Whirlpool — poor after sales service

Address:Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh

Dear Sir/Madam

I bought a fully automatic White Magic 6.5Kg Whirlpool in 02/Dec/2010, The Washing machine is under 1 years warranty. On 15 october 2011, the machine stopped working. I called up whirlpool call centre on the same day and lodged a complaint with complaint number LK[protected].

One Service Engineer form whirlpool authorized service center visited my house the same day and after seeing the machine, he said the some part is damage and has to be replaced.
When I called the service centre, they says the part is not available, u have to wait some days.
After one week on dated 22/October/2011 I write to mail to [protected]@whirlpool.com and also call to customer care many time , but They don't respond well, they don't follow up, they don't keep their customers well informed.

We at home are facing hell of a time, washing all clothes by hand for the last 17 days. When it is under warranty, the company pays no attention to repairing the defective product

Hoping the above complaint is taken seriously and is dealt with the same seriousness.

regards;

I had complained to Whirlpool service center on 3rd April, 10 for the cooling problem. A technician from the service center of whirlpool "Raguveer Enterprises" visited and stated that certain parts have gone faultly which is the cause of the problem in the cooling of the fridge. The cost of the parts stated by him was Rs.1900/-. On discussion I found the AMC of Rs 3200/- for two years more suitable hence opted for it only because the difference between cost of spare and teh AMc was only Rs. 1300/-. Even after changing the parts the cooling problem was not solved. On his visit the next day, I was told the door of the freezer was faulty which again he some thing but the issue was not solved. I even called " Raghuveer Enterprises" and received a lukewarm response. Yesterday A senior engineer accompanied the technician after my repeated compliant to the call center they have again stuufed some thermacol etc. Nothing has changed the issue yet. I have managed to reach the Whirlpool headoffice and lodge compliant the customer service officer has done teleconference with the service center owner and are attmpting to resolve the issue. The problem now communicated to me now is that it is teh GAS problem. I am really confused and harrassed and do not trust anymore. I need your intervention and guidence.

I have lodge a complaint against my Refigrator on 27.04.2011 and complaint no. is DL[protected]. This complaint should be attend within 24 hrs as per the call center but unfortunately it is still pending. How their service system is working..................only GOD knows. Moreover "contact us" on whirlpool's website is not working properly and I am unable to send my mail to them through this. If they are unable to handle service issues then why they are not stop their sales. I do not what to do ?
