Dear sir/madam, I purchased a microwave (20sc2) on august'2014 from fairdeal (Behala). At the time of demonstration, your stuff (From induja home solution pvt. Ltd) told that in microwave only borosil utensils are applicable with cover. So i bought 2 sets of borosil utesil (4 pieces) from them. I cooked curry in square borosil bowl with cover.. After finishing curry.. When i took out that bowl from microwave.. Then that cover is useless.. That means cover became curve.. So now what i do? If company stuff misguide me in that way.. Then how i will purchase other product of ifb.. With regards, Mrs. Mona bhattacharyya Ph. No. [protected]

Hi, I have an IFB front loading washing machine (Senorita DX 5.5 kg). I also have an AMC with IFB authorized service center. My machine broke down on 4th December 2014. I complained to the service center on the same day and it is 16th December today but I am still without any service visit to fix my machine. This is a very sorry state of affair as we buy AMC contract assuming that a quick service will be provided. (Complaint number[protected] Moreover today when I tried to call IFB representative (Mr Arun from Vaishnavi Enterprises at D 178 Sector 10 NOIDA), he talked to me in an abusive manner using foul language. This has come as a shock and disappointment to me. As a loyal customer I have the right to complain when in over 12 days I have not received service, but no one has the right to talk to me in an abusive foul language. I urge you to please take prompt and stern action against the above mentioned service center as it gives a bad name to your otherwise excellent brand. Meeta Vigh

Date: 15-12-14 I Mr. Ravichandra V. Patil residing In G- 2 Marisa apts, Behind Durga petrol pump, Fatorda Margao, Age: 59 yrs. Occupation: Professor on 26-11-14 along with my family approached M/S Lotlikar Enterprises, shop no 8, Grace church estate, opposite Muncipal garden, Margao and we demanded for Oven Toaster Grill (OTG)as our only purpose for the purchase was to bake a cake and biscuits and to cook pizzas, however, the salesman of the above named shop convinced us to buy a microwave oven as it a latest equipment and it will fulfill all our requirements, as like baking a cake, biscuits etc. thus we got convinced and ordered the IFB convection microwave oven Model: 20BC4 amounting Rs 11000\- including tax. On 27-11-14 around 11.00 am the product was home delivered at my address mentioned above and the amount of RS 11000\- was paid immediately by cash. On 27th November itself a person from IFB Company named Felix (mobile: [protected])came and gave us a demo about the usage. Accordingly, we tried to bake a cake but the resultant cake was not good as it was completely burnt. For consequently 2-3 days we tried hard to bake a cake but the result was not satisfactory. On 8th December the same service boy suggested to bake the cake at 160 degree Celsius for 40 mins through phone call and he will come to see the result. We did try accordingly but the result was same unsatisfactory which was also noticed by Felix when he visited our place. He informed the IFB Company about the default in the microwave oven and said necessary action will be taken. We also informed M/s Lotlikar Enterprises who is a dealer of IFB Company about the microwave oven supplied by him to us and requested him to replace the product. But he did not agree as he is helpless and suggested us to contact the company. Since 8th December there is no response from the IFB Company in respect of our grievance. I am facing trouble since I have invested Rs 11000 and even though my requirements are not fulfilled making me unhappy. I kindly request the company to replace the product totally with an Oven Toaster Grill (OTG) or pay back the money as soon as possible. Thanking You!

From the first day of purchase washing machine admiral 7012W is not working properly. We had complaint on your customer care many times and senior technician came but problem is not solved and they had also taken machine to service center but problem still persist.

I own a ifb digital drive 7kg model and it is not working now. I have raised complaint with your customer care[protected] on nov 21st. After multiple escalations and calling the service person directly multiple times, i had one visit from the local service person and he claimed that the drum has to be replaced. I had asked him to replace it, but no response from him. After multiple calls, he still claims that the part is not in. I call up customercare and they say the complaint has been escalated and will be addressed the same day.in fact. I get false promises and commitments from the customer care reps on the date this issue will be fixed. It is pathetic to know that i am not able to talk to someone who has the authority to call the shots Since the day i registered the complaint, i have been throttled between customer care and the local service dealer to understand the status. Very frustrated with this experience with ifb. There was a reason for me to a ifb customer, but now that reason is fading very soon. I have called up the following service persons multiple times and no response. No body even has the courtesy to pick up calls. [protected] - priya (Ifb area manager) [protected] - ravi ganesh (Ifb manager) [protected] - rajasekhar (Ifb service manager) [protected] - suresh (Ifb service) I know the original cost for hte machine included the warranty cost as well. So ifb has taken up my money upfront and provides no service. This is a pure violation of consumer protection act and falls into cheating fraud. I am very alarmed at the rate of the denial of service by ifb after eating away the consumer's money in the name of warranty. Complaint raised on : nov 21st 2014

Brand new machine purchased in oct-14. After 4 washes machine is malfunctioning. We have already compliant on 10/11/14 but till date the problem is not resolved. Our compliant no. 14229268 dtd 10/11/14. I kindly request you please free replace the brand new one or else refund back our actual money. We don't want to experiments on my machines. Your service engineer who visited many times taken many parts from the machines & supplied wrong spares this shows capability of ifb. Warm rgds Srinivas [protected]

My IFB customer ID is 2945767. I had registered a complaint with the IFB regarding improper functioning of a washing machine which in within the warranty period long ago. The token number was 11910104. After a lapse of nearly two week a technician came and attended the repair works and I had signed in a paper in the evening. A message was received in my phone saying to deliver a message to certain number if I was satisfied with the repair works done to the washing machine which i didn't comply As I was not satisfied. The matter that the complaint was not rectified by the technician was reported to the IFB franchise at Trivandrum over phone. No one turned up and they won't attend the calls from my phone after that. So on 4th December I had again made a complaint to the IFB over the phone number[protected] and the token no. received is 11977627. Now one week has elapsed since then. No one had attended till date[protected]. This is the second similar instance, I am facing from the IFB, just for the purchase of a washing machine. I request that if the complaint can be rectified it should be done at the earliest. No phone calls will rectify the complaint and so avoid unwanted soothing phone calls as far as possible in this case and action is that necessitate.

I bought an AMC contract for IFB Elena DX machine on 14/10/13 till 13/10/15 for Rs.3539/-. And recently I started facing my house fuse going off when the washing machine runs. I opened a Ticket 14418084 with customer care on 6/12/2014. The technician visited and said the motor needs to be replaced. When I asked him if this covered in the AMC, after thinking long he said Yes. After changing the motor he said, the motor got water splashed over while washing the floor which is a condition not covered in the AMC. So I need to pay Rs.4750/- for it. This was surprising me because, the washing machine is placed in unused 3rd bathroom of my 3BHK flat which was not requiring any floor wash for past one year. Even if water splash is the case for motor failure, Is that not a design fault from IFB? The bottom of washing machine is designed open and you also sold me a stand to place the machine over and allow all circumstances for a water splash on motor. Then on top to this, You sell AMC(and enjoy it like sweet money for no service) contracts and deny service on flimsy grounds for which customers can't be held responsible? The technician said I need to talk with branch head for queries. The Service head([protected]@[protected]) is an intelligent woman, who said I used the machine in unsubscribed conditions(!!!) and so the AMC is not going to cover. Atlast I ended up paying Rs.4750/- for the motor inspite of having AMC and using the machine in normal & regular conditions any customer will use. The IFB machine was working fine for the past 6years which made me think they're a decent company. This ugly face of IFB is making me think they are one more in the stinky lot. |

I bought a dish washer on December 2013 and the machine was delivered to my home after one week. When the machine was delivered there was no powder delivered together with the machine so i have ordered the powdered and it took another three months to delivered to my home and i started using the machine on may 2013 and the machine was spoiled on june and i called the service center in nagercoil.After one week one person from nagercoil service center came to my home and take a look at the machine and he told there is a rat bite in the main wire which is getting connected to the board and we will replace that and we will keep a filter so that the rat wont enter the machine again. He told us in order to get it changed you need to bring the machine to our office. And we bring the machine to the service station and one week there is no response from them and when we called them they told us there is some issue in some of the other parts as well which we have ordered in Madurai which will take some time and we waited few more days and few days later the agent called us and told us we need to pay around 6000 rs in order to take back our machine. When i checked with him why we have to pay 6000 rs give me the breakdown for that. He told me that rat bite is there even inside the machine and we have replaced those parts also which we ordered from Madurai. I asked him to send me the pictures of the parts which has rat bite and the bill copy for the spare parts which he has ordered.I waited for two days and i didn't receive any documents, Hence i told him i cannot pay any amount. First thing is if he is changing any other parts he should have consulted with me first and second thing is how can he get spare parts from outside when he is a authorized service center for IFB.IFB should provide the spare parts which need to be replaced. He tried to cheat me using his best tactics and at last he told me he cannot give the machine unless we pay 2000 rs. I agreed to pay that and he told me he will send back the machine as it is already repaired and he took 5 days to send back the machine to my house. When he delivered the machine i asked him to check whether it is Working or not. The machine was send back with the same condition as it was taken from my home.He didn't do any repair and he simply bring back the machine and i called him again and after 2 days one person came to my home and he fixed the issue.He said there is a rate bite in the main wire and i will replace it and he said one nastle is open that why the rate is entering into the machine and he fixed that and he said here after there should not be any problem. Now again the machine is not working. I called the service station again and one person came to my house and he checked and he told again there is a rat bite and you need to pay the repair cost if you want to do Service and we need to order the parts from Madurai. I have never encountered such a issue with any of the company. I have other products from other brands where they i have seen good response from the service center. IFB service center is the worst i have seen ever and even i have raised the complaint to the IFB sales manager and there is no good response from him as well.

Please note that, i was having trouble with my front load Senetor washing machine for last 2 months. I registered my complaint and a technician came, and went without resolving the issue fully. I then got a message from IFB that my complaint has been resolved. I again made a complaint, and then again the technician came and same thing happened. This has been happening for last 2 months. Finally, the technician told me that, there is a problem with the timer and that he will come and change the timer. Again, I got a message from IFB that my complaint has been resolved. I am still waiting for the timer to be changed. I am really dissapointed with the after sales service of IFB.

check the complaint board, complaint dated 2&3 dec, what for you are keeping these board and complaint reg form this form i am sending second or third time, nobodies attending, this last msg for you .will see in consumer court.
ok bye

I purchased a washing machine from IFB. The service center is very nearby, about 3km far. I contacted them for about 3 days to come to solve an issue. They told have to change one part of the equipment. They have given 4 years service warranty and 10 years warranty for parts. They didnt even come after 2 days and told have to pay an amount for the part. Their service is very bad and the technician is misbehaving. Now they are also telling have pay for service also. Till now I didn't get my washing machine repaired. The service center is FREEZE INDIA ENGINEERS. Please take this complaint into serious issue. They are cheating us. Till now they didnt respond.
