IFB Industries Complaints & Reviews

We have raised a complaint regarding non functioning of our Washing Machine on 12th Jan. We were assured that it will be serviced next day. Our machine is in warranty as well.

When we called to inquire regarding this on 15th Jan. we were informed that the complaint has been re-registered on 15th itself since they were unable to track our machine code.

We kept calling them and got assurance every day that it will be rectified. We did get a call on 18th Jan for service. But the person was rude and left from our security gate itself. When we spoke to him, he informed that it is not his business and someone else will handle it and disconnected our call.

We are very heart broken by the ownership and service levels provided by IFB team.

Already we raised the issue before. we are still facing the problem with our washing machine. We almost spend more than half of the price of the product but one or the other issue pop up frequently. Now the Water flow in the drum even when the machine is off. We are fed-up with the machine and the service technicians. So, we don't want to spend anymore for fixing the machine, we request you to take back the machine. We will buy some other good brand washing machine.

IFB machine top load, spin was not working so we logged a complaint on 11-Jan-2023 with the IFB customer care. Next day 12-Jan-2023 the technician visited, opened the machine fully, he mentioned the problem of drain motor to be replaced and this doesn't come under warranty. So you will be charged 2900 for the motor. Told to negotiate he told will confirm with senior person. We told to make the motor replacement and later for a week there is update. We kept on calling the customer care, and they mentioned of cancel the ticket by the technician. Today 17-Jan-2023 still there is update from the IFB company.
I say this to be negligence from the IFB on the service they offer. They mentioned of free service for every 6 months. Not a single service done.

This is really a very bad experience. I am first time IFB customer and facing this bad product quality issue as well as bad customer service. My Service Request was cancelled without any resolution after a week. I am doing almost 2-3 follow up everyday and now it is cancelled which is making me very sick. Service Request no. #[protected] which is cancelled even I made a escalation and both escalation team and Area manager is not giving me proper update.

Machine under warranty and not working from 1 month. Raising customer complaints and without any action they resolved and we are just raising request again with hope some action will be taken. Worst response from customer care.

Front load IFB washing machine under warranty not working from last 1 month. We raised customer complaint but no action taken and they themselves closed the request and every time we enter request they do same. Worst customer response. Please take immediate action.

My IFB dishwasher Neptune got serviced by the Sambasiva Enterprises (authorised IFB service centre) HNo 6-1-416, Q. No C-31, Phase I, opp. Huda park, Vanasthalipuram, Hyderabad, ten days ago. They charged Rs.5970 towards service and some tins of DScale and Salt.
After one week it started leaking. Despite my calls and personal visits they are not rectifying the complaint.
They are negligent and harsh in service. Very poor service. Please rectify
I feel distressed for buying your product with very poor service. Even after spending so much money I am not able to use it because it is leaking.

I had reported a burning smoke incident from my watching machine few days back and based on that IFB technician came and checked the machine and told us that as it was operating on high speed which caused rubber and container friction and that might have burned and caused smoke and burning smell.
But today on 30th dec also same thing happened when machine was operating on medium speed setting. I also checked input voltage which is normal. I have complete recoding of incidence.
Need replacement of this machine as it can cause fire hazard and is unsafe to use and not operating as it was, this machine is less than 3 months old and causing issue repeatedly. I am unable to use it and not getting any reply from IFB team also. Miss Mohini is not helpful in this case even though they know that it can cause serious fire issues and is unsafe to operate such machine in multistory building.
Need immediate action on it.

IFB service engineer attended on 01. Dec.2022. Tricked my 76-year-old father by saying 10 pack of IFB Fluff and 6 packet of descale is mandatory and part of IFB 4-year maintenance. He also fitted an additional filter; saying it's good for the equipment to reduce effects of hard water on washing machine. Payment done by father via google pay in the name of service engineer bank account (No IFB account/ service provider company bank account). When questioned later, the engineer apologized and agreed to take back half of the product. When no response after 3 weeks; Complaint Escalation: WA217496 sent to IFB on 17. Dec.2022. Couple of calls Nothing positive from IFB; either for refund or taking back product. NOW not response from service engineer or IFB team till date.

I brought IFB Dishwasher item code[protected] model Neptune SX1 from IFB point, Hitech City, Hyderabad on[protected]. I received the product in one week and when the installation person came to install the dishwasher, we found they had delivered the damaged product.
We requested replacement and IFB Point shopkeeper told that they don't have stock and would be able to replace the product only after 2 months.

Post this we decided to cancel the product as IFB Point shopkeeper said that they will not able to deliver when we wanted the product. It has been one month since then and they are just postponing the cancellation and not even refunding or picking the damaged product. I have been following up daily and they are coming up with new excuses every day.
