I have purchase the LED in 2011. In November 2013, the LED raised with some picture problem in which sound was coming and showing dark screen. I took my LED to service center in Shastri Nagar, New Delhi. The problem was the fuse coil( LED Repaired by them and they charged for that), but same problem occurred second time just after 2-3 months. Then, service center charged me again double for the same problem telling me this time that fuse coil replaced and sealed. Now, its just 1 -2 months goes there is again the problem in the LED i.e the screen get polluted and got increased brightness. Does we need to visit regularly to Service Centre even spending lot and purchasing SONY products. Please look up for this case.

            Job number - J[protected] J40015228 Issue: Laptop doesn't power on. J[protected] - Laptop stops working with the same problem in just above 3 weeks. J40015228 - Laptop stops working with the same problem in just within 3 weeks. So its very much evident that this is a faulty piece which keeps going bad with the same problem over and over again in spite of Sony keeping it with itself for more than 9 weeks for the above mentioned jobs. Clearly if you are keeping a new laptop at the service center for 9+ weeks within 6 months of purchase, and it still pops up the same issue then I do have every right on earth to get this piece replaced. So, please let me know when and how this laptop would be replaced. I have spoken to Sony care (ID[protected] and the customer service personnel has requested me to drop a mail. At Sony care, no one heeds to revert back in any form how much so ever you call them, write to them.

You shoudl have recalled such defective laptop the mometn you know there is a known issue Even defective cars are recalled by the Automobile manufacturers. why not laptops. After putting my hard earned money into your laptop after trusting your brand, i get such defective laptop. not only me, you have cheated so many other customers who bought this model from you What is the answer to my grievance. am i supposed to shut off the laptop after 10 minutes just because of your design issue /faulty fan I want some answer to my grievance here.

                Hello, I have purchased a Sony Xperia C ( C2305) Mobile on 12th Jan 2014 from Sangeetha Showroom located at Kormangala and when using the mobile found that the cell phone had the defect in camera clarity when I compared with other Sony Xperia C. I visited the Sangeetha showroom on 18th Jan (7PM Evening) and was directed to the Vigneshwar Services ( authorized sony service center) located at #659, Ground Floor, 17th D Main, OPP to kormangala club, 6th Block, Bangalore- 650095. I had went to the Vigneshwar service center on 20th Jan 2014 and raised the ticket for the defect as concerned person in the center updated the mobile software whereas it still did not resolve the issue of the camera after my review. Per the concerned person they would be doing the repairing and return the mobile, whereas on asking the center to replace the mobile as the issue had not solved even on the software update, Mr. Ravi Kumar as Service Manager (Vigneshwar service) said that it cannot be replaced as it had crossed 7 days from the date of purchase. I would completely disagree to this as my date of purchase was 12th Jan 2014 and I had gone to the Sangeetha Showroom on 18th Jan wherein I had still had not completed my 7 days of purchase and went to Vigneshwar Services on 20th Jan 2014 the Monday considering 19th Jan 2014 was Sunday and the center was closed which can also be seen in the below screen capture from google which clearly states that Vigneshwar Services is closed on Sunday so how can my 7th day be Sunday. Also as per the policies of Sony and below link I can see that the policies of return are 7 working days which would remove 19th Jan being Sunday and 14th Jan being a public holiday on occasion of Makar Sakranti / Id-E-Milad which also ben seen in the screen captures below. Sony Return policies https://shop.sony-europe.com/catalog/52/529397F803A14340E10080002BC29BDF.htm#17_... I have sent this email to Sony multiple times but there is no response. I request your immediate action on this to resolve this issue. Thank you, Shwetha S

                  I purchased a 40'' colour Sony LED TV KDL-EX520 in Feb 2012. This was my first Sony product purchased and as I had heard a lot about Sony product quality I blindly bought the product. Now I am facing the vertical lines and distortion on the screen, when approached the customer care(complaint no[protected], they asked to do the Factory settings which I did but the problem still exists. Then an engineer came to inspect the TV. He told me that it was the display panel problem and which needs to be changed and the cost would be around Rs. 22000. I mean after paying so much price for a brand that claims to be of best quality I need to pay almost 40% of the TV cost within such short span o[censored]sage makes me think what do you define as quality. When I did some research on the internet on the product I found a lot of people facing this same problem and this to be a manufacturing defect (that explains why production of this model has stopped). One of the link for your ref: http://www.consumercourt.in/television/122614-sony-bravia-led-tv-panel-manufactu... I would request the concern authority to take immediate action on this and get my TV display panel replaced free of cost or replace the TV unit itself as 1. I don’t see any point in paying so much for repair purpose with such product, which already is having manufacturing defects. 2. What is the guarantee that after one year the panel does not fail or any other part does not work after the panel is changed, do you expect your customers to suffer and spend their hard earned money on your bad quality products. So please look into this matter as soon as possible, this is the least Customers of such Branded company which is so Pricey (because the products are of best quality) can expect from such a big reputed organization. I had even sent an email to sonyindia.[protected]@ap.sony.com on 28th Jan 2014 but haven’t received any response as yet.

                  The same problem is happened with my tv what happened with swati TV, I also have the same model EX520 SONY 40", that I purchased on April 2011. Just 2 days before my tv starts showing one color stripe on the top of the screen and when I registered my complain as complain no 18427005 one service engineer visits my house and declared that there is some issue with the panel and that has to be replaced with the new one for cost of INR 22000/-, I know this is the universal issue with this TV and lot people are suffering with the same problem with this unit, I really want sony to claim this TV back and either fix the issue or replace my product with another working one.
                  The same problem happen to my SONY LED TV EX520 model, Panel issue, I have sent many mails to SONY India to resolve this issue they are asking to pay RS 22, 000 to replace the panel, it's just 2 years old TV, how can pay such a huge amount, this is definitely a manufacture defect, I have requested to replace panel as a free of cost or at least give discount on panel or give 2 years warranty, but SONY is not agreed to any of requests, so now I am just keeping my TV as SHOW piece in my house and informing as many of my friends and relatives to not purchase any SONY brand televisions. They are making us to fools, why we need to pay more amount for this brand and such a bad products?
                  I am requesting you all to please think before purchase any Sony product.

                  Dear Friends,

                  Right now I am facing the same issue with my TV which was purchased in 2012 which you guys are discussing. How can we get this issue resolves??

                  Any suggestions??

                  Regads,
                  Rajesh
                  I have been facing exactly the same problem. This is ridiculous.
                  I'm facing the same problem, i bought the 46 inches Sony EX 520 TV in July 2011 for 86k and last week i have lines developing in the screen and on booking the complaint they asked me to approve 28k for panel replacement, This TV is a investment of 28k per year as on replacement of panel there is only 1 year warranty.

                  Imagine 3 yrs 86k and next 1 yr 28k...Sony team, do u want to make a direct debit in my bank account ??? it looks like a day robbery Instead of spending so much money I can buy a new LG/Samsung TV, hope Sony did not realize that, they think customers are fools.

                  SONY products in India really bad, they are not at all worth it to buy. I believe Samsung and LG are far better products with features than Sony. Anybody looking for new Sony TV, don't go for it, it would be worst customer service experience and the life of the TV will be like a lottery.

                  Sony products are of bad quality, I have purchased a LED tv 46 inches during July 2011. I have been very frequent traveler, so i use TV very rarely at my home. This TV costed me 86k with the salesman assurance of Sony TV lasting minimum 5 years as they are of best quality.

                  Now this TV have LED panel failed and there are vertical lines developed across the screen.

                  Now when checked with Sony care they say i have to pay 28k of fixing this problem which they say will last only for 1 year as per the warranty. This means the TV costs me around 28k every year. I don't think so sony will buy such products, customers already have lost credibility on the sony products especially Sony LED tv's

                  There are thousands of customers writing to consumer court forums, but the company is ignoring and not even replying.

                  The most arrogant part is that the customer service people send me an estimate for 20k in between and now they changing their words to 28k, hope this is how sony products are delivered too and the customer service is so atrocious.

                  check this mails below, Sony customer care giving estimate with clerical mistakes !!!

                  Hi Sushmitha,

                  It is disgusting that your product is costing me 30k per year (90k while i bought which worked only for 3 years) and now you are trying to sell me the low quality defective Sony LED panel again for 28k and on raising this issue it is being brought down to 20k with only 1 year warranty, shame on the Sony products and poor customer service. It very well proves that your product is of the worst quality and that to view this TV there costs me early maintenance cost of minimum 20k.

                  Noway i can spend a rupee on this defective product, as the model KDL 46EX520 seems to be a failure with most of the customers, you first have to prove the quality of your product rather ripping off customers money.

                  I NEED THIS PANEL REPLACED FREE OF COST, ELSE I WILL HAVE TO POST THESE EMAILS ON THE CONSUMER FORUM AND OTHER SONY TV REVIEW FORUMS, WILL MAKE SURE YOU LOOSE CUSTOMERS WHO ARE LOOKING FOR NEW SONY TV AND SONY INDIA WILL ALSO NOT SELL SUCH DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS IN FUTURE.

                  HOPE SONY HAS SOME BUSINESS ETIQUETTE, I FEEL CHEATED IN BUYING THIS SONY TV PRODUCT.

                  My Sony LED TV is 3 years old and there are vertical lines across the screen and on checking with the customer care they said i need to replace the panel which is 28k. I had hardly used this TV and seems to be no worth to change the panel as they again give me 1 year warranty. I don't have trust on this product.
                  I request all the blog users to share your email address and phone numbers so that we can raise this issue all together to the customer care/consumer court/ advocate notice.
                  I request everyone to mention the issue clearly (for example: panel issue with the model number)

                  I had a bought a Sony LED TV KDL-32EX520 IN5 in May 2011. Just after 4 years the LED panel went kaput. I see a lot of similar problems. Can we all come together. I had bought the TV for Rs 44900 and now I am being asked to shell out additional Rs 16000. I have opened a case on consumer forum.

                  I was told that LED display panel life is 100, 000 hours and min it goes for 10 years. I see that Sony contact person has written natural reasons which i do not understand. Only Sony Bravia TV goes in for natural reasons while others work normally is it. Can we all across cities come together and jointly put forward our issue.

                  Now each of you can open a case online in Jaago Grahak Jaago.
                  I am also facing the same Display problem, I bought the 40inches Sony EX 520 TV in Feb
                  2012. Please guide me how to solve the display issue.

                  I am facing same problem of Panel faulty. I think Sony has made fool of his valuable costumers, as all costumers having same problem with same product i, e, 40inches Sony EX 520 TV purchased in 2012. Perhaps all batch of this product is faulty. Sony company should resolve this problem on reasonable rates.

                  Same complaint here, panel isseu EX520 40inch..

                  Anybody got a favourable solution from Sony India yet? Or are we simply crying out loud here n wasting time?
                  The same problem happen to my SONY LED TV 40 EX520 model, Panel issue, I
                  have sent many mails to SONY India to resolve this issue they are asking
                  to pay RS 22, 000 to replace the panel, it's just 2.5 years old TV, how
                  can pay such a huge amount, this is definitely a manufacture defect, I
                  have requested to replace panel as a free of cost or at least give
                  discount on panel or give 3 years warranty, but SONY is not agreed to
                  any of requests, so now I am just keeping my TV as SHOW piece in my
                  house and informing as many of my friends and relatives to not purchase
                  any SONY brand televisions. They are making us to fools, why we need to
                  pay more amount for this brand and such a bad products?
                  I am requesting you all to please think before purchase any Sony product.

                  Regards
                  Santosh, pune.
                  The same problem happened with my Sony TV as well and the model is also same. This is kind of a defective model manufactured by sony. I am sure they have to pay the price for this and kindly advice me how to fight them legally ???
                  Hi, I am also facing the same problem. Sony is least bothered about customers. They are now having poorest quality of product. I purchased 32 inch Sony Bravia LED TV model Ex520 in June 2012 and within 18months of purchase, it started showing vertical lines on the display. Sony gave a quote of Rs. 15000 for repairing. It is more than 1/3rd cost of the product and in current market, I can purchase a brand new TV with warranty if I add few more thousands in this money. I can see there are lot of complaints against this model which shows there is some problem with the product itself hence Sony should replace all TVs of this model without any delay. If not, I have decided that I will never buy any Sony product in future. Sony customer care experience is also pathetic. I have products of LG and Samsung as well and their quality and services are superior than Sony then why we should put extra money in purchasing Sony products?
                  I do have the same problem, i bought SONY KDL 42 W 700 B in 2014 July, now it is only 18 months old and the warranty has also expired, my TV as got thin black horizontal lines on only left side of the panel, now the service center claims that i need to replace the panel which would cost me 23, 000.

                  after reading the above comments i now wonder if Sony makes panels which don't work out side the warranty period and it no more a worthy brand now.

                  i am really think instead of replacing a sony panel with 23000, which would only work for one year, why not i wil lgo ahead and buy a micromax LED TV with one year warranty at 25K. which i think may work better than sony.

                  Damaged Sony Laptop Vaio

                  Dear Sir, Please note that I brought Online Sony Laptop from Croma It's damaged for damages are not covered under warranty from as per sony rules. from croma people are not helping. Complaint No:[protected]
                  I purchased SONY TV Model no.KDL-42W700B on 04.04.2014. Within a period of 2 years LED panel gets damage by its own. Customer care is asking to pay an amount of Rs. 23060/- for replacement. From the various comments it has come to my notice it is a repetitive problem in almost all LED panel of SONY TV.

                  I suggest everyone not to buy SONY LED TV. It is better to purchase any low branded TV with low cost with 3-5 years LED panel warranty from Reliance Trend/other suitable store who is providing warranty for 3-5 years..

                  faulty dvd blu ray home theatre

                  the home theatre which we purchased in feb hardly worked for few hours and has not worked since. even after raising a service complaint it has not been serviced. even reliance digital mart from whom we purchased do not care
                  I too hav the same problem with this sony bravia 40 inch tv which i had purchased 2 yrs ago..noe the company has estimated 22000 for replacing the panel alone..Its really disgusting...very poor business tactics...
                  Hello Guys,

                  I am also facing the similar problem. I have purchased the KDL-EX520 on 2012 and now the display is flickering. Sony Guy visited and asked to replace which is costing ~16k. He said so many reasons for the screen issue like Voltage fluctuation (though I use good stabilizer) and using Pen drive etc (then why the hell they give those features). Until I see this blog I was thinking one of them would have caused the issue. But now it's clear that all BRAVIA model is like this. Very poor quality and didn't expect this from SONY. Just for the quality only we all spent almost 200% on purchasing a product which is available with the competitors in half the price (with more features as well). Now got cheated by this SONY.

                  Yes..I am agree with you. Same problem I am also facing. Technician of SONY care inspected my LED and told the pannel problem which needs to replace. Cost of the new pannel is Rs. 21000/- so huge amount. I had purchased in the year Jan 2012 at cost Rs.65000/- now after 4 and half years facing this problem.

                  Therefore We should every near and dear to avoid purchase of any SONY product. because for the brand name they are charging so huge amount but life of sony product is very less.

                  BETTER TO AVOID SONY PRODUCTS
                  I'm Das messaging with issues on Sony LED TV KDL-EX520 display panel.

                  I'm an NRI bought 40" LED TV on 2013 and now it's exactly 3 years finished. The technician visited and checked the set and gave estimate of 26K and he's telling if giving the job without informing the company he will source to get the item from outside for 24000 without invoice. The Sony INDIA doesn't have proper support services and perfect technical assistance. Please spread this message to avoid buying SONY PRODUCTS in future.

                  Even I used to buy same brands abroad, now started thinking to change my mind. Please be carful and I'm posting the same in all social medias to boycott this worst brand in India.

                  Regards

                  My issue is even worst. Sony doesnot has my TV panel and now wants to loot me.

                  I bought Sony Bravia 3D LED KDL 32 HX750 IN5 in Jan 2013. In Dec 2016, issue if double image of screen appeared. Sony Technician checked and gave estimate of Rs.16750/- for new panel which i was agreed to.

                  Now Sony calls and tells they don't have panel of my model and also no 3d TV in 32 inch. So they said, I should pay Rs.34000 to get a 3D 43 inch TV. Else pay Rs.16750 and get a non 3D 32 inch TV whose online price is Rs.33500/-.

                  Its a joke; After paying 50000 now again pay 34000/- in 3 years i.e. 75% of cost. I have a blue ray player and hence no choice but to buy a 3D TV. Its a Sony issue if they don't have a panel or a 3D TV in 32inch. why should i pay 75% of amount again after 3 years?

                  As per consumer court order, all companies have to keep all input materials with them till the useful life of the product. Now Sony people are acting adamant and bullying either I pay Rs.34000 or keep faulty TV at home. They are not gonna do anything.

                  How unfair is such a conduct from a brand like Sony??

                  dont trust sony ---
                  Referring to all above communications I must say we all are fooled by following SONY as a brand. I too have KDL 32 EX550 and same double image problem has aroused. Upon visit of service center person, without checking anything he claimed that panel is gone and need to be replaced with cost of 14000/-. And he charged his so called visit also as 200/-.
                  I condemn SONY as a brand hereafter and will not purchase a single rupee worth material.
                  P.S. my TV has samsung panel fitted inside. I want SONY to make notice of it.
                  I am also facing the same Display problem, I bought the 40 inches Sony EX 520 TV in 2011.
                  Please Tell me how to solve the display issue.

                  Sony LED tv is very bad

                  please ban Sony products in India market.
                  Hello,
                  I have Purchased Sony 40'' Sony LED TV KDL-EX520 in Feb 2011. Now i have got the Display panel problem
                  which will cost 22000 to get repaired. As i have seen in the forum this problem is common for all the Sony Led TVs and its a defect problem for all the Sony Models which need to be addressed by Sony. I am ready to go to the consumer court and file case against the company.

                  With regards

                  I too had bought Sony TV Model - KLV 32R482B and just within 3 years technical engineer says that the Display panel needs to be changed. With proper care being taken of the TV how such costly display panels get malfunctioned within few years of service. It brings a big question on the quality of TV units being sold by SONY in India. And after seeing such huge number of complaints I have started doubting on the SONY TV Display Panels, definitely not up to the mark when looking at the overall TV prices.

                  I had purchased sony 40 inch LED tv 2.5 yrs ago and am also facing the display panel issues whose price seems to be of 22000 rs...The display panel should have been covered under 5 years of warranty atleast. Also I can see the same problem with many people with no help from sony.

                  Please dony buy the product.
                  Dear Friends,

                  Me too facing the same problem as said above... We experience the worst consumer service by sony authority... The products produced by the sony india is never qorth money... As ler my experience with sony i'll never recomend any of their product to well known persons... They are actully missusing their brand name.. We have lost money on buying this tv... Shame on you...✌
                  I purchased Sony Bravia KDL-40EX520 IN5 (chasis no. 2456648) on 06.10.2011 for Rs 64, 900/-. During Dec2014, I started facing problems of yellow lines on the screen. Sony service center at Mumbai asked to change the panel for Rs 21, 732/- I changed it on 12.01.2015 (Bill No. J4/FY14-01/003264 Part No.[protected]. Now again in the month of March 2018, I am facing similar issue of yellow lines on the display panel and picture like negatives. Now after going through all the complaints above, I understand that this is a manufacturing defect and hence the company had discontinued its failed product. Standard practice is to recall all such faulty units and replace with the rectified one. But it seems SONY is trying to make profit even with the faulty products. If SONY is not responding to it, then atleast let us write to the Japanese Govt. as to how their company is cheating the customers in other countries (they boast of high standard of customer satisfaction.) so that they understand their real standard.

                  I am also facing the display panel problem with my 32 inch Sony KDL-32EX520 full HD TV which I had purchased in Yr 2012. Sony is unresponsive to my complaint which was lodged a month ago. Same tenure TVs of other brands like Samsung & LG are working absolutely fine at my neighbourhood. It is thus evident that Sony products are not only expensive but also inferior to compititive brands like Samsung, LG etc.

                  Comments from Sony India Ltd. is invited in this regard.

                      Hi everyone in this forum...

                      kindly look into the conversation between Sony and myself for the display panel problem..I was fighting for more than a week for the same, I could not get a favourable reply from SONY yet

                      20-Jan-2014: To SONY INDIA (Mail no 1)

                      From: me
                      To: "SonyCare" <Sonyindia.[protected]@ap.sony.com>
                      Date: Jan 20, 2014

                      We purchased Sony LED TV (Model: KDL-32EX420IN5, Serial No: 2441948) on 29th Dec 2011. We installed the TV in our house with a separate electric circuit and external stabilizer. We also made sure that the TV is fully adult-controlled.

                      The problem arose on 13th Jan 2014, when the TV suddenly lost its display. It showed a symptom of vertical contour patterns. But the audio remained intact. We applied for service request immediately on the same day (Service Request No:[protected]. The service engineer inspected the TV on 18th Jan 2014 and inferred that the display panel is to be completely replaced which would cost around 40% of the original price of the set. We assume that an LED TV display has a life-time of (ave) 60, 000 to 1, 00, 000 hour. In our case, it had not even crossed 3700 h (ave). We could not understand such a variation in performance happening with Sony product.

                      Since the TV was well protected in every aspect from our side, we are sure that the problem was not due to any negligence in our support and operation. I came across reviews describing gross manufacturing defects in Sony LED and LCD TVs. We also found that you solved the disputes in favour of the consumer in most of the cases that were beyond the warranty period. We have always had good opinion and trust in Sony products because of the quality and brand. We hope to receive similar support from your side in our case too.

                      We are very much aware that the warranty period is 1 year from the date of purchase and our TV had finished 2 years and 14 days exactly. But, since there was no physical damage or operational negligence from our side, it is not just for Sony to make us carry the burden of replacing the display panel at our own cost.

                      We request you to replace this TV set with a new, operable one. Even if it is going to be of higher rate, we shall very well pay only the remaining amount and buy it. Else, kindly make sure that you replace the LED display panel free of cost.

                      Thank you,

                      Sankara C R



                      NB: We have already furnished photocopies of the following documents to the service engineer: 1. Warranty card; 2. Invoice. And, e-mailed the screen shot of the defective TV image to [email][protected]@bsnl.in[/email]

                      21-Jan-2014: To SONY INDIA (Mail no 2)

                      From: me
                      To: "SonyCare" <Sonyindia.[protected]@ap.sony.com>
                      Date: Jan 21, 2014

                      Your reply to my mail clearly reflects that you have not gone through the entire content of my mail. I myself am aware about the warranty period of the LED TV. I know that the repair/replacements are possible within a year of purchase. It is because that the limit had been crossed by 12 months time that I am sending you the request.

                      “Natural Electronic defect may happen in the Electronic products, in the course of time.” This is absolutely atrocious and irresponsible reply. I have informed you that I have provided all the necessary security systems that are required for the proper functioning of the TV. Inspite of such accessories if the TV gets faulted, the above-said reason cannot be accepted. The product is having gross manufacturing defect, that was the only fault and I shall not accept anything less than a complete replacement of the display panel free of cost.

                      Kindly refer to: h t t p : // e sup port.sony.com/p/news-it em.pl?template=EN%C2%AEion_id=1&news_id=441]Sony eSupp ort - Electronics - News & Ale rts. I know the VP had addressed the problem with 40” TV, but in my opinion, the same can now be applied for any of your TVs.

                      Also refer: h t t p : // ww w. c on sumercourt.in/television/34377-sony-bravia-lcd-problem-2. h t m l (complaint no.15040079‏). After reading the entire blog, do you still hold your point that every one had a Natural Electronic Defect? If you still hold ‘yes’, it surely infers that “Defective Sony Products” are marketed in India for bigger price due to brand name alone.

                      I am expressing my thoughts and request not to approve your estimate of repairing/replacing my LED display panel at my own cost, but to make sure that you rectify this issue by taking the full responsibility. I have also mentioned in my last mail that, “even if it is going to be of higher rate, we shall very well pay only the remaining amount and buy it. Else, kindly make sure that you replace the LED display panel free of cost.”

                      I am not in a position to understand the solution that you have provided. Kindly make sure that my obligations are considered with good results.

                      A same kind of display panel problem for Bravia series was faced by another customer (complaint no.15040079‏) where the defective TV was 22 months old, we also found that you solved the disputes in favour of the consumer that were beyond the warranty period.

                      On 25th September 2013, SONY approved to replace the LCD panel FREE of cost for the TV purchased on 15-Oct-2011 for the Consumer Saikat Ganguly, pls refer (complaint no.[protected] h t t p : // ww w.cons um ercourt.in/television/34377-sony-bravia-lcd-problem-2 . h t m l

                      As my defective TV was 24 months, I am sending you the request. The problem was solved for 22 months TV, why don’t the management consider and solve the issue for 24 months TV? I hope my obligations are considered with good results

                      I am expressing my thoughts and request not to approve your estimate of repairing/replacing my LED display panel at my own cost, but to make sure that you rectify this issue by taking the full responsibility.

                      I have also mentioned in my last mail that, “even if it is going to be of higher rate, we shall very well pay only the remaining amount and buy a new TV. Else, kindly make sure that you replace the LED display panel free of cost”.

                      I got same sort of mail twice from regional customer relation-Chennai, sending an automated email and same content without looking into the issue and understanding the feeling from customer side. Thereafter no reply for my concern for my last mail. (Pls see the attached document)

                      There will be few months warranty for the new Panel even after getting it replaced. This is very bad. And apart from this if we go for replacements than what is the guarantee that the panel will not go bad again after few months warranty.

                      It means every year we should spend huge amount for service alone that too only for the manufacturing defect from your side and also poor quality?

                      Because we became SONY customers we should suffer every year? What is the solution?

                      Is this business etiquette?

                      What is the favour you do for your customers?

                      Dear Concerned,

                      Spending 40% of the original cost is too much money to be spent by me, belonging to a middle-class family, within a short period of buying my TV.

                      Thus, in spite of providing free service or product replacement, I wish and request that you consider giving the service at a discounted price in addition to the 1 year warranty that you have acknowledged.

                      I think that you will do a favor in this regard after such series of conversations that had been taking place for the past 7 days.

                      Thank you for understanding.

                      Warm regards

                      Do SONY have any measurement for the said reason? “Natural failure may happen in a product is course of time.” The service engineer don’t even open up the TV. By just looking the TV without open up, I was surprised by the above comments and I completely agree that the quality of Sony product has been completely degraded. I have mentioned in my earlier mails that all the necessary security systems that are required for the proper functioning of the TV were provided.

                      I also mentioned in my earlier mail communications that If Sony still hold ‘yes’ for their atrocious reply “Natural electronic defect”, it surely infers that one and only “Defective SONY Products” are marketed in India for bigger price due to brand name alone.

                      When I went through the numerous open forums, there were too much similar type of Display panel complaints especially in SONY BRAVIA series and they people sending similar type of automatic reply. This is a universal problem with BRAVIA series and SONY recalled these units all over the world except INDIA. Even though SONY know very well this as a GLOBAL issue, by hiding their manufacturing defect and useless quality, SONY management decently refused to accept consumers True feedback about the non reliable SONY faulty products and worst kind of services. This is so called veiled CHEATING.

                      Hiding the above facts, Sony customer relation keep on writing the same point without knowing how to indicate a valid reason, this itself clearly reflects a negative thought about SONY.

                      SONY meant to say that they don’t receive/ hear any feedback about their defective TV? It won’t bring to their higher authorities notice? they don’t have any awareness? they don’t understand the screaming from customer’s side? Or they are not able to access those numerous forums? Why be a hypocrite?

                      Rather SONY always just makes customers to carry the burden of service at our own cost especially in India…! If SONY do so, theywon’t stay longer to retain Indian market in future especially Bravia Television.

                      People in this forum would just spread the awareness across the nation.

                      We take the burden of service at our own cost for the reason “fate of being as one of the SONY customer……!” As Indians we cant expect any product exchange, service for free of cost or discounted service in spite SONY can give you additional 1 year service warranty from the date of service.

                      Is this business etiquette?

                        i would like to complain of one of the service centers of sony india pvt ltd. i bought my sony digi camera in decemeber 2011 with 3 year of warranty but suddenly after 6 months it has started giving me problems of like lens, zoom issue, flash issue etc.. so in order to get this repaired i went to one of service centres of sony india ( Boscos) at malviya nagar new delhi on 14th may 2012 . where they took my camera for repairing and after couple of days i got a call from them that this cannot be repaired under warranty as the camera had gone under water. and they have given me estimate of 2500 approx. so i asked them not to repair it. Then I put my decision on hold and after 3 months on 1/08/2012 when i did not find any alternative to get this repaired under warranty i left with no choice or went again to them to get this repaired without warranty. this time they started asking me for 3500. i again said i dont want to repair this and will collect from after couple of days. even i clearly said them "NO" inspite of that they repaired it and when i went to collect it they said it was our executive fault who did not listed you correctly so they waive off some 500 Rs. and took 3000 from me for which i did not ask them to repair. then after couple of months it again started giving me the same issues. they again said now we will again charge you 3500. i again said pls return my set i dont want to get this repair. Till this moment i have been facing this from BOSCOS at malviya nagar

                        one day i went to chandigarh where i visited the sony service center at sector 34. without asking for the bill they checked all the information online and got to know this set is under warranty. and they repaired it without asking for single penny.

                        I am shocked to see that both were company's service outlets but the policies and approach were having lot of difference

                        if one service out let has denied to repair this without warranty and already charged me heavy amount of money then how come other service out let of the same company can repair the same problem without charging any thing

                                  Hello, I am a privileged customer of Sony since I own all the consumer products of your brand. I bought a new HI FI Audio system model: MHC-GZR-5D, dated 27th Jan 2013. After buying, within a month it started problem like it was not at all switching on. And with in 8 months, 4 times it was given for service (Twice it was taken to service station and twice they came home and got it repaired and I have all the details with me). And now since from one month it is lying in service station and no one is taking the responsibility. My parents are old and I stay in Bangalore. I do not want that set back. Request you to please replace the model Or replace with a higher model and I am ready to pay the remaining extra money for it. But I dont want this set back wich is already scrapped by Sony service people. I am deeply disheartened by Sony's service. The shop which I purchased was Prabhat World. He cares hell after the product is purchased. The ultimate sufferers are the customer like me. I request you to take this issue and do the needful Many Thanks, Vasanth Paul J S/O S.P. Jayaseelan.

                                    I recently have bought a Sony Viao Laptop which is bearly 2 months old and the performance of the same in terms of speed, processing is absolutely poor.I really feel as though I am using a 2 year old system and its now given me an experience that would neven allow my mind to go in for a Sony product. When we buy sony as a brand we normally pay high for a better quality and performance but I guess the same does not exists at all.Even the key pad especially the space bar from day 1 has not been working well. Really Sony needs to get more serious on their products performance. Kiran Dua [protected]@gmail.com

                                      I had purchased a Sony Ericsson Neo V on 07/April/2012 from UniverCell, Jayanagar, Bangalore store, after using the mobile for 18 months I face the restart problem with my handset, I rushed to Sony Service Centre and they said First I went to Sony Service Centre, Bangalore to repair it, they did a very poor inspection whereas I specifically mention that "If I am using Airtel SIM Card its getting restart, and I specifically mentioned them that please check with SIM Card, but they didn't check with the SIM Card, and they called me next day saying "Your mobile is ready you can take". But when I went to the service centre to collect the handset, I found the same issue with my handset, which really made me harassed, again I said they to check with SIM Card properly." After checking with Tata DoCoMo SIM Card they said it is proper with Tata DoCoMo SIM Card but not with Airtel, so I called up Airtel Service Centre and spoke about the issue, they said “They produce homogeneous product throughout market”. Even it is a fact that there are some issue with the Handset not with the SIM Card, if not then how the Airtel SIM Card is working in other companies Handset, why not only in my handset Sony Ericsson Neo V? Next day again they called me and said only Tata DoCoMo SIM Card is working in Handset but any other SIM Card is not working. The person who called me she said that "you have inserted a wrong SIM Card, my Question is what her mean by wrong SIM Card is?”. After a discussion she mentioned that “They have to change the mother board which cost me INR 9, 000". Do you think that INR 9, 000 to spend on a handset which I brought on INR 18, 550, as I know motherboard is a vital part of the Handset, I am surprised that how come the motherboard is spoiled in 18 month of duration? Major part of the cost to manufacture a handset is associated with motherboard, when you are spending major cost with motherboard why it is having a short period of longevity? Due to this consequence I lost many contact number and important business data from my handset, it is my humble request to go through the issue and take an appropriate action as soon as possible. Please be informed that they must repair my handset without changing the motherboard, if changing the motherboard is only solution I am not going to pay any price associated with it. I am very much disappointed with the service and product. I had an excellent belief on Sony Company. Please follow the respective address: Handset purchased from: UniverCell, No-1820, 41st Cross, 25th Main, Jayanagar, Bangalore. Sony Service Centre: 235/12, Suraj Centre, Ground Floor, 27th Cross, 7th Block, Jayanagar, Bangalore, Karnataka, India, 560082 Hand Set Details: Model No: MT11i, service ticket ID [protected], From past 20 days I am waiting there proper response but no one is bother about it.

                                        Hi have got Sony Xperia L having model number C2104. The handset is still under warranty. I bought the same in October 13 month. On the handset screen under call logs, there are some logs from which the last number got skipped. Screen only shows the 9 digits and the 10th digits faded out. I contacted the Sony service center located at Mahatre bridge, Kothrud, they submitted the handset for 2 days, but after 2 days the issue was still there. After that they again submitted the handset for 10 days, and according to them they replaced the motherboard of the handset, which according to them should resolve the issue, but after using the handset, issue again arises. I don't know, its 2 times now that i have submitted the handset in service center, and what i can assume is they don't even test the handset before delivering to customer. Now again i need to go to service center and have to submit my handset, and again it will going to take about 10-15 days, but i don't have any guarantee that the issue will resolve now. Can you please suggest me what should i do to get my issue resolved.
