Sony India Complaints & Reviews

I was in impression that Sony TV is best. Thus i purchased Sony LED TV Model KDL-55W800D in July 2017. Before 15 days picture on screen disappears. I contacted shop from where i purchased TV. He given me contact numbar of technician. Technician came & checked TV. After 7 days he told he left job of sony. Then I registered complaint on toll free no [protected] on 27th March. As on that no technician visited site.Since 15 days my TV set is not working. Name-SAGAR VITTHALRAO SOMASE Moile-[protected]

I have purchased a Sony led 48 inches TV on 23rd August 2016 and about 15 days ago from now it just stopped working. It was working and some time the screen just became black, sounds were coming but the picture was not available.I called Mr.Rana the Sony technician he saw the TV and said the mother board is defective today he arranged a motherboard form dhanbad service centre and then he fitted the motherboard but the picture did not come he now said that the screen is defective and it will take another 10 to 15 days for the screen to bee replaced and it will cost about 18 -20 thousand. Since I purchased this TV as I knew Sony is the best brand so now I am very much depressed because in a very short interval of 2 and half years my TV is not working please arrange as soon as possible so that my led tv get repaired as soon as possible at the minimum cost.

Lodge a complaint regarding above mentioned subject on 13th march2019 with sony toll free number. And then repeated follow-uevery day with customer care.. But till today not attended and resolved my problem. After calling service centre only get a response that we will look into the matter. But no technician visited my home and detected the problem. Disappointed with cool response.

Hi,
I'm naved khan, i'm from udaipur rajasthan, i bought sony tv "klv-32w672f" on "7 july 2018" from sony showroom, it's been 8 month & everything working fine at the time but suddenly one day my tv got fallen down from the floor & it got damaged then i went to the genius sony authorized service center, service technicans says everything is working fine only ur pannel & pannel border got damaged & we r going to replace ur pannel in 20-25 days with estimation charge of "rs.12623", i said ok, i paid the first installament amount 6k in hand, then i got call from service center & he says ur tv is completed, i visited there i paid remaining amount 6.62k, i checked the tv at home & suddenly i noticed my pannel border is not fixed very well & my tv woofer sound is not loud like before then i checked the tv setting via home menu = customer support = product informaton = kdl - 40w660e; then i got shocked!!
This is not my tv model no. I doubt they replaced my "new parts with an old one", i checked this kdl-40w660e on google & i found this model was relased in year 2017!!
I'm feeling cheated at the service center, i don't knw what kind of sony service they r deliverd to the customers, also customer representatives very rude they dont knw, how to handle customer, they r not trained very well

So this is not what i expected from sony authorized service center!!
Really got disappointment from their after sales service & the product is still under the warranty;

Is some kind of side business r goin on there with exchangin new parts with an old one ;
Who's knows?
Sony should take strict action against them & teach them how to loyal to the customers;

"sony india" should take immediate action against these kind service center, they r replacing new tv parts with an old one, god knows what will happen if i buy future sony product!!!

& i won't buy any sony product again until this issue has been fixed.

I'm highly depressed!!

We have subscribed to the premium version of sony liv app but since last two weeks the set hd channel live is not working properly on the app. Other live channels are not causing any problem but the problem still persists with the set hd channel. The live streaming stops and keeps on buffering every single minute. When the video resumes from buffering, it starts from where it stopped and hence, there is no live streaming possible with this. Please help or refund our money.

Hello,

I have been experiencing an on going issue since the time i have signed up for the premium membership.

There is a connectivity issues while watching live tv channels and says "something is wrong. We're working on it. Please try again in sometime."

Even after the update, the premium version on the app on my samsung smart tv is showing as locked, my premium membership is not showing and the error msg i get is "something went wrong, please try again after some time." also, i m unable to logout of the app.

Request for initial installation and demo of home theater was placed on 16 mar 19. Customer care rep assured completion of the same by 16 mar 19. Task was assigned to m/s ss technologies visakhapatnam and the dealer also committed installation and demo on 16 mar 19 or by 17 mar 19. However, dealer had switched off the phone and is not responding. Subsequently called customer care rep on 17 mar 19. But they even refrained from lodging a complaint and also to note my feedback of poor service support. Presently i feel the service reps and dealers are giving false/ wrong promises and the customer have to wait for services as per the convenience of dealer/ sony, which is not correct. Service support by m/s sony is observed as very poor. Request take necessary actions and complete the installation on 17 mar 19 itself to keep the commitment provided by your company and dealer.

Hi sir/madam,

I called to sony service center for repairing our tv (Bravia sony tv) and they came to our home to repair but they told we will take some spare parts (Two boards in the tv) and will get back with corrected parts and fix it after repaired the parts. They took away the parts even after six months also there is no response from sony service center. Even i called them 100 times there is no response but i have asked to return those spare parts again they are telling will give it back but it is continuing since last six months. Please fix it asap.
I am really frustrating their service and very bad service...

This is the number of the technician
I called sony customer care several times but it is least bothered and not ready to take any action

We have purchased sony bravia model no kdl-42w900b on 17th december, 2014.

Due to unknown reason our display panel got damaged.

We contacted to sony customer care from where, engineer from s. B. Electronics (Authorised dealer) visited our place, and confirm about damaged of display panel. He gave us estimated expense for replacement of display panel and on basis of which we placed our order with sb electronics on 26th december, 2018 and paid an advance of rs 15, 000/-. But till date we have not received our order due to non availability of display panel.

Instead of that we have received offer from sony tv for replacement of old tv with new tv (Model: kd-43x7500f). Firstly we received an offer price of 27, 000/- from sb electronics for replacement of tv which we were ready to pay. But after 2-3 days the price was revised to rs 55, 000/- which we are not ready to pay.

My contention is why display panel is not available for 4yr old tv. Is that after use of 3-4 yrs if any such thing happens to tv we only have to throw the tv as no spare parts are available with sony. Then there is no use of purchasing sony tv as spare parts are not available.

Even if we purchase any sony tv by replacing the old one, there is no surety that if any damage/faults happens to tv, it will get repaired.

Sony should give us replacement of tv at a price of display panel, if same is not available. How sony can charge us more amount, as it is not our fault that display panel is not available sony. It looks like that the sony is trying to sell us new tv instead of providing a solution.

We need proper solution from sony tv for our problem.

I took my sony tv to 'sony authorized service centre calicut' (Phone[protected] on 02/03/2019. Job no. J90412731. They said since the spare part is not readily available with them they have to get and they return the tv repaid within a maximum period of 10 days. They told me the total changes including all will be rs. 5, 350.00 and forced me to remit 3, 000.00 in advance which i did. (This is the first time for me some service centre force customers to make the payment in advance. Is it a company policy?). On 14/03/2019 at 10.44 am, two days after the due date, i called them and asked the status. They were extreamly rude and told me it will be ready when it will be ready and if i have a problem i can lodge a complaint at the toll free number. I asked the executive his name which he flatly denied to provide and challenged me to do whatever i can. This behavior from a highly esteemed company like sony was real shock.

I had purchased a sony android tv (Model x8500f, 49") on 09 feb, 2019. A counterfeit product was delivered without quality check.

During the installation of the tv on 09-02-19, it was noticed that the hdmi2 port was not functioning. It displayed a message 'no signal'. Also it does not support my sony home theater system (Model e3100), apple tv and fire tv. The demo guy (Technician) informed me that the hdmi2 port would work only with dth set top box. So i purchased a set top box. But still the problem persisted.

Thereon, i contacted the installation technician again to discuss about the problem. He confirmed to me that a factory damaged product has been delivered without quality check. And also instructed me to contact the sony outlet from where i had purchased, asking for product return and replacement.
How did the staff misguide a customer who trusted your brand and purchased the product?

Even after such a disappointing incident, i had accepted to get the product replaced as per sony service centre suggestion.
To my dismay and astonishment again a damaged product was brought for replacement. The screen of the tv was broken.

Does sony value their customers? Even after constant and reckless mails being sent, there is such a cold response from the management.
And sony without even taking the matter into consideration has blatantly blocked my facebook account for posting the issue and bringing it into the public domain.
Hence its proven fact that sony has sold a counterfeit product to me and trying to dodge the situation without giving appropriate resolution.
Is sony here to merely mint money without taking care to the customer grievances?

You can take back the product without even paying a penny. Instead i require an apology letter stating your failure to deliver good quality product and that the quality what customer required cannot be delivered from your end.

By considering all the above matters, do not consider negotiating and offer me another product or alter your promises. I have numerous evidence to prove that casual approach towards the issue and repeatedly delivering counterfeit and damaged product.

Also do not contact me via phonecalls. I have stated all my serious concerns via mail. Likewise i insist only for a written mail communication from the management on this issue.

I would take up the issue to the consumer court for the amount of time and effort expelled to follow up and no effective satisfactory resolve has been provided to settle the matter. Almost 30 days since i have purchased the product and constantly following up with the company.
For all the frustration and effective time spent on the issue i would seek equivalent compensation at court.

Consider this as a lesson. Have the courtesy to respond to customer queries and complains promptly. Do not keep them waiting and disturb them at workplace by making phone calls for all the issues. When the customer is communicating via email make sure as a responsible organisation you respond to the same via mail only.

If you are still adamant not to respond, then what are you here for? I expect a clear mail confirmation on the issue stating the action or decision regarding this matter.
Based on your response to this mail i would decide whether to take it up with the court. So expecting a mail acknowledgment is sent on the issue at the earliest.

Thanks

Hello sir maam
I purchased the above, in 2009 from casa madhav panjim. It was repaired in 2016 by self at mumbai. Since it's a sony product, i didn't want to throw it so i tried calling sony company in feb 19. The company willingly said it can be repaired so i told them to go ahead, it was repaired for rs. 3000/when i received the item it played for 10 minutes, i called up sony call center and send email, with lots of personal request. They took it back second time and took rs. 236/ for transit, it played for 45 minutes and then again same defect, now i am fed up with it, i wanted my money back, but they are not entertaining and saying that the instrument is very old. My question is that this they could have told me it cannot be repaired, so that i could get it replaced. Now i don't know what to do, kindly advise how to get my item repaired or my money back i am also going transfer from mumbai on 12 mar. 19. Regards

My complaint registered under J90399884 is not attended. Very worst service. From 10 days i am unable to watch TV. Even ulternate arrangement not made. No proper responce from the service provider. in this city No Sony products are not prefered by the customers due to poor service.   Replace all

Please take this in your consideration. This is about sony tv hd airing. The audio comes much later than the visuals. This spoils the mood for watching your channel. Please fix this problem on sony tv hd. This problem has persisted since a long time and no resolve has been done by you. Waiting for the fixation in anticipation since i have paid a significant amount to view this channel of yours.
