Sony India Complaints & Reviews

I'm Biswanath & i have purchased one Sony Bravia LCD on 30.09.2011 whose Model No. is KLV - 32BX320 IN5 & Serial No. is 7038321. But from 14.10.2011 one horizontal
very thin red line appears at the top of the screen. We call our dealer to check the problem. He said contact to Sony service center. I had complained to your service center via lodge no. 8444389. They send a service man & after checking he said that it 's Panel Board got a problem. Then he suggest that total Panel Board along with LCD screen have to be replace. Again we call our dealer to change the whole set. But he denied.
Then what is meant for a dealer? He has no responsibility. Only I, the buyer ( Sufferer) will contact the Manufacturer. What a business policy? This is only possible because we are living in a Third World Country. There are no strong law to protect us from being cheated.
A main part of the set required a change within 15 Days!!!!!!!
It's Shocking to us !
As an user, think what is our mental situation.
Then what is the difference between Sony & the rest of It's competitor???
I'm just asking you is that meant SONY Bravia to us?
What about it's Brand Value?
What are your Quality Control Department doing?
They release a defective piece set in the market not even checking it.

In the year 2009, I bought one LCD Model No. KLV-26S400A which immediately started giving me trouble. It has been taking time to getting switched on. Finally I made a complaint on[protected] vide complaint No. 8164886 and got no response. Thereafter again I made a complaint on[protected] vide complaint No. 8206695.

After six days of my complaint the LCD has lifted by some uneducated man and thereafter I received a message over phone that some board needs to be replaced for which I have to pay Rs.7228/- and on[protected], after 3 weeks of my complaint, a man visited to my home and collected advance cheque for Rs.7228/-against profoma invoice.

As on today[protected] I am really surprised even after taking the advance repair charges of Rs.7228/- just for a minor complaint SONY has already taken one month and my LCD has not been delivered me back.

I do not know whom I should approach. Or should I go for FIR against SONY.

w 395 walkman series bought nearly 1 1/2 years back now with mother board complaint. Contacted authoruised service centre ACCEL in kochi and they said Rs.3000/ for repairing. what can be done in this regard? contact no is [protected].

I had registered a complaint in Sony's Toll Free number regarding a defect in my LCD TV on 20th SEPTEMBER 2011. Colored lines are appearing on the TV. The complaint no. is 8014255. The TV was taken from by home after 2-3 days from the date of registration of complaint. One month has elapsed after registering the complaint. Sony's service department has not rectified the problem till now. Whenever they are being contacted they reply in an indifferent attitude. And they have been telling that they have not received the required part of the TV. I wonder how any product can sustain in the market with this kind of product support. A product is only as good as the support given by the company. Now i regret for buying a Sony product.

I bought a MDR-EX50LP ear-phone from the Sony-World in Jayanagar on 4th of April 2011. One side channel of the same stopped working after 4 months. I walked into the Sony Authorized Service Centre (RMS Technologies Pvt Ltd, Jayanagar) and submitted the same on 27th Aug-2011. They said they will check with the Sony main office and let me know soon on the status(repair or replacement) soon. After a week when I went back and checked with them, they told me that it will be replaced and asked me to come and collect the set the subsequent week.
After this, I have visited the Service Centre twice and have called them every week for the last 5 weeks. First 2 weeks, I was told that the set is on the way and was asked to come back next week. The last 3 weeks, I have been told that the set is not in stock and they are trying to procure the same and again asked to come the next week.
Last week, after waiting for more than 5 weeks, I called up the Sony India Hotline[protected] on Saturday, 1st Oct-2011 and I registered the complaint and I was told that somebody from Sony will get in touch with me by end of the day, Monday. I waited for the call until Thursday and on no response from Sony, I called up the hotline again on thursday. I was told that it is a holiday on thursday and the status of the complaint has been raised to Urgent and somebody will call me by Friday, 6th Oct 2011. Until now, 12th Oct 2011, I have not received any calls from Sony. Neither have I received any call from the service centre. In all these 45 days, I have called them up at least 10 times and visited the service centre 4 times and I have not received one proactive call from them. This is the worst customer service that I have seen until now. Even though the earphone set only costs about Rs 900, but this is not the kind of service one expects from Sony. The details of the complaint are below:

Name: Rohit B
Job No: WS[protected]
Serial No: NA
Model No: MDR-EX50LPBQIN

In the year 2009, I bought one LCD Model No. KLV-26S400A which immediately started giving me trouble. It has been taking time to getting switched on. Finally I made a complaint on[protected] vide complaint No. 8164886 and got no response. Thereafter again I made a complaint on[protected] vide complaint No. 8206695.

After six days of complaint, I received a phone call and message that some board needs to be replaced for which I have to pay Rs.7286/- Still from[protected] to[protected]almost 18days) I have not received no information that when my LCD will be repaired and delivered back to me.
I am really surprised that for just a minor complaint SONY takes weeks together. The amount informed me Rs.7286/- is pinching me. If this is the performance of SONY product, I would be better if purchase a new local TV which can come for less than Rs.7286/-

Now as on today almost 25 days has passed and my LCD has not been repaired and returned back to me. I am unable to know that:
1. As to Why my LCD has not been repaired so far???
2. Is SONY is so third class company that it takes more than FOUR WEEKS to repair a LCD.
3. Can I know the name and mobile no. of top man whom I can speak directly.
4. Who will pay to me for the inconveniences caused to me for poor response.

I have bought sony zylo w20 10 months before, on purchasing itself i got a private informtion about this hand set (told that after 6 months all the function keys will be disabled) but did not care about this information, now i am experiencing the fault of the keys not able to switch off or switch on the mobile. Now the my set was dead Rs.7600/- ello ellu.

Sony is a big competitor company so these fault sets are in market are nothing for the company, i think the sony is going to beg from customers by selling the manufacture fault sets to indians. And eating the indians money.


Nothing to say sony has poor batterup known thing, now poor manufacture without testing selling the products with the highly talantable sales persons.

keep it up sony.

Soon you will vanish in the Indian market.

On 13th July 2011 I visited Sony Digital Kiosk at City Center –I, Shop No.F003, Salt LakeSector-1, Kolkata-64, and purchased a DVD Player (vide INV.No.CM/SL/S/93 dt.13.07.2011.
On earlier occasion I purchased a CD Radio Cassette Player Model No.CFD-507CP/B from the same showroom and also a SONY BRAVIA EX 300 TV from another showroom.
I had some queries regarding your products. Here I meet a salesman who was later identified himself as Mr. Biswajit Das. I informed him that I am facing some problem regarding sound in the T.V. set. Mr. Das suddenly stated that Sony T.V. has certain technical problem regarding sound. I am highly astonished to know that a leading brand like SONY is having such technical fault. But Mr. Das started arguing in a very rude way. I noticed that he does not know how to deal with the customers and requested him to behave properly. Unfortunately he suddenly started shouting and told that he is working for more than (05) five years and does not dare anyone even if this matter is informed to higher officials.
I told him that I have purchased a CD Radio Cassette Player from the same showroom and requested him to stamp the warranty card since it was not stamped during purchase. Here again Mr. Das started arguing that Sony does sell CD Player. I should first know that the nomenclature of the product is Compact Disc and not CD Player.
From the above occasions it is quite apparent that Mr. Biswajit Das is having certain attitude problem which is quite unexpected from a sales person of such a reputed brand like SONY. I expect proper action from your end.

My Sony Ericsson ST15i(IMEI : [protected]) was purchased from
Ganpati Mobiles [G-17-18 Ground floor Sri Ram Tower ,13,Ashok Marg Lucknow(email: ganpati.[protected]@gmail.com) (mobile: [protected]) ] on 06.09.2011.

Within a few weeks the phone's vibrator malfunctioned and it started vibrating on its own and is continuing to this date.Sometimes it starts pulsating vigrously while operation It even for sometime starts working properly.The phone has become dumb and no operations can be made on the phone.I also took it to Sony's authorized service center-[Sonic Infotech 1st Floor Faridi Building Maqbara Road near Mafaiar Crossing Hazaratganj] Lucknow Uttar Pradesh. Problem reported to the service center "auto-vibrate and hang permanently in menu/application". They told that it will require replacement of a part which is not available right now and it may take a couple of weeks.When insisted to give the time in writing when to collect the phone after repair they showed their inability to give any reasonable time.On our demand they returned the set with the Engineer Remarks "ONLY VIBRATER WORK//PART NOT AVAILABLE SET RETURNED." with following details-
Repair Date and Time:Oct 5 2011 4:05pm

Delivery Date and Time: Oct 5 2011 4:08pm

Fault Code: Action Code: Part description Qty.

19-SW/HW No Trouble Found(NTF) 14-No Trouble Found(NTF) ( ) 0

It could not be understood that when there was no fault detected, non availability of what part they have mentioned. Response of your authorized service centers is very poor is very poor

I bought a sony ericsson xperia mini ST-15i a month ago, since last two weeks the phone has started behaving abnormally,there is a heating problem,battery draining problem and the touch buttons (back and options buttons) are working automatically on their own, they work without my command, if i open something, the phone comes back to the previous menu or screen. i am not able to operate my phone, you can check reviews on other sites about this product, sony ericsson shoult take it seriously because this is not happening only with me, this has became a global issue. so please if the consumer complaint can convey this message to sony ericsson and tell them to take some immediate action about this problem.

This mail is on behalf of my friend who has given her laptop, when i was present, to Sony Servicing Centre----Address--"Sony Authorised Service Centre,63,1st Main Road, Gandhinagar,Adyar,Chennai,Tamil Nadu 600020". When we had taken it there then the sony service man said that he is goin to test the system and also asked for the charger/adapter along with the Sony Vaio Laptop. After he checcked the laptop he came back only with the laptop(without the charger/adapter)(1st negligence) and said that there was some short circuit in the motherboard which has to be replaced. The job sheet attached was filled in by the merchant were it was their duty to fill in the goods we gave them(2nd negligence) after which my friend had signed on the job sheet. We had an idea that the charger/adapter goes along with the Laptop which is why the service man did not mention about it and also did not bring it back after he had taken it in for the test.There was no assistance from the Service centre(3rd negligence).After sending a mail to their Customer care i get a reply saying the same thing that it was not mentioned in the job sheet and the service centre is denying about the fact without thorough interrogation(Final Negligence).They have tricked me and my friend and were lyin about the fact that they have taken the adapter. I am absolutely sure that we had handed over the charger/adapter which we want to claim it back. Please Help!!! IHave also Attached the purchase invoice, Job sheet and the warranty card.

I have received 2 calls from the company's customer care after my complaint with the Consumer Complaints stating again and again stating that the white spots are due to physical damage and they can not rectify it under warranty and if I want to get it settle, then I have to make the payment of Rs 1250 or I can collect the cell phone as it is right now. This is because they have not seen the cell phone and also not consulted from the service center about the status of the spots.
Please help me out as I have borrowed someone's cell and I need to return it as soon as possible. And I can not purchase a new one for the sake of company's lack of commitment.
