I would like to bring into your notice that I received a call from Cool Breeze HVAC a company based in Borivali East as they gave me the offer for AMC contract for 4 nos of Hiatchi Split and said that they are authorised Hitachi Service provider, but as I enquired with my friend that the company called Excel Service is Hitachi Authorised, so I called their executive and told about it so they said yes its the same company.
The policy of this company is if the client pays in cash they make the contract letter of Cool Breeze and if you pay in cheque then Hitachi Home & Life Solution
as this company is cheating the end user of Hitachi product, the company should take action aganist such curroupt people running this business.

Excel Service took AMC for my 4 nos Split Units and has not given a single service as they dont have proper technician to attend or ressovle my nocooling complaint which is pending from past 1 month .
Why Hitachi being a brand name appoint such service provider to spoil their name.
Worst ever experience I have faced buying Hitachi Ac, As they have appointed cheaters to run their business

On 1st feb and 5 feb I have requested service 2 times for, but still there is no one came and i recd a msg, service is done.
Aftr that i have done mail on 8 feb still there is no one came..
The hitachi tag line
World class ac with worst service .

Then i call to the person, the ac from i purchased, to him i said all my problems and he told me i wil talk to the hitachi.

I have a Hitachi ace cutout model taken in 2015 march.I found swing blade of a/c not working from last 6months.I contact nearest service Centre Bharat Refrigeration in bokaro steel city & report ed minimum 6 times.But always they said that swing blade not come so that they can't replace it. I do n't understand Hitachi spare parts not available last 6 months.kindly take action so that swing Blade will change immediately.I am PK Mishra, qrs no -1131, SECTOR-4, bokaro steel city, jharkhand

We contracted annual maintenance for 2 spilit AC at 11th Dec. I asked to them full cover maintenance. Mr. Bilal said it can be covered everything, I don't have to pay even 1 paisa in any condition.House keeper also has heard it with me. He left me receipt of 5, 194/- for 2 ton AC, 4, 973/- for 1.5 AC by Air Cool Systems, and said he would send contract paper after. A few days after I got receipt of 4, 475/- and 4, 675/- for both.and term & condition of "Semi-Comprehensive" by Johnson Controls-Hitachi Air Conditioning India Limited. Still I believed the Mr. Bilal and requested to send a person for check. Engineer come today, 31st Jan, and said I have to pay for conpresser for 1.5 ton AC, and did nothing for some noise for 2 ton AC.

After complained to them, Mr.Bilal said, "it is fully cover AC which is within 5 years. " I purchased in 2010, and he did not ask and check my invoice at that time. it is clealy fraud and cheating. I'm Japanese and keep 4ps Hitachi AC. I waned to believe them because of the name of HITACHI.

I could not take any repairing from them, and now I need to refund full payment of 5194+4973=10167 asap. I can't trust them anymore.

Bought the fridge in June 2016. Since then it's been repaired 4 times and every time 2 days after repair the issue is the same.It just doesn't stop making noise and ice in the vegetable tray n behind in the fridge.
I was told a noise is normal.Imagine a Japanese company n noise normal. Encl video for noise.
I need a replacement of the unit. I really think k the problem is unfixable.

I placed an online order for refrigerator vide my order id: hhli-20958, dated october 29, 2016 through hitachi e-shop for hitachi french bottom freezer series french bottom freezer r-wb480pnd2- (Gbk). Before placing the order, your customer service department informed me that if order on hitachi e-shop, the delivery will be made within 7-8 days. It is very much regretted that even after 17 days, there is no sign of any expected delivery in near future. I have sent five emails to your ids: hhli. [protected]@gmail.com, "hitachi e-shop", but it appears hitachi has got a very poor communication system. None of my emails have yet been acknowledged till date. The only telephone number provided to contact for orders placed on hitachi e-shop is [protected]. It is very disappointing that this number is mostly no reply. But if picked up by mistake, a lady answers and informs that nobody is available to respond to my query. I expected hitachi, being a japanese company, to be very prompt in service and communication, but i am very much regretted that hitachi has extremely poor communication service, and they do not honour any commitments for the orders placed online where full payments are paid at the time of placing the orders. I expected hitachi to respond to my emails, but they did not acknowledge any of my mails. I request hitachi team to arrange for the immediate delivery of my refrigerator.

Hitachi as Brand is not good in service. I brought 1.0 ton Inverter ac thinking saving electricity and from day one cooling issue and Technician does some temporary repair work and again after months time cooling Drops! One day I was surprised as machine got breakdown and Techician told me ODU controller needs to be replace which cost almost 40% of machine value and this happen just crossing one year warranty of company ie. after 15months. I am double mind do I TRUST is unprofessional brand so called HITACHI ? Should I spend such a huge amount on repair (that to unprofessional Brand HITACHI) or put some more money buy some other brand AC.

Please ask Hitachi to replace entire machine itself. lost confidence on Brand.

Hi,

I purchased hitachi 5 star window 1.5 ton AC roughly 2 years ago and Right from first month of purchase the AC given to me has been working pathetic.

Problems from 1st month:
1. AC cooling pathetic
2. The noise created by AC is extremely high
3. The auto cutoff that happens in the AC creates sound as if the machine is breaking down and some machine parts will fall on me as AC is right above my head. You can understand how disturbing this feeling can be set late night in middle of the sleep.
4. The supporting parts of fan in the AC is of such low quality that it lowers within 3 months and starts touching surface of the AC machine leading to heavy sound and breakage of fan and or other surrounding parts.

I complained Vijay Sales and they said hitachi company need to take care of your AC. I complained hitachi more than 6 times, finally escalated with multiple email chains and post this a tech guy came who broke the AC even further. Again the complaint chain followed and finally a trained tech guy came and he fixed few of the problems (noise) and to certain extent cooling was fixed. BUT this was temperory. Within 4months AC is again acting useless with almost NO Cooling and HEAVY NOISE.

I am fed up of the pathetic company service and more fed up of the irresponsible behavior who charged me around 35000Rs saying window AC having 5star will be long term benefit but it has been my worst experience ever. I have assembled AC, National AC in other rooms and they work so good since past 10 to 12 years and I just regret picking hitachi.

I need someone to look in to this issue not just for me but also for all those who are suffering similar issues but are not educated enough to make such complaints online and hence struggle day and night calling on their call centers and suffer.

Hope this is read by some Sr. management of Hitachi so they know what their staff is doing and how Hitachi is on the edge to see a big drop in coming future.
