sony snap shot camera — demo

i have purched sony snap shot camera from hans electronics camp pune on[protected] from that day
any one of the dealer or company has not contact us for newly purchased camera for demo.
i didn't know the co.responsilbility is over after the product is sale.

I bought a Home theatre for 30000 and after 6 months it is not working. After going around to customer care for 2 months they said it would cost around 27000 to repair the HT. Can u believe this? It’s seriously my big mistake to purchase Sony product. I’m always frustrated because of Sony HT. No thanks to Sony.

I have purchased Sony Video Player – Model No. NWZ-E435F/E436F/E438F on 20th Feb, 2008 through my friend in US (now he is in UK). See the below attached mail for the purchase details in US. The player worked previously well and good and I used to charge via system USB cable. That cable too came along with the product. Now when I connect the USB cable it displays message as “USB device cannot be recognized”. So its not all detected and wont charge at all… I tried resetting the player also, but its not working…I directly went and asked the SONY customer service centre in Adayar, Chennai about this issue. They replied that the main board has gone and I have to replace the board for Rs 4000. For this price of repairing, I can buy a new one.

This is to make it to your kind attention that either replace my SONY video player with the new one or give back my money.

Thank you,

WHERE I SHOULD COMPLAIN FURTHER IF A PROBLEM COULD NOT BE SOLVED
i have contacted local sony service station for this but no satisfactory answer
now i want the whole replacement of the lcd
what i should do

SONY DVD RW, DVD/CD ROM, it works for 6 - 7 months correctly with no issues, maximum of 10 months, then is stats the problems. I have got writing problems, i always use sony disks to write Datas. When we go the dealer shops to ask about the services of sony, they will say sony servicing are too bad, if you got the problem within the warrenty period then they will look. Otherwise they wont!!! My SONY DVD RW, DVD/CD ROM is only 18 months old. Now onwards i suggest to every one, not to buy SONY DVD RW, DVD/CD ROM. They only got a good brand names, the other things are really bad. Buy some other burnner. If you ask to the dealers also, they will say Sony DVD RW, DVD/CD ROM is good, but buy other other DVD RW, DVD/CD ROM thats good for you. What is this means?

Uneducated Executives in SONY

This happened in October-2009 (Diwali Time). When I purchased a High End digital camera (DSC-HX1) from SONY World Shipra Mall, Indira Puram Ghaziabad, the executives in the showroom promise me for a demonstration on the Digital Camera on the very next day.
Even I got the call from the SONY that we will provide you the demonstration on the DSC-HX1 (after two day of purchase), but which never really happens.

When i send a mail to the customer care, i got an acknowledgment mail after one day and they were saying that we don't provide demonstration on digital cameras and i also got an call from customer care[protected] and the executives was not interested to listen to my problem.
The behavior of executive was so rude like it seems that they have never attend any KINTER GARTEN and talk like an illiterate one.SONY is spending so much money for promoting its products, making ads with highly paid Models, i don't know why don't they hire some educated customer care executives who have manners, ethics, etiquettes, patience to talk to their valued customers.

I purchased DSC-HX1 camera, SONY was no way near to compromise on the price and I haven’t got discount of a single rupees and spend INR 29800 but everybody assures me that SONY neither compromise on price nor on Services, but now is totally is a different story.

So being a valued customer it is really a harsh experience for and I never recommend anybody for SONY as there are other players in the market which provides very good services unlike SONY and with reasonable price.

Dear Sir,

This is in connection to my complain no.[protected],[protected] and several telephonic conversation.

Let me make clear the following few things.


I purchased a Sony 5.1 system id no SAID 5000 ME 19 serial no 330699 on 05.03.20111.

It develpoed a problem on 03.04.2011 & it did notwork.

I enquired through your site about availability of service center. A mail received by me on 04.04.2011 stating that there is no service center in SAMBALPUR(ODISHA)..

Then I received a call from your Customer Care Center on 05.04.2011. They advised me to bring the product to Rourkela or Bhubaneswar.

Anoyed with the service I took up the matter with the vendor. To my utter surprise my vendor confirmed me that ther is a service center is Sambalpur. He took the product and deposited it with M/S. Balaji Service, Sambalpur on 06.04.2011.The Service Center told me that the AMP BOARD TO be replaced.

After a lot of follow up and calls I could get my system on 10.05.2011 vide job no WS[protected].

I again made a mail to check the authenticity of the service center on 10.05.2011. and warranty to be extended by the period As the product was there in service center for more than a month.

I received a call on the same date with two cotradictory message.
a) There is no service center at Sambalpur.
b) The job no is a valid Sony Job no.
&
c) The warranty will not be extended.

I then argue can a service center keep a product as long as they wish. unfortunately the fellow who was making the call told me that service center can keep it for any period. Again when I insisted about the authenticity of the service center he told me that they will make me a call. Since I was verry much annoyed with the quality of service by such a big brand I even told him not to disturb me on my phone instead mail me. So that I can show it in consumer court.


Today i.e. on 11.05.2011 again I received a call from the same person. This time he confirm that there is a service center named Balaji Serivce in Sambalpur. But erogantly shows his inability to extend the waranty period. When I asked him contact no of higher official he handed over me the same telephone no from which he made the call.

I am extremely sorry to mention here that such a poor standard of service from such a huge organisation is mentained. I would like to mention here that if my case is not properly dealt with I will be forced to take shelter of Consumer Court.
