Samsung India Complaints & Reviews

Sir

this is my 2nd complaint against Samsung Window AC. THIS SILVER NANO AC has worked till warranty period. thereafter on the advice of Samsung company, we gave our AMC with AC Zone for one year. they came and attended only after our calls that the regular maintenance is due for. During third service onwards digital panel malfunctioning and every time they came and attending by changing the cable and 20 days only worked. Now, only Fan is working. on enquiry, they said due to low voltage, condenser not started. Actually, our house is a 3 phase connection and AC 1.5 KVA is working in the upstatirs. Despite repeated reminders, AC Zone failed to restore the AC. Hence, I request you to depute your engineer to set right the fault in digital panel where I suspect due to malfunctioning and refer an alternate good company for AMC service to our house. Last complaint, one man simply called and enquired and closed the case. I hope this time such things will never happen and depute your engineer immediately and advise us for AMC who will response immediately. Hope Samsung will take care of its unit properly to avoid any untoward accidents like happened at Chitlapakkam recently.

I have been having problems with my Samsung A/c on a regular basis after one year of purchase period was over. In last 12 months i have given complaints almost every month with new issues! I have almost spen[protected] on A/c Repairs in last 12 months. which is almost a third of New A/c Cost. In addition everytime there is a complaint made, false promises are made by customer care executives of samsung and most importantly service centre personnel. They inform of dates on which they'll arrive, and never come on that date. Since i am a bachelor i end up putting leaves which result in monetory loss in long term due to reduction in leaves. And after that these personnel don't come to repair.

Last few times when they didn't attend a threat of legal action made the issue more tolerable. This time even mentioning ten fifteen times that if complaint is not attended properly i'll pursue a legal case against samsung no proper action has ben taken.

Again this time i put a leave and even after being informed of the issue with A/c The repir personnel didn't know what was the issue with A/c so he simply cam and left. i was promised a service next day but even then no service was provided. learning from last experiences thsi time i have recored all my conversation with Service centre supervisor and call centre executives and which are substantial enough to prove the negligence on part of Samsung.

Hence i would like proper autorities to take a proper action against samsung so that people like me don't have to undergo such a mental trauma, which also results in finacial losses! kindly request you to help me with above issue so that These people realise that playing around with common man is not an issue which autorities will neglect. I am ready to attend all necessary hearings with available proof with me and past bills to show poor quality of service and fake promises and lies.

Thanks and regards

I gave my Samsung MAX-VB550G Mini Audio System for servicing on[protected]. The system was out of warranty and was given at the following Samsung authorized service centre:

PRO ACTIVE SERVICE
13/149, Saraswathi,
Opp. Congress Bhavan
Kollam, Kerala -695 001

Its been almost 19 months now and I have still not yet received my product back from them. I have visited the centre almost 15 times regarding the same and everytime they have a new excuse, either the spare part is missing or they are waiting for some approval from Chennai office. This is highly ridiculous and poor service from Samsung. Finally they started giving me offers like pay more and get a different system which I;m not going to do. I want my system back and I will pay the service charges. Its been almost 2 years now, I want Samsung to get back to me for this. I have sent e-mail to Samsung customer care and all I get is a automated reply from them. This is my last last resort and I hope consumer forum will help me out.

Thank and regards

Dear Sir,
This is Pritam from hyderabad.I have purchased one samsung mobile(Model-SGH J210) from Bigbazaar(Abids unit) on september, 2008.The mobile is having 1 yr. warranty.Last february, suddenly it stops working.I was in kolkata during that time.Then i contacted a local(kolkata) samsung authorised service centre to rectify the problem.I was shown some red spot and was told that this red spots nothing but water.Then they took 250 rs.as advance service charge and i was told to come after three days to take back that same mobile in working condition.Then i went to that service centre atleast 20 times to get that mobile till today.Today they handed over my mobile to me and informed me that it is not possible to rectify the problem.When i asked them to write the same in a paper, they simply turned down my request and didnt write anything.I have spent almost 1500 rs. to follow the mobile issue and offcourse i have spent a huge time behind this mobile.Please help me to get proper judgement.

We have bought a/c, microwave, TV & washing m/s from Teji enterprises samsung outlet @ Sakchi, Jamshedpur on 16th april'09. Service center experience is like a nightmare. Guess best help Samsung can provide is honestly telling its customer they do not provide any service for amc/installation. Service centers are manned by goons, mafias cannot put into words lang used by people answering call. Do not expect soft skills training to be imparted but minimum telephone etiquette should be there. This was not personal number but official samsung service center. Never knew samsung ties with such stake holder who do not care for the brand name cos they are themselves abrand. Will be returning all products with no return of money. Want Samsung to donate this to needy as CSR. This would provide some repute to the organisation. Request to ensure people manning phone like samat khan @ jamshedpur samsung service center ( brother of azim khan owner of service center, almost a dynasty business ) are asked not to flaunt the ancestral property & money they have briebed to acquire service center

I have reported to Vivek costumer care services at several time and also Samsung customer care too.

When I reported to Vivek, Vivek Technician came and checked but they dint solve/Retrieve the problem. But the job statues are ignored / unsolved the problem.

Today (06/04/2009) when I call to Samsung and Vivek costumer care services to know the progress of my compliant but they ignored my phone call and cut the phone line.

Both customer care is completely unreliable and the worst.

So I request you to please replace the new LG Split AC instead of my new Samsung Split AC AS 18 UTA Max Gold 3S 1.50 Ton and pls take necessary action. It would be very grateful to you.

HI,


I had bought Samsung's AC in 2007 . Within a short span of 3 three years its compressor has broken down twice . This time they took 9 days to repair it & as usual are charging another 1400/- for the same inspite of the compressor being within warranty period of 5 Years .

Will never buy any of Samsung's products & share my experience at every forum with all aquaintances, friends & relatives,

Dear Sir,
I have purchased Samsung SGH-O450 BEAT series on[protected] from authorized dealer at Bharuch (Krishna Mobile, Gujarat).
I am suffering one big problem of recharge socket. I cont recharge battery through charging socket and can not use hands free& data cable also.
I had shown the instrument at Samsung service care at Baroda but that respective person told me that socket is detached from circuit. he suggested to replace whole circuit and he charging me Rs.7500/- for this. But my mobile is in the warranty period.

As my mobile is in warranty period this service should be free of cost. My mobile cost is Rs.11499/- and it is charging about half of its cost.
So please do the needful
Thank you

Hello,

I have purchased a washing machine (Model R1043, Make - Samsung) on 31 March 2007. Last week due power voltage fluctuations it got damaged. So I launched a complaint at after sales service. Same day the service engineer attended the complaint and told me that the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) got damaged and need to taken back to service centre for checking. At that time I was sure that, this can not be serviced and need to replace the damaged PCB with a new one. So, I asked the service engineer to replace it immediately if possible. Then service engineer and his team have taken a weeks time to just check if the part is serviceable or not. Now they are saying that it has to be replaced, part is not in stock and will take 4-5 days more to receive the part and then they will replace it.

During this time I have called almost 50-60 times to discuss the status and every time I used to get same answers.

It was their decision to check the part, I have already given green signal to go ahead and replace the part. Due to this I have suffered a lot of pain and now I am fed up with these people.

Please let me know what can I do in this situation.

Regards,
Kedar

Samsung is doing fraud with the consumer of India by faking features of its mobile phones on its web.
For e.g. http://www.samsung.com/in/consumer/detail/detail.do?group=mobilephones&type=...⇄ says the mobile E 1100 has FM radio & can hold up
500 contacts whereas in reality it doesn't have FM & can hold up only 200 contacts with 3 separate fields.
Hence i think the CEO of the company should kindly look in the matter.

My AC has a 5-year condensor replacement warranty. This season, I found it not working good enough and called company engineer for a routine paid service. He tells me that condensor/compressor is under warranty for 5 years and it gets choked due to choked capillaries which shall be replaced but I shal be required to pay gas refill charges of Rs 1500/-. I contested that since it is a result of condensor malfunction, it should not be charged. He did not agree and made me talk to his manager who tells me that it is choked because ACs don't work round the year and therefore because of oxidation and other reactions between copper pipes and gas, the pipes get choked and have to be frequently dechoked.

This sounds funny as per logic. What they are saying is that my AC's capillary pipes shall get choked every 3rd/4th year and I shall be made to pay for gas which is almost half the cost of the condensor.

BTW, does it help to lodge a complaint here?

There was prblm in my hardisk. When I went to the servce centre who supplied the hardisk then refused to replace/repair my 80GB harddisk which is still under warranty period. They refused on the grounds that samsung will take longer time for dealers. My warranty is getting over after 2 years...
