Samsung India Complaints & Reviews

My 50" plasma is not working from 21st June 2010 and complaint @ Customer care was lodged on 22/6/2010. Nothing has been done so far with regards to the complaint. Samsung's Chandigarh service center is not helping me getting my plasma repaired/replaced. I have been following the service center and their manager Mr. Amarjit Rainu ([protected]) from last 25 days but with no use. The service is so pathetic (even this word seems to be very tiny) that i just cannot write in the public media (but they deserve that only). Even after sending mails at official web portal and at support.[protected]@samsung.com, nothing has happened.

If any person can help me in this regard, kindly help.

I made a complain (Ref [protected]) on June 15, 2010. The service engineers visited my residence and told me the parts required for TV repair were not available and they will have to request parts from the HO. After that they visted once more and told me to produce the purchase receipt for a TV that was bought around December 2005 for about Rs 67000/- which I have not cared to save given that the warranty is long past.
Since then I have called up their call centre repeatedly and spoken to Kiran ( a very rude servce manager) and Thyanu requesting for names of their senior customer service personnel to allow me to talk to them. I have been refused names of any senior person and they keep telling me to call their call centre which is a non starter to begin with.
Is it too much for a consumer to expect paid service for a product that cost Rs 67000/- and has failed within less than 5 years?
Appreciate your response. Bina Trivedi

I have purchased a touch screen mobile phone samsung start (GTS5233W), however the touch screen has stopped working within 6 months of purchase.
I contacted the Samsung Service Center and they cant guide the customers correctly.When I visited the Samsung service center , they are unable to fix it as they dont have available parts for the same.
Its been 3 weeks , i am unable to use the phone and the samsung service centers are just pathetic.

Samsung's service is the worst.

I had purchased one slider mobile set model No: F270 on[protected] from dealer "Walky Talky" in Kalimati Road, Sakchi, Jamshedpur.
Soon after purchase it started malfuctioning and system was hanging, speaker malfunctioning and set getting off itself.
Set was taken to local service centre and problem was explained. They attended the problem and even then set did not work satisfactorily.Three times set was taken to service centre and problem could not be rectified. Set is still in the service centre.

I bought a Samsung Mobile Omnia Pro-II Model: GT B_7610. On its sale this mobile in its pack is though supplied with OS WM 6.1 but as per its specifications OS of the mobile is upgradable to WM 6.5. I have called the helpline of the manufacturer more than 3 dozen times as well as posted my request and complaint on their website several times but to no avail. As for the complaints on web the host does not give any log no of the complaint and there is no way to track ones complaint on the website of the host company. I feel like taking this matter to consumer forum against the company. Can this forum help in the matter.

I have lost my mobile SAMSUNG Metro 3310. but i had not switch on my mobile tracker. but I hv my IMEI no . so how can i get back my mobile ? will u help me? plz contact me on this mail [protected]@gmail.com.

1) Since we had decided to buy a Microwave as we had invited Guest on Sunday and had made all arrangements for giving them a treat with Microwave cooked food we bought the microwave on Saturday itself i.e. on 03/07/2010 as Anandamela Salesman told us that if we pay by Cash the product will be delivered the next day and the demo will also be given the same day of the product delivery but if we pay by Cheque the same process will take place at least 3 days for the chqeue to be cleared and the microwave will be only delivered thereafter.

2) To our disappointment the Microwave oven was not only delivered very late on Sunday but neither the demo could take place as promised by Anandamela inspite of many phone calls to them.

3) When we called up Anandamela to know the reason why they did not send the technician as they promised , they denied the fact that they had committed that the technician will give us the demo the very next day. We even clarified the position from them that next Monday being a Bundh could it be possible for the Demo on Sunday itself. Only upon their assurance that I purchased the Microwave paying by Cash- or else I would have preferred to pay by cheque and the product would have reached me on Tuesday or so and the demo would have followed on Wednesday.

4) What surprised me was that the Anandamela people who delivered the Microwave oven to my residence were in a hurry to leave as soon as they dumped the product in my house. Never gave me a chance to open the box and check what it contained. When I asked those people that want you open the box and show me whether you have delivered what I purchased they said the person who will come for demo will do the needful.

I felt quite suspicious about the delivery man’s behavior so I was compelled to open the Box to find out whether the Item delivered was exactly what I had ordered. To my dismay I was shocked to notice the following:-

1) The door of the Microwave oven was broken.
2) There was no glass plate inside the box.
3) No guarantee/warrantee card inside the box.

We tried calling Anandamela but there was no response from them.

5) In between I had fallen very ill and was on strong antibiotic for viral fever . So I could not take up the matter.
You being an organization of repute I sincerely hope that I would be benevolent enough to treat a customer graceful and arrange to replace the Microwave oven soon.

Thanking you,

Yours sincerely,

Dear Sir,

We bought a Sansung Refrigerator in 2005. While under warranty we reported to them that the refrigerator gets too hot on the sides (their claim is that it gets warm and there is a difference between warm & hot). Their service guy (Kiran Rana) without checking told us it is not a problem. Then we reported a problem with freezer door. Even after paying service charge, Kiran Rana told us we should go to the store, buy a new one and put it on ourselves. After that on 21/7/2010 we reported that there was smell of gas and some kind of burning smell from the refrigerator. We also told them not to send Kiran Rana. Still they sent Kiran Rana who refused to accept that there was gas smell or burning smell because we believe that this is part of the original problem reported under warranty and they didn't want to replace it under warranty.

We therefore request that the full price that we paid for the refrigerator (Rs 9500) MUST be refunded and be compensated for deliberate bad service and inconvenience leading to unnecessary stress. We believe such punishment will only prevent such unethical practices in future.

Sincerely,

Sanjeev

I bought this mobile 2 months back and all of a sudden I found that I am unable to access the messages.

Dear Samsung,

I have purchased a Samsung refrigerator Model: (RT24M 0577) RT24BDMA1/ XTL (model number not reflecting in your present series) by one of your reputed authorised dealer at Mayur Vihar i.e., Neha Electronics on 23.06.2010. The said refrigerator was delivered at my residence on 24.06.2010 and started its operation as per your instructions manual and as per the advice of dealer’s executive. Unfortunately, since the day of purchase the said refrigerator is giving improper cooling and discharge huge amount of water which get scatter on the floor. For this malfunction I have several times lodged complaint at your customer complaint number – 30308282 but unfortunately at every occasion your on-line technical support executives instead of visiting in-person for inspection start giving instructions to resolve the complaint on phone which causes huge mental agony and harassment. I have purchased this product because of your company reputation in consumer goods and after sales service. I also spoke to your authorised dealer about the same malfunction and he confirmed that the product has manufacturing defect and adviced to approach the company for replacement since he can’t address my grievance. Since the model number (printed on refrigerator) is not reflecting in your list of current series I fear that your authorised dealer has sold me old model.

It is submitted that I am suffering hardships since the day of purchase of refrigerator as the same is working abnormally and having serious manufacturing defects and further you have completely failed to address the manufacturing defects in your product. Therefore, you are requested to either replace the said defective refrigerator with any other present model or refund the present price of the refrigerator immediately.

I had bought a samsung mobile on B3410 on 13/01/2010. The phone used to get switched off on it's own.
Then i visited the samsung service center BIR ELECTRONICS, G.S ROAD, CHRISTIANBASTI, GHY-5.
The representative over there said that it would take two days for repairing the mobile.
After two days i went there and collected my mobile. After using my mobile for two hours, the problem continues.
when i went back again to the service centre the service representative name ARIF was quite arrogant in talking with me...
He didn't have any manners to talk.. Then when i asked when is my mobile going to be repaired, he was quite rude towards me. i can never tolerate this kind o[censored]ncivilised behaviour of a customer care person.
I want my mobile to be repaired as soon as possible and i want that some actions should be taken against the customer support representative as i earlier mentioned

Thanking you,

I bought a corby pro mobile (B5310) IMEI no. : [protected] from Samsung plaza at sector 18 noida on 5th April’2010. But after 2 months suddenly the mobile stopped working. I gave my mobile on 21st June’2010 for repair at GNH Telecom ltd, sector-27, Noida ( Samsung authorized Service centre).

Initially they were not able to detect the fault and asked me to enquire after 2-3 days. When I enquired about my phone they said its motherboard is not functioning properly and need to be replaced and will take 2-3 days for replacement. But then after 3 days they asked for 1 week more and then again and again they are extending the time and ignoring my calls.

This is not it, whenever I try to call the service centre, the phone is switched off( Phone Number: [protected]/08). Only from 1:40 to 2:15 the phone rings and even then they don’t lift it of just rejects the call and whenever they lift the phone they say it will take 4 more days to repair your phone as the service centre main office is not supplying the motherboard for your phone). I tried to call their head Mr. Shobhit( Mobile number: [protected]) but he never lifts the phone. I have searched all the contact numbers available on internet for GNH telecom Noida and tried calling each and every number but they never attend my call.

I called the Samsung service centre noida head office on 32328080 and talked to many people many times they called back too but they were not able to solve my problem. They gave me Mr. Sandeep’s number ([protected]) I called Mr.Sandeep he talked to me once and asked me to message him my phone details; I did that immediately but no action was taken. Now I call him again many times and even he is not lifting my phone.

This is really shameful. Then I am really disappointed with SAMSUNG products and services. And I will never buy a SAMSUNG Product.

I am really fed up now its more than a month my phone is not working or your Service centre people are using my phone and not returning it to me.

I purchased latest Samsung corby pro.On the first day of purchase the battery dried out in just one hour. I thought it may be not charged fully but again on the second day the battery dried out in just 2 hrs and even during call the mobile got heated up like anything. I have make a call to customer care and explain the problem they give the address of Customer service center. When i reached there i was surprised that the service center timing is 9 to 6, monday to saturday. So in the office hrs. So it was very difficult to me to take out time and submit the mobile. Finally after 20 days of purchase on a Saturday i have managed the time to go to samsung service center. SIm solutions in Rohini sector 8. At very first sight i am surprised to see the cervice center of samsung. It is just like a Sabzi mandi. The executive lounge is airconditioned but the customer lounge having two fans, 40~50 people are sitting there and waiting for there turn. I have reached there at 11:30 am and waiting for my turn.They have given me a token no 30. and current token is 15. Atfter 1 hr of wait still the token no 15 is in progress. when i go to receptionist and ask how much time it takes. Then she shouted at me and angrily said" it may take another 2 hrs and more they cant tell me exact timings i have to wait. So this is Samsung Customer service. But because i have done a mistake my purchasing samsung mobile i have to wait. So finally 3 hrs of wait its my turn. The executive said there is a problem in mother board and it will take 25 days. I was again surprised. When i ask them that what will i do for 25 days give me some alternative mobile then they refused to do do. They said if you have proble you can fmreely talk to customer care or go to Nehru place. After so much of waiting i do not have the energy to go to Nehru place. I understand they are fearless and way they are talking to customers and rediculas.
Then asked to replace my mobile because the problem is from the first day but i am able to come to service centre after 20 days. but the samsung policy is 7 days. So i have given the mobile and god knows when it can be repaired.
While coming i told the manager their that this is not the kind of service a customer s expecting from you we have spent the money thats why we are shouting. The answer from the manager, "Medical ja kar dekho (AIMS hospital) hazaro log neeche bagair pankhe ke pade rehte hai aap 2 ghante garmi mein nahi khade ho sakte".
It was enough for me, i understood that there is no gain in complaining about the poor service,
The same experienced i felt with the every person in the service center and i can said with very much confidence that nobody present in that room will purchase the Samsung product again.
After all this drama i came back home. but still i am very much upset with the services i got. What was my fault ? i have spent 10000 rupees, I have right to complaint, Then i have call to customer care and take the no of Are manager, Mr, Mukesh - [protected]. I am trying to talk to him from last 3 hrs but no response.
Its enough for me.
At last i am writing this mail but i am not much confident that i could get some response.
