AS on today April 5 do not have a working a/c in my house.
LG customer complaint service, do not have a system to get feedback from customer, whether customer issue has been properly resolved or not. anyone in the service department can close the complaint without actually resolving the issue
ANY ONE READING MY ISSUE. PLEASE LEARN FROM MY EXPERIENCE. DO NOT PURCHASE LG PRODUCTS. LG AFTER SALES SERVICE IS BAD
If you purchase LG products, pray that your product do not give any problems.
I am left with NO OPTION but to take legal action against LG.
