I strongly agree with all the friends above.
Dear friends, as I have faced few online/offline data entry companies who are asking for Registration Fee and I have paid also the Registration Fee but in return of that neither I got any reply/work nor I got my money back. Therefore, my dear friends, I have a honest suggestion to all of you that if any company is asking for Registration Fee then do not go for that else not only you will face cheated, waste of time, mental harassment but also you will lose your genuine money. Of course you can go for a Registration Fee free company.
Today, I talked with the MCA representatives and I asked few questions and what they replied mentioned as below in points:
• Q.1. If a company is registered with MCA is it Genuine?
Ans. It is Genuine but we cannot guarantee.
• Q.2. After registering with a MCA registered company by giving Registration Fee, further if that company became fraud then how to complain?
Ans. There are two forms in the website and you have fill up those two forms and send those two forms to MCA.
• Q.3. After submitting those two complains forms, how many day it will take to get the result?
Ans. That will be notified by mail to your email-id.
• Q.4. How many days it will take to get by my money after giving complain?
Ans. We cannot say particular time. That will be notified by mail to your email-id.
So, above are the true facts.
If, the Govt. organization is not able to give details for taking decision HOW CAN WE TAKE DECISION?
Therefore, you are all advised just stay alert, stay calm and think as much as you can before taking any wrong decision in over excitement.
