LG Electronics Complaints & Reviews

My Name U. Nagaraj Padiyar a regular customer of LG household products. My washing Machine is not working and I visited the authorised service center in Mangalore ( Innovative Access Mannar Comples, New Balmatta Road, Joythi, Mangalore)on 13/11/2010 and the service center people denied to give me the spare part(Door Magnate) saying that they can't sell the spare parts directly to the customers & asked me to lodge a service complaint so that they can send their person to fix the same.

Please clarify whether the service center can't sell the spare parts directly to the customers? if the customer doesn’t need the service of the company service people?

If so please provide the supporting documentary evidence for the same.

Hi!

Im sorry to say that LGIndia is a big cheat and fraudulent company operating in India . 1 week back , I purchased a 8047 model microwave from Govinda Distributors , Boring Road Crossing , Patna , Bihar . To my utter shock , an old used microwave with burnt wires and used chassis came out of the brand new carton with 8047 label . Even this used microwave was of some other model .

I suggest to all users on this forum to launch a mass campaign against these corrupt practices of a foreign multinational duping the Indian citizens . Being a IIM student , I won't tolerate this nonsense and am going to sue the company for the monetary damage and the time and mental peace lost in this purchase . I'll be sending a link on facebook soon . Please join .

If the deaf company officials are listening ( coz I got no reply to my compliant on their official website ), please do the following immediately :-
1. Get the model I paid for delivered immediately to me .
2. Cancel the distributorship of thieves like " Govinda's"

Thanks and Regards

We bought LG refrigerator of 286 Liter capacity about 10 years back. Our refrigerator is working fine, but all its trays are broken. We have been calling LG customer care but they are telling that trays of that model is not available and we should discard the refrigerator.

Kindly help us get the trays for the refrigerator as it makes no sense to discard the refrigerator just because the trays are broken.

M/S Mahaveer Distributors ([protected],[protected]), No.939, Basement, Kishan Complex, Behind Hotel Dasaprakash, KT Street Cross, Mysore - 570001 (Dealers in LG India / Double Door Refrigerator) has delivered a Damaged Double Door Refrigerator Model GL408YSQG4/2010 (Dent in the Door) on 3rd September 2010 at 10.30 PM at night to the residence of Mr.Denis D'souza, 27, 1st Stage, 3rd Cross, Gokulam, Mysore - 570002.

The said defect was identified by Mr.Denis D'souza in the morning on 4th September 2010 and was immediately reported to M/S Mahaveer Distributors. A representative of M/S Mahaveer Distributors promised to have the entire refrigerator replaced in 15 days time.

On no response being received from M/S Mahaveer Distributors reminders were given and ultimately the first complaint regarding the defective refrigerator was given to the Call Center of LG India on 28th September 2010 (C[protected]). Further there was no response by LG and another complaint (C10A3028922) was lodged for replacement of the entire Double Door Refrigerator Model GL408YSQG4/2010 with Call Center Executive Ms.Amrita on 30th October 2010. This was also unattended and finally a last complaint (C10B0234087) was registered for replacement of the entire Double Door Refrigerator Model GL408YSQG4/2010 with Call Center Executive Ms.Nidhi on 2nd November 2010.

Mr.Manoharan - [protected] (Service Unit Head of Mysore LG Division) sent the Engineer Mr.Pasha to the residence of Mr.Denis D'souza, 27, 1st Stage, 3rd Cross, Gokulam, Mysore - 570002. Post inspection, Mr.Pasha and Mr.Manoharan mentioned that we would be eligible only for a Door replacement and not replacement of the entire Double Door Refrigerator. This has shattered our minds w.r.t the service standards of LG India.

Hence we urge you to get us justice by replacement of the entire Double Door Refrigerator.

Regards,
Mr.Denis D'Souza

We have a new LG washing machine (barely 7-8 months old) and it developed a problem. We called the LG customer care atleast 5-6 times each with a days gap, each time all we got was a complaint number but no one actually came around to fix it even though they said someone would come today. So we ended up wasting time waiting for the person to come. The machine is still under warranty. We even complained via the LG website, to the customer support head office, Vijay Sales (the place where we bought the machine from ) and yet there has been no response.

All their ads are such a sham. Life is definately not good after buying LG products

My name is Sooraj and i had given my LG DVD player for repairs. The problem was the power board . They changed the SMPS and returned it back. But NOW THERE IS NO AUDIO NOR VIDEO OUTPUT. They tested it infront of me by JUST SWITCHING it ON with NO TV to check its AUDIO or VIDEO. When i called them regarding the same , they told that it is the T.V's fault , but when i told the T.V works fine , they told it may be the AV Cable's fault , i changed the AV cable and tried , still it's not working. So i lodged a complaint in their toll free no[protected] on 11th nov , still no response from their side . NAME OF THE SERVICE CENTRE IS " TECHNO CARE" , Calicut , Kerala.

We have taken a three year AMC from LG, now when we have a complaint, we are directed to a local vendor who send us the following email stating that you have to pay the following amount else we can't repair your machine, whats the point of taking an AMC specially for three years form a company who directs you to a local vendor and then ask for all kinds of charges mentioning the AMC clauses.

( Its worth mentioning that we have a working machine and the complaint is for the noise the machine is making while spinning , Its also important to state that their engineer who visited us initially told that the machine only require a wash and needs to be taken to their office, hence we are in trap, in both the cases we have to pay even if we don't ask them to change the body parts they will charge us for the transportation etc.

Hi,

I am Deepak Patra. I bought one 81 CM LCD TV from Reliance Digital on 16 May 2010 for Rs.38,500.00. On 19 Oct 2010, I had some problem with my LCD with regard to the switching it on. I lodged a complaint with the customer service department on 20 Nov 2010. My further follow ups are as follows.

20/10/2010- Complain lodged, Request ID – C10A2037145
21/10/2010- Got an SMS saying, your request ID C10A2037145 is closed without any communication with me. Reason: Customer will call again.

21/10/2010- Complain lodged again for the second time, Request ID – C10A2229906
22/10/2010- Got an SMS saying, your request ID C10A22229906 is closed without any communication with me. Reason: Customer will call again.

22/10/2010- Complain lodged again for the third time, Request ID – C10A2410768
23/10/2010- Got an SMS saying, your request ID C10A2410768 is closed without any communication with me. Reason: Customer will call again.

23/10/2010- Complain lodged again for the fourth time, Request ID – C10A2318309
25/10/2010- LG engineer (Mr. Gaikward) visited my place to check the LCD and confirmed that one part is faulty and is required to be replaced. He took that part for replacement and assured me that it will be replaced within 3 days.
30/10/2010- Got an SMS saying, your request ID C10A2318309 is in process. Reason: Parts not available.
10/11/2010- Got an SMS saying, your request ID C10A2318309 is closed without any communication with me. Reason: Customer will call again.

10/11/2010- Complain lodged again for the fifth time, Request ID – C10B1029805
12/11/2010- No response so far from LG.

Every time I call the customer service department, I am given either a new complain number or an assurance that, it will be taken care within 24 hours. But that 24 hours has not yet come since last one month. Within four months when I bought the LCD, if parts are not available then what will happen after the expiry of one year of warranty period. Is this a use and throw item or what.

Brand LG promises "Life's good " for customers by assured maintenance service. This has not been my experience till date and I urge LG to raise to the Brand promise printed on the catalogs.

As a loyal customer I demand that the LCD TV be replaced with a new one / my money back asap. Otherwise I have no option left but to approach the consumer court regarding this.

We would appreciate a response in return.

Hi

I have recently shifted my base from Bangalore to Hyderabad. After settling down here i have contacted LG customer care for reinstalling my Washing machine. (Id C10B0613881). I got a call from one of the representatives after a day, asking about the issue. After which there is absolutely no response.
I would have called the customer care atleast 7 times for the same and every time gets the same response ( will get back to you with in 24 hrs). I would describe this kind of service as pathetic, and would like to warn any prospective customers about this torturing process. The products might be good, but buy it only if you are staying next to a LG service center. Otherwise your life is going to be miserable.

By voicing my issues here, i am not sure what actions they will take, but atleast 1 person will be able to benifit from this.

regards
Bala

Hello,

This is to complaint against the un-acceptable customer service received from LG after purchasing new Top Loading Fully Automatic Washing Machine( 7519PR ), from V.N. Agency Pvt. Ltd. Uttam Nagar, New Delhi( Sr.No. 19160 ) on 3'Nov 2010 on the auspicious occasion of Dhanteras. For which the Demo was supposed to be done within 2 working days which is not yet been attended or rather no one has answered to our calls properly giving us a specific time that when will be the LG rep. will be coming for the demo. The services has been worst than ever we have faced by any of the consumer products Co. and LG is one of the best selling product this season, don't know how many customers will be yelling for the services filled with anger. If this kind of services continue i wonder how the co. would continue to grow as After sales service matters a lot for future sales growth.

I wish that my complaint for the Demo will be considered seriously else i wish to return the product on the grounds of not delivering the services.

When Sales executive has opened the seal pack box, heinformed that oulet pipe is missing, hence you cannot use the machine. We have forwarded the cmplaint both at showroom and LG customer care on 1st of November. But till date, no response received from them. Now they have stopped talking to us also.

Balaji,

As per our telephonic conversation today morning, you are unable to repair the product.

In that case I would like to have all my money back(as mentioned in receipt) and you can arrange to pick up the product as soon as possible from my home.

I am left with no faith in product quality and after sales service of LG so please atleast process this action immediately!


Thanks & Regards,

Piyush Mathur

Hi,

PFA the scanned copies of Original receipt and Warranty card for the Plasma TV as required by you.
Also note that, since, the payment was made on 15th Nov '09 the receipt is having that date on it but the Product was actually delivered on 20th Nov 2009 (mentioned on receipt also as due delivery) the warranty starts from 20th Nov 2009 which is correctly mentioned on Warranty card with dealer's stamp.

Please take immediate action as the complaint was raised on 17th October 2010 but still it is not resolved.

Thanks & Regards,

Piyush Mathur

Unsatisfactory Service - Immediate
Action Required










Hi,

I recently purchased two new products of LG 1. 42" Plasma TV 2. Double door Refrigerator

Both the above products are having defects and I raised complaint with LG call centre several times. Both are in warranty and the local service person Mr. Sanjay is telling us that they are awaiting spare parts whenever we ask him for the repair of products.
I am really tired of this LG brand name as such because they make tall claims of after sales service but when the actual time of service comes they provide excuses and not the desired service.
I am giving just 2 more days to you to take required action on this if you at LG really have some business ethics.
After that I'll be left with no other option apart from raising complaint against LG in consumer court for this incident of no service provided in warranty.

Looking forward for an immediate action on this!






Thanks & Regards,


Piyush Mathur
