Samsung India Complaints & Reviews

I have purchased Samsung C170 in September 2008 and within four months; its charger socket was damaged. The Samsung People gave me bad run around before repairing my mobile under warranty. I got it repaired in January. To my surprise, the phone's charger socket got damaged again in March, within two months of the repair work done on the phone. I gave it to repairing through Planet M as I have purchased the phone from there. For, first three weeks, Samsung people told that the charger socket is not available with them so they will repair it once they receive the socket. Now, the worst part comes here that after keeping my mobile for more than a month, they denied performing warranty repair saying that the mobile has the physical damage. The thing here I don't understand is that if there was a physical damage done to phone, does it take month's time to identify it or it was simply a excuse given to cover up their faulty product as they don't want to take a blame of producing defective product. I can say that Samsung C170 is the product with the slight defect because I have this information from an Insider who works for the company’s product. The person I am talking about is works for a very reputed company and I was informed that Samsung C170 has a very delicate Charger Socket and its socket got damaged very soon. The sales persons did not inform about it to customer as if they inform it then the product will not be sold. That is very wrong approach. Consumers are cheated because they are not informed about all the features and problems with the product. In addition, company is denying warranty repair to hide their manufacturing defect. I do not know whether there will be any action taken on this or not, but through this media I want to warn people that please do not buy Samsung C170 as its charger socket is very delicate and if its gets damaged company will not repair it even if it is under warranty. My phone had been useless in not more than 6months. I would suggest instead go for Nokia or any other crap phone but not this one.

Hi,

I have got a Samsung Color Television two years back. Within three days we have come to know that the PCB is having some problem.

Product Code
CTV [protected]

Sequence Number
CS21Z57MLUXXTL

Serial Number
07193ZAP601144W

Purchase Date
20070808



I made a complain the same moment when I came to know about it. My BP # is [protected].

After many days a service engineer came and inispected the things and said that the TV will be replaced in three days. They also said that the meanwhile standby will also be provided. I had put a request for change of the model itself as I am fed up with it and it is having repeated problems.

Its more than 30 days and still nothing is done. I have to call each day to remind them regarding the problem. Each call i have to waste more than 10 - 15 mins in each call.

On thursday (2nd July 2009) they promised me that both the thing will be done on monday (6th July 2009). Nothing was done.

What should I do? Its really fustrating to buy things from such manufacturer who doesnt provide good service.

I went for this product because of the brand. But I can definitely say that the company should provide better service of their products and timely resolution of customer complaint.

Please help me out in this regard.

I purchased a Samsung 1.5 TR split AC model AS18nbXTL on 17.5.08 from M/s Umang, Dibrugarh, Assam. At the time of purchase, they assured that after 6 months Samsung customer care will provide free servicing of the AC . But till date i.e. 13.7.09 nobody has turned up for servicing.

Hi,

Currently I am planning to file a case against samsung with consumer forum if my problem is not resolved ASAP based on the following details.

I have purchased a Samsung i710 mobile (IMEI no. [protected], Sl.No: R3TP53404X, and Charger No. 950FS) from Big C, Kukatpally, Hyderabad on 08-Sep-2008, Bill no. is SI/KPT/12804.

After purchase the mobile phone I haven't used this mobile properly even single day and till now I have given this mobile 7 times to service center for simple problem. Whenver I gave my mobile for a service, it is always lying with service or Big C for a minimum of 30 days without solving my problem.

After given 5 times for service, I have raised a complaint (Complaint No: [protected]) on 23-Apr-2009 with customer care. Even though nothing has happend and not resolved my problem. By seeing the in-appropiate response of customer care I have sent an email to support.[protected]@samsung.com on 28-April-2009 with the following details:

After getting lot of trouble and frustration I am sending this email to you for the required help.

A) Please find the below details for giving my mobile for service/repair

1) Before 09-Oct-2008:
- I gave my mobile at Big C, Kukatpally for the service (Problem: Battery charge is vanishing within less than 30 minutes of talk time, signal catching is very poor, and calls are automatically disconnecting during the call)
- I got my mobile back after 4 weeks and resolution for my problem as told by Big C is 're-installation of software'

2) During November 2008:
- Again I gave my mobile at Big C, Kukatpally for the service (Problem: is same as above)
- I got my mobile back after 4 weeks and resolution for my problem as told by Big C is 're-installation of software'

3) During December 2008 end or January 2009:
- Again I gave my mobile at Big C, Kukatpally for the service (Problem: is same as above)
- I got my mobile back after 4 weeks and resolution for my problem as told by Big C is 're-installation of software'

4) On 05-Feb-2009:
- Again I gave my mobile at Big C, Kukatpally for the service (Problem: is same as above). This time samsung service person has taken my mobile (The person name is Rohit and contact number is [protected])
- I got my mobile back after 9 weeks (i.e. on 13-Apr-2009) and resolution for my problem as told by Rohit (Samsung service representative) is 'mother board replacement'

5) On 14-Apr-2009:
- Again I gave my mobile at Big C, Kukatpally for the service (Problem: Touch screen is not working, signal catching is very poor, and calls are automatically disconnecting during the call). This time Samsung service person has taken my mobile (The person name is Rohit and contact number is [protected])
- As on today (28-Apr-2009) my mobile is with Samsung service only.

B) Please find the below details for the conversation between myself and Samsung

1) Registered a complaint with 'Samsung Customer care' on 23-Apr-2009 at around 4:15 PM (Complaint Number is [protected])
Note: No Samsung website is providing customer care service contact numbers
2) Based on the discussion with customer care, I have contacted Raghu (Samsung Andhra Pradesh service ASM, His contact number is [protected]) for the same after the above discussion with customer care. But not got expected output from him.
3) Again spoke to Customer care on 24-Apr-2009, but my problem is not resolved.
4) Again spoke with Customer care and Raghu on today (28-Apr-2009), still my problem is not resolved. Today I got the reply from Raghu that I will get my mobile on tomorrow (29-Apr-2009) from Big C, kukatpally. For this I will get a call from Raghu (till now I have never got a call from Big C or Samsung to collect my mobile after the service is completed). Here I have asked Raghu for extension of warranty of my mobile because of all these reasons. But he refused for that and has not given any guarantee for not getting the trouble in future.

C) Why I got frustration with Samsung mobiles and service

1) I am Samsung customer since 2004 and not faced any problem with Samsung at all
2) As mentioned above, I haven't used this mobile for atleast 3 weeks of time (actually I haven't used for a minimum of one week, but due to my time availability it took around 3 weeks of time to give for service)
3) Not getting proper solution for my problem from Big C or Customer care or Raghu (Andhra Pradesh ASM).
4) Finally my problem is not resolved

D) What I am Expecting

1) Actually after getting all these problems I have expected that, will get the new mobile from Samsung. But it does not happened
2) Expected some warrantee extension as almost my mobile is with Big C or Sumsung service center after I purchased the mobile from Big C.

Please do the needful and solve my problem ASAP as my problem is not resolved since Oct 2008 (purchased mobile on Sep 2008).

But nothing has done and even nobody is caring for customers.

Now my currently my mobile is with Samsung service center only and my recent last 2 work order numbers are EO05/300E09/01 on 30-May-09, WA[protected] on 27-Jun-09.

Thanks and Regards,

My samsung dvd player has been giving me problems since i bought it. Earlier it used to miss certan parts of movie being played. I then gave it to samsung service centre 3 times but the problem still persisted and lately my dvd player has stopped functioning. It has stopped recognizing any cd or dvd.
I just hate samsung for making such poor product and duping customers. I am not going to bur any samsung product ever.

i bought a washing maschine samsung in march this year and i noticed water leakage and rang up customer complaint cell on 9th of july it has been 12th of july no body has turned up hav clled up many times and now am disatisfied and am thinking why did i buy samsung product my complaint no is [protected] i am a dis satisfied customer and they domy hav their gms mail id on the site so tat we can complain

I am a resident of Mayur Vihar Phase I, Delhi, and brought an original Samsung DVD player in August 2008 from Neha Electronics, Mayur Vihar Phase 1, Main Market. The mentioned shop is an authorised dealer of Samsung products and my set comes with a one-year warranty from the company.
Within about four months of purchase, the DVD player developed a snag for the first time. The DVD player was unable to play any DVDs or CDs -- notably even brand new original ones. We filed a complaint with the given call centre number, and soon enough an enigineer came and did some fixing up. The player ran well for a few weeks before it broke down again.
This routine has happened five times already. The latest being in the first week of July 2009, when an engineer came to our place after the DVD player broke down for the fifth time and once again tinkered with the machine, promising in the end that he had fixed it. He even claimed to have changed some parts inside. This time, the machine ran for exactly four days before it konked off for the sixth time.
After the machine was fixed for the sixth time, We received a call from Samsung after a few days asking if the machine was working fine. When I said no, the caller promised to convey my complaint to 'concerned authorities'. Nothing has come out of it yet.
This is the first time I have bought a DVD player from Samsung and I am sure it is also the last. From a reputed company like Samsung, this was the last thing expected. Or is Samsung normally habituated to pulling such fraud by selling defective pieces to DVD consumers?
If these people has any concern for the consumer who fetch them their bread and butter, they would have had the decency to exchange the DVD set. A DVD player that malfunctions six times within the first year is, by ever yardstick, defective.
Is there a platform where I can take this up? Consumer Court, I am told, is too cumbersome a process and frankly nothing comes out of it.
Would be happy if you cvould guide.

This is to bring to your notice, a very bad experience in terms of the product as well as the customer service at Samsung.

I bought a Samsung made Air conditioner Model No. AW18ZKC from Sadana Electric Store, Latouche Road, Lucknow on April 17, 2009 vide Book/Serial No. / Invoice No. 4/181. The A.C. did not give out proper cooling. I informed my local service center on they told me that the Engineer will come 0n 23rd June, but there was no response from that side.At last i got ur costumer care no.i.e.30308282 and i called them and they gave my compliant no [protected] but again nothing done..then after three days i again called them and ur executive commited me that it will be done today only but again no one came to see the ac . On 27th June I again call at the same customer care no. but same thing happens no one turned out. Now I would like to request u to remove the problem occured in my ac otherwise i will be enforced to take legal action against everybody.
Expecting a positive reply from your end at the earliest.
