Dear Sir/ Ma'am,
I, Amritesh Mishra, a customer of Motorola Mobile Phones, am extremely dissatisfied by the after sales service provided by the company. Since I am a working bachelor (fresher), it is really inconvenient for me to keep running after the service centre and therefore I thought fit to write to you about the matter. I have explained my grievance as below:
Matter: Deficiency in service by Motorola Service Centre, Gurgaon.
I gave my mobile phone (Motorola-L9) for repair (in warranty) at M-47, Ground Floor, Market Scheme, Old DLF Colony, Sector- 14, Gurgaon on 28-May-2008. It had a battery backup problem, software error and the key pad lights were not functioning well. They ensured me that they will give it back by 30-May-2008. I requested them to issue me a stand by phone to which they refused. I called them on 31st May on their both land line number's (Ph:[protected]; 425 4159) several times, they did not pick up even once. I arranged mobile number of a personnel working there (Mob:[protected]. I called him and told my grievance and requested him to solve my problem at the earliest. He said that he will get back to me on 2nd June.
From 2nd June, 2008 till 9th June, 2008, i tried calling them on their both land line number's not less ten times each day. None of the calls were picked. I had to purchase a new phone because of such long delay and deficient service and also that I could not afford not to attend my official and family calls. During this period, i had a talk with the aforesaid person 3 – 4 times, who use to hang up even without listening to me properly. I got very irritated and on 9th June at around 5:30 pm, I proceeded to the Motorola Corporate Office, Sector- 14, Gurgaon, which is very close to the said service centre. There i met the receptionist and told him about my problem. He noted my name and mobile number and said that the concerned person will contact me shortly. I then moved to the said service centre.
After reaching there i called them on their land line numbers as well as on the aforesaid persons mobile number from inside the service centre. I noticed that the people working there were busy chatting amongst themselves and none was bothered to pick up calls. I asked them as to why aren't they picking up the call to which they replied they were busy. I told them that i was calling them from inside. They had no answer then. Just then I received a call from Mr Hitender (some official from Motorola Corporate Office). I explained him the entire issue and as asked by him handed the phone to some person there. All of them got a scold from the Corporate Office. I was asked to sit and within 5 minutes time, they got my phone. I switched it on and found that it was not reading sim card. They were more interested in delivering it in spite of the new problem that arose because of their fault. I refused to take the delivery and instructed them to repair it immediately. I was then asked to wait for 1 more day as the mother board of the phone got damaged and that they will replace it with a new one. I told them that they will call and inform me on the following day to come and collect it. They agreed to it.
Since 10th June, 2008 I have continuously kept calling them. There is no response yet. I have also called their corporate office (Ph: 0124 – 419 2000) severally. A complaint was also lodged with the Motorola Helpline[protected] on 12-June-2008, where i was assured that my problem will be resolved within 48 hours and they never turned up. Finally after informing them that i might proceed under against them, they delivered my phone on 16-June-2008. The phone is severely damaged internally. It is not reading my memory card and it is really difficult to insert the card in the slot. Moreover, the phone is still hanging and the keypad light is yet not glowing properly.
I really don't know what is being done for me. I am literally helpless.
Kindly look into the same at the earliest and do something for me.
Kind Regards,
Amritesh Mishra

I bought a Motorola handset L9 on 02nd, July 2008 against Retail Invoice No. AW-3048 from Anmol Watches, Chandigarh. Its EMI number is [protected].
18 days back i.e. on 09th of May, its starts giving problem like auto operate. I was not able either to make any call or receive. Without pressing any key software was auto operating.
I went to the Motorola Repair Centre at Chandigarh (Reddington Services, Sec-20D, Chandigarh).They took my handset against work order no. 1425 dated 09/05/2009 and said that handset will go to the company for repair and that they will inform me about the status within 15-20 days.
After 15 days when they didn't call me, i called them up to inquire about the status of the handset. They people said that ask after 2 days. I called them after 2 days than they said that ask after 2 days more. Then I called the Motorola Customer Support directly to Mr. Sabharwal then he told me that he will tell me the status within 48 hours but till date I haven’t received any call from him. Then after 2 days I called again Customer Support Mr. Sudesh, he told me that within a week you will receive your handset. Side by side I also made calls to Reddington service, Chandigarh for the status of the handset but they people always taking me in loop and didn’t give any positive response. Then I lodge a complaint against Reddington to Motorola Customer Support for their bad service and misbehaving with customer but you people also don’t take any action against them. Then I received a call from Reddington, Chandigarh on 25/05/2009 that my handset got repaired now I can collect. I visited their place and collected my handset. At that time handset was working properly for 10-15 min. Then I came back to my home. When I started to make a call to my friend then it starts giving same problem as earlier (Auto Operate).
I complained this issue to Motorola customer care to Mr. Shashank and requested for replacement and he told me that he is requesting the concerned department for my handset replacement.
Kindly replace my handset as its not possible for me to wait for more 20-25 days to get it repaired. As I am in marketing field so I can’t work without mobile. This is my request to kindly replace my handset as soon as possible. Otherwise, I will drag your authorized service center in Chandigarh to Consumer for harassment given to me. I wasted my lot of money on phone calls and petrol to visit their office many times. It was such a big harassment I have ever faced. Your service is very poor as compared to Nokia. Nokia is the BEST!!!
