Dear Ma'am/Sir,

I would like to bring to your attention that I am highly disappointed with the Exide batteries. I purchased the Exide battery on May 6, 2016 for my car (attached invoice for your reference). It's been less than a month and the product turned out to be faulty.

Yesterday, I had a very important client meeting and on my way to my client meeting, my car stopped working at the traffic light. I was stuck at the traffic light for hours and missed my precious client meeting. When the mechanic arrived, he told us that due to the leakage of battery water, car engine has been damaged badly and will cost between Rupees[protected] to repair the engine. He also mentioned that car could have caught fire too. Company negligence could have taken away my life.

The distributor has replaced the battery. However, he has refused to cover the expenses that have occurred due to this faulty product and asked us to reach out to Exide company for the further support.

I was a loyal customer of Exide batteries and always used the batteries manufactured by Exide for all battery based needs - car, invertor . This has shattered my faith, and I will be very apprehensive about using your products in future. I strongly believe that the company will do the justice with
their customers and cover our expenses that are caused by the faulty product.

Photographs of the damaged engine and a copy of the invoice are attached for your reference.

I bought an exide battery for my home inverter m/c on 07 march, 2015. As it's not working properly, i lodged a complaint (Complaint no. #ewba[protected] on 20 may, 2016. But, as after more than 20 days, no one contacted me, on 10 june, 2016, i contacted exide customer care no.[protected] to check the status. Hearing the details from me, the customer care executive lodged another complaint (Complaint no. #ewba[protected], although didn't give the status of my previous complaint. Again no one bothered to contact me so far.

My contact no.[protected].

From the beginning of buying, supplied battery was defective, because Ceiling Fan moving slowly, while in electric line it is moving properly. I complain, and my complaint number is EWEH0525981 dtd. 26.05.2016. Company technician attended complain but no rectification being done by him. And company close the complain.
Please help me in getting my material which is cost Rs. 15250/- and also I want to claim compensation.
Thanks,

Dear sir,

I have bought exide battery (S no m6j5t436489) on 30th jan 2016 from dealer h. S. Automobile, b 33 sector 1, rohini new delhi 110085.

Few days after only battery started creating problem and getting discharged immediately. I have got it checked with honda workshop and they told to get battery checked thorough exide service centre.

I have given battery for replacement/repair to dealer...

Neo power solutions, annapurana road, indore, madhya pradesh is one the dealers of exide batteries. The dealer offered a brand new battery on rent with a charge of rs 30/- per day(Without bill), whose actual mrp was rs 850/-( claimed by the owner). A brand new battery, which was used once by a consumer gets its printed area removed immediately. When asked by the dealer, the dealer openly claimed that yes, "i sell used batteries on actual mrp and it is my business". We have a audio recording of the owner claiming all these things. The battery was not even replaced by the dealer and when we asked to claim the warranty after taking the bill, the onwer refused to take the battery for corrections of the faulty print on battery.
Illegal way of selling batteries on rent without bill. Exide is a renowned player in the market and one can never accept this type of pathetic quality of products in the market openly selling. This particular dealer must have been conned so many customers by doing this illegal businees and its a request that management should take back their delaership from this fraud dealer agency.

Dear sir,

One inva tubular battery was purchased from m/s. Anjali electronics of jangipara, hooghly which has gone out of order i.E., power back-up has not been available since 20.03.2016. The battery is under warranty period of 48 months from the date of purchase i.E. From 20.08.2013. As per inspection report of the service engineer deputed by the exide co. Against my complaint lodged over phone vide no. Eweho[protected] with job no. Eweho[protected] & code -341390 that the battery has become out of order which could not be rectified or replaced as the same was purchased & installed late from the date of manufacture i.E. On 31.01.2011 with the advise to contact the seller and the case has been closed accordingly & informed me through sms on 15.04.2016. While contacting tne seller, m/s. Anjali electronics of jangipara, hooghly, he expressed his inability to do anything in this regard since the battery is still under 48 months` warranty period from the date of installation/purchase as per sl. No.1 of the terms & conditions of warranty of the manufacturer where it is clearly stipulated that the coverage of the warranty period starts from the date of installation of the battery and not from the date of manufacture of the same.

It is, therefore, requested to kindly do the needful by either rectification my dead battery to working condition or by replacing the same by a new battery, as the case may be, within the fortnight from the date of this complaint otherwise i will be force to lodge complaints before the national consumer court with imposition of penalty along with the cost of the battery.

Thanking you,

Your sincerely,

I purchase a battery for Dzire (Din65 battery model ) 1.5 years my battery is dead. A normal life of an average battery is about 3 years and since it was exide the life had to be more than that. I feel cheated because i might be given a second hand battery and now the company is not ready to replace the battery. I would never recommend anyone to buy batteries from exide because their after sales service is pathetic and below the quality standards. cheater company please don't buy exide brand battery service very poor before buy 1000 promise after... You understand what I mean my contact detail [protected] if any brother want talk with me for exide why not buy please call me

I had a issue with my car battery so on 24.02.2016 I called up Bat Mobile for Emergency service. They took the battery and returned is after 2days stating the battery in nonfunctional and needs to be replaced. Initially they even forgot to give me the report and after repeated follow-up only yesterday got the report. My request ID is TR/EX/BST/4329725 . the report is so vague and incomplete that I cannot even ask for immediate replacement as the dealer needs to resend the battery again for checking. This is highly disappointing to received such service from Exide

Dear sir/madam

i have purchased one exide battery for my scooty pep plus on 25.06.13 from battery point (address-shop no-15, modheswari complex, near-l p savani school, b/s-abhisek avenue, adajan, surat). Its working good till 18.06.15. Some times its not working means not start my scooty when i push start button. I visit on 21.06.15 to above mentioned shop & told him to check batetry. They told me that batter is ok, but some problem in your vehicle. I gave my scttoy to tvs authoriesd service station for repair. They told me that your battery is weak. Again i visit above mentioned shop & told him to check battery. They take my battery & give me batter after one day & told me that we have recharged your battery now its ok. Again i face problem in start of scooty. So i visit that shop & told him about my problem. But that guaranty period was gone & they told me that battery is weak & now you have to purchase new battery.

This is clearly cheating with me. When i was gone their shop before guaranty period they told me batter is ok and when guaranty period is expired they told me that batter is weak & you have purchase new one. This is totally unprofessional practice. You are requested to kindly look in this matter & do the needful at earliest.

Hi there,

I would like to get your attention towards my issue. I had purchased one of the car batteries from a local authorized shop "The Auto Spares", Gaya on 08/12/2014 (Battery type: MI700, MFG. Code: A2E4, Serial No. : A004711. I used the same in Tata Indica. After almost an year and two months, it completely stopped working. I don't know what is the issue.

I took the battery to the concerned shop for exchange as "it is mentioned on the warranty paper that the battery is covered under warranty for 36 months" and there I got to know that the battery would be checked by the company. Good to know about the process but what about the speed of the process. I have given the battery to the concerned shop on 03/02/2016 and they had told me that I would be getting a call from your end but till date I have not heard anything from your end.

Could you guys tell me how much time this process would take? and what would be the next step.

Hope to hear soon!

Regards
