on 25th Oct’16 however still nothing received and they are just passing time.

Dear Sir/Madam,
You can send a legal notice to the Company seeking refund of the entire amount paid by you to the Company within a period of 15 days. If the Company fails to refund the money you can file a Consumer Complaint for deficiency in service and unfair trade practise and also claim damages from the Company.

Well, you can claim the entire amount from the Company; however since you have agreed for a certain amount with the said Company and that even that amount is not yet received by you, in my opinion, you can send a legal notice claiming the refund of the amount paid by you failing which, you can file a Consumer Complaint and claim damages too for deficiency of service and undue hardships caused to you.
