Separate appended account: Tanmay Anand

Tanmay Anand’s appended account concerns a weekday home cook booking in Kolkata on 13 January 2023. Anand expected the agreed duty list, transparent charges and a backup arrangement. The assigned worker changed at short notice, and Anand says the replacement had not received the same instructions.

The requirement discussion and booking request were on 11 January; the assignment and start window were confirmed on 12 January. Anand contacted support on 14 January for a remedy.

The notes list the profile shared before booking, a support-ticket transcript and a bank-transfer reference. The company offered a replacement window and asked for more time to review the charge. A substitute was offered after escalation, but Anand says the booking ended before the next scheduled visit.

The last check recorded for Tanmay Anand’s account is 2023-04-01. The account was posted on 25 March 2023 and updated on 2 April after a support reply. The notes link related material about replacement timing and billing explanations.
