I have raised a compliant on 19th April, 2016 to Kent service centre about purifier not working. I got a immediate sms with a request number assigned, [protected]. I was happy with the promptness. Torture started now.Till 24april no one turned up. Finally technician came(Named Rajesh)and told you have to replace all the filters to which I have to agree and he did replace all filters. He suggested to take AMC which will cost Inr 6000 and I went ahead with that. He promised all kind of prompt service after taking amc.
After 2 days water lickage started and I called him. From that day to till date(14th April) he is fooling me n did not turned up. Finally I called Kent customer care again today and complaint about lickage. They again assigned a compliant number to me, [protected]. I told customer care to raise compliant regarding all AMC drama and how they are fooling customers by asking for huge money and not even attending a small compliant, but to my surprise she refused to take any complain and asked to to go Kent website to raise a request.

This is truly pathetic service guys from Kent. They are just harassing public and looting. How can a company like Kent have such cheap service dearlership n don't even care about customers. Utter nonsense.

This is regarding my kent autosoft water softener was overflowing and i had lodged a complaint with the request of sending some technician with sound knowledge of the same. A person came and resolved the issue but after that within 10 days the overflowing of water again started. It is pathetic to even imagine that such a reputed company like kent cannot have a full proof service providers who can actually have the proper knowledge about the company's product and on how to provide effective service.

This complaint number i lodged today morning and i requested that the person assigned for the job should have proper knowledge of the softener. But yet again a flaw in the system where the person whose number i was provided said that he does not know anything about softeners and he will not come for service. It was an emergency where the tank is overflowing and still i am helplessly waiting for a technician who can help me

I am working for a government organisation and know that what is the importance of providing proper service and feedback. I hope that some immediate action is taken and i am informed about it immediately.

It is a harassment to deal with such service providers and to regularly face such problems at home.

I had given complaint 3 days back at Dwarka Bhandup service center of Kent. When u need a part they come instantly but when there is some issue they take their own sweet time. If you can't give after sales service pls stop selling!!!
They publish mobile no's but there is no reply. I got their landline fromthe bill but girls there are just to take message and keep. Aquaguard atleast had sincere service earlier. In name of service it's just there to loot customer's and grap more money in name of parts, service contracts etc.

When they rectified That problem other problem came..and if we are complaining to customer care no one is coming .. My purifier is under warranty period . I want to change my purifier..

I sri rama chandra sarangi (Adress - gudianali, dhenkanal, orissa-759001, ph-[protected]) had purchased a kent mineral ro water purifier (Model - pearl) from kent authorized sales & service provider (S&s enterprises, in-front of george u. P. School, gudianali, dhenkanal-759001. Ph-[protected],[protected] on 25.05/2015 @ rs 16300/-, sl. No-kr[protected].

During last 11 months, there has been several problems in the system and some of the majors are mentioned as below,

1. Dt.24/09/2015-power failure-smps wire changed.
2. Dt.07/01/2016-beep sound-uv lamp replaced.
3.25/01/2016-no power-smps changed.
4.20/02/2016-water leakage-carbon filter changed.
5.25/04/2016-pump sound-pump replaced.

The product is having 1 year warranty so s. S. Enterprises has done all the above free of cost till date along with some minor problems at least for another 5-6 times which are not recorded.

I'm really fed up with the system because of the regular problem so i strongly believe it as a manufacturing defect in the system. I have requested many times to s. S. Enterprises and directly to the company i. E kent ro system ltd, a-2, sec-59, noida, u. P-201309, india to replace the system with a new system but neither the dealer nor the company is listening to my problem.

Me and my family gone through lots of problem during last 11 months for the same, therefore requesting your concern to do the needful so that i can get a new replacement system as soon as possible.

I purchased kent grand ro on 29.04.2016 from cisf canteen and registered request for installation on kent customer care. I was informed by customer care executive that my installation call will be attended by Kent representative within 12 to 48 hours and after 12 hours i got a message from Kent that my service request has been assigned to mr surendra. I called to Mr surendra for installation. He told that he will confirm after checking with office. Oneone called me in 12 hours. I again called to customer care. Customer care executive assured that technician will reach within 12 hours. After 12 hours technicIan(vickey) came from kota (very inexperienced & young) and during installation he told that one of the pump is not working and is faulty and called to kent kota office. Kota office person told me over phone that pump is faulty now we cannot do anything n called back their technician. Product was in sealed box and opened by Kent technician only. I was shocked to hear the reply of Kent service centre. Very disappointed.

Hi,
Pathetic service of Kent in Bangalore.i have lodged complaint on 29 April 2016 at 08:00 am and I got confirmation from customer care that I will get a tech visit in 24 hours but I didn't received any call till date.however I have called customer care 7-8 times and spend my time explaining my issue.

Filter change alarm is suppose to come after warranty pirod only.There is no other method to know the quality of water.

Worst & pathetic service
I purchased kent pride in the month of sep-2015. Nearly after six months i.E in the month of april-2016, one of the filters started leaking.
I raised a service request with kent service request no:[protected]. I was informed my problem will be solved within 24hrs.
Next started the drama, the service representative called me to attend the call, he informed me that he will reach within 30min to attend the problem. After knowing that the product was under warranty, he did not turn up. Then i called customer care again they assigned a service guy. As expected even this guy did not turn up. On 1-may-2016 i learnt that they have closed ticket and rated the service as poor. While no one visited ever to attend the problem.

I have purchased kent grand+ 8 - litre mineral ro+uv water purifier from amazon- id kr[protected] on 29/12/2015. Warranty still exists. The membrane cylinder inside got problem and their is a leakage in the system. I have made a call to customer care on 01/05/2016 at 11 am. After 24 hrs also the agent didn't visit my home. Again after making 2 more calls, agent visited and said, membrane cylinder needs to be replaced and went out. He said he will replace next day. Even though clearly given information, kent services are very worst. I did a big mistake in purchasing this. Please take this complaint and due to which i have to bear the cost of purchasing water from other sources, even after paying high amt for the water purifier.

Hi,
I own kent grand plus water purifier. It is not functioning and i file the complaint on 30th of may with id[protected]. It is already three days and no one has come to attend the service. I keep calling the customer care and every time i get a response that i some one will attend the request in 12hrs but no one shows up. During summer days it is really difficult. Worst service.

Hi,

Complaint no.[protected] registered on 15th april, after continuous follow-up, the complaint was addressed with replacement of filter inside the can. Amount paid - appox. Inr 3000.
Within 2 weeks the system failed and it is not functional now, complaint registered again on 29th april, complaint no.[protected]. The message received said the complaint will be addressed within 24 hours and engineer will be assigned soon. Next day the message received had the engineer assigned as mr. Babu-[protected]. We expected a call from him and waited for nearly 3 hours, thereafter when we had contacted him, he said the area is serves is not our place of residence and cannot attend the complaint, inturn he claimed will inform the office to take up the issue. After contacting the service number([protected]), one engineer had spoke and conveyed will attend the complaint before 5pm on 30th april to find out the issue but not going to resolve it, we waited and tried contacting him unfortunately no response. Now, we are spending whole weekend without proper drinking water facility. The amount and time we have spent on this is much more than the purifier cost. Suggest we replace the unit with different brand and keep peace with my needs. Hope we get proper response ensuring resolving the issue. Awaiting promptness!

We installed kent mini water softener on 27th oct 2015. Since then i have registered multiple complaints about product is not working properly. Every time we call up your distributor pearl infotech marathahalli bangalore, they will register the complaint but their service engineers do not turn up after following ups. Latest follow up started on thursday, 28th april and even after daily assurances from them, their service engineers did not show up as yet. The product since installation is not working, the salt in it is not getting dissolved and is overflowing from the machine.
We did not expect such a pathetic service from such a reputed brand.
I am fed up with constant follow ups and want kent support to get it fixed at the earliest.

I sent a complaint email to them on march 14 with no response at all.
This is utterly disgraceful. I am shocked at the product and service they are providing.
I was complaining about the poor quality of kent product that i received and also the worst service from engineers who serviced the product. We had eureka forbes's aqua guard for about 10 years without any issue but thought o[censored]sing kent recently, which seems to be a big mistake now. I brought the kent maxx (Model no- kr[protected] on[protected]. From the start we had a problem of small insects, small cockroaches, dust particles, etc getting into the water container and we had to throw the water every one or two days. There seemed to be a loop hole somewhere in the manufacturing of the product which resulted in wastage of water and time.
I used to the tell the service engineers every time they came in every 3-4months about the problem to which i got the same response saying that we will tighten the screws or fix the hole and after 1.5years o[censored]sing it with multiple service engineer visits it is still just the same.
Now we have a bigger concern which is not looked into.
Couple of weeks ago i noticed a crack in the plastic body just below the water container on the right side. I had also shown it to the recent service engineer visit on 10/03/2016 who said - it is a product fault as it cannot the take the load of the water container filled with water. Now the crack has increased even further and the lower plastic body may crack very soon. So i asked him to change the plastic body cover because the crack seems to be increasing with time to which he replied it is not in guarantee. I paid 2500rs for an amc (Ss/a/002842/) on 04/09/2016 to which i am not getting much benefit as well. Why should i pay for a manufacturing fault even concluded by service engineer?

So i would appreciate if someone could look into these matter and change the product as it never really was a good product sent to us by kent or fix the issues about it before we are bound to change and look for better product and service from a different water purifier company. I expected much better product and service from kent and received not even the minimum. I would prefer an email reply with a solution to these ongoing problems with the product. However if required, please contact me on [protected] between 8am and 1pm everyday or you contact nabanarayan bandyopadhyay on [protected] anytime.

Still awaiting your response.
