Flipkart Complaints & Reviews

I bought one HP Omni desktop 120-2111 by order Id : OD [protected] from Flipkart on 31st Oct 2012. Product was received in good condition and working fine till May 2013. In the m/o May 2013 I was facing problem with the dongle of cordless key board and mouse, I contacted HP for warranty replacement of my faulty dongle, at that time I came to know from HP (thru mail) that warranty for my PC is only for 1 year and not for 3 year which was confirmed by Flipkart at the time of sale to me. I forwarded that mail to Flipkart and asked for the clarification, flipkart again claimed (thru mail) that warranty is for 3 years.

This dispute is pending since last 3- 4 months, now few days back I start getting calls from WS Retail (channel partner of Flipkart) for warranty issue. One Mr. Anurag of WS Retail advised me to use the PC with one year warranty, when I asked him, why they are writing 3 years warranty on website, he said these are all marketing fundas to sell the product. Actually the warranty is for 1 year only, when I inquired about the mail which I got from flipkart which is stating 3 years warranty, he said flipkart is just a platform to sell the product, and we are the actual seller of this product. He also advised me to not to bother flipkart by writing unnecessary mails on this issue as nobody will entertain you. I told him that I am not going to spare WS/Flipkart on this issue and will file a case in consumer court, he said I am free to go anywhere and plenty of cases are pending in consumer court on their name, their lawyers are capable enough to handle thousands of more cases like this.

Customer support executive of Flipkart always listen my story and promise for callback from their seniors but nobody is responding neither on mails nor on phone.

I am feel like cheated. Companies like WS Retail and Flipkart are looting people openly.

Flipkart is selling goods by

1. Misleading advertisements and false representation.
2. Cheating by giving false promises.
3. Deficiency in after sale service or not abiding by warranty clause.
4. Harrasing customers thru channel partners.

How we can stop this??? kindly advice how can I get the warranty support or else I need my money back which I have paid for this pc i.e. Rs. 31743/-

I ordered a Helix watch from flipkart.com and the seller was WS Retail.. when delivered, i discovered that the strap length was thrice that of a normal starp- 17.5 INCHES!

This information was not provided on the webpage of watch and when i intimated as such to WS Retail, i was told they dont "have an exchange policy for watches!".

I have been cheated and i dont understand why they would have an option such as "item not as described" in their complaint section when they never clearly intend to cheat customers.. I wont shop from flipkart after this incident and i want this particular item exchanged ASAP

I have attached the webpage of the item in question

Hi Friends,

I placed an order yesterday with flipkart for beauty items.
The payment was approved, and the products were packed by the seller.

Suddenly i got to know that the item got cancelled by the seller.
There was no justification also given for the same.

Please do not order in flipkart! Jabong is the best !!!

Thanks,

I have bought one mobile from Flipkart.com on 31st July 2013, they have given me the Blue Dart
Courier tracking id on next day. But till now that tracking id is not activated. They are not cooperating with me. Flipkart is not delivering the product on time, and also not cancelling my order.

I urge to everybody not to buy from Flipkart. It is totally worst site, which changes its offers and discounts very frequently. And also not delivering the product on time. They are totally cheaters.

I bought a wireless router on July 27, 2013 and got it delivered on Monday,July 29, 2013 Order ID: OD[protected]. Only when I started setting up the router I realized that my Internet service provider(ISP) does not support the router that I had bought(The router supports ADSL technology, my ISP is supporting only DSL technology). There is a 30 day return back policy from flipkart, but when I called their call center, they are not ready to take it back. I even told them I will buy a new product from them because the one I got is of no use to me. They didn’t agree to that as well. The only reason that I used flipkart was because I had got a flipkart e-voucher from my organization. Had I bought this from a shop, they would have taken it back if I tell them my ISP is not supporting this router, given the fact that I was ready to take a new one. Forget the 30 day return back policy,I was not even asking for a refund, any other shop would have shown a basic minimum courtesy for this.

I have bought a Nikon D7000.Order Id is OD[protected].Placed the order on 15th July.
1st of all got the delivery after 8 days(On 27th July) of schedule date(19th July) and the product delivered was defective.I've raise a request for replacement in Flipkart,regarding this incident number is[protected],on last Sunday.They told me within 2-3 business days valuable inputs will be given to me but no one is contacting with me.I'm calling Customer Care everyday and everyday the are saying wait for 24 hours.!
They made joke of the whole thing.Bought a camera for 54k and now the picture coming from it is totally dark and after taking the pic it's showing "ERR" in the display of the camera.Camera is useless to me.I'm requesting them for replacement and they are delaying everyday by one 1day for giving inputs from their side,they not even started the process of replacement.I'm Attaching the snapshot of :

Dear Mr. Rajiv Kucchal,

Does you people always do the same with each and every customer as you have done with me. I booked a Samsung Music duos S6012 phone over flipkart with WS Retail with showed the costing as Rs 5299/-.

1. First of all wanted to know the valid reason for cancellation of Order.
2. If your company cannt provide the phone at the price shown and booked then why the hell you people book the phones or any other product.
3. this is a pure case of cheating by FLIPKART and WS RETAIL.
4. I am Ready to Wait for some more time for the phone, so you can deliver the same by 5th August 2013.
5. I dont think so that this letter will reach you at all.

6. Flipkart CEO has Questioned the Forbes India for their comment, but Mr. Sachin should see the things going on in his organization first of all, then poke his nose in others opininion.
7. Flipkart has written in mail, i can buy the same product with other vendors as well, but let me tell you Flipkart People/ Employees that for Loyalty you should provide the same product and at same cost booked earlier.

PLease i request Mr. Rajiv and Mr. Sachin to resolve the issue, and if you cannt provide the Product then its your wish to do so. but you will loose out the Customers.

Regards,
Mayank

I purchased a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 from Flipkart on May 30th. The offer mentioned in the website was for 15% cashback on Note 2 on using your HDFC debit card or ICICI credit card. The cashback will be done on or before july 25th.
I paid through HDFC debit card in full. I am an educated person so I made the purchase after reading their cashback terms several time. When I did not receive the cashback until today I called on their no. And they told me the you paid through axis bank card. I replied that I made the payment myself and I know which card I used. He accepted that the payment was made through HDFC debit card but the offer was only on ICICI credit cards and he can't do anything about it. He also said that if you had not received the cashback then why didn't you called earlier. I replied that the cashback was to be done on or before 25th july that is the reason I waited until now.
Flipkart is clearly doing a fraud with their customers. Please help me get my cash back.

I'm Niladri.I have placed an order for Nikon D7000 on 15th July and it Should have been delivered within 2-3 days,i.e within 18th July.Today is 26th July yet I haven't got the delivery.Everyday since last seven Days I called Customer Care and the representative told me that it'll be delivered within next 24hours or 48 hours.But it's not delivered yet!!They made a fun of it!

I bought two memory cards from Flipkart which were delivered to me on the 12th June 2013 and I started using these only after the 03rd June 2013. Since then it always hanged my phone and I had to continiously switch off and switch on the phone. Later I noticed that images in my memory card were not displayed in the Gallery and I was not able to save anything on the memory card. To my surprise there was not read/write access on the card. I tried to format the same however it did not allow me. I could have understood it if it was only for one of the cards. However, it is the same for both.
I then decided to call Flipkart to report the issue on 15th July 2013 and the executive post collecting host of information said that he will be arranging the replacements in the next two days. I waited until today and called them up again. This time the executive informed that the earlier information was incorrectly provided and Flipkart is not going to provide the replacements and hanged on me. I later called up again and it was Pasha where the call disconnected again post me describing the issue. In vain I had to again to speak to Chetan who hanged again on me. Later I got Rakesh and immediately asked for a supervisor. After a long 20 mins wait I got through to Bhavya, who was literally not interested in actually knowing what I want to say. However had loads and loads of sorry and policy explanations that they will watsoever not get my cards replaced.
Once there is a commitment made to the customer that has to be kept.

I purchased apple iphone 4s. it delivered on 30th june i was out of station . I opened the box on 5th july. Phone did not get switch on. I report Flipkart for the same. Their Dealer had 10 Days Replacement policy . but after they are lingering the matter and it no decision is taken yet. so I wanna file a case against the Flipkart in Consuer forum.

i placed an order for Samsung S4 phone vide order no.OD[protected]. on july 7 2013 The company was to provide me the phone within 2-3 days but they informed me after a week that there was a courier issue and they would reship it and i would receive it by 24th july. i rang them about 8 times to know about the order. they kept saying that it is being processed but on 20th july they said they are cancelling the order as they are unable to ship at my address while they have sent orders at this very address a number of times. now they are saying that they will take 12 days to refund the amount into my credit account. i feel cheated.

This is regarding a milagrow tab purchased from flipkart with order no Order OD[protected].


The tab has been recalled by milgrow nearly 4 times in 3 months for repairs.

The first time it malfunctuned was in just 3 days after purchase. Which was
an accrlorometer failure. According to flipkarts policy the product has to be replaced if found faulty. But inspiye of many emails to flipkart they didnt replace or refunded the amount.

I was told by Mr.sunil yadav from milagrow that only a software update was needed..but a repair was done on the tab. The same can be confirmed by my emails to flipkart and milagrow.

This time my tab went dead due to battery failure. And to my surprise
mr.Yadav blamed me that I damaged the usb connector that resulted in
battery failure. That was very childish allegation from a reputed name like milagrow

Again tha tab wad dispatched and sent to me with many internal repairs and
shabbily assembled back.

I got the tab today and upon checking it acts more weird this
time...restarts itself, abnormally types anything upon typing,And many more
new issues.

I am tired of asking for a new replacement or a refund now.
But I just want you to know that these type of issues must be soleved immediately wisely rather then blaming customers for negligience which only
gives a wrong name to a reputed established name like milagrow.

I myself is an IT post graduate(U.K) and have worked for PC world united
kingdom in 2009.

And I definitely can say this that this is not the way you deal with complaints.

If possible take care of the complaints and grievences..... good name and
sucess will automatically follow.

Thanks and regards

This complain is of Flipkart.com which is online shopping site.I had ordered a book 'Nerds" .The language of book mentioned on site was English but delivered book was in other language, I called them and told about this wrong delivery, they said return the book and correct book will be delivered .
I again confirmed that whether they have English , they said "yes", then they assured me that they will deliver right book but again second time they delivered wrong book.This time I asked them to return money in the form of check ,but it's been 3 months I didn't get any money.Whenever I call them they say give me 2-3 working day and then nothing happens.
This is really frustrating and bad experience .

Hi,

I ordered for a Mobile (Motorola) and a Camera from Flip kart in the month of May.
Now the Mobile that I have received is not working, I called up Flip kart and they told me
as the Return Policy is for 30 days which I have exceeded, they Cannot do any thing.
They told me to get in touch with Service Center. They gave me the Phone number for the Service Center.
I told them that I have ordered this Phone for my mother and she is too old to Run after the Service Center
policy, they said that there is nothing much they can do about it, I asked my sister who is in Kolkata
to take the Mobile to the Service center, Now this Service Center People said that it will take 15 days for them
to Repair the Cell Phone. Now I have paid the Full amount to Flip Kart to get a New Mobile but the one they gave me
is not working, Can you please help me as I am in Chennai and My mother and Sister is in Kolkata and they don't know
what to do with it. My Phone No[protected]. My email id is [protected]@gmail.com. Any help will be highly appreciated.

Sir, I have booked three books on 3 july 13 and flipkart online service showing that it will be delivered by 06 july. But today is 11 july and Still I have not received the same. After contacting their costumer service they are telling that it will reach by more 2-3 days like that. How much time one can wait ? If some exam is coming and somebody has ordered books form them then it is how much great loss of time for waiting for false claim of flipkart service. pse take action for these fraudulent companies.
