Samsung India Complaints & Reviews

I have purchased Samsung Mobile in 25th January 2010. The company (Samsung) claims that they will provide us replace warranty (If company will not able to solve the problem within seven days). After two month o[censored]sing this phone I got a problem related to USB and other minor / major problems. I went to service centre (Barrackpore Samsung Mobile Service Centre, Near – 15 No. Rail Gate, Lalkothi, Barrackpore, Kolkata, West Bengal) and told them my problem. They asked a Xerox copy of bill and given. After that day they called me after seven day. I went then they again call me after seven days. I went again then they again called me after seven days. Thus they have killed my 20 valuable days.

Finally, I contact directly to Samsung Company near about 10 days before, after calling there they (Samsung Mobile Executive) asked me my details till 15 minutes and they told that your problem would be solved. Even they give me Barrackpore Samsung Mobile Service Center’s Franchisee holder named “S Chatterjee ([protected])”. Yet they are neither able to solve my problem nor responding in proper manner. I don’t know whether they are playing with me or providing me the appropriate service.

I have recently bought an split ac from samsung. From the first day i was not kind of impressed with the product as it took some time to cool a very small room for its capacity 1.5 ltr. I initially thought, may be due to the weather then in bangalore, yes it was really hot!!!, its taking some time to cool. The days progressed, the weather got better but even then it is taking some time to cool and it drips a lot of water from the outdoor unit. I was kind of bothered and i have called up their cusomer care, this happened on april 13. They were nice and they told me that they will send an expert. One/two day (S) i received a call from their service guy asking for visit to my place, i asked him to visit my place after 6.00 pm, he said we would call me and visit after 6.00pm. But today being may 4, till now no one have visited my place yet in spite of my repeated calls to their customer care and their fake response of sending a guy or calling me back and loads of other. I know there should so many of people you have had a same experience as me. I would like make this a online petition. Please post your comments.

This is truly my experience with samsung customer care.in one word, it is very pathetic.

Hi ,

I have brought a new Samsung AC from Satya Agencies Medavakkam by Oct 2009. By the start of April 2010 i started facing problem with my AC and my complaint was registered after repeated calls on 20th April. And after a week Samsung service people inspected and informed me the compressor has gone fault and need to replace it. As this happened during the warranty period they promised me to replace it at free of cost. Even after one week they didnt even call me when they will be replacing it. After calling the customer care they promised service team people will call and inform when they will be replacing but havent received any calls from them so far. And after losing my patience made call to the customer service team on a daily basis and today they have given the service team manager number. And after long wait on call he started speaking as if i was disturbing their customer care team making calls everyday and that doesnt makes any difference. And now he says they dont have compressor to replace it and hence need to wait for some more time. Could some one please help me to deal with these people.

Really a disgusting customer care from samsung.

I had a problem with my Samsung E1410 mobile phone. The battery had some snag which resulted in very low backup as well as problems in receiving and delivering 'sms'es and calls. I reached for a Samsung service center at Bangalore and the service personnel identified that the battery was under a defect and since it falls within my warranty period, they would replace the same. Its been over 2 weeks now and they have still not replaced the battery and on inquiry they tell that no stock has arrived at their store. What baffles me is that, how can they expect someone to manage for 2 weeks without a mobile phone? All my work is in jeopardy and due to their negligence and irresponsibility, i'll have to buy another phone until they deliver the old one to me. This is o[censored]tter shame, Samsung being a world leader in electronic equipment should provide for better customer service and satisfaction. I hope my complaint is taken seriously and make amends for their behavior.

P.S: I have given my phone at a service center in BTM layout, Bangalore.

I logged call 1 month back for servicing of my AC and have sent mail many time but no one came from Samsung. The service is very very bad and i have decided not to buy any other samsung produce. I have sent them many mails but no response. Not sure if senior management is sleeping in the company of what?

This is a real frustrating experience with Samsung products.

This is our 2nd Samsung product and I wow never to buy any more Samsung products in my life and also make others aware.

We have a Semi Automatic Samsung washing machine.
Recently, the Timer knob was not working for 3 mins interval.
So, we called the Samsung call centre and registered for a technician visit. (case no: [protected]).

The technician came and in the process of replacing the knob, broke down the complete front timing system.
He left hastely and now since then, its about 25 days, when we call the Samsung Call Centre, they have only 1 thing to say "The parts are not available now".

My father who is a noted doctor in Goa have been visiting the Service centre in Margao (Goa) but they do not help.
I work for Wipro Technologies, Pune as IT professional and have spoken with Manoj Gupta (Senior person from Samsung Service Centre, Pune) and have called the call centre numerous times.

But, nothing seems to work.

Call Centre executives promise to escalate this and a call back.....again no one gets back.

My sincere appeal to my Customer friends looking forward for a new washing machine, pls do not look forward to any Samsung products.
If we in Wipro can be very sensitive and prompt towards our clients, why can't we get the same service for others?

Two month old Samsung AC- Split purchased from Kohinoor Electronics at Dadar.
Last week, suddenly lost the cooling and thereafter lsot power to it in one day itself.
Registered complaint on April 26th. Since then, their service centre is only equipped to TAKE down complaints and not react to complaint. Mr Vaibhav- Manager-service center is smart enough to AVOID all calls on his cell phone...whereas his staff is i guess smarter than him by not taking orders from him also.
Kohinoor says "not my problem". We requested Samsung to repalce AC which went down in just 2 months o[censored]sage.....they said NO!
So whats next....take a morcha to service center due to incompetancy of Mr Vaibhav to do his job right? No that is not what we educated people do.

Someone needs to take charge of Samsungs After Sales Service....Believe me...no one knows what to do! And we are here with two little kids in sweltering heat of 35 degree in mumbai 80% humiditiy!

Sir / madam,

I bought Samasung Window AC 1 year back from Vijay Sales. It was stated in the offer that initial 3 servicing will be free. Warranty for the AC expired just 7 days back. When we called the service centre compalining the cooling problem. their engineer stated that there is a Gas lickeage problem in the AC and I will be charged 2000 for the same and warranty for that will be only for 3 months.

First of all if within 1 year of purchase of AC if there is a Gas lickeage, then surely I have been given a defective piece. Secondly I understand warranty expired 7 days back - why gas leakage problem was not highlighted when it was serviced during the warranty period. Thirdly what is the guarantee that after expiry of 3 months again there will be no Gas leakeage problem form the 4 th months onwards. For a AC worth 15000, these companies are forcing us for maintanence cost of[protected] a year and making fools of Indian public, we have never faced such problem with indian companies like voltas / godrej

i have lodged a complain to their customer service also (ref no # [protected]), but haven;t got any satisfactory reply as yet


Would request your kind intervention in this case

Its the worst customer care that i have spoken to. I think they need to first get the right people on the job and then train them as well. they do not have managers at all if you ask for one then their managers have either gone for lunch or or they hangup. They hung up on me 8 times as they could not help me and answer my questions. They cannot understand or speak English. they talk rubbish half the time.
some of the names are Neelam, Nandita, supervisor munni.
I have now registered a complaint with the consumer complaints website as well.
i have also attached a copy of the chat discussion with your rep. (another )

(Our web team will be with you soon.)
A member of our web team will be available soon. You are currently in position 1 - thank you for waiting. If your enquiry is concerning a purchased product, please have your product details, including serial number and date of purchase ready.

Dear sir,

we have purchased a double door refrigerator cum freezer model no. SS20WG2/XTL serial no. 71943CX B00057 ON 16/6/2005

Samsung service centre and after sales service is worst and very poor

I have filed a complaint on 2 april'2010 under complaint reg. no. [protected]

that our refrigator is not cooling. an enginner came after a week or so and informed us to change the fan, its motor ans tand which were not working properly which we agreed as per his estimate given by him to us. He told us the parts shall be replaced withi 24 hours but till date no one has turned back. Now when we call cutomer care [protected] or [protected] or lacla nos[protected] / 40209932 no one first of all picks the phone for hours together to reply us and after a long hold for more than hours when someone picks up the phone to attend our complaint they are not known of the problem we are facing and after explaing them they tell us we will verify the porblem at higher authorities and call you back which they have never done and lastly they will tell us we donts have the parts with us which are required to be replaced from last 30 days which they indented from their head office but still not received. when we ask them which parts do we need to replace in our refrigerator they dont about that. When we get angry on them, they will just hang up the phone or will tell us that we shall call you back within 10 mins with your latest status about our problem.

our refrigator is getting bad everyday and they are really not bothered to repair the same.

We cannot offer a glass of cold water in this hot summer to any guest at our house from last one month due to negligence and poor and worst service to Samsung Service Sentre

can some one help me out and ban this samsung so from sellig the appliances for which they cannot provide after sales service or can someone ask them to shut all their service stations and tell all customers that we dont provide any warranty guarantee or after sales service of the worst products made by SAMSUNG......

Dear Samsung India CMD,

We have raised a complain for repair of our fridge almost 2 months ago and nothing has been done for that. Complain number: [protected].

Our fridge stopped working as a cable inside the concealed back wall burnt automatically which is very surprsing as it is stabiizer free product.

Service centre people are saying that they can not repair it and whoe body needs to be changed. I dont understand the reason for changing whole body when there is only a small cable has burnt.

The second option they are giving is to depreciate 44% amount which can not be a solution for this small fault. It is a Samsung product and you must repait the same.

I recently bought the GT S-3653 Samsung Corby handset. I trapped in the mass advertisment of Samsung. This handset has very poor quality of internet browser and user experience. One cannot able to download from Internet GPRS as compared to entry level model of LG or Nokia. I cant able to download a ring tone or anything from the internet on handset even less than 40 KB also cannot be downloaded. I contacted Airtel GPRS service and they told that it is because of the poor quality browser of Corby phones and they have lots of complaints abt this. Internet browsing and downloading experience of 3000 rs Nokia phones also very good as compared to Samsung corby.

I bought a windo AC of one tonn from BIG BAZAR ranchi 1 week back.I was promised that AC would be installed within one or two days by the samsung service centre at ranchi.Even after continous assurance by service centre operator no one had come to install AC till now. On contacting to the service center; every day they tell 'some go tomorrow and install AC'. I dont know how anyone can keep faith on this company. I want to know from company is it possible to return back my AC?
