Dear Sir,
I am constrained to put before you about your god damn products, defaulting guarantees and your very bad services.
My complaint no is:[protected]).Your product i purchasedis elena washing machine dayed 1/3/2007.
I tried from pillar to post and all your telephone numbers given to me.Nobody ever cared to help me to get my machine repaired and never told me time in which this can be repaired.It seems that your staff is impossible.
In the name of god, I request you to save on curses of defrauded clients like me

IFB - Washing Machine — poor service after AMC

To,
G. Dasgupta
President & CEO

I have a Senator model washine machine.
Last year in the month of December it wasn't working properly.A personal attended and then claimed that its heater isn't working and asked us to take AMC contract.And told that after taking this contract we will change the heater and then it will work properly.And he told us to complaint after 15 days(don't know wht was the reason of saying so).We did in this manner thinking that its service is poper.
Then we complaint a technitian turned up and told there's a wireing problem.We were amazed to hear that.But he rectified it.
After few days it stopped working again(heater stopped working).
Again some technitian turned up.And the same process is repeating till date.we have given almost handfull of complaints and none of the technitians is rectifying the problems.Its almost 3 months now and none of them are rectifying it.Though we were told in the starting that heater is not working properly, and we keep telling them that change the heater but they aren't.
And the technicians are coming from Ramantapur, Hyderabad center.
Can you please tell us what is the problem behind there ill response.And what we are feeling is that after taking AMC technicians aren't responding properly.They were but actually resposnding properly before.
We were ready to pay the money for the part which wasn't working properly before but he forced us and convinced us so much that we couldn't stop ourselves from taking AMC.
Now we are expecting a positive response after this mail.

Thanking you,

IFB/washing machine — Poor AMC service

I own IFB Washing machine for more than 12 years and have been having AMC since then. Recently the machine encountered some loud noise when in dry mode. I had registered a complain (Compliant No: 2852177) on 24th March 2009. The concerned service personel who attended the complaint said that the bearing needs to be replaced and a technical guy will attend the same. The next day the technical guy came and after checking the machine told that the internal drum also needs to be replaced. He came the following day with a new drum and replaced the drum in the machine. After starting the machine water started leaking from inside. The technical guy after much struggle told that the outer drum also needs to be replaced and he will replace the same the next day, but he did not turn up. On 29th March 2009 he came and replaced the outer drum also, but this still did not solve the problem as water was still leaking from the machine. He suggested that the new drum which he has got is also faulty and he will get a new drum again and fix it. From then on neither he or some other personel turn up to fix the problem. I called up your customer service care centre and was shocked to know that the complain is closed without being correctly resolved. The customer care personel registered a new complain (Complain No: 2875976, Date: March 31st 2009) and also gave me the number of the service manager in chennai (Mr.Guna - [protected]) and told to call him. I had called the said number and spoke to the service manager and he assured to get the machine fixed, but again the person attending the complain told that the technical person needs to sort this. Till today no one has turned up to solve the complain. I don't understand why you have such in-efficient people and what is the use of a AMC when I am unable to use the washing machine for more than 10 days. I request you to take strong action on the concerned people at IFB Service people in Chennaii and also request you'll to resolve my issue as soon as possible.

IFB — Poor Service on AMC

I had taken a full year AMC for digital IFB wsahing machine. The machine developed some fault on 20.09.09. Complaint was registered. Service personnel came on 21.09.09. Inspected the machine and told that some parts i.e power board and display etc. have to be replaced and changed. However till date the parts have not been changed inspite of several requests/complaints on customer care & Mr. Kashyap [protected]. Hope the IFB service personnel keep a note of this and take necessary corrective measures so that the functioning of the franchise service centre is improved.

IFB — Unsatisfactory service in AMC

Sub: Unsatisfactory service in AMC
Ref: Customer Id:1891930 Complain No: 5380543 Dt 6/11/10
Dear sir,
Since last one year neither my Washing machine ( IFB Eleena Model) working perfectly nor the service personnel are able to make it OK. Till date they have replaced motor & tub (Both outer & inner) twice. But since last one month, till today the machine is not working. After repeatedly failure of motor the service personals are showing their helplessness as they are telling that almost all new motors are failing!!!. The service personnel even are denying to give the service report after carrying out the maintenance work (even after motor / tub replacement), where we are also signing. It is really a regretful thing for such a high branded & internationally famed Company such as IFB. Given a preference.
IT IS SURE THAT I SHALL NEVER PURCHASE ANY ITEM OF IFB , NEITHER I SHALL RECCOMEND TO MY COLLEAGES/RELATIVES.
A few Suggestions:
1) The complain should be attended timely , preferably within 24-48 hours maximum for AMC .
2) THE IFB should monitor all the online complain after proper acknowledgement in return mail. Till date although I have put 3 online complain, but I didn't received any return mail / nor any complain nos etc.
3) Top level management like state in charge are also showing their helplessness which shows very poor image of IFB. (I am particularly speaking for the ORISSA counterpart.) They should be strengthened.

It is further requested to kindly look in to the above and acknowledge with timely & appropriate corrective action plan in return mail.

IFB WASHING MACHINE — BEWARE - Purchaser of NEW IFB WMachine

Prospective Buyers of IFB Washing machine,my sincere advice is that please do purchase IFB products. Once you pay your money for the product, then you are at the mercy of their ASC (Authorised Service Centre) for Installation, warranty complaints and post warranty complaints.

You need to spend your money on the product, accessories, and AMC. Even if you are willing to spend money, the treatment meted out to customers by their AMCs are really pathetic. You cannot contact any of IFB officials or ASC officials. Your only point of contact would be the Toll Free Number wherein they always say sorry, take your complaint, give you a complaint number and close the complaint the next day meticulously in their system even without verifying whether the complaint has been actually attended to.

Still you want to buy IFB washing machine, always keep blood pressure tablets by your side.

i have a similar model and a similar complaint .am based at coimbatore and am in the amc period but despite repeated calls for over 6 months nobody has bothered to call back let alone come over and check the machine .2 years back one of the company engineers had come over for a check and replaced the original part by a faulty part [this he did in a number of places for which he was subsequently fired }, following which all over troubles started .i wonder why we ever bought this machine because we have been only handwashing our clothes ...pl do not buy ifb machines !

Product

Worst ever company for service. Am tired of calling the customer care service. No one's responding. Even if they attend the call, no one's coming for servicing the washing machine. Please do not buy an IFB washing machine. Worst service. Worst customer care.

Washing machine not accepting spin command

The machine is not accepting the command of spin since 3 days and the complaint made to the customer care center also remains unanswered .. So we request you to please take the necessary action as soon as possible..


Thankyou
