[Resolved]  IFB / Microwave — Poor Service and false commitment

I bought IFB Microwave 2 years back. In September'08 it became non operational. I called up customer care and they gave me some ticket number twice during last 3 months. As on this moment, no one has cared to contact us again. Any how I found one contact number and he told me that the estimate of 3000/-, which really shocked me. A product of 10000/- has a maintenance of 3000/- within 2 years!!! I am at the way where neither I get it repaired nor sell it off as there is no one to buy it. In short, IFB is not at all a reliable brand to use. For further cross check, the ticket number were given to me are

Dear Customer Executive Head,

I bought IFB 17 PG 1S Microwave, Serial No- IFB 2508/01/11788 on 17th June 2008. Nobody had came for the demonstration of the product till date. And from day 1 one haulling sound was coming through it, then I had lodge a complain against the same Complain No- 2367058, Dated:- 31.10.08 at 11.35 a.m & I got the commitment to resolve my problem with in 48 hrs. After 15-20 days of lodging the complain, one mechanic came with wrong part called Megatone and it doesn’t fit in to our product. Then after 1 week another mechanic came with right part, but he was not knowing who to fit it. And again we called up cutomer care today in the morning they said nobody had informed them for the same.
Is this your way to serve the customers. You was so promising when we purchase the microwave from you & now you are not responding to our quires. In short, IFB is not at all a reliable brand to use. If you want your customers to be a regular customer, kingly get the servicing done at the earliest.

IFB MICROWAVE — Not working & Poor Service

Our microwave oven got spoilt about 6 months ago. We were asked to contact customer care and the routed the complaint to an outsourced agency.
- After 4 weeks of followup a technician finally came home. Not only was he rude but he was not happy that we asked for his ID card either. He opened the oven and said a part was to be replaced and he will come in 24 hours.
- The 24 hours ended up in 3 weeks. He finally came and to beat it with the wrong part. He again went and appeared after 1 week and replaced the part.
- This costed us around Rs.2500.
- After using it for 4 days it again got spoilt and there was a huge spark and smoke from the oven.
- Then we again followed up and got the part replaced, this took another month, we were asked to pay again, but we did not.
- Again after a few days there were sparks and smoke, and now the machine will work only for 3 minutes. Then it needs to be put off for 10 minutes and then again it works for 3 minutes.
- It has been 2 months since we complained, no one cares.

I wish this company goes down the drain. When we call them, they say call customer care, which is an outsourced firm and they just dont care. PLEASE NEVER BUY IFB PRODUCTS IN BANGALORE, THE SERVICE IS OUTSOURCED AND RESPONSE IS EXTREMELY POOR. I finally tried to reach someone in the company, but the call never gets connected beyond the reception.

i had purchased IFB microwave on 15th october 2008 and it stopped working first on 5th feb 2010 and the complaint was registered with the call center and the complaint no given was 4113297 which ultimately got repaired after paying Rs250 for fuse and again it has failed on 27th Sept2010 and this time the call was attended after 12 days by a mechanic who gave me an estimate of Rs3000/- what a ridiculus stuff for a product of Rs12000/- see the erroneous expenses so my take on IFB is In Failures se Bachna IFB
my IFB microwave is not working from past 20days. I made a complaint at the complaint number of the IFB. the executive promised that the engg would visit within 24hours to see the problem and correct it.
the engg. did visit with the required part which costed 2500rs. He tried to replace the part. As he switched it on the microwave it started sparking. He said that he will return the next day, nd took out the part he replaced. he never returned back. Its 15days now.
Despite repetitive complaints there has been no action taken by the company.

IFB / Microwave — Delay in replacement

Dear Sir, Date Sept 8, 2011

We have purchased Microwave Microwave/IFB/20SC-2 on April 2, 2011. We are totally dissatisfied with your services; our microwave broke down on Aug 28, 2011 and repaired temporarily in after noon (your mechanic told us that inside wire is loose) and worked for few hours on same day in evening; and stopped working from next day morning. We called again to your service mechanic on Aug 29, 2011 & he visited our home on Sept 3, 2011 and told us that Magnetron is to be replaced. Hence our Microwave is not working from Aug 28, 2011 practically. We have made phone calls to your service center, but their behavior as well as replies is rude vogue till to day morning. We have purchased from M/s Kulkarni Brothers Dadar also informed them about behavior of M/s Elite Services. Now we request you to replace our newly purchased Microwave at earliest.

Really IFB machines are not reliable as their Service is very very worst. Once you brought their product, then you are in a trap
