I purchased a Lenovo thinkpad e460 (serial no.- PF0I1C4L)on 6.08.16, from the onset I have been facing problems with wifi connectivity, excess RAM usage (while doing basic operations), problems about the slowness of the machine and so on and registered my complain with lenovo support within 7 days ( 3rd or 4th day of purchase). Initially there was a bit hiccup about the registration of the product also (warranty was supposed to be for 3 years, instead it showed for one year), but that was resolved. So after contact, I was assured that the problem was software related not a hardware related, so upgrading windows 10 and the drivers will resolve the issue. But after several session of remote control, none of the problems were resolved. During this time none of the team spoke about the lenovo India return policy that, it can be done within 7 days of purchase only. During this time I asked for a full refund but I was assured that the issue is a driver related one. So after several sessions when the problems were not resolved and I asked for a full refund (to commercialts) on day14. I was told by my the lenovo authorized dealer, ALCO INFOTECH that I can ask for a refund within 30 days and there is no clear return policy mentioned anywhere by lenovo India. I asked over the phone for refund within this 7 days but not through mail, but I was assured the problem was software related not hardware related one. But they suppressed any information about the return policy. After long persistence they changed the wifi card (albeit not an intel one, which was originally what I paid for) and they even tried to change the motherboard and display. So what remains? Still they did not give me refund. Today to my dismay I am finding that keys are falling off. My laptop is slow considering it has 6th generation i7 processor. Now the bluetooth is also not working. I am seeking full refund or full replacement of my laptop as I feel have been cheated and lenovo from outset knew that it was a faulty product, did not mention the return policy after initial contact. I am attaching the documents u can go through.

Updated by Amrit88 I repeatedly have been complaining to lenovo about the slowness of the machine. In the advertisement it was written 1600Mhz DDR3L RAM, but the RAM is two 4GB of 800MHz. That means it is technically a 1600Mhz RAM but due to the slow bandwidth the machine works slower. The machine was destined to work slow and lenovo has not been able to change that in any way. So they compromised performance on the basis of technicality and that is very disturbing, that is conning the consumers.
