IFB Industries Complaints & Reviews

Just 4 years over. Machine is scrap. IFB Service person asking to either spent around Rs 9000 or give to him at scrap value…… Perhaps buying such a costly machine was a historical blunter …. It is shameful selling third rate products at hefty prices by a company like IFB…. Regards Ravindranathan

My dishwasher is not working since 5 weeks. Complaint was lodged on telephone and the service technician came after one week and after checking he told that the water pump is faulty and he will bring a new pump. So fa r he has not come and I don’t know whom to contact next....

Dear Sirs It is again with great disappointment that i am posting this. My first service request was lodged on 23rd Dec'15 vide Ticket # [protected] dated 23rd Dec'15. After repeatedly connecting with the provided franchisee and technician contacts, someone came home to check my washing machine after 5 days, but after a casual glance simply said that the tube connecting to the water source tap needs to be fixed so that the actual problem can then be identified once water supply was enabled. But he also said that he did not have that tube spare part and would get it from the franchisee office and return by evening. Nothing happened after that. Again we called next day, but no response. After repeated tries, the franchisee office finally responded saying they did not have spare part and will come once they have it. Again a long period of inactivity So i used the Online Web option to register my complaint/feedback on the 29th Dec'15. Again nothing happened. So after chasing the franchisee for some days again, finally a plumber technician was sent to our house who replaced the tube spare part charging Rs 150/=. He then said that the original washing machine problem needed to be looked into and that he was not the right technician for that. Again we had to call the franchisee to inform these updates and request for the original or any other technician to come and get our washing machine repaired. But again they said they will send some one and also inform us in next hour But till date no one has come. Y'day, i called the[protected] number and they informed that the ticket has been closed/canceled. When i informed that even after 2 weeks the problem has not been solved, he raised a new ticket # [protected] dated 4th Jan'15 and also escalated the problem at our insistence. Again we called the franchisee to get some technician to repair our problem. They said they will call back within an hour and arrange for repair. Now it is more than 24 hours since that call and NO ONE HAS TURNED UP. As i write this email, it is almost 15 days since the original complaint and my problem is still pending - I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO USE THE WASHING MACHINE FOR THE LAST 2 WEEKS. What kind of customer service is this - when will i be able to use my washing machine after repair. or will i be able to use it at all. Can someone look into this and ensure speedy redressal. I am now trying to find if there is any grievance committee or ombudsman to whom i can complain at this total lack of empathy and service mindedness. Please help Regards Gopal / Arunkumar Mob: [protected]

I have a washing model mentioned above. I have been using this machine from past 8 yrs. Now there was a problem and raise a complaint with customer care and they have sent the technician he came saw and repaired it but in course of repairing he disturbed the door and needs to be replaced, i told ok do it he charged me some 450/- rupees and again within 10 days there was a problem with the door i called the customer-care and this time he told the inside rim is gone, he replaced and charged me Rs. 350/ and again the machine was not fine i called he charged me service charge Rs. 480. All these technicians were from M/s HARI SUSHMA SERVICES ( AUTHORISED SERVICE CENTRE FOR IFB) Here i want to mention that iam really fedup calling your customer care centre My machine is still not working and nobody is attending to it inspite of reminders over phone to Hari sushma services several times. This kind of service is not expected or accepted from company like IFB. Hence i request you to address my problem on priority.

Bought IFB Washing machine (Senorita DX) from Vasanth & Co Tambaram, in 2010. Within three months of time had to replace the Circuit board under warranty which really lost the impression I had on IFB. Post replacement of the PCB had no issues until Dec'15. Issue Started on 17th Of Dec'15 wherein the machine starts and hauls within 5 minutes and thereon nothing will progress... The clothes inside the drum fully soaked in water to be cleared manually, with all the water left inside to be cleaned after. Complaints logged immediately and service tech reached a day after and replaced the PCB for Rs. 5150/- and promised that the PCB will be covered under warranty for 6 months. The very next day the same problem started with the machine. Again a complaint has been logged in and it took 5 days for the service tech to attend the call and during investigation he has damaged the drain plug, also added 3 packets of descaling powder for Rs. 430/- which is not relevant to the fault (The initial service tech has told that the drum is clean and doesn't require any descale agent) which is controversial. Again it took another 4 days for him to confirm that it is the problem with PCB and post his Manager's confirmation it will be getting replaced which made us to wait for another 3 days, but remains unattended. Again the service tech 1 attended the fault after we get into their office in person. But still the issue is not resolved... Really very pathetic situation... Very much dissatisfied with the customer service that IFB is providing...

I have made a complaint to IFB washingmachine. They allotted a ticket number.No response received. After that again we have made another complaint and received another ticket no. This time one so called technician came to our house and identified that drum was the problem so asked us to wait for sometime to change it.Then usual online requests another technician came to our house i found that the drum is in good condition. and another problem and informed us he could solve the problem. Now the bearings were changed and he certified that the machine is working condition.When the technician came out of our house the sleeping customer care started to call me (i was @ office) whether the complaint was resolved.Without knowing the position i asked her to call after an hour.She tries to simply close the complaint.What a great people are working in IFB . In Chennai it is the high time for public to change their flood destroyed goods.I am requesting the people whoever purchase new goods first go the netizens and online forums like this to check the service conditions of consumer goods.

Horrible Customer Service I raised a complaint on the 29th of December 2015 (Ticket number [protected]) for the door knob not functioning and general servicing. I was informed it will attended in 24 hours. It is more than 48 hours now and I havn't had a word from IFB. The service is going from Bad to WORSE... I am better off with either Siemens or Bosch... When I called your toll free number they only want to talk about how much it will cost for a technician to come home. ZERO empathy... Spoke to Suresh the floor supervisor and he was horrible... No apology for the delay neither did he want to help me out with the problem.

This is the last time any IFB product entered my home, it's been crazy getting my washing machine complaint even get registered, let alone the repair. First the technician comes with a job sheet of a microwave when it was told a washing machine job to the centre. Then nobody shows up, all we get are calls demanding bill which we said is at home and available. A technician calls up and says keep 5000 rupees ready whereas the product is in full warranty. It's been more than a week since the complaint got registered which also was a tough task with wrong numbers and long unanswered calls. Please expedite.
