Microsoft Complaints & Reviews

I bought a microsoft lumia640xl about two years ago. When i bought it was windows 8 and i have updated nit to windows 10. Now my phone is not working just because i didn't update it again. My software and hardware has been destroyed. Just because i haven't updated it my phone and money has been wasted. I haven't even heard a mobile phoned destroyed due to not updating its software. This is a huge mistake made by microsoft. Now you take this phone back and give my money back.

I was working as Assistant general manager with SBI. The bank has provided me the HP laptop along with windows operating system. The same is not working properly now. You are requested to update the operating system at the earliest as I am unable to operate my mails.

Thanks & Regards

In september of 2016, i bought two identical phones at walmart. They were locked to t-mobile, which allowed use with walmart family mobile. A few months ago, both phones refused to charge on the oem chargers. I purchased two new oem batteries, thinking that should be the solution. It was not. The problems persisted. The only way i can charge these phones is via usb. Until yesterday, that included usb-to-ac chargers. Now, they will only charge via usb to computer.in addition, they are both experiencing 'no service' more and more often. This never happened previous to the other problems. I had the carrier reset the phones. Problems persist. There is no contact info for microsoft as these are out-of-warranty. I have been unable to find anyone else who has had the same problems with this model — or any other model of ms lumia phone. My concern is that i am having the same exact problems on two identical phones — and both started having problems simultaneously. I want someone to listen to me about this, but neither ms or t-mobile is taking responsibility. There is something very strange going on...

My name is kunal chowdhary and i had purchased microsoft surface pro 4 recently in feb 2017. However during the course of last week of may 2016 there was an issue with the charging port of laptop and the laptop was not getting charged. On googling and seeing various alternatives i came to know that i can create a repair for my surface and send the same for repair. I did the same on 25 may 2017 and with a prompt reply microsoft team scheduled a pick up for my product. I was advised to pack the surface book properly using a proper box and everything. The laptop was packed in front of the shipping person in absolutely perfect condition (Except that the laptop wasnt getting charged) and the same was shipped to microsoft warehouse in india. On 31 may 2017 i received an email from microsoft team stating that they have received the product and they emailed saying, 'your item will be reviewed by our exchange center and a replacement will be processed. Your replacement item will ship soon (Usually within a few days), subject to inventory availability and shipper delays.'
Pursuant to the above email on 2 june 2017 i got another email from microsoft stating that your product has been repaired and shipped back to you with the awb number.
Pursuant to the above email, i received my laptop on 6 june 2017 and when i opened the box i see that my laptop screen is completely shattered. Seeing this i got a very big shock that for such an expensive product screen is broken (I assumed that it was broken in transit). I immediately contacted all possible people microsoft service center (Toll free number) microsoft warehouse in india.in the meanwhile i saw that let me check if laptop is getting charged. Surprisingly the laptop was getting charged and there was a dent near the charging dock and the screen had mainly shattered from that point itself. On talking to the customer support team they informed me that they received the product itself in damaged condition. I was surprised that how can they even say such a thing and if they received the product in damaged condition atleast they can call me and inform so that i can check with fedex (Chosen by microsoft) as to how the laptop was broken in transit when it was absolutely perfect when it left from my office. But no conversation what so ever. After talking to customer team and escalation team for over 10 days i gave up all hopes since they were saying the same thing again and again that they received damaged product and they forfeited my warranty. Moreover i have sent them pics of laptop being in perfect condition when packed and received in damaged condition. However, they have not responded to those messages. Also when i am asking them for photos (Since warehouse in india is outsourced and these people send pictures of products received to microsoft hq) i have refused several times stating that this is microsoft property and we cant share photos. Such an incident can happen with anyone and microsoft refuses to help me in any way. They asking me to buy a separate monitor and use my surface as a cpu thats it. Even after emailing everyday that can we have a call to discuss no response has been received. Moreover they arent even sharing pictures, for someone who buys a laptop of rs 80000 this is what service microsoft gives in india then i would recommend all india people not to buy microsoft product since there is such a bad response from their customer support. I will like to post this so that others who have microsoft and ever face such a problem beware of microsoft becuase they will call your laptop break it ans send it back to you.

Hi, i have lumia 540 and after updation to windows 10, it showing battery issue. I visited one lumia care to check the issue, they told either they will downgrade to windows 8.1 (Which will charge 450) or change the chip (Charge around 2k). I asked them take the phone check the issue and after than do the needful, but they told they can either downgrade or change chip. As mentioned in varios microsoft blog i asked them to downgrade to 8.1, but i can see still same battery issue. My question is why i am charged 450 unnecessary and how to resolve this issue quickly.
Waiting for quick response

Hi,
It has been more than 5 months that I gave my Lumia 720(alongwith the charger) for resolving some charging issues with the device at Microsoft service centre(Ganpati Mobile Bank, Boring Road, Patna - 800001) in Patna, Bihar, India. But, till date there is no response from the service centre regarding my phone. I am not a resident of Patna but I have visited the centre many times and to my surprise, I found the centre to be closed. They have also charged me 1500 INR for the repair. How will I get my phone back? Please help.
I have also attached receipt.

I have an emails address which is cool.[protected]@hotmail.com.
I don't really use it since it's a very old email address but I do take a look at all my old stuff time to time.
One day as soon as I logged in all of my emails were gone, disappeared. No inbox, no sent items, no folders, everything lost.
And then when I contacted the tech support for this, one of them took the remote access and then just disconnected and left, the other one told me to wait for 24 hours and the emails will come back magically.
Nothing helped.

Microsoft lumia 640 dual sim purchased vide inv no blr_wfld[protected] date 28.05.2015 rs. 8099/- ;sold by ws retail services pvt ltd. Mei/serial no. [protected]. Ordered through flipkart. Used the mobile till april 2017 in good condition.. On my way to office on 25.04.2017 my mobile was in hand bag slipped from my activa scooter. One car moved above the hand bag and the mobile crushed and it was almost damaged and display is not showing. I am requesting a solution for my issue for the repair of my mobile phone or any other refund

I bought this mobile (Microsoft 950xl) on 27 Feb 2016..but from d beginning itself I have been facing problems.. My experience with this mobile has been really disappointing.. Even second month I was making trips to their service centre at Samvradhi technologies, Bangalore, submitting my mobile there again and again ... to be sent to d backend team for almost 15-30 days everytime for repair. During the period of 1year (27feb 2016-27 feb2017)my phone was submitted at the service centre (approx 7-8 times) for a period of 20-30 days.. Every time they gave me some or the other reason for the problem and phone was given back later telling me dat its motherboard has been replaced, , sometimes d battery has been changed. . But my problems still continued... Sometimes the phone automatically gets switched off, sometimes it gets really heated as if it going to burst, sometimes d screen goes black or green in colour, sometimes a motor like voice used to come from it.. But d problems continued..Microsoft being such a big company is really fooling d customers... After spending almost half a lakh.. Iam still facing the sameproblems.. I actually didn't get to use my phone the whole year... Again iam facing the same problems.. Pls take some action thanx

I purchase on e of the first surface computers that came out and I am having nothing but trouble with the pen. I changed batteries and it does not help. I went to the MS store and their answer was purchase a new one. Why should I have to pay more when they can not ensure that it will work better. I think MS should replace a faulty pen with a new one as this has been a problem from day one. As you will see by the photo that I have changed batteries so many times the button do not line up with the clip

But, till date there is no response from the service centre regarding my phone. I am not a resident of patna but i have visited the centre many times and to my surprise, i found the centre to be closed. On enquiring about this with the neighbours of the service centre, i got to know that it has been closed since more than a month. They have also charged me 1500 inr for the repair. I have also attached the bill that i was provided with for your reference. Now please tell me how will i get my phone and who is going to pay for all the mental and physical harassment that i am facing due to all these.

With an expectation, I have visited Nokia/microsoft service centre of Lenin Sarani, Kolkata to repair my Lumia 535 set's touch screen as it was broken falling from my hand. They have charged 1990 INR to replace the touch pad and have returned back to me. From that day, touch screen was not responding properly. After 2 months, when I was thinking to buy a new handset, again touch screen of my handset has broken. Being quite upset, have gone to a local mobile repairing centre and they have done a miracle job. They have only taken 400 INR from me and gave me my phone with a new touch pad, even sensing problem has been disappeared.
Are the engineers of your service centres really well trained or do they just intentionally to make customers dupe?

I could not get help for a problem with my Surface pro 4 despite trying to reach the concerned department using helpline, direct line, email. I would strongly encourage people not to purchase microsoft products. Other company's customer support is effective from my experience.

I am delighted to inform you that I have managed to dispose my surface pro 4 for 'paper weight's' value, and I am now relieved that I do not have to go through the ordeal of working on the device, or the ordeal of trying to reach technical support helpline. Its disgusting that the INDIA operations of Microsoft is a sham, and there is no remorse, ownership or accountability. Whoever heads it and runs the show lack leadership and should be ashamed! Microsoft India ought to shut down than functioning like this.

1. No body attended to the help line numbers. Just for a brief moment, 2 hours after office opening hours (9AM IST), a poorly trained, arrogant person picked up, but had his head set messed up. The line was inaudible, and the person couldn't be reached subsequently.

2. The microsoft person who responded to my email promised to connect me to the appropriate person, but again none picked up once he tried transferring the call to the Microsoft surface department. He did not bother to call back or get email me again.

3. The Gurgaon office landline was unattended throughout the day.

4. The employees are not following the office hours of 9 am- 6 pm. I wonder if most of the dolts are 'work from home' freelancers, who are misusing their privileges.

I hope some introspection is done to revamp processes and to bring in people with integrity.

Hi
I got xbox one gifted by my brother .
The xbox was working fine for few days and than there was orange and white light blinking in the power brick. I have tried registering online by myself. Tried to register with the help of their helpline 3-4 times, but failed to register it. They always said there is problem with the site and try registering after some time.

I have written several mails and called microsoft office but no one is helping / resolving my problem.

I want that the defective x box one should be replaced immediately.
Me and my son are really upset due to all this.

Purchased lumia 950 in oct 16. Developed problem in the mobile in Dec 16. deposited with delight solutions authorised service centre in secunderabad. Got the mobile back in jan 17. Again the mobile developed problem and given at service centre on 28 jan 17. Till now the mobile has not been repaired. Rep at delight solutions say they have not yet received the mobile from bangalore. This type of after sale service is not at least expected from microsoft. Hope the problem may be solved at the earliest. other wise there is no other option other than approching consumer court

My partner was texting on our Microsoft lumia 640 LTE mobile phone. This phone popped, and with a rather large bang the phone EXPLODED right in his hands. This has caused BURNS TO HIS HANDS, CHEST AND LEGS.. I took him to the hospita, where he received medical attention... I have not been able to speak to anyone about tgis matter, apart from people in technical support who just tell me to contact by email...
I am going to report this to the media and etc to make sure this doesn't re-occur.
If any responses, please contact me by [protected]@gmail.com.
