I have a serious complain against the sony ericsson service center people sitting at the Rohini Sector 3 area.

of the 7 months it had been of me buying my new Vivaz handset, it had a broken screen for 4 months for which the service center guys are totally hapless in helping out. they are neither escalating the issue nor they are helping out in any way.
They are big time ,frustrated and rude guys who i think got the customer handling jobs either by mistake or by throwing money at the owner.

i am utterly disappointed.

I had given my Sony Ericsson handset W890i for repair to the Sony Ericsson authorized service center in Sec-18. Initially it had the problem that the charging point and the handsfree point(common in Sony phones) was working intermittently. The service center registered my case and gave me a job sheet (Work order no. SE[protected]). I got my cell back after 2 days on July 14th. I did not have my handsfree at that time to test, but the phone was charging fine.
Immediately after 2 days, it started giving further problems where the headset sign was showing even without the headset being connected to the phone. This meant that even if I had to attend to a call, I would have to do it through the handsfree, otherwise it would not work.
I went to Sony Service center again and this time they said that they would have to send it to their head office in New Delhi and gave me another job sheet (Work order no. SE[protected]). After almost a month of follow up, these people called me up and said that your set is not repairable because it has been returned from our head office. I rang Sony Ericsson Customer care and they said if you let us talk to Service Center, we would ask them to repair it. I reached their Service Center and called up Customer care. The gentlemen from Customer care tried to help but the Service Center people were too adamant. Finally, when I checked my phone while taking it from Service Center, I found out that it had a message stating "Insert Correct SIM". I tried it with multiple SIM cards and it did not work. I showed this problem to the Service Center people. They took my phone back with the same work order no. (SE[protected]). Those people kept my phone for 2 more days and finally called me up and asked whether I have purchased this phone from outside India? I told them that this phone was purchased from authorized Sony Ericsson center in Gurgaon (DT City Center). To which those people added that whoever I have purchased this phone from, has purchased it from out of India and now it has got country lock and thus is not repairable. The lady further added that this can only be done from the “grey market”, so there is nothing much that they can do and asked me to collect my cell phone.

The biggest damage is that I gave my Sony phone in at least a working condition to Sony Ericsson authorized service center and now it is completely unusable. I had purchased this phone for around Rs. 15000.

Hi,

My name is Sai from Mysore ( Karnataka)
I wanted to buy a sony erriccson product MH710, it is a handsfree headset with Mike.
I approached so many sony delears in Bangalore and mysore, none of them has information about it.
I tried calling up the sony erricsson toll free # 39011111 number of time but none of the helpdesk/Customer care executives repsonded to me.
I Lost my patience for the last two months.
My question is "When sony showrooms doesnt have the MH710 product why it is been displayed in Website"
They have wasted my time and money.
I own a Sony PSP/Sony DSC-H7 cam and W810i mobile, but the above mentioned situation has made me to never buy any sony product.
I work on Audio/video formats Testing, i never ever suggest to buy sony product.
Though the products are good sony in india is Worst in terms of Customer relationships.
With lot of frustration i have decided to complain on this issue.
Please do the needful to me.

Thank you,
Sai

Hi,

This is to inform you that I had purchased a Sony Bravia LCD V-Series 32 inch television. The serial number is (KLV32V300A) SONY LCD 32"(B25),CHASIS NO 6212402

This LCD TV was purchased from Vijay Sales outlet at Prabhadevi, Mumbai via invoice no 39920 dated November 9, 2007.

At the time of purchasing this TV, I had an option to buy a cheaper Samsung 32inch TV with the same technical specifications.
However, since I have always patronized Sony products, I agreed to pay the extra premium to purchase this TV.

The TV stopped working last month and when I contacted the authorized Sony service center, they said the LCD front panel and the mother board have failed which would result in an additional charge of Rs. 13,100. This charge is unforeseen and unacceptable. I expect Sony to provide a rebate on this price and replace the spare parts of this television at no excess price. There has been no physical damage to the television. On opening the TV’s plastic case, most of the components were found to be made in China.

I hope this mail brings things to light on your quality standard which seems to have depleted drastically from the level which an average Indian has of SONY.

I have purchased “Sony Ericsson W395 Black”, IMEI No.[protected], from “Shiv Pooja Electronics”, Ghod Dod Road, Surat. Dated.15/10/2009, with Invoice No.763.

After approx. two months from purchasing, we have doubt about the clarity and resolution of camera. We have contacted the “Authorised” service centre, i.e. S.P.Connecting, situated at the same location of “Shiv Pooja Electronics”, about the same, but we didn’t get any solution. For the same complaint, Workorder has not been created.

On 06th Aug, 2010, we have reported problem of “non-operation of Bluetooth”, “hanging of Mobile” as well as “less clarity / Resolution of Camera images” to “S.P.Connecting”. Reference Workorder No. SE[protected].

“Authorised” Service centre had returned back the same after twelve days, saying that, as problems has been resolved permanently. As per them, Instrument PCB has been replaced and new IMEI no. is [protected].

After a few days, we felt the same problem of “non-operation of Bluetooth”, “hanging of Mobile” as well as “less clarity / Resolution of Camera images”. The same has been reported at “Authorised” service centre on Dated 21th Aug, 2010. Again they retained the mobile, and returned back the same after a week, saying that, No problem has been found.

On the very next day, we found the same problem with mobile. We have submitted the same on dated 26th Aug, 2010. Again PCB Replacement has been done, as per the representative of Authorised Service centre. We got mobile on 31st Aug, 2010.

After 3 days, we have the same problem, again we rush to service centre (4th time for the same problem within a month), and asked for the right service. According to them, they can’t offer any other service except PCB Replacement. Also one of the representatives of the service centre behaves very rudely with us, with a suggestion that we have to call customer care executive if we want some solution.

Dear Sir,

I purchased Sony Home Theater three years back from my father in law's friend shop.

My wife went to buy & the product cost was something Rs 15600-00 so she finalized the product and requested the shopkeeper that just now I am carrying hard cash Rs 11000-00 which she gave & told him to collect the balance amount from my residence while delivering the good. But some how her father said i[censored] have cheque U give him & he will deposit after the product is been delivered & installed at my place on which she without questioning she gave Bank cheque & after three months later one odd Day I was checking my Bank A/C I notice two EMI cheque was been debited from my A/C in favor of GE Money so I got shocked & asked that why have U taken loan for such small amount which we have already paid by Cash by me & intimated him that the cheque is canceled . So when I came to know about this I informed my bank to stop accepting all the further any cheque come in name of GE Money for clearing. Then i contacted your local office & all your customer Numbers & told the whole story that this is a fraud done by your Franchise Desk Staff for which since last three years I am chasing & asking for detail but no response from your side except harassing on phone every now & then at any time & using worst language & abusing our family ladies for which now I have recorded your calls & forwarded to local Police station insisting if again any call we receive U take action against local office.
Secondly two years back one of your executive came to my office & looking to my Business and as we R the well renewed Group of Company under name of ( Tirupati Venkateshwar Group of Companies ) were we R only connected with Indian Army & Air force for them we R manufacturing spares for Gun's & Tanks & Fighter Plains. & I don't think sir U require such small amount as loan that to where U have paid 80-% cash on spot & balance next day it is something fraud done by your franchise or GE Money Staff which U R not finding out & unnecessarily pressuring us without any relation or Fault. So pls look into this matter seriously & try to close the case as early as U can.

Dear sir,

I have bought xperia x10 i just 2 months back and I am haveing trouble with the phone from the very first week of purchase, the problem I am encountering is that the 3g services cannot be used in the phone for more than 2-3 days. The internet is disabled automaticaly on 3g mode, at first i contacted the service provider of 3g [ bsnl ] in my town and got the sim changed but to no use the problem still presisted, I even changed my number 2 times but of no use the internet signal would not last for more than 4-5 days. I even got the sims of bigger capacity {latest being 128 k} available with the service provider. Ironicaly all the sims are working properly in anyother 3g phone, i also have a sony ericsson w595 and 3g internet is working properly in it. There seems no fault with the service provider, i have even updated my phone with update service twice but that also didnot help. I got the updates also done by the service centre. It seems they cannot understand the problem with the phone. They keep on giving me further dates, they have no solutions to my problem. I talked to the head and owner of service centre MR JOHNNY and discussed the problem with him, he was convinced that there is a manufactuering defect with the phone and told me to call MR SACHIN head of technical and services department, MR SACHIN instead of listening to my problem told me that the phone was ok and the problem was with the service provider, he did not seem bothered about the problem and disconnected the phone. when I rang him again he told me he would call after 10 mins but his 10 mins are not over as yet.
Finally, i went to the shop where i bought the phone and gave my phone to the promoter, he used the phone with his on 3g sim and after 18 hrs encountered the same problem.

kindly, look into the matter ,I would appreciate your concern.
thanking you

I bought a zony ericsson xperia x10 mini on Jun 3 2010 in madurai. First the mobile getting problem in software regarding touch on Jul 12th 2010. i produce the sell inservice center madurai. they take one day for delivery and they told everything is right. second the charge is not standing upto 3 hours. again i raise the complaint 30th Aug 2010 in madurai sony ericsson service center. But they told that it will take one week to clear this problem. i asked why one week to solve this problem?.. They told that for this mobile we send it to chennai theyonly check the battery. within two months i face these problem. i spend 15000 and getting this mobile but they is no service in madurai. my question is
why they sell the product without having service persons or center in madurai.
For one week what it my position for mobile. ( i want to buy another mobile?)
If this product is not good then stop to sell that product.
they will never take care of customer.

regarding this issue i need a solution. if the service is not here then get back my mobile and repay the amount. otherwise i want standby mobile (same brand) for this one week.

I have a Sony Bravia LCD TV, model number KLV-32S400A, which is purchased on 30th Dec 2008. The product is now 1 year and 8 months old. The TV is defective, and has stopped functioning properly. After 5 to 20 minutes of watching TV, the screen goes dark slowly, until it is completely black.
I raised a complaint/service request for this on Sunday, 22nd August. Complaint was registered as 5826989. On Monday, 23rd Aug, I called up Sony customer care to inquire about the status. I was told that since this complaint was raised just yesterday, I would have to wait for sometime, as the response time is 48 hours. This response is quite disappointing, as I expected at least some intimation about when a service engineer would be able to come and inspect this.

After 48 hours, there was no response, and I had to raise a further complaint in Sony India website. I finally got a call from Sony service engineer on Thursday, 26th Aug, which is 4 working days after I raised my first complaint. All this while, my TV is still not functional enough for regular TV viewing. The service engineer refused to come to my apartment on Thursday evening, as it was raining. He finally came to check the TV today, Saturday, 28th August. This is almost a full week after I raised the complaint. As if this pathetic service was not enough, I am now told that the problem is with the LCD panel, and I have to wait till Monday to know exactly what the problem is, and how much it will cost. The service engineer has also given a tentative estimate of the panel replacement charges as Rs. 15,000.
After this experience it has convinced me that Sony India is, on the one hand, selling low quality products which turn defective soon after warranty period, and they have compounded the issue by extremely bad after sales service. The TV cost Rs. 39,900. For a price like this, which is much higher than that of LG & Samsung, a customer expects, at the least, a TV of exceptional quality. Not only is the quality poor, it is pathetic, since I have never experienced a TV that stops working in 1 year & 8 months. I strongly believe that either I have been sold a defective product, or all Sony Bravia TVs are of sub-standard quality, and action should be taken against Sony India.

i have got a key pad problem in my sony yari mobile i went to a service center known as mobile technology wch is at tardeo when i went there and showed my mobile first they told me they will charge me 1500 but my mobile was in warranty period then also they said they will charge me.when i went to the same shop next day they said they will charge me 2200 wht kind of monoply is this .after few days i went to another sony service center wch took my cell phone for replacement for some parts its been 15 days the parts are not available.i would like to lodge a complain in the name of mobile technology sony service centre cause they where planning to charge me with monopoly aLtough my mobile was in warrranty period

I Bought Sony Ericsson W995 mobile in the month of January. I have used the hand set as per the guidelines provided in the manual provided along with the mobile and also judicially as its pretty costly mobile. But the key pad is wearing out and the buttons are coming out slowly. When i approached the service center i had a very bitter experience there as the people did not even touch my mobile and check as they told that the keypad wear out does not come under warranty and we do not take any complaints for the same issue. I told them that my product is still in warranty and they should replace the key pad for free of cost. They were not ready to listen to me and just ignored me. I called up sony ericsson customer care and i was unlucky even with them as they too denied me any help and that too after couple of times the call was intentionally disconnected by them without my consent. They have set the warranty terms and conditions in their favour by giving warranty only for those parts which do not get repair and for the frequently wearing out parts customers are not given even single free replacement. I have been given a sub standard low quality product for 18900Rs which is not even worth for 3000Rs as such cheap mobiles keypads are far better than this product.I had given a complaint on 22nd Aug 2010 for which they sent a reference number back to me but still have not taken any action from the complaint date.Please help me out as i was very depressed with the way the customer care center people and their manager talked to me and disconnected my call without my consent and also check out the terms and conditions issue as its not customer friendly.
