Samsung India Complaints & Reviews

I had purchased Samsung Mobile handset model No SCH - W299 having IEMI No : [protected] last year in Sept 2009 at Rs 12600/- . Within 5 months its touch screen stopped working and I approached the Airoli service center and according to them there is no guarantee for the touch screen. Since I was able to use it without touch screen I decided to continue to use it. Last week suddenly it stopped working completely . I approached again to Airoli service centre and after reloading the software again it did not work. The service technician asked me to approach another service center at Dream Mall in Bhandup. My handset was kept for one day and then they said that its mother board should be changed and it will cost Rs 5500/- . Now just in 14 months such an expensive mobile handset is dead and there is no guarantee that after spending above amount , how many days it will work properly. It really so sad that such a reputed company is selling substandard products in the market. I had to buy this handset because of my CDMA number from my new company. This hand phone has double sim CDMA + GSM. But it looks like that Samsung has serious problem with many handsets in the market. I doubt that I will get any support from Samsung but its important to let people know that in future one should be very careful when you buy Samsung products. In future I will never buy any Samsung products. My e-mail id is [protected]@yahoo.com and contact no is [protected].

This is regarding my new SAMSUNG mobile handset model No S3600i SL No RUL7490885Y.

I made the unfortunate mistake of buying a Samsung mobile (S3600i) and have found your customer service to be unbelievably bad! Actually, I can't get a prompt response from your people despite repeated calls. If I get response this is also false commitment from Mr. Amar, DIGITAL CONSORTIUM (C.T.S No[protected],Balchandra Villa,Laxmi nagar, Pimpri, Pune 411 033. Ph:[protected]

My handset was having white display issue due to the same I have handed over it to Mr. Amar on 22nd Nov against WON 5991 (attached). I had been told there is issue with display and I will get my mobile back on next day. When contacted on 23rd I was told handset is not ready so again contacted on 24th Nov. I was still told its not ready & finally on 26th Nov they told me part is not available and it will be available on 2nd Dec.

This is the answer I got after four trips to service centre.

Very patiently I took my mobile back & put hand it over back to service centre on 9th Dec. Where Mr Amar told me he knows the issue and I will get my cell repaired on 10th Dec.
According to which I went next day and this is when I was told that my handset is not be repaired under warranty as the display has a water damage issue and I have to pay Rs 275/- for repair.
Now according to Mr.Amar and Mr.Anwar (Service centre head) the water damage issue occurred as we took handset home whereas it was out of question that the cell getting damage at home.

The cell was not even checked on 9th Dec and how on 10th can I get this answer?

I was shocked when he was talking like this. He is the person only promised to repair handset under warranty and not stand by his words and wasted so much of time and money and he finally saying not possible to repair under warranty.
I have never seen such pathetic customer service in my past, I can understand that Mr.Amar is junior and can be irresponsible but Mr.Anwar being centre head also shows the same behaviour.

I AM TOTALLY UNSATISFIED WITH SAMSUNG AND WILL NEVER BUY OR RECOMMEND A SAMSUNG PRODUCT IF YOU ARE NOT RESLOVE THE PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY

Look forward to receive your prompt response

I bought a LCD monitor of the Samsung company with a three year product warranty, but within three month of purchase in the year 2008, it developed a technical snag which after much complaining got attended and the panel was changed but after that patch up it again developed the same error in its much severe form and now the screen goes totally white I once again complained to company with complaint no. [protected], my purchase is registered online with the company site, but even after three month no hearing on the part of company.
kindly do the needful in this case.

dear sir,
i am writing you to assist me in resolving my problem ,i had brought my Samsung mobile (guru 2120)on 24 September 2010 to your service center at BAPUJI NAGAR,BHUBANESWAR .because its mother Bord was failed.but till to day they are not return my phone and said AMIR KHAN will deliver your mobile soon....
so would you please fix my problem.......

Purchased a Samsung 32'' LCD TV LA32A450 model. It is hardly 15 months old and had problems with picture. Samsung service person had a visit and immediately mentioned that the problem is with main board or picture tube. Main board will cost above INR 5000/- and no warranty. And the same with picture tube which cost around INR 18000/-. I felt rediculus to spend close to half a price with no warranties. To have a second opinion I got the TV to a friend of mine who does have good knowledge of LCD Tv's. He also stated that it is problem with main board and cost around INR 5000/-. He has contacted the Samsung Service Center and orderd for a new Main Board. Its been a month and still no sign of spare parts. They got an alternative model Main Board and tried (which should have been compatiable with LA32A450). However, it did not work and he is still waiting for spare part.

Funny thing is, the reason for non availability for spares for this model is "This Model is Outdated". When I Purchased the Dealer said this is the Latest series 4 model.

I lost complete trust in Samsung Company and decided never to buy any product from Samsung and also recommend not to buy any Samsung Products.

Hello I am V N S Meher from Hyderabad. I had recently bought a Samsung SCX-4521 printer from a samsung dealer in hyderabd and after coming home i called samsung tech support for its installation. The technician then confirmed that the printer is faulty and it needs to be replaced and at that time i am assured of a replacement. It passed 3 weeks now and till now i havent got any proper satisfactory response from the concerned authorities. I called the customer care center several times amd all the time i was put on hold which eventually ended without any response. its really pathetic to face such a situation and its annoying that these f..king samsung people are very irresponsible. So i caution my fellow consumers not to go with F..King SAMSUNG products.

Now it is december and nobody is bother to tell me when i can get my money. I have also deposited photocopy of Bill of the product.

Hello sir
I have mobile GT-S5620. My mobile phone was not working so i had given it to Samsung service center(roorkee). They told me that that chip was not working so it will get replaced. But after almost one month they returned my phone without repairing and said that head office of samsung is not providing resources to them. I have mailed my complaint to customer care on 15-10-10. My phone is in warranty. Customer care gave me number of one officer of samsung Mr. yogendra Singh. I had talked to Mr. Yogendra singh Rawat. He told me too again register complain.I had registered my complaint again on 21-10-10.After making so many calls too him, he told me and given me in written that your mobile will get replaced within 15 days on 15- 11- 10. But now he is just giving me excuses "Your mobile phone arrived at Dehradun you will get within 2 days". But still i didn't get phone. When I told him that i will go to consumer court he told me that then you will never get either phone or money back.

Please help me

Hi
I purchased samsung mobile C5212 (IMEA. No [protected]) from SHRI SADGURU KRUPA ENTERPRISES, mulund east, mumbai on 12th august 2010. From the date of purchase, alarm in tasks, calendar and anniversary entries is not working. Even if I save a task and set alarm for it, alarm doesn't ring and at alarm time shows as 'missed alarm'.
I went to you cust care in mulund west (varad electronics) on 5th sept and they changed software. Also they told me don't use memory card (I never understood why?, memory card should be compatible, shouldn't it be, when you have given a memory card slot).
Problem resurfaced again on 20th sept. I kept on using phone without alarm. I again went to same cust service center on 24th oct. Now this person, Sachin if I remember correctly, tells me that I shouldn't change phone profiles, that leads to alarm not ringing. Ridiculous, this guy doesn't know solution to this problem and tells me something irrational. I still asked him to look into it hence he kept phone with him for one day, changed software. But problem reappeared again on very next day.
I have to ask you basic questions -
Are you samsung phones so poorly designed that simple thing like task alarm doesn't work?
What kind of quality of person you have in service centers?
I am sick of chasing this guy.
Can you pls look into the matter and help me?

I purchased a Samsung LCD TV, model no. LA32C450E1MXXS from the CSD, Kochi for Rs 25,977.60/- on 11 Nov 10. The invoice from Samsung to CDS and the cash receipt voucher are placed at enclosure. The LCD TV was purchase under the offer made by Samsung for a free SD DTH STB from Airtel. A copy of the offer made by Samsung is also attached. Accordingly a voucher was given to me at the time of delivery of the TV which had a serial number and an activation code (which had to be scratched out to revel the number). A copy of the voucher is enclosed.
The Aitel customer care center was contacted by me and the serial number of the voucher [protected] was given to them after which I was given a Customer id - [protected]. I was instructed to recharge the customer with Rs 500 by Airtel customer care after which the STB would be setup at my home. I recharged the my customer id online by credit card for an amount of Rs 500/-. The transaction id for which is - 664417. After recharging, I contacted the Airtel customer care and I provided them with the Activation code - [protected]. To my utter surprise and disappointment, I was told by Airtel that this voucher was already used and I had to now pay for the set top box if I wanted a DTH connection. They have also asked me to approach Samsung and get a new voucher and only then will I get my connection. When I contacted the dealer who sold me the TV he expressed his inability to do so.
There are two aspects of this that needs your attention, one - when I first gave Airtel the serial number of the voucher, I was told that the voucher is valid and I will get the connection after recharging, which they are now disputing after I made the payment saying that the voucher is already used. Second - the activation code was scratched out by me and could not have been seen or used by anyone else.
The problem that I am facing could hopefully be a technical glitch and can be sorted out between Airtel and Samsung, otherwise it appears to be a case of misleading the public and actually making us actually pay up for the STB after falsely being told it is free. The last date for the voucher is 15 Dec 10 and I am being pressurised by Airtel to sort out the matter with Samsung by this date.
It is requested that the matter be resolved and I be issued a new voucher with a different activation code or that Airtel activate my account and give me a DTH connetction with the existing code.
I am looking forward to an early and positive settlement of this issue.

I have purchased Frost Free Refrigerator Model RT41LSPN1/XTL of Samsung. This model is failed to prevent moisture in bottom tray. It is proven by local Samsung Authorised Service center. But they are not ready to take back this product from the Market and not giving and solution after many complaint. Finally, they took the photograph and original bill copy and keep quite. My sincere request you to help me out in this. My e-mail id : [protected]@gmail.com
