IFB Industries Complaints & Reviews

The issue that I have experienced was: Such a worst experience with IFB. I have logged a compliant on 13th June 2021 for IFB washing machine and they said they have change the Failure motherboard which covers under AMC. All my tickets are getting closed and no response either from customer care and such a rude and unethical response zonal manager end.
No point in contact or call backs form either, after multiple follow ups from our end. Never expected it from IFB of this kind of service. No proper process of ticketing or escalation process.

All these below tickets are waste of my time.

My Ticket number is [protected]. I had raised a complaint stating that the machine is stopping in between and showing "dP Er" message on display panel. Your executive came and inspected and told that the person from IFB who changed my drum had done some connections in a wrong way and hence one part has damaged. It needs to be changed. After two days he brought the part and changed it and after testing he left. One hour after he left the same...

No manner to talk to customer
Don't know how to provide customers demo
When said you don't know demo the person said cal at customer care and ask for another person to visit for demo and installation

Dear Sir/Ma'am,

I am Manikandan and a resident of Chennai, Tamil Nadu. I own
Elina Aqua SX 6 kg washing machine of IFB.

I would like to report an incident of mis-selling and cheating of one
of your authorized franchises (for services). We connected with IFB
toll free number for some repair services for my washing machine and
people from IDE Enterprises turned up.

They inspected the washing machine and said, water sensor, machine
front door and suspension have to be changed. They indicated that,
suspension would cost Rs 2, 500/- and water sensor would cost Rs
1, 500/-. In total, the repair charges would come around Rs. 8, 500/- .
They suggested to take AMC package costing Rs 10, 800/- instead of
repairing each part separately as it covers the cost of machine parts
for 2 years and we agreed.

Since, we were suspicious of higher charges quoted by IDE Enterprises,
we checked the prices of water sensor, suspension etc. online. In
addition, we spoke to our known technicians. Later, we found the
following:

1) Market rate of Water sensor is Rs 500-600. However, the
technicians from IDE Enterprises had quoted Rs 1, 500

2) Market rate of Suspension is Rs 1500. However, the technicians from
IDE Enterprises had quoted Rs 2, 500.

3) AMC charges collected by IDE Enterprises is Rs 10, 800. This is way
too higher than the AMC charges shown in IFB website (~ Rs 5000).

4) The bill given by IDE Enterprises didn’t give any breakup for
repair services (attached)

From the above, it is amply clear that IDE Enterprises intentionally
inflated the prices of spare parts to make me buy the AMC package.
Also, IDE Enterprises collected double the AMC charges quoted on IFB
website.

This tantamounts to mis-selling and cheating . We bought the IFB
product considering your quality of product and service. If such
mis-selling and cheating happen, how will I buy a IFB product in
future? I have lost confidence in IFB product and services. I deeply
regret buying your product. I never expected such a bad experience
from IFB.

Request to look into the issue and refund the excess charges collected
from me. I don’t want AMC. Pls charge for the spares and services
correctly and bill me. If the issue is not rectified, I promise that I
will not buy any IFB product in future and will not recommend IFB to
any of my known friends & relatives circles.

Thanks.

Hello,

We bought fully automatic top load 7 KG IFB washing machine in Dec 2018.
Beginning it used to take heavy load and finish ok and by heavy load I meant not more than the capacity of the machine but the company suggested number of clothes.

From last six odd months we are seeing that while drying the drum inside is hitting forcibly to the walls of the machine body.
1. We pause and distribute the clothes evenly
2. and sometimes take few trousers out so that it can run without any issues.
It used run okay after we make the above two steps but lately it doesn't work at all no matter whatever we do, someone always have to stand beside the machine waiting for it make that loud hitting noise and switch it on and off and distribute the clothes evenly and take few clothes out, sometimes it still doesn't work and then we take it out and hang outside.

We raised multiple complaints with the company still no resolution to the issue. Company service executives come and ask so many questions and if even one answer is not what they expect then they say it is because of that what we did one single thing wrong. Sometimes it about not being the company provided stand, sometimes height of the water tank, sometimes how many number of clothes we put, sometimes what kind of detergent powder we use and the list goes on and on.

If by any chance they resolve the issue (for previous complaints) they come and add something to the machine like filter or stand or something and charge for it and then they do the service mentioning that without that purchase we won't get the free service even though the machine is under warranty.

The machine is still under warranty and the few days ago we raised another complaint for the drum beating issue the service executive said try to minimize the load and use it, if the issue still comes again then they will do something. But yet minimizing the load also doesn't help as I explained in the beginning.

I am not sure if posting this complaint here can help us resolve the issue or not but I am hoping so.

Product: IFB Top load 7KG fully automatic washing machine
Model: TL -SDW 7.0KG AQUA

Thanks & Regards

I am not satisfied, more vibration, water leakage

My washing machine has warenty and it was getting trouble everytime..
It was very much disappoint to me for always complainting..

We had lodged a complaint with the Customer service for our washing machine, and were guaranteed assistance within 48 hours. However, its been more than 48 hours and not only were we not contacted by them, we are now not even able to contact them. Even after repeatedly mentioning to prioritize the request, they generally don't adhere to their mentioned timespan. We are not sure if the delay is due to the pandemic, or the fact that we are covered under an AMC expiring this month.
We have experienced this in the past as well. Well, not always, there were absolutely no delays when it came to renewal of the AMC.

I have a washing machine ifb diva for 10 years above old I want EL 1306 J6 belt which has been damaged. Please an option to buy online

I have ordered IFB Essentials Dishwasher tablets on May 23rd, 2021 vide order no. [protected], with an assurance that the order will be processed soon.
However it is now more than 40 days and IFB is yet to update the status of my order despite several reminders to their customer care. Their only response is we will forward your complaint to the concerned Dept.
This is distressing.

IFB is a Multinational Company deals in household product range.
IFB service is pathetic in Mumbai India and no one is really ready to take the ownership after sales during warranty period.
Complaint is lodged on 12th June 2021 for IFB washing machine worth almost Rs. 40, 000/45, 000 front door fully automatic machine.
After so much of deliberation engineer arrived at site after a week giving pandemic, vaccination reasons. Inspected machine without proper tool kits(dryer etc. was provided by consumer).
Finally concluded on the gut feel that one part is faulty which will be replaced by company for which he’ll go and check their stores. And if available they’ll replace it. After a week trying to reach the numbers from IFB Service guys we got no response for unanswered calls.
After a month the situation is same. Don’t know from where this part you ppl are going to purchase US, India, Japan, China.
But I’m disappointed by seeing, experiencing the service in India.
Please don’t give all these Corona reasons.
I would like to file a case against IFB to refund entire product cost and also pay for mental harassment, worst service experience and false commitment.

Please

I purchased ifb senorita 5.5 washing machine on 2011. After 4 years PCB become damaged and the service technician charged 4000 rupees for replacing them. After seven years I heared some sound from the machine, so I register the complaint. The service technician just open the top side of the machine and told me the two drums became damaged and want to replace them for an amount of rupees 12000. My machine is only seven years old so I want to check the bearings and replace them. They didn't like that. After too much phone calls they replace the bearings. but they damaged my machine by cutting the wires to motor ( i can't test the machine in presence of them because they ask me to use the machine after 24 hours due to the glue in inlet pipe ). Now my machine didn't work due to the complaint of spider clamp. I again register complaint to resolve it. But the technician told me you didn't get spider clamp alone they will replace the whole unit (drum with clamp ) for an amount of rupees 8500. I didnt agree that. With my past experience with them i know they are cheeting the ifb customers. You can check your market growth of ifb washing machine in Kerala, Kollam section. If it indownwards that is duet to the cheating of service centre in kollam. As a customer i need a better after sale service from you. If I didn't get that how I believe your products. Please take an action to get spider drum clamp for my machine at a reasonable rate.

I bought the IFB 6.5 kg 5 Star Fully Automatic Top Load Silver (TL-RDS/RDSS 6.5 kg Aqua)

Date of purchase: Oct 19, 2020
Delivered: Oct 21, 2020
Installed or start using: 20 Nov 2020

I have been using the machine for the past 6 months now. Initially, I do not have any problems but for the past 2 months I am hardly using it due to the following issues:
First, the issue started with Noise troubling
then Drainage issue (that is resolved)
now again it's making too much NOISE, seems the drum is hitting the side plate.

I am totally frustrated now, it's only been 6 months. I thought it will not create any issue in the last 2 years but it was wrong.

I can not continue using this machine therefore, I have requested FOR REPLACEMENT but no one is replying to me in that section.

I tried to pull out the invoice from FLIPKART but some could not find the invoice option so here is the screenshot of my order: https://nimb.ws/JMPRwu

Please review my request and do the need full.

My washing machine can't able to store water for cleansing. I had called the Ifb agents but after repeated reminders they are not willing to come as the washing machine is in warranty period. Now it's been a month we are facing this water logging problem.

Since April 2021 dishwasher not drying and keeping the utensils dry and warm after wash. So we stopped using the dishwasher. Once lockdown withdrawn we contacted your technician, Mr. Amarjeet Singh, last week who did the work but unsatisfactorily. We requested him to visit us and sort out the problem. He never keeps his time. Even though he did come twice problem persisted. This morning (29th June) he visited at 10 AM without any tangible result for the problem. He left assuring that he would visit again after 12 noon. It is 2.45 PM but no trace of him or no phone either. Our phone to the Delhi service team Ms. Manshi remains unanswered.

We have kept all our used crockeries and utensils inside the dishwasher anticipating that we will wash it in the presence of your technician. Alas, no technician; no phone either from him or no sign of your technician visiting us yet! How do you think our problem will be solved?
