March 11, 2025 at 2:19 pmI ordered an Amazon basics fridge two years ago when their customer service was excellent. They discontinued the product now and have no customer service. My fridge’s compressor broke down and I registered a warranty request since the compressor’s warranty is 5 years. They cancelled the request and asked me to repair the product on my own to reimburse later.After a lot of back and forth, they finally agreed to raise a return request. Unfortunately, I missed picking up the call of delivery person. I asked them to reschedule it and they’ve been steadfast in doing so. They’re now providing a solution to reimburse the value of compressor with Amazon gift card after complaining through National consumer portal online.
Compressor value is not even 20% of the product’s original price and there is no readymade like to like replacement as far as I enquired. And even if I do so, the replacement compressor might not last and is out of warranty as well.
Given the scenario, Can I take Amazon to consumer court and win the case? I’m thinking of edhaakil portal to get started with. What would you guys recommend?

March 12, 2025 at 1:19 amThe result I described in the post is after the complaint in National Consumer helpline. I feel hard done by Amazon’s practices and I’m going to try my hand once more in the eDhaakil portal.
