Updated by Tanay Goyanka My Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Bronze Gold, which was insured from AppsDaily, was severely damaged when I met with a road accident. I notified the company about the same and got claim intimation ID ADN45_221016_[protected]. I submitted the damaged handset along with a sum of INR 15, 000 (Fifteen Thousand Indian Rupees) in cash at the AppsDaily Customer Connect Point on 26/10/2016. (They said, the handset was beyond repair, and i would get a new handset of exact same model or refund of the invoice value, and for that I need to pay 25% of my invoice value (60, 000)). I was promised that i will get the replacement within 10 days. Now, it has been over 40 days, and there is no response from the company. As per the promise, i should have got the replacement by 6/11/2016. Now, whenever i call them, they say, due to demonetization, the case is delayed (demonetization came into effect on 9/11/2016). I guess, the company works on white and legal money, so there shouldn't be any trouble in providing me the replacement, as govt. has taken all measures to maintain the cashflow . They say that the handset is "under repair". What are they repairing in a replacement case, as you need to pay 25% only in case of a replacement. It has been the worst experience with any company so far. In the modern era, almost 1.5 months beyond a cell phone is very troublesome.
Update 1)
So, Finally got a call today[protected] from AppsDaily that the phone has to be replaced, as it cannot be repaired. This situation was clear from the day 1 itself (that's why the made me deposit INR 15, 000). Now as the same model is not available (Galaxy Note 4 Bronze Gold), they are offering me a Galaxy S6 as replacement. I bought the phone for INR 60, 000 in September 2016, the price of the phone is still the same, while the phone I am being offered costs almost 50% of my phone's price. I have already paid 15, 000 as the depreciation on the price. Now, they are telling me to wait for the phone to arrive, it may take 1 month, 2 month, they can't say. I want them to either refund me the remaining price of my phone, or at least offer a phone of similar value
