Answer 1

Web API expects the data sent to it to be serialized in a fashion like this:

Key1=Value1&Key2=Value2&...

If you are using JavaScript or JQuery, make sure that you're sending an Object(in your case matching Bll.Complaint), not a JSON string. If you give us more details on how you execute the request I will update this answer to have an example of how to do the serialization.
