[Resolved]  Whirlpool Washing Machine — Irresponsible customer care

i had given a complain to whirlpool on 6th september 2009 through their telephonic customer care service for a fault in my newly procured washing machine. i was assured that within 24hrs an engineer would come and attend the complain. but he turned up only 3 days later. after inspection he suspected a board or belt problem. he said there was no stock of both the spares with him and hence he would return back in 2 days and replace the same. but till date (17/9/09) there was absolutely no word from whirlpool. everyday i call them up to only hear that their engineer is on the way. i even demanded them to extend my warranty period by the number of days delayed by them in attending this complain which i feel is a fair enough demand. if they dont have the stock of their own spares who the hell will have it. am planning to take up the issue to consumer court.

Hi...
This is ridhanya from coimbatore, Tamilnadu... I totally agree wit wat u say.. i bought a whirpool fully automatic Washin machine durin Dec 2008 which created lots of problems.. i was upset with the condition of the machine and also wit the poor service of Whirpool for the past 3 months.. Whenever i called up the customer care and made a complaint reg the non workin of my washing machin, they told that they wud immediately attend by sendin a service executive, but never turned up at anytime.. Many times i was left unattended even without a proper reply.. Due to frustration, i consulted an advocate and asked for a legal advice in order to file a consumer case against the whirpool.. Through him, i sent a legal notice... Surprisingly, within two days of the receipt of the legal notice wich i sent throu this lawyer, the service men came to my house and made my washin machine work properly..Thanks to the advocate...! Now my machine works properly without any problem..
Before six days I have sent email to you but not reply as yet. My washing machine not function smoothly . Water not to be heat . I have lodge complain service centre at Begusarai Bihar in the month of june09 but not response as yet.Information regarding service centre -mobile no [protected] [protected] & [protected]

Whirlpool Washing Machine — Continuous complaints of machine stoppages,drum problems etc

We have an whirlpool automatic washine purchased in October 2007 in Chennai.The machine has been giving a lot of problems right from the start.A lot of complaints have been registered and attended but the inconsistency of the machine remains.Now,the customer care also does not register the complaints as earlier complaints are still open.The last complaint was given on 24th december2009 with complaint no.22693.but no one has attended the complaint.The call to customer care has been of no use yet again as the last complaint according to them( dated 14/12/09) is still not closed thus no new complaint will be registered.Whirlpool mamangement is pathetic and does not repond at all and keep diverting the calls to Customer care.

We need help to get either or money back or get a replacement of the machine.

Dear All,
I wish to bring to your kind notice the following facts about my Whirl pool top loading 2003 model(White Magic F 65) washing machine:

1) The said Whirl pool washing machine (was purchased at Navi mumbai Vashi through sumaria out let.)

2) Subsequently we paid by 2003 4 th. Dec. a sum of 1080 for service contract with KASTURIENGINEERS. In receipt of the message of our contract with Kasturi engineers, we recived a letter from Whirl pool's vice president - cosumer services Mr.Shantanu Dasgupta authenticating the contract and Home care plan number and an authenticating note.

3) But we never had a chance of the visit of the Kasturi Enineers to service our said Whirl pool washing machine due to no reason from our end and may be the president of Whirl pool shoul be knowing.

4) Now since our Whirl pool washing machine has started to give some trouble like stopping frequently while washing is going on I approached the service engieer Mr.Shaikh from Royal service at Vashi ( Navi Mumbai) they informed us we have to use a descaling powder known as scale gone / Clear Must ETC, to clean the scales formed below the arbor, and the same is not given in service manual when the said Whirl pool top loading machine was launched, but Whirl pool manufacturer has started to add the name of the chemical in their susequet brochures of subsequent models which is not made to our knowledge.

5) Also nobody from Kasturi Engineers is available now to settle there non servicing of machine during 2003 to 2007.

6) The latest issue is for servicing the machine by Royal I have to pay money for the service call and washing machines PCB has to be changed at a cost of Rs.3000/-.

7) Please give me justification for my grievances.


Regards,

Ranganathan
good to inform to make people aware

I have bought a Whirlpool Washing Machine in the month of January 2012. There is a water leakage problem in the machine. Despite repeated complaints to the customer care NOBODY bothers to attend to the problem. The issue was escalated to the Area Supervisor in Bangalore (Banashankari-Kumaraswamy Layout), and yet it is of no avail. Is this the way customers are attended to in Whirlpool? After a complaint number is generated, it gets automatically closed in the system WITHOUT being attended to. This is a very deplorable way of handling things.

I am lodging a consumer complaint against Whirlpool and would bring up this matter across forums so that people are aware of how the customers are attended to.

Avoid Whirlpool Washing Machine

Anybody plan to by Whirlpool Washing Machine ? Please change that decision, its very poor in quality and service. i brought Whirlpool Washing Machine and next month Started complaint. I feel, I cheated
