Sony India Complaints & Reviews

Guys, Buying a Sony Xperia XA ultra Mobile Device is a horrible experience for me. I would give some addition to the original mail written to consumer care ( Consumer Complaint No 278522)

I have Purchased a Sony Xperia Handset in March 2017. From the day of purchase it had lots of issues, literally a defective handset i received from the dealer.

Some of the issues i faced initially as below

a)I was not able to fetch/transfer data from my mobile
b)Others can't hear what i am speaking unless i speak on headset
c)Talk for some time will heat up the device excessively
d)Phone will hang up frequently and need to switch off/restart

I visited the service centre and they told there is a software issue
They kept the phone for 2 weeks and returned, I found the same issues after a week period

I escalated to the sony service head for a replacement but did not receive any reply except a message that your request was logged as an interaction. Without any hope i visited the service centre again, after some days they called me saying that the motherboard is replaced and the handset is good to collect

I visited the service centre again, this time i thought i will check if it is actually fixed before I take the handset back

This time there was a new issue. The network for both sim in the handset(Tata docomo and Vodafone) was below 10 percent. I waited for half an hour to check if the handset will work after some time. As there was no network, I was not able to check the audio issues and other software problems

Very interestingly the lady customer care executive told the sim has fault. I have showed her the network as full by inserting the sim in other mobile device.

She checked in all possible ways and admitted the handset as defective. When i asked for replacement again, she told it's not possible as the job sheet is still open.

I have written the complaint on the back of the job sheet, but when i asked to put her name she denied to provide that information to avoid any controversial situation involving her. So without any hope, I left my handset again in the Service Centre

There were several follow-ups with Sony Customer care, Service head without any result.
In the meantime, Consumer help line has asked me to sue Sony India/Sony service center Koramangala in the consumer court based on the complaint reference(Complaint was closed from Sony saying the issue details has to be couriered to the Head office for any reply). I lost interest for a consumer case after a visit to the Consumer Court Office. We need to have enough time for a proper documentation and act as per some expert guidance which i have not.

After more than a month, Sony service center called to collect the handset., Although I had lost all the trust, i did not have any other option than to collect the handset.

This time the headset had the MIC issue(Other's can't hear what is spoken from the headset)

I left the service centre with all my lost hopes and a huge disappointment, I am still continuing with the same issue and i know I am done with my fight and can't continue like this

Only prevention from the lessons learnt for me is not to buy any products of Sony, not to refer any friends and colleagues and lastly to address in the forum for others to learn from my mistake. The Stress/mental agony suffered by a customer as a result of expectation of a Service after sale can hardly understood by so called Big Shots in Mobile manufacturing

Thanks for reading, please think twice before buying a Sony India Product

Our television was facing a problem in november last year so we called up at the service center although they took the television and repaired it in a few days the problem was still not solved. Today its 11th august 2017 and our tv has been taken thrice by those service center people because the problem keeps on occurring again and again they take the tv, keep it for 3-4 days and return it saying its fine now and this keeps on repeating after every few months. I would like to request the company to look forward on this issue otherwise exchange the tv.

I have given the phone to m/s. Sharon electronics, erode (Sony service centre) on 15.7.2017 vide job no. W[protected]. Only after a gap of 25 years, your erode service centre has informed about the status of my service job that the phone could not be serviced under warranty benefit and it will incur around rs. 9, 000 for the repairs to be carried-out.

On the same day they have informed that your phone has been despatched as per system information and they will call me after receipt the same. Till date, i could not receive my phone.

Problem:

After purchased the product from snap deal it worked fine for 5 months, there was no complaint on the same.

Then, the 1st complaint was raised against on “audio was coming there was no display on the screen” to sony customer care over the call, was on approx.in the month of may end with the following complaint number –[protected], -

• execute had come from sony, they found the problem with the screen. They have informed and ordered new screen display [it took again 10 days of time].

• they have placed the new screen display, even thought it was not working, again he found that “there could be a problem with circuit board inside the tv”

Again, i called sony customer care, and informed why did you send the person ‘who does not have knowledge and not sure about the problem’ – then they have another executive on the same complaint number.

The executive [second] confirmed that, the problem is with circuit board.

• again ordered the circuit board – it took more than 15 days of time.
• after received the circuit board, they have placed the same. As soon the they place the same - they have closed the ticket

But, it worked only for 4 hours – again the same problem exists with the tv [only audio there is not display]

Again i have called today which is on 10th of august 207 to sony customer care – raised the following new complaint number[protected]

What i want now is, i wanted my tv replacement or my money back asap.

I have waited all these months and there is no progress on the issue, more over executives are coming and giving solution which are not helping.

Considering my time, calling to the customer care and telling the same again and again, which is like irritating and there is no action.

If no action has taken against this i will proceed with legally.

Kindly provide necessary details asap.

Hello
Myself vijay kumar nimbark, my tv of model no kdl-50w900b is showing no service availability for skype video calls. But when we chose to buy tv we bought this since it had skype application and a web camera. Now if services are no longer available, then what's the use of spending extra money, and u people can't just cancel the application without reminding us. Now what should we do of that front camera...:make pickles out of it?? So it's a request to u to continue/or get new video calling application for us.

My earphone freely open from jack. When i listen song and the time of calling i faced lose contact. It remove from jack easily. But rajpath service center, don't register the complain. The center manager and center technician say it is minor issue for this we can't register any complain. But my set is in warranty. Before that i also facedover heating and charging problem in my xperia xa, rajpath service center also don't take this matter seriously, don't solve my set. They simply take my set for observation period and return it.in jobsheet maintion set is ok. The customer of bhubaneswar doesn't want this type of service from a branded company service center. I reqest to sony india service head please don't open such kind of service center, whose technicians are not solve issue, that service is ok for service center. Please kindly cancel the licence of the fraud service center. From this service center customers can't get proper service from a authorised service center. For this issue sony india also reduce their customers, sales, marketing. Please take this matter seriously.

Dear sir/ma'am

I had purchased sony xa on 19th june, 2017. Day before yesterday, while using the phone suddenly screen started flickering and horizontal lines appeared on the display. The very next day, i visited krishna services (Authorised sony service center), dwarka sector 7, delhi to get my problem resolved, however they are asking me to pay even though the device is under manufacture warranty. They are blaming me unfairly for causing this issue. My phone is only one and a half months old. I have used my phone with utmost care along with case and tempered glass installed. There is not a iota of damage anywhere on the device yet they are not willing to listen. I have checked on sony forums similar problem is faced by many other sony xa users and this is a hardware / manufacturing defect. Please help sort my issue.

Model - sony xa

Tv purchase date - 3rd july 2016, took delivery and installed in aug '16.

This tv was the most expensive product in its category among all the brands available in the indian market. Yet we bought it so that we don't have to worry about the product build quality and expected it to not have any issues for quite a few years. The lg tv bought by us 5 years back gave us no issues, so we thought sony would probably last at least the same period and more without any issues.

1) however, in april of 2017, the hdmi ports stopped working. Those ports were replaced then the picture quality went bad

2) the card which was the reason for the poor picture quality was changed subsequently

3) in end-july the tv just stopped showing images and only bands appear on switching on the tv. The technician took images and is yet to revert back on what next? It's being almost over two weeks without a functional tv.

4) i had my warranty extended for another two years after the first incident as i was not so comfortable with the build quality of the product, my worst fears are becoming true.

I am expecting a change of the product completely as i suspect i will keep getting issues with the product due to its poor build quality.

I bought a sony charger ep 880 from
Sony centre (Tokyo japan centre) in abids. Hyderabad
They said it's a fast charger and sold it at 1000rs. But it's not a fast charger. After i ask them, they said they gave the charger from a sealed mobile. And still they saying it's a fast charger. But original sony fast charger cost 690rs. They charged 1000rs for this ep 880 charger, which came with mobile.
This is the link of the charger they sold to me

I am purchased a led tv on january -2015 (Approx) from a authorised dealer at bhuabaneswar.

A am sorry to say that, on dt.[protected] there was a problem on led tv. After checking it from a authorised sony service center (Happy care services) at bhubaneswar, it has confirmed that the panel board has been damaged.
The cost of panel board is so much high for me as my income lable is very poor.

Sony is highly famous branded electronics company. Every citizen of india is admitted this

But in my case, i am very much surprised for the bad product.

So, kindly take my complaint seriously and help me & continued the dignity of sony india.
