Hi team,

We have purchased the ifb front loading washing machine on 30th sep 2019 from reliance digital. And machine was delivered at home after 3 days. Then after 2 days machine was installed. Then next 10 days we are in follow up with ifb team for complete demo of machine.

After that we are facing pr5 error with machine from 1 month even more than 1 month. 2-3 times case was logged with ifb. 8-10 different...

Hi team,

I am writing this to express my worst experience with ifb washing machine customer service. I had an ifb front loaded washing machine which still fall under warranty (Amc covered). We had a few issue in machine for which we raised a complin about an year ago. Every time we call to get the status "give us 24 hrs technician will reach you" which never happens. So following are the thing which i have to understand

1. Is it only intimating the service center is the job of customer service (Or to follow up with them to make sure the sisssue is resolved)

2. Service center claims that parts were not ready yet. (Is that a so complex part which requires about an year to manufacture)

3. Treating the customers as like we are begging for help (Literally got to hear from customer service that " we will do once we get the part that's it and disconnect the call when customer is speaking). We are claiming for what we pay.

4. Are the local services stations are under monitoring of ifb?

Looking for really for atleast this mail.

My washing machine was purchased in 2008, it was working perfectly without any techincal help or servicing until 2018.in 2018 techinican visited for service & henceforth i took up amc, replaced some pipes, timer, etc. Now currently having taken 2 yrs comprehensive amc which will expire in 2021.
Few days back, i registered an issue with ifb customer care for water leaking while machine is in operation. At first a technician from grs solutions, pai layout, bangalore visited, he changed the suspension which was covered under amc, he told to replace 2 rubber fittings which costed rs.750 (Not covered under amc). After reassembling machine, found that water leaking problem is not solved! He opened machine again and found inside outlet pipe is leaking.
Later he brought a replacement pipe from office, but it was not of correct size. So he put thread & tape & fixed the existing leaking pipe. When he assembled back the machine, we found that the start button has been damaged by him. The on/ off function had stopped functioning, & light always glowing. This button was working perfectly before he came to check the appliance! When we asked him to look into it, he never bothered & left & marked the ticket as resolved!
I raised the issue once again with customer care. A new technician visited & he pulled the machine out with lot of force, which caused the pipe connected to water supply at the back to dismantle & all water gushing out.
He replaced the faulty outlet pipe with a new pipe, but never informed me that it is chargeable, i. E not covered under amc. Next he tried to fix back the pipe that had opened at back & he was unable to fix it. He removed the filter (Aqua softener or so they call it), & informed that both pipe & filter needs to be changed as its threading is all gone!
This issue was never there previously, he had pulled out the machine so roughly and caused this damage! And now we have to pay for his errors! We had already replaced this filter back in jan-2019. Not even 10 months over & now he is making us to purchase new filter again for rs. 1850 just because he spoilt it and he is not able to fix it back. We would have easily managed with the existing filter another 5 years if not for his mishandling!!!
When i i telephoned the grs solutions service manager, he guaranteed that filter functions for 2 yrs & definitely 1 yr+. He assured me that the unnecessary filter sale amount will be refunded back. However, when technician visited, he suggested to keep the new replaced filter, so in effect no refund of my rs. 1850.

We are very very disappointed with this type of service & causing a hole in customer pocket with technician mishandling, lack of knowledge & sheer lack of experience.

What upsets me the most is that from when i bought the appliance in 2008 until 2018, machine worked perfectly without any issues. Even the filter worked 10 yrs for me without causing any issue. now they made me to change filter 2 times in span of 10 months!!!

Ever since grs solutions came to our service, we have ended up spending almost same amount as cost of appliance which we had paid rs. 20, 000 (From 2018 to 2019- last 2 years time - grs solutions charged us towards servicing, replacing parts, amc, etc amounting to rs. 18, 000).

Kind attention to other customers: if you happen to read this complaint, pls dont take up their amc, its total waste of money and cheating customers.
When they visit for service, they will damage perfectly working parts, ask us and infact convince us to change parts which are not covered under amc. Total total waste of money!

I am writing here to complain about the horrible experience we had with ifb bangalore. We took a demo of dishwasher and happy with the product, we decided to buy it. However, when we started using the product we found it did not operate as demo one. The wash quality was poor and it spillls the detergent over to the utensils. Also, the entire machine is dirty after every wash.

So, we complained ifb after 2 days and they assured someone will visit. The engineer visited and confirmed the product is faulty and he raised a request for replacement.

However, we heard nothing from ifb for next couple of weeks. After several follow ups, they said we would like to see the machine again. The engineer who visited this time mentioned the product is fine and this is how it works. He mentioned we cannot put big utensils or plates in front. I told him it wasn't the case in demo product as we've used it in a similar way for 3 days but he wasn't ready to listen anything.

I suggested him to try the machine the way he wants. He started a 50 minute wash cycle and left. He wasn't kind enough to wait for the entire cycle to complete. I even sent him pictures that the problem is still there but he did not respond to any of my messages.

Now they have stopped taking our calls. It's been more than a month now i'm struggling with this piece of crap.

The ifb filed engineers are not skilled enough to troubleshoot the dishwashers.

Please do not buy dishwashers from ifb. The product is poor and the service is worse.

Hi i have purchased 9/7in 2013 and faced main circuit board problem several times. But now there is no spare parts available and no support as promised by ifb is breached. It's just 6years completed hence i will be registering consumer court in couple of days.

Zonal person proposed 30% off to buy wm and dryer which will cost again 50k but if we get parts it will be around 8i

Please guide me or ifb can take it as seriously

I have ifb complaint no generated a month back

I am using elena aqua 6kg washing machine from the last 5 yrs.. It's knob needs to be replaced under an amc taken around 3 months back... 2 times the executives had visited with a wrong sized knob after so many calls. They keep on giving excuses all the time... What is an amc if customer has to be charged for any product internal or external... I am disappointed with the reluctant behaviour of ifb team... Very bad customer service i strongly recommend everyone not to buy ifb products...

Our ifb washing machine stopped working within the warranty period. The complaint we raised with ticket no:[protected]. They took almost more than month to fix this saying part is not available. We had to call them daily. Even they gave us service center manager numbers, they were also careless. Later one guy named shankar he came in and fixed it partially and told us to close ticket. He told he will come back once part is available. Since we closed this ticket he did not bother to come back and repair. Also i wrote mail to ifb support, i did not get any response from them. This is very poor service from ifb. I will never ever buy or suggest to any body to buy # ifp products. You can check ticket logs how may times we have to call you just ti know the status. We are not beggers ifb.

Sir; i mr. Dharma rajan vk purchased a 30 l convection rotassary microwave oven and it was delivered exactly one month now... On 25 oct 2019. On 27 ifb service technician assisted to install and check.. But while opening we found two items were missing.

2. Handle, item ser 12 of parts list
Made so many comlaints / feedback verbally and by mail also, but no one responded back. But last week i got a office replying to me from amazone. Asked me to approach ifb customer care.
3. I could manage a customer request number : [protected].
On approach next day for service assistance... The technician say ifb is not responsible. You approach amazone.
4. Then i approach mr malvin m regional manager for customer care support and he told he will look in to but since last 7 days again no action.
5. Now what i should do... Wait for the missing items?? Or go to a consumer court??

Regards

I myself have come across couple of incidents where the technician is very keen to make the customer opt for AMC rather than finding the best solution. the customer never knows the cost of spare parts. In my case the the technician asked me to replace the drain pump and it costs around 3000 rs. I have inquired the customer care representative to find the actual cost. But he himself doesn't know the price of it. eventually we need to believe what the technician said. He said AMC for an year costs around 3k. So having no choice we opted for AMC. But when i see amazon and other websites its coming around 1200 to 1500. God knows. More over to just find the technical fault the technician charging around 590 rs. Hats-off to IFB. Customers will never buy your products again.

Display board not working. Technicians from customer care came and told display board is not available in market.themodel no of the refrigitor is RFfT 485-EDWDLS/PW.
Please arrange the same asap.fridge is not cooling.food is getting rotten.we are feeling helpless.please help as early as possible.

I am registering complaint to the ifb customer care, amravati since 21st november, 2019. The customer care personnel attended the call two times since then telling that technician would visit my house to attend the complaint.

Hello,

I have experienced the worst service from your company. I have called you thrice on your toll free number for the past 1 months and no technician has contacted me.
My ticket numbers are as follows
1. [protected]
2. [protected]

The customer service provider gives us false information and are not qualified personnel.

I hope to hear from you soon.

IFBservice assigned Ticket No..[protected] on 22November 19 at 10:21AM and till now absolutely no response for my six calls. One of the worst experience with so called IFB. Never expected. Could you take steps to solve...?

It is almost 6 days now and my machine has not been set right as yet.
I reside in noida and the technician came on day 1 and said parts will have to be got from the company. He came the next day with the part for the wrong model and promised to get the right part and repair the machine by the evening. It is now five days and he has not yet turned up. Even calls to the customer care centre of the company are of no use.

I am from hyderabad. I have ordered washing machine from amazon. I got defective washing machine from amazon which was identified by ifb professional. Machine has small dent in the side and leakage while using. But, they are denied to give job sheet to submit to amazon. If i check with amazon they are saying that they need denial letter from ifb. Local service center
What can i do now.. How can i replace my machine

I am not receiving proper service support from ifb. Firstly, they call often and ask for appointment to do general service. But they never show up. This has been the trend everyone. Now, i have a serious problem with machine and even after raising a complaint, i have not received a concrete response. I am being told it will be resolved within 24 hours, but it is over 24 hours now. When i followed up with support center, now they are saying it will take 48 hours, because they raised or logged my complaint only a day after. I am being told the same story that technician will call before visit. Should i keep my eyes on the path and wait was technician to call without doing any other stuff? What if am not available when technician calls... This is ridiculous service support given by ifb

I have a huge problem in microwave my pcb is got damaged and serviceman visited but not visited again for repairing the product and fix the pcb. Much days spent and they are doing nothing. I called more than 7 numbers of company employees. I called the incharge of rajasthan state and district state and others. They are all fooling. What i have to do please fix my problem. Half month spent but they are doing nothing.

Dear team,

I brought one ifb front loading 7kg washing machine but after 6 month only its mother board is completely burnt, machine is in warranty period but still company is not giving replacement. I am continuously taking follow up but still there is no response from the company. I am planning to go to consumer court soon if will not any response from the company. I recommend everybody please do buy such pathetic product from such fraudsters company.
