IFB Industries Complaints & Reviews

My dish washer model zephyr ex has not been working for the last almost 6 months. Many complaints have been made the last one being no. [protected] on 23 aug. The mechanic from your franchise-sakshine enterprises comes, fiddles around and goes away not to return. So i go through the same routine again. If this was'nt bad enough i was conned by the same franchisee into taking an amc for 2 years for rs 4945/- on 09/06/17 even while the machine was not working and is still not repaired.

I now propose to sell off this dish washer but i want reimbursement for the amt paid for the amc or you may consider transferring it to my clothes washing m/c.

The lock of my ifb washing machine was not working so i made a repair request (Ticket no. [protected]) on 31st august, next day engineer came and after checking the machine told me that lock and panel was faulty and will be replaced next day.
He did not come thereafter, neither i got any call.
After calling ifb customer care i was given the no. Of mr. Vikram (Area service incharge), i called him atleast 4 times and every time either his phone was busy or he did not bother to pick the phone.
Again today (6th september) on calling i am suggested to wait for some more time but no certain date or time given to resolve my problem.
This is not the first time earlier also on breakdown of machine its not repaired before 4-5 days

Hi,

I've lodged a complaint on 2nd sept, 2017 with ticket no. [protected] mentioning that my ifb washing machine is not functioning. I got a message on 4th sept, 2017 that technician will come and resolve this issue. He came and opened my machine and worked on it for 3-4 hours and couldn't resolve the issue. The power led which was glowing then has now stopped working and he told us that the switch is short and he doesn't have a replacement so he will come on 6th sept, 2017.

I called up customer care on 4th sept, 2017 itself and had asked the customer care agent to send some efficient technician on urgent basis on 5th sept, 2017 since the technicians you send are inefficient in trouble shooting the issue are resolving it.

However, whenever i call up customer care they just say that we are updating the records but nothing fruitful happens. I happened to speak up with ramesh and rohit 3 times however no body has turned up to solve my issue.

I even spoke today to rohit who gave me these numbers but nobody picked up my call.

My washing machine details are:

Ifb fully auto front load wm - elena vx.

Request you to resolve my issue asap.

Ref. No : [protected], running successfully from 45 days only :-)

With reference to following details:
Complaint no : [protected]
Model no: 20sc2
Date of compliant : 22/jul/2017
Issue : not closed till date.
Concern : i would be glad to know your compliant handling system.
Not interested : repair of oven

I got surprised that when i got a call from mother today that the oven is not yet repaired for the compliant you had raised on your home coming on 22 july. So now i am curious to know how a compliant is closed by itself and kept open for grand 45 days. What is so special about ifb? Please let me know.

Hi team,

I am using ifb washing machine from past couple of years and i am having some problem from past 4 months. I have been regularly calling the customer care and every time i get the same answer that our engineer will be visiting you soon and it never happens. I logged a complaint in the month of may and its been almost 4 months now that my washing machine is still not fixed.

Kindly let me know if this is the kind of afer service we get from the reputed company like ifb. Fyi my complaint # [protected]. Hope to hear back fro m you soon.

Regards,

Hi,

Ticket# [protected]

I had complained to customer care for the glass broken due to pressure inside the washing machine and no fault o[censored]s. The service technician charged rs 2820/- just for the door glass. Can someone tell me from ifb why the spares are so costly and what is the use of 100% warranty if you say glass is not covered under warranty? This clearly looks as manufacturing defect. I would need complete refund.

My washing machine model ifb senorita vx is not taking water in washing mode and also its drum not moving but it's okai in drying mode .so plzzz snd any service man or technician to rectify my machine problem .

Hi,

Kbs service center (Raghavendra/manjunath) has recommended motherboard pcb replacement for resolving the issue with the washer/dryer (Complaint#[protected]). However, they have advised to get this product replaced with a new washing machine as the part is not available in india. It has to be ordered from parent company outside india which would take a month.

This product is still under warranty. The machine was purchased in august 2014. For rs. 65000. It is really disappointing to see that a german technology machine has already started malfunctioning twice in 3 years. Pcb motherboard was diagnosed to be faulty even in 2014. We were without a washing machine for almost 3 weeks back then. This is the second time we are getting into this situation.

I fail to understand why you would sell a product to customer when you cannot honour the warranty? I have a big family which is heavily dependent on this machine. We are facing lot of inconvenience. Please help to get the replacement part by upcoming monday or give me a standby machine till the replacement part arrives?

Attaching the copy of the purchase receipt of washing machine.

Best regards,

Can't lock the door...
Lock complaint
Can't wash the clothes without locking the front door

The door interlock had a problem, so i called complaint to ifb washing machine customer service. Two days latter technician name called iyappan showed up from neyveli, tamilnadu. He said digital board burned, door lock also bad. But i requested change the door interlock only. He refused to do that service, he wants rs 4500 for service. I noticed he just wants money poor #. I am not willing to pay 4500 for nothing. I just bought used lock for rs 250 and changed my self. It is working fine. When ever he comes home, he lies lot and makes money. I will not buy any more ifb product.

My dishwasher giving f2 & f5 errors. Very bad service from service center.

मैंने एक वाशिंग मशीन October 2016 को ख़रीदा था जिसमें IFB की तरफ से साल में 4 service फ्री करने की सिफारिश थी लेकिन 10 माह निकलने के बाद भी IFB की तरफ से अब तक एक भी बार service man वाशिंग मशीन को देखने नहीं पंहुचा ! जबकि मशीन के साथ 4 सर्विस कार्ड भी साथ आये हुए है! कृपया आपसे निवेदन है की मशीन का एक साल का सर्विस समय खत्म हो मशीन की सर्विस करवाने का कष्ट करें !

धन्यवाद

I had a issue with the product and had raised a complaint on july2nd, 2017. Service engineer has come and informed us that the mother board has a error and he took it away.. Till time i post this message it is not repaired. Whenever i call there is no response. The manager there is always busy on some clients.

When i went to the showroom for request, he too was irresponsible.. Please any one suggest me what to do..

I have been using ifb aqua senorita washing machine since may 2012. I have got a problem for the first time on 21st aug 2017. I have registered a complaint ([protected]) on 22nd aug morning. I was very happy that the technician arrived my home in the afternoon. He checked and told me that the problem is with the pcb board. He also said that will arrive by 23rd aug morning if i could get the board from ifb store. He didn't turn up and i called him back on 24th aug. He mentioned that we got the board and another technician will visit the house today. I kept calling him and he was keep on telling me that will come in another 1 hour and this continued till evening 7pm and at last he told we can't come today and also tomorrow being ganesh chathurthi, we can come only on 26th aug. I kept calling them for every hour and finally technician arrived my house at 6:30pm. This time the technician replaced pcb board and still the problem persists. He then fixed back my old pcb board and told me that the problem is not with pcb board, the actual problem is with the motor and it is out of office hours and can't get it today, but for sure i'll consult the store on monday 28th aug morning and will visit the house and fix the issue. Since morning i called him and got a response from him that the store is not ready to give the motor to him and told him to attend some other complaints as a priority. He mentioned me to contact so called manager shabareesh ([protected]). Meanwhile i also called customer care multiple times and at last got shabareesh and nirmala contact numbers. Nirmala didn't pick my calls, shabareesh doesn't even have patience to listen to my issue and responded that he'll get back in 5 minutes, but smartly he didn't turn up. He is not even picking my calls.
I have no other option rather than calling customer care again and rewind my issue to them, this time they connected me to mr. Ali khan as a escalation contact and he assured me that will call back in an hour, but to my unfortune he didn't turn up as well. We can understand from this experience that how irresponsible, unskilled technicians and management ifb is equipped with. I am approaching consumer complaints here for the issue resolution.

Have registered complaint for non-working of my microwave oven. The technician informed that the pcb part is faulty and needs replacement, costing rs.1950/- in addition to rs.300/- visiting charges. I really wonder that instead of exploring the possibility of repair, he straight away suggested replacement. The cost also seems escalated. Kindly look into the matter. The part is with the technician. An earliest reply will be highly appreciated. Rajesh sajlani; [protected] (Mobile no.)

Complained for fault on 14th august, no clear reply frim ifb. Toll free no person only gives assurances, but not resolving the problem mumbai ifb centre people most arrogant and incapable to repair, the took 8 days to detect the problem and since then always saying will come and repair but never turn up. Whenever we call them they never pick up the call. I have been customer of ifb since 1999 but most horrible phase of experience i am facing right now.

Complaint no.[protected] on 08.8.2017 for getting repair of my top load washing machine which was in amc from 11.03.2017. But unfortunately till to date i could not get it repaired further i went to the service centre personally and there i found that my amc details were not uploaded and i had messaged in whatsup the amc document. Service centre promissed that they would sent the techn., and after thorough pursue with the service centre two persons came to my home and declared that one part has to be replaced and my complaint was cancelled without assigning any reasons and again i made a complaint in online with sl no.[protected] on 23.8.2017. After that i went to the service centre again they told that their techn. Would come and attend the complaint. But till to date ie.27.8.2017 nobody came to my home for repair.
It is very negligent attitude of the service centre and i would llike proceed the consumer forum for redressal of my complaint.
