[Resolved]  IFB Senator 6kg Washing Machine — Serious defects from day one and no redressal

Address:Delhi

I refer to my complaint dated 18/02/2011 and subsequent visit of your agent Mr. Kuljit. Amongst other issues, my complaint is related to "selector buttons not working". While 2-3 buttons of the machine do not work, your rep stated that only one (main on/off button) will be replaced and that too is not in stock. I am still waiting for the same to arrive and would like all defective parts to be replaced. Please advise how long it will take??

I would also like to add that the machine purchased by me on 24/12/2010, was delivered at my residence in an open carton and had water in its pipes and the "Additives chamber" was also full of water. I was told by the person who came for installation that this was because of testing of machine in Godown. Till initial 3-4 uses water used to remain in "Additives chamber" which now gets totally drained out. I therefore suspect that a used and defective machine has been passed on to me and am finding your response very disappointing. Please take urgent action for complete redressal of all issues.

IFB 6 KG Senator — Bad product and worst service

I totally regret buying the 6 KG front loading Senator a IFB washing machine. Not only is the product not good quality - it has got spoilt 2 times within one year. The response to the complaint for repair is met with the most inefficiency I have encountered for any whitegoods product in the last couple of years. Inspite of repeaded calls and reminders, no one turns up after giving a time and one is just left waiting and waiting.

IFB Senator 6kg Washing Machine — No service, don't care attitude not bothered about the customer's valuable time

After lodgining the complaint and fixing the time with service guy I took a break from office to show him the problem. He opened the maichine quickly said that this will be done on Monday. (The day on which I took him was Saturday). I requested the service center to send techniian on Monday evening as that is a working day for me. They agreed. However the service centers of these branded prdocuts are not working on Sunday. On Monday morning when I called service center to reconfrim my appointment the lady on the phone behaved as thorugh she is not aware of my appointment and said that she will send the technicians based on the availability. Not knowing what to do I called Washing machine Clinic for service help and booked them to repair my machine. In the evening at 5:30pm one person from IFB service center called me to check if he can come immideatly. I told that I have cancelled the complaint as I have not received the proper response.

IFB SENATOR 6Kg Washing machine — The dryer is not functioning

I have purchased IFB 6 KG senetor automatic washing machine in 2008 with 2 years waranty and additional 2 years extra waranty. The machine is always problematic and the the office asks us for receipt numbers date etc. for extra warantee, indicating they do not even maintain proper records. The automatic waching machine does not dry the cloths as the spin does not work. Most immetured operators come for servicing and they beat the meachine from all sides to make the loose contact pins to make contact. This is definitely not expected from IFB company, whose reputation is at stake now.
