Hi Nokia,
This is really disappointing service from a brand like Nokia. I pre ordered the Nokia 7 plus the day the sale got opened i.e. on 20th April 2018 for Rs 26000. I got the phone delivered yesterday only and to the extreme disappointment i was handed over a defective set. The set failed to do the very basic function of reading the second sim card. I have done all the steps i can like rebooting, factory data reset etc but of no use.
Now the problem is that i cant find any solution from Nokia for my issue. Though it was mentioned on the nokia site that the pre order would have a 10 days return policy but when i contacted the customer care today morning, he told me that there is no return & refund policy. The only thing they can do is to check for the replacement of my phone. But again it has the conditions apply to it. The Nokia team would take good 24 working hours ( means at least 3 working days) just to check if the replacement can happen or not. Yes just to check these people need 3 working days. Huhhhh.. Imagine, i have paid on 20th April, waited for 11 days to get my phone, got a defective product and now the customer care team needs 3 more working days to decide if the replacement can happen or not.
I even gave the customer care executive the option that i can visit the Nokia authorised service centre today itself and if the service centre person finds the problem genuine, he can give me a replacement hand to hand. But the customer care executive ( Name- Yash) has his own rules and regulations for the replacement of a defective set.
This is disgusting and frustrating as well. I want my money back and i would never ever recommend anyone to buy Nokia again. It is much better to buy a Chinese phone of Rs 5000 which cant have this sim card issues.
Need your intervention and support at the earliest to get my money back.

Hi, I have the same issue. Just got the Nokia 7 plus delivered today and faced same issue. @Nokia or HMD what is the problem here. Can you check and confirm at earliest. This is really very bad customer experience.
The Phone has come with the 8.1.0 version. Do we initiate RETURN ?
So, after 3 days of hardwork and multiple repeated calls to customer care, i have finally succeeded in getting my defective set picked up. Will have to wait for 3-4 more days to get the new set. Hope the new set works
Hi, I have the Nokia 7 plus and Sim2 not working. Requested Refund and they said that I need to visit the near by service center for Software update. This was a gift to my GF and has turned to be a worst experience for me. Secondly the service center does not have the latest software update :-( ....
Now what I should do..?? I have been calling these guys repeatedly and till now no update of replacement or refund....Nokia its a way to GO
It seems they don't care about reviews...
Nokia always work to deliver quality handsets and they never disappoint their fans as such !
Still facing the issues, then explain your know-how and nokia will surely help you...
best wishes,
First I purchased the Nokia 7.1 from Amazon.in and received the device with Nokia seal opened. So I returned the product within one day with just one call to Amazon. Then I purchased from Nokia.com to get genuine product which ended up with defective one.
