I had a Sony Erricson Handset T250i which I had purchased on 21 Oct 07 and it has a warranty of 1 year, last month in February I faced a problem with the phone so i had submitted the handset on 16th Feb 08 at Sony Erricson Service Centre.
The Service Centre is SAP Service Centre, situated at Dadar Opp.Portugese Church.

I have called them innumerable times but have not got my handset yet. They were not giving the status properly and kept asking to call again after some days. They sent the phone to Delhi for replacing the Mother Board. At times the person claimed ignorance and said that she was new and did not know about it even though I had spoken to her earlier. At the time of submitting the phone there was another person who had the same problem and it had been more than a month for him. I told her that they would take the same amount of time for me also. At that time they told that it was rule that they replace a handset if it takes more than a month.

Frustrated I also called their call center ([protected]) they said that it should not take so much time and they would revert after 48 hours. They did not, so I called again and they said that they meant 48 working hours!!!. Then they called my husband’s cell number, he was busy and could not answer. I had to call Delhi for my cell on that number. They said a part was not available so it is taking time. I asked them to replace but they said they do not have a policy to replace.

I don’t know what to do. It’s very difficult to manage without my phone. My complaint ID is SES08SAP11093 dated[protected].

Sir,
I bought a Sony Ericsson K790i mobile on 1st January 08. I was given with a free 1GB sony memory card also. The next day i tried to load my memory card. But i encountered a problem that i was unable to load the memory card above 450 MB whereas it being a 1GB card. I went to the shop where i purchased and enquired about it.I was told to go to the sony service center. I did it accordingly.

My mobile was serviced and given to me nearly after 15 days. I was told that the mother board has been changed. As i received my mobile i inserted the memory card that was given while purchase of my mobile.The phone did not recognise the insertion of the card. At that moment itself i lodged a complaint on that issue.

Now my phone is with me but the memory card is been given for service.And still i dint get it back. It is almost 20 days.

I am sorry to say that despite my good expectation, since its purchase during Jan 1 '08 and till now i have been using the mobile hardly for just 30 days, rest of the time it was on service.

I have not enjoyed any benefit even after incurring such a huge cost.

Expecting your sincere response on this problem i hereby give the details of the mobile below:

Model : Sony Ericsson K790i

Sir,
I have purchased a Sony’s DVD Writer Model No. DRU-170C from M/s Computer Empire, 102, Meghdoot 94, Nehru Place, New Delhi 110019, vide Retail Invoice No. [protected] dated 23rd August 2007. Due to some technical faults the writer failed to write/burn the DVDs and ejected the DVD with the errors ‘Power Calibration Error and Command Sequence Error’. So, I handed over the defected unit to the Sony’s Authorised Service Center i.e. RPTECH CARE CENTRE located at 207, Mansarover Building, 90, Nehru Place, New Delhi 110019 for repair of the defected unit against I/W Ch. No. 17272 I/W Dated 29.02.2008 and RMA No. 36,886.
The problem arise when they replaced the defected unit with the unit of different model i.e. AD-7190A-C1 and moreover the front portion of the tray does not printed the Name of Sony and is blank. On enquiry it is told to me that the model, which you have given to us is not available and the present model which we are giving to you is provided by the company to replace with your defected unit/model. Further when I installed the unit I came to know that the unit is make of ‘Optiarc DVD RW’ having serial No. 7XA6620L111. Therefore, I am not satisfied.

Dear Sir/Madam

I had purchased sony ericsson W580i mobile phones in november 2007. And i faced the network problem in february and when my mobile stopped recognising the SIM at all. I contacted the customer care sony and gave my cell for repair at SIL which is sonyericsson service centre. at Okhla, new delhi.

Since it is more than 15 days since i gave the phone for repairing, i asked for the replacement of the phone because im facing lit of inconvenience because I m not having any other mobile. They are still not making any progress.
I have alll the details of the complaint and the complaint number also. So, could you please tell me how to move forward now. I want to lodge a complaint now.

Dear Sir,

Subject: Replacement of Model No. W200i Walkman Phone (Rhythm Black)
Ref No. : IMEI No.[protected]

I have purchased Sony Ericsson Mobile Model No. W200i, from Mobile Mall, an authorized dealer of Sony Ericsson situated at G-4, Rajvi Complex, Opp : Maninagar Police Station, Rambaug, Maninagar, Ahmedabad – 380008, on dated 31st January 2008. But within a week I found there was a problem in functionality of mobile on 9th February 2008, which are as under:

• Could not hear properly.
• Disconnection of phone calls
• Phone remains connected with the person who has dialed my number/to whom I called, but there could not be any conversation between two phones.
• Data cable could not be connected to use internet services/to transfer data from computer to mobile phone.

On 9th February 2008, I have visited your authorized service centre “Krishna Infotech, 4, First Floor, Ratna Complex, Opp : Bank of Baroda, Maninagar Cross Road, Ahmedabad, and explained above problems in the mobile phone. They have suggested me that since it is a Saturday on 9th February 2008, it is better to come on 11th February 2008, so that we will repair the mobile within two days, but they have taken Six(6) full days to repair the mobile. While receiving mobile from Krishna Infotech on 16th February 2008, I have found that they have not only changed IMEI number of mobile phone but also removed PLUS facility of mobile. This is not enough to tell you even they could not connected data cable with computer. They have also informed us that mobile is working properly, but truth is that they have done nothing, but only changed the original parts of the mobile.

After that I have reported same problem to your another authorized service centre “Salora International Limited”, 101, Kalash Building, Near Jain Derasar, Opp: Navrangpura Bus Stand, Navrangpura, Ahmedabad – 380009 on 18th February 2008. But this time also they have not repaired my mobile and taken another Six(6) full days, and reported same fault as earlier reported by “Krishna Infotech”. I have received my mobile phone from Salora International Limited on 23rd February 2008.

I would like to inform you that total tenure of mobile purchase is 24 days as on 23rd February 2008, and out of these total 12 days taken by your authorized service centre for repairing activity and 2 days mobile phone remain switched off due to could not hear properly.

I hope you will definately take action against this complaint.

ONE OF THE DEALER NAMELY SONY MUSIC MAHAL, NEAR MOTI CINEMA, CHANDANI CHOWK, DELHI - 6 IS SELLING THE SONY PRODUCTS AS IF HE IS THE BONAFIDE DEALER OF THE COMPANY. EVEN ON THE COMPLAINT ON THE SAME TO THE COMPANY, COMPANY IS NOT TAKING ANY ACTION AGAINST THEM AND OTHERWISE PROMOTING ITS PRODUCT TO BE SOLD ON THE GREY MARKET.

i hve bought a sony ericson p1i phone 3 days back but i tried my best to load its pc suite but couldnt get it. i received a message to get configurations from internet i tried but failed. even after loading the software cd provided with the phone my lap top fails to recognize my phone device whenever i connect it. i went to the shankar road service centre also but even the executive there failed to load the software. he told me to go to okhla office. i am so upset okhla is 30 kms from my place. i hve purchased a sony for the first time and having a very bad experience. this never happened with nokia.

I have purchased a sony W-830i phone on 7th July'2007. This was my first sony phone, previously I was a loyal customer of Nokia. But the customer service that Nokia people gave me on having a fault with the phone made me go for another brand.

My sony ericsson phone model W830i was purchased from Neeru Enterprise, Noida (Invoice No. NE/07-08/0859). Two days back my mobile phone charger went dead. So I went to the service center "Neeru Enterprises" for getting it repaired/replaced today i.e 10th Feb 2008.

The lady on the counter saw the charger and said that I have to give the charger and they would be giving me a replacement within a months time. I asked her for a replacement charger so that I can charge my phone during the time they take to replace it. She denied it. I argued with her saying that how am I going to charge the phone. She said that she can do nothing about it.

Talking to the Manager "Surender Kr. Sharma" was also not of any help as he said that they are out of stock for CST-75 charger and that I should either go to the head office or try any other service centers. Upon saying that he is asking the customer to go and look out for the availability of the charger elsewhere rather than providing that service himself. He suggested that I should talk to the Company Sony Ericsson directly as he himself is unable to help.

Upon request with the sales guys, I was finally given a replacement charger.

Few questions to the very helpul Sony Ericsson Customer Service.

1. Why does replacement of a charger take a month(it should be done in matter of minutes)?How is sony ericsson expecting the customer to charge the phone while waiting for the replacement of the charger. The new charger costs around 600 Rs. Am I expected to buy a new charger to charge the phone while sony ericsson is taking its own sweet time to replace it?

2. Does sony wants people to purchase only low end phones, cause these chargers are easily avilable with the service center?Whereas chargers like CST-75 are out of stock (and I heard the manager saying that there are people waiting for it for more than 2 months). spent 16K on sony ericsson.. was it a mistake?

3. Why should the customer run around to the head office or to the other service center? Isn't it possible that the service center co-ordinates between themselves so that the customer is not given a run-around?

4. The manager says that I should contact the company. Isn't he the one representing the company? He should be made aware that he is the face of the company.

Within 20days of buying the phone, i had a problem with the camera and instead of replacing the phone they replaced the camera. Again within 15days i hav a major problem with the phone. The phone keeps restarting and also whenever i switch off and switch on my phone all my data on the phone is lost.

The Instrument bought has value attached to it and which is hard earned. I dont have time to run everytime to the sony ericsson to get the problem rectified. The instrument has a fault and it needs to be replaced.

Looking forward for your cooperation,

Thanks & Regards,
Gurpreet

Hi,
I have purchased a Sony music system from the Sony authorise shop in Shipra Mall Indirapurum GHAZIBAD on 5 Feb 2007.

On same day when a person comes from Sony does not able to install the music system completely. A promise made by the worker of Sony that he will fixed the defect next day.

When no one visited from Sony even after a week we gone to Sony show room to discuss the matter. They again made the promise that they will send some technician to fix the defect, even then no one visited.

The same process repeats and even after 11 months of purchasing the components of sony no one visited from sony. I had made the complaint more than 10 times about this in Sony but no action has been taken.

I always assume that purchasing a good from Sony means a good customer support but it seems that no body is their to listen the complaint of Customers.

This is my another effort to fix the problem so that I communicate a positive experience of Sony.

think SONY is a product known for its quality & innovation. but the recent experience makes me to rethink about my stand. I bought a SONY Ericsson z550i handset in noida, INDIA. less than a week, the handsfree developed a fault and i take to the store where i purchased t. they direct me to a service center. there they have taken some documents (proof of purchase) and told that the handsfree will be replaced in a week or not more than 10days. but i received no communication. when i contacted them they said there is no response from the company. after that i contacted the corporate office in the above ph no. the line is busy for more than 30mins. after that one lady picked up the call and asked for additional details like phone id, which i don't know what it is. she again directed me to the service center. already i spoke to the service center 4times on that day. till now i have no t received my handset .in the service center i have found numerous people complaining about that model. but most of the sets are less than a month old. but for me its less than a week. how bad it is. SONY ERICsson products are scrap & lemon. even a child doesn't like to play with that phone. the customer service is really poor. what for the company is, if its not caring its customers.

Now i would like to know what is the procedure to return this set. the quality and service provider both are very poor.
Never ever purchase Sony Ericsson products!

Sir,

I have purchased one handycam NO. SONYDCR-DVD708 from Ambika Enterprise, SCO 42, Sector-11, Panchkula on 12.01.08. The distributor confirmed that one of their representative will visit our premises and will give DEMO for the use of handycam. I am sorry to say despite my telephone reminder no body has turned up till date.

It is really surpirising to see that if a company like yours appointing such type of distrbutors, then you are spoiling your brand image by not providing after sale service and making false promises with customers. If nothing has been heard from you within a day or two, I will be forced to take some serious action or going to the court for making false promises at the time of sales and not fulfilling after that.
