Hello whirlpool team,
With loads of disappointment, frustration and irritation - finally, i'm writing to you guys...
This is in regard to the complaint which i did on 08/11/2019, sr number - bg[protected]. Post which your technician came and checked and said that the tap needs to be repaired. He mentioned that it would take 2 working days and he shall visit us again and repair the same. We waited for approx 4 days for him to revert since we dint hear anything neither from your customer support nor the technician.. So we called back to check wherein the technician mentioned that it would take some more time... Hence we waited with much patience for nearly 2 weeks and then again we follow up and get to know from customer support that the model which we bought (In 2018) doesn't exist anymore hence it's difficult to find the tap but still, they would try to figure out the same. (This even made me wonder that if your model is doesn't exist anymore then what you expect from your customers that they should keep spending 10/15k every year and keep buying the new models...??) its none of our problem whether the model exists or not... It's your job to keep the backups and spare parts available to a certain extent of a time period)
Well anyways - post nearly 4 weeks (1 month of time) after few follow-ups from our end we get to know that the tap is available which shall get replaced at the earliest and it will take hardly 10mins to do the same). Your two technician come in the noon and take approx 1 hour to fix one tap but we did observe that the technician was unable to fix the tap in the acquaguard as he had mentioned over the call. He tried really hard and used a knife from our kitchen to fix something in tap.. It did appear to us that somehow he is managing to fix and leave from home and in this process, he did open the acquaguard completely wide open and fixed the tap with few scratch marks in front (Please refer to the pic attached) and post this he left; giving us the bill of rs 610/-.
The tap was fixed and was serving the purpose for a while but in the meanwhile, we noticed that the water started leaking from the joint where the technician had opened the acquaguard to fix the tap from inside. We wanted to tell you that till date the water continuously leaks; its more than a month since the water is leaking... (Hereby attaching the video for the same). We called and spoke to a technician and informed him the same where he mentioned that he would drop in check on the same but as expected he dint turn up and neither did he called back..in fact, he stopped responding to our calls!!!
Finally, i got the number of mr sundhar phone number[protected] to whom i sent the video of leaking water from acquaguard to which he responded that we stay in which area.. After seeking that information he remained silent for one week. Again it's the customer who has to follow up with the pathetic service of whirlpool team. As a false commitment - we got the same response that it will solve the same day and technician calls saying he shall reach in an hour or so... It's going to be a week now and still, your technician's one/two hours are not over.. And it's again the customer who has to follow up to which the technician stops responding.
Please find the below two technician numbers who came together to do service on behalf of whirlpool
Technician 1 - [protected] (Srinivas)
Technician 2 - [protected] (Mansoor)
I'm any of the customers across pan india who is facing this issue and i'm sure that there are many who would be facing the same but not finding time to pen down the experience they are facing with the post-service of the products bought from whirlpool and especially when it is as critical as drinking water.
Retail industry - been there and done that so i do know and understand what is meant by customer service
Would have really appreciated if you guys would have even focussed on the post-service of your products which needs to be taken care once the customer has bought anything from your brand. Looks like you guys are more into only selling, selling and selling rather than even look into - how to retain your customers!
Do train your team/technicians who are just so least bothered and just not doing there work for actually what you have hired them for...
While purchasing your product we even got to know that there is free service as well - for which also we raised the query and your technician calls up and once they get to know that its the free service then the technician never turns up - what the hell is this!!! What kind of training you are giving to your technicians - do they see the cost involved and then they go to customers place???
Do you guys ever check back from customer support whether the issue has been resolved to customer's satisfaction? Is there any pro-activeness in your team or is it just for the sake of showing off or boosting about your post-service facility while selling your brand - stop cheating your customers please!
Hoping that someone from your team would at least bother to look into this and resolve it at the earliest with due respect to your so-called customer service
