I BOUGHT A NEW LAPTOP JUST TWO DAYS BEFORE DIWALI IN 2011, IMMEDIATELY AFTER 3 DAYS I NOTICED THAT ITS CD-ROM WAS NOT WORKING WHICH WAS DULY CHANGED BY THE COMPANY BUT SINCE LAST 2 MONTHS I AM FACING HANGING & NET CONNECTIVITY PROBLEM FOR WHICH THE SERVICE CENTER HAS TWICE FORMATTED MY LAPPY BUT THE PROBLEM STILL REMAINS THE SAME. NOW THE SERVICE CENTER IS AGAIN SAYING FOR FORMATTING THE LAPPY BUT NOT SURE THAT THE PROBLEM WILL BW CURED OR NOT. UNABLE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT TO DO & TILL WHEN I WILL HAVE TO CARRY MY LAPPY TO THE SERVICE CENTER AGAIN & AGAIN.

Hello Sir/Madam,
This is a complaint regarding a yendo model that i had bought in november 2011. The IMEI is[protected]. I had bought it from MNM Trading Solution Private Limited(Pataudi district, Gurgaon) on 20th November 2011. The invoice no. is[protected].
The phone keeps getting hang, it vibrates even when there is no message/call, it switches off on its own. Sometimes when the phone vibrates, it continues to vibrate for 5 minutes! I had given the phone for servicing but the same night, it again got switched off on its own. I am fed up of this phone. I am fed of changing my handset again and again. It's very irritating.
I have taken this phone to the service centre twice but the problem still persists. The second time, they had not even recorded my visit. I had even asked to give me a letter(jobsheet or whatever) with the details of what they had done. But they refused to give me saying that they do not give it in case of just software updates. It is not possible for me to go again and again to the centre as it is not even close to my place.
I had asked the service centre people if this problem can be fixed permanently and if the handset can be replaced as the problem is inbuilt but they had refused.
Also, i have heard that there is a problem with the entire handset lot. I have showed this model to many shopkeepers(Sony ericsson dealers) and they all said that the entire yendo lot is faulty. All the handsets have some problem. I know another person who has this model and she also faces the same problem. You can cross-check this information. There is problem with all the yendo handsets.

So I do not want a new handset. I want another phone. I am fine if it will be of a lesser price than this one(I had bought this for Rs.5,000) but kindly do something. Please find a proper solution. I have wasted my 5,000 rupees but i cannot afford to do so.

I request you to kindly look into this matter.

Respected Authority

I have purchased a Sony Ericsson mobile phone, model W8 (E16i, IMEI No:[protected] from an authorized retail dealer M/s Mobily, TC 26/95, Statue, Trivandrum, Kerala) on 8th September, 2011 (Bill/Invoice No:- 006743 dated 08/09/2011). The mobile phone was fixed with screen guard protector by the retailer at the time of purchase and it was used with utmost care.

Within a couple of months itself it began to perform abnormally in many ways. First of all the menu icons began to shift its position by its own. Then the phone unlock had to be tried several times to get it unlocked. After that the incoming call, answering and cancel began to function improperly.

At last the total functioning of the mobile went out of control by getting stuck and working only very occasionally. This made me mentally harassed by not able to attend or make calls in time, even in emergencies too. Thus carrying this phone along with me does not serve the purpose for which it was purchased, with great expectations. I do suspect its genuineness or a defect from the stage of manufacturing with poor quality components as it became out of order within a short period of four (4) months and a few days o[censored]sage.

It was taken to the services on 21st January, 2012 and the Sony Ericsson authorized service center, Prompt Services, TC 2/2410(2), Pattom, Trivandrum, Kerala admitted that the Touch Panel is out of order and it have to be replaced for making it normal which will take two (2) weeks to get it rectified (Work order No. SE312PS110386 dated 21/01/2012). Servicing a phone within such a short period and to replace the most sensitive part of it makes me to suspect, how long can it be used again, after the service.

The difficulties and inconvenience caused so far and the long wait of two weeks without a phone was uncontrollable, which was intimated to the company Sony Ericsson – India, through their on line complaint logging forums (Reference No.s 92216571/ 92218193 / RMS Ticket Number : SES[protected] dated 22/01/2012) and asked for their authorized representative to contact me in person to make arrangements to refund the amount of Rupees Nine Thousand Nine Hundred and Ninety Five only (Rs. 9995/00) at the earliest.

The company never responded directly, instead they instructed the service centre to intimate me, that it shall be repaired and returned back with immediate steps. As I lost belief on Sony Ericsson and their consumer products, I request the Indian Consumer Complaints Forum to intervene and settle my dispute at the earliest.

With the hope of acting favorably.

I had purchased a laptop from Calcutta (South City Mall) on the 19th December 2011. Model; PCG-71811W,
PRODUCT NAME: VPCEH25EN. I had returned home to Asansol and within a day or two the cursor bad started to
malfunction it would hang.Then the wireless would get disconnected while surfing the net, even the logo at the bottom would disappear.Now if I shut down the system and restart it it would all work normally like nothing ever happened but again after a little while it would happen again.This is very annoying.So I took it down to the service station and and gave them my complaint. They kept if for the day and told me its fine now you won't have a problem.Well then I took it home and the after a while it would start its old tricks once again.So again I took it back to the service and repeated my problem, they said ok you leave it here we will call you when its ready.They call me and I check the set out its working fine again.Anyways I brought it back home and it worked fine the whole day but the next day I started it up and within half an hour the same problem occurred.Now I am tired of this nonsense so I've packed the LAPTOP in its bag and put it away, Since then its been more that a week I have not used it and may be I will never use it again. I have a old desk top which works well and is now helping me out. *** Note during purchase time one would get all the assurance from the Sony store. Once sold Forget it no replacement. Its your headache now use it or throw it away its not my concern !!!

Recently I purchased Sony ericsson make mobile phone yendo W150i. but after using it for few month I found that phone is getting hang frequently and also I am unable to play music files and whenever I try to open any music file mobile gets restarted. This is very annoying and the memory card card in the phone is not showing any data which is there in memory card, neither it is showing free memory available in that memory card, but when that same phone is connected to the laptop or any other device that it is showing the data of memory card. I tried calling helpline number of Sony but they said helpline number change and they gave me new helpline number, when I tried calling in new helpline number than auto voice again say the same thing that helpline number has change and this is the new helpline number. I am tired of calling then and even locating the service centre of Sony but I am not able to trace anything
Please replace the phone with any other model in its range or please refund the money...

POOR – SERVICE
Sony Fails to solve my Home Theater HDMI Cable Problem.
I purchased a Sony Home Theater from Sony Center Road No.12, MLA Colony, Banjara Hills-34. On dated[protected].
Defect in HDMI Cable, I un plug the HDMI Cable from the Home Theater system to shift it. To my surprise the HDMI Cable came of HDMI Port the port was struck in the Home Theater System. I complaint to the Sony dealer , they asked me to contact Sony Service Center. The technician visited on dated[protected]. I noticed that the cable is a local one. I spoke to the service center manager he asked the technician to bring the wire along with the port to the service center.
In spit of making umpteen calls the manager did not response since two months I brought the notice and the service center manager remains incommunicado. No way to check genuineness of parts, no warranty on parts.
I request Sony Company to look into the redressel of costumer grievances. An early replacement of cable is appreciated.

Sony, people are so proud of owning product of SONY. But I am not! Ask me why? Bravia LCD TV, the purchase of which has caused agony and harassment to my family members for last 13 days. Barely 3 months have passed, I had purchased Sony Bravia Model Name: KLV-32CX32D on 18 Oct 11 from Anant Electronics, Itarsi. While in use it went off at 1500h on 11 Jan 12. Till date neither TV has been replaced by so called SONY nor part replaced. You can imagine the capability of this Co. Why should one go for this Brand if it cannot provide after sale services.
E-mail was sent at sonyindia.[protected]@ap.sony.com on 12 Jan and dealer was informed on 11 Jan. Mr Datta, Senior most service provider person was contacted at Indore. He apprised that part is not available in India. It will have to be brought from Singapore. He was politely requested to replace but he didn't agree.He has not picked up my call for last 3 days.
TV is basic necessity of life and SONY INDIA has debarred us from source of entertainment to self & family members for last 13 days and some more days to come. This is just a mental harassment & agony caused by after sales service within warranty period of the so called Sony India.
Therefore, I am approaching you to please help this serving solider and compel the company to pay the compensation for mental harassment and agony and replace the TV at the earliest possible.

my sony vaio VGN-CS24GH laptop keyboard keys are not working properly...so,please give me suggestions about this problem

Sir,

I have purchase SONY LCD TV from Sri Thilack Furniture, last year 13 Jan 2011,
from 15 DEC 2011, we are facing the display problem, we registered complaint through customer care, Sony people came and told, this display problem will not cover under warranty, so you may service the TV against chargeable base, i debated the TV is under warranty period, why should i pay for this problem, then they are telling that this problem due to damage on the panel, so this service against chargeable only, then i asked that then please show me the external physical damage, then they replayed that. the outer panel is not damaged, but the inside LCD panel damage, so you need to do this against chargeable bases only,

And they are are telling the we are offering only One warranty, if you want more life for your TV, you please don't go for LCD TV buy picture tube TV, if it is the case they should tel before buying the TV??

Here with i am enclosing the photo and email received from the customer care department people,

and also this display problem is not on day, is keeps on developing, starts with line mark, this photo is taken by the Sony people,
past two weeks there is no power, coming Wednesday i can paste the latest photo for your reference.

I bought two batteries of Model no. NH AA B2FN from your shop vide invoice no.026634 dt 08.08.2011 for Rs.440.

I had charged it for initial charging using the Sony charger supplied with Sony Camera PS D32. When I started using with the camera it is not backing up and it only last for five or six shots with flash. it is worsened on subsequent charging and usage. I was compelled to use professional photographer’s service for the function and deepavali. Further I suffered mental agony for buying a reputed product from authorized source.

When I approached you with the complaint for redress on 31.10.2011, your uncaring attitude and rude behavior raises the doubt on the genuineness of the batteries as well on your customer service. I sent one NOTICE dated 02.11.2011 to you and your principal M/s.SONY.

On receipt of that Notice personnel from Sony called me (from 28242576,[protected] twice on 07.11.2011 and told me that someone from your office will call and collect the defective batteries for the process of complaint. But nobody called from your office or there is no follow-up from you and your principals from thereon.

Hi,

I'm using Xperia X8 with an Android version of 2.1, When i visited your local service center at Visakhapatnam's I've asked them if there is an upgrade of android version of 2.3 in the marker, they said 2.3 version not yet released in the market. but when i went to get a new handset, I've seen a handset with 2.3 version (Xperia Tm mini pro). I was shocked why i got an answer of no from your people.

Now please let me know whether i can update my Xperia X8 to 2.3 version of android ?

Regards,
Suresh.

My final Question is to the Sony Authority that i purchase a mobile costing Rs.17,465 if there is any manufacturing problem arisen with in 15 days.we have not any special concession.You just sale the the product and through your customer in the hell.

Please do the needful and give my handset as early as possible.
