This big warranty offer awaits >the customer even at cloth shops where the salesman will remind you that there >will not be any exchange after washing. > >Of course, these warranties are nice if the shop owners honored them whenever >a customer had a complaint with a product. However, the reality is bitter. >Most often, customers find warranties not being honored. > >Customers who are encouraged to buy something after believing it is covered by >warranty later realize that shop owners usually give excuses to avoid their >commitments when the customers approach them with defective products. So they >become victims of cheating in broad daylight, according to a report in >Al-Riyadh daily. > >Many customers have had such bitter experiences even at the hands of >authorized dealers of brand products. These dealers use numerous excuses not >to replace the defective items or fulfill their commitments outlined by the >warranty papers. Common excuses include blaming the customer for "fault in >usage," "deliberately damaging the product," as well as claiming the warranty >only covers certain defects. > >Other shop owners ask the customer to take the product to the company or >factory that manufactured it. Fayeza Muhammad, a Saudi woman, recalls such an >experience. > >"I bought an electrical appliance costing SR380 from a shop. There was a >one-year warranty on the product. But only six days after the purchase, it >stopped working, so I took it to the shop," she said, adding that the >salesman's reaction was strange and surprising. "He said the product was from >the manufacturing company and that the warranty was sold on their behalf. He >told me to take the product to the company." > >When Fayeza asked the salesman about the company headquarters or any of its >branches, he replied that he did not know where they were. "I browsed the >Internet and found out the details of its authorized agent in Jeddah. When I >contacted them, they asked me to bring the product to their office," she said. >Fayeza noted that when the product was taken to the office, their reaction was >disappointing. "They said they were sorry and that this was not their product >and a duplicate. I was asked to get a refund from the store," she said. > >She took the product again to the shop. This time, the salesman told her that >the product was 100 percent original but the company did not want to honor the >warranty. > >Salah Al-Johani is another victim of stores' failure to honor warranties. "I >received a one-year warranty when buying an air-conditioner from the showroom >of a leading electrical company. After installing it in my sitting room, I >started it. Its cooling function was superb. After four days, a relative >visited our house. When he asked me to reduce the coolness I could not do it," >he said. > >Al-Johani then contacted the showroom, which sent an engineer. He was told by >the engineer that there had been an internal defect due to excessive use of >the A/C. Therefore, Al-Johani would have to bear the cost of the spare part. >He then contacted the manufacturer and was told exactly the same thing. > >"I have been still using the A/C with the same defect for two years. It knows >only how to super cool," he said, adding that there is no use having >warranties. > >Nasir Al-Tuwaim, chairman of the Consumer Protection Society, said the >organization has chalked out more than 35 ambitious programs aimed at >protecting consumers from being cheated and exploited by businesses. "These >include issues related to warranties and so forth. We are awaiting approval >from the higher authorities. We have drawn a clear road map for each sector," >he said. > >According to Al-Tuwaim, there are at least 42 sectors with reported commercial >fraud and incidents of cheating. "In the near future, we will make an >announcement about the road map and its implementation," he said, while noting >that the society is striving hard to enforce the best programs to protect >consumers. "We prepared all these programs with the prime objective of serving >the interests of consumers and protecting their money." > >[Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > > > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Post message: [email protected] Subscribe : [email protected] Unsubscribe : [email protected] List owner : [email protected] Homepage : http://proletar.8m.com/Yahoo!
