MyTVS Forms Alliance with AXA (Update: 100 Outlets Soon)

[cooldhaya]

CHENNAI: MyTVS, the customer-centric car services business division of T.V. Sundram Iyengar & Sons Ltd. (TVS & Sons), and AXA Assistance India (P) Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of AXA Assistance of France, have formed a strategic alliance to provide a host of value-added services to its customers.

Addressing a press conference here on Friday, R. Dinesh, Joint Managing Director of TVS & Sons, said the arrangement with AXA ``is only a strategic alliance and not a joint venture.''

Both TVS & Sons and AXA Assistance India would allow the relationship to progress and get to know each other.

Mr. Dinesh said more often than not the focus of all existing services was on the car and not its owners.

Emergency service

MyTVS, he said, already was providing its customers access to emergency breakdown assistance services through a single-point contact. Following its tie-up with AXA Assistance , it would be in a position to provide its customers, who were stranded mid-way during their travel due to assorted reasons, help ranging from travel to vehicle and health and home assistance. “We can now provide global practices in the area of emergency roadside assistance at Indian costs,” he added.

Haha , break down service .
My mechanic is a member and he get calls around pondicherry region for break down.

Even if you call , fiat or tata or ford or nissan service they eventually route you to tvs- at the end you never know its tvs service person .

The reason for my laugh! , many funny things happens regularly .

Some times after repairing at the spot the customer refuse to pay up saying i am a member and after consulting with tvs ppl they agree to pay up for the work and charge customer nil - tvs pathetic service in billing (the small argument with customer would be avoided and inturn he will praise you tvs)


funny break down (by my mechanic)
1. went about some 45 kms to find a lady driven santro puncture and her reason was car is pulling right and does not go straight.
2. Went to attend a sumo break down and inturn they turned off the service quoting their vehicle is new and should not be towed up and also need a tata mech only to attend at the spot - tvs or the help line number could be specific.

3.lot of linea stalls after hit a poth hole so hard . - ecm need to refreshed and works fine
4. even a nissan micra once stopped , and the customer expected to taxi him for free of service - tvs should elaborate to customer or the mechanics.

5. Break down will be attended at free of cost for platinum member - some calls at 1 am in night asks to replace the spare for puncture.
