Subject: Complaint regarding unjustified cancellation of food order and request for compensation

Facts of the Case:

  1. On 10 October 2026 at 9:34 PM, I placed an order from Pondy Parottas via Swiggy.
  2. I contacted Swiggy’s customer care chat multiple times to follow up on the order.
  3. After more than one hour of waiting, at 10:35 PM, the order was automatically cancelled without any prior intimation. I have a video of this as part of evidence.
  4. I have tried to cancel my order, because of frustration, for which I didn't get any proper response. The Bot told me to wait sometime patiently.
  5. Though the order amount was refunded, I was not informed in advance about the cancellation.
  6. This caused significant inconvenience, wasted time, and mental stress while repeatedly reaching out to customer care.
Grounds for Complaint:

  • Unreasonable delay before cancellation.
  • Lack of communication and transparency regarding order status.
  • Mental distress and loss of valuable time due to poor grievance handling.
Relief Sought: I respectfully request the Hon’ble Consumer Forum to direct Swiggy to:

  • Provide appropriate compensation for the inconvenience, wasted time, and mental stress caused.
  • Ensure corrective measures are taken to prevent such unjustified cancellations without prior notice.
Declaration: I hereby declare that the facts stated above are true to the best of my knowledge and belief.
