LG Electronics Complaints & Reviews

Sir/ Madam,

1. Please refer complains No. RNA[protected], RNA[protected], RNA[protected], RNA[protected], RNA[protected], RNA[protected].

2. Customer details-

Name of the customer- GS Kirola
Mob No: [protected], [protected]
Present address: House No. 535/3, Air Force Station Bhisiana, Bhatinda, Punjab.
E-mail- [protected]@rediffmail.com
3. Product details-

LG washing machine, fully automatic, Top loading, Model No: WFT 6517 TE, Date of purchase: 22 Jan 2004 (out of warranty).

4. The initial snag on the above mentioned machine was abnormal sound during washing. First complain was registered with LG customer care in May 12. Technician came to my house and he advised to bring the machine to repair agency at Bathinda for change of Clutch assembly. Clutch assembly was changed and paid Rs 3398 on 26 May 12 to repair agency. I brought the machine at home, when checked it was found that the drum was rotating in one direction only. Again took the machine to repair agency and brought back after repair, when checked it was found that this time the drum was not rotating in spin mode. Again complain registered, technician came to house, spin problem was rectified but during rectification process water leak developed during the complete washing process. After few days again registered the complain. Technician came to home and advised for change of drain valve. Drain valve changed on 28 Jul 12 and paid Rs 365. Water leak stopped but again the drum was not rotating in spin mode. Like wise about for more than 10 times technicians has come to my home but they are not able to rectify the snag. In short- when water leak stops spin problem develops and vise versa. Including transportation charges I have paid about Rs 5000 for this machine. Where as the cost of new machine of similar model for me through CSD is Rs 12,260. I understand this is a great loss & inconvenience for me, due to poor technical knowledge of LG Company and Service Center. Now I do’t need any repair service for the same machine from LG. But at the same time I will have to purchase a new machine. Should I go for LG? It’s question for you. Any comments, please reply on my e-mail- [protected]@rediffmail.com.

Customer care number extremely rude and unconcerned about complaint. AC not working for more than 10 days now. After calling 3-4 different numbers, they say they will come to collect the unit only when they have another work to do in the same area and they cannot come just to collect my unit. Since the unit is under warranty, they are obviously not keen to provide me the required service.

After speaking to them, since they recognise my number, everyone has stopped picking up calls from my numbers.

This is regarding LG mobile model no LG E400, which i bought on 28 June, 2012. After one month i got the problem in hand set and give it to LG customer care center ( Comhard Technologies pvt. ltd. Laxmi Nagar, New Delhi) on 17/08/2012. They give me the timing that your phone will be repaired till 24/05/2012. But till the date my mobile is not repaired and service center is not giving me satisfactory answer.
Please take the action for this.

I am having LG Refrigerator modle GRT282 GV. The upper tray is damaged.Needs replacement.Not getting support from service centre.Needs intetvention.Thanks.mobile no [protected]

Sir, It was horrible experience with LG since the day I purchased your product (LG TV 21 FU6RG3T8 now under AMC)till date, I thought a big band like you must believe in fair customer services but my Experience were completely wrong.
It is very much annoying that every time I had to lodge a complain for same fault and your attended technician could not detect the cause of the fault. Although they tried their best and replaced / repaired...

My LG Refrigerator is not working since 20.08.2012 as gas is discharged . I lodged my compint no. RMA[protected] on 22.08.2012 with LG Cutomer care at Noida. But till date no body has turned up for attending the complaint despite assurances every day from Mr. Sameer Dewan, Ms. Alka, Ms. Kiran of LG that they will come tomorrow. I recommend that nobody should buy LG products as their post sale service is worst.

Hi LG Team

I am writing to you as a result of countless arguments and follow up
with the LG Customer care and Region Centers for a wrong buy.

We had bought a 42 inch TV from one of the famous retail outlets on
15th Aug'12 at Mumabi. The Outlet displayed a huge board of amazing
discount of 40% on a 42 inch LED 3D TV, which seemed to be an
irresistible buy for a middle class family like ours.

Having the TV delivered to my cousins house in Mumbai, we paid the
additional cost
of travel at the mumbai Airport to Bangalore.

On 23rd Aug we requested for installation of TV. Seeing no response
from the local LG team we asked the Call Centre guys for a POC at
Bangalore. NO BODY seemed to pick the phone even after ringing 10 - 15
times. After several other follow ups from the customer care we got
Mohans number. We were promised an immediate support within 24 hrs.
Again after several followups we had someone do the installation for
us. Post installation, the TV DID NOT TURN ON!!!

The Demo guy obviously had no idea what was wrong, said he would send
an engineer to fix it within 24 hrs. The procedure o[censored]s following up
continued when an engineer came to diagnose the problem. The same
story of being "lost" and keeping us in the "dark" continued when he
said, "Sir I don't know, you will get a call tomorrow". After several
followups from us AGAIN, and to and fro conversations, we get a revert
that they will not be able to replace the TV, they would however fix
it for us.

Now can someone or anyone answer me the below questions.

1. Why would i want to pay a huge lump some amount for a repaired TV
and still assume it as a new TV???
2. Aug '15th showed other brands of amazing discounts which we did not
opt for and bought LG assuming it was the best buy. If we are refunded
the money right now, will we have to wait for another festival to buy
a new tv?
3. We paid 62994 after discount. The local team claims to refund the
amount which was billed at the retail store. After 2 weeks of
maintaining the TV, ensuring the safety from mumbai to bangalore, who
is going to refund the extra amount of endless followups we have made
to the customer service, local team, Mr Mohan, the engineer and the
damage done to our walls due to drilling of the wall mount stand???

This is an absolute breach of trust and customer service. As a
customer i demand immediate revert on how will this be resolved. This
will also be my final communication to LG as a company for any
complaints. I will ensure I spend all my time and money at the
consumer court to receive justice on this.

Hi,

I own a LG HDMI DVD 5.1 player which got some problem recently due to which I gave it to LG Authorized service center at Sanpada, Navi Mumbai on 13th June 2012 almost two months for repair.

The service personnel whom I was coordinating told me there is power issue & it will take time to repair so after repeated calls & visits & reminders for almost 45 days I managed to get the DVD player back

After reaching home I started & again stopped playing within minutes after playing the device then i returned it to them for repair & now they came up with another excuse of part problem

I had already spent INR 1200 to repair & now they are asking for INR 2500 more else they are returning the player in earlier condition

My question is why are they so unskilled to keep changing the problem & in same rate was repairs is equal to new DVD player.

To add to this when I escalated this to Service Manager he was arrogant, rude & highly disrespectful even when i shared that I can go to consumer forum he challenged stating "you can go ahead"?

I am a repeat customer for LG & its appliances since ages, is this treatment expected out of you guys????

I purchased L.G washing machine in november 2011.Its model no.
P8533R4M. Its buzzer is weak from the day I bought .dealer said in this modal their is no buzzer.
I complained in toll free no of company they said there is buzzer and it is registered
no action is taken . I complained in warrenty period it,create lots of problem. Please help me.

My LG LED Smart TV has a problem in terms of video. I had complained on the 9th of August and still the issue is not resolved. There has been periodic excuses from the technician like :
1. The company has sent LCD panel in an LED pack. Therefore I had ordered for another panel.
This excuse stayed for 3-4 days and after no response from them, I called again called for the status. This time there was another excuse :
2. The panel that was sent by the company is broken, so, ordered for another one. After regular calling him for knowing what had happened, he finally started to cut the call seeing my number. After 1-2 days, he finally attended the call and replied telling that I had told you that I have ordered. Please dont call me. I doubt whether the company follows this method of handling the customers. One fine day, on the 24th of August, the person called me and told that he will be coming in 1/2-an-hour to change the panel. He came and started working and finally there was another excuse :
3. An LCD panel has been kept in an LED pack(the same reason as said earlier). When asked why didnt he checked earlier his excuse was :
4. We can open the pack in the company. This was totally unexpected as he was the person who told me that reason first time after checking and now...

This is totally not acceptable from LG. My worry is that, I had complained 2 months back about a problem in my video for which the same person came and told me that this is a problem with my Dish Antenna. Is it anything wrong to complain about a problem in LG? I would not have disappointed to this level but I had a previous experience with LG is resolving my complaint for LG fridge. This is too much and I never know whether the managers know all these happening even after 2 weeks a call is open.

Dear Sir
I have complained with their service centre detais are as under


1) RNA #.[protected] Dt……….They did not care to write date
2) Inv# 2971 Dt …………..Did not write date but it is on[protected]
3) Verbally they informed that part is not available and will fix it “AS SOON AS AVILABL” No promise of date
4) They ask you to call every 3rd day. As if we are their Employee.

Is this the sort of service we get from LG?

Thanks...............Himat Joshi

This is my continuation of my first complaint gave on 3rd July,2012.
After my complaint the service engineer came to my home.. He did something. After that there was no water leakage.

But after that, the washing machine is not taking enough water to wash and rinse the clothes.(taking very little water) We told the engineer about this.. He came and changed the board. We put the singnature in the form with the comment "under observation" (he didnt come after that)

Till now the problem continues. We compained again. But they are not properly responding.

Problems are coming frequently.
In the past one and half years we registered complaint so many times (different problems). We are not happy with our washing machine.
We want replacement of our washing machine.


Please do the needful.
Thanks and Regards,
Velu.

Dear Sir,

Please note that I have been recently purchased a LG make LCD-LED monitor of size 18.5 inch, model-LG E1942C. The monitor was offered with a McAfee Antivirus, absolutely free for a year. Accordingly, LG confirmation mail received from [protected]@india.com copy of which is given below for yr reference and record.

LG Confirmation mail sent to Mr. <[protected]@rediffmail.com on 20/07/12 and the same was forwarded to me on 30/07/12:

Dear Mr. tanmay,

As a privileged LG customer, you are entitled to a McAfee AntiVirus, absolutely Free for a year.

Your McAfee key is: W4K62-PJJG9-T5X5M-G8Q87-ABHBH

This is how you can download it:

Step 1: Go to http://www.mcafee.com/lge/mav
