[Resolved]  IFB Washing Machine — Timer problem

I bought ifb washing machine (Executive ellite) here in varanasi, 3 years back, i encountered the problem after using it for about 13-14 months, the timer was not working, so during the washing period, the machine does not rotated,
Since it was still under warranty, the faulty timer was replaced (Approx cost 2300 rs.) free of cost.

Now again after the replacement, the machine worked fine for another 18 months, then again i am encountering the same problem. It is the timer again.

Now is there some design fault in that timer? Or is the company not sending the right spare parts to our part of the country? Its my feeling that my decision to buy ifb washing machine was wrong.
Cause the same part needs to be replaced every 14-18 months.!!!

IFB — IFB washing machine problem

IFB — WASHING MACHINE SERVICE RELATED ISSUES

This should be noted as a super complaint. We have registered a complaint with your call center since last 6 weeks. Constant following up by my wife mrs rashmi singh but no avail. Unresponsive and unresponsible can sum it up that too when we have recently renewed our amc with ifb. We are without a machine for the above period as we need to get clothes hand washed. Why do ifb sell amc when they cannot service. Everytime you call the contact center they say they dont have parts, cant be an excuse for a running product where you are actively selling amc. The display has not been working therefore rendering the washing machine un-operatable. I am beginning to regret buying an ifb just on account of endless follow up one needs to do to get things fixed.

If this does not resolve very soon i will have no choice but to see the next stage of escalation.
You are lucky that timer has to be repaced in 14 months. I am being forced to replace the timer every 3 months. I have already replaced the timer 3 times and the timer has again stopped working.
Today we replaced the timer it costed 2400 including the service charges by no ifb technician. Ifb elena model, the spinner stopped working in the 4th year. Ifb wash quality is not good but the body is solid exactly reverse for whirlpool my second machine.

No use with ifb machine.. It takes 2hrs to complete the washing process for every single program even everything is perfectly connected. Why are these many programs in washing machine when it is taking same time for all those programs. If it is not fixed the product will be utterflop in future.

I never knew that IFB parts would be so expensive after the expiry of warranty. IFB does not disclose the price of its parts and warranty on replaced parts. I called their customer service to find out the price of the parts and warranty and they told me that they don't have it. They advised me to call their National Head Retail to find out the price of parts.
