Please do not fill the thread up with useless chatter.. So at least we can find out what is happening.
Seems certain they are going to court instead of reversing the charges for breech of contract for non-payment. Reversing charges needs to be done manually so its a long process. But they can do that.
They will go to court and proceed with breech of contract or mistake. This is done by banks regularly because funds were transferred to the wrong account and banks can reverse charges back to source.
First they will send a written request to gain permission to remove the funds and send it back to source because it was deposited by mistake. If you dont agree they will go to court and get an order to reverse it Which the courts can grant.
So it is certain that Niki will get a court order to reverse funds or charges..
Again we come to the same thing as in the beginning.
They have to manually reverse the transaction. And remove the funds from the source..
You have the choice of paying them the funds they ask. But you missed out on all the discounts. If you did JIO recharges, you could have used a variety of 10% or even JIO’s own Rs.50 discount coupon, so you would be losing 10-15% if you agree. But it is understandable that you dont want the trouble.
We can write to niki about giving them permission to reverse the charges. In which case they have to do that to recover their funds. This is what most of us should do. In the end they will have a court order to do this anyway. And it will be a long process and they have to do this manually. Some will work and some will fail n which case again they have to do this on an individual basis instead of a single court order. Which might never get to court as they have to provide reason why they could not recover.
But know this, of the 2 choices, pay now or ask them to reverse charges, if you dont want trouble pay now. Ask them to reverse charges.. If they do or dont then that is another process..
If you dont reply it means by default you are ignoring a demand for payment and courts can process it their way. Especially if you dont have a lawyer to represent you in court.
So everyone should write to them. With what they are doing. Paying now or asking them to reverse charges. You dont want a default judgement. Again mostly the default judgement would be to cancel the transaction. Which we got against someone but it is difficult to enforce. But it is trouble as well. So even if you are not going to pay, write and tell them you did not intent to make the transaction and it was their mistake.. Etc.. etc..
Standard payment request..
Hi, this is to inform you that on 28th April you have used offer codes on Niki which gave 100% discount. According to our records the codes were not for your usage and were only applicable to a few select users. So we request you to pay INR 1500 here: https://pages.razorpay.com/pl_CPnDQTaEk2tqJ...ew
Please treat this as super urgent and complete your payment by tomorrow.
Thank you for writing in.
As you have used offer codes on Niki which gave a 100% discount. According to our records, the codes were not for your usage and were only applicable to a few select users and you have taken the same from a third party website. So we request you to pay the amount by tomorrow.
As you already know that the promo code which you have used to avail the benefit was not given to you by Niki nor it was displayed in Niki’s website or application but you have taken the same from a third party website which is nowhere related to Niki. We regret to let you know that in case of any successful payment we cannot take the amount back from the biller or the operator. Hence we will request you to make the payments for the benefit you availed.
In case you do not make the payment we will have to blacklist you in the database and it can have future legal implications

Why?
if you dont want to deal with the issue that is upto you.
I would rather deal with this in one way or another..
Right or wrong.
DO NOT PAY. They are free to reverse. Their money is at stake coz of their fucking fault, not ours. If they care, they will reverse even if they have to do it manually.
Not paying is not an easy option. It might end up not having to pay… But if they get good lawyers the verdict might end up as anything.
So we write to them to reverse charges because we made a mistake due to their app not giving proper instructions and transaction information. Ending up with doing multiple transactions which we did not intent to do. Since the mistake was due to delayed response and incorrect input, both are at fault.. If they are unable to reverse charges I am willing to pay for the first transaction..
If they agree to that I will pay the 500 and then they cant do anything else.. Otherwise they will come back with pay full amount etc etc etc and you reply again with to reverse incorrect transaction..
We can go from there..
Please read this one:
There are more than valid arguments with dimers in this case.
In courts it’s the intent that matters more than the act itself. For eg. A murder which is done with an intent of self defence is exempt from charges. In our case what happens is we see a coupon online and innocently thought of trying it, and it works. There is nothing more to it than this. If we knew the website would ask us to pay later we would not use it. It appeared it’s an running offer from the website. We are innocent and do not owe a single penny to anyone.
Lol if ur intent was to recharge, then recharges don’t come free! U got to pay for the same!!
Kya ukkhad na hai ukhhad le ,nikki wale… I looted 5k.
Got this reply from them,

In which case they can go after the web sites posting the fake codes.
How are users supposed to know which codes are for whom? Originally I assumed this offer was like the paypal offer.. Rs500 CB on making payment.. Remember paypal also had Rs250 100% CB for dream11.. I dont think this reasoning of theirs hold water. Also it took a while before I even realized what happened as their messages were delayed a lot. ie it only showed anything after many tries.. Some of which also failed.. I cant seem to find the chat transcripts now. Seems they cleared them out. Including the failed transactions where paypal cashback never showed up.
Thats why I created this thread so we can come up with a coherent reply to this. In any case we need to come up with something to file in court against their filing. I already have the substance for the counter affidavit. Where they failed my transactions and never followed up with their offers they were advertising. So not for me or for me.. That part has no meaning.. But need to flesh it out more..
About which offer or bug are you ppl talking?
stop using this app i uninstall it on dec 2017 till now never use it because of their unprofessional behavior. they deserve 1 star.
I was sad when some dimers looting 5k-8k early on a Sunday morning and thought about installing niki.. I’m glad I didn’t cuz some way or another i would face another annoying trouble.
Last year, paytm cutoff rs 375 from my balance out of nowhere and never returned my money. Now its hard for me to trust any other app except amazon.
Anyways, I hope some expert dimers here can help you out with this. Good luck!
it is always better to not do anything when emotional.. Seems niki already sold out.. But their losses dont seem too bad. Its just a small fraction of their funds. But lets see what they will do.. Almost anything they do would just make a bad situation worse but people do a lot of self destructive things..
I only went in to do 1 recharge but ended up with 4 because of their app locking up. I am fully prepared to let them pull the recharges. But since they waited this long I am not sure the companies will allow them to do it now. They have a window of a few days to cancel a transaction. As it is a long process for them as well. Niki dont have the years it will take to get a court order for this. This will be alexa 2.0 long before then..
Amazon aint all that much better.. Many of their employees sleep in cardboard boxes so they dont have to travel 4 hours a day to their homes. They keep bottles handy so they they dont waste 5 minutes to go to the bathroom and eat premade ready to eat meals so they can finish lunch as fast as possible. I do not support amazon at all.. But at least their US version has great customer care.. indian version like the bnsl lady told me, we are a third world country, what do you expect..
Also every day amazon app provdes me less functionaly than the week before.. I am almost out of being able to play the daily quiz now.. After that it would be totally useless app.. Even sent them feed back since they never fix any of the crash bugs which happens every day.. This is what thye call updates and progress..
.
Just curious how much niki lost from this
Like 32l.. But we dont really know. I would have thought it was higher. Unless people got greedy and just kept pushing the server even when it did not work and locked out everyone after like an hour.
So only like 1000-2000 people took advantage of it. Their system was unable to cope with the load. Imagine if this was Amazon.. Something like 50000 people used them in around the same time.
Another useless thread.
@admin merge them all together with other useless Niki topics.
