Subject- Replace my Godrej pentacool Refrigerator

Dear Sir,

I have the honor to state the following few lines for your kind and sympathetic consideration and favorable orders.

(A) That I purchased a Godrej Pentacool Refrigerator RF-[protected] GF 28 Ele on 25/5/2004 from your authorized dealer M/s SANGWAN ELECTRONICS, A-3/220, SECTOR-17, ROHINI, DELHI110085.
(B) That on the date of purchase, I really felt myself a proud owner of a pentacool Refrigerator manufactured by such a reputed company “GODREJ & BOYCE Mfg.Co.Ltd, which is having a worldwide reputation for its products. Each one of my family members, relatives and friends appreciated my selection but to my bad luck, all my dreams shattered within a period. When the refrigerator stopped working and I felt dis-heartened.
(C) I have already logged a complaint in June 2004. Apart known as “PCP” was found defective and was replaced and the refrigerator started working but to my utter surprise. The refrigerator again stopped working in July 2008. The cooling totally stopped. A Complaint was again lodged. This time the cooling gas was found leaked. This was refilled and the refrigerator became OK but after a month once again the refrigerator stopped working and when lodged complaint, the PCP, that was replaced by the Service Centre Engineers. By then the winter started and having fed up with its repeatedly going defective,
I have so many losses like all the vegetables destroyed, water bottle not cool and I shocked when I put ice-cream in the frizzier, I saw ice-cream melting in the frizzier.
(D) I have already login so many complaints. My complaints no.(8544), (9590), (10515), (335912), (10706), (207893) . I have been contacted the your company employee. Mr. Gandhi ji([protected]), Mr. Sumit([protected]), Mr. Atul ([protected]),
(E) I switched off the refrigerator for some days and after some days when I switched on the refrigerator I was shocked and found my refrigerator was NOT WORKING at all.
(F) I have now come to a conclusion that this particular refrigerator is having a MANUFACTURING DEFECT and it can never work satisfactorily and hence I can no longer keep it with me and keep facing problems everyday. As such, I request your kind honor to look into the matter and either take back the products and refund the cost of the refrigerator or immediately replace with a new piece, failing which, I shall be left with no option but to file a case with the DISTRICT CONSUMER FORUM for not refund of cost but also for the monetary compensation for unnecessary mental agony, tension and the losses that I had to suffer from the date of purchase till date.

Thanking you and looking forward for an early decision. If my request is not acceded to within 10days from the date of e-mail of this application, the matter would be taken up with DISTRICT CONSUMER FORUM.

Truly yours

Anita Sharma

This is regarding my purchase with Godrej

I bought a refrigerator (G-REF-23D3 D/T/S/RED) from your authorised dealer “Hazrat’s Vision (East)-19 Lalita Park, Vikas Marg, Delhi-110092 on 11th October 2008.

Now, we have opened this packing on diwali occasion and found that it has some scratches on body of refrigerator.

I have registered this complaint with your customer care and complaint ID is 267469 but nothing happed on my request as your service engineer said I can’t solve this problem and you should get in touch with customer care. His cell number is [protected].

I would like to check if you pay Rs.100 for 1kg. Then, does it make sense to take 900gms in same cost? If ‘yes’, then everybody would love to search for a better deal in competition.

Hope you will help me into this matter and care for consumer law and policies.

Kindly give me your email ID. so that i can mail your exact pictures of your product.

With Best Regards
Customer of Godrej

hi,

I am sriram from chennai, recently (7 months back) i purchased a godrej 1.5 ton split AC from a authorised dealer AMSA Vision chennai.

It worked properly for only 10 days and problem started after that, no cooling after that.

I called Godrej customer care and they sent mechanic from DK Engineering. They came at 7 PM and done something in the darkness and checked the AC and told gas leakage and filled the gas. This month also my AC is not working i faced the same problem. Again a mechanic from DK Engineering came and told gas leakage problem. Since it’s under warranty they are doing it.

With in 6 months i faced lot of problems from this AC. I think godrej is not manufacturing a quality AC and customer support is also worst.
I called customer care last saturday and registered a complaint. Mr Ramadoss, a customer care executive told he will solve with in 2 days. Since it has not happened i am shooting this mail.

I request godrej to choose a proper person to fit the AC in the consumer premises. DONT send mechanic from DK ENGINEERING . They are fit for nothing.

Now i have only 2 options left out

1. File a case in consumer court
2. Whole unit repacement from godrej.

Finish it as soon as possible.

please sir help me, , , , , dont waste the reputation of godrej...

please contact me [protected]

GODREJ MANAGEMENT IS VERY BAD.
No proper response from high authorities like Pushkar W, Debasish Mukhopadhyay, Ranjit Kumar and Santosh from Local Hyderabad Team. Always their subordinates say that they are in ameeting. We cant catch them neither on their mobiles nor on desk phones.
Dont know why they are punishing customers.

Can GODREJ company look into this scenario once. Dealers are spoiling the brand name in the MARKET.
Hi Debashis,

I have raised a service ticket 541509 during the month of Jan, 2009.
Till now this problem was not addressed properly. Came to know in the month of Jan 2009 from the Technician that Fridge door is OUT OF STOCK .
Daily I call U on ur mobile, Santosh and Ranjit.But no response from anyone.
All Ur Godrej Office no's [protected] or [protected]
Customer Care [protected]
Your people always say that U, Santosh and Ranjit are always in a meeting.
No proper response from the Team.
Fridge is asusual not working, In this hot summer, can u survive without fridge at your home?
Just understand the miserable condition of the customer, who spends lots of money in buying a product and finally no response from anyone.
I really dont know why so many working in Godrej, who cannot solve one small problem.
Will it take AGES for the manufacture of Godrej door. Please clarify?
If you have any humanity pls kindly address this issue at the earliest. I am dying out of patience.
I am suffering from past 3 months.Daily i show so much of efforts in doing calls and narrating the same story.
Thanks, Farzana

This email sent to higher authority...

Hi,

PLS TAKE SOME TIME TO READ THIS EMAIL...

This is Farzana, working as a Manager for Wezen Technologies, Banjara Hills.
Around 2yrs back, we got GODREJ REFRIGERATOR (290L).We got this fridge from Ranigunj branch. And U dont belive we were facing the problems from the day one.

1. Day one droplets started to fall down from all the gaskets---we called customer care no proper response was given.
2. After 1 month, fridge was not cooling, called customer care and they came after one week and changed the choke
3. After 3 months, from purchase, once again fridge was not cooling, they said gas leakage and gas was filled.
4.Immediate to this, after one month, once again same cooling problem, technician said, gas is mixed with the oil and oil has been changed.
5.Same scenario is happening yearly twice or thrice and just imagine what could be the condition of the customer.Technician came and said that internal condenser is a major problem for this fridge and he suggested that to keep the condenser outside. If this the case, wht is the use of getting new model after spending 15K on it.
6.From 2 months back, there is no cooling in the fridge and it gives lot of sound and blurr.
Later we identified, that gasket of the front door is totally disconnected from fridge door and cooling is passing out. Just imagine, wht is the use of fridge when all the cooling affect comes out. All the veg/fruits etc are getting spoiled in a day or 2.
7.Early twice/thrice gas is filled.I have all the papers and receipts with me.

Technician tried to paste news paper on it and he said to remove after one month. Dont u feel bad after getting such a brand fridge to home, is it good to paste a news paper on the main door. Does it look good?

This is really a miserable that after spending so much money and even after so many calls there is no proper response. Concerned person is not in a position to understand the customer problem. Why is the fridge not exchanged?after so many problems. Is it a curse to a customer to get a fridge from GODREJ?

I had taken washing machine and fridge at the same time. Fridge is in AMC coverage.
We also thought to take Oven and A/c from Godrej itself, but after facing hell problems from godrej, i was no more interested in this company.

Pls understand as a human being prospective like now and then fridge does not work and i should call customer care for some temprory workaround.
Kindly look into this matter and your immediate response in this concern is most appreicated.

Thanks, Farzana

As a part of Reliance Energy Exchange program, we wanted to buy RT EON 260 PS 5.2 (LUSH SILVER) Fridge which carries 10 years compressor warranty. Agent told us LUSH SILVER COLOUR is not available, and it will not available in future and insisted for purchasing Red wine colour. He told we have RT EON 250 PS 5.2 Garden silver is available which carries only 5 years warranty. but rates for both the fridge is same. Now when i contacted Customer care, they told RT EON 260 PS 5.2 (LUSH SILVER) is available. Now it seems godrej is trying to sell Red wine colour fridge RT EON 260 PS 5.2 (red wine), as its not in demand. When i called to their regional office no. 022 [protected], they are not giving proper answer and keep on tranferring calls from one dept to another. Its a bad customer service on part of godrej. As colour was not available we had to go for RT EON 250 PS 5.2, which only carries 5 year warranty. The seller code is 1431, application no 1740209/210. Mumbai
