I am writing this mail, because i made one of the biggest mistakes of my life by ordering a phone from Flipkart, so here is a brief summary of what happened-
I ordered Moto X style from Flipkart on a product exchange offer, now when the delivery executive came to deliver the phone he checked the exchange phone's IMEI no and the phone status, after which he said tha he requires a charger also with the phone without which he cannot give my mother the new phone. As my mother was confused that the terms and condition do not mention charger as mandatory about this she called me and I put in her in a conference with customer support, the lady from Flipkart confirmed that charger is an optional accessory and we do not need to give any charger.
The delivery executive still insisted that he needs a chager for delivery, now i requested for his manager's no and added him to the conference, he also was not willing to accept exchange phone without charger. After repeated requests from the customer care executive the manager got ready to accept the exchange phone, when my mother was giving the phone to delivery executive to confirm the same unfortunately while passing the phone the exchange phone dropped and the screen broke. Now here is where the actual suffering began, the delivery executive stated shouting that the phone has been broken by my mother and he is not responsible but according to my mother this was partially true as the phone broke when he snatched the phone to talk on conference. This whole incident was recorded by me on a call recorder app which i have on my phone by default.
After this I was told to let the delivery executive go and another team will surely help me.
The investigation team has confirmed to me that as courier partner is not ready to take responsibility for the damage to the phone Flipkart will not be able to help me in any possible way.
Now i have been calling Flipkart to please give me my new phone since the past three days, and the final conclusion that Flipkart has come up with is that my mother was responsible for the damage to the phone. I do not agree to this and would challenge this decision in court also. I believe the investigation done by flipkart is biased towards courier partner.
I am also attaching parts of recordings of conversations between customer care, delivery executive, his manager & us while and after the the phone broke, the next immediate step i am taking is i am sending this mail's content with recordings to all consumer experience websites & social media websites. I also have all the 10 other recordings in which customer care executives have kept me on hold for Hours, lied and said totally opposite versions of the same fact.
Now i have two demands from you :
1) I have got my exchange phone repaired at my expense, please deliver my new phone and please make sure that same delivery executive does not deliver the phone.
2) Please confirm/ reply over mail what was the result of the investigation done from your end.Why was i responsible for damage to exchange phone, even though the damage happened after the delivery executive had checked the phone and the transaction in all terms was completed. Except Charger which according to customer care executive was not mandatory.
I don't want to the delivery executive to suffer any repercussions, because he is not at fault these kind of mistakes can happen but the response received from flipkart has been terrible
