Sony India Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir,

I have purchased Sony Ericsson Model J132 Mobile on date 25th Oct 2009 from Telephone Shoppee ( Aundh ) Pune.

From purchase date mobile having problems like as turns off randomly, switch off long time, charging problems and many more problems with mobile handset.

In first week of Feb 2010 i show the problems and give mobile for repair to Sony Ericsson Service Center in Pune, after repair of handset same problem start with in week of time.

Due to this automatic turns off i face many problems, my handset under warranty period ( due to hectic problem of mobile handset i request you please replace handset )

Please reply me on my email ID [protected]@gmail.com asap.

I had purchased a Sony Erricson J 105i ( IMEI number : [protected]) on 18 July 2010 from MOBILE STORE , Kerala. They showed me the demo there and it was working fine.. But unfortunately on the same day when i tried with another sim it was showing me error message "INSERT SIM"

As i am working in Bangalore i took the set to Shristi Services (Authorised Sony Erricson Dealers in Bangalore Phone number :[protected]) , they said that Sim PIN has been broken .. I wonder how this happened just by changing the sim... I am using Mobile from Past 10 years and never had such kind of experience.. If i Frequently change the sim and if it gets broke it has some meaning...But this is a BRAND NEW SET I BOUGHT.. HERE IT SHOWS THE QUALITY OF THE GREAT SONY ERRICSON BRAND

Anyway since i purchsed it i gave them to repair for which they told Warranty will not be covered (Since its PHYSICAL DAMAGE...)..Now today they gave me a call and said me that they changed the SIM PIN still its not working ... They are saying its MOTHER BOARD Problem and i have to change it spending approximately 4000 RS

So kindly suggest what should i do this with this set.. Is this your QUALITY POLICY... ?????

I had submitted approximately 6 months old Sony Yari (U100i) phone for service after its keypad started giving problems to the nearest Sony ericsson certified service center: RT Outsourcing Nehru Place New Delhi on 28th June 2010.
I was told that tentatively my phone will be ready in 2-5 days time by the service personal at MobileTech. It has now been 23 days and I have been informed it may take one week more. I have called the customer care of Sony Ericsson ([protected] and [protected]) on three ocassion's and each time was falsely promised that the phone would be ready by next week.
Numerous of my mails to the customer care ('questions.[protected]@support.sonyericsson.com') have received no attention from the company.

I have also noticed that similar is the case with other Yari (U100i) phones the company manufactures.
Can anything be done to make the company take notice of the inconveniences it is causing its customers?
Please suggest/ assist.

My complaint record with the company:
Phone: Yari (U100i)
Work Order number: SE310NPL12301
Complain ID: 87697310
Service center number: [protected] and [protected]

I bought Sony ericsson T715 mobile on 14th June, 2010 from Sony’s
authorized Showroom,(JLK Enterprises, CS-217,DT City Centre, DLF City,
M G Road, Gurgaon.PH[protected]. Mr. Rawat was the store incharge.

As soon as I started using it I started facing from problem in my set.
The voice started melting after 4-5 minutes, whether it’s the incoming
voice or the outgoing voice and also the memory card started giving
problem. It wasn’t storing any data.

Next day on 15th June, 2010 I went to Mr. Rawat and told him about the problem I was facing. But to my surprise he gave me a shocking answer saying I sold the phone, now if you are facing some problem, its your headache and when I told him that he has to take an action he gave me a vague answer saying I can't do anything about it as my salesman is on leave, so you come tomorrow.

I went to the store again on 16th June, 2010. This time Mr. Rawat
asked me to go the Service center and said that the problem I was
facing was a very small problem and would be solved easily at the
service center. I told him that I am not going to the service center
as I had bought the mobile a day back and I told him that either you
replace the set or get it repaired.

He said I can’t leave the store and started making stories. Then he
asked me to leave the set and told me that he’ll go to the service
center in 2-3 days whenever he gets time. I was shocked to hear his
answer.

I took my phone and went to the service center situated at 114,DLF
Central Arcade, DLF City-2, Mehrauli Gurgaon Road, Gurgaon.ph
no.[protected].


To my surprise the service center people were one step ahead, when I
was standing at the reception at 8:30 in the night, they switched off
the lights, then when I told them about the problem I was facing, they
said may be because of too much of construction happening in Gurgaon,

I would have been facing network problem, I clearly told them that the
voice starts melting not cracking and that too after few minutes of
talk. Then they took it and just upgraded the software and said that
it would be fine.

I went back and started using the set, but was still facing the same problem.

Then I went back to the service center and told them that It is still
not working properly. Then finally they took my cell and said that
they’ll send it to their Head Office in Chennai and it will take 10
days to come back.
The WORK ORDER no was SE310MPH10744.

When after 10 days my mobile didn’t come back I asked what is the
matter and they gave me the customer care no.[protected] and asked to me to talk to them.

I called the customer care no. and explained them the whole story.
They filled my complaint and gave me this COMPLAINT NO. 87741515.

Few days later the customer care people asked me to mail and file my
complaint again and I mailed the whole story on
questions.[protected]@support.sonyericsson.com

After a couple of day they called me on Sunday 4th June, 2010
referring my complaint. Then after two days I got a message from this
no.[protected].

And finally after 20 days I got my phone back that too in that same
condition. I went to Mr. Rawat again and told him the whole story, to
which he said I can't replace the set, its been a month and you should
have come back to me when it was taking too much time to get repaired.

After all this Mr. Rawat the store inchargeamde me talk to the Amit Bose some Sony head for north India who asked me to send him a mail explaining my problem. I did that and then Mr. Rawat said they had got a response and I need to submit the phone at the service center again.

I went to the serivice center again and this time they chaekced the phone and said there is no problem in the phone ana dgave it back to me. I told them the problem comes after using it for some time. They said we can't see any problem hence thya can't do anything about it.
On top of this Mr. Rawat told me that now the phone is fine and the matter is closed.

This is the kind of response a customer gets at the authorised Sony
showroom and Service center. I am very upset now and want a strict action to be taken and my phone to be replaced.

I request you to look into th matter and halp me.

I , JK Kaul, had purchased LCD 32" ( Sony Bravia) model KLV-32S550A IN5 from M/s AARCO ELECTRONICS (Sony Center) - Lajpat Ngr.- Delhi on 17th Oct'09 . Unfortunately it got out of order (Video Failure) on 8th July'10 & a complaint was booked with same daeler same day under Complaint ID 5582968
with an assurance from dealer that it will be rectified within 48 Hrs. But after 3 days when no Service Engr. turned up for repairs, I called back to dealer who in turn gave me contact no. of Sony Authorised Service Centre (M/S A.P.Network Sevices - New Rajdhani Enclave - Delhi) . After various attempts of contacting Service Centre we were fially sent Service Engr. on 11th Jul'10 who confirmed that the Panel of the LCD has gone out of order& it will have to be imported from Singapore which will take one week's time. After one week when we contacted Service Centre they had no idea about the delivery time of the reqiured part from Singapore. The only reply was that "we will inform you when it will be received" As the complaint still remains un-resolved for indinite time. Pls intervene & support.

Work Order # SE310ABH11817 followed by Complaint ID - 8781177
Adding to it, now, within 2 months of purchase the Touch Screen of X2 failed, my handset is with SE service since 7th July with assurance that it will be fixed within 2-3 days (unending till now). But, leave apart repairing of handset, Sony Ericsson is not providing the repairs nor giving any feedback neither escalating my complaint registerd with it.

Its Support Center is rather acting as a barrier as it is neither providing me any solution nor allowing me beyond so that I can speak to responsible authority in the company.

Please Help!

RESPECTED SIR/MADAM

I PURCHASED A SONY ERICSSON HANDSET (MODEL NO.: G900; IMEI: [protected]) ON 25TH DECEMBER, 2009 FROM HOTSPOT RETAIL SHOP WHICH IS SITUATED IN PITAM PURA , FOR RS. 10700.
FROM THE VERY FIRST WEEK I STARTED FACING SOME PROBLEMS LIKE SLOW PROCESSING, HANGING AND SOMETIMES TOUCH SCREEN NOT WORKING ETC.
I WENT TO THE SONY ERICSSON SERVICE CENTER AND COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME.
THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE IS SOME SOFTWARE PROBLEM AND IT WOULD BE FIXED BY UPDATING THE SOFTWARE AND THEY UPDATED THE SOFTWARE.
FOR FIRST FEW DAYS AFTER THE UPDATION, HANDSET WORKED FINE BUT IT AGAIN STARTED SHOWING THE SAME PROBLEMS.
I VISITED THE SERVICE CENTER AGAIN AND AGAIN THEY UPDATED THE SOFTWARE.
THIS EXERCISE CONTINUED TILL MAY AND BY MAY I VISITED THE SERVICE CENTER FOR 7 TO 8 TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEMS BUT I DID NOT GET ANY CONFIRMED SOLUTION.
THEN IN JUNE 2ND WEEK I WENT AGAIN TO SONY ERICSSON SERVICE CENTER (NAMED VAISHNAVI SERVICES ROHINI) AND I ASKED THEM TO SEND MY HANDSET TO THE COMPANY FOR REPAIRS. THEY TOOK MY HANDSET AND ASKED TO TO COME AFTER A WEEK TO COLLECT IT.
(WORK ORDER NO.: SE310VSR11274)
AFTER A WEEK I COLLECTED MY HANDSET AND I WAS TOLD BY THE PEOPLE AT SERVICE CENTER THAT HANDSET HAS BEEN REPAIRED AND TOUCH AND DISPLAY PANEL HAS BEEN CHANGED THOUGH I DID NOT FIND THEM CHANGED, RATHER I FOUND SOME SCRATCH LIKE MARKS ON INNER SIDE OF SCREEN AND TOUCH ALSO DID NOT WORK PROPERLY.
ON COMPLAINING , I WAS TOLD TO USE IT FOR A WEEK AND THEN TO SUBMIT IT AGAIN.
I DID THE SAME, AND AGAIN SUBMITTED IT ON 26TH JUNE, 2010.
(2ND WORK ORDER NO.: SE310VSR11454)
I RECIEVED MY HANDSET ON 8TH JULY,2010 AND DID NOT FOUND IT REPAIED. AND NOW EVEN ITS KEYPAD IS NOT WORKING AS WELL.
I CALLED SONY ERICSSON CUSTOMER CARE ALSO BUT NO ONE HELPED ME THERE TOO.
NOW THE CONDITION OF MY HANDSET IS THAT IT WORKS ON ITS ON WISH.
MY PROBLEM IS STILL NOT RESOLVED. AND I M UNHAPPY WITH THIS HANDSET AS WELL AS THE SO CALLED SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE COMPANY.
I M VERY UPSET AND TENSE.
I WANT THE REIMBURSEMENT (EITHER IN THE FORM OF MONEY OR A NEW HANDSET WITH SAME FEATURES OR PRICE RANGE) AND I WANT AN ACTION TO BE TAKEN AT THE EARLIEST.

HOPE TO GET A RESPONSE AT THE EARLIEST

I submitted my mobile W595 at Sony Ericsson service centre (Kaiser telecom) on 21st June, 2010. The peice is under warrnaty. Since then, they are telling me that the parts are not available and expected delivery is 2-3 days. Sony ericsson does not have a policy of providing standby handeset.
Emails to their complaint center yeild no response. (seems they do not check their emails . Useless service provided. Complaints to the call centre give a complaint no. Further they inform that a response will be available afetr 48 hours. This 48 hours is supposed to @ 12 hrs/ day (I doubt).

I was gifted by my relative, a Sony TV Model No. SW21M83 (S. No. 6240948) that was purchased on dated[protected]. We have valid warranty card with the purchase date mention on it. As this was a gift so we don't have bill for the same.

Now there is a minor problem in the TV that the speakers are not sometimes working properly whereas woofer is working fine. We lodged a complaint to Sony India on date[protected] with complaint no. 5548555. The executive from "Raj Service Centre, Karnal (Haryana) Visited at our site and took out a card for repair at his site and committed to be fitted back with in the next day. There after I didn't get any response from Sony regarding the same. After one week when I followed up I came to know that this is not covered in warranty as we didn't have invoice. Then I talked to Mr. Viraj (Head of Raj Service Centre, Karnal) and Mr. Sumit Saini (Manager Sony Service Centre Gurgaon) and tried to explain that the warranty card is equally valid document and is accepted by every company and has been accepted by LG and Samsung of which we have other products.

I am still not able to come out of the shock of the way Mr. Saini responded. His word-to-word response was "I don't know about others but this is our style of working and in future, you may buy their products for better services". He clearly indicated that I can do whatever I want, but he will not consider the warranty. He also refused to give me the email address and the contacts of the higher authorities.

From the above incident and response, it looks that Sony is having enough revenues and is no more bothered about the customer satisfaction or the above person intentionally wants to spoil Sony's image. But in today's competitive market, I doubt this type of pathetic attitude can sustain for a longer period and can definitely hit any giant and reputed company.

This is not the only product of Sony I am using. I also have SONY Camcorder, Sony Camera's, Sony Music Systems, Sony TV from last ten years but didn't face any problem with that device. This is first time I used after sales services and faced this issue.

I could find only your contact on internet, so sending my concern to you. Can you please look into the matter or forward to the appropriate authority, as I am tired of following up with the service team and convincing about my situation.
Note: Its been more than 14 days now that my TV is lying in open condition.

Dear Sir,

I had purchased H- 55 model Sony camera bearing serial No. 8653371 from M/s Goldie Camera World Visakhapatnam ( Andhra Pradesh ) vide invoice No.485 date 08.05.2010, but from the date of purchase a black spot is visible on display screen as well as on the image print. I had brought to their notice from dt16.5.2010 and request has been logged as : 5315693, and I had earlier send the image copies by e mail to their good office on 19.5.2010. I am sending the images now. As per their instruction I gave the camera for repair at Sony service centre to M/s Sudha Electronics, Visakhapatnam ( Andhra Pradesh) for repair ( vide job card No. VS 67984 dt. 14.6.2010 ). The engineer of service centre said it is a manufacturing defect of lens so the lens is to be changed and it require 7 days for replacement of the said lens, but till date the camera has not been repaired.
I had paid for a new and good condition camera but the camera is defect from the date of purchase, in spite of paying a heavy amount for the camera I am unable to use it, why should I suffer for their manufacturing defect, so I request to give me a new camera instead of repairing the defect one.
I am staying at Rayagada ( Orissa ) 210 K.M away from Vishakapatnam it’s not possible to go several times for a camera. Please instruct the Sony India /dealer to replace with a new camera, as it is 2 months passed, hope a justified and early reply.
Thanking you.
Yours Sincerely,

(V.Ramesh Kumar)

I just want to alert you about the Sony W595 handsets.Please don't buy a SONY ERICSSON HANDSET EVER specially w595. It has got a very delicate keypad and slider LCD screen which gets broke off after every now and then. The body of this handset is not worth spending 13K bucks. Moreover the service which this company provides is awful.

I bought this handset in july 2009. Within 1 yr I need to replace its LCD once, slider spring once and now having prob with its keypad. God knows which type of testing they had done. Sony ericsson service centre is charging 1650 bucks for repairing it.

My advice to the management of SONY ERICSSON is please stop fooling people buy selling such type of handsets.
And open service center where customer can easily go there. not in outskirt area.

I have purchased C510 mobile from HotSpot Retails Ltd (c-134/B Sectore-61 Noida 201301,UP).After 3months i was facing the problem in the display, screen is divided into two parts then i visited the Sony authorized center for the problem that they were said me that mobile software is not working properly so we need to update mobile software, they updated and problem was resolved for few days. but again we are facing same problem
so we again visit to Sony authorized service center in Noida(Neeru Enterprises, P-21,
KFC Basement, Sector-18,Noida).my work order number is SE[protected] and My Phone is in Warranty period .
they took 100/- rupees from me for service and said we inform you total charges required
to repair your phone. So they called me and Service center people are saying that you have to pay 1950/-Rupees
to get it repaired .

Please help us.

Dear Sir,

I and my collegues have purchased your Sonyerisson mobile model W205 each one. When we purchased, the shopkeeper told that this mobile is having GPRS facility and it can be connected with PC with suitable PC suite using USB cable. We downloaded the PC suite from internet and we bought the recommended USB cable DCU-45 also. We downloaded the dialup facility from our Airtel network. When we connect this mobile to computer using USB cable, the display will be : "File transfer". It has not changed to phone mode to work as modem. We took this mobiles to the nearest service center, Krishna Cell service,Erode and they told that this mobile doest not have the facility to work as modem. We cannot use this mobile as modem using PC-suite. We shocked by hearing this statement. Because we bought the 2 nos of this model for browsing the internet using GPRS as well as with PC suite.

1. can we use this model as Modem in PC with suitable pc-suite?
2. If can, what is it pc-suite software?
3. And what should we change in the mobile setting?
