I am writing this mail to you after being unable to get any resolution from the whirlpool service team in the last eight days. The service support line was rude to me and did not even share the complaint ticket number with my email id or my registered number.
To give you a brief on my issue:
As per the service engineer, Mr Naveen of Excellent Service, Bangalore, who attended to my machine of 3 yrs old, my premium PCBA board was faulty and required replacement. So I paid Rs. 9731 to get my machine board replaced on the same day. He committed that the machine would function appropriately once the board was replaced. So he replaced the board on May 16th with the new one (as per him). However, after running for 15 minutes the next day, the machine again stopped working.
We raised the complaint to the whirlpool service helpline on May 17th, but the representative didn't register the complaint nor share any customer complaint id. I thought the service team would call us the next day, but it didn't happen.
Finally, however, we reached the service line again, and the representative told us there was no complaint against our machine. How could that happen?. He registered the complaint, but the technician only came the next day and spoke rudely to my wife and my mother that we asked for the replacement of the board so early. To let you know, we didn't make multiple calls or ask to install a faulty part to our machine, which worked for only 15 minutes.
I do not understand what is happening at the whirlpool service centre. Are they putting faulty spare parts into people's machines or gaming the customers?
Now, I am making multiple calls to the service line, but the representative sitting there spoke rudely and said that person would visit and call you, which never happened. So I ask her to share with me the complaint id and tell me in writing that the senior technician will visit our place and give me my machine in working condition, but she is not ready to share anything. So now, I do not have any status on what I should do with my machine, either scrap it or file a consumer court case so that I at least get my Rs. 9731 back and buy a new machine.
We bought this machine in 2018 for Rs. 34, 000. Let me know what I can do with it.
Even dropping a mail to Service Head, CEO and the customer helpdesk no one is responding nor interested. We will file a court case against Whirlpool of harassing customers and taking away people money and installing faulty spare parts.
Thanks and regards,
