Eureka Forbes Complaints & Reviews

Technology in Water purifiers (Reviva model) seems to be defective. During 'flush', water enters 'pure water storage tank' thus contaminates filtered water. Actually all water must drain out during flush. Moreover, so called 'filtered water' fills in storage tank in just 20 minutes instead of 1 hour written in the manual of this company. This means that filtration is also not perfect.
I have complained 50 times since its installation on 22.11.09, but no rectification till date. My invoice/order no. is[protected] dt 17..11.09.
I suggest not to purchase such defective water purifiers. These will cause water borne diseases even to healthy person.

Problem in Service continues:
BEWARE OF WET AND DRY VACUUM CLEANER AND SERVICE
This product has again malfunctioned.(please read further for first issue. The re[censored]ion takes a big toll on consumers time and energy) It is only 2 months since the last episode and multiple followups. Again the machine stopped functioning on 26th April. Complaint was raised on 28th April. Complaint taken up with Prabhu sales person [protected], Manager Hemanth [protected], Senthil Kumaran [protected]. There has been only promises to get this resolved in 24hrs. Senthikumaran also visited the site, inspected and said he would resolve in 24 hours. nothing has happened.

PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT LOOKING AT THE DEMO. I bought this after getting a demo from Mr. Prabhu of Eureka Forbes on 13/12/2010. It was very impressive demo. The features shown were good. Everything was fine for 1 month. Then it all started. The machine stopped working on 18/1/2010. I lodged a complaint on 23/1/2010 in 3988333 and was given complaint number 82423520. I was promised service in 24-48 hours. No one turned up despite repeated calls to Ms. Prabhu. Spoke to Ms.Akila, Ms.Ramya, Ms.Priya, Ms.Stella, all from customer care, on different days to follow up. All promised to resolve it on the same day I spoke but no respone.. Finally after a humongous effort from my side, Mr. Thiagarajan arrived on 5/Feb and inspected the machine and told that the motor was not working. He promised he would make a new replacement in 1-2 days. This would be replaced by 7/Feb max. There is no response on this after that. No one called me even to update the status of my complaint. It is only frustation that I got buying this product. I am trying to reach some senior person in Eureka Forbes and not able to. PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT LOOKING AT THE DEMO and get into the problem I have.

We have purchased eureka Forbes aqua guard infinity water purifier on 25th of April from sales representative named Mr. Srinivas . but till date we are not able to use that product , when we lodged a complain[protected]/[protected] to help desk they told they will send services person to rectify the problem , but no one has came to see the problem, and day before yesterday i got a call from one sales person and he confirmed that the product is not suited for our area and he can't help me . now i don't know how to approach forward , i am feeling helpless

I bought a brand new Trendy Nano vacuum cleaner, and when it was switched on for the first time for using at home, it started to make a strange noise other than the Suction sound. When i contacted customer care, they had a strange reply stating that they do have a door service for this product.
Wat i dont understand is that for a brand new product also they dont have a proper complaint management?

I bought a vaccum clearner of eureka forbes. On the box and inside the mannual there are 3 accessories mentioned and inside the box only 1 accessories was found. When I talked to there sales manager he told that its a company's printing mistake. But with us its an open fraud. You show customer something else and give a different thing.

NOT RECEIVED DUE SERVICES AGAINST 2 YEAR AMC.

Dear Sir
No response on my REPEATED COMPLAINTS to service my Aqua Guard Nova under Annual contract vide their Contract reciept No 16603332 dated 17/04/2009.
I have made the following complaint request to Eureka Forbes help line :
-Request No 81841343 dt 05/09/2009
- Request No 82399156 dt 08/01/2009
- Request No[protected] dt 16/01/2009
- email of 19 Jan 2010
I re-iterate the following :
- I was told by Eureka Forbes Helpline that no service card exist of the contract.
- I am also given to understand that I have been excess charged by Eureka Forbes Representative i.e. I was asked to pay Rs1300 (paid by crossed cheque No 775979 dt 17/04/2009) whereas the Annual contract rate is Rs 1000.
The only service given by Eureka Forbes service Rep during the contract period is of general cleaning of the Aqua Guard on 26 Jan 2010 .
Perforce we are made to drink polluted water. This is too much and definitely NOT EXPECTED from a reputed company.
Eureka Forbes may therefore be asked to consider looking into the matter and take following action :
- Extend the contract for one year at your cost and with no charges due from me since no service has been provided on the existing contract which expired on 16 Apr 2010.
- Provide full service as per the contract, including changing of Candle , carbon etc.
- Refund the excess payment of Rs300/- taken by Eureka Forbes rep.
Thanking you
Yours sincerely

This complaint (Complaint Number[protected] was made on 28.04.2010 at your delhi service centre
for Servicing of my water Purifier AQUAFLO DX which was purchased on
25/10/2009 vide bill number T-4/1416 from E-Zone ,Paschim Vihar.
Inspite of my repeated telephone calls,no body from Eureka forbes
company ever turned me or tried to make a courtesy call regarding my
complaint.
Now I am buying mineral water from outside for my daily needs.
I have never seen such hopeless,callous attitude from a company who
are into essential comdities of human being like water puriifer .
I am fed up & feel shamed that I bought a third class product of a
company who only believes in selling their product & service is not
their concern.

Please forward this mail to the chairman/Managing Director of Eureka
Forbes urgently.
Thanks

1.I have an AQUAGUARD RO at home and have recently taken AMC for the product.
2. Recently my RO needed urgent service as there was ERRATIC water supply from the system most probably due to clogging. Water in this part of Delhi (DWARKA) is bad and thus a service is required every 4-5 months.

3. On registration of the complaint first time there was no complaint number as the operator on the other side said that the system was down (one of the disadvantages o tele booking/ technology as the user is helpless).

4. when in peak of delhi summer even after 2 days the chap didnt turn up i again complained to the helpline ( what a joke) . the person gave me complaint no 82849521 and said the chap would be there within 24 hrs.

5. Finally after 2 days when i again called up they said that chap had come to youre place and u were not there. I finally lost my shirt as ours is a joint family and there is always someone at home. I also asked him as to why i was not called up on my mobile phone if this was the case , to which he had no answer.

6. Today is the sixth day since the problem occured ,and still there is no sign of Mr WATERMAN.


7. This is the pathetic state of the reputed company. God save this country if this is the response time of the so called repted company

I have bought an aquaguard in the middle of February. Though I was returning my old aquaguard and maintainence contract, they told me that I would have to pay the full amount and the a refund of Rs 2000 would be paid back to me for the old aquaguard and maintainence contract in 2 weeks time. I have been following up with them since the beginning of March. Each time the sales contact would give some excuse or the other eg. end of the year settlement, sending it with some other executive, coming that day, being out of station, finance person not available, etc. Till date (May 4th) it has still not been settled and they are saying that one more signature is required. Please help in getting this resolved (Ph[protected]

So please help us in this matter

I own a water purifyer of Eureka Forbes called Aquaguard Royale. I have also paid and signed an annual maintenance contract with the company. Under the contract the company is required to provide free maintenance as well as change the carbon every six months which is extremely critical. The machine was due for service and change of carbon on March 15, 2010 but no service agent turned up until May 1, 2010 when actually the machine broke down and I registered a complaint at the central service centre. Also, the service centre(H-401, Som Vihar, R. K. Puram) did not have the required parts to be changed and I have to go manage with mineral water for the last 3-4 days. This is crass carelessness on the part of the service centre at Som Vihar especially not changing the carbon on time which means that I was drinking impure water for the past one and a half month putting the life of my family in danger.

Sir/Madam,
We brought the eureka forbes water purifier Reva with 8 Litre storage capacity for our institution from the local franchisee M/S Health Imaging & Pharmaceuticals, Opp. Iqbal Park, Srinagar, J&K a few days before. Unfortunately, the mechanic sent by the dealer was not trained one. Few days after installing the apparatus, the purifier fell down on the ground due to the loose fitting of wall mount brackets on which the purifier rests, resulting in breakage of storage tank. We called the local service centre in this regard, but he did not pay head to it. Subsequently, I mailed the company customer service centre regarding the same, but seems to be appalling in terms of customer service. I require help to address this problem. I need this product replaced or repaired by a technician.

Thanks

This is pertaining to the Awuaguard Nano Water Purifier purchased just 6 months back. There was a small leak in the tap. The 'technician'(so called) Not to take a look at this after 2 days of follow up. It was clear that he knew NOTHING of the instrument. The unit itself fell down from his hand twice. The leak tirned into overflow from all sides and he when he left he put the flush pipe of the the unit right into the kitchen flooding the kitchen in a matter of minutes. IT has been 6 days hence. No positive response from the call centre as well. They seem to have been taught a recorded message. I want to know the response to go in for a case in the consumer court.

dear sir,
i am mrs. raji subramanian residing at adyar , making this complaint.

mr rudharamoorthy a sales person came home with a trainee and explained abt the exchange offer of Aqua guard water purifier on 22nd april 2010(thursday)
i said my old machine is perfectly ok.
he wanted to see the machine and after seeing the machine he talked abt the exchange offer.
i ordered for a Aqua guard RO (Protec+) and compelled my husband to give the cheque in spite of his opposition stating
""the machine has come to the field only six months back to market. let us wait for a few more months and book after it gets stabilised in the market ""
i answered him that i have 300% confidence in aqua guard products
as i have been using classic water purifier and vacuum cleaner since 15 years.

on 23rd april (friday)they came and installed the machine
after struggling for nearly 2 and a half hours they did not install it because it is a faulty and defective machine.
when it comes out of a factory for installation it must be checked thoroughly for 100% perfection to satisfy the customers.
my husband got very much annoyed abt this defective machine.

Now old classic is on the kitchen platform and new one is in the carton box on the kitchen floor.
i am not using neither of them.
i called mr ruthramoorthy over the phone on 24th saturday and told him "i am not at all satisfied with this new product. please take the machine back and re install my old machine and refund my money."
he said i will concult my office and talk to u.
then when i contacted him again
he said my plumber will come and re install the old one today (saturday) 24th
i have a number of phone calls
he has been repeatedly saying he is on the coming coming coming coming......
i cancelled my visit to my relatives house because of my waiting.
since saturday till today 28th april no one came home.
i am fully exhausted of making phone calls,since monday he is not picking up the phone and talking to us.


NOW I WISH YOURSELVES TO TAKE AWAY UR NEW DEFECTIVE ONE AND REPLACE MY OLD ONE IN ITS PLACE AND KINDLY REFUND THE MONEY
VERY URGENTLY as i am satisfied abt the new ones performance at the first level installation itself', i DONT want to have any new product at all.

please do the needful.
dont make us tense the two senior citizens.
my husband is very angry and upset abt the rude behaviour of the boss of mr ruthramoorthy from velacherry office.
expecting ur early action.
we have been deprived o[censored]sing our own old classic since five days
hep us at the earliest

I have purchased your water filter and vaccum cleaner in the month of May or June last year till now I have received any bill for the same. This i have purchased from your sales person namely Mr. Santosh and his mobile number is [protected]. Till I purchased he was behind me and after that when i am trying to reach him he is not at all lifting the phone. This proves the dissatisfaction of a customer how badly he was treated after purchase. In telugu there is a saying namely "Andite gaddam andakapote kallu" in similar manner they have behaved. Secondly i have a complaint for my water filter as i am not getting some sort of problem in my water filter and the same i was following up with your sales person but he was not lifting my phone. I will ensure that my colleagues does not take your product at all as I am getting such a worst service from your sales person. As per the consumer protection act every customer should be provided with a bill after the product is purchased when ever i ask them about the bill it will be received this is the only answer i used to get from them. Kindly look into my issue and my mobile number is [protected]. I am the most dissatisfied customer of your product.
