IFB Industries Complaints & Reviews

i have raised a complaint in IFB customer care 2 MONTH before about our newly purchased washing machine (Front load – 6 KG) and after a week one person from Chennai service station came to my home and take a look at the machine and he told there is a rat bite in the main wire which is getting connected to the board and we will replace. Then after 3 person came to inspect and confirmed board is the problem and will replace it. One person again came on15-Jul-14 to replace it, unfortunately he said the board is not matching with our IFB machine. Hence he took the board to his service centre and called us to inform that there is rat bite on the top of the main board and we have to pay Rs.5000 to replace the same. I asked how come rat will enter the machine, that too it bits the top of the board strip. The technician told that are two hole in the bottom of the machine and rat would have entered in that way and we will keep a filter so that the rat wont enter the machine again. This information was not told to us at the time of purchase or even by the person who came for demo. The demo person has requested to purchase water filter, stand and cover to have long life for this product. So we purchase the same from him but he did not inform us about the two holes down the washing machine. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> For the past 1 month the machine is kept open with out any cover by the service person. This is purely negligence by the demo person. and need replacement on free of cost Can any of the IFB people help me to get this resolved. I bough tthe product thinking that IFB is a good product and branded service and after this experience it is really making me to thing twice now. I have other few products at home and i have never experience this kind of service from the service station. Regards Harish [protected]

Sear Sir I have used your Front lodad washing machine and complained to your local service center in Kota Rajasthan.My booking No. 13319472 Dt. 10 July 2014. I have also your AMC customer. My AMC last date is[protected] but still that my complain not attend. Please note that after[protected] you are attend the complain and charge of maintenance I will not responsible for that.

I bought a IFB neptune dx dishwasher . Since 1 month i am facing a problem in it. I have complained against this a lot of time but i dont get any type of satisfaction. It is still not working . And i am very much frustuated . They always say tomorrow tomorrow for the replair but never done. Kindly take some action or i will file a case in consumer court.

Its 3 years since we purchased IFB Front Load Washing machine and not even a single time the service provided. Now the machine is partially functioning and makes lot of noise and sometimes stop working. Though the company quotes for 4 years warranty I am completely dissapointed with the product. thogh I got reply from [protected]@ifbglobal.com saying their service person will revert back, after logging complaint online no one bother to contact us after 2 months of the reply. I approached IFB Care near to my place. But the response we got from them was really shocking. I request you to suggest me how I can take forward this. Thanks,

iv given a complaint to ifb regarding our microwave oven. we have been facing problem with it since the date of purchase n we have taken that matter to the ifb service centre immediatly asking for replacemnt. a horrible & big ound was comin from the oven to which they have sent a technician who couldnt solve the problem and he sent another person, even that person couldnt solve the issue and he sent another person who opened the case and bent some or the other part and the sound stopped coming for few days and after somtim, the problem again started. till date that problem wasnt solved and 2 n half months ago the handle lever got broken and iv complained to ifb service centre. they responded to the complaint after a month an when that service technician came and saw the problem, he said tat the spare part was not with them, n they would get it after a week. ii waited for 2 weeks and again i gave a reminder of my complaint, to which again they responde after 3 weeks stating the same reasn. and again after a couple of weeks a service technician called & directly stated that the problem was not with the handle, & askd us to bring us to the servcice centre which izs 25km far from my place. i called up the customer care toll free number stating my problem, n iv learnt from them that the 1st complaint given by me aftre buyin the oven is still open. this is the kind of after sales service they are provindin...and evevn after mailing them my complaint twice, there was no problm. PLZ NOTE THAT IV BEEN SUFFERING WITH THE OVEN SINCE THE DATE OF PURCHASE, N NONE OF THE PEOPLE FROM IFB CUD SOLVE THE PROBLEM TIIL DATE & ABOVE THAT THEY ARE ASKING ME TO BRING THE OVEN 25KM FOR THE ISSUE OF A SMALL HANDLE ??? I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THIS ISSUE TO CONSUMER AN I FOUND YOUR LINK IN THE NET AND THOT U WUD B HELPFUL TO ME. PLZ SORT THIS PROBLEM FOR ME. THANKYOU

Hi,

My IFB customer ID is 3345281.

I bought an IFB AC about a month back. It never cools as normally ACs do. I thought it to be because of temparature soaring to 45+ degrees.

But it wasnt the case. As the temparature dropped to 40s and 30s, it got worse with time. Now it never cools during the daytime. During night, it cools to the extent that i do not feel hot. Does an AC works like that??

I registered a complaint. The person only visited once. At the second complaint, he did not came by himself but instead sent some non authorized person to look into the issue( by chance he also sent the same non authorized person to install the AC).

They say we have a voltage problem inspite of the fact that my voltage never goes below 200volts and the service person observed it by himself. what i observed is that my external unit heats up within 5mins of starting my AC. but AC never starts up.

Guess my external unit has a manufacturing defect. i want it to be changed. should i appeal to the consumer court?

i am very much disgusted with IFBs performance and their service. The customer care people never care call and follow up.

What should i do?

I am Manish Mishra from Bhopal I have purchased an IFB washing machine model-'Senorita VX 6KG 800RPM' on 12/08/2012 from lotus supermarket Bhopal.My customer id is 3511402.my machine is not working properly and I have complaint twice having complaint no[protected] &13248423.First time a guy came and he has done nothing and taken Rs340 also as service charge and not given any receipt and my machine is in warranty.And now second time i have complaint and no one came yet.I have called more than 5 times each time they say sir within 24 hours we will send any technician and now i am fed up of all this "NOW I WANT ANY STRICT ACTION FROM YOUR SIDE AND I WILL WAIT FOR 2 DAYS AND IF NOTHING HAPPENED IN 2 DAYS I WILL TAKE LEGAL ACTION AGAINST IFB BECAUSE I HAVE WAISTED A LOT OF TIME AND MONEY ON MY MACHINE"

IFB service center Sucks big time and big money. I am extremely pissed by the way complaints are dealt at nagercoil service center for IFB Dish washer. I bought my IFB dishwasher on December month and waiting to get the powder and salt to be delivered to my home for a month and used for 3 or 4 times. Now the machine is not working i have raised a complaint to the nagercoil service station and after a week one person from nagercoil service station came to my home and take a look at the machine and he told there is a rat bite in the main wire which is getting connected to the board and we will replace that and we will keep a filter so that the rat wont enter the machine again. He told us inorder to get it changed you need to bring the machine to our office. And we bring the machine to the service station and one week there is no response from them and when we called them they told us there is some issue in some of the parts which we have ordered in Madurai which will take some time and we waited few more days and few days later the agent called us and told us we need to pay around 6000 rs in order to take back our machine. When i checked with him why we have to pay 6000 rs give me the breakdown for that. He told me that rat bite is there even inside the machine also and we have replaced those parts also which we ordered from Madurai. I asked him to send me the pictures of the parts which has rat bite and the bill copy for the spare parts which he has ordered.I waited for two days and i didnt receive any documents, Hence i told him i cannot pay any amount. First thing is if he is changing any other parts he should have consulted with me first and second thing is how can he get spare parts from outside when he is a authorized service center for IFB. IFB should provide the spare parts which need to be replaced. He tried to cheat me using his best tactics and at last he told me he cannot give the machine unless we pay 2000 rs. I agreed to pay that and he told me he will send back the machine as it is already repaired and he took 5 days to send back the machine to my house. When he delivered the machine i asked him to check whether it is working or not. The machine is not working and asked him then what you have checked when you say it is repaired do you check whether the machine is working or not and he asked me to pay the transport charge to bring to my home. I know these people they didnt do any thing and they just bring back the machine. After all these happened i asked him when are you going to repair it he said the service person has went on some trip he will be back after few days then i will ask him to come for repair. I really dont understand if there is no person for doing service how they IFB give dealership to them second thing i dont understand it how can they get spare parts outside for repairing IFB product How can they collect this king of money from the customer when the machine is in warranty I know these people are trying to cheat the customer and get money and not doing any service . Can any of the IFB people help me to get this resolved. I bought the product thinking that IFB is a good product and branded service and after this experience it is really making me to thing twice now. I have other few products at home and i have never experience this kind of service from the service station. You can contact me in this email [protected]@rediffmail.com Customer is from Irenipuram. I will take it up to any level if it is not resolved and i will not be paying any money fro my pocket.

My customer ID is 549116.
My name is SUBHADRA SEN, and my address is 4RB-4/1 Purbachal, Salt Lake, KOLKATA 700097.
My telephone number is[protected].
The complaint is regarding my Washing machine (Senorita+)
I am on a TWO-YEAR Annual Maintenance contract.
I had registered two complaints, one on[protected]COMPLAINT No.[protected] the other on[protected]Complaint No.13280056
On[protected] the machine was visited by Rajib Jana who said the valve was to be changed. But since then your company has not sent anybody to fix it and the machine has been out o[censored]se for the last six days.
I and my husband are both very old people and we are feeling helpless with such negligence from your company. In fact your people say they can come only after 6 p.m, in spite of our request to come at 4 p.m. or earlier.
Mr. Dilip Jana said that "the office is too far from Salt Lake and they cannot come before 6 p.m. which is a very inconvenient time for us
I feel that your people are undermining the reputation of your company as being one of the best.
Requesting some remedial action, I remain,
Yours faithfully,
Subhadra Sen

Model: Senorita Aqua Sx-6kg / FRONT Door inner side screw joint break.
Its purchased just 15 days before. This is our second IFB machine and have the experience to handle past10yrs. Same has registered on 05th June and attend local service staff Mr. Boominathan, Tiruppur. After dismantling he ask Rs 1643 for the new door. I said its purchasing just 15 days before I cannot pay one rupee for this, He immediately went out of my home without saying anything. Then I call his manager and Coimbatore representative MR. Nanda Gopal on 7th June he said the cost will be 1043 if you pay I will fix immediately otherwise it will take minimum four days to get approval. They try to get extra money directly from customers. Finally, I registered call complaint and web complaint on 7th June. Still no response from that side.

I have purchased IFB Washing Machine 8 Kgs Front load SENATOR AQUA SX MODEL Bill No 116 dt[protected], s no 009989 Cost of Rs.35, 000/- at SRI LXMI VENATESWHWARA AGENCIES #7-27-12/3 Near Axis Bank, OPP First step Union Bank Road, T.Nagar, Rajahmundry AP Phone [protected] on[protected] I want to purchase Stand for washing machine the service centre man bring 6 Kgs stand instead of 8 kgs stand he was told the stand cost of Rs.1430/- in the month of April 2014 my sister had purchased the same stand for Rs.1300/- only . I have asked that person the price is increased in the month of June 2014 . Even though iam asking to bring the stand but he says that he won't bring still now. He also says that we can use the washing machine with out the stand. He didnot respond to the call when we call mobile No.[protected] Ganesh, and Incharge mobile No. Surya : [protected]. They are also suggested to purchase machine external Aqua Filters and Stebilizer for safety of the washing machine. I think that, they are more interested to sale the external parts for more commission. But they didnot sale original things of IFB company. So I request you to arrange IFB washing machine front load 8 KGs IFB Stand.
