Samsung India Complaints & Reviews

I have purchesed a 19'' Samsung TFT monitor on 1st August 2008. In a weeks time it was dead. After makeing several calls to samsung service center on there toll free ( [protected]) on 11th August 2008 a person visited to attend the complaint. The circuit board in TFT was found faulty. As it was a new purches I should have got the replacement but they denied it and repaired the new monitor.
Now the picture quality is gone bad and when I start my PC, monitor keep flickring for 15 to 20 seconds.
Please guide me where I can complain about this.

Dear Sir/ Madam,
I have purchased a Samsung mobile (SGH-E251) on 11.08.08 from mobile store retail outlet (address- Mobile Store Limited, 227, Diamond Harbour Road, Pathakpara, Kolkata).After one day o[censored]sing i found that the mobile is getting switched off automatically.Sometimes duing a call or sometimes just like that.

I have been to SAMSUNG customer care center of Raja Basant Rai Road, New Alipore to check if something can be done, there is no body to attend the customers properly, they are not taking the complains nicely. They have asked me to go to LEE ROAD SAMSUNG CUSTOMER CARE CENTRE which is their head office in kolkata. Even they were not ready to take my complain, they said they dont have the software for this mobile. I have to leave my mobile with them till 4-5 of September as they cannot arrange the software before that.

One of the guy in the customer care centre of Raja Basant Rai Road Kolkata did a favour of calling up LEE ROAD CUSTOMER CARE CENTRE.They are saying that they dont have the software to check the mobile.

I wonder how one of the world's largest company of consumer goods have such poor after sale service.

I shall be glad if you take my request into consideration and do the needful.

Thanks

Dear Sir,
I am having Sumsung washing machine model no. WT 7400. After complaint registration, your company service engineer claimed rs. 1406 for changing a washing dub spin moter. Which worth is rs. 650 in local market. So you are requested to pl. clarify me for claiming fake charges to me. My full complain details, you will find at your customer complain registrar through using my cell no. [protected]. I am waiting for your favourable response.

I took Samsung washing machine from GIRIAS on 31st July and took delivery on 3rd August. From Day-1 it is not working. Demo engineer came and told me that it has major problem, complain at service centre. I gave complaint in Samasung Customer care in Bangalore @[protected] and they gave me reference number [protected]. I booked complaint on 10th Aug. Till now no one service engineer visited my place. When ever I Call customer care, they say, Engineer will come today. Please let me know anyone knows about consumer court info, to go through this issue.

Purchased Samsung Mobile Phone Model No: SCH S259 on 04.10.07.
For the last few months it is happenning that when I am talking in my Mobile set the receiver is getting very very low voice which is equal to non-hearing of sound.

I had contacted the Service Centre " Customer Services Plaza" of 10A, Lee Road, Pressman House Kolkata - 700 020. They made some repearing and assured that it will work fine. But there was no much improvement. I have mentioned this to them several times and they told that it can not be done in any better manner. I have asked for the replacement of that specific parts so that my set runs smoothly but it was nothing but "crying for water in desert".
Presently it is absolutely very difficult to carry with this problem. I fail to understand how your service centre can be so relactant about customer's problem.
Considering the brand value of Samsung I place my grivence with a hope that it will be resolved at the earliest.

Subject: Serious Complains against repairing center
Sir,
Please note with regret that our customer, Pravinkumar Chhajer purchased the new E-840 hand set from us. After some days problem arise with hand set. The hand set is in warranty period. We send it for repairing to ASC. Bhavsar refrigeration, Dhule. He on his level repaired it but he talk us on telephone that he sends it to L-3. It was repaired OK. The repairer keep the hand set with him for 5 to 6 days and not return to us. Just after 3rd day repairer told us on telephone that it is problematic and he is sending back the hand set to company for repairing.
Now Company returned the handset in dead condition with estimate repairing cost of 4388/-
We are astonished how it happens.
Below is the data.

(We are enclosing the scan of jobsheet.)
2) Second estimate dated 29/07/2008. For the reason of CPU cracked

Please note that the handset is in warranty period. The part of mobile was damaged by ASC., DHULE. during repairing. And after it he send it to l-3 and now he is giving the estimate for repairing. Which is falls
It must be repaired or replace by company immediately free of cost. Other wise we have to knock the court and all concern will be responsible for the next, which will be bad effected to the company name.

Dear Sir,
This is in continuation to my previous mail in which I lounged a complaint regarding a Samsung handset i.e. SCH-W339 a CDMA
hand set. I bought this handset on 7th November, 2007 and from the past 6 months; I have been facing lot of problem in this mobile. I have given this mobile several times in your service centre at Janakpuri (Delhi), but still the problem is not resolved. Also, the head of this branch has started ignoring us due to his inability to repair this mobile. Even the people working their has are also misbehaving with us. From the past 1 month the mobile is with them and they are not giving us and are continously saying the mobile is in head office despite of this fact the head office people i.e Mr. Rajeev head of north india (0-[protected]) are saying we have already dispatched it. Even now they are also not attending our calls.

Infact, the time of your one year free service is also about to complete and if you cannot repair this cell phone they who is going to pay for for it because in the time period of 10 month, the cell phone is with you for about 6 months and it is still with you.

So, please pay due concern to our request and either repair it or replace it, or otherwise it will force us to go to consumer court and fill the case against you as there has been no response from your side also.

Requester,
JAI GOEL

This is to lodge my complaint for non-repair of my samsung refrigerator for tha last 15 days . I had lodged complaint with samsung call centre[protected] dated: 19-July-2008, BP number - [protected]. The service engineer visited my home and told me that heater is defective and needs to be replaced. The service engineer told me that the defective part will be changed in next 3-4 working days. However since then the part has not been replaced. THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY RESPONSE FROM ANY OF THE SERVICE ENGINEER.

Additionally the SERVICE ENGINEER advised us to switch off the freeze for 2 hours and then run for 10 hours as a temporary solution. And now my freeze has started making a strange noise.

I AM HIGHLY DIS-SATISFIED WITH THE SERVICE OF SAMSUNG AND MY FAITH IN THIS BRAND HAS BEEN SHATTERED.

1. I had bought a washing machine, SAMSUNG fully automatic, 6 Kg, on 7 July 06, for around Rs10, 000/-.The mahine had a warranty of 2 years.The machine had a first problem in October 07.The service person told that the PCB got defective and he replaced the defective PCB with a spare.

2. On 02 Aug 08, the machine again had a problem. the service person told that the same PCB is again defective.He said that because of cockroaches, the PCB got defective.As the machine is out of warranty, I have to pay for the spare.The spare cost quoted is astronomical Rs 2500/-.

3. I feel that the since the spare is a costly one, and as the service person claims it was last replaced in Oct 07 with a new one, will only the PCB have a warranty till Oct 08? Can any one help me how to deal the case?

TO WHOMSOEER IT MAY CONCERN
I had bought Samsung DVD Player and CTV Slimfit on Dated[protected] from Samsung Digital Home Sec-8, Chandigarh.Hardly, I had watched 2 movies on the DVD and after that it was not working which I realized on 10th month.After that I tried to contact the Samsung Service Centre and also visited the showroom where I had bought from as it was under warranty.But due to their poor back up Warranty period also expired.
After that also I kept getting calls but nobody used to turn up.Anyways one fine day a technician visited but after inspection said that it needs to be brought to service centre.
Next day I visited service centre and after a day I got call that DVD is Perfectly Fine and after that also when I watched at home it was non functional.
Now again I am running frompillar to post so that somebody could revisit and do the needful but I have just been getting calls and nobody has cared to visit.

I had purchased a samsung mobile model no SCH- S 269 whose IME/ ESN - 16 DFA969 dated 12.01.2008 from CELL POINT C- 9/10, Krishna Nagar, Delhi - 110051 . In the month of July, I found that there is no voice going out . So I went to the Samsung mobile service center at Patparganj M/s M. S. Electronics 513, FIE Patparganj Industrial area, Delhi -110092 . But they refused to take this mobile because of non availability of spare parts. Then I went to the another service center in Noida M/s G N H Telecom, Ist floor, Tilak Bhavan, Sharma Market, Atta Chowk, Noida dated on 28.07.2008 . But till date, there is no satisfactory reply given by them . Since 28.07.2008, they assured me that you will collect your mobile next day . Till date, I didnot get it . I am very disappointed to the service of such type of a big Organisation like Samsung . So you are requested to forward this complaint to the concern department.

my handset model no.SGH-C160B was submitted on 9 th july, 2008 for repairing in samsungs classic systems & services which is in warranty period have not been received it back yet...
facing lot of problems without phone n whenever call to check the status then no proper replies are given and phone is put on hold for more than 30 mins...

I own a color television of Samsung. In June 2003, I the TV stopped functioning. There was no picture nor sound. I called for Samsung dealer in Gurgaon India. He replaced power supply and a component R2KN. He charged me Rs 800 for that. The service dept charges Rs 200 for visit charges.
In Oct 2003 the same problem occurred. At that time I was in Noida. The service engineer of Noida Sansung office came and saw the defect. He shanged the power supply. He told me that the part R2KN was missing. Shocking!!!
In Nov 2007, same problem occurred. gain the Gurgaon service engineer comes, changes power supply and one more part. Charges Rs 809. He is unable to diagnose the real root cause.
On 23rd July 2008, again the TV stops functioning. I call for an engineer, he replaces a diode. Charges Rs 304. He did the job in morning. By evening of same day, TV is dead once again.
Next day the guy comes again and says two more parts are gone. And I need to pay Rs 602. He says that there is no warranty on parts. He is not sur of real problem. I ask for a photocopy of his service form. He refuses. He is afraid to give the service document.
On 2nd August 2008 the power supply again blows off. This time the serivice engineer again replaces two components and refuses to give the service record.

The Gurgaon service centre is really out of control. Immediate need is to fire the service people and create a new service centre. The way these guys are refusing to give service record is an example of cheating and forgery. They know that they are putting up duplicate parts. They try to blame me for electrical fluctuations.
I seriously recommend to everyone not to buy Samsung products. There are many options available in market othe rthan Samsung.

Hello,
I am holding a samsung 260 Litre with me. For the past one year, i am having issues with my refrigerator .However, i am fed with the insincere attitude of Samsung customer care. I need to keep following up with the customer care executives for the problems we are facing with the refrigerator .Most of the work they are doing is patch work which is very short term and we need to again reopen the same issues again with the customer care.
Today, again we are facing the same issue with customer care assuring us of prompt response but to no avail.I dont know what else to do but raise the complaint in a public forum like this.

I had purchased a 29" Flat TV around 2 years back. Around a month ago, it developed a problem wherein we could not view the picture but could only hear the sound. We logged a complaint at the call centre post which an engineer came and fixed the problem. However, the very next day, TV again was not working. We logged the compaint again and another engineer came. Again the problem was fixed but the same evening, TV was not working. In the process they also replaced two original parts of our TV which we don't know was even required or not. Post that we have been consistenly calling customer care but there is no response except for false promises that someone will revert. Its more than a month since we have been following up but our TV has not been repaired. We have also written couple of emails but of no response. What is sad is the "We dont care attitude" of the Customer care who doesn't even make us talk to some senior executive. Its really sad to see the poor after sales services of Samsung.

i have submitted my 40 GB HDD at ur service center
Date :- 03/07/08
Work Order No:[protected]
center Add :- nehru place, Delhi
i submitted my Hdd at 03/07/08 what still my Hdd not replaced whenever i called ur service center they allways said that ihave not 40 GB Hdd stock so u call us tomorrow, what in next day when i call the answer still same...so i have a problem without Hdd my computer dead...so plz do something...

I purchased the Samsung mobile from the HOT SPOT mobile center in Janakpuri Comunittee center and since the time of purchase which was 28th November 2007 the phone has been sent 3 times to the service center at B-26, GR, FLOOR, MOTI NAGAR NEW DELHI Ph.[protected] but after few days of repair the same problem comes in and mobile doesn't works at all.

Though I have mailed to the customer care twice at support.[protected]@samsung.com but there is no response from them and when called into their Customer care dept. they promised to get in touch with me for the same reason but still there is no response.

Later when I called in to the service center at the above mentioned address to get the status on my mobile and it seemed to me that they have lost the handset as they have failed to locate the device when I myself visisted the service center and asked for my cell phone.

kindly help me or guide me how to proceed further in this senario.

Thanks

Dear Sir,
I went to sumsung sevice centre, (4/127a, bach farzana, Agra[protected]u.p.) for book complaint of CUT VOICE on 80% CALLS INCOMING OR OUTGOING. As per your executive we check & confirm you within 2 days. When After 3 days i called him & ask about my Mobile, they said Mobile sent to Delhi b'coz this can not be correct here & it will take 25 days approximately. which type of service you are providing here. i ask to provide me standby set, he denied me, tell me what should i do. If you doesn't take action i am thinking to go consumer forum.
Thanks
