Sony India Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir,

After a debate with the dealer as well as sony customer care & the request from the sony customer care, I have drafted the following email on dated 08/09/2012 to sonyindia.[protected]@ap.sony.com to get my lap top replaced, but now they are not ready to give the replacement of my laptop. Require your help in getting the replacement of my newly purchased laptop.

Hi,

I have purchased new laptop on dated 24/07/2012, with the following details, I m struggling to get my laptop replaced from the second day from the purchase day. I have interacted with the dealer (4-5 times) as well as customer care (4-5 times) as well as your service centre (Thrice)

Laptop is purchased from the dealer with following details
Dealer Name :- Sidhansh Electronics
Address : G-11, HSU, PALLADIUM. HIGH STREET PHOENIX, S.B. MARG, LOWER PAREL, MUMBAI -13 INDIA.

When I have purchased the laptop, the problem was it get automatically dumped after 15-20 mins.
I have spoken to the dealer, then he told me to get it in the shop. He has kept it in his shop for 3 weeks. The fake response from the dealer was, THERE WAS NO PROBLEM IN THE LAPTOP. After getting it back from the dealer with same condition and response i.e. IF ANY PROBLEM, SONY COMPANY WILL GIVE THE HOME SERVICE AT NEW BOMBAY, KAMOTHE, HE SAID YES. But it was also a FAKE ANSWER given by your dealer, which is came to know after communication with your customer care executive, your executive said, you have to take your laptop to your nearest service centre which is at vashi (new Bombay), he had given me the address.

After the communication with your customer care execute, I went to the service centre, ondated 01/09/2012. At the service centre (at vashi new bombay), It has been told that there is some minor issue with the RAM, frequency of both the rams is not matching, we will have to format the system and get the chipset updated. It will get resolved within 1-2 days. After calling 3-4 times within next 3-4 days, service centre replied “Your problem got resolved, get your laplop from our service centre”.

When I went to your service centre to collect the laptop, “New problem has been shown to your technical team member i.e. desk top screen was continuously flickering”. Your executive got surprised & he told that chipsets were not yet updated, will update it in 5-10 minutes. He gave me lap after 10 min. and told your problem got resolved.

I told him, if any problem then I will get it replaced with new laptop. The same day i.e. on 08/09/2012 when I went to home, after 15-20 min. of working, laptop had same problem.

I have spoken to customer care on 09/09/2012 (Today), he has tried to get it resolved on the phone, but after the communication, it has been told that, take your lap top to the
servicecentre again, tell them to get it replaced as per the SONY’s policy and write an email to sonyindia.[protected]@ap.sony.com for replacement of your laptop (You can check the service request ID:[protected] from your tele system).

When I went to service centre, I have got new JOB NO. J20955782, which is not consisting of my previous JOB NO. After the communication with receptionist, she told me the old JOB NO.J20863817.

AFTER THE ABOVE WHOLE STORY, CAN I CONCLUDE THE FOLLOWING……….
HAVE I DONE THE MISTAKE BY PURCHASING THE LAPTOP FROM SONY?
HOW IRRESPONSIBLE YOUR DEALERS ARE?
HOW BADLY YOUR SERVICE CENTRES HANDLING YOUR CUSTOMERS?

It’s my request to you TO REPLACE MY LAPTOP WITH NEW ONE or COULD YOU PLEASE RETURN MY MONEY BACK TO ME WITH THE INTEREST. I have already wasted lot of time and also the opportunity to improve software my skill sets. So please do not waste my more time. Your immediate response is expected.

Purchased Sony Bravia LED TV EX420 on[protected] but after 14months the background colour went red. Called Sony complaint centre and a service engg. told that the Main PCB needs to be changed, the cost of which is Rs. 7500=00. But when I said that what will be warranty after changing the said PCB, he said that there is no warranty for the same. I understand that the Sony LED TV has some basic technical problem which the company is overlooking and selling the product without bothering about the company's reputation. I had chosen the product by brand image but with this episode I would advice everyone not to buy SONY LED TV. As even if part is changed there is no guaranty that in near future the set would work properly. FOR GOD SAKE DO NOT BUY SONY LED TV SETS.

I have my cell phone Sony Ericsson k810i keypad has deteriorated and the service center, Lucknow then prevails, I found the answer to your mobile no parts available. When you Ericsson k810i Sony Ericsson k810i mobile parts is not available, why sell it to fool the public are invited to tell please

I have given my Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro for repair via Work Order number SE312PCA11982, on 23rd August 2012 and today it is 21days and when I call the call center or Ambe electronics where I gave my phone for repair, no one has idea about the repair status of my phone. Ambe has not received the part from Sony because of which they have not been able to repair it. But Sony customer care representative also does know what is the status of part. Kindly provide an update or deadline by when can I expect my set to be delivered to me.

I have submitted my Sony Ericsson (Xperia) handset to the Ambe Electronics (Authorized Service Centre) noida for repairing. Although its in warranty period & at the time of submission they replied me that you can collect your handset in 7 days. But its now around 13 days from the date of submission & they are still saying that we need more time to repair the handset as the parts are not available. I haven't seen such a poor service from any company till now. Please help me in getting my phone repaired.

Hi My name is Atul Kumar Sona. I made a complaint to M/s Fortune, sony service center situated in baradwari, jamshedpur on 5th September 2012 for a problem I was facing with my TV. My complain number was 1171831. These guys said, somebody will visit my home or will call me in 48 hours. Its 12th September 2012 today and till now nobody came or called me. I have called Sony helpline so many times and they just speak whatever is written on their computer screen i.e. my apologizes and we understand your problem or i have ordered for your part but wrong part was come so i once again placed your order. Today when I called them, they straight away said they want some more days. So I just want to tell people, whosoever wants to buy Sony product in future - please be aware they nobody will respond to your problems or concerns if you have in future for any sony product you will buy.

Very very poor service form Sony, I bought sony home theatre on 24th Aug and after a week only technical problem arises . I took it to the Sony Authorized Service Centre the technician told me it will take maximum a day now 12 days has passed but there's no response from their side. They have no idea about my product. I called customer care almost 4-5 times and got the same reply we will inform you in 48 hours.
Its very painful to face such a problem after paying such a huge amount.
