Samsung India Complaints & Reviews

I was a die-hard user of samsung products since fifteen years and all the products in my house like tv, microwave, refrigerator, mobile etc are from samsung. Based on this trust i bought a samsung led on 03.04.2018 by paying an amount of rs. 87000. After three months only the tv suddenly went off while viewing. I contacted samsung for the same and asked for a product replacement since i was not convinced about the quality of the led set which i purchased as it could not stand the test of even 1 year warranty, which in the present scenario of global competition is unimaginable. I was offered on-site repair which i refused and requested them once again to replace the set with a brand new one. To my utter disbelief the company is not ready to replace it. If the company is so confident about it's product quality then it should not have any inhibitions in replacing it. However inspite of numerous requests the company is adamant and is not ready to replace the set. Hence i was forced to approach the national consumer forum and i hope that my problem is resolved at the earliest. Thank you samsung for breaking my trust in you brand and keeping the customer's interest at rock bottom.

I have 15 months old samsung refrigerator. More than inr 60, 000.

It stopped working on 13th july and after that i have been trying to get it repaired with samsung india. I have ben told that its compressor needs to be replaced.

The service staff has no clue when the compressor will be replaced. I call up their call center and they have no answer. Nobody picks up the phone and my emails are not getting answered. Online chat is equally pathetic.

It has been a pathetic experience with samsung and i am considering a legal action against samsung india.

Not sure what is the best way forward for me in this sweltering heat.

Thanks,
Yogesh

Worst company. I[censored] are not able to satisfy the cistomer then why you ate making these worst products. Not value fof money. Visited service centre 15 to 20 tomes but in your record it is only 3 to 4 times what the hell is this worst service centre hcl services limited balaji tower near yak petrol pump 55 rajpur road. Engineers are not upto the level of samsung. Opposite service center there is garg telecom u can take any original display of samsung from there because there is game is of money engineers sells original folder to the shop. Service centre is money minded no checking of engineers while entry and exit from the service centre. Long waitung time i want yhe complete replacement of handset as it is becoming repeat repair case of the product.

I have given samsung j7 next model phone to samsung service center on 22 june 2018 for repair which was purchased in theonth of september 2017 and in the warranty period. But even after lapse of 34 days my move was not got repaired nor handed over to me. Which is a great inconvenience to me. As well as i contacted service center several times but i am not received proper response.
So i am herewith bring to your notice to kindly to look in to the matter in finding the solution

Sir,

I was convinced with a lucrative offer on Samsung E-store site (shop.samsung.com), where they were offering a discount towards Samsung Gear S3 Frontier Smart Watch and procured it online from shop.samsung.com, on 17.07.2018. I procured it using my SCB credit card on EMI option available at shop.samsung.com at an amount totaling to Rs 19990. The delivery period indicated during procurement of the product was 2-4 business days. When I saw no change in the order status the following day, I contacted their E-store support at[protected] ref to my order ID[protected], I was thereby appraised that my order will get delivered on 20.07.2018. To my surprise, I still saw no change on the order status on 19.07.2018, when I called their afore mentioned support number again, I was told there must be some issue as the dispatch has not taken place and hence their support team will raise an internal concern. Subsequently even after repeated followups, on 20.07.2018, I was appraised by their support system that I will obtain an update assuring 6.30 PM the same day and I must call them up again to get the update. In the meanwhile, while I was trying to find out an escalation point on Internet, my worries doubled and I envisaged that the merchandise is going to make me suffer with similar problems which were reported on the site. Since I procured the product on EMI from using my Standard Chartered credit card, I called up the bank to find a way if I could stop the payment or dispute the matter, I was appraised by the bank that the transaction is already committed on the same day moreover they have received no information about the EMI convert from the merchandise. When I called up Samsung support again on the same day at 6.30PM, I was told that the product is out of stock and they will let me know when it arrives at their warehouse, further they cannot let me know when the stock will be available. Further, when I asked their support system about cancellation of the product, they mentioned that cancellation will take at-least 10 days to initiate and they cannot provide me any committed timeline for the same, apparently this means that I have to wait for indefinite timeline and keep paying EMI to my bank without a feasible choice. I also mentioned my problem at samsung web site contact requesting a point of escalation and they too put me back to the same support system again. However, after my subsequent repeated followup's, on 24rd July 2018, I was notified by Samsung etore via email that my product has been dispatched by their warehouse with an Airbill no [protected] . When I tracked the number on Blue dart, the Blue Dart tracker system stated that the number is invalid. I wrote about it to their support system again at support.[protected]@samsung.com but got no reply. Every time I write them an email, I get an automated response stating 24-48 hrs time to revert and then the revert takes place with incorrect and misleading information and they puts the customer in loop. I also received a reply from their website where I dropped the complain, the email from [protected]@contactus.samsung.com advised me that my matter is being dealt on priority and refereed to get in touch with the same support system again. They also advised me not to treat this exception with a yardstick to arrive at a negative impression about their services as they are always committed to their customer. I am quite sure by now that the Samsung support E-store is playing time buying techniques with me and as a result of this I am facing immense inconvenience. On their web site portal they have also stated that any change in shipping address could be committed 1 hour post placement of order, by mistake I did mention my mobile no incorrectly and tried multiple times to rectify it on their shopping portal without any success. On 20.07.2018, I subsequently requested their support team on phone and appraised them about the correct numbers, they said that they will inform their back end team and will get the same rectified. However, even after repeated followups with their support team on this particular contact number change issue, they did not pay any heed to do so, I can find that incorrect number against my order status still now. I am afraid that this time Samsung E-store support will again make an excuse and state delivery failure making an excuse out of this.
I have email references for all the communication made with their support desk so far and also have evidence on the conversation with their support desk on 20.07.2018 where their support team stated that they cannot provide me any timeline to the availability of the product, please let me know any further details you may require in order to kindly pursue & help me resolve my problem statement.

Yours Sincerely,

My earlier complaint dated 21st july #pathetic quality pathetic service.. Refrigerator which is exactly 18 months old, gas has been filled 3 times now in last 6 months finally on pushing why problem is happening visiting service person said gas is leaking. One service person came and connected a type of analyser and concluded that some rods are not cooling and it's gas leakage.. I was not convinced on the answer "some rods r not cooling" anyways still had warranty on gas filled few months back and service engg after not able to find the leakage point gas was filled. Within a month of this gas filling again no cooling issue was raised. Engg came and said he need to fill in pressure and disconnect refrigerator for 3-4 days to identify exactly the leakage issue. We shifted from home to a relative place.. After 4 days the pressure on the meter remained same.. Ends said that gas leakage is not there.. So he spoke to his office and it seems they concluded change compressor and valve.. On asking what is the relationship with gas leakage and valve answer was no convincing? I asked the same question to his senior no answer? Just as they can't identify the problem change compressor and valve.. As compressor is under warranty valve customer will pay.. Let us do this. It's 7th day without fridge in summer of delhi.. We cannot live at home.. It's eating out everything has been disrupted. Samsung doesn't understand this today 21st july samsung service centre says they have ordered from samsung compressor and it may come and may be will change today or else on 23rd monday that would be 9th day without fridge.. And the biggest thing after going thru all this pain one doesn't know if same thing will happen after a month again.. As samsung engg has no answer on linkage of gas leak with compressor and valve... # pain# agony# loss of peace # loss of time # loss of child education and classes.. Vinod kaul email [protected]@hotmail com
Status today : 24th july 2018: compressor was changed, valve was changed.. On saturday later evening... Sunday status cooling issues, water formation on the shelves of main body. Ice compartment a bottle pf plastic water takes 18 hours to become ice... Atleast... That too if the refrigerator is kept door closed for long.. Actually.. As complained i couldnt get the rca why compressor was changed as gas leakage was not there.. There is no root cause analysis given yet which was asked.. While the customer continues to suffer someone from ceo office called up and said that someone will call me.. Till now no call..

I bought my new samsung mobile on 10th june 2018. (Sm-g570fzkgins)
The mobile started probleming battery dysfunction and sudden power shutdowns from the first day on wards. On 15th june i visited the specified service center stated the problem, the customer service engineer didn’t do anything and asked me to update software in spite telling that there are issues with the hardware. Asked me to go back and update software. Even a layman like me do some google around and figure out the problem. They didn’t even check that purposefully.
The problem didn’t resolve and i’ was not even able to use it. Problem is increasing and mobile display is stopped working. On 4th july i went again to that service center and stated the problem. Unfortunately this time i was treated the same way and told that there is some issue with phone motherboard. Asked me to raise a request for motherboard replacement and come back after a week or two. I went after a week to the same place and nothing helped. This time they were telling display issue. Submitted my mobile device and come back.
As things were not clear to me i reached to the samsung support to escalate the case. And unfortunately no good response from customer service executive even the floor managers. Instead of giving me the new device they were forcing me to take the problematic device and telling me that they have already fixed it. I was asked to take the old device from the service center.
As there were no option left for me, i have taken my device, this saturday 21 july 2018. The problem is there. The problem started again in couple of hrs. And it is out o[censored]se only.
I'm raising the complaint here, i’m feeling that i’m cheated badly. And there are no exception as others like fulling customers from the beginning. I need my money back.
Below the request number already raised. (Reference no : [protected])
Uploaded videos and mail references.

Below the mail reference

Hi mr. Clament,
It is very unfortunate that in spite knowing the fact that the mobile is problematic from the beginning you are not giving me the replacement. Even on visit on time to the service center doesn’t help anywhere. As i’m in need of my mobile, can you confirm when i can collect my mobile from your service center?
Also what can i do if all the problems are not corrected?
For the extension of warranty, what is the procedure do proceed with. How the paperwork’s will be done?
Expecting a response from your end.
Thx,
Sunirmal

My name is s. Premaja, worked as a samsung promoter in the period of 2009 to 2012. Already submitted pf form along with the relevant documents to superwell services on 2014. Please process my pf form and do the needful.

Kindly update for the above mentioned issues, my employment code is tu0183, am waiting for your favourable reply. Kindly do the needful.

I have damaged my refrigerator on 14/07/18 which was under warranty, but unfortunately i have gone through a lot of stress regarding the same. Neither the sam-sung customer care people are knowledgeable enough to help me neither the service center people. Its impossible to describe all the scenarios in this complaint area, and i am not sure where to complain and how will i get any assistance for the same.

The only answer that we get from any where is just "sorry, we are looking into the same". This is very pathetic service that a customer is getting and i am writing the same for some real help which i am not sure from where i will get.

Waiting for some sort of response.

To whom it may concern

I would like inform in your kind attention that i holding samsung s7 edge and also a regular customer for all the samsung products for more than 15 years. I had a very bad experience occurred from a samsung service centre in coimbatore (Gandhipuram).
I gave my phone to replace the led screen and they made to visit five times and did irresponsible service with me. These kind occurrences may create a bad impact for the company. Please take an appropriate action to avoid these.
Your earliest reply and action will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi team,

On july 18th, 2018 i purchased a screen guard of samsung galaxy note 8 from one of the samsung store in jaipur. The area it is located in is malvia nagar in world trade park.

Now today is 23rd july, 2018 and its already coming off from the edges. When i contacted same store about this problem today the lady told me that they cant do anything and i have to get a new one now.

In her defence she said that after installing a buff guard you have to take care of your device, which was not told to me at the time of installation of the buff guard.

Now that i have paid 900 inr this is very disappointing that the buff guard didnt even lasted a week. By the way the name of the company of which the product i got installed is trims and no package or leaflet of 5he product was given to me at checkout so that i can get familier with the instructions o[censored]se.

I would like to get a replacement for the product as both the customer service and the product proved to be unsatisfactory.

Let me know if images are required as proof.

You may contack me at [protected] or [protected] to discuss the whole scenario in detail.

I have the bill for the same if needed.

Thank you

I purchased samsung note 8 @ rs 55990/- from vijay electronics samsung plaza in velachery, chennai, tamilnadu. It was a defective piece where the proximity and auto rotation sensors were not working. My complaint was accepted by samsung service centre valuarkottam, chennai. They packed the defective piece which i presented to vijay electronics who gave me a replacement. But on closer observation at home i found that there was double sticker one above the other which as if the seal was broken and the second seal was put to hide the same. The accessories all had vietnam in the earlier returned piece while the replacement had china stamp on the charger. Both the charger and mobile heat up while charging. I strongly feel that i have been handed a refurbished piece instead of fresh piece and i feel i have been cheated by vijay electronics. I request that samsung takes a serious view of the same and does justice and replaces my mobile set and accessories with original samsung product.

I have launched a complaint for washing machine service on 16th jul. But till date no one has turned up yet.
I have recieved a service engineer contact but all i get is the fake visit time stating he will visit at 10 am, 2pm 6 pm and then no answer. Please note that my time is as important as yours and dont waste our time by making us wait and that too with out any use.
The height of this issue is the engineer stating that he is busy and that there are too many complaint launched and he is too busy to adress my issue.

Very bad and very frustrated. Should have opted for a brand that provides better customer service.

Dear Team,
I have baught samsung J6 from samsung gallery in mahim on 19th june 2018.
Unfortunately within 18 days i had issue with network and battery charging. So i went to samsung gallary in fort because of my work location is in town . they said since it is 15days old we cant replace your phone . but we will replace whole hardware since its defected piece but uper body will remain same. Also they asked me to collect the phone in 3 working days which they failed to deliver. After long chase they gave my phone today with hardly 1% battery backup . Since i was in working hours i had to rush to the office again . after charging i found that there is display issue in my phone which was not there before . So now i seriouslly want some explaination from samsung guys is your technicians are amature or they are making fools to people . if my whole hardware is replaced then why the hell my display not working properly . i realised something was still wrong in the phone because executive while giving my phone over the counter she was stuck in something before pre checks of the phone . and after taking the phone i couldnt check the phone because of the battery backup . I want my phone to be replaced asap. i dont have time to run after you people.
seriouslly disappointed with the services as well as with the products quality.
This will also go nasty in social sites if you people didnt responded in you TAT.
