From the very first day phone's back cover is not properly fitting on phone. I went to that shop from where i bought the phone and they said go to customer care center its not their fault and then customer care center executive said that its not their fault and said go to that shop only. One more problem, I told shopkeeper that i need a phone which can play hd(.mp4) video & he assured me that it supports hd format, i bought phone on his statement but it doesn't playing any hd video.Its kind of harassment.So i want you to take quick action as early as possible.I am waiting for your reply.

Technical details of Plazma TV is, it like compressed Gas filled TV as picture tube and manufacturer
claims expected life of 1,00,000 hours without any problem. But there is a technological problem for Plazama TV is remaining of ghost effect or burning of screen at the place where logo of DTH provider and Channel constantly remains as the particular location of the screen. This is due to inside layer of the panel which is coated with phosphorous get continuous bombardment which burn this phosphorous layer leaves such ghost effects seen even after you shut down your TV. So the Plazama TV is not recommended to use as Computer Monitor or to disable screensaver or donot freeze/pause the picture while watching through DVD.
Manufacturer including LG claims that they have some type some of the arrangements by which the screen is continuously and slightly keep on moving so that the location of these logos gets changing which will avoid such ghost effect or burning of the screen. But it is not true in case of LG, or at least in my Plazama TV set as I observe such burning or ghost effect even the the Plazama TV is used only for about 8 months.
Authorised service people of LG, are of that opinion that let the said company claims about their latest technology, but it just to misguide and to make the customer fool. Such ghost effect will always remain in all Plazama TV manufactured by LG but as the customer are not conscious about the issue, nothing has come up so far. When I become very hares with them, LG has taken the said Plazama TV to their authorised service station and return it with the making the said problem more complex. Although they claims that they have replaced the panel but now the picture quality is further detoriated and there are bright ghost effects which can be noticed even from 10 feet distance and even power supply is disconnected. I have all doubts that they have done anything. When I further contacted LG and their authorized service people, they have deliberatively continued to dilly-dally on the issue since last so many days.
As the said Plazama TV is under warranty, they advise me that let your warranty period gets over, then they will solve my problem by charging handsome amount from me. I doubt that LG company is also supporting them for such strategy as nobody responsible from LG is ready to communicate with me in this regards. This may be the strategy of LG company prolong the issue so that the warranty period gets over and then raise their hands and let customer pay them for their fault. This becomes more believable when I kept on registering complaint through their telephonic helpline and to their mail id, I got no response.
Present status of my defective Plazama TV lying LG's authorised service station awaiting for solution of the problem since last so many days and LG is consuming my warranty period.
My friend got the Plazama TV of other reputed brand and he does not have such problem even after long period o[censored]se and happy with other companies response and service.

My complaint registration numbers are RNA[protected] Dated 23/1/12), RNA[protected]Dated 30/1/12) and RNA[protected]Dated 2/2/12)

I purchased a 32 inch LCD TV from LG in 2009 September/ October. December 2011 it stopped working. I raised complaint and technician came and said will inform manager that LCD panel gone and will take 15000. 37000 paid for TV just 2 years back now they say I need ot pay 15000 more for their faulty bad quality product. I took this from my company allowance which says 5 years for TV now I need to pay my company if I have to replace product and also LG. The customer manager has no time to call or talk or resolve and the company has no shame about the faulty product which failed in 2 years. I suggest no one buy LG TV as its customer care and product quality is untrustworthy and poor customers are at loss. Better take cheaper products and even if damaged it will be less loss than so called branded products lie LG Pay high and suffer product failure and insult of customer "service" and unprofessional "management". I gave mail and contact also and no calls for a week now. my mail id is [protected]@yahoo.com and I already mailed 4 times to the customer service.

Dear Sir,

This is with regard to my complain for LG Microwave. I have been struggling with my LG Microwave and have contacted to their customer care centre 3-4 times. The complain no. is RNA1201200. The convection mode is not working so i called the LG people from Noida office. they visited and said that this need to be fixed at the workshop and the van will come to pick it up. After a week when i again contacted to the customer care office the person called me back saying that this model has been disconitnued and hence LG cannot provide any repair.

My question is to the company that if this is the case that if LG is not able to provide any sales support and repair after 5 yrs of buying a product then they should inform this before sales. From this policy what does LG wants to say- that ppl should spend and expect the life only for 5 yrs and then throw it away and buy a new one. Doing this they are keeping the customers in dark and cheating the Indian public. For me its a lesson learnt and would not buy any LG product now onwards. B'coz we don't spend money to use it only for 5 yrs. After sales and repair is what every one needs.
I am tired of complaining to LG but its falling on their deaf ears. So, as a hope i am writing it to you. Buying a new Microwave is not a issue for me but i want talk to LG ppl regarding this policy. For me its not a fair trade practice.

Tripti

I had bought a high end Refrigerator (GC-L217FLQ) from an authorized dealer of LG in April'11. The refrigerator stopped working on 30.12.2011. I lodged a complaint on the same day comp. no. RNA[protected] was given to me.
Our misery started from that day, the first person who came said some part needs to be changed and that the same was not in stock and it would take a few days. After a good 5 days later the part was replaced but still the fridge would not work. I then had to follow up with them to get service refrigerator; as I was told that the 2 other parts would now need to be changed and which were also not in stock.After repeated calling up the service refrigerator was finally delivered. The parts required according to the service personnel were once again replaced yet the fridge would not work!
More then 2 persons visited our house and none was able to resolve the issue.
Finally I was told that a replacement fridge would be given, after waiting for a couple of days, when no replacement came I was told by their Manager; Mr. Sameer Saini ( [protected]) that the fridge model was discontinued and that they would refund my money.( This model still appears on thier web site by the way) When I insisted that he share with me the company policy and put me on to a senior person as I was not satisfied with his replies he point blank refused to do so. When told that the MRP of the fridge was more and moreover the prices had gone up since I brought the fridge they were escaping their liability of servicing for even the first year; they should either give me an equivalent model or refund the MRP price. He assured me he would call , but never got back to me.
I request the senior management to look into the grievances and the relevant government authority to check this practice of palming of sub standard product(s) by such 'Goliath' MNC companies in India. I am sure in any other country they could not have got away with this daylight robbery.

I brought lg WT-H950 modal last three months before. but it work failed with in one month.
after that i called and give complaint (rna[protected]ph:[protected] but no response....
so i called after 4 times but not yer come to solve my problem

I am D.S.Murty. I have purchased a LCD TV at from Reliance Digital at Hyderabad on[protected]. In the scratch card, i won LG Mobile. They asked me to submit the scratch card (code : 542494), address proof etc. at their office at Secunderabad. I personally went there and submitted the required forms and got the acknowledgement too. They told me that i would receive the gift in three weeks to my address. I waited for about 8 weeks. Later i called customer care people. They gave me a number. I spoke to that person. He said he would get back with details. I waited for about a week for him to get back to me with details. Again I called. Then he gave me another number. The new executive told me that he would get back. another week passed. I called again. He told me that he would get back in few minutes. I waited for a day and called him again. Then he told that the gifts are being processed from Delhi and i will receive it soon. I waited for about one month and yesterday (17th January 2012). He told me that i should call the next morning (today, 18th Jan 2012). I called him. He said he was in a meeting and "get back to me in 5 minutes"... the prototype dialogue. I only called him after about two hours at around 12 PM . Then he told me that the gift has been "delivered" to me.....! I asked him when and through which courier service, so that i can track it locally. He said that he is a "marketing manager" and not concerned with dispatching section (how do I know it anyway..) and "get back" to me with details in a day or so....i felt very bad. When submitting the scratch card, those people ask for every particular and proof ; but when it comes to dispatching the gifts, they behave so irresponsibly. How shall I proceed ? How many times i should be calling them ? ( I dont mind naming the LG people with whom I spoke, but i dont know whether we can do it or not).

Sir,
I have to bring to your notice that I had written a letter, reproduced below, to which I did not get any response to the issues raised by me except the acknowledgement. I had not claimed any compensation but it was only a feedback which I thought your people will determine the accuracy and relevancy to know what they are doing right and where they need to improve. In case investigation proves to be true what I have stated in my letter then I must be compensated by replacement or repair free of cost. I hope you will not disappoint me in responding this Mail.

Sir,

I feel it obligatory on my part, as a consumer, to bring to your notice the following facts.

My son purchased a Mobile handset on 27.06.2008 at Bhubaneswar vide Model No: LG-RD 6100 / RSN: RLGHS [protected]. In the first week of this month it developed a problem – when switched on, the light with the word LG appeared on the screen and it disappeared with in a fraction of a second and again automatically appeared and went off. This ON/OFF continues until disconnected from the battery. When approached your service centre, they said there is problem with the Mother Board which needs replacement and it will cost more than `700.00. As stated by you the self protection function of the battery cuts power of the phone when its operation is in an abnormal state. If your claim is correct then there should not be any damage to the components inside the handset. Any way I am not an Engineer or Electronic expert but the durability of the equipment is under question as you also state “ LG creates handsets that provide an optimized mobile experience to customers around the world, with cutting-edge technology & innovative handset design capabilities, with advanced wireless solutions.”

I am sure while designing this set your R & D people must have kept in mind the durability or the life span of the components fitted inside the handset which can never be two & half years. I feel there must be some assembling or manufacturing error in this handset which needs to be investigated by you though the warranty period is over.

Thanking you and expecting that the response will not be denied.

Sub: Unscrupulous elements in LG after sales service network

Dear Sir,

I would like to bring to you kind notice the following facts :
1. Our washing machine make LG (Tromm) went out of order. Please note that it is out of service warranty.
2. We made a complaint through your call center toll free no.[protected] on Sunday 8th Jan 2012 08:50 AM. The person attended the call given us the complaint no. RNA[protected] and assured for early rectification.
3. We again reminded your call center on Monday 9th Jan 2012 when no one turned up.
4. On 11th Jan 2012, a person from your authorized service center (as told by him) A-One Services, 56, Double Rd, Indira Nagar, Bangalore – 560038 attended the complain of washing machine. After checking he informed that drain Motor/pump of machine has gone out of order. He told us that he will come next day with Drain motor after taking spare from service center stores.
5. Accordingly the same person come on Thursday, 12th Jan 2012 and replaced the Drain motor / pump. He charged us Rs 1540/- as cost of Drain motor and Rs 386 as service charges vide bill no 107 dated 12/01/2012. He then informed us that machines is ready and can be operated. And he left our premises.
6. When we operated the washing machines we found unusual loud sound when water got drained.
7. Then we again lodged the complaint through your call center on Thursday 12th Jan 2012 (same day) regarding the unusual sound of newly replaced Drain motor vide complaint no. RNA[protected] dated 12th Jan 2012.
8. On Friday 13th Jan 2012 another technician came and noted the unusual sound. But after checking the bill he informed that the before said person was not from LG Service Center.
9. After taking the telephone no. of local service center we reported the matter to Mr. Shareef. Tel no. [protected]. And he assured us to investigate the matter but not committed to replace the Drain motor. He perhaps need the permission of seniors.
10. In light of above events it appears the same illegal service centers are operating in Bangalore with the connivance of your call center for cheating the customers and spoil name of your esteem organization. As we tried the tel no. given on the bill (landline as well as mobile) in presence of your technician. But all are found out of order.

You are therefore requested to investigate the whole matter in details how the call center has forwarded the complaint to said service center to attend the job. Perhaps the person generated complaint no. RNA[protected] at your call center has forwarded the complaint ti said service center. Or may be the technician whom this call got assigned from service center have passed the information to fake person misrepresenting LG. Please do investigation to find real person behind the racket. We further request your legal service center over here to replace the Drain motor free of charge and investigate matter in details to avoid cheating of other customers and daming repute of LG.

Hoping an early action in this regard. I will appreciate if you respond to this mail for acknowledgement.

Thanks,

I have purchased a direct drive Lg washing machine model number 1256 qdp ..7 kgs , from Pai Electronics Udupi on 22nd dec 2011.
there is a lot of vibration especially when the machine is in the dryer mode .The Lg service men came in two times , both the times after repeated calls , and the reason they give for the vibration is that the floor is uneven !!! This is India , and quality control is pretty poor here and hence the floors in most of the building are uneven , I guess i should have asked them about this before purchasing machine worth 35,000.....where in I could get the same product by IFB for 10,000 less??? What I am asking is that wouldn't you have any method of correcting the unevenness by adjusting the legs??? I went in for this machine ,my first LG product ,since i have heard of a very efficient after sales service by LG ....but I am surely unsatisfied ! I hope my complaint will be attended shortly and the issue be resolved . Otherwise , I am very satisfied with the machine , its an excellent one ...on par with the Frigidaire machine I was using abroad...This is a small problem ,which can be fixed by an efficient technician ...please read between the lines!

I bought an LCD on dated 22/09/2011 of L.G. (Model no.- W2043C-PF-BTRVAPL ; Serial No. - 105PMKT016349) from Kalyan computer, Jalandhar through E Work Point, Kartarpur. It came out to be defective after 10 days o[censored]se. A distinctive yellow vertical line began to appear in the middle of the screen. I filed a complaint on the same day to the company (L.G Support service). After around 10 days, an agent from L.G visited my place to have a look at the issue with the LCD. He replied back that the LCD was being covered with rust at certain points from within and he further suggested to bring the LCD to their service center at Jalnadhar so as to talk with senior authorities. When I took that to there, they declared that It was a physical damage issue (rust) and they cannot deal with it (Dated : 24/10/2011)
There was not any physical damage done by me to the LCD. Moreover, I used the LCD for just 10 days, so there is no chance of any such damage.
