Sony India Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir, I have realised some vendors of Sony are not interested in maintaining the brand "Sony" which has taken years to build. My SONY handset bearing [protected] has been given for service against the Work-order W[protected] submitted on 13th February and there is still no clarity till date. Even their mail never mentions any deadline by when i can recieve the handset (its just a diplomatic line but no deadline, so im sure they are not adhering to any deadline). Dealing with Sony was a displeasure as the product was faulty(45 days) and no replacement, but even more pathetic was the service rendered by CCOM Telecommunications, Thane. Its not that every second day a consumer can afford to invest huge sums in purchasing high end phones like this but i can see my hard earned money gone to drain. Please let me know if you can help me expose this nexus between some retailers, Branded Organisations and their dubious Service centre. Regards Saurabh Kesharwani

I Pranay Lonare making this complaint against Sony service centre at Nagpur, Maharshtra. As Sony is providing pathetic services to the customers I am one of them. I had submitted my scratchless Sony Xperia Z1 on 3rd Jan 2015 as I was facing some problems regarding the wifi, battery backup and a broken flap, they returned me the phone within 8-10 days they gave me back the phone by just upgrading the software only without repairing it. After 3-4 days later I re-submitted the phone on dated 16th of January 2015 hoping that the Sony service will either provide me the replacement with the better or new device or repair it. On 22nd January Sony provided me the re-fermished phone which was lot more worst than my device, it was having too many problems and 1 years old device as my device was manufactured of 2014 & I got the device manufacture of 2013. After that I again submitted the phone on approx 3rd of feb for replacement, they took approx 1 month and returned the same phone used device manufactured of 2013 with lots of problems, I have rejected the phone now on 26th of feb. I did complaint on Sony customer care but they are also not responding to it. I did not invested this much money to use the used phone. I am really frustrated by the pathetic services given by Sony. And now I either want the new phone or I want my total money refund. Please take the actions fast as I'm submitting the device from last 2-3 months. Ticket Id:-[protected]

However, over the past few months the Camera was misbehaving and the software failed to open, at times. As advised by Sony Customer Care (Request ID [protected] dated 17 Jan 15), I had approached Sony ASC, Technocare Solutions Pvt Ltd at Lajpat nagar for warranty repairs along with valid documents on 18 Jan 15. The staff (Ms Rawat) accepted my phone for checking software and gave me a job card receipt against my signature. However, she immediately took back the receipt stating that the warranty cannot be invoked because the staff suspected water ingress, which I failed to understand since the mobile has never taken any water and was working in perfect condition except that the camera at times failed to switch on, a problem I started noticing often since Sep 14. I used to rectify the problem by restarting the phone. I had approached the ASC since the phone was under warranty. In spite of my stating that the phone was under warranty, the staff insisted that I would have to pay for re-installing the software else they wont accept the phone. After failing to convince the adamant staff, I relented to pay for the service since I just wanted the camera software rectified and they said, it would only cost Rs 168 for updating software. I handed over the phone at 1400h and approached the centre again to collect the phone at 1600h. At this juncture, the staff stated that the software update has not worked and they would have to replace the motherboard for which they would give me an estimate. I took the phone to check and found that the software was NOT updated and the date o[censored]pdate was Nov 2014, when I had last updated it to Android 4.4.4. I could make out that the staff was lying about updating the software since they just wanted to extract more money from an unsuspecting customer. When I confronted the staff about this, they started fumbling and said that only a file of camera software was upgraded. It was very evident that the staff was trying to cheat. They wanted me to pay Rs 5450 /- for changing the motherboard eventhough the phone was under warranty period. I therefore took the phone back and downloaded a commercial phone app Camera360 on my own and now the phone camera is performing well. I would like to reiterate that though my sony camera sofware is still erratic, all other commercial phone camera apps are working well. May I therefore request you to kindly investigate the matter and please provide an explanation as to why an ASC Technocare Soulution was trying to cheat a customer by first stating that warranty cannot be invoked, then lying that phone sofware was updated by them and finally trying to fleece the customer. I would also request you to kindly get the phone serviced by any other reliable and genuine Sony ASC in Delhi. Alternately, you may kindly replace the equipment or refund the cost of phone so that I can purchase a phone from other reputed phone manufacturers.

Recently I purchased Sony TV & I was assured by the dealer that under World Cup Special offer I will get free Sony clock Radio, I have been following up for about a month with the dealer & I get to listen the same excuses about the shortage of supply. I am really disappointed by the false commitment made to me. I am not disappointed because I did not get the gift. I am really upset about the false commitment made to me.

To, Chief Managing Director.I purchased LED T.V.Sony Bravia (MODEL No.KDL-40Ex520 Sr.No.2458479) during 1st Quarter of 2012 for the cost of 59, 000/- with warranty of one year. No doubt the condition is always applicable but it does not mean it will be spoiled within two and half year. During August, 2014 T.V.was not functioning and therefore complaint was lodged and mechanic attended and stated that panel is to be replaced to the cost of Rs.28000/-. Since there was no other alternative we agreed for the same and the panel was replaced by Aarvee Info Services (Sony Authorised Centre). But just one week before again the same problem arouse and my son Mr.Mandar Jogalekar has lodged the complaint with same authorised dealer mentioned above and today the mechanic has atttended and examined the T.V. When he stated that now montherboard is damaged and he has taken it for replacement within two days with the cost of 2, 500/-. If the head of Sony is not having a confidence about the manufacturing quality, then why the customers should suffer. I do not agree with the varying statements being made by your authorised dealer and it goes without says that it is absolute bluffing to the customers. I request your authority to replace the entire T.V. without cost now and with warranty, because after every few months it is not possible for me to bear such expenditure. Kindly consider my request otherwise there will be no other alternative to seek a decision from appropriate consumer court immediately. The image of Sony India is absolutely damaged. Please take a note and do the needful. Thanking you, S.V.JOGALEKAR

I am from kolkata and I had bought my xperia zl on 11sept 2013. Now my handset is not switching on. On holding power button the SONY logo comes and then it switches off. Battery was fully charged. I went to the nearest Sony authorized service center and they told me that the company doesnt provide support and spare parts for this model (that something was wrong with the circuit board). So they cant repair it. They offered another brand new sony handset with 20% discount. I even went to another Sony authorised service centre who told me the same story. Is this your company policy to boost sales? I bought the phone for Rs 35000/- from a Sony dealer and now instead of providing support your company is offering another way to make you richer instead. Why should i buy a new phone? Why cant you say it in your adverts that all your phones are 'USE and Throw' types? That once your phone gets glitched you will have to "throw" it away at your service centres and buy a new one from them. I am appalled and disgusted by the way you treat your customers who trusted you with their hard earned money and i hoped for a better protocol followed by a company of your repute. I am a busy doctor and i dont have time to run around service centres for a simple job. Please look into the matter and contact me soon. dr.[protected]@yahoo.com

@sony_india LCD Service request pending since 5th Feb. Service no.23763696. How long does it take to get basic accessory for LCD?? Very DISAPPOINTED The local area has offices shut on Tuesdays and executives are never available on the call. I vouch to never buy a Sony product again in my life.

I Mr. Ronald Roshan Sequeira having been purchased the world’s best phone Sony Xeperia Z series for Rupees 32990 ( inclusive of vat) on 30th January 2014 from a reputed authorised dealer “Cellphonica” at Mangalore invoice no : 10274. I was very much excited and having great expectations on its performance, as I believed that SONY is a market leader and always wanting to give great value to the money invested and delight the customers, But unfortunately I am disappointed to share being a loyal customer of SONY for years, the phone was performing badly I had to face frequent battery low problem, even if I didn’t use data or though my screen brightness was very low, hence with no option I had to use on stamina mode, apart from it whenever I used to talk, the other person couldn’t hear clearly, so I visited the authorised service centre, somehow I got the phone replaced, but even on the replaced phone the same problem occurred, further I reported to the same issues to the Authorised service centre executive at Mangalore but the executives refused to accept such issues and gave couple of excuses, Unfortunately off late my phone fell from my hands and there are couple of scratches on the screen of the phone and the touch sensor is not functioning, when I enquired the authorised service centre executives they said I would have to pay 50 percent of the cost of the phone to get it refurbished as there is no system of servicing the existing phone. Kindly help in resolving the issue of a loyal customer Warm Regards Ronald Sequeira Mendes Villa Mendes Estate Taccode Post Moodbidri Mob : [protected]

Sir, I purchased one Sony Xperia model E1 D 2105 on[protected] from Cell point Potluru mansions, Dabagaqrdens, Visakhapatnam 530020 at a cost of Rs.6, 600-00, It developed problem in the charging socket in the 1st week of February, . I consulted S.S.Technologies, Sony authorised centre Akkayyapalem, Visakhapatnam, the set was given back to me on[protected] charging Rs.1, 250-00 for which bill was not given even on demand, the same problem recurred again yesterday, I took the set to the above centre, the technician said that either I should pay Rs.5000-00 for replacement of mother board or Rs.1250--00 for repair. I fail to understand that the set was purchased hardly 2 months back, when it is under warranty, why the above centre demands money without doing service at free of cost. I request you to please arrange free service to my set or order for replacement without cost and refund the amount of Rs.1250-00 I paid on[protected] to save me from the avoidable tension.and reply.

Few weeks back i had issues with the mobile SIM(s) not getting detected and i took my handset to R-Logic Technology(P) Ltd in Rajajinagar. They logged a complaint and the folllowing happened:1. The system board was replaced2. The very next day my camera stopped working and i took the same to the service centre. 3. Here they said that the camera is not compatible with system board and they will replace the same4 They took almost a week and then when the part arrived they replaced it and then later they tell that the camera issue is not resolved as the NEW REPLACED SYSTEM BOARD IS ONCE AGAIN FAULTY5. Since then my phone is with them and they are making me run from pillar to post and they say that now they will replace some other part.WORST THING THEY ARE NOT BOTHERED TO KEEP ME UPDATED.. I HAVE TO TRAVEL EACH TIME TO SERVICE CENTRE AND FOLLLOW UP. MULTIPLE CALLS TO THE SERVICE CENTRE MANY ARE UNANSWERED AND REST FALSE ASSURANCES ARE GIVEN . I AM REALLY FED UP AND I WANT MY PHONE REPLACED / REPAIRED AND GIVEN ASAP . SONY needs to understand that customers are not jobless that they have time in the world to keep calling or visiting the service centre. Having brought smart phones which are expensive the service PROVIDED IS PATHETIC .. I have lost faith in this brand and i will never recommend this to any one..PLEASE CONTACT ME ASAP Humera +91 [protected]
