I am Mrs. Lathif from Parrys. On 29.6.2009 we purchased a Videocon double door fridge for Rs.10300/- from CABCO PARADISE (P) LTD, Broadway, (opp.High Court), Chennai 600001. Tel – [protected]. This fridge has given nothing but trouble from inception, and still continuing to be a menance. As soon as we brought the fridge within 1 month the fridge started to heat up instead of cooling. The shop where we bought explained it is most probably the compressor gone. It took 1 week for the compressor guys to come and fix it. Similarly, first year itself 3 times 3 compressors were changed… Unbelievable !

The second year it was altogether a different thing. Day by day the cooling was reducing, at present we cannot even keep a pack of milk overnight without it turning curdled following morning. Past three months, the fridge is used only for keeping mild cool water. Last week I called up Videocon cc. And a technician came. He did a few minutes checkup and said the reason not cooling is gas is over. Mostly the warranty for fridge parts is one year, after warranty everything is chargable. Gas cost Rs.1800, and max. warranty for gas is around 3 months. So I have brought in our local technician next day, and he inspected thoroughly and shown us the problem is gas line blocked, not that the gas is over. Further it seems that it is not a problem which can be rectified. Even if we put in fresh gas, after 5-6 months again the problem will recur. So he is asking what is the point? According to him Videocon is a failure model, better go for LG or Samsung.

We have used a number of fridges in India, and abroad as well. Some fridges we have used for 15-20 years without a single problem. But we never encountered the problems we are facing with Videocon fridge. When I read some of the prior complaints by other Videocon consumers, I understand the symptoms of my fridge is common for their fridges as well. Clearly there is a manufacturing technical defect for frequent breakdown.

So the question I have is what is the use of this fridge, and what is the solution, and how much should we go on investing for the fridge to keep it going, is it worth, or should we dispose of it altogether and buy a new fridge of a reputed brand.. We had a high opinion of Videocon, which is going down when it is giving frustration and starting to hit our pocket now. I mean it just looks like all the parts are of poor quality and put in the fridge till the warranty period of 1 year, after which it is the customers headache to pay and replace the parts. So I hope you will look into this matter and give your solution what to do. My contact no. 044-[protected]

I agree that this Videocon D240 is the worst product of the series i had 3 problems within a span of 3 years.First they charged me for gas charging then after 6 months they changed compressor .Now after six months the refrigrator has started showing the same problem of low cooling .

I also agree with the view that it consumess more electricity .Promoters like Sharukh khan should stop promoting such products.

I was a die hard fan of LG and all their products which i had bought including refrigrators are functioning well.I selected Videocon for being an Indian product, which was one of my Biggest mistake.

So i recommend not to go for any of Videocon products.

I Mrs Komal Lakhani a customer of videocon refrigerator is extremely dissatisfied with your product. During the period of 6 months only we are lodging fourth complaint, which on company's side is very shameful. I kindly request you to please replace your scrap product which is causing a great deal of difficulty in the daily chores for the user.I would also request you to please take the necessary step as soon as possible and expect that u would kindly do the needful.

Videocon refrigerator products are just pathetic ... I bought a refirigerator last year .. since then I have made 3-4 complaints of non-cooling ...

I echo what Anand has said above ... Videocon products are just pain in the neck ...

I purchease refrigerator( videocon D245, double door) last year 2008, but the day they delivered the compressor had failed the same day so they told they will repair the same, but i insisted them to change the refrigerator as it was brand new and was not working, after two days they bought the refrigerator (Dont know whether it is the same or new) after two three months there was a problem inthe compressor as it was not working and instead of cooling itwas heating but after after several complaints a mechanic was at our door step, he said he has to charge and change the thermostat, after that it was working for some time (around six months)but now it is really making a lot of sound and while automatic ON/OFF it is consuming lot of power making my other appliances to suffer,
So i had complained about the same to the customer care so instead of hearing my problem they said it will be on charged basis of rs. 250 for vist and other charges if any extra before seeing what is the problem so i got annoyed and bursted him. then when i checked again with the customer care they say the complaint has been canceled, i am still waiting for their executive to come and check what the problem is some times i think i have made a biggest mistake in purchasing this refrigerator as i have already two refrigerators of GODREJ of 165 ltr single door still working fine for more than 8 yrs, I am repenting on what i have done
so please guys give business and apportunity to such superb service

My humble request to all the people who are thinking of buying Videocon products, please dont buy any of Videocon products, unless if you want to get lot of headache and tension free with their wornderful n world class customer service.

I purchase refrigertors in 2005 from ghaziabad .main problem is now is not colling properly.before one year company has chage gas sylender.but presenlty problem is same.please do the repaire the same on urgent basis.
