Covansys - a CSC company is cheat

I received the full and final settlement after leaving Covanys (now acquired by CSC, but with separate P&L) within 20 days but the settlement paper arrived there after I moved into rented apartment. Anyways, I received it in my hand when I had gone there to meet my old pals. I was shell shocked to see that Covansys had deducted Rs 10000 (Ten Thousand only) as Visa fees. Not to forget, they refused reimbursement of relocation on the pre-text of not having promised in writing, even though it was said by Chris, the HR person. Secondly, they forgot to pay me the transfer allowance (at least that was given in writing) in time and asked to wait for another month for the same. Now, coming back to F&F settlement thing.

I have sent 3 mails to P Gunasagar, undersigned the F&F statement, about the extra charge for fees and not having my PF account closed and money given to me. So far he hasn't replied to me. I'd never asked for onsite position, never agreed to pay the fees, there is no such a policy that B1 visa fees would be taken from the employee, but still I have been charged Rs 10000 for the same. Even though Covansys gave me best MicroStrategy assignment, it seems more right having left Covansys for HR reasons. BTW, I have left companies only after HR reasons. They dupe employees. I have sent mail with electronic signature, so that in future I can take on Covansys (a CSC company) in court for this. One day I would definitely go tooth and nail to get my money back. After all I never worked for a cheat employer. Let me see if they give it or not. and my PF account is not settled. Some 30K must be lying in it. I had asked for my PF account to be closed, but they haven't done it till now.

BTW, if you can help me to get my money please drop a comment. I come to know about comments left immediately.

Update about Covansys and PayPal.
------------------------------------
PayPal has started its own development center in Chennai in Oct 2007. All the employees of Covanysy on the PayPal project were absorbed by PayPal. But, PayPal work outsourced to various Indian companies still continue. Their MSTR dev still remains with CTS, Chennai. I'll update as and when I have any information.

eBay Inc. and PayPal’s development center are recruiting technical professionals with expertise in product development, software engineering and other IT functions. Applicants can apply for positions by sending resumes to IDC@paypal.com or idc_hiring@ebay.com.

BTW, PayPal IDC is people for position for Director.
