Samsung
reviews and complaints

I purchased a 32" samsung tv 0n 23aug with the assurance that samsung will come and do a wall mount install within a week. It has been two weeks and still no service. I have called their service number every day and each time, some one will be give me the assurance that a service engineer will come in 24 hours. Many such 24 hrs have come and gone but no intallation. If you buy a samsung product please get the dealer to coordinate with samsung and do the installation. Other wise get some anti-acid and heart medication ready. Rs

I purchased my Samsung 42" DLP from Best Buy in November 2006; not very old and I only watch the TV at night when I'm lounging in my room. A few weeks ago I noticed a few white dots that appeared on the screen. Then each day the amount of dots progressively became more and more. I got online and googled the problem and found there are MANY people with the same problem. Complaints have been made against Samsung and they won't recall or do anything with this TV to fix the problem. I will NEVER buy a Samsung product again. I spent $800 for this TV and it should last way longer than this. There are some people that have the same problem with a TV only a year old...there is something wrong with these TV's and Samsung should step it up and recall them/replace with new given the amount of dissatisfied customers.

Buyer beware; don't buy Samsung...at least the DLP Tvs.

I bought a Samsung tv model HLT 5075 SX in april 2008, now in july 2009 a lot of white dots appeared in my screen. And more and more every day. I search in internet and found out that a lot of people have the same problem with the same tv and brand. I wrote to samsung and then called them to know If there something to do, If they will recall that product. They told me no recall and now that the warranty is over, the only solution is to call a technician and pay for the repair. I read in internet that can cost about $300 to $400 to repair that problem. That's why I want to submit a complaint against Samsung and more to help other people telling them not to buy samsung product.

Dear sir/madam

Samsung services is very horrible & terrible. I brought SAMSUNG SGH-M200 on 19-01-2009. Near about 1 & half month later, I faced a problem of rebooting. Then i went to Samsung service center his address is ASC H.D. ASSOCIATE B-104/1 Nirala nager Lucknow
(U.P.), INDIA . I submited my hand set at service centre after near 2 month i got my hand set when i asked What is problem, they told me that BOARD had been damaged. now i have same problem again.its services are miserable . pls make a proper action against them.

Samsung appliances SUCK. The French Door refrigerator as beautiful as it is, we should have bought an LG. Since at the time they didn't make a matching dishwasher, so thankful they didn't, we purchased an LG. No problems with the LG. Now, for the 3 other Samsung appliances; let's start with the Microwave, I went to open it about a month after purchase and the entire handle can off and hit me in the face. They fixed it no charge. The Fridge's pantry drawer top snapped off about 8 months after purchase by just pulling the drawer out, what it was designed to do. They fixed it but said there would be a charge because Samsung did not warranty plastic. Finally there was no charge. The Freezer's ice machine has to be my far the most annoying thing that I'm stuck with until we move or the whole fridge breaks. I'm guessing the latter will happen first. If I forget to shut the ice maker off before bed the thing wakes us up with no fail every night when the ice gets jammed and it makes this loud knocking sound. The convection oven, works great except for the cleaning cycle. It out of warranty so I just clean it the old fashion way. So after spending over 4k I'm not happy. Advice to anyone who is in the market for new appliances, stay clear or Samsung.

In the month of may i bought a 32-inch hi-definition samsung lcd t. v. i bought this t. v. because it had superior picture quality and a lower price tag than the other televisions in the showroom. my t. v. malfunctioned in the month of november. the screen blacked out. the same day this happened i called the samsung warranty office and set up an appointment for a samsung representative to come out and check the t. v. the representative arrived a week later and said the t. v. was defective. he then wrote up a report and told me to call the store i purchased from, to discuss getting the t. v. replaced. when i contacted the store, they said they had no record of the report from the samsung representative and to call back in a week. i called back and they still had no record of the report but they did show that the representative had come out and checked the t. v. since the store had no report from the samsung representative i decided to contact samsung directly. i contacted samsung and since they were a major corporation i believed they would have excellent customer service. unfortunately this was not the case. when i first contacted samsung, a customer service representative said he would contact the store i purchased from, i waited but 15 days passed and still no one contacted the store. i proceeded to call samsung back and they told me it was the stores problem. the store said that it was companies fault and was not their problem i am left with this defective piece no one to help me. i will never trust this samsung company ever in my life. samsung has the worst customer support of any company i have ever dealt with. it is so bad i will never buy any product from samsung and i recommend no one else does.

My name is Thomas Andrew Pereira.I had purchased a Samsung SGH-I450 mobile on 14-11-2008 from a local deler with warranty. Latter on 28-06-2009 i faced a problum with my mobile.It started displaying "White Display". Only white color was displaying on the screen.
So on 01-07-2009 i went to a near by Samsung service center at given address -MASTERCARE SERVICES, B6, Shroff Appartment, Sodawala Lane, Opp. Axis Bank, Borivali(w), Mumbai-400092.Tel:022-[protected] /022-[protected]

When i went there the representive told me that they need to change the display and it will take 1 week time for the job.Also they gave me a job[censored].
After one week i called the service center and asked about my mobile, so they said that the display part which is suppose to come from Delhi have not arrived. So they canot repair my mobile.Fro mthat time onwards i have been calling and personally visiting the service center and inquire about my mobile. But they keep on giving me the same answer. I even called samgsung toll free number [protected]. They have registered my complain and also given me one number [protected]. They are also not able to solve my problem.
I am a Business man and i have to keep contact with my clients. I am facing a major problums because i don't have any other way for the purpose. I am metally tired of calling the service center and i have decided to go to Consumer Forum.
So please look into the matter and please give me some response.

Dear sir,

I, dinanath prasad, purchased a samsung mobile set on 08 august, 2009 from a local mobile shopkeeper with proper receipt in dumka, jharkhand (india). Just one week has gone only, that mobile became inactive and hung. Even it is not taking start. The complete details of that mobile set is as follows-
Samsung dual c5212 imei no - 353350/03/040557/7 353351/03/040557/5 s/n-rw3s648295y
Battery no - ab553446bu, s/n: lc2s513ts/4-b

The shopkeeper is taking no response and telling that this is the manufacturing defects of samsung company which it could not be replaced here..

In this connection I want to draw your personal attention towards the fact that since the mobile has been purchased only one week earlier, please manage to replace it with another new set otherwise I would be bound to take legal actions against samsung company and take the matter to consumer court also-

Yours faithfully,

Dinanath prasad

I bought the refrigerator brand new. It looks nice but it doesn't cool. The refrigerator temp doesn't get lower than 40 degrees and the freezer stays around 68!.
Called Samsung on 8/16/2009, 24 hrs. after I plugged the unit in for the first time. They created a ticket but now they are dragging their feet in "finding" a service center.

As of now I can only recommend to stay away from this Samsung refrigerators. I read several other post claiming a DOA unit but I hoped it wouldn't happen to me.

Spare yourself the agony and don't buy Samsung. If they ever come out and repair/exchange the unit I will update this post.

This is regarding one of Samsung service center's non-professionalism and incompetency.

I had been to this service center in Sect 14, Gurgaon and had submitted my phone beat 450 for the problem of phone hanging, I went there before my warranty period .The phone was kept for 3 days saying that if they will resolve the issue they will return it in 3 days else they might need to send it to Delhi service center .

Finally I got my cell back after 3 days saying that phone is ready, But to my disappointment the phone had the same problem the very next day .That depicts that they could not resolve the problem and didn't even test the cell before giving it to the customer and just master reset it .

I went back and then my cell was kept for 15 days again saying we will send it to Delhi center now and again without any testing cell was given back to me and the cell was suffering with the same problem.

Now my cell is out of warranty period due to their negligence and I have lost my trust on this service center and because my cell is out of warranty period I can't go to any other service center as they might charge money.

Please take a look at this as the customers of Samsung have to keep visiting the center due to this kind of ineffeiciency .If this negligence would continue definitely people will stop referring samsung products due to improper maintenance in servicing centers.

I have all the Samsung products at my home Samsung refrigerator, Samsung Digital TV, Samsung AC and Samsung DVD player. I am lossing the trust from this company as they have misused the time of the customer, misused his money and provided improper guidance.

I need to get my cell phone repaired free of cost taking my guarantee period into consideration.

I need to reuired cdma to gsm phone on my same modle samsung max sch f679. And also I need pc studio for operating system vista

I had purchased samsung colour tv model cs21t3 chasis no 019632atb04276 ([protected]) on 01-01-03 from sony mony electronics andheri (w) mumbai-400058.

I have bought a samsung guru 1100 mobile ( GT-E1100ZRTINU ) today . After buying it i kept it with me and did not open the battery cover again . after coming home when I tried to open the battery cover to insert a proper SIM, i found it is almost impossible to open it up . After giving much pressure it did not get opened. No technique comes into work to open it up. so for me, now this this phone is useless . I am really surprised and shocked how could this model came into the market .
I am not going to use samsung anymore . And I am giving u guarantee that I will not allow anyone close to me to buy any product of samsung.

Thanks a lot
bye forever

The switch of my 29" Samsung TV started giving touble. I registered a complaint with their service center on 17 Jul 09 - complaint No [protected]. Since that day we have been calling them at least thrice a day everyday without any response from them. The only thing their executive mentions each time are the service charges. And then yesterday they had the cheek to call and take a feedback on the promptness of the service. Can you believe that?
Can this be published in the newspapers so that people get to know the real face of a so called consumer electronics big company of the country?

Mrs Gayatri Pathania

I am writing the anonymously. I happen to work for the executive customer relations department of samsung. Everyone in these forums is always complaining about how horrible our service is, but they honestly do no know how restricted we are with things we are limited to do within our power. Believe me, i take upwards of 40 - 50 calls a day of people who have time and time again gone through repairs on units, been waiting for callbacks, gotten the run around all the time, and i honestly do feel sorry for people when they call us. But there are several things you have to realize when you call us.
1. We work in a 3rd party call center. Samsung's name is not on my paychecks. We represent their products, but do not work for them. And there are a few different buildings that have executive relations department agents in them. So just because you get ahold of a "craig" one day or a "barbara" the next day means that we know who that person is, because sometimes we don't. I know personally unless i know the specific agent who was in the file previously and i know how they work, i don't trust much of what is typed in a file. I always try to verify my own research to assist people.
2. When you call 1 - 800 samsung, the call goes to our general service level agents. They do not have the ability on their level to extend warranties, or handle anything other than repairs, and personally, some of them do not even have the brain capacity to do that right. I spend many hours of my days trying to correct files that have gotten " escalated" to my department. So please, if you are sent up to ecr, we are trying to help you. . (Or at least i try to) .
3. When you call 1800 samsung, and request a supervisor, if it is the normal day time operating hours for our dept between 9 am and 7pm eastern time, you will be transferred to the ecr dept. We are not supervisors, we are agents that handle requests for escalations. And we do in most cases have the authority to help someone depending on the situation. If you call during a time of the day, or on the weekend when our dept is not open, the service agent will make a voc file (3000) which goes into the general ecr queue. Please realize, on a day to day basis there can be as many as 1000 files put into that queue. And there are only 2 agents in my dept, in my building that go through those files. So, your best bet is, trying to call us during normal operating hours if you want to speak to someone.
4. People have to realize, that if we went through and extended everyone's warranty to cover repairs, samsung would be a bankrupt company. Ecr is certainly within our ability to extend warranties for people who are slightly out (I. E. 90 days) , or for those that have had multiple repairs (I. E. At least one previously within that last 6 - 12 months) . So please, if you call up to us, and you are 3 years out of warranty, and have never had the unit repaired, spare us your cursing at us. We are not the ones who made the policies, we just enforce them, we are the messengers. If i had the authority, i would gladly cover a repair for you, but in that case, it could be my job, and i don't need to be unemployed.
5. Yes, we do get scored on call quality and call times. I don't like rushing people off the phone, but my job quality depends on it. So if i am being brief with you, its not bc i don't care, or im being rude. It's because that if i don't meet the average handle time for my calls, that could also be my job. So please, bare with us.
6. If you have contacted samsung within the past month, you may have been made aware that we have been having severe computer issues. That reason being, we upgraded to a new system, and believe me, that agents you are speaking to are just as frustrated as you. We had very little training on this upgraded system, and most of us, including myself had our hitches along the way. That being said, the waiting times to get through to our department have drastically increased. You usually didnt have to wait more than 5 mins to get through, and i know this bc we have a system up at all times that show how many calls are waiting and for how long. Now the waiting times can be as long as up to 20 minutes. All agents are trying to get to the cx's as quickly as possible. So please, when you get on the phone, we know how frustrated you are. . . We are almost at times feeling the same way.
7. We know how bad some of our servicing centers are that service such things at blue ray players. . Believe me. Time and time again i get calls about how people received units back damaged, or they have been waiting a month, or the service center lost their unit. Believe me, we know. And i sit there and wonder most days why samsung still continues to use their services after so many complaints. But, once again. . We don't make the contracts, we are just the messengers. . . Don't take it out on us. . . Those who call us up and are nice to me. . Tend to get alot further.
8. Don't get on the phone and start demanding this and demanding that, and being all over rude. I pride myself on my very very small number of supervisor calls, bc i am for the most part a very level headed person, and i know my job inside and out. I do know how to talk appropriately to people, and if you treat me with the same respect that i give you as soon as we get on a call, i can guarantee, i can most likely assist you within that time, no supervisor needed. Not everyone in my department can say that, but not everyone has a 92% call quality either. So please be kind to your ecr agent. It will get you alot further.
9. We know about all the problems with our units. . . Especially dlp tv's. And i get just as frustrated as you when i get a call from someone who is 2 years out of warranty, with a dlp and it has completely broken, isnt turning on. . . And has been diagnosed as needing a new light engine from a service center. . That is not a cheap repair. . . And my department is not authorized to assist. We know about all the problems with these units,. . I deal with them all day, everyday. But until samsung decides to make a recall on them. . . We have to keep making people angry, and yes. . . It does suck. But if you are having a dark vertical band running down either the left or right side of your dlp unit and it was made 2 or more years ago. . . Give samsung a call. It may be a light tunnel issue, and we are doing free of charge repair for those.
10. If you are out of warranty, do yourself a favor and avoid the lower level tiers. They can't help you. Call [protected] to go to ecr. And please. . Please. . . Please. . . Before you call us, find a copy of your receipt! And when you have an agent on the phone, ask them the steps of uploading it on the samsung website. . . That is the quickest way for us to view it. . Because if we don't have your receipt, we go off of the date the unit was manufactured (Which populates by the serial number) . Samsung does not keep track of serial numbers and where they were sold. We do not have that info in our system. So the only way to verify your warranty terms are with your receipt! Keep them for everything you buy! And if you already have a service file set up, you can upload your receipt to us in a quick easy step. Scan it into your computer and save it as an image file. Go to www. Samsung.com and go to support. Under support you will find repair self tracking. Click on it and go to the page. Choose option 1 to enter in your transaction number (Which will be either a 3000 or 400 number) and your phone number you provided us when you called. Click continue. This take you to the file. Scroll to the bottom of the page, click upload purchase receipt. Browse your computer for the file and hit attach. There you go, its send to samsung.

> ok, i hope this blog helps some people. We are not the bad guys, simply the messengers. Please consider that the next time you call us. .

Why I will never buy another samsung product!

Here's the horror story:

Jan 03, 2009
I live in a tiny condo with no place to hang-dry my clothes
And I purchased a stacked washer/dryer from samsung and 5 months later the dryer stopped heating up.
The clothes would tumble but I couldn't get anything else than air fluff.

May 27, still under warranty, I called samsung and they told me they would call me back withing 24-48 hours
To schedule a contracted technician to look at it. They never called back.

June 1, I call back and they say I have to unplug the dryer for 10 minutes and
Plug it on again to reset it. Say it should work. It doesn't.

I call back, they say to try it again but for 30 minutes this time. It doesn't work.

They tell me again they would call me back withing 24-48 hours
To schedule a contracted technician to look at it. They never called back.

June 4, I call back asking to schedule a repairmen asap.

June 9, the subcontracted local servicing company sends 2 guys over to check it out.
They can't find the problem. They take away the dryer to their lab for further
Examination.

June 11, they bring the dryer back, and say it should be ok. They leave.
I try every setting available, simply doesn't heat up. I call back and tell them it doesn't
Work. They tell me they can't do anything else and will mark it as "not serviceable"
So samsung can send a replacement.

June 12, I call samsung for a replacement. They said I don't qualify, the dryer is
Still being serviced. I argue that the servicing company said cannot do anything more
To fix it. They say they will call me back within 24-48 hours. Guess what? They don't.

June 16, the servicing contractors leave me a voice mail to tell me they have the part to fix
The dryer. ? What? I call back, ask why they didn't close the ticket in samsung's system.
They say they will. They seem very confused..

June 17, I call samsung and ask for replacement since ticket should be closed by now.
I get put on hold for 20 minutes. (I found later that in the meantime
They called the servicing company to convince them to find the problem)
They get back to me and tell me that the service company has found the problem and that will come and fix it.
I tell them it won't work 'cause they spent a day on it and couldn't figure it out. Samsung says it's 99.9% sure
They will this time.

June 21, unsurprisingly, the service company comes back is not able to fix it.

June 22, I call samsung and ask them to send a replacement now! They say they will send
The request to the department and call me back within 24-48 hours. Guess what? They don't!

June 26, it's been a month now and I spent probably a total of 6 hours on hold over the phone
With samsung without my replacement dryer being shipped. I've had to re-tell my story all over again
Each and every time because nobody keeps track of any details or who spoke to me the last time I called.
I verified many times they had my phone number and it was correct, just to be extra sure!

Now I call back samsung and they tell me the service company still hasn't closed the ticket.
I call the service company and they tell me they did close it.
I call back samsung and told them they did.

They say they will call me back... By now you should have guessed they didn't.

July 2, I call back, they say it's written in the system i'm set-up for a replacement.
I ask when? They don't know, because the department is not yet ready to get a unit from the
Warehouse.

July 3, I call back, they say they will contact me starting next week to set up a delivery date.
They never called.

July 8th, I call back they say the woman in charge of the replacement is gone for the afternoon.
She will call me back tomorrow.

More than one month later, I still can't dry my clothes and don't know when
I will ever be able to. They never return calls, they are clueless and when they're not
They don't tell you the truth. It seems like they want people to forget about it and buy another one.

What a bunch of losers... I bought a new lcd tv last week and guess what? It was not a samsung.

We bought a samsung fridge. Atleast most of these complaints received return phone calls. Our fridge started acting up about 1-2 weeks before our warranty run out. to this day which has been several months i have never been able to reach anyone other than a computer and have never had a return phone call. the temp. started raising and the temp. gage on the fridge started beeping continuously. That really gets on your nerves. In a few days everything in the refridgerator side was spoiled and we lost everything. we were unable to find anything that would help.you couldn't change or lower the temp because it would automatically change itself and start rising again.after a couple of days i woke up and my fridge door was open. when i opened the door to look in side the pull of drawers were pushed out and would not go back in. When i pulled the drawers all the way out the back of the fridge was frozen. it took 2 days to thaw out all of the ice. when it was finally thawed it has frozen from the inside where some kind of panel was and had frozen so bad that it had busted the plastic on the back of the fridge and pushed it inside of the refridgerator. there was ice frozen solid inside of that panel around multiple wires and something that has some type of alluminum covering on it that looked like alluminum foil. Well i dont have a lot of money to fix this and fix that so im not sure what i'll do to replace it. My income tax money bought that piece of crap to begin with. This was back in 08. Well, now this is july of 09 and i still have not received any phone calls. I have been using an old fridge in the mean time that is an old mcgommery ward brand. they havent been in business for years and that fridge is probably almost as old as i am and it just tore up this week. so now i have nothing. It must be nice to sell a load of crap for high prices and it doesnt even last to get any wear and tare on it. i was just wondering if YOU PEOPLE CAN SLEEP AT NIGHT AFTER SELLING THIS GARBAGE? by the way, there are no techs. for samsung in the united states. they're just a bunch of rip offs. You might possibly get a call from a tech working for a different co. Me- I'm still waiting on a call.

You'll believe it when you see it.

I purchased a dtb-h260f digital set top box to convert digital signal input (June 12 2009) from over the air local tv stations to a first generation 1080i 32" lcd panasonic display. This box is touted to upconvert digital to digital hd and i believe as it is designed, it does a good job at video hd upconversion. However, upcoversion necessitates the use of a hdmi cable that conducts both video and audio. When working properly, the audio is amplified using hdmi and the end user enjoys a wider range of sound effects and an enhanced vocal clarity. The following explanation is a true account of my experience when the hdmi audio-output failed in this "magic box" and i had to engage samsung to repair it under warranty.

The manufacturing date, determined by the serial number, is august of 08. The date of purchase was december 9th. This is important because as you will soon read, these can and often times are, manipulated to stop warranty repairs until warranty periods expire. But first let me begin at the beginning.

I contacted customer service, explained my problem and agreed to let them send me a shipping label in the mail. It never arrived. A week later, called back, they offered to email it, i agreed, never arrived. Called again asked for supervisor, was transferred to "executive customer relations" and they explained policy, over and over. Finally got a shipping label and sent it off to the service center in riverdale nj. Was returned unrepaired. Called again and this time i stayed on the phone until the agent emailed me the return shipping label. I sent it off again and then the following happened.

I received an email that the unit had been received and would be repaired and returned within 5-7 business days. Two weeks later i find out that someone had manipulated the information in their computer to cause my repair to go on hold. You see, they put in the correct manufacturing date but changed the purchase date to kick the repair until the information conflict was corrected. The solution, upload the invoice proving the purchase date constitutes a warranty repair. Keep in mind, at the time of this writing the warranty peroid of one year from the manufacutring date of august 08 is still two months in the future. A person with common sense would do the warranty repair and be done with it. Not samsung.

Asked for a supervisor, was told a supervisor would review my file and call me with in 72 hrs. Two plus weeks later began receiving voice mails on my home answering machine indicationg that there is a problem with the purchase date. This is after i had uploaded the purchase invoice. Are you starting to see how calculated they have become in supporting the questionable products they sell? I will fill you in on a couple of other practices that allowed aproximatly two months to pass and the second repair has yet to be compleated. I might mention here that samusung policy is after three repairs, a replacement unit will be sent instead.

Upon calling in to customer service, they ask for your phone number. They then ask for you warranty "transaction" number. They review your file and then come back on the line and ask what you want. Each time you send the unit in for repair your transaction number is updated to a new number. If you are using a tranaction number of a more recent event they dont see the information from the other repairs. Please note, they get a lot of unhappy customers, a lot. So be forewarned that they usually are not the most compassionate and understanding folk on the planet.

I recommend that you use the phone companies thee digit code to cloak your phone number. At&t uses *67. I found that this company can automatically identify your phone number and send you in to a phone loop, or just disconnect your call. At times of high call volume at the service call center [protected] the calls will dump and you can spend upwards of five hours trying to get through. I did this because i was starting to become suspicious that the motivation of these folks was to expire the warranty period before the repair could be compleated. When you get dumped or put on hold, simply call back in to the wrong department and have them transferr the call. This circumvents the automated phone number tracking through their computer.S

To review, flagging problem phone numbers, manipulating purchase dates-requiring "verification documentation", promising to send shipping labels when they never arrive, not requiring the service center to repair the units adequately, and gererally lying cheating and stealing our time to problem solve these creative ways know only to samsung customer service cause most of use to never consider the samsung name ever again in any upcoming purchases.

Hoped this helped you reduce the time you will have to invest to get your samsung produt repaired. Good luck.
