    My 4K smart TV quit working after 16 months. I called customer support and after hours of wasted time all they offered me was a "deeply discounted rate on a new one". You fooled me once. You won't fool me again... Never will I buy another Philips anything. Buyer beware.

    Got a tv from Wal-Mart on Black Friday. Tv went out about a week ago. I contacted Philips. Did what they told me to. Sent pics to them and was told tv is not repairable but is under warranty. They said they could send me another tv but do not have my tv in stock so they want to give me my money back which I cannot replace it for the price of black Friday. Their service is horrible and they will not let you talk to upper management. Always told 24 to 48 hours and someone will contact me. They're rude and not helpful at all. Do not buy Philip's products cause they do not warranty it and give you the runaround. Someone should be liable for this bad product. Very upset.

    I love the TV and it is a 55 inch flat smart TV. I love having Netflix, Youtube already on it and I loved having the games on it, but the games are no longer working because the company put up they didn't renew the contract. All of performance of TV is great. It is only 2 years old but wish the speakers were been a different place. 2015 I had to contact Philips TV headquarters regarding the Microsoft License because of my experience with them in 2015 and if my TV ever goes out, I will go with another brand.

    How their employees handle the problem, I won't buy another Philips TV. And if my TV ever goes out I will look more closure to the brand and do more research in the company. My advice would be for anyone, please research how the company or brand handles problems and their ratings on satisfaction of service, communication. I wish I did but it was on sale and Philips is a good brand, but services are not satisfying. It could be the best product in the world but if their customer service is bad it will take forever to get help.

    I purchased the 55in 4K Philips tv from Walmart Black Friday 2016. After mounting the tv and trying to screencast from my laptop I learned there was a sound issue with the tv. Over the past month I have called them repeatedly to get a resolution to the problem and they constantly blame everything except the tv. First it was the laptop, then the internet, then the router. Finally they admitted that it was a problem with the tv and their fix for this was for me to wait 48 hours for a solution then call back. If no resolution then I would receive a refund.

    So I called back a few days later and once again they are blaming everything but the tv. Now they are saying to just wait until they have it fixed which could be I don't know how long. The customer service center I was speaking to was Funai which I didn't understand because it is a Philips tv. I have wasted at least 6 hours on the phone with them trying to fix a brand new tv. Terrible customer experience and still no resolution to the problem of the broken brand new tv.

    My brother wanted a new flat TV for his new home and asked me to do the purchase for him. I checked out the stocks available in one of the local stores and had to choose from a range of TVs mostly manufactured in China. My only purchase requirement then was for the TV to be 32" as it's the biggest size allowed for the small space allotted for it. I chose the Philips TV because it had a better coated screen that won't kind of smudge when you press or tap on it. The TV was delivered the next day to my brother's house and I set it up myself. It was easy to assemble as I only had to put its table top stand.

    I was a bit worried at first as the main TV may fall but then I later on realized I was not able put in a screw between the top stand and the main TV itself. My brother had the TV for 8 days now and his children love watching on it. It has a VGA, HDMI and USB port so I can plug in an external drive and watch videos from it or connect my laptop to it. I like the colors of the TV and the simple way of changing the settings to own preferences. I also like its audio features.

When you tried to turn the tv volume up, it would automatically go back down to 0 once you let go of the volume button. We called Phillips and they had us go through some troubleshooting that of course did not work. They agreed to send another tv since it was still under warranty. We received the new tv, but the warranty was not extended, and guess what? The second tv is now doing the same thing.

The only issue I have had with it is a few darker areas developing along the top edge of the screen. They are only noticeable when that part of the screen is displaying a very light color or in white.

    A couple of years ago I bought a Philips smart TV solely for the purpose of streaming Netflix. Shortly after, Netflix was not streaming properly. After speaking with tech support for Netflix, I learned I needed an update (newer versions are red writing on white background, TV showed old white writing on red background). After calling tech support for Philips to request the upgrade, I was told that they hadn't programmed any upgrades at that time. I asked when they might, and was told they didn't know. Here it is more than a year later and they still haven't updated the program. I can stream it from our Xbox or phones but not from the smart TV I bought just for that. I am very disappointed with them and it is highly unlikely I will ever purchase anything Philips again.

    TV developed firmware problems only weeks after purchase with TV crashing and rebooting itself randomly. The firmware for this model on Philips website is unrecognized by TV - a year ago Philips support forum said they would sort something out soon. They did. They discontinued the model. I got in contact with Philips support 6 months ago and they put me in touch with a service center who got my details and TV serial number saying he will come back to me when he gets something sorted out. Never heard back from anyone at Philips and there is no online support for it.

    Now the TV has is restarting itself randomly after turning off with remote. Unfortunately due to the limited number sold before being discontinued there is no online help that I can find and the chances of Philips writing a new firmware is probably NIL so I'm stuck with a Philips TV LEMON. No wonder the major retailer I bought it from is no longer selling Philips TVs. All I can say is stay away from anything made by Philips no matter how good the product looks because support is non-existent.

    Less than 6 months since I purchased my Philips 40PFL4609/F7 TV and I have an black horizontal line across the screen. I called customer support and the lady I talked to must have been working from her home because of the loud music in the background. The only option she gave me was to send several photos of the TV with e-mail. Front of TV when it is on and off, back of TV, photo of sales receipt etc. I have to wonder what someone without computer knowledge, camera and an internet connection could do to get their TV repaired or replaced if there is no other option such as taking it to an local TV repair shop.

    UPDATED ON 03/19/2015: Several problems getting Philips Support on the phone and when I did, many calls were disconnected. After several emails and about 1 hour on the phone, I was told they would send me an replacement TV. I received the replacement television today and was expecting that it would be an new in the carton television. ****** BIG DISAPPOINTMENT******* The replacement television I received from Philips is an JUNK television someone else returned.

    What a joke! We bought the TV 12/20/2013 and within 4 months the TV developed a black line in the screen. We couldn't return it to SAMS as 90 days passed. Called Magnavox and they agreed to send us a "new" TV - BIG PAIN! Had to wait for them to send us a box and then go ship it out. 3 weeks later we get the "new" TV. We then see the screen had a huge scratch on it. We thought they were sending us a new TV? We inspected the set and it was obviously used. So... again we call them and they finally agree to send a better set. We argue that they should send us a new one. But they assured us that their re-certified ones were as good as a new one.

    So... they send us a box and we ship it out and 3 weeks later we got the "new" TV. Now it seems to be fine - looks good - cool - but wait! After 5 months of barely watching it several black lines appear on the screen... really? So we call customer service and we are now informed that there is no longer a warranty on the TV!!! Why? Because they state my warranty is only good for one year based off the original TV???? So they sent us 2 defective TVs after the first defective one and the warranty is only good on the first defective one??? What a freaking joke these guys are - they don't care.

    They are in the Phillipines and don't care. No need to argue and believe me I did! They pretend to listen and in a condescending way say "we are so sorry but we aren't going to help you." DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY! Shame on you Magnavox!!! Bottom line? We really think they are taking returns and putting band-aids on them and call them re-certified, then they send them to the consumer hoping they will last past the original warranty. Buyer beware Magnavox Model: 39me413v/f7 are defective! And if you send a new one back you may get our defective one as a replacement! They should send us a new TV, but now we are out $350 bucks and no TV and a lot of hassle!

    I have purchased many Philips/Magnavox products over the years and am extremely impressed by the performance and reliability. First, a CD player purchased in 1984. Lasted many years then I gave it to my father. Next, DVD player purchased in 2006--still performs like new and will play virtually any cd or dvd with great sound and picture. DVD/VHS combo unit purchased in 2010 which is spectacular. Has many sound EQ modes and the vhs picture is just great--which is hard to find in combo players these days. Compact DVD player purchased in 2011 for my youngest daughter and amazingly will play ANYTHING no matter how scuffed up it is. Finally, Blu-Ray player bought later in 2011 which has great sound and picture and adds extra definition to cd's and will play earlier DVD/Audio CD's.

    Furthermore, all of the aforementioned devices' remotes will work on every Magnavox product in the house! Now, this is great product design.

    A word to all Consumer Affairs readers: You need to do the following in order to have more promising results in returning items. First, keep your receipt. Tape it to the original box the item came in. Second, pay close attention to how the item is packed when opening it. Third, when you get ready to return it, wipe it off so it is in like-new condition. Repack the item exactly as it was when you purchased it, even reinstating the twist ties for the cords, plastic sleeves for cords and remote, cardboard supports, etc. Include the manual and all warranty papers. Believe me, this minimal effort is worth it. Then, be cool, diplomatic, articulate, and do not ever put the returns clerk on the defensive. If the returns clerk is reluctant to give you satisfaction, calmly ask for the manager. I have NEVER had a problem with returns when having a receipt and the other steps in place.

And they are not legally obliged to offer any more info as the tv's manufacture date is 2007.

    If it were not so costly to everyone, it would be funny that these are the same issues Philip's TVs had when they were class action sued the first time. Obviously they are buying and using the same low quality parts and still producing the same crap as they did five to eight years ago. I had the same power issues and now having screen or LCD light issues but I was unable to get in the suit because it did not cover 52" and I don't think it covered LCD at that time either. I have a 32" Magnavox CRT I bought in 95 and it still works fine. But now that they are Philips/Magnavox they suck!! What a waste of $2,000. Maybe it is time for another suit. Stay away from anything made by this company as they do not care about their customers whatsoever.

    I purchased the Philips 60 inch HD Smart TV with 240 Hz a little over a year ago. It demonstrated problems from the first, but I thought that it would work itself out. But the problems have become more frequent. Problem number one is the TV (when first turned on) has shadows and ghosts as if there is something wrong with the picture refresher. Problem number two is the TV screen will go black with sound still going. Problem number three is the TV will turn itself off and then back on. The TV does this several times during a one half hour viewing. When the TV is working properly, the picture and sound are beautiful. But when the TV wants to be a pain, it excels at that also. I would never buy another Phillips brand anything. I am getting ready to replace the thing.

    Our 50-inch flat screen stopped working after 10 months of use - wouldn't turn on. It has a one-year warranty. After several phone calls to Philips and Costco, they sent a tech to our house with a part. Didn't work. Two - three weeks later the same tech came out with a different part - wasn't the problem. During these 5 weeks, my husband has made 27 phone calls talking to different customer service reps. All are very nice courteous, but they have no authority to do anything like replace our TV. After 10 or 15 phone calls, you would think one of the reps would have said, "This is ridiculous how these people are being treated. I'm sending all of this history to a supervisor to resolve." But not one of them did. Which tells me this is par for the course with Philips.

    Nothing was unusual after 20 some phone calls from an unhappy customer. They should have taken the TV back, repaired it on their own time, and given us a new one with a new 1-year warranty. I finally asked to speak to a supervisor yesterday, very nice and courteous, assured me we would hear back from them within a matter of hours. I'm still waiting. She obviously has no authority to do anything either. This is our first product from Philips, and it will be our last. Philips is so anxious to sell their products but they really need to think about how to satisfy customers if they want repeat business. Our TV was purchased at Costco, and I'm very surprised they deal with a company with such poor customer service. Costco's warranty kicks in for another year when Philips' warranty expires. I'm sure Philips is waiting for that to happen.

Called and sent all info and a photo to manufacturer, and they got back to me and stated it would cost me $110.00 to cover labor and that I would have to ship it to Ohio and be without a TV for 4-6 weeks. Does this sound like a good deal to you? For a TV that I only paid $300.00 to begin with, and now I have to pay another $110 only 9 months later to fix a manufacture defect!

    I am beyond disappointed and angry! I will never buy another Magnavox product. I work for the service industry and sales.

    This is now a fact of life in the consumer electronics business, since NAFTA and GATT were initiated in the US! The borders were opened up and the electronics businesses went south and east and as you know, the prices dropped dramatically and the quality control went to non-existent. I had been in the electronics industry for over 20 years when those laws were passed and I never thought I would see the day when it was cheaper to throw away an item than to repair it, but now it is here. The reason there are no parts available to repair anything is that most items are manufactured with a pre-planned life span. In other words, they are manufactured to only last a few years and then stop working.

    Most of the time, the actual components used in the manufacture of these devices are intentionally under rated for the purpose they are used for. This is done for two reasons, technology advances so quickly that when a product comes to market, it is already obsolete and the manufacturers need to liquidate the current products so the newest and improved products can be released. Second, this process moves so fast that the manufacturers are only producing the parts for the newest items because that is where the money is made. As long as we keep wanting the cheapest products, this will keep going on. There are no longer any import laws that specify that a certain amount of replacement parts are required to be manufactured to satisfy the need for repairs of these throw-away items.

    On a tech support chat service, the rep (Zach) asked me to complete a static reset on the TV by unplugging the TV from the wall outlet or surge protector. He asked me to press and hold the power button for 20 seconds, then press the power button 20 times repeatedly, then plugging the TV back into the wall outlet or surge protector and see if that helps. No change. There's sound but no screen. When I told Zach that one of the boards could be bad (main board or the T-con board) as many people complained about that same problem and some TVs even caught on fire, he said that unfortunately, the chat service is for basic tech support and they will not be able to tell exactly which parts may need to be replaced.

    He offered two options: first, he provided me with a link to access authorized repair/service centers in my area and gave me this website, tvrepairpros.com to find a servicer near me; and secondly, as a loyal Philips customer, he then offered me a certified remanufactured product at a discount with a number to call, 1-866-771-4018, should I decide to go with this option. I asked him how come they don't know which board is causing this problem when they have had that same issue and subsequent question numerous times.

    32-inch Philips Magnavox TV - I shipped the TV UPS as I was instructed to do. You guys received it on August 7th. I was then told a new TV would be sent in 10 to 15 days. I have called every week, sometimes 2, 3 or 4 times and got different answers. I asked for a number to Corporate; they would not give it to me. Finally, I got to speak with a supervisor. He told me there was a mishap with the order and as of today, they are still telling me 10 to 20 days. This is the 17th of September. This has been going on since August 7th. Come on, people. Ship my TV. It doesn't take that long to ship a TV out. FedEx runs 24/7. So come on and send me my TV that you owe me. It's not my fault the TV just quit. I'm tired of getting a different answer and date every time I call. This is crazy and right now, I would not buy another product from Philips/Magnavox and you have very rude people working for your company.

    Philips 32-inch TV model #32PFL5332D/37 was attached to wall with bracket that we purchased from Best Buy. The TV fell off the wall from the plastic grid work on the back of the TV set and broke. I called Philips and they stated that it wasn't covered under their warranty/extended warranty either, so we took the TV back to Best Buy and was told that it wasn't covered under their warranty either because we installed it ourselves as to them installing it for us. They said all they would do is give us a discount on another TV. If this TV fell off the wall and killed someone, then what? Please stop using this TV and remove it from your wall(s) before someone gets hurt/killed!

    I purchased a 37" Magnavox LCD TV, Model 37MF231D on 01/28/2007 for $884.08. I still have the receipt. In March of 2010, it stopped going on unless we tried several times, and finally it stopped working completely. We had to buy a new set. We found out later that they had a 25w capacitor where a 35w capacitor should have been. Numerous complaints were found online. When we called Magnavox to get help, they referred us to their subsidiary fix-it shops who wanted $200 for the fix. We found out later that it was the capacitor which costs only $2 and took only 15 minutes to fix. What a scam. Now we find out they were doing a similar thing with the Plasma TVs and we're not included in the class action lawsuit. Go figure. They're probably still pulling their dishonest schemes to make more money off the public. They should be ashamed of themselves.

    Hi, I bought a 55-inch Philips TV from Amazon.com for $898 in February 2012. After a couple of months, I faced many technical problems (picture fade, auto turn off/on). I called Philips Customer Service and a technician came over a few times to fix the TV but failed to do so. Philips agreed to send me a replacement TV. On July 27, they placed an order and I was told the process would take 10 to 15 days. Not receiving my TV after 15 days, I called and they told me to wait another 10 to 15 days. I waited another 15 days. Still they haven't sent my TV. I called today (Friday, 8/31/12). Now they want me to wait another 10 days (business days). By the way, they picked up my old TV on July 30th. Honestly I'm tired of all this. I don't trust them anymore. Please help me get my money back. The TV model # is 55PFL5706/F7. Their Customer Service # is 1-866-771-4018. Corporate address is: P&F USA, Inc. PO Box 2248, Alpharetta, GA, 30023-2248.
