Sony India Complaints & Reviews

I recently bought a sony ericsson w395 its a very attractive phone if plan just to look at it, you are going to have some serious troubles if you plan to use it. As the phone usually hangs while playing songs(supposed to be of the walkman series) even if that's not irritation enough it is very slow when you access some large menu like list of songs from your memory card, on top of every thing there is no software support from the company side to improve any of these complains and apparently these defects are mostly manufacturing defects as they are found in almost all the w395s sold throughout India. If one is still skeptic about this then he/she can google any of these defects along with the phones name and see the results.I just want a phone that will suffice my needs of a good mp3 player and a normal phone and seriously this phone doesn't have the potential to do that. The company should atleast change there softwares so that they can perform a little bit better.

This is in reference to a Sony Ericsson handset K810i, which I bought in January 09.
It was working fine till I found the 2 buttons at the right of the Joystick getting harder while pressing around September end. After a week’s time suddenly the screen disappeared and a white blank screen was showing while opening the cell phone.

I was shocked to see this as the phone didn’t hit the ground during that period and it was pretty unusual. So immediately I took that phone to the Sony Service center at Kamla nagar “Cariano”…the service they provided proves that one should not buy Sony Ericsson Handset ever.
They simply opened the handset and the guy said the buttons not working due to a liquid damage so it won’t be covered under the warranty…that statement was not acceptable because of the care I have showed towards my handset. I have always kept my handset protected under the laminated sheet in order to keep it safe from water or sweat.

After that I asked why the screen disappeared. They said the Power IC got fused…It’s a sheer crap and doesn’t make sense at all. They further told that we can’t repair this either as there is a chance, the handset might go dead.
So after a week’s time they finally returned my phone stating non repairable.
Again I showed this to another service centre in Roshnara Road, they even didn’t attend my issue at all as the phone has already been rejected by Cariano…

It’s so disheartening to see the service provided by Sony and the money I spent around 12K on buying a handset was just a worth 8 months?
Now after so much of struggle and disappointment, I swear I will not spend a penny on buying any Sony product nor on the repairs.
I want Sony to take care of this Faulty Handset or return my money back.

So please help and if i could get a contact details of any Service manager, or even the CEO,i dont mind complaining.

Hi, I am bought Sony Ericsson G900 mobile on 07 Nov 2008. I am usually customer of Nokia but looking at the feature of Sony Ericsson I got attracted and bought this G900 at the cost of Rs 20,000.When a person buys such a costly cell its always an expectation that it will beworkable with mentioned features. My expectation with the cell phone is to get the mentioned featured workable at least under warranty period. The day I bought the cell it was a big trouble for me till now, 7 to 8 time its been repaired. The majority of the time job sheet been created under Sony Ericsson Kalyan branch with poor service The Receptionist looks to be illiterate . Number of time I need to travel to Thane Sony Ericsson service center.Now in 11 Months of experience the cell was under repair center for 3 to 4 months this shows I not enjoyed the experience at all and its one of the worst experience I am having. I bought new Nokia cell so that once G900 go under repair I can use this. You can understand what impression running under my mind for G900 serviceafter spending 20K.

The Status is that the cell phone is again with non-workable status at RT Outsourcing Vikhroli (Mumbai) with“Hanging Problem and No display”. Now looking at the cell it seems the Display (screen) is getting changed. It’s hard for me to use cellc osting 20k having each part being repaired. It seems the problem exists with cell phone. The majority parts of the Cell phone is been replaced (Touch screen, Mother board, Displayscreen) and I think with such condition it’s not possible for me to accept the repaired cell phone further.
Now i got call from them to collect cell. I asked them for get it replace by RT Outsourcing and even sony ericsson service center they are not doing it. what i do they are not ready to do that.
I not accepted the cell yet can anyone please tell me wht i do.

I had given you two sets of Sony Music systems for repair on 25/08/2009 to M/s Club Electronics, authorized service centre for SONY, which were handed over to me on 27/08/2009 saying that these have been repaired and functioning perfectly, and was charged Rs.7000/- for repairs.

On installing the system at my home the system again started giving problem so I called sony's office the same day i.e 27/08/2009 around 4 PM and spoke to Mr. Dinesh ( Enigneer who repiared ) and was told that he would visit and check the same at the site.

After a week when nobody came I called again and got the same answer and the person gave me a complaint number I/12/05. The other system also started giving problems.

But again the same response when I called again, again I was given a complaint number K/14/03.

Since there was no response from their end I visited their service centre at south extension on 14/11/2009 along with both the sets which were kept there and another Job Information numbers were given.

I recieved a call from them that I would have to pay Rs.3000/- for repair of one set.

I wish to inform you that you that these people are using spurious or sub-standard parts for repairs that is why the set gets damaged the same day. This is their modus of working so that the poor customers come back to them and they keep on charging them again and again.

sir,
this is to inform that i have purchased a f305 handset which i am nor satisfied with. 0.1 mb of phone memory automatically reduces in 2 or 3 days. also there is a problem regarding the presets of music player changes as soon as song is changed. the o and x keys are losing their colour. i have already reported my problem to e-17 sony ericsson service centre. they updated the software but nothing happened.
thanking you

Re: REPLACEMENT OF CELL PHONE(K 550i)


Sir,

Iam a great member of your Sony family for the last 5 years.I request you to visit my residence once to prove this point.I don’t use any other brand than the spell bounding term SONY.I use Sony tv,handycam,home theatere,digital camera for a long time but all these products are trouble free.But it was my ill fate that inspired by these performances I brought a SONY(550i) cell phone on 04.12.2008.After the very first month only the performance was not as per SONY standards.So long it was functioning I did not have time to rectify minor defects.But off late since 23/10/09 I am really disappointed.Till date I have given my set for repair at Babli Media-Gariahat but it is not working.First I was told the Software was upgraded(vide work order SE309BMG10963) but it only worked for 4 days.Again the same problem occurred and I gave it to your service centre(work order SE309BMG10983) AND THIS TIME I WAS TOLD THE Mother Board was changed all the way from Chennai but not to any effect.Again I was forced to send the set at your service centre on 13.11.09(work order SE309BMG11174).

I request you to see that this set is replaced at the earliest as they are unable to repair the same but are harassing me time and again.

Now I want to take some serious action against them.
Can anybody assist me ?

sir/madam,
i hereby to inform you that , i bought a sony ericsson on 20.2.2009 for 8000 rs , still one year is not over and i gave the mobile for service 3 times still i didnt get the problem solved . i think i bought the mobile for giving to service only i am very much wrecked on buying this mobile for so much cost . i am not in a position to use the mobile for any emergency . and also i lost my patience for giving service again and again. after the warranty what i can do with the mobile , i dont know what to do now with this . i think i can give your mobile back to the company . and i wil take the cost as my punishment. my EMI no is [protected]. please do the needful

Am using this mobile since 2yrs. 3-4 times there was software complaint so i updated it from responsible service centers. From 2days am experiencing that my mobile displaying like a negative photograph, but no display of any colors. this problem am experiencing 4 d 1st time. WHAT I HAVE 2 DO NOW???

I own a sony ericsson HPM-85 headset purchased on[protected] from CELLULAR WORLD TRIVANDRUM,which has warranty coverage of 1 year.By[protected] one side of the headset seized to work.I approached the SYNERGY SERVICES-A DIVISION OF PROMPT SERVICES(SONY ERICSSON CERTIFIED SERVICE CENTRE, PATTOM, TRIVANDRUM) and submitted the required documents to replace/repair my headset on[protected].The work order is

SES09 SYS10599

The customer executive told us to wait for 3 weeks to replace/repair the headset. I have been contacting the center on the following dates:

26/03/2009
12/04/2009
28/05/2009

for obtaining my replaced/repaired product.But they have telephonic-ally replied me that they will contact me back when the shipment/courier arrives.Till date(11/11/2009) i have not received any calls from the centre,when i approached them on 11/11/2009, they accused us at being late to receive the headset and .The headset was returned to us WITHOUT ANY REPAIR/REPLACE from SYNERGY SERVICES, PATTOM, TRIVANDRUM, KERALA. I suspect that they have used the product without informing us that it has arrived, and i have been forced to accept the OLD HEADSET ITSELF in an UNSEALED CONTAINER and have been deprived of my rights to warranty AT THIS DATE.


The MANAGER treated me very badly with unpolite words and ushered words of abuse towards me when i demanded that my headset is not repaired/replaced and that it should be done,the manager said that they are not responsible for the condition of the headset. Since i don't have any proof for the telephonic conversations, i am treated as if it was my neglect to collect the headset. The manager denied us to obtain details about the REPAIR DATE of the product.Since SONY ERICSSON has specifically included in the WARRANTY CONDITIONS that

"IF SONY ERICSSON REPAIRS OR REPLACES THE PRODUCT, THE REPAIRED OR REPLACED PRODUCT SHALL BE WARRANTED FOR THE REMAINING TIME OF THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY PERIOD OR FOR NINETY(90) DAYS FROM DATE OF REPAIR WHICHEVER IS LONGER."

When I pointed out this clause in the SONY ERICSSON WARRANTY CONDITIONS, the manager replied that the clause is not applicable to his centre (SYNERGY Services a.k.a. PROMPT Services,Pattom), clearly defying TERMS & CONDITIONS of SONY ERICSSON. I EXPECT SONY ERICSSON TO TAKE INITIATIVE AGAINST THIS FRAUDULENT APPROACH FROM AUTHORISED SERVICE CENTRES AND THAT I WILL GET MY HEADSET REPAIRED/REPLACED WITH A NEW ONE.

The address of the service centre is:

SYNERGY SERVICES
TC 2/2410(2)
FIRST FLOOR,BETHEL TOWERS

I am from ranchi and my sony ericsson K550i is in warranty period . i had some problems regarding insert sim about 2 months ago . I went to your sevice centre situated at MAIN ROAD , RANCHI . They solved the problem but the repairment created problems like it is turned off now n then with a lots of hanging and white screen display. The battery also is not working properly.I went to the service centre many times but they return the phone wiyh the problem unsolved . please cooperate

I had bought the set on 14.08.2009.Immediatly the set erased data on memory chip three times.I went to the service station and updated the software three times but the problem remains the same.Then the concerned service station requested the company officials to change the set but they didnt accept and changed its PCB.But afterwards the phone didnt get signal.And i took the phone to the service station.They tried to sought out the problem but didnt get any result and now I want to replace the set because from the very beinning i bought, it didnt work properly

I am IITM student. 20 months back I have purchased K810i mobile phone. a month before i feel the hand set heated up when ever i'm charging the phone. one day that battery was broken while charging (due to heat). i gave to authorized service center they have taken 15 days for finding the problem and they returned my mobile. The reason they are telling mother board have problem due to short circuit in the board thats need 70% of mobile cost to rectify!!!. now that useless mobile with me... I have planned to send my mobile as 'GIFT' to Sony India.. (for showing the product Beauty). i never suggests any one to buy Sony Ericsson mobile!!! and far better to buy China mobile (to save the cost)

I have purchased Sony Ericsson Mobile K-530i on 28.10.08. On 1.10.09, I hv display problem and I submitted the phone with their Service Center in Rohini (Near M2K) vide WO/SE309RDC10977 dated 6.10.09. Today is 9.11.09, I have not received my Mobile back and nor any satisfactory reply from thier Service Centre. I have made several calls on [protected], every time they are giving same reply, "we have sent your mobile to chennai and you will get call back from our office within 24 hrs. but reget, one month has passed, I have not received any reply from them. Pls. advise
