I was working with an organization (Ernst & young llp) which has outsourced the pf withdrawal process to alp consulting
I submitted all necessary papers for processing my request of withdrawal of pf amount. The receipt of documents and the fact that all documents are complete was confirmed by the alp consulting team on september 29, 2017 vide an email.
Since then i have been following up with them for status of the refund however the same remains un-resolved. I have not received the refund of my pf amount and have been chasing up with alp consulting team without any luck.
They have not looked into the matter and have neither responded to any emails or calls.
I am attaching all relevant emails which i have sent to them asking for a response

Dear mr. Brajesh/ vineet
Please find all mails below with reference to my pf withdrawal.
I await a response and it has been close to 4 months that my issue remains un-resolved. I have absolutely no clarity or even a mail from your side on the time-lines of my withdrawal.
I would sincerely appreciate at-least a mail, if not an action from your side for the time-lines. Pleas appreciate that i have a personal reason for withdrawal and need the funds urgently
Regards
Ayush

Dear all
It has been practically 4 months since the time i had applied for withdrawal of my pf balance.
My wife had done the same process with her organization and the amount was credited to her account 2 months back.
I would request you again to process this at the earliest.
Alternatively, kindly give me the contact details of the senior team members so that the issue can be escalated
