“I would never buy a Philips again, mine packed up...”

Written on: 02/09/2008 by ljd999 (1 review written)

I would never buy a Philips again, mine packed up inside 5 years so was therefore out of warranty, nothing I can do about that apart from tell people about buying a Philips TV. E-mails to the so called "customer care" have yet to be replied to. It wasn't cheap, my less expensive Toshiba on the other hand is still going after 15+ years.

The Philips DVD recorder (3 years old) is also on the blink, but that's another story.

Written on: 10/01/2008

I had the usual fun and games trying to get the internet company I bought it from to replace it but they eventually did just before Christmas.

Now in January 2008, two weeks after the one year warranty expires, the one off switch breaks.

How do Philips get away with building a TV that within 13 months has two major failures. Incidentally, I have another Philips smaller flat screen TV which also has a broken on off switch. (read more)

I expect a tv to last more than 21 months, and I would expect the manufacturer to accept responsibility for replacement of a tube at this early period. (read more)

“We bought a Philips 28" Widescreen Dolby Pro Logic TV...”

Written on: 16/06/2007 by darrenforster99 (8 reviews written)

We bought a Philips 28" Widescreen Dolby Pro Logic TV in 1997. Then this TV was simply amazing, top of the range, superb quality. Philips regarded their tubes as being the longest lasting tubes and offered a 5 year guarantee on the it. 10 years later this TV was still going strong, only one problem we had with it was a small capacitor went (the TV went off and smelt of burning when this happened), luckily a friend of ours is a TV engineer he looked at it, and just charged us £3 for the new...

My Philips flat screen has suddenly gone blank (a black screen) so I just get sound! Do you know any good TV repair men?

Written on: 02/10/2005 by michael atherton (1 review written)

I bought a Philips 30PF9946 TV online. It has a VGA connection on it, so I connected my computer to it, and after about 2 minutes it had the computer fonts still on it, even when I changed it back to the TV source. It also has got permanent colour stains on it from TV channels. I turn it off at night and put in on again in the morning, and they're still there! (read more)

Written on: 15/09/2005 by MJ5 (1 review written)

I thought I was buying a quality product from a quality manufacturer, but after just 11 months our state of the art Philips TV won't even switch on, and trying to get Philips to take responsibility is a nightmare. I have spent hours on their 15p per minute phone line. Twice they have arranged to collect it for repair, twice I've taken time off work, and they still haven't collected it. Even if they do fix it, they will only guarantee their work for three months. If they were confident... (read more)

Bertie's Response to MJ5's Review

MJ5....I'm very sorry to learn your TV failed after only 11 months when nowadays the norm seems to be at least 5 years trouble-free service before any breakdown. And that's with lesser known brands, leave alone a Philips - a top company I've great respect for as it can still provide spares for my almost 30 year-old reel-to-reel tape recorder.

<br>If arrangements made to collect your TV were not honoured, then a contract was broken and you should have redress. Get after them!
