IFB Industries Complaints & Reviews

Hi team,

We took ifb washing machine around 4 years back and recently we faced problem that door lock error is showing and it's not working. So, we called ifb customer service center and service person came and told that there are 2 problems with the machine one is door lock and the board got damaged due to high voltage. They took rs.600 as servicing fee and they asked us to pay rs 6000 for the board but we asked if the board is damaged how the supply is coming and all the lights were on, they answered us we told the problem it won't worked if you won't fixed the board. Meanwhile they have done general servicing cleaning the door knob and they have closed the door and we told them we will call you on monday as they came on saturday. On the next morning we again tried the machine on and it worked perfectly. After few washes again there is a door error now we called one of our dad's friend to check the issue as he is an washing machine mechanic and told that the problem is only the door sensor is not working and he replace that and it worked and still there is no problem. Ifb people are using the brand name and we think that if we show only to service center they will fix them properly but they are cheating the people

My name is Chandrashekar from Hyderabad, India, Telangana. Even though we have 2 years of AMC for our IFB Washing Machine till 3rd week of March, 2020, both my wife/ I have been receiving a lot of calls from the service centre, Hyderabad asking us to renew the AMC from Jan. 2020 onwards itself.

Even though we have called the Customer Care number several times in Jan./ Feb. for the technician to be sent for getting the service done, instead, they have been calling us to pay the amount to renew the AMC.

Finally, when I called the customer care in the 2nd week of Feb. and raised a complaint against this kind of treatment towards us, the technician by name Mr. Taufiq was sent to our residence on 25th Feb. 2020 and he hardly spent 5 minutes to check/ do the service and said that the candles have to be changed and told us that within 2 days he would come back and replace the candles.

After almost 10 days he called me on 4-Mar-2020 (today) around 2 PM and the first thing he asked was if we were going to pay the amount to renew the AMC and when I insisted that he better come and replace the candles first and later we would pay the amount, he immediately called my wife (HARASSMENT and A THREAT TO A FEMALE) and gave her a threat stating that he would come to our residence only if we were going to pay the amount or else he would not be able to replace the candles either.

When I called him again after almost 4 hours as he didn't turn up, he was not only rude but also told me that I can raise a complaint with anyone including the Police, Senior Management or anyone and said that NO ACTION CAN BE INITIATED AGAINST HIM FOR HIS ATTITUDE TOWARDS MY WIFE AND TOLD ME THAT HE CANNOT COME AND REPLACE THE CANDLES AND PUT DOWN THE PHONE.

I feel that THE IFB SERVICE CENTER in Hyderabad is only looking for money and doesn't want to provide any kind of service, like alone proper service to the customers.

I have mentioned/ raised this complaint by calling the customer care number but instead of taking this seriously I guess they also encourage the service centre personnel to harass customers (FEMALE CUSTOMERS) like my wife asking to pay the AMC and not provide proper service. I am really fed up with this kind of service/ attitude and company who WANT TO ONLY EARN MONEY AND NOT PROVIDE PROPER SERVICE.

I have purchased an ifb washing machine in 2018 which is under warranty now. Few days back the machine stopped working. Service technician visited after 3 days that too after many follow-up calls. He came and told that a process state pipe is faulty and needs to be replaced. But he told us that because we are using a trolley which we have purchased from local market we will have to pay for the part although the machine is under warranty. The warranty document is not present anywhere with the documentation provided to us. I have raised concern to their zonal manager also but everybody talks the same language that you have to pay the charges. What is the meaning of warranty then? If it is mentioned anywhere in written in the warranty document then i am ready to pay the charges. Kindly share the warranty terms.

The washing machine did not work and i complained. Service person called and took the address and assured to come on sunday. He didn't come. On monday, we waited nad again called. He said there will be immediate response from other person. But ni one responded. After 1 hour, we called again. He said, there will be immediate response. What is this. Is the way service is getting done. What is the action going to be taken

My self sravan kumar and my mobile number is [protected]. Iam facing same issue from last six months and i complaining this issue from last 4months till the date no one resolve my issue so many technicians coming and going. But issue is still continue, if this issue is not cleared i will go legally, within the warranty only ifb not resolved the issue. Same thing i will complained for customer care so many times, i wasted my working days for waiting every complaint

My ifb washing machine wasn't running, kept flashing door on the display.. I raised a complaint with ifb customer care... They sent a person same day... A drunk man, who came unfitted things so hastily and cared nothing to tell me about what he was doing... And then he said the door lock was missing and it would cost 950... He took something from his bag and fitted it... I have no ways of even accessing the door lock which is inside the rubber beading inside the drum... Then the machine was working fine.. But he said pcb is gone and i have to take amc else it will cost much... He sold the amc right away and took money for everything and left saying he willl come when he gets the pcb.. I have been cheated by these ifb people, for unnecessarily they are asking me to change something which is working fine.. Ifb is fine sending drunk technicians to houses.. This is appalling... They want to sell their amc and will go to any extent. To do it...

Your company recently installed my washing machine at my home in kanpur dehat. I would like to inform you that we have complained more than three times, i will mention the ticket no.

I know that this company is very reputed but now i am feeling no one is coming to resolve the problem i hope that you will take action in favor of me.

And one thing is i didn't receive the bill of washing machine standstill while we got the reply from your employee that we will receive the bill of stand on whatsapp.

Ticket no. [protected]

I had purchased ifb
20sc2 20l convection microwave oven (Silver) from the tata store in august 2019 and still the product is in warranty.
The convection of the appliance is not working as expected and not able to cook a cake. I have read all the online references many times but not able to cook cake/pizza satisfactory in the last 5 months.
This is not the first time, i am using a microwave or oven. I have used a lot of other products in the last 6-7 years. I had explained this all to customer care in details and they listen to me around 40-45 minutes. Also, a technician came to my home but nothing helped. I thought they understood, but today i realized they have closed the ticket with status as "resolved". Can you please help or help me to escalate the concern.

Dear IFB Team,
I purchased an IFB machine Top load 8 kg on 17 July 2018.
I am facing lots of problems in that machine and called your customer support so many times. They visited but unable to resolve properly.
I have also lot of complaint ticket.
Below are some tickets number:-

They have already told for replacement and also replacement ID has generated [protected] but now they refused for replacement
Now, I am totally frustrated 😣😣😣. IFB team is very bad.
My registered mobile is [protected] and [protected].

The fan keeps moving despite the time completion of the meal heated. Have complained before for this very reason and another but this issue hasn’t resolved at all. This seems to be my only concern, how else am I supposed to expand on it. The fan continues moving and has been so like this in the recent past, kindly look into it as soon as possible.

I am Using ifb microwave oven. The touch screen was not working from last year. I made a complaint many times. It seems they have wrongly updated the model in their records. Each time the technician is coming with other model spare parts.

Again next time i am calling the customer care and asking to update the correct model, they are saying ok, but they never updated.

Yesterday also i made a complaint and they said we will update but the technician came with another model spares.

Then immediately i called the customer care and i asked the explanation. They said today morning around 10 am they will make a call back to me about the issue. But still now i haven’t got any call.

This is one of worse customer care and service by IFB.

MY IFB customer id is 15754447

Your service executive mr ajay from ahmedabad took money and did not turned up for faulty circuit. Hope you will take necessary action. He is just denying my calls.
Also i have registered my complaint number [protected] which is not yet attended even after 5 days.
I really surprised that such a big company giving poor services to their customers.
I will never recommend or buy ifb products in future.
Please provide contact number of higher authorities to take up this matter.

Name: lenin ; id 3783010
Washing machine model: ifb elena aqua
Out of warranty
This morning the machine stopped working in the middle of cycle with clothes inside. Door locked, can"t open door to take out clothes. Ifb website says customercare numbers open 24*7. I tried calling [protected] and[protected] for an hour from 9:50 am but couldn't reach either number. Finally at 11:40 am, i could talk to somebody at[protected]. I explained to her that clothes are inside machine and need technician to come at the earliest. We are very much disappointed by ifb's poor service. Now it is 1:26 pm.
So far no technician has called.
1) customercare numbers don't work 24/7 as claimed by ifb website.
2) customers' problem is not understood by the company/staff.
3) they try to promote their products/business at customers' cost. When i call them with a complaint, they go on about their products and offers, of course after listening to my complaint.

I had purchased a ifb dishwasher on 15/8/17 from vijay sales, sadhu vaswani road, pune..

In november 2019, the machine started malfunctioning showing an f3 error. I lodged a complaint and a technician was sent and it was diagnosed to be a problem with the drain pump which was replaced at a cost of rs. 2, 250 and we paid rs. 590 as service charge.

After this service, there was little water leakage and the machine stopped sometimes giving an f5 error or stopped with f2 error or stopped just before before drainage and steaming. The technician visited again another 2 times saying that he saw no problem and but would consult his seniors about the error messages.

The machine continued working on and off till the first week of feb 2020, the machine did not work at all giving an f10 error and on pressing the reset button, there was big water leakage.

The technician visited after my complaint, saying that the circulating pump needed to be replaced costing rs. 6500. I am unwilling to pay for parts for the following reason...

1) your technicians are not adequately trained and may have further damaged the machine since nov 2019 due to incorrect fault finding and service.

2) for a machine costing rs. 30, 000 i will have to pay 1/3 of of its cost on repairs over a 2 year period, in addition to having to deal with a malfunctioning machine.

We had a dish washer of another make at the same location, quality of water etc and we never faced any such problem over a period of 12 years.

Hello

I have bought a Washing machine 11 months ago approx. The machine has given a lot of problems recently and I have been lodging complaints in the company recently.

Last month there was a problem (because of the machine the whole house is getting tripped the executive who came told it was because of the heater and solved the issue after delaying for 2-4 days)

Ticket no: tkt[protected]
Date : 11 Jan 2019

Today we had the same issue again for which we have given a call to the customer support who have given a managers name as my wife wanted to ask for a replacement of the device, the manager said the replacement could not be done and has not stated the reason why it could not be done. He was not in a position to listen to my wife complaining about the machine (of what the problem was). he was like the replacement cannot be done and the service person is coming. (he wasnt ready to listen to the customer side problems)
Manager Name: Sabrish (what was told to us) (Vignesh according to truecaller)
Manager Number: [protected]

Then after this when i gave him a call and asked him he says the replacement cant be done and as i was asking questions he started shouting when i asked him why he was shouting he said im not shouting and changed his tone again (I do have a recorded copy).

By the end of the call for asking him when he can provide me with a service guy he says he will be coming by 4 PM today. where as no one has come for the repair. (what is the point of booking an appointment if they are not gonna show up i mean all o[censored]s do have work we cant just wait all day for them)

In the starting when we gave them a call they used to say we are near by and stuff now they are completely ignoring the calls.(why give us a particular time when you cant make it though)

Service person Name : Girish
Number : [protected]

Please do the needful for this.

Thanks
Mahateja

There was an issue regarding the start/pause button as the sensor was not working. The issue has been communicated to the perumbavoor ifb service center, they were giving a poor response and was not willing to come and rectify the problem. After checking they removed the board and is neither repairing not giving a new board. Their attitude is really horrible and irresponsible. Even after 4 days of constant complaint they are not showing any interest in resolving the issue. This kind of response literally makes you stop using ifb products.

Ifb washing machine 6kgs taking too much time to wash even i select minimum time. I try to call my district service center number. But they not pick. i need good service man from your end.

Problems:
*Taking too much time to wash
*Inlet not intake a comfort liquid

In spite of multiple calls and reaching our to branch head mr. Gopi, yet no revert over my problem. Ifb has again proved to be the worst after sale service provider. Their main motive is just to sell the products, let the user suffer later but who cares our work is done!!
My machine is still under warranty and i want either the solution or a replacement.. I am not gonna sit quietly and sulk everytime. They are testing my nerves now😡

Do not go with ifb ever..
