Samsung India Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir / Madam,
I Dharmesh C. Timbadia had purchased Samsung mobile model #W619 on September 25th 2008. This mobile has an official IMEI number #[protected] which is printed on my invoice and is also printed within the mobile handset.

From November 30th 2009, as per government norms, all mobile handsets required an official IMEI number. My mobile, in spite of having the above IMEI number was stopped with the GSM service as there was no IMEI number programmed in it.

I consulted with the Samsung center at Vasai (w) which confirmed me that there is no IMEI number installed in this handset and I was advised to visit the Samsung Service center at Santacruz, Mumbai. I have deposited my said handset on 2nd December ‘2009 to the santacruz service center.
As mentioned earlier in my mails, my issue remains the same even after long waiting of 21 days. Still official IMEI number is not been installed into my mobile handset - W619.

Later I received call from the same service centre saying that since my handset is not under warranty Samsung will charge me for the repairs to Mother Board of handset. But my argument is that my handset was working without any problem and the only problem which I was facing is about IMEI number, which was not installed in it. I have bought my handset via legal Tax Invoice and not from any grey market. According to my knowledge its Samsung’s responsibility to provide me the official IMEI number in it.
I am really disappointed by the services provided from your end. After taking so many follow ups still you have not helped me in solving my IMEI number issue.
Last week I spoke to your area manager Mr. Dheeraj, even he assured me for solving my problem at earliest but again to my surprise none of your executives are giving any clear status of my complaint. Everybody are trying to deliver new excuses on daily basis and are expecting from me to have patience in spite of the trouble which I am facing from last 21 days.

The most surprising part on your end is that you are not at all responding to my mails. My complaint is genuine and even its your duty to provide me an IMEI number as per the statutory law. Still to my notice none of one is taking pains to respond me.

I have booked Samsung Marine (B2100). I have received the material also. but i have not received any gift vouchers. please sent me gift vouchers immediately.

I bought my mobile a month before. I have activated internet on my airtel sim card. There is no problem go downloading but the downloaded applications are stored in the phone memory. But i have installed memory card of 2GB capacity.since i have only 4 mb internal memory. I am not able to download even a song. Is there any remedy for this problem. Can i change my default storage to memory card for internet downloads?please say a remedy....

Sir ,

/This is sundar raj from pattukkottai-tamilnadu-India. I have purchased samsung washing machine Fuzzy logic control 5.8 kgs.Last one month the machine has not been worked due to the board fault. I have made a complaint to M/s. Sampoorna furniture mart at the purchase point. There will be no more responses at all. Please forward this mail to the proper service engineer to attend the issue.

i have baught a samsung mobile phone modle s8003 on 19/07/2009. whoes touch screen stop working and i submit my complaint in GNH TELECOM NOIDA on 10/09/2009 . they told me that its touch screen need to be change and it will take a week to repair. after a week when i went to service center they inform me that they dont have the part and you mobil cost will be refund. and for this you have to talk to our servise area manager Mr. Manav dham he will look after it . since then he is just making excuses only that it will take only a week or so but fom last 3 months he is making fool of me. So please guide me what to do and how to get my money back.

CUSTOMER CARE of Samsung is very very poor.
My fully automatic Washing Machine (model- WA 85 VAN) purchased on Dec'08 started making abnormal noise after a few months. The problem was repeatedly intimated to the dealer, local service centre and finally on line complaint registered BP No-[protected] dt 16.09.09. To my surprise the problem is yet to be attended even after three months of registered complaint. Whenever I contacted over telephone, they are giving me dates only but service engr or material is not being turned up. Can you imagine the condition of SERVICE and so called CUSTOMER CARE of such Internally reputed company?

Condition of online customer care is worse. If you call on sundays/holiays, no one is available to reply. If a call is answered, they will repeatedly confirm your name address phone number and when you talk about the problem the will TRANSFER the call to the SENIOR. He/she will repeat the process of information sharing and finally you will get another date on which service engineer will attend but in actual no one will turn up on the day. You go on calling again and get new dates. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER CARE.

Am really stunned to experience such an insensitive response of high degree from the world No.1 Electronics Manufacturing Company like Samsung. I not only purchased a Television but three more consumer goods an Airconditioner,a refrigerator and a washing machine on 5th of Nov'2009.I paid the required amount out of purchase in Cash at Samsung Plaza Hazratganj Lucknow, this is imperative and important to mention that the goods were purchased to gift my sister on her wedding.Since the purchase the first service visit was not all done for any of the goods in fact in turn I had to call several times and so the same got closed parallelly we started experiencing some green colors appearing on the screen problem after 4-5 days of purchase , several times we had to call up call centre , samsung plaza, get into the operational issues theTV was repaired but the problem kept persisting despite several repairs.Finally the Sr.Eng visit was conducted and it was evident that the replacement has to be done now if Samsung does not have the model for replacement then why should I be compelled to upgrade and pay an extra amount of Rs.500 for the same . Is this the customers pain area or concern ? What if customer is not willing to pay due to some reasonable reason ? Is this my fault that I purchased all required goods of Samsung Only' trusting the Brand and its good image ??
It is almost 40 Days that I am following consistently from one end with Samsung Plaza people Mr.Jafri , J K Wahal , Nitin Wahal and above all Service People of Samsung Mr.Dheeraj and the Branch Head Rajiv Mittal very arrogant and insensitive on the customer front They all were ready to replace after a long follow up rather upgrade the model and charge Rs.500 for which am not ready as mentioned above despite my re-itteration no body bothered to arrange for the same model and try n put into efforts .

This is really heartening and now am ready to fight by tooth and nail and if no positive response is received within next three working days on replacement of my TV same model free of cost I would move to media and Consumer Forum .

Warm Regards

i had bought new Samsung mobile SGH-F480. within six month from the date of purchase its touch screen stops working properly. when i go to samsung service station Bhubaneswar. they denied to replace it and require ATLEAST 3 MONTH to repaire it. So if i buy product and it does not funtioning properly and i have to put it for atleast 3 month for repair then SAMSUNG should not lunch such dilapidated product. there is no right to cheat the consumers.

i lost my mobile when iam in the train journey . so,kindly block my sim as son as possible .my no is [protected]

I had purchased Samsung Aircondition on 16th April, I had to call up ample of times to remind them for the servicing, post servicing my touch pad stopped working for which i a writing mails since months but of no response. Please find attached my followups and bill copy.

Hi,

I bought a Samsung Microwave Grill, from Geylord electronics, Paltan Bazar, Dehra Dun on 2nd December, 2009. I was promised I'll be given microwave utensils (starter Kit) in a couple of days. But till now I have not got it. Even repeated calls to customer care for installation has fallen in deaf ears. Worst customer care response I have seen. And without the microwave safe utensils , what does Samsung expect me to do with my microwave.

If anyone is listening in Samsung please contact me.
