Voltas Complaints & Reviews

Greetings from Athulya living. We are a 5000 bed assisted living facility and have decided to order 1 Voltas AC per bed.

As part of our first order we have ordered 30 nos Voltas ACs out of which 1 AC has developed cooling issues. On complaining(Ref no - [protected]), your service person has charged me Rs. 7, 200 which includes inspection charges for 10ACs (Rs.4000 to stamp warranty) to and Rs.3200 for repair works.

However, during the first month of warranty I fail to understand how such charges can be laid against us considering the ACs have been bought with bill and warranty. I request you to resolve the issue at the earliest failing which I will escalate the issue to consumer court and consumer board legally.

Got complaint no. [protected] on 15th march 2018 and till today there is no redressal of the issue. Receiving call from your local hyderabad service people saying that they were informed only about ac servicing only. Till date the experience is pretty bad since the time of installation. Hopefully, your service level will match that of your competitors at least this time around.

2. Functioning of ac right from the beginning is not satisfactory and on our complaint your representative shri g. Balaji ([protected]) has attended to the ac. He said that gas leak is there in the machine and refilled the gas about 10 days ago.

3. Yesterday from 10 p. M. The ac is not functioning well and no cooling effect.

4.in the circumstances, i request you to replace the ac machine as we are not in a position to put up with it anymore.

5. As yesterday none of the family members could sleep at all your urgent action is required.

Respected,
I rajan, purchased the ac in last april (2017) from vijay sales (Thane).
Up till now we are not happy with your product due to the following reasons:
1) continuous gas leakage
2) water leakage from the input unit
3) bad service (Mentioning the same reason rather than solving).

I hope this matter will be solved asap!
(Already summer has began)

Product details : voltas, 1.4 ton, 3star (Copper, sac173iy white) b01nbvbq7t. Supplied by cloudtail india pvt. Ltd. Ahmedabad.
Reference :invoice no. Samc-3807 dtd-21st sept. 17.

Sir,
With reference to above i furnish few facts for your due attention & apt action in this case.
1) ac mentioned above is defective as till date its swing flap is broken thrice. Once immediate after installation, then after one month & now at the time of first free service.
2) the flap breaks without any reason. It has never been operated manually with hand. We always use the remote to make adjustments to its swing direction.
3) now the mechanic who came for servicing is blaming us for the damage. When we objected, then he mentions about some fault in the motor that is reponsible for the movement of the swing flaps.
Therefore i request you kindly replace existing ac with new one. As there is no point to continue with faulty ac.
Please replace new ac at the earliest.
We are not interested to repair present ac.
Please do the needful.

Thanking in anticipation.

Ninad.

Sir/madam,

Recently i have purchased one inverter type 1.5 ton split ac for my residence and for the operation of the wifi mode i have installed the voltas apps in my mobile. However, it is really surprising that after signing up with my mail id i could not link the website to varify my email id after clicking on the link provided by you after repeated attempts. I also tried by copying & pasting the link in a separate browser.

Dear sir,
This is arvind tiwary. I am from ranipet, vellore district, tamil nadu. I bought a voltas ac (Name of model:183v ey 1.5 tonne, ac sr no :4551978a16a004140 and outdoor unit sl no2: 4512038d16a007614) from your dealer in arcot, called anbu electronics on 19/03/2017. But it is unfortunate to reveal that i got my first free service done yesterday i. E on 08/03/2018. Now my one year is going to complete on 19/03/2019 so i will miss the second the free service. On contacting voltas customer care, i was told that the two free service is given for the first year. But i got a call of free service in the last month of one year i. E. Only on 07/03/2018 and service done on 08/03/2018. On 19/03/2018 my one year will completed so my second service will be lapsed with no reason of mine. When i called the dealer they told me that it is not possible for second free service since the one year warranty period will be over.

I know that your firm gives utmost importance to customer service and customers gives importance to mouth publicity rather than the advertisement given in print or visual media. Here i loose my privilege to get one free services because of the negligence of your dealer.
So i request you to do the necessary to reinstate my privilege for two free services. My phone number is [protected]
Expecting a favourable decision i remain,
Best regards

Dear sir,

With reference to above mentioned subject & invoice number given at reference, i would like to bring on your kind notice below details. Two air conditioners were purchased on dated 26/01/2018 (Xerox copy of croma bill is enclosed herewith)

(A) voltas s/ac 1.5t 183sy 3s

(B) voltas inv/ac 2t 243v eva 3s

Above both units were installed by your authorized service franchisee sv refrigeration on dated. 10/02/2018 & they charged rs.1200 for a/c stand & its fitting charges. A xerox copy of sv refrigeration service request no 4227 dated 10/02/2018 is also enclosed herewith.in opinion my a/c stand & fitting must be provided free along with the unit.

Now please take serious note of the following issue, why this has happen when air conditioners are purchased from authorized dealer or you may say from your own retail outlet.

(1) please find enclosed herewith the photograph of 1.5 t indoor unit where the right side bottom portion is bulging-out as compared to left side. Actually bottom-line must be straight.

(2) yesterday evening i. E. On dated 11/02/2018 some noise movement was heard from the

Out-door unit of 2 t air conditioner unit, when it was tapped, the squirrel jumped out from the out-door unit.

I checked the out-door unit & it was found that the quite large gap is open from where squirrel or rats can enter into the out-door unit. A photograph of wide gap is also enclosed herewith which clearly shows that such wide gap is sufficient for the entry.

It good that the unit was not in operation, other-wise there were chances for short-circuit.

Now you are requested to send your technical staff for verification & do the needful to resolve above both issues at an earliest convenience. Hope for an early response. More over today i have lodge complaint wide service no bow120218fs00021 & bow120218fs00022.

Please find enclosed herewith sv refrigeration service request no.4430 dated 13/02/2018, whereby the technician visited my residential place & has reported as below:

(1) he checked the 2 t outdoor unit, opened the top cover of the unit & showed me that there is no gap inside the unit. A/c is ok.

(2) he also checked the 1.5 t indoor unit & brought its bottom into a straight line.

For above two statements of technician i totally disagree & on the same service request no. 4430 i have clearly mentioned that (1) 1.5 t a/c is still not in a straight line (2) 2 t a/c fins on condenser quite large gap is still there. I have seen other a/c outdoor units.

I would again like to bring on your kind notice that in my letter of dated 12/02/2018 i have clearly mentioned about the physical defects which means only a look from out-ward appearance which means without touching the unit one can observe the defect. I hope you will agree with my point.

Now so far 2 t outdoor unit is concern a wide gap can even observed from the photograph of my letter of dated 12/02/2018. Copper pipes are open not covered with fins. I have taken the five photograph other outdoor unit which are enclosed herewith, which clearly shows that copper pipe are fully covered with fins & there is no gap for the entry of any rodent (Rodents include small squirrel, lizards, cockroach or any other small insect). Please compare these three photographs with the photograph attached in letter of dated 12/02/2018.

About 1.5 t indoor unit again i am enclosing four photograph of it, where your technician has claimed that bottom line of the unit is made straight to which i totally disagree. Photograph still shows that bottom line is not in straight line.
Please send some responsible person from your quality control department, who can observe the things minutely, so as to resolve the request.
I would like to bring on your kind notice that on dt.25/02/2018 mr. Kulin vora & mr. Kalubhai prajapati along with one technician visited my place personally & observed the defect of both air conditioners as under:

(1) mr kulin vora agreed that in 1.5 t indoor unit the base of the unit is not in a straight line & waves are quite visible & he told me that they can replace the outer of indoor unit. He took the photograph o[censored]nit with his own mobile camera.

(2) i showed him the gap in outdoor unit of 2 t air conditioner, where the copper pipes are not covered with fins & told him that small rodents like lizard, cockroach, small rats & squirrel can get inside the outdoor unit & damage the unit or it may even cause a short-circuit.

Mr kulin replied that gap left is because of the compressed fins, that can be rectified by pushing forward the fins & the gap will be covered. He got the top cover removed through his technician & checked the fins but could not extend the fins forward & the gap remained there as it was earlier.

He took the photographs of outdoor unit & explained me that this gap will not create any problem, it will not effect the working of the unit.

To mr kulins arguments, i replied i have checked the outdoor units of 2 t air conditioner & have taken photograph of it. I showed those photographs to him, where it is very clear that the copper pipes are fully covered with fins.

Moreover i told mr kulin that i am ready to come along with him to voltas warehouse to verify the outdoor unit at any place in my vehicle, to which he replied that he has to talk to his higher authorities & will inform me within two – three days but till date i have not received any reply.

I would like to bring on your kind notice that i have purchased brand new goods & not of the seconds quality goods. The defects are brought on your notice immediately after the installation of the both the units, on the contrary it is the duty of the s v refrigeration personals / technician to inspect the goods before installation, which they have not done & have installed the seconds quality goods..

Please note that after installation of both air conditioners i have not used it even for a single day nor i am going to use till both indoor unit of 1.5 t & outdoor unit of 2 t are replaced by brand new units as i have paid for it.

Please take an early decision as i am aged person of 70 years old, i don’t want to enter into long correspondence, i have purchased air conditioners for my comfort not for the harassment. Please take an early decision.

Dear team,

I have been facing service related issues with voltas service. I have complained about ac not working many times but still no resolution till date.

Below are srs that i raised.

1, 6-feb - [protected]
Technician visited and collected 600rs but the problem appeared after he left my home. Supposed to collect 400 only but demanded 600rs!.

2, 27-feb - [protected]
Issue not resolved and also no amc request taken. Technician visited and collected money 1500rs for saying the motor problem. No updates as of now.

3, 05-mar - [protected]
Again no one has called and visited. Problem is not solved still.

4, 08-mar
Called toll free but i get the same story from the agent. No assurance of the resolution of the problem.

Can voltas resolve issues related to customer appliances? I feel like, i un-necessarily bought volts ac, could have gone to bluestar or hitachi products which provides longer life and good support. Very poor service by voltas.

Please address if you can.

Dear team,

My mother purchased voltas 2 ton 5 star standard split ac 245dye on 2nd april 2017 (Invoice number 38682/2016-17/3183). It was not cooling properly and is under warranty period with 1 year free service coupon pending. So i called voltas and registered complain for which "preventive maintenance request no [protected]" on 27th february.

Their servicemen (Who don't even look like technicians, let alone engineers) came on 28th, did some blowing and all and said there is problem in outer unit for which other technicians will come after holi. So why do you send two technicians, none of which is capable of handling issue on his own and he wants other person to get the unit inside. They were so much in hurry that we offered them tea but they did not have it and within 10 minutes technicians were out of home. They didn't even bother to check it properly, and instead of checking by themselves they asked other technicians to come and check. Their behavior was totally unprofessional and not something one would associate with a leading brand of tata like voltas. We thought tata meant "trust", but just like cyrus mistry - we've been proved wrong.

So on 3rd march, another two technicians came, who were not willing to take the outer unit inside. They were asking for someone else to get it inside, then carry it to their service station to check for gas leakage. We were willing to pay them extra to get it inside even if it was in warranty period but they were again in hurry and within 10 minutes, they were out of home. Who rectifies problem in such less time??? They asked us to call someone on phone no. [protected], who is not picking up phone, so how can we discuss and solve it.

Honestly speaking, none of their so called technicians even can make out cause of problem n they keep on attributing this problem to any thing and every thing in world except admitting its their machine (So called voltas branded ac whose name is associated with trust) is faulty and to top of all their customer care is absolutely useless...

All i want is assistance.

I'm subhash reddy from kurnool sir.
We bought voltas inveter ac 9 months ago.
We got a message from voltas to book appointment for first free service. Immediately i made a call to voltas toll free number and booked an appointment for[protected]

It has been 5 days since i booked appointment. We got a message from voltas about local service engineer named harsha vardhan reddy k. We made call to he is not responding properly.
Please consider my request as soon as possible.

Hi team,

Frequently happening every time.
I bought this product on may 2017. There on the problem started.

Every month am complaining about the gas leaking and some technician coming and doing something and telling you wouldn’t get issue again. But after a month same problem repeats. The first technician told me that it was a defect piece and it wasn’t fixed but he tried it to fix. After that problem came and another 2 technicians came and did the same.
Finally concluded it wasn’t fixed and need a replacement.

And my last request on oct18, which is more than 20days, but still didn’t get any resolution.

Is the complaints really consider into account to resolve or it just a formality.

I spoke with 4 customer care executives and lady manager also in these last 3days and they told me that they are taking it as high level ticket to resolve. But no luck.

And the lady manager promised to replace the product as it was a defect piece.

Today morning i phoned to customer care and the lady executive is not have patience to listen my problem, she simply dropped the call saying drop a mail to this email id.

I don’t know you read all the mail or not
My finally word is replace the product or i will go to consumer court to take it on public
I fed up with your dam service and i don’t want to follow up with your customer care daily.

Note: i already spoke with hyd head muzeer
Nothing helped me to fix the issue.

Have been using voltas ac model lyb 1.5 ton from past 4 years which works well without any issue. When needed one more ac this year, bought voltas model 183 sy a week back believing on its reliability. After ac is installed little disappointed as its noise of fan blower is higher than my old ac but cant do much as it is already installed. Within this weeks time used it twice for few minutes and to my surprise when i switched it on it was not throwing the cool air and upon checking compressor is not switching on and outdoor unit is not working completely. Really surprised with such a quality from brand new product and from a tata company. Felt like cheated and complained on the same asked them to replace entire unit with new as i do not like a repair on brand new ac. Waiting for their technicians repose but this is really ridiculous as with my decision another 4 similar acs being bought my friends in the same apt building and its really embracing for me to advising to others also. Its remote also too big and there is no function of self cleaning there is no symbol when compressor on on the indoor unit. Wifi doesn't work. Really disappointed with the product size noise and this early complaint. Wish voltas guys take this seriously and replace the unit with some other model of my liking

Dear sir,

This is senthil kumaran from chennai.

Actually last year i bought one air cooler from sathiya agencies on 15th march 2017 in omr perungudi chennai.

I'm using the air cooler limit use only. But the air cooler inside of the motor with mounting iron rod and all screws are got corrode. By chance any time to broken the iron rod in succeeding days.

Please rectify the issue asap. And also i have warranty period upto march 18 itself.

And i want one information from your side. Are you doing if any corrosion test for that material. Because the all iron material was corrode in my air cooler.
Actually 10 month before only i bought this one.

I hope you understand my queries.

Please do the needful action.

Best regards

I had 400 LTR deep fridge. It stopped working after 2 years I bought. I complaint and they said I had to pay 14000 for the repair (New fridge was for ₹ 25000). When I called customer service they said they can do nothing. They clearly say they have no control over their customer service centres. After all I decided not to get it repaired and buy new one. Obviously of other brand. Worse part comes here. They had just kept the fridge for about a week and did nothing. When I went back to center to get it back to home they demanded another sum of ₹ 500 just because I had to take fridge back. For this they were too eager and impolite. Not professional.
Products of the brand is only good if they are in warranty and after that they don't care about you.
Please don't even buy this brand. Buy on your own risk. I just wanted to make you aware.

Also I forgot to mention many time within 2 years technician visited as fridge would stop Colling the things. They had charged upto ₹ 3000.
