[Resolved]  Hitachi Home & Life Solutions India [Hhli] — abrupt customer service

Address:Grand Omaxe, Greenwich Tower B, Gautam Buddh Nagar, Uttar Pradesh, 201304

Team sales...
Bought an a/c (Split) on 24th march from the rhythm (Sector 18, noida) and same got installed and demo was also offered.

But we used dtd:- 03rd may 2019 for the 1st time and it wasn't cooling at all.

Ps: re-fund the amount as i sincerely believe am not on right hands.

Team service:-

call registered online.

the call get scheduled and text [protected]@1600 hours (Approx..) i. E. Engineer-vivek mishra ([protected]) will visit shortly.

since no body turned up, called the engineer @1947 hours but the engineer was unprofessional on his approach, rather he told that he will visit tomorrow (I. E. Today)

no body turned till 1300 hours so i tried connecting toll free @chat support. Interestingly came to know that the response tat is 48 hours.

the turn around is not accepted at all and the approach of the executive i. E. Field engineer is cheap. Frankly just reach out 1 of the engineer and place a discussion.

i have emailed the detailed case with my experience @[protected]@jci-hitachi.com on dtd:- 08th may 2019 @1444 hours.
Pn: the response received on email was on dtd:- 11th may 2019 @1731 hours.

Team hitachi,
Sincerely my experience with hitachi is painful. Looking forward for the solution immediately.

Thanks!!!

Hi Team,

Wake Up...Guys.
Hi.. Wake Up Team Hitachi...

Today is 15th May 2019 i.e. 8th day since the issue reported and 3rd day since escalated @consumer forum.

Surprisingly, no body from the team has called yet.

Don't know how is the service eco-system working but definitely mine experience is worst. How soon the re-fund will be initiated.

Surya Kant

Dear Sir,

Greetings From Hitachi!

Sorry for the late revert.

As I had discussion with our service team and got to know that you have given an appointment of late evening 8PM.

Therefore, I would like to inform and requesting you to provide time between 10AM to 6PM. Also as per the company refund policy we will require visit of senior technician directly from Hitachi and on basis of his observation only the management will take further necessary action.

We hope you understand our stand and looking forward for your cooperation.

To the concerned authority,

I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible to resolve this problem. If I do not hear from you by tomorrow, I will file complaints with the appropriate consumer agencies and consider my legal alternatives. I may be contacted at the below phone number.
I believe that no response is unfair . I would like a written statement explaining your company's position and what you will do about my complaint.

This sort of behaviour is completely unacceptable. I demand that you either replace the air-conditioner immediately or refund my money. If you do not do so, I shall take this matter to the Consumer Council.

Do you want me to reach out to Rajan Bhandari, Anuj Gupta or Navtej Singh to get this resolved?

Thanks and regards,
Arunima Prasad

Dear Mr. Mishra,

Greetings from Hitachi!
I would like to inform you again, as per the company’s replacement and refund policy we will require visit of senior technician directly from Hitachi and on basis of his observation only the management will take further necessary action. Without any senior technician visit and diagnosis of the unit will not be able to refund, it’s a management decision.
We hope you understand our stand and looking for your cooperation.

Hi Suvarna,

Greetings...

Thanks for the email acknowledgement...

With reference to below e-mail I strictly deny few points mentioned.

Important:
A/C got installed @24th Mar 2019.
Issue Reported online DTD:- 7th May 2019 i.e. the cooling is not proper
PN:
And then I have started experiencing the After Sales Support impact which made me feel that I do not want to be part of this football match.

Attaching the email follow-ups and Chat exchanged. Apart I have communicated with 2-3 Engineers and that have made my experience even more worse.

May I know how soon I shall get my re-fund?

Regards,
Surya Kant

Dear Mr. Mishra,

It is with great concern and regret we received your complaint outlining the problem you had regarding the Split air conditioner.

Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience you may have experienced.

We have received the complaint from you on 14/05/2019 for the cooling issue with the reference no. [protected].

Based on the complaint received the service technician has contacted you for the appointment to check the unit, but you have denied for the visit and demanding Refund.

In above context and as discussed with you, we would like to inform you that, as per the company’s replacement policy we will require visit of senior technician directly from Hitachi and on basis of his observation only the management will take further necessary action.

Hence, we request you please confirm the date and time for senior technician visit, whenever you require.

Hence we are considering the complaint as cancelled from our end.

We once again apprise that your suggestions and feedback are valuable for us.

Once again we apologize for any inconvenience and awaiting for your esteem appointment for early resolution.

Hi Hitachi,
As usual, it's been 12 days since you responded here that some one will call me to fix the problem, i am yet to receive even a courtesy call - let alone repair of your sun-standard products. I have made close to 50 calls to your customer support since last 2 months.

Just want to let other buyers to be aware and avoid Hitachi at any costs.
