Dear team
Greetings!
Today, i am writing this email to share my disappointment with your product and your team as well. I am not sure, if i am writing this email to the right person as this the only email id provided by lg agency @ sre to me however, i have just decided to do so before taking it the court for the consumer right.
I am sure by know, i am well known between your team members because i have been following up and continuously complaining about my refrigerator which i bought in oct 2015 and not performing well since i bought. Its like, i have punished myself by buying lg refrigerator and blocked my money.
Before i start explaining myself and my complaint for the last time to lg team, please find below the information for your information:
Consumer's name:- mr. R. P. Bharti
Consumer's location:- saharanpur (Up)
Consumer's mobile:- +[protected]
Lg product:- lg double door refrigerator
Product number:- gl - m322rpzl
Amount paid:- rs. 31, 500/-
Date of purchase:- 23 october 2015
Place of purchase:- lg shoppe, a. P. S. Mall, opp. Andhra bank, link road, saharanpur u. P.
Summary:-
Right after 6 months we bought this refrigerator, we faced challenges with the cooling process of the machine and it was not cooling as it suppose to be. Complaint has been registered to the shopper keeper (From where we bought the product) however, we have been advised to contact lg customer care service which we did and registered our complaint.
Lg service team came home and fixed the issue (Refill the cooling gas) and issue has been resolved.
Again, same problem has occurred before completing 1 year from the date of purchase, lg customer care team / agency @sre has been informed :- team came and checked the product and same problem has been notified that refrigerator has some internal / technical problem due to which refrigerator is not cooling and stopped working.
Consumer requested the team for a replacement as problem has occurred twice in one year (Under warranty) and warranty was about to expire soon in few days/month.
Lg team confirmed to consumer about the refrigerator that it will be fixed this time completely and you will not face any problem in future and if you do face again, immediate action will be taken and refrigerator will be replaced with a new one with no cost.
Consumer trusted the lg team and allowed them to fix once again and refrigerator has been fixed for the second time now and it started working as normal.
After 6 months, same issue has occurred once again and lg customer care team & service centre @sre has been contacted. Lg team came and checked the refrigerator and has stated that, as the product is out of waranty now, consumer have to bear the cost of any service / fault and any damage with refrigerator.
At first it was very disappointed to see that lg team is asking consumer to pay the amount where it was confirmed by them last time that in future consumer will not face any challenges with the refrigerator and if refrigerator will not perform. It will be replaced.
At last, no support was provided by lg service team and consumer paid to fix for the refrigerator.
Once again, right after 6 months, same problem has been occurred again (4th time 20 months by now) and we have been trying to get it fixed but no one assisted us. Lg service centre team @ sre has been aware about the full scenario since we bought the product however, as per them they are helpless and their superior are not supporting and not in favor of replacing the product.
It has been confirmed by lg technicians that, the refrigerator has some technical fault from the production as it cant be repaired and fixed. After all of that the refrigerator is not replaced or fixed.
I consumer - r. P. Bharti... A retired government officer has tried my best, to contact lg team/superiors/ manager/customer care... No one ever responded to my queries and when ever i called customer care.. My calls has been hanged up or not attended in a professional manner.
I have tried several sources to reach to the higher managers / authorized personnel's in lg company however, my requests were always declined.
When ever i called customer care or direct number to gzb office, some rude girls (Like robot) answers my calls and never responded professionally however they mentioned that if the product stopped working twice a month or we see any challenges with products by our self twice a month then only it will replaced.
As my complaint was every 4-6 months, as per them it is not their problem and it can be entertain again & again by lg team. It was completely refused and ignored.
At last, few days back, lg team contacted me and informed me that they will replace my refrigerator however, will charge some amount which consumer needs to bear for the replacement and i agreed on the same.
Now, again i got information that it was been rejected by higher management and refrigerator will not be replaced nor they will fix. Everything has been dumbed back on consumer.
Please be informed. I am tired from complaining and running behind your team for my rights. Its time for me to take next step and register an official complain to consumer court.
Please note: its not a matter of money, now its a matter of consumer rights and time. We have not received any professional response from your team till date and struggling every single day for our rights.
We have kept all the records of complaints and follow ups with lg team and should we not hear from you anything with in 48hrs, unfortunately we will have to take this to court.
Also, if you required, we will be happy to assist you with the names and contacts details of lg team members we have been contacted so far.
We expect for urgent assistance to avoid future complaints and happening.
Please feel free to contact us anytime, if you required any further information.
Thank you & regards
Your consumer
