Sony India Complaints & Reviews

I purchased a 40' colour sony led tv kdl-ex520 in feb 2012. This was my first sony product purchased and as i had heard a lot about sony product quality i blindly bought the product. Now i am facing the vertical lines and distortion on the screen, when approached the customer care (Complaint no[protected], they asked to do the factory settings which i did but the problem still exists. Then an engineer came to inspect the tv. He told me that it was the display panel problem and which needs to be changed and the cost would be around rs. 22000. I mean after paying so much price for a brand that claims to be of best quality i need to pay almost 40% of the tv cost within such short span o[censored]sage makes me think what do you define as quality. When i did some research on the internet on the product i found a lot of people facing this same problem and this to be a manufacturing defect i have found lot of complaints by other buyers and the unbecoming behavior by such a leading electronic brand company like sony. Like other buyers of this model which seems to have manufacturing defect of display panel i also appeal sony company to recall the set and replace the panel free of cost. I don’t know the company will heed the request of so many people.
In the mean time i have decided that not only i but i will request all my known people not to buy any sony products in future.

I also suggest to all other aggrieved buyers to sit on a fixed date to sit before the sony show room in their respective cities displaying that “we boycott sony brands”.

Aforesaid model led tv purchased on[protected] has become out of order whereas after lodging complaint with the dealer in the morning the complaint was addressed on[protected] an after much persuasion & found that main mother board is defective which will be available after 7 days; immediate & faster service is solicited. Reputation of sony is at stake & not customer friendly. Warranty coverage is not the only solution rather, product should be zero defective. I regret for selecting said sony product.

Hi,

I purchased a brand new sony 43 inch x7002e from sri a. N & sons sony center in chennai. I faced a problem where there many black particles inside the plasma within a month of my purchase. So i raised an complaint and service request on 01-apr-2018 (Vide id:[protected]Request id:[protected]. This was assigned to service center and a representative visited us and said that there are dust particles formed inside the plasma and it has to be repaired. I objected and questioned him how can a month old tv can get so much dust?. I dint get a proper response from him. And they took the tv for repair on 10-apr-2018 and it was delivered back on 13- april-2018.

Then on next day i was able to see many dark spots on tv still and the condition was worse with the picture quality. So i raised an new complaint (Service request:[protected] and highlighting for replacement. A service engineer visited us on 19-apr-2018 and suggested for an repair again. I denied for an repair and insisted on replacement. He replied that he will forward it to company. I dint get any response yet. I kindly request for a replacement of the tv. Two repairs within 45 days of purchase is not at all acceptable. I even have an doubt whether the sony tv which was delivered to me was an new product. I am not getting proper response from the vendor.

I have attached all the purchase documents. Kindly replace my tv.

I had sony tv (Kdl 46w700a) bought in 2013 sep. Now tv is not working showing multiple images

I have raised a complaint[protected]. Service engineer checked and found tft (Thin film transistor) damaged. Need to be replaced
Customer service team suggesting the part was not available and they are forcing us to buy a new tv where they give some percentage of discount itseems.

Within 4.5 yrs will the part of the tv's wont be available. Then why these products are getting sold. I paid 80k to buy and i need to pay another 80k to buy another in 4 years i need throw them off.

Is this service sony manufacturing will provide to the consumer.

I am completely frustrated the sony service made us given the pressure of requesting us to buy another tv. 80, 000 worth of tv is now a garbage. Sony is cheating the people and making the profit

I am referring to the serial tarak mehta ka ooltah chashmah being played on sony sab tv.

As i press power button to screen lock and then unlock. It works fine.
But after few days this same problem becomes forever and screen goes lining and i did not even able to power off my phone. It power off after battery drained itself.
I take xperia xa to sony care far from my town, saharanpur (Opposite church road, saharanpur). Contact no. [protected]
.
They took around 15 days. Finally, my cell phone arrived the problem of screen lining resolved but they made a big mistek. I did not know how? My camera says
"error - camera may be using by another application please close another application and try again later" while no application was opened. I reset it. It did not works. I lost my data, lost my time, lost my money on such a worst product.
The worst phone and service i got from sony. Really really worst.
Again, they (Sony service) said took my phone to them again for 15 days. Did am free from other work. Did not i have another work to do rather than reaching to sony centre again and again.

Thank you

Sir,
I purchased my sony bravia 48w562d led tv in december-2016 from reliance digital panvel stores. And in just hardly after one year and one month it started display problem. Panel is full of white lines/patches. I tryed to contact with sony customer care but they said ur product is out of warranty and we cannot help for you. When i asked for paid service now even after 2 months of time period they keep on saying that the spare parts are not available in the company. If such a big brand sony is selling products all world wide how can they fall short of spare parts for so long time period. I think this is a manufacturing defect and company should repair my led free of cost since it is hardly one year from purchasing this product. Kindly look into this matter and do the needful.
Regards.

I was using xperia xa1 ultra and it fell and broke. I submitted the phone to my nearest sony authorized service center and they told me that 10-15 days would be required for the repair to get done. During these 15 days i called the service center a few times but there was no response and they did not provide me with any information regarding the repair process. On the 16th day, they called me to let me know about the expense required for the process and provide some advance to them. I went to the service center, provided them the advance and they told me some more weeks will be required to repair the mobile.
When i asked them what took them so long to even let me know just the amount, there were different answers from different person. The sony support care told me there was no spare parts available. However, the service center executive told me that the delay has caused due to the shift of the sony head office to camac street. However, when i called another executive in the service center and asked if the mobile has been sent to the sony head office he said no, the phone is with them only. This is clearly evident of the disparity in the different answers. I am worried because i am sure that the initial 15 days have been taken by the service center because either they were using my phone, as it was not dead or they have misplaced some of the authentic hardware parts with fake parts.
Moreover, as a consumer i feel cheated because they have lied to me regarding the exact cause of taking one month for the delay.

Sir i have gave my mobile phone to to sony service centre which is located in sector 18, noida, on 3rd of april 2018, for repairing and they told me that in 5 to 7 days your mobile phone will be ok i said ok. But today is 13th of april 2018, but still they said every time awaited for part... Awaited for part.
And they will charge 4100 for changing display.

‪It’s a Pathetic experience from the Manufacturer of SONY LED TV.‬
‪We have purchased the SONY Bravia Television Model - KLV-40R352D IN5 bearing serial number 4526079 from Sales Corner, Manjalpur, Vadodara, Gujarat on Oct’17 and after 6 month past we started facing Issues. We complained for the same and they have replaced the Mother Board 2 Times stating that if this time trouble arise they will replace the TV set. Complaint Number are 43767508/43937718/43570191 but before 15 Days, two prominent Black lines started appearing on Display (Screen). We talked for the replacement or refund of money but there authority person (KRUNAL via Balaji Service Station) talked rudely and also stated that No replacement will be done wherever you want to complain, you Can !!! We wrote mail to Consumer Forum with CC to Sony Care. We are really frustrated and mentally disturbed on such kind of service and now we are good to mental torture of following up the things where we are not getting proper reply or response as well .‬

The Area Manager of My location Mr. KRUNAL Kaleria don’t have adequate behavioural sense for how to speak with customers. He has yet to understand the true meaning of Customer service and how to handle the customer query . Kindly look into it asap as it’s our hard earned money which your managers are not understanding.

Hello,
Sony company is becoming one of the fraud companies. It is making customers fool by saying some reasons like production stopped and parts not available. To sell their new products, sony service center indiranagar bangalore, they said to me tv's display panel is broken and its cost around 8000. After 10 days when i called they replied the common story part is not available and you buy a new tv, we will give 25% discount. So i took a dd for 25000 and submitted at service center on 24 march 2018, still didn't deliver a new tv. It is already 12th april. So people should put a case in consumer court for cheating people.

Dear sony team,

As i intimated my mobile related concern on[protected] to run service infocare pvt ltd-hyderabad
For the same "run service infocare pvt ltd-hyderabad" check with my phone and ask two days of time to provide detail clarification on estimated service price on the same day.
Then i provided my brother contact number as a alternate contact number.
For the same he received one call on[protected] and provided estimated bill to service my mobile. At that time he updated details with concern service team person clearly that "i will update the same with my brother" then after i reached run service infocare pvt ltd-hyderabad through call communication on[protected]. That time they updated with me that they closed my concern due to one week of time completed from the date of intimation. And for the same they ask extra amount to re-open my concern again they charged rs118/- extra from my end. The same communication which i received on[protected] when i called to run service infocare pvt ltd-hyderabad service team.

Even though i accepted the same. And i paid the amount of rs 6505/- (With 2.5% extra charges) through my credit card.

Now i receive a call from same centre and asking extra amount of rs 350/- from my end. Due to display cost increased.

Now my questions are :

1) is run service infocare pvt ltd-hyderabad authorised dealer for sony.
If yes what basis they closed my first intimation.
2) and with out update the details how they can closed my concern.
3) when i called on[protected]. Was they don't have knowledge what the estimated amount will their to repair.

Please update the same if not i will escalate the same to consumer forum.

The technician brought the T.V after 10 days after repairing it and charged us 31 thousand but after the repair an evident black spot is visible on the screen and the technician is not ready to own it up to it. He admitted to have realised that flaw before bringing back the T.V but instead of telling us about it he brought it to our place after travelling for 2hours. And now when I am demanding an explanation, the only reaponse he has is we need to pay 8000 and wait for more 8 days.I want to state that this has caused a terrible inconvenience and I has really disappointed us as we thought high of sony's services previously. Please look into the matter ASAP.
