I bought a 40" Samsung Television for Rs. 57, 000. Just after the warranty got over horizontal lines started coming up on the TV and it became virtually impossible to watch. Samsung said it would need Rs. 22, 000 to fix the TV since there is a "loose connection"! Since the TV was not in warranty I would have to pay.
I was shocked that such a costly TV should go bad in such less time. Just when I was thinking that I was unlucky, I researched on the internet that this is a problem with Samsung TV and many customers are facing the same. The electronics store from where I bought the TV confirmed my doubts. In fact Samsung had a "class action lawsuit" against them sometime back and they had to fix the problem of all customers who faced similar issues. It seems that Samsung's LED technology is not as stable as other brands like Sony, but they are selling half finished products at the same prices.
I tried telling this to Samsung folks including mailing the CEO office, but they said nothing could be done and were horribly insensitive to my concerns.
Now as consumers I think we should not keep quiet and do something together.
1) People in Bangalore who are facing the same problem, let us get together and file a consumer case against Samsung and get them to fix this problem. This is not acceptable, since we are being taken for a ride. Mail me at [protected]@gmail.com if interested.
2) I am planning to make black T-shirts on which it would be written in white. "Samsung LED TVs are crap" and at the back would be written "Ask me before buying, don't waste your money". Then would roam around all electronics showrooms in Bangalore over weekends. Would put same displays on my car window so that everyone in Bangalore traffic can see the same over weekdays while going to office.
@Samsung folks,
I have tried to get in touch with you many times to get this issue fixed, but please note you cannot keeping selling your sub standard LED sets and expect that the consumer would keep quiet. If you feel that customers who pay you money, deserve some attention and respect please contact me.
Regards,

Complaint marked as Resolved
First I purchased the mobile with respect of your brand name of your company. After one and half month of purchasing I faced the problem of charging, hang and network in the same Handset. I know this is the Electronic item and technical problem is genuine in the same. The handset was repaired by your service centre deccan pune. The claim no. i don't have because they take my receipt.
Again in the same month I faced the same problem of in the same handset except charging. On same month I went to your same Service Centre deccan pune to confirm the problem of network that was since the purchasing of Handset. I am very surprised to the behaviour of that service centre employee regarding the same matter. He was not accepting the problem of the handset, so company does not repair the same.
The network problem I faced from day of purchasing times the mobile of your company SAMSUNG. First thing I am facing the same problem since the purchase of Handset so this is the Technical problem and may be production or manufacturing defect of your company which I do not pay at any cost.
In This matter I really felt very negative in against of your company and the behaviour of your service centre Deccan pune.
I will appreciate the urgent action regarding the same complaint to replace of the Handset or do the needful thing as there is production or manufacturing defect in the handset.
Kindly take the action in the same matter and arrange to change my handset
Thanks
