This email is to evidential escalate the concern of violating the Warranty Policies against the purchase of a Titan Eye Optical Frame.
On 5-May-13 I purchased a Titan Eye Frame in Kolkata (Shoppers Stop - South City Shopping Mall) - Titan Eye Outlet, after using the same till about Feb this year, the Frame automatically cracked / broke off from the Soldering joints of the right eye corner.
It is not a physical or usage damage, but a product quality fault which resulted in the breakage.
Firstly, this wasn't expected with a product costing about Rs. 2750 (Approx).
I recently took out time to report the same to our nearest Store in Kasba - Kolkata, they registered the complaint after checking the damage & promised a replacement within 7 working days.
After 5 days the Store Rep called to state that, since the product was purchased from Shoppers Stop Outlet, they cannot help me, I was told to take the same to the 'Place of Purchase' again - I am not sure why.
I reported the same to my place of purchase, I.E. Shoppers Stop - South City Mall - Titan Eye Outlet. Where I was made to re-do the same formalities, that I did in the Kasba Store. Again wasting time & effort.
Today, I get a call stating that the damage is not covered under warranty of Titan & I will not get a replacement. As a loyalty they are willing to offer a 15% discount on my next purchase. What ?
1. Please clarify, how can a product quality damage (breakage from Soldering joint) not be covered ?
The warranty policies clearly states the same.
2. Why was I made to re do things in the 2 stores ? Are they not linked ? Who will bear the cost of time ?
3. I asked for a written note confirming what was told, 'I will not be getting a replacement as its not under the warranty'; I was refused & told NO Written Documents will be given ? Please explain
This was my 3rd or 4th purchase from Titan Eye including Sunglasses & Frames. \
I have had bad experience with my previous Eye Frame as well (colour peeled off in 6 months of purchase)
I need, a written consent from Titan stating that, they are not liable to replace their faulty products within warranty.
I shell use to same to register a Legal Complaint in the Public Consumer Forum.
Being a corporate, I shall use my public & company contacts to spread the news as 'well' on the social media.
