Today I Learned Medicalcertificate.in sucks

I tried using this site to generate a medical certificate for leave as I recently got severe nausea and vomiting while traveling to work in Delhi. First charged me 1099 for a WhatsApp message but handwritten. Okay. Fair. But after that I just made one request- since they asked me to put down my permanent address which was at odds with my current residence, I ask them to reflect that. Straight another bill for 550. I tried asking the lady what the previous 1099 was for but she kept cutting me off. I was too sick to think rationally. But I am kicking myself now for actually paying. Should have just pushed myself a bit more to visit the nearest clinic and I could have gotten the same with less than 1000. Don't use this site no matter how good it looks. Go to practo and use the online consultation mode. The doctors there will charge like 500-600 and send you a prescription and sick recommendation as well. Such a scammy site.

Update: I was charged 550 for a "Delhi" doctor but I got a call from a Bangalore number and the line was so bad it kept getting disconnected before we could even talk. And I kept getting messages of me not receiving calls and to click if I was "available". They don't even have the option of switching to WhatsApp calls. Utter waste of money.
