I Purchased a refrigerator from Samsung website on 18th April, amounting to ₹58,440,
Order no 33100412686

The transaction was for the purchase of a refrigerator from Samsung. Unfortunately, the product delivered was damaged, which was confirmed by their engineer during the installation visit. I reported the issue, and after reviewing the photos and other supporting evidence, Samsung approved a replacement.

However, it has now been 15 days, and the damaged product has still not been picked up. Despite my daily follow-ups, I am being given the runaround with no resolution or proper support from their end. I now feel misled and cheated, as I paid for a new product but received a defective one with no resolution in sight.
I have all the email proofs of my conversation and their acknowledgment
