Videocon Industries Complaints & Reviews

I had purchased 34inch CTV8600QS from yatindra electronics hubli in oct 2008. In May 2011 it developed a problem showing distorted picture . when service center was contacted one mr. Mahantesh from M/s Balaji associates , Hubli([protected]) attended to it and charged us a fees of Rs.950 for parts and Rs.350 for service. It seemed to working all right for just a month. But since nearly 20days it has developed the same problems. I have been contacting videocon service center and this Balaji associates for the last 15 days repeatedly .Nobody seems to be interested in repairing this set.
Is the Videocon company really interested in servicing its products?
I was proud to have all videocon products in my house like washing machine , a fridge , a cd player , and 3 TVs so far. It is sad this Balaji associates do not attend to videocon customers.
Is there no guarantee for the repair service or the parts that have been replaced about a month back?

Dear Sir/Madam,

I had already complaint 3 times that i had purchased a new tv from Spencer's, pacific mall, gaziabad and its not working properly.. its sound system is having problem..

MY NAME IS BHASKARA MURTHY PURCHASED A VIDEOCON VC1424 SINCE IT IS HAVING CDMA AND GSM TECHNOLOGY ON[protected]. WHEN I HAVE BOUGHT I HAVE NOT CHECKED USB CABLE. I WAS CHARGING WITH SMALL PIN CHARGER SINCE IT IS FOR CHARGING ACCORDING THE SELLER. BUT I LOST THE CHARGER WHILE TRAVELLING. FOR IMMEDIATE CHARGING I HAVE USED USB CHARGER. BUT WITH THAT SET WAS NOT GETTING CHARGED. SO I WENT TO SERVICE CENTER WHO IS ACCEL CARE CENTER,VIJAYAWADA. WHEN SHOWED THE USB CABLE THEY SAID ITS A CABLE PROBLEM. ACTUALLY THE COMPANY PEOPLE HAVE GIVEN WARRANTY FOR EVERYTHING OF VIDEOCON MOBILE. WHEN I ASKED FOR THE USB CABLE THEY SAID THERE IS NO STOCK AND ASKED ME TO COME NEXT WEEK. THEY DID THE SAME THING FOR 2 MONTHS. I WEXED WITH THE PEOPLE I FOUGHT WITH THEM. FINALLY THEY GAVE THE CABLE. I WAS CHARGING THE MOBILE THROUGH THE COMPUTER. AFTER ONE MONTH ONE BAD MORNING WHILE CHARGING WITH COMPUTER IT GAVE A SMALL SOUND LIKE "TUP" AND GOT DEAD. I TOOK IT TO ACCEL CARE CENTER AND GIVEN IT FOR SERVECING. AFTER SITTING OF ONE HOUR THEY CAME OUT AND SAID THE LCD HAS BEEN BROKEN. I HAVE USED SO MANY CELLS FOR THE PAST 10 YEARS. IF LCD GETS BROKEN AND DEAD THE MOBILE SHOULD BE WORKING IE INCOMING AND OUTGOING . BUT WHEN I ASKED THE SAME THING THEY ARE SAYING SOMETHING OTHER THAN THIS. ACTUALLY THE CUSTOMER IS NOT ALLOWED INTO THE SERVICE ROOM. SO WHAT EVER THEY DO INSIDE WE DO NOT KNOW. ACCORDING TO MY KNOWLEDGE THE REMOVED MY LCD AND FIXED IT SOME OTHER CELL PHONE(SERVICE CENTER IS A FRANCHISEE) AND SOLVED THEIR PROBLEM. NOW THEY ARE SAYING THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR LCD SINCE IT IS PHYSICAL DAMEGE. ACTUALLY IT IS NOT A PHYSICAL DAMAGE AND THEY SAID THE COST OF LCD IS RS488 AND THEY WANTED TO GIVE RS413. IF ACTUALLY IT IS LCD PROMBLE THE MOBILE SHOULD WORK INCOMING AND OUTGOING CALLS. THEY ARE BLUFFING ALL THE CUSTOMERS LIKE ME AND ENCASHING FROM THE SOFT PEOPLE. THERE IS A PERSON FROM VIDEOCON WHOSE IS MURALI WORKING AS MANGER AND REJECTING LIKE THIS AND EARNING MONEY WITH FRANCHISEE OWNER. SO I REQUEST YOU KINDLY DO NEEDFUL FOR ME AND MAKE THEM TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THERE IS NO OTHER ALTERNATE FOR TO GO FOR CONSUMER COURT IF THE PROBLEM IS NOT SOLVED



THE DETAILS
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT SERIAL NO. 0093.

VIJAYAWADA, PHONE NO[protected]

THE MOBILE WAS GIVEN ON 20-06-11.
THE WARRANTY WILL BE LAPSED IN 2 MONTHS

I Prakash G Shinde from Ratnagiri had purhased a Vediocon 34" TV in
'Mano Ya Na Mano' scheme, through 'Maharaja Trading Corporation',
Ratnagiri, on 03/04/2008. With respect to the above scheme I received
your letter from Vediocon with reference no: 'SR014808' dated
09/03/2011 regarding other TV options with extra payment. So with
telephonic conversation with Vediocon's employee Mr 'Vishal' from Pune
branch, with Cell no [protected] I ordered 32" vediocon LCD TV
(VRL32FBM) & sent DD of 10.500/- dated 24/04/2011 drawn on name of
'Vediocon Industries Limited', BHMO Account payable at Bajirao road
Pune, through 'Janata Shakari Bank', Ratnagiri (DD no: 157660) &
submitted the Surrender Certificate with no 149460. As within 15 days
I didnt received the delivery of TV, I called Mr Vishal, he said dat
the model is ot of stock as gave us other option of VRL32RBM as it was
in stock. I confirmed to deliver the VRL32RBM model, but got the
delivery of model vediocon V3205FB (DTH) on 30/05/2011 with Invoice no
[protected] dated 24/05/2011. On notice of different model delivery I
called Mr Vishal, he said to change the model by 15/06/2011 as now the
model VRL32RBM was also out of stock. but even after repeated
reminders after 15/06/2011, I havent received the required TV.

I had installed Videocon DTH cable connection on May'11 with a 3 MONTHS FREE SUBSCRIPTION. During installation, the service executive had never told that using a 22m wire will cost Rs.130 extra.

Now, after 1 mnth, without any prior notice, the services are scrambled and reason as given by Customer care is that, since I had not paid the amt of Rs.130, and now I need to do a recharge of Rs.200 again to get the services. And also that the Free subscription is no more.

I have invested Rs.1400 and giving another rs.130 is never a big problem!!!! but i need to know that first.
Your service engineers never gave me the information.

Request you to please get back to me in this regards,and solve the case ASAP.
Trust and reputation goes hand in hand. And if you have broken my trust, means you have lost your reputation aslo.

very bad service.we have never experienced this type of service. we have bought 300 lts Videocon double door refrigerator 5 months back.Day 1 onwards water is leaking from plastic tray.we have lodged 3 complaints. Till now ,there is no progress at all. service people have said that there is no stock of plastic tray from 5 months onwards.they were not replying properly also.we have bought other company products like LG washing m/c,samsung etc.Their response was very good and they have solved the problems within 24 hrs. Really we have made a big mistake of buying an indian product. very poor service

Dear Sir/Madam,
I bought ViDeOCON VF 55 ARWH / 5.5 KG WM. WHITE machine on 24/02/2011 which is still in warrenty period (1yr)

Though the complaint logged on 19/05/2011 and complaint no. is KOL[protected].

One day later service engineer visited and said that some parts had been broken and need to be replaced which will be arranged. After repeated follow up to service center and Great Eastern (Dealer) on telephonic call, we get only one answere that same will be arranged. So many time I complaint logged on 25/05/2011, 09/06/2011 and complaint no. is KOL[protected], KOL[protected] respectively.

Till date, I am waiting for person to come and replace our machine.

With regards

Dear Sir/Mam,
I have Videocon make washing machine model Multie 6800 and Serial no. 49009 which was purchased on 03/10/2005 from M/s New Ganpati Electronics, Opp. old telephone Exchange, G.T. Road, Panipat. Its Dryer /Spinner has broken while running and also damaging the base of dryer section which is made of PVC. I think this should not happen and this is due to quality problem in PVC material. This type of damge is un imaginable. This should be replaced immediately as this is totally quality failure. So you are requested to pls. take necessary action to sort out the problem.

Dear Concerned

I had purchased Videocon Air conditioner which is of 1.5 Tons from Next retail outlet in Pratap Nagar Mayur Vihar. It was purchased on 13 MAY 11 and that is installed now. At the time of Purchasing we have already discussed installation is included in the price. Next day of purchase I called Next retail outlet for installing the AC they send their engineer after 1 days and installed. Installation charges for Installing new Air conditioner was not alicable. The amount was waived as per terms but after one month now they are asking installation charges of Rs. 2k. They are fooling the customers by providing these kind of false services. I hope action will be taken against them very soon. I have called several time at bellow mentioned no., but no person picked up my call.

Sir,
The detail is as follows
1-The ASC at Cuttack Received Charger and Mobile Hand set V1655 .To day at 12.30 P.M ASC handed over the mobile and said that the Charger is not functioning you come tomorrow and collect the charger which will be collected from Videocon depo.Very surprisingly he telehoned me at 3.36 pm that charger cannot be replaced from MOBILE NO[protected].The ASC technician opened the charger (mobile end at my presence at 12.30pm)You may verify the Job card.No cash memo was given by Home Shop18 and warranty card was blank which I had to fillup before giving the mobile toASC where dealers seal and signature not present.Very typical business through First Flight Courier payment was made.
I am too much disgusted with the dealings as proper customer care is not supported by Videocon.Is it a punishment that I purchased V1655.Can a mobile work without charger for a long time?This was also working as USB cord
This is reply to your mail regarding received to day at 4.43Pm"We would require your kind support by providing us the further details & to be patient with us."No proper importance is given for service.
Thanks

Dear Sir/Madam,

My name is Haqeeq Shaikh. I am a user of Videocon Sim card with the number of [protected] and every few months my balance is being surreptitiously deducted because of activation of schemes WITHOUT my explicit permission or written consent or a previous scheme is renewed, that too without consent.

I tried calling the customer care number a several dozen times and the executives inform me that I have activated the scheme which is an absolutely fallacious statement. I never sent an SMS for activation neither did I ever reply or pressed yes when disingenuously asked about activating schemes. My number is even registered with the National Do Not Call Registry (NDNC) and yet I'm being added to SMS shayaris or other schemes time and time again.

The executives say that they lack the power to revert the action and ask me to speak to their seniors and when I ask them to connect me with their seniors then they never (NOT once) connect me and often disconnect the phone when asked to talk to seniors.

I want this unscrupulous practice to be truncated and all the SMS schemes being reverted and my balance restored with immediate effect and to preclude any such further insidious schemes without my explicit permission or written consent.

Hoping for an alacritous response.
