Website:[email protected]

Ref: complaint no.436000 &
Request no.128505 dated 16th october, 2017.
Dear sir,
I already lodged a complaint with godrej smart care online in their email id : [protected]@godrej.com in the second week of september, 2017, and after 2 weeks one technician came to my house, and on inspecting of the washing machine, he went back saying that some spare parts are to be replaced, and it has to be obtained from the godrej company, but till date he neither came back nor anybody from their service centre made the washing machine alright. Thereafter, many times calls were made on their toll free number [protected] & [protected], but no favorable response made by either by godrej smart care or from their service centre, and my washing machine lying idle for near about two months. The details of washing machine & day to day activities after getting the washing machine faulty is given below:
On 08/09/2016 i purchased from vijay sales, sion (W). Mumbai, one godrej washing-machine viz. Brand name : eon fuzzy+; model no: wt eon 651 pfh; product code:4m1671; serial no: pd0018-[protected] of 6.5 kg. One month back the said washing machine got faulty with the following observations i. E.
1) at the first instance it shown e3, though the upper lid was properly closed.2) button of 'start/pause' (Outer touch layer) went down.3) smell of wire burning & some smoke came out from the rear.
Immediately i lodged complaint on their toll phone no. [protected], and their technician after some days came and inspected, and stated that one parts is to be replaced & he went away. However, he did not turned up or came back with the spare parts for quite a long time. Thereafter again i lodged complaint/inquired with their service centre, and they said that the spare part is not available in the company, and they are awaiting for the same.
Sir, it is surprising to note that my purchased appliance being a new model washing machine and it's cost is approx. Rupees nineteen thousand, and such a reputed company like godrej could not provide or kept stock of the essential spare parts in their service centre which are to be replaced in the event of the customers are in distress, and that too within the guarantee period.
Now several false messages are coming on my mobile number-[protected] that
(A) on 5th october messaged “godrej technician-mumbai-abdul kadir khan will be attending your call -
B[protected] on 05/10/2017.
(B) on 06th october messaged “we are closing your godrej appliance complaint no. B[protected] as you
Have said that there is no problem.”
(C) on 15th october, messaged ‘service code given, share with technician. Call no. B[protected]”.
(D) on 16th october at 1.18 p. M. “technician abdul kadir khan will be attending your call - b[protected] on 16/10/2017.
(E) on the same day 2.45 p. M. Said “we are closing your godrej appliance complaint no. B[protected] as you have said there is no problem.”
Note: the fact is that no such technician visited, and i have not told anybody that there is no problem is there in the said appliance.

In view of the above circumstances, your are requested provide compensation from m/s. Godrej & boyce mfg.co., ltd., mumbai-400 079, for the all trauma myself & my family members are facing for the last near about 2 months in the mental stress being caused for contacting them several time and for the disappointment because of their lethargic & unfriendly attitude towards the customer, my money spent on all things from the date of purchasing their product in conveyance, calls, traveling, money spent on washing clothes by other people, since my wife is ill, and the cost of the washing machine spend with interest till final settlement & oblige.

Thanking you,
Yours faithfully

On 23rd October, 2017, it is messaged that "We have attended to your appliance. In case of pending work, please give a missed call within 7 days on [protected]; However, several missed called made on the same Number. On 24th October, one Mr. Shashikant Rathe on contacting informed that spare parts came, and will be sending the Technician. But nobody turned up, and again contacting them on their Toll Number, on 25th October, This Mr. Yashwanth Rathe passed on to their section on 6th floor, and one man over there told that parts didn't received, but on the way, and expecting the same. Now today i.e. on 26th October, 2017, one Mr. Hafiz came, and he could not remove the E3 remark coming on the panel, and then he told that from PCB supply not going, and informed that PCB been changed, and again that problem of showing E3 was coming, so he cut the connections coming from three different side to 'door switch' and made into one connection, and when asked him why 'door switch' not been replaced, then he told that it is not available with him, and again if it is ordered with the Company, and to receive the same, then another one week time it will take. Here I would like to say that those three different wire connections he made one & insulation tape wounded have been kept open by him, touching the metal body of the washing machine, which with full of water on functioning any time, may cause electrical shock and endanger our life, for which M/s. Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd., Mumbai, may be held responsible. Putting all efforts by that Mr. Hafiz, Technician deputed by Godrej Appliances, he could not remove E3 remark coming on the display panel & could not be able to function the said washing machine, and he went away back. I now hereby demand that I may be either compensated with the cost of the washing machine I paid i.e. Rs. 18945/- PLUS Rupees Ten thousand; total Rs. 30, 000/- being for the trauma my family members gone through, and the addl. expenditure incurred for all incidents happened thereafter with interest thereon; or otherwise, M/s.Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd.(Godrej Appliances), Mumbai, may please be directed to deliver to my house immediately on 'door delivery' a brand new model Washing Mashing(fully automatic_ costing M.R.P. of Rs. 30, 000/- & above.

It's not understood why Indian Consumer Complaints Forum opened a site like 'Consumer Complaints', and just fooling the Consumers by asking to Submit a Complaint, and then asking them to Update, and on updating, stereotype message sending like "Your details have been shared with our concerned team. We assure you that we will address your issue at the earliest.', but nothing positive being done in the matter? It is once again requested to replace the can't be repaired Washing Machine with a new one immediately.

Though the Company representative came to my home, and after checking & confirming that the said washing machine is irrepairable, and thereafter assured that immediately new replacement washing machine will be made or refund of the amount paid by me towards the cost of the washing machine will be made, but, up till I have not provided with the same, and in the circumstances, me & my family members are facing lot of hardship since three months without a washing machine in my home. Immediately M/s.Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd.(Godrej Appliances), Mumbai/Vijay Sales, Sion, Mumbai, may please be expedited accordingly.

Sir/Madam,
It is highly regretted that I have not been favoured/delivered with the Refund-Cheque for Rs.18, 945/- till date, inspite if the Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd., Mumbai([protected]@godrej.com), Pick-Up personnel took away the defective Washing Machine on 29th November, 2017 from my home, and after that no response received from them in giving the cheque to me, though near about four months are going to get complete since we are not able to use washing-machine at my home, though about Rs. 20, 000/- spent from my pocket towards the purchase of this Godrej Washing Machine. Two days before, from your Complaints Forum somebody called me and inquired about the position of this case, and still nothing fruitful happened till date in issuing me with the Refund Cheque for Rs. 18, 945/-.
