Subject: – Complaint under section 12 of the Consumer Protection Act, 1996, as amended upto date On account of:
Delay & Deficiency in Service as per Contract
And Negligence on the part of Opposite Parties.

Honorable Sir

I have approached M/S World Wide Immigration Consultancy Services Ltd. (WWICS) SCO 2415-16, Sector 22-C, Chandigarh in the month of May, 2013 for providing me Permanent Residency under Federal Skill Trade Program, CANADA which is a Job Offer Based program,

The requirements of this program are:
1. IELTS Score 5 Bands overall
2. Have at least two years of full-time work experience (or an equal amount of part-time work experience) in a skilled trade
3. Have an offer of full-time employment (Job Offer) for a total period of at least one year OR a certificate of qualification in that skilled trade issued by a Canadian provincial or territorial authority.

However I have fulfilled and met all the requirements of this program.
Whereby WWICS were required to arrange job offer for me within 9 months from the date of contract viz 10-May-2013 under clause 1 (e) & 3 of contract No. 01020120125 ; the extract of which is reproduced as under:-
• 1(e) “The Company shall only be responsible for securing job offer and not for any immigration consultancy or immigration application filling or assessment or processing, including application for Labour Market Opinion (LMO) from HRSDC/Service Canada.”

• 3 “The Client understands and agrees that the normal time period to obtain job offer may take 9 months. The Company shall not be held responsible for any delay occurring in processing period regarding the issuance of the positive Labour Market Opinion (LMO) due to backlog of cases or any reason whatsoever.”

It is further intimated that I had already made the timely payments as per contract to the WWICS, the details of which as under:-

1. 10-5-2013 Registration Fee Rs. 202248 Cheque No. 82015,Canara Bank, Phase 7, Mohali (Punjab)

2. 3-7-2013 Pre Installment of Job offer Rs.261915 (US $ 4300) Cheque No. 820152 Canara Bank, Phase 7, Mohali (Punjab)

Thus the Total payment made so far = Rs. 4,64,163/- (Four Lac sixty four thousand one hundred sixty three)

The above timely payments has been made upto the receipt of job offer as per contract as total; there is no outstanding payment against me so far.
That WWICS have failed to arrange/ deliver job offer letter to me as per contract. Even after more than 18 months has elapsed, although the same has to be arranged by WWICS within the period of 9 months as per contract w.e.f. date of contract 10-May-2013.

I have visited number of times to WWICS offices at Chandigarh as well as Head office, Mohali to persue my case. Repeated phone calls have also been made to WWICS to enquire about the status of my case. It seems that the attitude of WWICS have been found to be uncooperative and also tried to defer the matter on one pretext or the other. WWICS even tried to back out from the agreement by pressuring me to get refund of payment at this stage and also tried to convince me to get transfer my case from Federal Skill Trade Program to “City of Morden (Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program)”, meaning thereby to get rid of its failure to arrange job offer letter in contravention of the contract.

It is quite obvious that I have wasted about more than 18 months with the false promise of WWICS to get job offer, subsequently lead to Permanent Resident Visa as per contract/agreement. The inaction on part of WWICS has resulted me a huge harassment and mental torture as I have to left my Professional Course “Computer Hardware and Networking Engineer” in-between.

Now in pursuance of my legal Notice dated 22-11-14, WWICS had sent me a Reply through Email dated 25-11-14 whereby, WWICS has intimated me to return me only 1,12,500 Rs.+ US$ 4300 & Rs 15,000 (total about Rs. 4 Lacs) Instead of Rs. 4,64,163/- Lacs with Interest.

It is obvious that amount of Rs. 4,64,163 Lacs becomes recoverable from WWICS with penal interest of 18% along with Rs. 5 Lacs on account of mental torture & harassment inflicted upon me and spoiled my career through this long period of 18 months because I have left with no option to join further higher studies / Job Experience anywhere because of the high hopes of WWICS commitment to send me abroad, as such the claim of approximately Rs. 5 Lacs may also be charged to WWICS on this account for Spoiling my career. Thus the total claimed amount of Rs. 10 Lac becomes recoverable from WWICS on grounds of deficiency in rendering service, causing delay in genuine claim of the complainant, Penal Interest of 18% and Litigation expenses incurred to me.
I have affixed the requisite court fee and I didn’t filled any case in this court or anywhere else earlier before.

It is therefore, respectfully prayed that the complaint be accepted and the OPs be directed to:-

1. To Refund Rs. 4,64,163 (Principal Amount) alongwith the interest@ 18% per annum from 10-5-2013 till realization.
2. To pay a sum of Rs. 5 Lacs on account of mental harassment, agony and sufferings suffered by me, most importantly for spoiling my career through the long period of more than 18 months.
3. To pay Rs. 11000/- as cost of complaint and litigation expenses.
4. This Hon’ble forum may be pleased to grant any other relief/pass any other order as deemed fit and proper in favour of the complainant and against the OPs.

Thanking you
Yours Obediently

Respected sir

This is NAVIN KUMAR from kurukshetra and i want to complaint regarding fraud, which is done by WWICS(WorldWide Immigration Consultancy Services Ltd.),On 10th of october 2013 I met to Mr.Vijay kumar and asked for permanent residency for canada, and he assured me that i am eligible for residency. But before that i have to pay 68,000 for registration or wwics charges. And i deposited the same but till today i have not received any information regarding my file.And my file number is (84448) Last month i had transferred my case from karnal to head office Mohali. And asked for the status of my file but they told that i have to pay again 75000 for company fees.Now my complaint is if i had already paid in similar company so why should i have to pay again. And karnal is the mini branch of WWICS. So this is the clear from facts that their intention is just to grab the money by hook or by crook. So please this is my kindly request to you, take some initiative…thanks

Due to this fraud i have to pay extra 75000 and mental harassment.

I think everybody should be aware of the WWICS fraud and WWICS cheating, so that other people do not get scammed by them as I got. WWICS cheated me upfront and did not deliver anything as promised by them. I am shattered and frustrated with no option but to curse myself for trusting in a useless organization like WWICS.

My experience with WWICS has been pathetic. They are just a scam company who is trying to steal money from people by luring them into their immigration trap. They did not get my PR work done as promised by them and even did not refund me in full my money that I paid them even after 10 years.

WWICS cannot be trusted. They are simply no good and cheat people for money. They did not help me with my PR which they earlier promised to get approved in 5 years. They made a fool out of me with their fraudulent procedures and scammed me by not even refunding my money in full.

Never ever go to WWICS for any kind of immigration or PR related services. They will make you wait for a long time and then just leave you without any productive output. They waste a lot of time and investing in their services in a big mistake. They scammed me too and did not even refund my money.

WWICS is fraudulent trap. Do not fall prey to their scam. They have useless work procedures that would not be helpful in any way to you. They promised me PR approval but did not get the work done. Today I stand shattered and frustrated with no option but to curse myself for trusting in WWICS.

Long long long wait and no result!!! That is all you get from WWICS in return for your trust in their services. I paid them my hard earned money and in return I got stress and frustration. They promised me a PR approval in 5 years but instead they made me wait for 10 years with no PR approval. They are a scam as they kept all my hardened earn money.

I will share more info from different users in coming articles and let you know WWICS fraud in different countries for the employment.

If you have been researching on how to get a PR or if you have been looking for consultation on your immigration, then there is a good chance that you might have come across a company called WWICS. But before you go ahead and contact them for help, please take out some time to read my review on their services.

WWICS for me stands for World’s Worst Immigration Consultancy Service. I have been scammed by this pathetic organization like others who have also posted their reviews on internet about this company. WWICS is the second name for fraud. They fooled me by taking my money and giving me nothing except lot of stress and frustration.

I got in touch with them in the year 2003 in order to take their services to help me attain PR in 5 years time. I paid them in full but still they took 7 months to submit my PR file. And due to this irresponsible delay from their side, I got stuck with a new rule that came during that time which extended the PR approval period from 5 years to 9 years. Following this I had to wait 6 long years only to get my time wasted by them for a 3 day training regarding my PR file submission procedure and like always this also ended up without any positive output. Later in 2012, i.e. 10 years after 2003, I got the shocking news that PR can no longer be processed because of policy changes. I was frustrated and felt humiliated beyond imagination. I asked them to refund my money and compensate me for my time wasted, but all they offered was an amount of….. which was even less than the original amount of …… that I originally paid them.

I want to alert everybody to stay away from this scam and would urge other people who have been a victim of WWICS fraud, to come forward and share their story so that other people do not fall prey to this scam.

WWICS they find the client through Colorful advertisement once they get the first payment they have many excuses . they keep changing their staff so the client document get misplaced .also their knowledge about the immigration industry is very poor compared with other agent . they themselves make many mistake while filling the case . Finally the success rate in 100 / 1% only .

Many complaints are there..

You will just end up wasting your money. I lost more than a lac by enrolling with WWICS. It’s a real waste agency.

The level of commitment showed was extraordinary. All my queries are promptly answered and I was guided in right direction all the time. This gives me immense pleasure in thanking them for guidance and support during this process.

I would reiterate that, I am most happy with my experience at WWICS, and I will very strongly recommend you to anyone who comes to me asking for a good, genuine visa consultant.

I would once again like to thank you for all the efforts and I wish you success in all your business endeavors.

A very big sincere thanks to WWICS for standing by me and my family to ensure our dreams came true. She acted and behaved in a very professional manner from the word go. WWICS took over my case from another bunch of clowns and it was such a relief and a breath of fresh air for me personally. Our visa I am sure would not have been granted in the time frame it was if we did not have WWICS as our acting agent. She is worth her weight in gold. When somebody sends you an email at 1.30am you know you’ve got a goer and a winner on your team. And we had WWICS as our agent and now we are moving to Australia at the end of the week. I rest my case…Thank you WWICS for everything. God Bless.

I would like to thanks for Miss Reena and all depart of WWICS India which guided me for success.

I would like to inform that CHC released my passport from New Delhi office and received on 2014 march 25. I will inform you if any doubt about the report. If I have to prepare any skill and requirements, please inform me. I have not confirm the date to go because November, 2014 is my last date to arrive. If you have any suggestions about to prepare please suggest on mail. I will send scan copy of visa stamp next mail.

I am obliged to you and WWICS about require guidance and suggestions and hope that WWICS help me indeed.

Thanking you.
