I got this from Nokia india marketing as a complementary one for my Nokia mobile purchase, wait there is a long story behind how i got it. On jan 5th ( the day i bought the device) the shop person was getting some details from me, my phone number, email blah blaah, then he called Nokia customer care or some dept to validate the details given by me and after few minutes i got a message on my mobile "Congratulations you have won a genunine Bluetooth headset, to claim you gift call to toll free number and there was also a voucher code", the shop person was very cunning that he said i can take either the Reebok watch or this gift, at that moment i was desperately in need of a watch so i opted for watch, this fellow to took this as a chance to grab a Bluettoth headset by calling that number and addressing himself as me and informed the customer care exec to deliver this one at his residence.
Some sensible guy/girl who attended this call noted shop person's address but entered my name and mobile number for that parcel and they shipped it via Bluedart on 13th jan, i got a call from Blue dart on 15th jan(friday) that i have got a courier i had no idea what it was and asked that person who called from where it has come??, he replied 'From Nokia' and the address was wrong i was clueless and confused why nokia would send me a courier which has a wrong address i already got their phone i thought it could be some marketing services. Also i didnt want to leave that beacuse it has got my name and Phone number in it correct. Saturday and sunday went past and on Monday 18th jan at 1.30 p.m a person from Blue dart called me and said your parcel is ready for delivery, i told that person to give it in one of my office sites since i was at other office site, the parcel was delivered and due to some bunch of irresponsible people who doesnt take care in other's items it was given to a wrong person who holds same name as mine also that parcel didnt contain any initial there was simply 'Krishnaswamy' (i dont know why they used 'y' instead of 'i' in the end i hate when my name is mispelled) with my Mobile number.
Next monday 25th jan i called blue dart, dont ask what were you doing till that time beacuse i was least interested about it also i didnt even imagine that it would be a bluetooth headset, i got the parcel number from that person who called me initially and asked status of this parcel number they said its delivered on 18th jan 01.45p.m and it was received and acknowledged, that was ridiculous how could a parcel a physical item which was delivered didnt reach me for 7 days, i started to probe on to this and found a soul in office has received and acted lackadaisically also was instrumental in sending that parcel to other person with the same name of mine. The person who recieved it (who got the same name of mine) was surprised and knowingly or unknowingly opened it, to my foolish mind i didnt think in the way that it could have gone to the other person having the same name finally i got it on 25th evening, Thanks to my H.O.D who helped a lot in unearthing this mystery.
That was the story.
Thanks for reading........
