[Resolved]  Videocon Refrigerator — Compressor faulty

I had purchased a Videocon Fridge in Goa-Margao. I had high regards for this company being a indian mltinational. Initially there were some minor problems witht the door functioning but I tolerated, but now the compressor has stopped working and the dealer tells me to pay Rs.5000/- for replacing the same.
In todays competitive world is there a scope left for the manufacturers to treat the customers in this fashion????..I am really disapointed with the product as well as the service.

Hope the sales and serrvice personnel will read this and attend my complain at the earliest before the videocon brand loses it's presence in the market for making poor quality products.

Hi,
I purchased a fridge 2 years back, it was working fine but last month it stopped working, called to customer service but they say that it will be replaced by a new one & will charge for a new compressor which is out of my budget, i can pay a nominal charge but the question is i was said that the compressor is in guarantee period.
Please provide me some satisfactory solution as soon as possible.

Purchased Videocon Refrigerator in 2012 ..it was ok for 2 years than it started giving problem for NON COOLING.Had to spend almost 8000 for repairs and i t worked for another year, again same issue.In 2016 again did some part changing and needed up paying 4000 /-.

Now in MAy 2017, once again the same cooling issue.The Customer Service is HORRIBLE, as well as the engineers are not upto mark.

I was told that the timer is faulty and need to replace, i kept on asking to check if only that is the issue as now spending more was not worthy but he was confident that thats the issue.In two days again it stopped!!NOw they say the COMPRESSOR is faulty n need to replace which will cost 6000/-.These people are crazy.

They are doing their Trial and Error with customers and engineers are just learning.

Please dont buy anything of VIDEOCON.
