IFB Industries Complaints & Reviews

My IFB washing machine has a problem. Its under AMC until 2014 and for the past 2 weeks its not been working.
Fault has been identifed as motor, but since no spare parts are available the franchise at Chennai has not repaired this.

All phone calls and complaints are only mere numbers. Very poor service.

Pl take care. Sales is always good, but service is always poor whether its Indian or MNC.

i did a blunder of buying ifb product couple of years back on 20 th of dec i lodged a complaint for broken belt of ifb diva ,after making around 100 calls to costmer care, sevice centre,gitanjali branch manager but till date havnt got any visit and today i am told by the costmer care centre that complaint has been cancelled by sevice centre , for yor ref my complaint no is 10319204 and costmer id is 2737704

I registered a complaint on 6th December then again on 21st December as my washing machine has been making a lot of noise. i have called on every possible number everyone gives me someone else's contact number to call. They promise that a technician is on his way but no one shows up. I got so frustrated that i asked them if they even knew what repair had to be made turns out that the part required is only not available they had been lying for so long they didn't even know what had to be done. I will take them to consumer court also if no action is taken asap.

I Gave complaint to IFB customer care one month ago. Still they didn't solve the problem.
The complaint number is 9920520. & the customer number is : 2354933.
The server agent phone number is : [protected]
I have called to service agent 4 times & customer care to three times. Still they r not responding properly.

Drain system not working, water remain logged in tub or container.. even after repeated contcts and calls problem not resoved and remain unattended even after almost 1 month.....no one takes responsibility in solving....citing the excuse that spare part or whatever may be that is not available wit them and telling that it has been ordered at depot.. And the fact is that the depot is only...only 35 kms from bhilai....yet the part has not come till date....
dont know when it will b solved and we will be able to use the machine again...

bhaskar,bhilai

We have ifb sonareta washing machine.

I have also subscibed for amc as my machine is not under warrantee.

1) the customer service is very poor over phone they will not provide proper info
2) service personal does not attend call simply talks over phone and tells no spares available i will come after 1 or 2 weeks.

Ifb should look-into

To Whomsoever It May Concern:

My name is Vikrant Agarwal, i am located in Mumbai and i had purchased an IFB Toploader Washing Machine 6501RB 6.2. After few months later from purchase the internal drainage pipe leaked. I registered the complaint and few days later the representatives appear from your service provider name "Global". These guys comes with the hands shaking as they were on holidays, they ask for screw driver from us to open the washing machine. Can you believe that.

Now when they diagnosed the problem they did a cheap job on it... they had us buy the 5 Rs wala FeviQuick and just bonded the drainage pipe. I had asked them to replace and they started giving me absurd reasons that it was not covered in warranty which when i confronted with person incharge in the office named "Manjunath" told me that it will be replaced but it will take time. I was okay with it.

Now since that time, In OCTOBER 2012 and this time December 2012 it has not been replaced and the pipe has already started to leak. When i log the complaint... it is marked attended and closed by the same guy Manjunath.

I tried calling some guys who looks after service providers but they don't respond to phone calls - some one with name Shashank and Sono - numbers - [protected] and 30491825

This is last request and final warning. if my drainage pipe is not replaced within a weeks time i am going to formal complaint in Consumer Forum with all the above information and evidence.

Complaint no. 10279980

I am really fed up with the pathetic service of IFB. Despite lodging the complaint for over twelve days, my washing machine is still not rectified. Filmsy reasons are provided by the area customer manager and keeps promising to get the machine repaired, which are not kept once the call is completed. I have called umpteen number of times to IFB call centre and the customer care manager. This is putting me through lot of agony and distress despite spending more than Rs. 32000/-.

In the end, I am helpless and at the mercy of IFB India. I hope IFB is reading all these complaints and understand how much reputational damage it is incurring for its products.

Dear All ,

complaint no. 10300441

Currently I am living at following address-

Kindly resolve the issue as earliest.

I have an ifb microwave oven. It is damaged for about 4 months. I have submit complant on ifb site once and their worker comed and opened my oven and said that its machine is damaged, you should replace it. I paid him money and he said that he will return in 10 days. But he again never sees. Ifrom then i submit complaints again and again but they are not responding. There customer care is not responding.

I purchased a microoven on 10 Nov 2012, which was delivered by M/s EValue, Opposite Gymkhana, Pinto Arcade, Campal, Panaji, Goa which was delivered on 11 Nov 2012. It was installed by engineer on 12 Nov 2012 and he notice that base wheel is missing. Same day evening I complaint to dealer and he promised me to procure same and to call me. After 03 days the microoven starting giving a harsh sound. I complaint to dealer on No [protected], he gave me service centre No [protected] which I called for last one week but no one came to repair it I also told same to dealer again. I also lodge complaint in customer care, the intimated me vide email from [protected]@ifbglobal on 04 Dec that my complaint No is 10276710 and will be solve by two days but not solved till date

AMC service, response & resolution time is very very poor.

Every time i call the IFB customer care related to a service, they will humbly take up our complaint and will provide us a complaint no. They committ us saying that engineer will respond and attend the issue in 48 hours.

But no one will respond till we call back after few days. After our continuos calls, they will say that our issue has been assigned to the local franchise at chennai for service. They will also say that this call will be escalated to the higher levels from customer care and they will convince us somehow. The moment you believe them and keep the phone down thats it. You are again fooled.

There will be no response for few days.The franchise no will be busy always or no response. Finally after few weeks some engineer will visit and resolve the problem. If we quarrel at the engineer, he will say that the call has been assigned to him yesterday only and he dont know anything about the issue and bla bla bla....

I had registered 2 problems in the last 6 months, the first issue was resolved after a months time and the 2nd issue is yet to be resolved after a week form the date of complaint.

Beware of AMC services from IFB who will promise to give moon but nothing will be provided in reality.

Only tensions, loss of time and money for customers like us. I hope this forum will help others to be aware of such issues and provide me justice.

My IFB Microwave was not working and I called IFB support line for Repair. They sent one Agent to repair that. The person (Md. Bashir) came and went back with a story that he will check the parts at office and comes back. After releatative calls he came back after 7 days and he took the microwave and till today he didnot came back with repaired microwave.

Each day my family is calling the IFB call center and the Agency DA Associates ( Phone num :(91 40 [protected] and every day they are telling new stories . But for last 20 days, I am not getting the microwave back.

I have the 1 year service warrant from IFB and I am falling under that. My latest complaint number is : 10291587 on 6/12/12. And I have made several complains for this negligence.

This is a clear negligence of Service & Support.though I have paid for that. This is breach of contract where this kind of service is not expected.

Most funny thing : I have sent the mail to [protected]@ifbglobal.com and that is giving failure notice.

I have purchased 17 ltr ifb grill microwave on 12/11/2012 and i personally called for the demo to customer care 0n 14 nov 2012. I have contacted twenty eight times but no result so far. Please do the need full immediately.

Pls dont buy IFB Microwave. Service is Pathetic. There is a service centre for Thiruvanmiyur area. they dont attend the call half the time.

The incharge name is Saravanan and Madhivannan . When we call Madhivannan, he says he wont respond calls after 6 pm.

They canvas to pay amount for AMCs to show their performance. But once we give the cheque, they abscond. Also the technicians say that all parts are replacable. But when we speak to Customer care , they say only few parts are replacable.

Our kind advice is not to go for any IFB products in chennai area especially in Thiruvanmiyur.

I registred a complaint on 03/11/2012 vide complaint no.9791854 to ifb but till now no response

Hi sir/madam

I have been using ifb fully automatic washing machine from eight years, i had just purchased because of the brand name, but service engineers in himachal are spoiling the brand name.
I mean if i m buying one product of ifb that will be my first and last product of ifb. Why

The reason is poor/poorer/poorest after sales service by ifb people.

My compliant wss regarding loud sound by washing machine while washing which seems like washing machine can blast any time. So i had registerd a complaint two months back complaint number was 9675464.

After a weeks time service engineer comes and says the drum has to be replaced and the drum is out of stock. Know the time has passed away we had a word with the engineer his name is arvind. He says their is no drum with the company but i will change on my own rather registing complaint with ifb.
Wich means that he will steal the part and he will ask payment and he will change when he has time. Till know nothing has been done kindly see it
