[Resolved]  Sony Mobile India — Mobile stopped working after one month

Address:Birbhum, West Bengal

I am from Santiniketan, West Bengal. I purchased a Sony Mobile from local (Bolpur) dealer. As the mobile could not be switched on after about a month, the dealer advised us to contact the Sony Service Centre, Durgapur which is 70 Km away. The Service Centre failed to correct the mobile and said that it is a major problem. They retained the mobile and provided a used set with single SIM-slot for our use. In view of this major problem and short period (less than 3 months) within which the mobile stopped working, I am requesting for a replacement, instead of a reconditioned set. The email exchanges and pasted below. Kindly help me out.

Sony service is extremely poor - of course, you will find some service support in neighbouring cities.


On the other hand, my purchase of Oplus Xonphone 5 from Snapdeal seems to be complete fraud - the touch screen of phone stopped working in about 7-8 months and both Snapdeal and Oplus have repeatedly evaded the provision of after-sales service and support. The poor quality of product and support is now beyond doubt!
