so this fan died two days ago at night just when i was trying to get started with working lol.
went out of warranty in may. company stopped offering extended warranty few months ago.
i had a feeling it would be pointless to get it repaired outside warranty but still filed a complaint.
got a call in the morning and it seemed like i would be paying around 1500 rupees including a new pcb and visitation charges.
i mean pcb might not have required replacement but they really do not do anything else but change the parts on the fan.
decided against getting it repaired and replaced the dead fan with a old fashioned havells fan.
two other Atomberg fans at my place are still under warranty and i really doubt they are going to last as long as old style fans. not sure if i would replace the havells with another atomberg next year but for now it would have to do.
really should have taken the three year extended warranty last year when it was available lol. anyways. it seems like company was getting too many issues with out of warranty fans so they gave up on the idea of selling extended warranty. my superfan from many many years ago is still running fine without any issues. though is now noisy at lower speeds. i tried contacting company to see if they can send a technician. there was zero response to all support requests through multiple channels.
