[Resolved]  IFB Industries — complaint about the service by the company

Address:

Jaipur, Rajasthan, 302001

I have fully automatic ifb washing machine model senorita dx 5.5 kg. On 05.02.19 i made a complaint on your toll-free number[protected] for getting my machine repaired. The complaint number given to me was j 1062 and it was assured that i shall be receiving call from service centre jaipur within two hours. I got the call from[protected] stating to be from ifb and mechanic assured to visit me next day i. E. 06.02.19. On 06.02.19 the mechanic mr. Arjun motwani visited my house and after inspecting the machine he informed that its pcb and bearings are to be changed and for which the machine shall be taken to the service station. He took the machine to service centre on 06.02.19 and brought back on 07.02.19 stating that machine is now ok and required parts i. E. Pcb and bearings have been changed. The mechanic took rs. 6700.00 and issued the invoice for the same. The invoice was issued on bill book of m/s electro vision, agarwal farm, mansarovar, jaipur. When questioned the mechanic that why it is not on the bill book of ifb he informed that they are the authorised service centre of ifb.

After the service and replacement of the parts the machine did not wok properly. I called the mechanic again who visited me on 08.02.19 and told that the machine has to be taken to service station again tomorrow i. E. 09.02.19. It is 12.02.19 today the mechanic did not visit me, and his number is also not being replied.

My complaint with ifb are as under which need to be redressed immediately:

1. I booked the complaint with ifb for machine to be repaired by the company. Why the company did not depute its own mechanic and deputed m/s elector vision of jaipur?
2. Is company not responsible for after sale service?
3. Is company responsible for warranty and guarantee for the parts which has been replaced by m/s electro vision?
4. The invoice issued by m/s electro vision does not have any gst number which makes me believe that genuine parts are not used.
5. I was told by the mechanic that the machine shall be repaired by ifb?

This all mess has been created by ifb. I called many times the toll-free number, but they could not reply me satisfactorily and disconnected the phone. The customer who wants the genuine parts of company are being diverted to patronised local vendors by the company for poor service and duplicate parts which has adversely affected the reputation of the company.

Sir, i request you to redress my complaint immediately to avoid any legal process in the matter and to avoid adverse comments on social media.

Thanking you,
