[Resolved]  Exide Battery - Inva Queen 500 — Cheated by Battery dealer

Address:Chennai, Tamil Nadu

I feel that I have been cheated for my inverter battery (Exide Inva Queen 500) by my dealer RR Electricals (No 30 Dr. Ambedkar Salai, Rajarajeswari Nagar, Madipakkam, Chennai - 91). I was given an EL battery with my inverter that I had purchased from them on May 2, 2010. When I refused to take the EL battery as initially we had agreed for Inva series batteries (150 AH) he said that he is going to give a a Inva battery soon as it was not in his stock. He held back the invoice and Waranty card waiting for the replacement battery. After couple of weeks he gave me a InvaQueen 500 battery (Sl. No - 1K[protected]with warranty card) which did not last for even a week. I was not given an invoice after repeated asking though he claims that he has already given that to me at the time of purchase. On contacting Exide I came to know that the battery sold to me was 4 year old and the warranty card was tampered by the dealer. I am desparately looking for help in getting a workable in-warranty battery (with mentioned specification - Exide Inva series 15 AH) with a proper warranty card and invoice. My contact number - [protected]. Please get in touch if more details is required.

I purchgased the batery inva queen 500 + from M/s Bhat Sons trade centre M A Road Srinagar on 14.07.2010 vide bill no.750/14.7.2010 >the Batery is duly registered vide no.3qb029139.The batery from initial stage did not give proper out put, we complained to the dealer so many times, but he refered us to the service centre, the people at service centre while opening the batery found that its cells are initiallt damaged and not repraible.As such we approached the dealer, who denied to replace the same.Now we request you to kindly help us to srotout the problem or we may be forced to knock the door of consumar court.
I do agree with the complaint... We purchased the Battery from a dealer in Thiruchirapalli by Aug'2009 and got the backup complaint at 19th month, the same was sent to chennai for service by the dealer...and was rejected for the expiration of replacement warranty...But finally no use of talking to the dealers or company... Dealer's servicemen says its a failure model... utter waste of getting INVAQueen...
The said battery if found faulty will be replaced under warranty as per the parameters prescribed by Exide Ltd as it is already mentioned in the warranty card. An claim regarding the same will be settled as per the company norms, a thorough check up of the battery with a complete backup schedule will point out any abnormalities in the product. As far as the dealer is concerned the replacement battery will be provided once the Exide Service Centre declares the battery as faulty.

Bhatsons Trade Centre has an excellent customer service record and would help in speeding the check-up procedure asap. Inconvenience is highly regretted.
Kick him on his back. Please tell us, how do you know, warraty expiry? It will help others to be aware of these non-sense habbit of dealers.
