Samsung India Complaints & Reviews

Respected Sir, Madam,
My Samsung mobile (model SGH-U600) developed display and mic problem. I submitted the same to Samsung authorised service center on 29th Dec-08 (Address: Cell Solution, #46/1, 1st Cross, Domlur layout, Airport Road, Bangalore - 560071, Tel:[protected].
In the receipt form, there is no work order mentioned, but IMEI/RSN # is 358105/01/100863/3.
Till date (today is 27th Jan 09) i have not received any calls from them. They had promised it will be done within 10 working days. Once when i called them, they asked me to come down and collect it. When i went there they told its still in repair and has not yet returned from BTM headoffice. If i ask them estimated date then they say another 10 more days or else they will call up if it comes sooner. My repeated follow up calls to them is not yielding any results. They keep telling that they are waiting for the spare part (LCD).

Please look into this matter and help me out,

Thanks in advance,
Rgds,
Anil.

Bought a new 32" LCD A550P1 for ~40K. When i switched it on for the firrt time it showed no picture, the sound comes fine but NO PICTURE! Pathetic, and this has happened to a brand new LCD TV! So much for quality of Samsung.

Called up the customer care but the people there are completely dumb and can't understand anything. Called up the dealer he say they will replace the piece, don't think they will do it, have no faith now

But my advice to all looking for LCD TV: Stay away from Samsung, if their products are designed to fail from day 1 you can imagine how inept they are.

i had purchased samsung fully loaded washing machine on 20.01.2009 from vasanth and co dealer and till now no demo had been given for the washing machine. Inbetween i personally called customer careand registered a complaint on 22 01 2009 reg the demo and as per the compalint it will sorted within 48 hrs but still there is no response and thy had given an service center no of chennai and they informed the complaint will be attened by 21 01 2009 by 8 pm still no one turned up when i enquired about the query reg the complaint on 25 01 2009 to customer care the response is very pathetic one person said it will be attended and one mr arjun who is team leadeer says that it will attended by tuesday on 27th


reg this pl help on the same
my comp no is [protected]

HELLO,



LET US ANALYSE WHAT WAS THE OUTCOME OF THE ESCALATIONS BELOW. I GOT A CALL ON 12-JAN FROM GURGAON AND GOT ASSURANCE THAT MY CONCERNS WILL BE TAKEN CARE. THEN I ALSO GOT A CALL FROM MYLAPORE CHENNAI OFFICE WHERE VIDHYA CALLED AND INFORMED ME THAT AC WILL BE REPLACED IN NEXT 25 DAYS AS BEING THE PART OF THE NORMAL PROCEDURE. I AM REALLY SURPRISED THAT NO ACTIONS ARE TAKEN EVEN WHEN THE CUSTOMER IS VERY CONCERNED.



MY BIG QUESTION IS WHY THE AC CANNOT BE REPLACED QUICKER THAN THE NORMAL PROCEDURE?
ARE MY CONCERNS TAKEN SERIOUSLY AND ON TOP PRIORITY?
THE MORE BIGGEST CONCERN IS THAT NOBODY FOLLOWS UP PROPERLY TOWARDS IT’S RESOLUTION?
NO PROPER COMMUNICATION IS PROVIDED ANY POINT OF TIME? BECAUSE OF THIS I HAVE WASTED AROUND Rs.100 IN FOLLOWUPS CALLS SEVERAL TIMES.


AS I HAVE CHANGED TO NEW ADDRESS RECENTLY, I REQUEST YOU TO DELIVER THE AC TO THE NEW ADDRESS GIVEN BELOW:



SANDIP RAJ

DOOR NO:1, PLOT NO: 11, 2ND FLOOR,

6TH STREET, BALAJI NAGAR,

NANGANALLUR,

CHENNAI-600061

AS DISCUSSED WITH VIDHYA I ALSO WANT FREE INSTALLATION IN NEW ADDRESS.

I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS SOME PROBLEM IN COOLING UNIT. THE REPLACEMENT OF THE SAME HAS BEEN ORDERED AND AC WOULD BE DELIVERED IN NEXT 10 DAYS. I GOT A CALL ON 6-JAN-09 AND SHIVA TECHNICIAN FROM WORSHOP CAME AND TOOK THE AC INVOICE. TODAY I.E. 9-JAN-09 THE WORKSHOP PEOPLE DROPPED THE AC AT MY HOME WITHOUT DOING ANY REPAIRS AND TOLD THAT IT WILL BE REPLACED.

WHEN I CALLED SHIVA KUMAR(WORKSHOP) AT [protected] AND GOT NO PROPER TIMELINE FOR THE REPLACEMENT. IT APPEARED THAT EVRYONE IS TRYING TO PLAY SAFE GAME MAKING ME FOOL. I GOT PRASHANT’S NO WHO WORKS IN SAMSUNG AND IS INCHARGE OF REPLACEMENT. I CALLED HIM AT HIS MOBILE NO [protected] AND GOT THE INFORMATION THAT AC WOULD BE REPLACED IN NEXT 2 WEEKS.

EXTREMELY POOR SENSE O[censored]RGENCY
NO PROPER COMMUNICATION AND COORDINATION
POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE


MAY I REQUEST YOU TO GET MY AC REPLACED AT THE EARLIEST? IMMEDIATE ACTION IS REQUIRED RATHER THAN RESPONDING A DIPLOMATIC EMAIL. I AM ALSO READY TO ESCALATE THIS ISSUE AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL IN SAMSUNG. SEEKING POSITIVE AND IMMEDIATE RESPONSE.

Title : Disappointed with AC after sales service

Hello,



I had bought Samsung 1 Ton split AC AS12J on 20-sep-08. I have recently encountered a major problem on 18-Dec where the AC stopped providing cooling effect. I called Service call number[protected] on 19-Dec-09. After 4 reminders with follow-ups, service person came on 20-Dec at 12.15pm. He cleaned the filter and left telling that it is a COMPRESSOR problem and advised me to call[protected]. I called the customer care[protected] and logged complain on 20-Dec at 12.30pm. Complain number [protected] was provided. Again sending repetitive reminders by calling[protected] around 5 times, the technician contacted me on 22-Dec at 10.40am. He called from another customer care number[protected]. After rigorous follow up from them again, the technician came on 22-Dec at 3pm. He also left within 5 minutes without giving me proper explanation. When asked several times, he communicated me in tamil stating that somebody else will come in 2 days to look as this being a GAS LEAK problem. Even the AC has to be taken for repair for some days. I request you to answer my question below and act immediately:



· I have suffering a lot for the last 4 days without AC’s cooling effect, may I know who is responsible for that?

· If there is gas leak problem in AC, why the AC cannot be replaced immediately?

· When the proper communication is not provided by technician?

· Is this the proper service provided by Samsung?



I would like to escalate this issue at utmost high priority level. Resolution is expected immediately.

Complaint: I Akash Raizada purchased a DVD Player model P-480R, on 12th Oct from KBM
Electronics, Lxmi Nagar, Delhi. In which the FM Radio is in-built as per
the specicfications.
But after trying many times to start it, radio dosen''t work. For which I
complained to SAMSUNG on 13th OCT with reference number [protected] at their call center at number[protected]. First they reffered me to ask for the demo session from local SAMSUNG DEMO
center, which I got on the next after calling the DEMO guy at my home on
14th OCT.
He after testing product decline to make it''s radio run because it was
faulty.
For the same when I approached to SAMSUNG NATIONAL CALL CENTER at
[protected]n 14th and they arrange to send an engineer and engineer
asked me to wait for 2-4 days after checking this device (as they were
running short for spare parts to change.) After that i''ve called on
[protected] fo at least 10 times and always they ask for 2-4 days to
wait.
Consequences : Since as per the specifications the product and services
are not being provided to me even having a complaint registerded with the
concerned team of the organisation and service challenged product have
been sold to me. Now I''m feeling that I''ve been cheated and befooled.

This is a kind mental and finacial cheating and miking the customers fool.
The product is not the value for money at all as all the specified fatures
are not provided.

SAMSUNG is having worst after sales service having no backup.

Sub: Complain against my SAMSUNG mobile hand set # F480, IMIE:-[protected]

Sir,
I have purchased a new SAMSUNG Hand set from HOT SPOTS RETAILS LTD. Shop no-10, New Market Malviya Nagar, New Delhi-110017 on 08/12/2008, BY CASH of Rs.18350/-in the name of my wife Mrs. Yasee Jaspal R/o 96-C, Eastern Avenue, Sainik Farms, New DELHI-110062, it never worked properly from the day I purchased, it doesn’t have voice clarity or always have a disturbed outgoing sound.
I took that phone after 3 days to HOTSPOTS for exchange and they referred me to their authorized SAMSUNG Service center at Malviya Nagar Corner Market, New Delhi-110017. and the service center staff asked to come after 3-4 days& again after 3-4 days our staff ms. Rupika went to HOTSPOT Malviya Nagar, for its exchange and again its manager Mr. Surinder sent her to the service center, saying that only Samsung people will exchange it wherein at Samsung service center she met Himani and Akhilesh, who claimed himself the manager of the center, wherein he looked at the phone instrument and asked to leave it for with him for 4-5 days for repairs, wherein I am not interested to get the new instrument repaired but I am only interested to its exchange or refund of the money.
And Mr. Akhilesh said that since you have bought it from HOTSPOTS in cash therefore you have to go to the HOTSPOTS to collect the money,
We came back to HOTSPOTS and demanded the refund of the payment wherein the Manager of the HOTSPOTS refused to refund the money of the Samsung instrument F480 and started abusing us by mentioning the name of his proprietor as Mr. Modi who is a influential person of the city and runs a big hospital called Modi Hospital in Saket and he further said that Modi can get me killed, but on my request he did not even give the name and telephone number of the president of HOTSPOTS .finding no other alternate I called on number 100 FOR POLICE ASSISTANCE, who reached in 15 minuts time wherein they asked for the local Thana Police who asked the manager Mr. Surinder of Hotspot to reach the police station in the mean time I called Samsung corporate office also where I spoke with Mr. Ganesh.
On just reaching the police station Malviya Nagar I received a call from Mr. Neeraj of Samsung who insisted not to lodge an FIR against SAMSUNG and he will get the said Handset exchanged within 5 working days.
Since it can be last minute decision by Samsung to deceive me I hereby request you to lodge an FIR against Mr. Modi and staff of HOTSPOTS along with the staff of Samsung for cheating me by providing a damaged or defected mobile phone, For any further information please call me on my mobile number.

Thanking you

COPY BY EMAIL TO COMMISSIONER OF POLICE

i bought samsung SGH-L700 mobile on[protected] & i was told by the shop(A.K.COMMUNICATIONS SAMSUNG MOBILE PRIVILEGE PARTNER) person that he will give me some extra services like DOA will be extended for 3 months if i buy phone for Rs. 7500, but after some bargaining he sold me the mobile for Rs.7400( BILL NO. AK-HTS1145 & Shop TIN no. [protected]). On 3rd Jan 2009 i faced some problem with my handset & i approached the shop owner & he said to me since you bargained on the amount you will not get the special services like extended DOA, then on 6th jan 2009 i approached the Samsung service centre & they told me that any shop owner cannot extend DOA, it is the illegal act practised by the shop owner. Moreover the shop owner used abusive language when talking to me & insulted me in front of one of my friend which has caused other people making my fun.


NOTE: DOA is facility provided by samsung under which any handset can be exchanged within 7 days after the purchase, if there is any problem with handset free of cost.

i am fadep with my tv.

Recently I have purchased a Samsung Duo D780 and a Samsung blue tooth device WEP250. My problem is that though the combination is working well I am unable to receive calls automatically even after switching on to "automatic answer" option under answering mode category on the handset. I have tried all combinations and permutations. Can any one help?

Dear Sir,
I perchased washing machine before 5 months back[protected] but 3 times already your service engineer repared this machine, but not washing drain problem Sallow, and last time i called your costemer service to this complaint No. [protected] but they not response, and please take your washing machine and give me new machine.

Thank you,

i have bought 2 split AC AS18FJX from electromart stores sector 18 Noida on 14/04/08 out of that one had not been working properly since the time it was installed .i have made several complains(complain no-[protected])and initially i was told there had been a leakage of gas and the problem would be rectified.
but the problem persisted and i made another complain, same thing happened and then after several complains samsung engineer finally informed us that the AC will be replaced.for reasons i am not aware of the samsung record is showing that the customer has refused repair of AC and is demanding replacement(the truth is your own engineers came to that conclusion)
this is what happened in september.after that there has been absolutely no response from samsung despite my repeated calls at the samsung service centre.
i request the authorities to take notice of my situation.i have spent more than 50000 rs trusting the brand samsung, but the services have disappointed me.i have spent an entire summer without AC and the frustation and anger is growing every day as there is absoultely no positive response from Samsung. Thier customer support representatives keeps telling us someone will contact us but no body does.

I bought samsung Lcd 20" Model no. LA20S51DTM in the year 2007, January. After 4 months i faced a problem in picture display. Since it was in warrantee period they immediately visited my place and fixed the problem. Again after few days in the same month I faced the same problem. Again it was rectified since it was in warrantee period. After that I didn’t face any problem till today. Now again I am facing the same problem. I immediately called to their customer care no. They have noted down complain and given me complain no. [protected]. Their service person visited my place and ask for 1200/- Rs. I was shocked to hear the amount. 1200/- Rs. Just to visit at my place to attain my problem.

I thought I should have asked for replacement o[censored]nit in my warrantee period only. My main concerned is if I pay them the amount and if again I faced the same problem after 2 months I have to pay again he same amount. So year on year if I select to run same television I’ll end up paying half of the cost of new television. I told them I wouldn’t mind paying for any damaged part or if any mistake had happened from my side to handling it. But asking for 1200/- Rs. Just to visit for checking problem is way too high. I called several times to their service call centre all the time they end call by saying we’ll ask our senior engineer to call you back. But it’s been 7 to 8 days now I have never received any call from them and I end up calling everyday and I get the same reply.
I would advice before purchasing any TV please check their after sales service. I had a really poor experience with Samsung India.

for every image on the monitor i get shade of that picture which makes viewing impossible

I would recommend Samsung to stop selling if they are not competent enough to service it.
