Dear Sir,

Sub : Malfunctioning of Aquaguard Booster Water Purifier.

While I convey my due honour to your good self, I apologize to express my utter displeasure to let you apprise of the mode of functioning of the Customer Service Centre, located at Guwahati which has exhibited a rare instance of gross negligence and indifferent attitude to rectify the faults detected in the water purifier, installed just a few months back. Of course, there are several such instances recorded in the website as far as the functioning of the said product o[censored]reka Forbes is concerned.

The machine was installed by push selling agents of the company against order No.197/ 018107 dated 28/9/2007 and started malfunctioning within a very short span of time which have been supplying contaminated water with odd smell, bitter taste accompanied with black sediments instead and just not consumable at all.

On complaint, the filter was inspected not less than five times in nine months and the service personnel came to the conclusion that the Filter Candle is responsible for the deficiencies and needs replacement but, instead, the candle was merely cleaned during their every visit. It is un-becoming on the part of a reputed Company.

Sir, with utter dismay I noticed that the filter candle, is of very shabby appearance, as if it served for not than three years while that of mine is of just 9 months old it has been hardened to its extreme and not capable of extract and supply the filtered water even with an adequate flow apart from contaminated smell and sediment. But, till the service personnel are indifferent and not feeling the indispensability of replacing the candle, in contrary they have been trying to let the purifier work in the same manner till the expiry of the stipulate Warranty Period, as so understood? can this sort of attitude be termed as so called Warranty ? I am scared about as to whether the purifier as a whole is an old and aged one and I was just made a goat of sacrifice, very shameful, indeed.

It was last attended on 29/7/08 and from the next day it has returned to its earlier stage. It is indeed harassing for me and apparently, their reluctance to redress my grievances stands substantiated. As a conclusive resort I have the honour to solicit your kind intervention so as to ensure that the purifier is rectified by any means if requires by replacement, forthwith, without applying the odd and mal-intention to work the machine in its defective status till the expiry of warranty, violating the warranty rules.

With sincere regards, Sir,

Sincerely yours,

Dea sirs,
On 08.02.06. I have purchased an AG Classic water purifier. Following the expiry of the free servicing period I opted to accept the annual maintenance contract scheme offfered by the company and everything was going on smoothly. But in the third quarter of 2008 when some maintenance was required, the service center requested for the renewal of the AMC first, accordingly I went to the service centre and paid Rs.800.00, as asked for, on 10.10.08.Yet afterwards, when I did not receive attention, I talked to the local Manager of the Forbes who informed me that they have discontinued authorisation of the said Franchisee and shifted to another firm. He does not know about the payment I made and if I want the service any more, that may be obtained from the new Franchisee on cash payment.
This is in my openion, is breach of trust and loss to me & my family members.
My address: College Road (North), SILCHAR-788 004.

Sir,
At the outset I would like to convey my New Year greetings.With due apology I do hereby regret to inform you of the poor response of your service providers based in Jorhat, Assam.After repeated calls from our side they would neither respond nor would attend calls to redress our grievance. An RO (Enhance)which was sold to us through the selling agents of Jorhat office has been asked to replace with "Reviva" as the earlier model's technical specifications is not supporting our water supply system. But to our utter displeasure the RO has been lying unused since July and your regional service providers has been turning deaf ear to our requests. this is for your kind information and necessary action. and if further negligence still continues from your side the matter will be pursued to your higher authorities.
