Sigh! Poor you. Can tell them they replaced a Samsung TV screen from The Rivervale condo in Sengkang. In my case, the technician had to come 3 times. Ist time to see, 2nd time supposed to replace but came and realised he brought the wrong parts. 3rd time was a few more days later cos they needed to indent the parts. Dunno if its cos Sony parts/repair is more expensive, or they pick and choose who they want to give in. I dunno the terms in the warranty. But if you have it and can confirm this kind of damage is covered, then threaten to bring them to CASE and that you'll bring the 'proof/evidence' then that they do cover such repairs.

BunBun 5 Report post Posted July 26, 2009 Like that also can? It's always better to have documented proof in b/w. E.g; if the repair guy did replace the tv panel before, it should be reflected in a copy where the guy will give you to sign that you have received the repairs in good form that sort. In your case, I think CS don't want to bother about giving service since you guys communicated verbally over the phone so no proof in b/w. Die die, must have it in b/w, EMAIL them & keep all email replies by them if they want to continue to dispute facts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
