Blue Star India Complaints & Reviews

Bought a blue star ac from this VENKATRAMANA Electronics, RP road,Secunderabad. which was a big mistake.we called them up for our first servicing and after 10 days of continous calls to these ppl the servicing was done and the mechanic could not even do it properly as my ac was not working from the next day. Its more than 1 and a half month these people dont even care to send a mechanic to fix it as we are fed up of calling these hopeless people 100 times a day as they dont even bother to respond to our calls .We had to visit their shop personally and the dealer was rude and irresponsible even though ut wa their mechanic's mistake . One of the worst service we have ever seen.when they cannot provide proper service then why the hell are these people selling Acs better shut their shops and sit at home.Their inability and inefficiency of their service team is bringing a bad name to the product.

After more than one and half month finally the ac got repaired they replaced some parts which was their mistake as they spoiled a AC which was working properly .so i advice customers to think twice before buying anything from this dealer.

I have purchased Blue Star Split AC Model: 2HW181YC-VERTI COOLSPLIT AC 2.5 TR-VCE301SC/2HW181YC , FROM Dass Associates, Kalka Ji on 5/4/2012 installed on 6/4/2012 at my residence 1740/6, IIIrd Floor, Govindpuri Extension, Kalka Ji, New Delhi-110019. I have faced problem of Non Cooling and lodged complaint on 21/5/2012 via TICKET NO B[protected]. I have given phone number of dealer Parth Services [protected] after several follow up the dealer has given me another no of Mr Balbir [protected]. After many follow up my complaint was entertained by dealer but still I am facing the problem of non cooling and again yesterday requested to reopen my complaint. I have informed that my problem will be resolved within 24 hours but till time nobody has come from your side to resolve the problem.

You are kindly requested to look into this matter urgently.

i had purchased a split AC of Blue star considering that Bluestar is reputed company....but after some AC was not working properly,so i complaint to the prime marketing from where i purchased the AC but after repeating complaints since 15 days they are not able to sort the matter....till date my problem is not sorted out....

a company like Blue star is behaving like this its ridiculous.....

i am planning to take it to further if not attended.

We purchased one split AC for our office from a blustar dealer. Rates quoted by vendor were higher than other vendors for installation hence it was not installed by him. After installation it started creating problems.After many complaints to headoffice a mechanic came and set it right. Now in this season again it is not working. Warranty is valid till 10th June. Mechanic again came on complaint but he is asking for Rs 1800/ He says that gas has leaked and capacitor is also damaged. He now wants to place astand also. These things were not written in the quotation.
We have complained since 4th April but no action has been taken.

This is with regard to the supply & installation of Ducted split Airconditioners of 11 TR – 2 nos and 17.5 TR – 1no for which the project work was given to your dealer Naveen Air conditioner, we had clearly told that they should carry out the work only in night time for which their prop Palanivel had agreed and later they used to work on their own that is working on only weekends and no response during the weekdays not receiving the calls and working as per their wish and convenient time. Before he used to call us hundreds of time for the contract but after that we being customer are calling him.

We had issued PO on 11th January and now its almost 1 month now. The work included only installing the a/c equipment and connecting to the existing duct for which your dealer had promised to complete the job in 10 days and working in night time only. We had made the 50% payment on material and labour as per the dealer request on 28th December 2011 but till date the work is not completed.

We had given the contract to Blue Star believing that they would work professionally and would not disappoint us as they are one of the largest companies but really very disappointed and frustrated the way of work. Our employees are struggling and suffering without A/C but your dealer is least bothered.

On 27th January we had given him the PO for providing thermostat 2 nos for which the he told he will complete in 2 days but the work is also pending. If the dealer is not able to complete the job on time and is busy with other projects then why he should take up our project. Blue Star should seriously look into their dealers.

Even blue star doesn’t care for their customers even escalating to them ther is no responce so there is no surprise that their dealer also is not bothered. What is the use of this escalation procedure if no action is taken or we get a reply. Blue star and there dealer has let us very disappointed and they have made sure that we should not go again with blue star a/c for our further requirement. We keep on calling but dealer is least bothered to receive our calls.

Had a very bad experience by going with blue star a/c.

Dear Nodel Officer,

We had placed an order for Cold Storage Room in our Ware house based in B-57, G.F, Naraina Industrial Area, Phase II, Delhi 28 from our one of the Group Company Labindia Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. and had given advance of Ch. No. 918511 dtd. 26.09.2011 of Rs. 82466.00 (25% Advance payment) and cleared from our Bank on 22nd October, 2011.

Due to unavoidable circumtances we had to transfer this Order PO/LHPL/DG/0014 dated 16.09.2011 to be placed from our another Group Company, i.e. Labindia Instruments Pvt. Ltd. The matter was informed to the dealing sales Executive Vishal Garg ([protected]) and against that we have given following cheque_
1. Ch. No. 293897. Dtd. 17.11.2011 of Rs. 82,228.00 (towards 25% advance payment), cleared from our Bank on 24th November, 2011
2. Ch. No. 293898, Dtd. 17.11.2011 of Rs. 164456.00 (towards 50% advnace against delivery) and cleared from our Bank on 24th November, 2011.

While releasing above 2 cheques of Labindia Instruments Pvt. Ltd. we had given a confirmatry letter to change the Account name and refund of Advance given by Labindia Healthcare Pvt. Ltd.

We had been given commitment by the sales staff of Blue Star that on clearance of cheques given from Labindia Instruments Pvt. Ltd. the advance payment given from Labindia Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. will refund within 2 weeks time.

Since then we are running Pillar to Post for refund the advance. We are not expecting this business aethics from such a big Company like Blue Star We are still waiting our refund

We Request you to refund our due advance within no time.

Bought Blue Star in April-2010 Since beginning the unit is not working properly.

its fan creates high sound with low cooling and high electricity consumption Since April-2010 to till date I had chased the Blue Star service team followed bu multiple engineer visits with no solution, In about 10-15 visits in 15 Months every time there was a New engineer with different conclusion but no relief.

I feel myself stacked with very Low service from a brand of our own country.

Hope to get the desired relief through this step at earliest.

The desired documents are available with me on the same to proceed.

I purchase a 1.5 Ton split AC in DEC09 and in Jan11 the split started to drip condensed water. Your Blue Star mechanic avised that a part was gone and need to change the same. I paid Rs750. Now again the water is dripping from inside and your mechanics advise that the Inside unit be completly serviced cost again Rs750.
This morning I noticed that the 2 ton split purchased in Marc10, in the hall, the water out let pipe in of such poor quality that it has come brittle and broken and now water is leaking inside the balcony.
I always thought that Indian Companies were good but am ashamed to think the same way now.
The after sale service is so so poor I will never again purchase Blue Star A/C. I was thinking of replacing our bed room A/C but no never.
Least Blue Star can do is have this complaint looked into. Otherwise will understand that is also another of those substandard iIndian Company.
Thank You
Bob Lazarus,

Following are excerpts from Complaint to M/s BLUESTAR AC :


On 30.05.11, I had booked subject AC from distributor M/s VEDOM’S ,Gokulpeth Market, Nagpur-440010. The distributor had promised me to install AC on same day by 2.30 p.m.

Please note the reason we purchased AC was that we had visitors at our home & wanted them to have good rest at night given extreme weather of Nagpur city.

Unfortunately, the system came after repeated follow ups at 6 p.m , promising that technician for installation shall reach by 8 p.m. After our repeated calls the technician didn’t come on 30.05.11. Even dealer stopped attending our calls as if he is least interested in attending to the problem.

Yesterday , on 31.05.11,after repeatedly following up with dealer & their technician , the unit was finally installed by 5 p.m. Immediately , after installation , we found that the air guider is not working & same was shown to their representative who promised that someone shall be attending to that problem.

Today, when I checked up with the dealer regarding status of my problem, they expressed total unawareness. Ultimately , I called up Blue Star Service centre at Nagpur spoke to Mr Amit who registered my problem with customer care & provided the ticket no.

Again same problem repeated, while I desperately calling up BlueStar’s representative Mr Vikram (Mob : [protected]) , he repeatedly promising that technician shall reach by 1 hr/by 2.30 p.m /by 4 p.m /by 6.30 pm. Ultimately he gave me the mob no of Mr Nitin Mob : [protected]. Till writing of this complaint i.e 6.45 pm no one has turned up from BLUESTAR.

I have following issues to address :

1. The Service levels of your Dealer are pathetic & lack professional approach.
2. Your Product Quality is very Poor . Incidentally, this was my first experience of owning BLUESTAR products which has left poor impression on my mind
3. Lackadaisical attitude of your staff at Nagpur Office.

This is my final effort for redressal of above issues, failing which we shall be constrained to return your product & claim refund. We hope that your good self shall look into the matter & resolve the same at the earliest.

Blue Star Split AC 1.5 ton purchases on 7th May 2011 went off on 15th, the service people came and refilled the gas and then again it blowed off in 3 days again they have done some welding inside the outdoor unit and again inspite of refilling the gas once again it blowed off last night. Its a severe defect that must be at manufacturing itself ..... please do not go for blue star as it is expensive than others and is very poor in service ....

sir i am a customer of BLUE STAR and purchased a Window AC 1.5 ton in july 2008, though it is out of warranty now but its compressor comes with a warranty of 5 years. my Ac's compressor has stopped working and so i approached local service center and they told me to call customer care center @ tool free number.

i booked a complaint on 10th of may and they assured me that problem will be resolved within 4 days, but all in vein, m still sitting in this scorching heat waiting my AC to get repaired. this thing i never expected from a company like blue star. i kept on calling them again and again but nothing happened much.

so after being harassed so much i would officially like to book a complaint with you to kindly help me in this matter and contact BLUE star for such negligence on their part.

I purchased a 2 ton Split A.C. on 2nd February 2007 in my firm Back Office Support Service having a serial no.SCC[protected] Model no.SCC 2410.

Sir, I choose the “ Blue Star” out of so many company, because Once I purchased a Deep Freezer from you and it was very good. I never needed after sales service. I thought whenever I buy next I will prefer “Blue Star”.

That time, I did not know that the Company of such high repute is having such horrible after sales service support.

I purchased the A.C. in the winters of 2007 but did not operate instant. In summers, when I started, there was no cooling. I called the service people, they examined and said “There is leakage of gas and it would be refilled”. They refilled and the A.C. started working.

I thought the problem is over, but next summer in 2008 the same thing happened again. I requested for change of machine. But I got the answer that “No sir problem is rectified and now everything is alright”. I trusted the service people.

But my very bad luck that in 2009 again the same thing happened to me and the same story. After so many calls the service person turned up and checked the machine. The problem was same ”Gas Leakage”.

In the year 2010 after passing half of summer, I could not operate my machine for single day. The service person came ten days back and said that they are putting pressure in the machine and check after two-three days. But after elapsing 10 days, I am still waiting for them.

What is my fault? Is this that I chose “Blue Star”. The company which only know, how to sell, but sorry to say how to retain their valuable clients. I who was strong believer of “Blue Star’ at one point of time now thinking how to get out of it.



I am attaching bill of purchase and all service report for your ready reference.



I hope, you will appreciate my problem and give some solution at your earliest.

I HAD REGISTERED ON THE 2ND OF MAY WITH THE BLUE STAR INSTALLATION SERVICE FOR MY WINDOW AC ,I PURCHASED ON THE SAME DAY. THE MODEL NO. IS 3WAE181YB AND THE COMPLAINT NO. IS[protected]. I HAVE BEEN CALLING THEM SINCE 2nd AND THESE GUYS HAVE JUST BEEN TRYING TO PASS TIME BY SAYING WE'LL CALL BACK WITH A CONFERENCE CALL WITH THE CONCERNED DEPARTMENT SOON. BUT THE CALL NEVER HAPPENED. AND WHENEVER I HAVE CALLED UP AGAIN THEY HAVE BEEN TELLING ME THE SAME. ITS GOING TO BE 48 HOURS AND STILL MY AC IS LYING IN ITS BOX.
A VERY VERY POOR JOB AND CLUELESS CALL CENTRE GUYS HAVE MADE THE PURCHASE MEANINGLESS.
WELL CAN ANYTHING BE DONE. I FEEL I DID A MISTAKE BY BUYING BLUE STAR.

I recently bought Blue Star 1.5 split AC and before I planned to get I confirmed with the dealer that installation will be done on that day itself. Dealer contacted someone and promised me that installation will be done on same day.

They logged a ticket and it came to some Franchisee in Chennai. I got call from 4 people stating that installation will be done on same day. But at End of the day none turned up.

I again spoke about this issue to customer care second day and I was told installation will be done and technician will visit in 1 hour and none turned back. Again I escalated the issue and I was told by Franchisee that technician will attend in 15 minutes and none turned back. Again I escalated the issue and technician said that the call has been transferred to someone else and he is not responsible. Again after escalation 1 technician called me and said that he is coming to install AC at my home at 9 PM in the night.

Though the customer care is working good the Franchisee is very worst in handling the installation. I promise if BLUE STAR have these kind of Franchisee sure the company will go down.

I am Balraj working as a Assistant Manager in a MNC IT company. I have bought a Blue Star AC on 24-Mar-2011 in Pondicherry. From 28-Mar-2011 the AC is not working and I have raised a complaint on 02-Apr-2011 & 04-Apr-2011. I have also contact the Blue star local service center and they have not responding properly. I am already having 2 AC with other company but I have not yet seen such a worst service in my life. Till now the problem was not rectified can you please look into this and do the needful.

I never imagined Bluestar India will provide such kind of worst service experience.
