Sir,
I am reposting my review in public interest because it was removed by Flipkart for obvious reasons. Perhaps they are much too interested in making money than see to the welfare of customers. The below imputations are statements of fact that are verifiable and I am reaching Lenovo and Flipkart simultaneously for their action. This communication is admissible as evidence under the Indian Evidence Act, 1872 and the Information Technology Act, 2000. No physical or digital signatures are required to be appended.
BUYER BEWARE. Lenovo A6000 Plus is a lousy phone according to my experience with it. I bought the Lenovo A6000 Plus for Rs 7589/- vide Order no. OD[protected] on 19th May 2015. Invoice copy attached. It reached my hands on 20th June 2015. A cheap phone, after all, is indeed cheap. It turns out costly in the short run as I am now experiencing.One month o[censored]se and I am fed up.
Since last 10 days, the phone is behaving erratic. The dual SIM notification was showing Vodafone 3G Null instead of Vodafone 3G Reliance 2G. I have seen the battery drain faster while taking longer time to recharge fully.After the screen sleeps, the power button failed many a times to wake up the phone.
From yesterday the touch screen has gone crazy. Weird posts and nonsense get posted on Whatsapp. Messaging misbehaves with gibberish messages getting typed. The phone behaves as if it is possessed by a ghost. Apps flip on from one screen shot to another. I cannot make calls because calls get connected to people I do not wish to call. The digits 4, 5 and 6 on the dialer screen do not operate. I am at my wits end. My time is being wasted and I cannot be productive.
Now progress to the second stage. I tried three Lenovo Service Centres. They are as given below. See the response I got from them. All interesting:
Lenovo Service Centre – Andheri (E), Mumbai
Name : SVN System Technologies
Address : 217 – 220, B – Wing, Bonanza Sahar Plaza Complex, Andheri – Kurla Road, J.B. Nagar, Andheri (E).
City : Mumbai
Area Name : Andheri (E).
Phone Number : 28245899/2825900/67100176
[I was told this service centre closed down for Lenovo service TWO YEARS ago. I will have to go looking elsewhere]
Lenovo Service Centre – Andheri (E), Mumbai
Name : Orient Technologies Pvt Ltd
Address : 49H, New Havens, 2nd Floor, Parsi Panchayat Road, Andheri (E).
City : Mumbai
Area Name : Andheri (E).
Phone Number :[protected]
[This centre's telephone is dead. As good as the phone I bought. Please try it yourself]
Lenovo Service Centre – Andheri (E), Mumbai
Name : Pentagon System Services Pvt Ltd
Address : 501, Pamukh Plaza, Cardinal Gracious Marg Chakala, Andheri (E).
City : Mumbai
Area Name : Andheri (E).
Phone Number :[protected]/67417512
[I was nicely informed that this service centre does not service Lenovo phones. Why the hell is it called a Lenovo Service Centre? I cannot understand]
This is what happens in this country that is steeped in corruption and time-pass. Customers have to run from pillar to post and waste their time, money and energies because they patronise a charlatan enterprise with charlatan service centres that do disservice.
If I am denied resolution of my grievance within reasonable time by either replacing the defective phone with a brand-new working piece or refunding my money in full, I will be left with the only option to drag Lenovo, making Flipkart a party to Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum bringing charges of deficiency of service and o[censored]nfair trade practice.
Kindly do not make me send legal notices to your registered offices.
Faithfully,
VENKATESH NAIDU
Dear Flipkart,
I have already travelled up to the Lenovo service centre at Andheri HCL Centre at Marol on 25th June 2015 at 1750 hrs, wasted my money and time and deposited the diseased phone. It will require hospitalisation for 10 days (excluding holidays) in the ICU. Until then it will be under coma.
I will have to fend for mysel[censored]ntil then for TEN DAYS. No guarantee the phone will not require ICU services again!!! So much for purchasing a cheap phone which is now proving very costly.
Thank you very much,
VENKATESH NAIDU
