Philips India — Problem In LCD Tv.

I bought a 32" LCD television on 05/04/2008 (MDL SRL NO CQA1A[protected])from Harmony house Kolkata. I brought the same to Haldia where I am staying. After installation I observed that an audio signal is not appearing in a Japanese channel. I immediately lodged a complaint in Philips internet complains box and paralally I asked local Philips service centre for the same. The same signal is easily appearing in Sonly 32" LCD tv which is parallay connected with my cable line. This incident has checked and inspected by Phillips technical people . They have tried to upgrade their software but failed . They have changed my TV set but the problem not resolved. I asked philips to to give me a compensation, becuase philips is not advertising that they have a technical problem regarding frequency, but they are not providing me the same. I also mailed them several times for clearing this issue but they are ignoring the same.
Hence I Compel to lodge the complain in open forum.

Dear Sir,

Sub : Philips LCD TV Sr. No. 42PF9541/98 – Work Order No. [protected] dated 18.08.2008


Since my above TV was not working properly (no picture display), after 15 days of making the complaint, your personnel came and collected the TV to repair at your workshop, under your above work order on 18th August 2008. However, I regret to inform you that despite two months have been elapsed, I have not heard anything further with regard to putting the TV back into normal working condition.

I shall be grateful if you could kindly let me know the exact status of the same per return.

Thanking you,

Yours sincerely,

Dear Sir,

We have purchased 2 LCD televisions from Vijay Sales dated 02/10/2007 for a Total Cost of Rs. 91900. One LCD is a 42 inch screen and the other is a 20 inch.

Whereas the 20 inch LCD is working fine, we have experienced a problem with the 42 inch LCD over the last 75 days which has not been redressed to our satisfaction to date.

Around the 1st February 2010 the 42 inch LCD lost the picture and went blank, even though the sound from the LCD was working fine. We got in touch with Mr. Dinesh Pol from the Philips service centre, who sent an engineer to repair it and then gave us an exhorbitant estimate of Rs. 27, 000 to complete the repairs since according to him the master circuit needed to be replaced. We then got in touch with Mr. Madaswamy, the regional manager of Philips for western India, who then reduced the amount for repairs to Rs. 15, 000. This was done on the 11/2/2010.

Then we were told that the master circuit was to come from the company and the same would be replaced and the LCD would then work fine. The master circuit was received on the 3/3/2010 (after waiting for 25 days), when the engineer came to fix it. However, with the new master circuit also the LCD did not work. Around the 9th March 2010 the LCD was collected and taken to the service center and we were promised that it would be repaired and returned in a weeks time. It is now 35 days since the LCD has been taken to the service center and 75 days since it has stopped functioning, but there is no resolution of our problem.

We have been without a TV for the last 75 days. The said LCD was purchased only 2 years back for an amount in excess of Rs. 90, 000 ( Bills have been sent to you earlier) and to have such a major problem within such a short time o[censored]sage definitely makes us doubt the quality and durability of this particular brand of Philips LCD, especially when we have other brand LCDs giving us a problem free run. It is not ethical that the company is charging us Rs. 15000 for repairs and is not being able to detect the exact problem and offering such delayed service. This clearly points to the fact that the problem with the LCD is unique and has arisen due to some faulty non durable parts at the time of manufacture.

We as a customer have been subjected to a substandard quality LCD, shoddy service and mental agony for the last 75 days. We had purchased Philips, thinking that it is a reputed brand and expected a quality and service to match the standards of other similar brands that are available in the market. However, we have been extremely disappointed with both the quality and service that we have received from the brand.

Having had to bear the brunt of this shoddy and delayed service and substandard quality, we do not feel it is ethical for the company to charge us a bill of Rs. 15, 000 for the repairs that the LCD is undergoing. On the contrary, looking at the unique nature of the fault that has arisen the company should offer a replacement for the said LCD, which within a short period of 2 years has stopped functioning.

We urge the company to immediately get in touch with us on our below mentioned numbers and redress our above problem at the company cost immediately, failing which we will be compelled to appeal to the consumer courts and make a pitch for the substandard quality and delayed service received from Philips.

Yours truly,

Malik Chamdawala

P.S. A detailed email has been sent to the service center on 24/3/2010, no reply has been received for it todate.
I bought 32" LCD television from Hypercity Mall in Malad in Mumbai three years back with great expectations of a trouble free working for at least five years. But problem of no video signals started after two and half years. signals comes sometimes and then goes off. One month ago, the video signal stopped totally and only sound comes.I complained to Philips customer care Centre.They directed me to their authorised service provider, Micro Service.A mechanic came from Micro inspected the set and promised to get PCB to rectify the set. It is more than one month now and Micro has failed to do any meaningful service.Micro staff never provides any clear answer about when they can get the part and when the mechanic will come.
It is extremely disappointing that a reputed company like Philips has such a deplorable service provider.How is that Philips management is not monitoring the kind of services provided by Micro. I am intending to move Consumer Redressal Forum shortly as I am convinced that Micro will not be able to rectify the set now.
When I had trouble with my 32" LCD TV, it went blank in May'2010, and it going to be 2 months since I had sent it for repairs to Philips Authorised service centre M/s.Universal Cochin, I thought it is only an isolated incident. But reading all these complaints I have convinced myself that Philips is the worst company you can deal with regardig the product quality and service.
The service centre manager is blaming Phil;ips Cochin for not providing the required spare part for the last 2 months. Even I am in touch with the Philips Cochin boses for the last one month but now they had stopped taking the phone on seeing my phone number.They are not giving a clear picture of what is happening and why they are not able to provide the spare part. Almost 2 weeks before they assured me that the spare has already been despatched from Chennai by courier and it will take only 10 minutes to fix it but still the service centre is waiting for the spare part.

CROMA-Philips LCD — Make for a make replacement

Extremely poor services. I have bought Phillips LCD which was under extended warranty (EW) and failed technically within the EW period. I lodged a complaint on 8th Jan'11 however even after 4 months there is no resolution to the issue. CROMA has offered me to pick up another product as the LCD could not be repaired and the similar models are obsolete, however, they do have only one model of the specification I have looked for and bought earlier (100Hz LCD) and they are offering me a 50 Hz and that too of a inferior brand with no choice at all. I am kind of being forced to buy the product whatever is available on the CROMA shelf rather than looking at the quality that too when they are deducting approx 4500/- as their charges (not sure what the charges are for). It's been horrendous for being CROMA customer. Post my complaint I was the one to follow up than the CROMA EW team and I had more updates than the senior managers at the EW. I was the one to provide them the latest updates which should have been the other way round. I have spent unaccounted time and money but have not received a resolution till May'11 and I am still not sure when thisw apathy is going to end and I will be able to enjoy watching TV again (here as of now LCD and money both are with CROMA EW). Warning: Avoid being CROMA customer unless it's an extreme emergency.

Philips 42 inch LCD TV — No response from the service centre for a defective TV

dear Sir/ Madam,

After repeatedly having a conversation with Philips Service Centre there has been no respite to my problem and all the team has done team does is come up with vague offers and ideas which are not acceptable to me, just to bring to your notice that i am still paying for a TV that i have not been able to watch for over a year, and this whole communication has been going back and forth like a tennis ball and I don't see any outcome. This clearly shows the commitment towards the clients and all that the company boasts of about client relations is just a farce. The people in the service centre have no respect for an individuals hard earned money. I can sadly say that this was the most disappointing and distasteful experience in my mind
and the mental stress that I have gone through.

It would be of great help if you could help me with this mess and guide me to take things forward.

Please advice

Philips India — Worst customer service

Worst customer service. I have made complaint about picture problem on OCT-27 Three times complaint has been and still no action has been taken 1st complaint no: PCHN[protected] 2nd complaint no: PCHN[protected] 3rd complaint no: PCHN[protected]
Dear Madam/Sir,

Greetings!

I am writing to lodge a strong complaint and dissatisfaction over the
way we have been treated by Philips' authorized service center
(Ruchika Services, 1010-A, Harinagar, Ashram, New Delhi-110014). We
booked a complaint (number PDEL[protected]) with your toll free number on
January 8, 2014 about the non-functioning of our TV. Some one from the
service center inspected the TV on January 9, 2014 and took away the
chassis to center for repair.

Despite our reminders on daily basis, they have not rectified the
problem and kept the chassis with them. One day they sent back the chassis saying
that it could not be repaired. When we asked them to fix that in TV,
they refused to do so. My wife refused to sign the paper and talked to
the in-charge of the service center. He assured that the problem would be
rectified and took back the chassis. Since then they have not returned
the chassis also. Last Friday the in-charge of the service center
informed that the problem had been sorted out and he would send the
engineer next day to install the chassis in the TV. However, nobody has
come since then. They are not picking up our phone calls also.

We feel grossly harassed and cheated by the Philips authorized center.
Does Philip ensure no quality in appointing the right agencies as
service center who could extend quality services to the customers and do
not fool them. May I request you to intervene in this matter and ask
the service center to return my chassis if it cannot repair it. I am
hugely disappointed and shocked with this treatment coming from Philips
appointed service center.

May I request you to intervene and let me know if Philips can repair my
TV. If not, please do instruct the service center to return my chassis.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanking you,

Alok Vajpeyi
