Agar 48 hours me resolution na mile to official email support (query@meesho.com) par proof bhejein. Iske baad bhi unresolved rahe to National Consumer Helpline (NCH) par escalate karein. ## Real Problem Examples Use this route when the product is marked delivered but you did not receive it, the seller sent a different item, the package was damaged, the refund is stuck after pickup, the return window is being wrongly denied, or customer support keeps giving the same scripted reply. These cases become stronger when you show the order timeline clearly: order date, promised delivery date, actual delivery or pickup date, first complaint date, and every follow-up reference. ## Exact Complaint Strategy Start inside the shopping app because marketplace support can see order logs, return pickup status, seller replies, payment method, and refund initiation status. Keep your first complaint short and factual. Mention the order ID, product name, amount paid, exact issue, what resolution you want, and the evidence attached. Avoid emotional language or threats in the first complaint. If support closes the ticket without resolution, reopen or reply once with proof. After the platform gives no useful response, escalate to National Consumer Helpline or e-Daakhil depending on the value and seriousness of the issue. ## Documents and Proof Keep order invoice, payment screenshot, delivery SMS or email, package photos, unboxing video if available, return pickup proof, courier tracking, chat screenshots, email replies, and refund status screenshots. If the product is fake, damaged, expired, missing accessories, or different from the listing, save the product listing page also. If you paid by card, UPI, or wallet, keep the transaction ID and bank statement line ready. ## Timeline to Follow Raise the first complaint immediately after discovering the problem. Give the platform 48 hours for basic response and 7 to 10 days for refund or replacement where applicable. If the refund is already approved but not credited, wait for the stated banking timeline and then escalate with the refund reference. If there is fraud, fake product, or repeated closure of tickets, do not wait too long; create a written complaint trail and move to NCH. ## Escalation Route First: app or website support. Second: email support or grievance contact if available. Third: National Consumer Helpline with all proof. Fourth: e-Daakhil/consumer commission for serious monetary loss or unresolved deficiency in service. For payment failure or unauthorized debit, you may also need to raise a parallel complaint with your bank. ## Sample Complaint Draft Subject: Complaint regarding order {{order_id}} - {{issue_type}} I purchased {{product_name}} for Rs. {{amount}} on {{order_date}}. The issue is {{brief_issue}}. I contacted support on {{first_complaint_date}} and received complaint/ticket number {{ticket_number}}, but the matter is still unresolved. I am attaching invoice, payment proof, product/delivery photos, and support chat screenshots. Please provide {{refund_or_replacement_or_resolution}} within a reasonable time and confirm the action in writing. ## FAQs Q: Can I complain if the return window is closed? A: Yes, if the product was defective, wrong, fake, or the delay happened because of support or seller action. Explain why the issue could not be resolved within the window. Q: Should I file directly in consumer court? A: Usually create a written trail with the platform and NCH first. For high-value or serious disputes, e-Daakhil can be used when informal escalation fails. Q: What is the most important proof? A: Order invoice, payment proof, issue photos/video, and support ticket history.
