Samsung Offers Flood Relief for Penang Customers

Kuala Lumpur, 9 November 2017 – In view of the recent floods in Penang, Samsung Malaysia Electronics today announced that its Service Centres located in Penang and Kedah are participating in the company’s flood relief campaign to provide support to affected customers in the form of free repair services for Samsung appliances and devices damaged in the torrent.

“In line with the company’s commitment to enrich people’s lives and promote social prosperity, the Samsung Flood Relief Campaign consists of inspection, cleaning and repair services as well as replacement of parts courtesy of Samsung. For the next two months, we will strive to help our customers through this predicament and as much as possible revive the affected appliances and devices so customers can once again return to a life of convenience that comes with Samsung products. As we are expecting an influx of repair requests, we hope that our customers exercise patience during this period and we wish them the best as they recover from the floods,” said Mr. Lee Sang Hoon, President of Samsung Malaysia Electronics.

From now until 31^st December 2017, selected Samsung Service Centres located in Penang and Kedah will attend to the repairs of damaged Samsung products caused directly by the flood. For repair services of In-Home Products (television above 32-inch, washing machine, refrigerator, and air conditioner), customers are first required to call Samsung care-line at 1800-22-8899 (for mobile devices) or 1800-88-9999 (for other products) to book an appointment. Samsung authorised technicians will subsequently make house visits to carry out inspection on the affected products.

For Carry In Products (mobile devices, vacuum cleaner, microwave oven, air purifier, television below 29-inch, and audio home systems), customers are required to send in their affected Samsung products to the authorised Samsung Service Centres located in Penang or Kedah, where Samsung authorised technicians will then attend to the repair request on the damaged product.
