Future buyers of IFB Washing Machines may please note that there are many hidden expenses when you buy a IFB Washing Machines. At the time of installation you need to purchase filters, covers, stand, washing powders & mixers without which you will be threatened that the washing machine may give problems. During warranty period you will have to buy descaling powders"DESCAL" and "Protecta" which is being sold to protect your washing machine, and it will cost you a fortune. Post warranty you had it.

IFB WASHING MACHINE — not attended in A.M.C period

i had washing machine with A M C for 2 years but it is not attended even after 3-4 complaints from last 4-5 days. on asking u responded that we are more intrested in acheaving more A M C .poor after sale services by u persons.

My IFB washing machine was not working during the month of Nov. 2009. With great difficulty I managed to contact local (Chennai - 73) IFB service centre. They sent a service man Shri B.Arun Kumar ( mobile [protected]) on[protected]. He informed that since the machine is 10-years old, its motor, door lock are required to be replaced. However he made it to work by cleaning the door lock. He suggested that if I enter into AMC he will get all the help in replacing the motor and door lock after about 45-days from that day. Since the cost of the spares is more than the AMC amount. I entered into AMC (Customer id no. 448085) for the period[protected] to[protected]. I booked a complaint on the toll free no.[protected] on[protected] that the IFB washing machine is not working properly. They sent a service machic Shri Raja on[protected]. I explined the assurance given by Shri Arun Kumar that motor and door lock need to be replaced. He smiling accepted the intention and informed that within 2-days they will be replaced. Some other Arun Kumar came on[protected] and informed that the spares will be brought within 2-days and replaced. But on enquiry with the local IFB incharge Shri Thirugnanam (Mobile [protected]) there is no need to replace motor and he will send some other service person Shri Dhanasekar immediately and do the needful. But nothing fruitful happened till date ie.[protected]. It is a fraud on the part of IFB service persons to give false assurance and asking us to enter into AMC and not responding afterwards. IFB top management should look into these malpractices and avoid hardship to customers.
Yours,

I have purchased IFB Microwave Oven 25SC1. I have purchase on 23-8-06 from vasanth and co 16/B-A south usman chennai(bill number 40010).We found after 2 months the oven not working.Mekash enterprises recieved the oven from us who was a service dealer.for one the Mekash enterprises in eldams road tenampet kept without proper response we could accept the oven without service from Mekash.It happened to take back the oven due to the reson of delay in retuning the oven to us. The oven was returned in worst condition (like cockroaches eaten the part of oven)I have lodged a complaint with the IFB Customer Service Center on 19.9.2008. After 3 month the person came and asked me to sign AMC Conract owords the oven i agreed and paid Rs 1396 (reciept cum invoice number 23492).The complaint No is 3623062 d 14.10.2009. . Since then I have been following up regularly with the IFB Customer Support Center as well as various people engaged in customer services. I have spoken to several people including the head their Appliance group . However, no result. One person is pointing at others. I have never experienced such a level of harassment from other manufacturers. This is extremely frustrating.Still the oven is with the person who has taken through customer care.Since the oven is taken after 2month from the date purchase now they are telling that some parts are missing this also i could not accept and tollerate.I have one more complaint number2785983 dt 3.3.2009.Now the personnel suggesting us to go for new one finnally.I am not financially sound person in order to purchase such branded equipment like IFB .I am informing the only reason is i have high esteem towards IFB.Even if you provide brand new 25sc1model oven to me in my case.it will be a satisfaction.My contact no is [protected].

Post sale service in India is very poor .It is a high time that strict legal action is taken against the comapny if they fail to provide a post sale service. The action could be hefty financial penality to the termination of licence of the company.

IFB Washing Machine — Lack fo response on new product

I bought a washing machine on 6 dec, from an IFB point on M G Road, Delhi. I was promised that it would be delivered and installed in 24hrs. The delivery took place, with one man who could not even carry the producut inside a ground floor house, he then dumped it in our drawing room. To date and till now, no one has come to install the product. I even called customer care and they informed me that it would be done on 8th Dec. Nothing has happened and there is a compelte lack of repsonse or action from the company . Mr.Devgan the perosn incharge at IFB point doe snto even take the calls on his mobile, what kind of a company this is I wonder-I really made a msitale by buying this product.

IFB WASHING MACHINE — Lack of action on complaint

My washing Machine is on AMC. It had gone out of order on 31-1-09. I was out of station and my wife lodged a complaint on local number[protected]. The complaint was noted but no complaint number was given. I returned on 2-2-09 morning and reminded them about the pending complaint. I was told to register my complaint on[protected] or 39004321which I did and was given complaint number 2684321. Since then I have been telephonically reminding the Toll free number as well as the local number but despite promises the machine has not been attended yet. Could you please advise what is holding action on my complaint and what more can be done by me by to make your local franchisee take action on my complaint.

I totally agree with the complainant's view. IFB sucks! I have suffered and I continue to suffer with bad support services. IFB ranks the highest in consumer complaints, yet it has no system in place to solve them. They are surely going down!

Dear IFB Company,
I Mr. Prashanta purchased one IFB Washing Machine from Rajpath Motors, Bapuji Nagar, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India before 3 ~ 4 years. Due to shortage of time our family didnot use the Washing Machine once from the purchase date. Last week I tried to use the Washing Machine. But the Washing Machine didnot run.
I donot know where is the Service Station of IFB Company at Bhubaneswar. So If Company will send Mechanic to my house for repair then I will be ever grateful to the Company.
Please, Please
