All I did was ask a question via email, and a customer service rep cancelled my entire pre-order

So the other day I emailed bestbuy.ca customer service to ask them a question related to my E3 pre-order. Included in the order was a Ps4 Nyko Type Pad, and I asked if it is possible to cancel this single item in the order, and if it was, to do so. 
Key to note that included among this E3 pre-order was a PS4 Fall-Out 4: Pip-boy edition, which is now sold out across North America. 
The customer service rep took it upon himself to play trial and error with this order instead of actually knowing what he was doing and ended up cancelling the entire order and losing me my Pip-Boy Edition. 
I have been emailing endlessly trying to explain how this is a bigger mistake than they are making it seem and have only gotten responses asking me to do something about it, not Bestbuy fix their mistake.. absolutely terrible customer service. 
This was the question I asked (a), and the initial response I received (b).
(a) my initial question
Is it possible to cancel only one item of this pre-order? I would like to cancel the Nyko Type Pad if possible, but not any of the other items.
(b) First bestbuy.ca response

Further emails have only received predictable copy and paste responses, explaining that Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition is out of stock, and to check local stores. Completely ignoring the issue I was raising. 
My second email
This is absolutely in excusable and needs to be fixed on your end.
One of the items in the pre-order that you cancelled has been sold out online almost since it was made available (Fall Out 4: Pip-Boy Edition, Playstation 4). Now that you have cancelled the order I have no way of receiving this item. It is sold out in every location. How is this going to be fixed?
Second bestbuy.ca response
Dear ____,
We have received your email regarding the stock availability of Fall Out 4: Pip-Boy Edition, Playstation 4 on Bestbuy.ca.
Our website does show this product as ‘Sold Out’.  It is possible that we will receive more stock of this item however we are not sure when as there are no pending purchase orders through the vendor.  As such, we are unable to provide any details as to when we may have stock available for online purchasing.
Our online inventory is pulled from different inventory than your local store, so provided the item is not a web only item, they may have available stock.  Try using the store stock check (on the Product Detail Page) to view stock availability or contact your local store directly.
Thank you for choosing Bestbuy.ca
Sincerely,

Great reading comprehension. The email wasnt about the availability of the game, the email was about the mistake made by a customer service rep. And no, no more stock is being made available, as Bethesda has said so. Just a terrible, terrible case of customer service.
Consider me, a lost, long-time, customer. 

Very sorry to hear about this ! 
If you haven't had a resolution to this matter over the weekend, please send me a private message with your order number and contact details. I'd be happy to escalate to our Customer Experience team here. 
Best,

  • I upgraded my iPhone 4 from iTunes to 5.0.1. Now everything is gone; photos, contacts, all gone.  It has been restored to factory defaults.  All I did was push the button to download and install.  How can a programmed upgrade to this?  Is there any way to

    Is there anyway to restore back to where I started?  I just downloaded and upgraded, hands off.  But it looks like the phone has been set to factory defaluts.  I saw a message to that effect but then the process continued and I thought it was restoring my data.  Am I in the tank?

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

  • My ipod basically restored itself and all i did was reset it! HELP PLEASE!

    okay, im so aggrivated right now. this is the SECOND time my ipod does this! UGH!
    so what happened was that my ipod froze. no big deal, it freezes every now and then. so i reset it, by pressing the sleep and home buttons and sliding the power off thingy, ive done this before. but for some reason this time when my ipod came back on, it gave me the screen that appears when you first get an ipod touch, you know, the itunes symbol with the cord pointing to it. so i plugged it into itunes, and it says that it has detected an ipod in 'recovery mode' and that i need to restore it, but if i resore it i lose EVERYTHING. and i sync manually, so itll take like a day to click and drag all my songs, and reinstall all my apps. ill restore it if i have to, but i just dont understand why this happened. and its the SECOND time! a while back, all i did was plug my ipod to itunes, nothing different, and it came up with ZERO songs, and ZERO videos. but everything else was there!
    so what do i do? this isnt something that should happen. do you guys think i should contact apple? is there something THEY can do? should i restore it? please help!
    btw, thank you if you actually read this whole ramble.

    okay so i restored my ipod, and reinstalled the apps. except for etchasketch, which said it encountered an error. but all my music is gone. ill resync that manually tomorrow because itll take a while. thank your for replying. but i dont think that the apple support wouldve done anything because my itouch is way older than 90 days. i got it for christmas last year but my parents had bought it in early december. but everythings fine now, i just REALLY dont want this to happen again!!
    oh and maybe it wont because i had just bought a new app, and just installed it when it froze, so maybe something was corrupted. thanks for the help.

    You will Not be able to get rid of it entirely...
    Other is usually around 1 GB...
    A  ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
    First Try a Restore from Backup...
    But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup...
    Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

    i have a problem: every time when i want to download free apple applications in the apple store, apple store asks me which type of credit card i want to use. Why did it ask this question?

    If you are within 14 days of purchase you can still return the iPhone and get the phone that suits your needs, however, I think you will find that no matter which phone you get the content provider will want to know how you are going to pay for future purchases. For Android phones it is Google, and they will certainly want to know.

  • In attempts to reconcile with the recent updates to Apple products/iTunes accounts, I have changed my password and settings on all of my Apple devices.  Still, all of them repeatedly ask me to sign in, and sign in again, to my AppleID.

    I have a Macbook (2011), an iPad 3, and an iPhone 5.  My son also has an iPhone 4, which logs in under my AppleID.  I spent my entire day off yesterday trying to reconcile the issues with our devices.  I had not used my Macbook for a couple of weeks, as I had had to replace my charger for the fifth time in three and a half years-different story for a different time (My last Macbook's supposedly inferior charger lasted the duration of my ownership of it and then some, by the way.).  Anyway, my Macbook repeatedly asked me to log in, alternately, to my iCloud and then my FaceTime. No sooner would I enter my password for iCloud than it would ask for my Facetime password; I entered the password for Facetime, and the iCloud password would be requested, so on.  The text boxes would not go away.  Other programs' windows would not open in front of them.  I searched here and other forums, having moved a FaceTime password request to the far right of my screen & minimizing my Safari window, so as to fully see my search results.  I turned my Mail off and on, no luck.  I logged out of iCloud completely, to no avail.  Finally, I changed my AppleID password.  This seemed to work...for my Macbook.  It no longer asks me for my passwords.  Now, however, I cannot even update apps on my iPad, despite the fact that I have logged out of and back into my iCloud on my iPad.  This is NOT why have staunchly defended my choice to use strictly Apple products for the last decade.  I feel like a Windows user.  I was going to upgrade to the iPhone 6 Plus when my current contract is up in a couple of months, but if this is the future of Apple....
    Anyway, if anyone has answers or a solution, I would greatly appreciate the guidance.  So disappointed in Apple right now. 

    Go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with your new credentials.  If all you did was modify your existing ID rather than creating and entirely new ID, you can choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted.  Your data will still be in iCloud and will download to your phone when you sign back in.

  • Contract not what was agreed via email and phone

    Hi all, new to this forum so I'm hoping people here will be friendly and helpful .
    I recently (Oct '10) changed my phone back to BT and got a package deal along with my existing BB and Vision services.
    Spoke to a helpful guy called Tim Chappell who organised everything via email and phone.
    I have had my recent quarterly bill it is not what we agreed.  I am paperless billing and I cannot see what package deal I am on until my quarterly bill comes through. The first bill was very confusing with lots of cancellations for the existing package and then lots of price shuffling so I could only really see what I was paying on my second quarterly bill.
    I have tried and tried in vain to contact Tim with no response. Live Chat and Cancellations have emailed him to contact me urgently but still nothing.
    All the agreement is in the emails I received/sent so I have proof of the package he did, but what it says on my billing is different so it's my word against theirs until Tim responds to me.
    Sorry for the long rant, can anyone help solve this please?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

I don’t remember these exactly and I tried several times with different options but unsuccessfully. I also forget my email used to configurate the phone. I have the phone box and the bill. I sent you an email with my problem and attachments with the box informations, the bill and the reset request. What to do? You said to me:
    Your request comes from an unrecognized email domain. Apple accepts email requests only from email domains for Apple-authorized carriers.
    Please re-submit your request using your official carrier domain.

    I just got a new iPad 2 and I have lot of questions. I was able to wirelessly link my iPad and iTunes on my PC. I was able to SYNC my email and calendar (new entries only no history), however I have not been able to SYNC Outlook contacts. Outlook has multiple contact lists. Only one has any data. I can't find a way to delete the others and I can't keep the one I want to use at the top of the list. Any ideas?
    I have a question about email. I have several thousand emails in 10 or so days. How can I select multiple emails for deletion in stead of one at a time? How do I designate emails from a given sender as junk or block certain senders?

    the spcs page on this site state which video formats the ipad supports
    I'd suggest converting your old videos to one of those formats
    handbrake is a free program which does this for you
    itunes used to be able to too when I right clicked incompatible media but don't see the option any more
    or maybe it only show when one right click incompatible media and currently my lib don't have any
    about the music then it's odd what formats are they?
    if they are acc protected have you tried to remove the DRM this can be don using itunes as
    apple don't use DRM for music any more
