Purchase stove in December 2020. I have starred experiencing problems basically as soon as 1 year warranty ended. I have no oven as it doesn't heat up. The front burners don't heat up now. I have been contacting customer service every 10 days and they keep telling me that it's escalated to another level and someone will contact me in 36 hours. I don't have any repair person in my area that will touch Samsung brands so I can't get anyone to fix it for me. I want my full money back and a new stove. Please please help meBusiness Response

We purchased a Samsung fridge (model *************** serial #********XXXXXXX) less than a year ago at ****'s. One day a few weeks ago, when we closed the door of the fridge, the shelf inside the door shattered. I have no idea how this happened - it seems a jar jostled the plastic past the breaking point. The door was not slammed. This was totally normal use of the product. Since then, a crack has also developed in one of the upper door shelves as well. I have never had this problem with any other fridge I have owned. Clearly, the material used is not durable enough for the purpose. I fear that further breakage in the future is highly likely. Upon contacting Samsung, we were told basically that these parts are not covered by the warranty, and that we are welcome to purchase replacement parts - which are surprisingly expensive. I feel that this is extremely poor customer service. The fridge otherwise works well, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to let everyone I know that it is not a product worth buying if this issue cannot be resolved.Business Response

Bought a Samsung monitor and saw that it had a line of dead pixels originally. Called Samsung and sent it in for a repair. When I got back the "repaired" monitor, there were even more damages than the original one, seen in the photos before. Monitor came back with even more smudged, dead pixels, after getting it "repaired". Called Samsung customer service, but their policy doesn't allow a refund or an exchange. Only offered another repair service. When I asked if repairing was the only option, they said yes. I do NOT want to waste my time sending this monitor in for a repair. I did not even get a chance to properly use this monitor. I am requesting for either a refund or an exchange of this monitor for a new one of the same model.Business Response

-I purchased a Note 20 ultra in July 2021, there was issues from when I took it out of the box, I called ***** to report it and within a few days a replacement was sent. -The microphone on the replacement phone malfunctioned in March 2022. I was told to try the Sim card in a different phone. I did. No problem with SIM card. It was the phone. -In May, ***** advised me to deal with Samsung directly for this. This is when I discovered I had no proof of bill of sale, as when i looked for it on my online account, it only listed the previous phone and not the new phone. -***** did NOT have any record of this at all!! I phoned and was transfered to multiple departments. They had no record of sending me this replacement! -I called Samsung again and the telephone rep was able to verify it was still under warranty and verify a date of purchase. The mfg date was March, but the purchase date was July 27 according to him. He said I can send it in and won't pay for anything and it would be covered. I sent it off through *****. -When it arrived to Samsung I got a text: "SAMSUNG: After inspection, we have concluded that your device does not meet the warranty repair criteria. You will receive an email outlining the reason and cost to repair. Please reply to the email if you wish to have your device repaired or wish to decline repair." -I called Samsung immediately. The rep confirmed my phone IS under warranty. He was aware I don't have my bill of sale and said he would put it through to the service department and I would incur NO FEES. -I got an email from ********* not long after stating my phones out of warranty period. -I called ********* and they said Samsung needs to email them confirmation that its under warranty. -I called Samsung and asked them to do this. They stated they would. Bottom line - samsung now says they wont pay for repair without bill of sale, and now I have to pay to have my phone returned, or repaired or else my phone will be kept and recycled.Business Response

The Samsung washer that I bought 7 months ago from ********* store broke down. I informed ********* and sent a Technician after a week then inspected it last April 18, 2022 and informed us that a part need to be replaced and it will be coming from Samsung Electronics Canada Inc. It may take 4-5 days. After a week, I followed it up to ********* and I was told that Samsung did not deliver the parts yet. After another week again, I reach out to ********* again but the same thing, no parts delivered yet. ********* advised me to follow it up to Samsung thru their phone (X-XXX-XXX-XXXX). After another week again, I called up and talk to "JASON' from Samsung and promised me that he will update me with-in the following week but until now, no words or any update from Samsung. Tried contacting them but I can't reach out to Samsung anymore. After more than 2 months since I informed ********* and Samsung Electronics Canada Inc about this product and for the desired service, I did not get any positive results from them.Business Response

We purchased $12,000 worth of appliances from Samsung in Oct 2015. We have had several issues with many of their appliances but we are seeking some monetary reimbursement for our fridge. The purchase price was 2850.00. We have had the ice maker repaired once but have continued to have issues with the ice maker freezing. This is the same issue that has prompted a Class Action Law Suit with them in the USA.Business Response

BBB File: ******* This complaint was filed with you, and Samsung Canada sent a technician from ********* *** to repair our ice maker on our refridgerator on June 13, 2022. Since then our compress has gone on the same unit. ************** , ***************.
July 3rd our freezer and ice maker started losing temperature. On July 6th the whole fridge quit cooling. A call to Samsung opened an new ticket for the unit to be looked at (ticket # **********). On July 8th the same technician from ********* *** came back to repair the unit and deemed it unrepairalbe as the compressor was gone. On July 11th we called Samsung Canada Exective Customers Relations and was advised that our case was at the refund/replace dept. This represntative, Isna (operator #*****), could not advise on how long it would be before we heard back. I asked if we should go purchase a new fridge and was advised no. I asked her for a resolution for our food to hold us over until the case was resolved. She had none and disconnected the call. July 13th we called back and spoke with Migel and there still was no news on how long. We again asked if we should go purchase a new one and was advised no. On July 15th we recieved a new ticket number ********** via email and it was issued for a repair with ** ********* ******. I again contacted Samsungs Exective Dept and spoak with Diana (operator # *****) and stated our case was already in the replacement/refund dept and to cancel the repair ticket. We will not accept another repair on this unit we want a full refund of $2800 plus taxes. We have lost hunderds of dollars in food along with the amount of time we have spent working on getting this resolved we really should be seeking more compensation.
I have not enclosed the reciept in this complaint as it should already be on file with both you the BBB and Samsung Canada under the orginal ticket number. If you do require this to be sent again please let me know and I will resend it.

Samsung Dishwasher Model DW80H9930US SN 0BDNGDAF501422J - We purchased a dishwasher along with a full suite of appliances from **** *** in 2016. We have had nothing but problems! Our orginal dishwasher that we purchased for $674.98 plus taxes. This was replaced by the store on Feb 29, 2016 for a floor model (listed above) as there where no acceptable same value models available. About 4 months ago the dishwasher would show an error code of 7E. We had a Samsung approved technician (********** ***) come in and check it out and it was deemed the motor for the waterwall needed to be replaced. With some research it seems there has been a service notice put out about this very issue.
We would like to have our unit either repaired or replaced for free or a full refund plus taxes as we need to replace another Samsung appliance (along with our fridge). We spent over $12,000.00 on these appliances and have had issues with our fridge, dishwasher, microwave and stove. We need Samsung to take responiblity for their products and do what is right by the client!

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
To whom it may concern,
We respectfully decline your offer of $1350.00 + taxes. Over the last 5 years we have lost countless amount of hours on the phone with your customer service trying to get resolutions for the many issues with this unit. We have also lost approximately $500.00 worth of food and we spent $2800.00 + taxes on the unit itself.
There are many documented cases on the internet and ******** of these units having issues with cooling and keep food the proper temperature, however, they are still being sold in stores all over Canada and the USA. There has been service bulletins, which I have enclosed, for both the ice makers and the compressors. These units should have had a recall on them years ago!
We will accept $2800.00 plus taxes for the refrigerator as we need to find a replacement. That will cost more than the original purchase price of the unit. We also need spend approximately $500.00 to replace lost food.
In regards to the dishwasher, we have contacted ********* *** and they advised us that we need to have Samsung request for the tech report on the dishwasher. I am attaching a copy of the emails with ********* *** for your records. We would accept a repair, replacement or refund on this unit.
Hoping we can resolve this matter quickly!

Out of good will we will offer $1800 + tax as our final offer to resolve your Fridge concerns.
We've requested the tech report for the dishwasher.Business Response

Samsung received the tech report for the DW and advised ********* *** that we will cover all of the parts in the report but labour is customer responsibility and any other charges too.Customer Answer

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
As I understand, it is illegal to sell products with known defects that can cause harm. Samsung continues to sell fridges and that do not meet the requirements of keeping food safe. Microwaves that spark and catch on fire ( ours did and we have the reciepts for the repairs ). Dishwashers with known defects that should have had recalls.
We will not spend anymore money on repairing these appliances. With that said, if you cover all costs involved in repairing the dishwasher we will accept this offer for both the fridge and the dishwasher.
If not we will need to seek legal advise on getting a full refund on our fridge, dishwasher, and microwave. All of which have had safety issues and/or repairs. If we need to go this route we will also be asking for compenstion for loss in food that has spoiled and revenue due to the hours spend looking for a resolution with Samsungs customer service. These are hours taken away from my own business. We have logged the hours spent on the phone, texts, emails and complining evidence for our case.
Hoping we can come to a agreement soon.
Sincerly,

Please confrim:
1. How do I know if it is an approved Samsung carrier that is collecting the fridge?
2. I will required the approved carrier's driver to sign a waybill or statement stating that:
1 - they are an approved Samsung carrier
2 - that they have collected the unit.
Will that be a problem?
3. Does "to complete the refund process" mean that I will recieve a check of $2070.00 by September 9th, 2022?
Once I have clarification on these questions I will forward you an approval and my address.
Thank you for your quick responses!Business Response

I agree to, a refund in the amount of 1800.00 plus 15% tax totalling $2070.00 and to free parts to repair our dishwasher.
The proper information for the payee, mailing address, pick up address for the fridge and repairs on the dishwasher is:

Contact phone number is ************ and/or email is ****************@*****.com
I reserve the right to reopen this case if the above has not been completed by September 30, 2022. This is ample time to have the fridge removed, dishwasher repaired and refund recieved.
Looking forward to having this behind us!Business Response

The offer is $1800 + tax.
It seems the customer is expecting 15% tax when in fact at the time of purchase it was 13% tax.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: The tech from ****** ******** came to repair the waterwall on our dishwasher and the tech determined that not only the water wall needed preplaced but also the drain pump so it was determined by the tech and the Samsug tech line that the repairs were not able to be done the day he was here and the report was to be sent back to Samsung. This was done under ticket number **********. Would you please inform me on what the next steps will be to take care of our dishwasher? Again a we would like to have this matter taken care of so we can finalize what we need to do about a dishwasher. We have been without one on for over 6 months. Sad considering it is just about 6 years old and the orginal dishwasher needed replaced due to a motherboard issue. 2 dishwashers in under 7 years from Samsung! Looking froward to having this settled once and for all.As for the fridge we are happy with the results and thank you for finally having the check sent to us. Now lets finish up with the so we can all move on and stop lossing money on this!

Tech from ****** ******** called the Tech line Oct 26th and report there is physical damage to the base of the dishwasher. We had approved for part only and labour needs to be paid by the customer for the 2014 model, customer threaten to go to BBB and not paying labour. The next step is for the customer to contact the technician and make labour payment.Customer Answer
Date: 13/11/2022
Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: The tech did not state to the Samsung tech line that there was "phyical damage" to the base. As you know I was present when that call was made. This phasing is making it sound like we damaged the dishwasher. If there was damage it was the 1st tech you sent out from ********* *** who advised us that it was the waterwall that was damaged. This is the reason the tech from ****** ******** had the waterwall parts to start! Yes we refused to pay labour on a repair that did not repair anything. We also have a 2014 model because our 2016 model had a motherboard issues in less than a year of having it and the retail store replaced it with this model. (This also is not our fault)

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: The orginal report was from another company you sent that stated the assembly needed replaced and the 2nd tech you sent said it was the drain pump and the assembly that needed replaced. We had orginally agreed for paying for the labour on the assembly. It would make no sense to repair that while the drain pump is not working would it. Are you willing to repair all issues with the dishwasher at no charge except labour?

The original complaint with the Fridge is resolved. The case was closed 4 times as resolved. For the dishwasher our offer was fair and reasonable considering the age of the unit. The customer has rejected, and our offer is no longer valid for this 2014 unit that is out of warranty.Initial Complaint
