Sony India Complaints & Reviews

I have purchased sony hts iv300 2 days ago. After the installation after one days the av receiver starts hanging. When i contact the dealer they give me the sony complaint no. [protected], when i call this no. They said that engineer will come in evening and will see the problem, but no engineer came and i tried this no. More than 10 times but that lady did not pickup my phone. When again i contact that lady through dealer her behaviour was very rude. I think sony is no more responsible towards their customers. You will purchase sony and take whole life tension. What the hell sony are doing. I am totally disappointed with sony service.

Sony bravia klv-32r482b 32
Inches led tv, purchased in 2014 showing issue in display. It looks like display panel issue. Same issue i have seen on other sony led products at my friends n relatives home. It looks like a big blunder from sony company, as i see a lot more similar complaints. Sony should provide true efforts in fixing this or else their image will be tarnished.

I had purchased Sony Bravia 32" LED Model KLV-32R482B in Dec, 2015 and now within 3 years, sudden blurring of images on display with white/black/blue vertical line is developed since two days. I called sony customer care and lodged a complaint with ID 49923206. The engineer visited us and told that it is the Panel problem. According to him, the new panel will cost around 13700.br...

I bought a 43 inches sony brand led tv. From day 1 it started giving issues with remote control, i had complaint about it and my tv remote control was replaced 3 times. But still the issue remains and there is no resolution provided by sony after so many complaints. Last week also i had interaction with customer care but nothing happened so far. I wrote many emails as well but still issue is not resolved and now no body is attending to me. Pl support

Dear Concern,
I am user of sony product and satisfied cust. but recently i have faced problem in my Sony HiFi music system, as per Visit By Sony Engg. at My Location(A-390 ranjit avenue Amritsar) and tell me that some software issue in my system and i have to submit my system in Sony care same was observed by Customer care during FTR, So I went To Sony Centre situated at National Shopping Complex in Amritsar(Punjab) and submitted my System, as per Service Engg. Non availbility at centre they asked me don't worry we can repair your system through our LCD TV service engg., I trusted on them and submitted my system at their service centre and as per them they asked me to collect your system after 10 days due to all KEYS Had gone Faulty and to be replaced. After 8 or 9 Days when I confirm from Centre regarding update status then they told me that required materail to be arranged from Sinagapur and it will take next 13 to 15 days, My concern is this that why they not inform me on same day that they aware about parts non availbilty in India and why they told me when i approach to them.

Rest I want to know that how could you provide after sale service.I think Concern Service Centre Incharge Mr. Gobind is taking lightly Cust. complaints and his bheviour was very rude and argu with me.
Also he asked me that this system is not manufactored now a days so we can not provide proper serivce, but i purchased system two year back now i suppose to purchase new system of Sony in every year to get better service.

I am very much dishearted and feel cheated after all this situation( regarding your after sale service and bheviour of your Senior Executive of Service centre Mr. Gobind.)

Pl. provide me solution as still my sytem at your service centre.

Dear team,
I'm really sorry to inform you that my home theatre system which was affected by flood was given to the service centre for repairing as per ur advertisement that all flood affected items will be serviced at 50%discount. It is very disappointing that they didn't even check the item which was given for servicing and they were calling me for promoting ur new item by exchanging the same. They didn't even check the item and was forcing me to buy a new one. Very much shameful act from your side at this point of time for promoting your item where all the people are suffering from flood related consequences. Rather than helping you are draining.

I deepak venugopal residing in mumbai, mulund west, have been using sony products for a very long time but not anymore after the pathetic response from authorised sony service centres - pan mumbai.

My tv was not working for the past three days and i was trying to locate on the internet an authorised service centre. This pathetic response is what was in store.

1. The nearest service centre - mangalmurti enterprises, thane west - tel - [protected] was totally non responsive for two days. Nobody even answered the call. Pathetic!!

2. I then called another centre in thane - nancy electronics - they immediately gave the mangalmurthi number. I told its not working. They asked me to keep trying. Pathetic!!

3. I then tried the toll free number[protected] was not working.

4. I then had a live chat with sony rep. The person gave me the toll free number - which was not working. Then she finally gave me a far off service number in the western suburbs and still had the audacity to say their service was commendable. Its still 3 days and i havent even started with sony service. See attached images.

5. I then contacted the service centre given - krish electronics - malad east.
The person kept interrupting my case with her in between talks with other people and finally said they dont cater to mulund area. When i protested she asked to call the toll free number.
I said it wasnt working... Then finally.. Finally she said it can be dialled only using landlines..
Now none of the site says this.. Not even the customer rep on the chat told me this.. Pathetic.
They also gave me the mangalmurthi number - which i think is only for show. Totally non responsive.

6. Finally i used the landline and registered the complaint. The rep said my problem will be solved
Within 48 hours.. God knows.. Because when i asked for the complaint number.. He said it would be
Sms'd to me.. Where..?? Man iam using the land line number. He kept fumbling until i gave him
My mobile number. Its been six hours.. I still havent received the complaint number..

7. Iam just keeping my fingers crossed that some sony technician turns up else will get some other brand

Anyways iam out of the sony fan club after the pathetic experience. The reason for writing this mail is
To highlight the problem with sony process to the sony management and how over the years it is going downhill.

Hope this mail is noted.

As raised sony registered a complaint and assigned service center on 28th aug 2018 and not even visited than just a phone call. I don't think even customer care not properly supporting the customer to solve the issue. I called several times to customer care for the same issue but not even solved or not visited the site and product. I am thinking sony is not willing to solve the issue due to wrong installation happened from their technician.

Service request id : 49373105 dated 17/08/2018

History:

Model: klv-32w562d / serial no.: 4037294

Fault type : display issue – horizontal flashy line on the middle screen

Asc name : techno plaza, garia station road, kolkata 700084

With reference to the above mentioned service request, your service centre has picked up the tv set for repair on 22/08/2018. But till date the set has not been repaired and your service centre is unable to provide any tentative of return of the rectified tv set. They have informed that at present the required parts are not in stock of the service centre. They have indented for the same which is yet to be received by them.

In this respect i would like to inform you that they have not provided any alternative tv set for the time being.

I have faced the same type of problems and non-cooperative action earlier also. It has come to my utter surprise that a reputed organisation like sony india has paid their deaf ears to the complaints of their esteemed customer.

You are now requested to provide an exact date of supply of repaired tv set and arrange to provide an alternative tv set immediately.

I have purchase sony bravo tv 32" three years back (I. E in july 2015). Two years extended warantee by bajaj insurance. Problem comes from panel by lining in left side of screen in the month of may, 2018. After complain panel was replaced by company ((I think in the last week of june 2018). But after two month same problem comes from tv that shows three line in screen. My extended warantee expire on 18 july 2018. After complain in toll free no of sony care the representative called that your warantee has been expire and service will be paid service.
I want to say that sony type of branded company product and its accessories are so poor in quality.
If company want to replace my tv panel once again than i will be tankful to him if not in future i cannot believe in your company and its products.

Thanks

Dear Mr. Gaurav Sharma,

Greetings from Sony India. Thank you for patronizing Sony product.

This is in reference to your e-mail dated 22nd August 2018, addressed to us, regarding your Sony BRAVIA TV, Model No. KLV-32R412D, Serial No 4065796.

We understand your concern towards your Sony BRAVIA TV.

We received your aforementioned handset at our Authorized Service Centre - M/S Prachi electronics on 20th July 2018 vide Job number J81801538 for the symptom “No Picture”. On inspection, engineer observed that the set is attempted for service by agencies outside our authorized service network and display panel found defective. We found definite evidence of it. Once a product is attempted for service outside our authorized service network, warranty becomes void. Not only for that particular job, but forever.

Therefore, the initial service estimate of Rs.10, 360/- was informed to you by Service Centre. This estimate is prepared solely on preliminary investigation of the set. The spare parts charged are on current prices and subject to change.

This case has been discussed with the management.

We would request you to approve the initial estimate so that necessary service action can be carried ahead.

Thanking you and assuring you our best services always.

With Warm Regards,

Debashis Sengupta

Dear Sony Team,

Please find my comments in red .

As per your statement “Once a product is attempted for service outside our authorized service network, warranty becomes void” I agree but you can not find this what circumstance that this situation happened . As per your rules First time I call the service center & engineer tell the panel is not work & out of warranty (cost is 10360/-) then everybody try to other option .

As per your statement “We received your aforementioned handset at our Authorized Service Centre - M/S Prachi electronics on 20th July 2018 vide Job number J81801538” This is the second time when Your engineer visit, as per your mail if handset is not show outside you repair free of cost .

You think that if first time engineer do not misguide why are we take this action as per your all mistake do our end & your engineer & service center is safe . This is your duty that you do the support the customer & tell the warranty & other condition . If You not support our side & safe the engineer then we take other action. like consumer court. This action necessary for me.

LOOKING FOR BEST RESOLUTION YOUR YOU.

WE ARE NOT EXPECTING THIS KIND OF PRODUCT QUALITY FROM A BRAND NAME LIKE SONY

WITH BEST REGARDS

Dear Mr. Gaurav Sharma,

Greetings from Sony India. Thank you for patronizing Sony product.

This is in reference to your e-mail dated 22nd and 23rd August 2018, addressed to us, regarding your Sony BRAVIA TV, Model No. KLV-32R412D, Serial No 4065796.

This is also in reference e mail sent to you on 23rd August 2018 by undersigned, in this regard.

As we explained early, the set is attempted for service by agencies outside our authorized service network and display panel found defective. We found definite evidence of it. Once a product is attempted for service outside our authorized service network, warranty becomes void. Not only for that particular job, but forever. However, you would have escalated the matter before attempt by local technician.

Therefore, the initial service estimate of Rs.10, 360/- was informed to you by Service Centre. This estimate is prepared solely on preliminary investigation of the set. The spare parts charged are on current prices and subject to change.

We regret to inform you that we are unable to comply with your request to service the product under warranty. We solicit your understanding in this regard.

We would again request you to approve the initial estimate so that necessary service action can be carried ahead.

Assuring you best of our support always.

Dear Debashish,

I do understand that we had examined our set outside but you know the
reason behind it . If your technicians are misguiding your valuable
customers for just small amount of personal benefit so how can we
trust on brand like SONY.

First you please educate and make happy ( in terms of money) your
technicians so that they will not misguide customer for just small
amount for their personal benefit.

Anyways now the situation is very much clear to you also on the other
hand i have already spent Rs 5000 ( wrong guidance by your people) on
this TV set . Now i don't want to spend much as my pocket is not
allowing this much of expense . So pls talk to your seniors or concern
authorities where you can offer some best charges for repairing this
set .

THIS IS REALLY DISAPPOINTING FOR ME AS I HAVE TO SUFFER BECAUSE OF
YOUR PEOPLE MIS-GUIDANCE .

I had purchased MHC-V71D from Croma Retail South Ex on 19th Aug 2018, Invoice number SLA[protected]. Serial Number of the product is S[protected]D
I had hardly used it for 5-6 hours and it is showing PROTECT3 error. I had called customer care 4 days back and complaint number was 49730106. It was attended today morning and the engineer found some problem in motherboard. I am shocked to see the quality of such an expensive speaker that it got damaged after using for just 5-6 hours. I am expecting not to repair it and get it replaced from company. Need your urgent attention on above matter.

I gave my phone for them to change the display when i gave everything was ok and they even check it the display that is broken and no damage to the other parts of the phone. When i received my phone back i am having problems with sim recognition problem and more over they have sent the back and side panel of the phone. They are then blaming it on me when i went to the server centre please do the needful or i'll have to file a complaint in the consumer court regarding the damge done to my product
Plz revert to me soon

I had bought Sony Bravia television before 3 month. Since after 2 month technical issues started. Firstly, a minor issue of volume started. Afterwards it's not even switching on. I had contacted customer care so many times n had complaint about the issue but they are not responding anything. I had trusted the company n purchased best television but I'm disappointed. I request u to replace the television as soon as possible n it's still in warranty period.

Dear sir, we have purchased sony klv 48w562d sl no 4018315 on 9/10/2016 for rs.59, 000/. Just after completing 1 yr, a vertical lines are started appearing on screen. We have complained this where we have purchased t. V. The dealer get it repaired from sony centre hubli and collected service charges rs.1416/- by saying that they have replaced a panel on 30/04/2018. The t. V panel was in under warranty still they have collected charges. After 15 days of repair the same problem started again, the t. V dealer collected the t. V and submitted to hubli service centre. Their they kept t. V with them for 3 months and now telling that mother board is having problem n need to replace it n for that we have to pay rs.10, 000/-. This is really surprised to us that such a big n reputed company very famous for quality products manufacturing, how they can supply such low quality mother board product to customer for big amount. I kindly request you to replace our product and keep our belief on product n service of the company. And encourage us to purchase some other products of the same company. I hope your good office will resolve our issue very soon as we are unable to invest more on same product.

I bought sony android tv 2 months ago, but there is a problem with the panel and horizontal line also appears, the screen is also flickering.

*sony service is very bad and the bhopal sony service center also does not help.

Don't buy any sony lcd tv, they provide the worst service. I recently bought a led tv and started to face problem within 60 days.

Now i am running behind service and customer care to get it replaced.

"sony products are designed to have adequate ruggedness and undergo very stringent quality control while being manufactured. However, failure may happen in the product in the course of time, and this is the reason why, we offer one year free of service to our customers.

We would like to state here that responsibility of basic maintenance and protection of the product lies with the customer.

As per the warranty terms and conditions, request your kind support and co-operation in allowing us to repair the product."
