[Resolved]  Bosch Home India — washing machine - installed but not operational

Address:Bangalore Urban, Karnataka, 560105
Website:www.bosch-home.in/products/washers-dryers/washing-machines

The washing machine was purchased by me 7 days ago. It was delivered the next day. And the following evening a representative visited my home to install the washing machine. The service engineer sold unnecessary accessories at inflated prices and left after leaving verbal instructions on how to run the machine to the ladies present in the house.
The next morning when we tried to run the washing machine (On our own as instructed) it went into to error 17 and stopped function. We tried to call the same person again and he changed his tune and started saying that we reach out to the call center.
With no response we reached out to the retailer who again registered another complaint. It took 2 days for the next service engineer to turn up who now says that the placement of the washing machine is wrong.
Now suddenly the "suggestion is" to raise the level of the water tank or put in another pressure pump. Ofcourse it is still a suggestion and i have been left with advise to check with experts before trying the "pressure pump" option.
I am suddenly in the grasp of fly by night operators providing me well meaning "advice" but no solution.
Is this what the big name bosch stands for??? Can the company please get the problem addressed by a qualified service personnel from their company and rectify issue???

Hi,

Bosch reference number: [protected]. The installation team was from TeamG Solutions Pvt Ltd (Job Card No 7449) whose representative sold us up to Rs 1600 worth of accessories, came unprepared and asked us to suddenly arrange for a plumber in the evening on a Sunday (which should have been taken care of by yourselves) while repeatedly claiming that we should have taken care of the plumbing requirements. Does Bosch expect their consumers to be experts in plumbing??? However, the machine was never checked by engineer to see if it was even running after installation.

Firstly, I need need a qualified expert from Bosh to check and certify if the product has been installed correctly and then certify it is functioning normally.

Secondly, I need the extra Rs1000 charged by the installation engineer Mr Umesh Chindu (of TeamG Solutions) engaged by Bosch to be refunded for the items he sold amongst which was also a wire mesh which he passed off as a water softener. Also, please refund the plumbing charges of Rs 250 which we paid from our pocket trying to arrange this instantaneously for your unplanned and uninformed requirements from us - your customer.

I did not expect your representatives would con us.

Regards,

S Purkayastha
