    Default Whirlpool washing machine woes

    I purchased a Whirlpool washing machine in November 2007 in Mumbai. I
    filed a complaint on June 8, the mechanic came and found that a part
    needed to be replaced. After numberous calls, finally on August 7 ( 2
    months later ) they decided that the machine needed to be replaced.
    Now, when I call up customer care, for the machine status, they refer
    me to a number where either no one picks up the phone or it is busy.
    What are steps that I can take to get the replacement quickly? Don't
    these companies care that customers are unhappy? I'm thinking of
    filing a case in consumer court, please advise.

    Whirlpool has worst after sales service in the industry. I am victim of of
    whirlpool antipathy when my refrigerator got busted in searing summer heat last
    year and horrible days I spent barking on phone inspite of so called AMC I had
    for that product. A month later the refrigerator was repaired.
    Now I advise everybody not to buy whirlpool products.
    Generally we have consumer good of all make and brands in our homes and you can
    judge yourself who has the best after sales service.

    I agree Whirlpool provides a nasty service after sale, and those who are
    Whirlpool washing the service person will convience you for AMC and another
    product called strait he will it must be fixed with the water inlet pipe so that
    it will reduce the soil substance in the bore water and it cost Rs. 1800/- and
    once in 6 months a liquid will be refilled in that, I purchased it and 6 months
    over no body turned called up that guy no responds finally opened that product
    to see what kind of liquid in that it only a pastic cylinder with small hole in
    it for the water to pass through inside some magentic substance placed there is
    provision to fill liquid. I was a "JACK ASS" that day, one day WHIRLPOOL will
    look into the mirror to find its as "JACK ASS".

    I would suggest you to cover up all your discussions in writing so that there is
    sufficient documentary evidence to support your case.Even after telephonic
    conversation, pl confirm the same in writing.Do not wait for the reply from
    Company or their vendors.This would give you advantage to seek claims or
    compensations.

    Default Whirlpool service very very tricky

    I purchased a whirlpool washing machine on Sept.12, 2007 at Visakhapatnam. In April of 2009 it stopped working, I registered a complaint and within 2 weeks they fixed the machine (under warranty), again in June it broke down, again within two weeks they came and fixed it. In August it broke down yet again, after one month they replaced the digital control panel, september 11l (was also replaced in April) with a faulty one that didn't work. They came the next day to say that we needed another replacement. The warranty was scheduled to run out on September 12th, my husband was calling the local office daily two times for the repair and I was calling the main number in Chennai. I was assured that this complaint was registered and the part cost would be covered because my complaint was pending from August, but the Visakhapatnam office said we would have to pay 3,800 rupees for the part! They purposefully lied and said to the main office that the complaint was not made by us until september 23rd. I am so upset and ashamed of them. I refuse to give in to their corrupt and dishonest practices. Yesterday I bought a new Samsung machine and traded in my Whirlpool for only 500 rupees!!!! I advise that anyone thinking to buy a Whirlpool product in India, better think again. Many Many people are getting ripped off!!!

    Dear Madam,

    To get any solution for your complaint kindly send a complaint letter to the Head Office of the Co. Send it through registered post and keep a copy of that letter also. Hope you will get any positive response from there.
