Class Action S

Anyone interested in a e against Creative for the issues with the X-FI and the clicking / popping issue that hasn't been resolved that they blame on motherboard manufactures, please drop me an e-mail. I'm going to start working on getting this noticed. They've ignored my issues with an AMD chipset and I'm tired of them blaming other companies.
I've sent several e-mails indicating that my issue with the Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe existed (ATI, non-nVIDIA)but they've not responded other than re-installing drivers. I've also contacted a lawyer about a class action suit.
I can have days of good activity but as soon as I remove or install something such as the latest ATI drivers (tonight) the constant clicking starts again. So that's PCI bus?
They've not listened and it's time to take action against this company.
Please e-mail me at [email protected]
This will probably be removed so save the e-mail and spread it to those that have the issue. I'll have a site up as well soon.

Can no longer recommend Fascinate due to non-support of issues - class action time?

I loved my Fascinate when I got it, but the failure of Verizon to promptly resolve KNOWN software issues with known-to-Verizon solutions constitutes something dangerously close to fraud. Like others, I was promised a prompt upgrade to Froyo by a Verizon rep when I bought the phone. Like others. my GPS performance is terrible, with frequent delays of 10 minutes to infinity to achieve a location lock. Like others, I let my 30 day return expire because I was promised a software fix was coming out Real Soon Now, so now I am screwed.
The issue is NOT the delayed Froyo update,the issue is that the phone does not function as promised by Verizon when sold. Knowing sale of a defective product that does not meet its advertised features is fraudulent under the commercial code in any state of the union.
Therefore I am doing some of the few things I can do under the circumstances:
First of all, new buyers are warned that the phone DOES NOT WORK as advertised in many cases due to software issues with GPS, email push, and other features. If you buy it, don't expect it to work. If you are promised otherwise by a Verizon store or rep, be warned that the promises are empty. Be warned that the Verizon implementation of Bing en lieu of Google search and other disruptions of the base Google services makes the phone almost unusable compared to a true Android environment such as that on certain other Android phones and providers. Bing is terrible. VZNavigator is a rip off (and terrible). If you are a lawyer interested in a class action against Verizon related to thi sphone be aware that you should have plenty of interested parties. Personally I would like my service fees waved for the period from September when I bought the phone through whenever-they-actually-make-it-work with debugged software. It is clear that engineering KNOWS how to make the GPS work even without a full Froyo update - they just haven't released a patch.
I wish I could love this phone - but I can't recommend it any more to any one for any reason until Samsung/Verizon fix the software and de-Bing and de-bloat an otherwise excellent piece of hardware. This is EXACTLY what Apple got right, and that Verizon has wrong. A pox on them and their bloatware and BIng and broken search functions. It's like a bad dream. Swapping the hardware out for another Fasicinate won't fix it. I'm stuck.

Do I actually expect to see a suit? No, not really. But, message reads on the first page of the Fascinate forum suggest that as of now at least 4000 potential Fascinate owners may have received enough reasons to consider either a different phone or a different carrier. Verizon execs might have a look over the fence at IPhone land, where there is a mob wielding torches and pitch forks that loves their iPhones (but hates ATT for the poor service experience). Provide even average service and you build brand loyalty that overcomes almost any foul up. Give your customers good reasons to hate you, and they surely will.
Today I drove a 30 mile round trip with a fresh A-GPS almanac and never got GPS located closer than 1100 yards. If it ever DOES synch, it will be good to 10 ft. and stay locked until I go indoors. If. The Bluetooth refused to connect (again). Works great WHEN it actually occasionally works though. The hardware can do it. The software is a bad joke. Is is Samsung's fault? Maybe. Could Verizon provide a timely fix by internal or Samsung resources? Definitely. Samsung has fixed these issues for other markets long ago. The shame is that it takes what could be a great experience and sours it all. It's not about Froyo, it's about having basic features that work. While some of thse phones work perfectly, some combination of hardware and software issues means that too many customers did not receive what the paid for, and they have good reason to be angry with Verizon for the poor experience and callous treatment.

Is Verizon going to end up with a Class Action Lawsuit regarding the Trade-In Scam?

I notice I'm not the first to report this issue. In fact, after reading the horror stories in the community, I'm questioning if going with Verizon Wireless and/or using their online trade-in program was the right thing to do. I see so many other people experiencing the same nightmare, I figure it's just a matter of time until there's a Class Action Lawsuit against them regarding their Trade-in Scam of 2014.
I was lured to Verizon by their promotion of receiving $200 for my iPhone 4s. I pre-ordered my iPhone 6 online on 9/12. Following the check-out, I was given the option to complete the online trade-in program. My iPhone 4s was in perfect condition as it was kept in a LifeProof case since day 1. Being in that condition made it eligible for the full $200 trade-in value.
My iPhone 6 arrived on time. I transferred my data from the iPhone 4s to the iPhone 6. Then ensured the 'find my phone' feature was turned off, all passwords unlocked and factory reset completed. Then I fully charged the phone and turned it off prior to packing into the provided trade-in program materials/envelope.
I was a little concerned about the trade-in program materials/envelope. The envelope itself was nothing more than a padded envelope. It was a pre-printed business reply envelope. No tracking number other than a bar code with my submission id on it and then stamped with the word PROMO. I was hesitant to drop it in a mailbox so I took it right into my local post office. That was on 9/23.
I started checking the trade-in status a week later but the status was 'Not Received'. Another week later, same thing. Finally, I reached out to the trade-in program via email on 10/11. I received a 'canned' response back on 10/16 that I should wait 4-6 weeks for my gift card. That time period includes a 2-3 for inspection and processing from the date of receipt at the warehouse.
On 10/25, I reached out again to the trade in program via email. On 10/26, I received the very same response... word for word. I reached out again on 11/7 and they didn't even reply. I tried calling but got no where by phone. They claim they'll escalate the issue but I never hear back.
I really feel scammed out of $200 by using this online trade-in program. The guideline stipulated that I must use the supplied packing materials and envelope or the promotion amount would not be guaranteed; however, without tracking there is no way to know where the phone is.
Come on Verizon... you lured me in, now do the right thing and send me the $200 gift card I was promised.

I've gone through the same process as you've described with a different twist. They advised me that the screen on
my phone was cracked. They are sending me $36 instead of the Appraised Value of $200. I'm not an Attorney
but I would bet it would be an easy win over Verizon in a Class Action, because this whole process smells
bad. There must be tens of thousands of people getting ripped off and they're not all liars, which is what Verizon would have a judge believe. Contract or no contract, most states prohibit Agreements that would negate consumer protection
from fraudulent business practices.
Verizon may play hardball with it's disenchanted customers and there isn't much you can do as an individual.
This just happened with me on one phone and I'm waiting for news of a second phone that I sent at the same time.
In the meantime I will visit the Verizon Store and talk to the salesperson who sold me the two new iPhone 6's
and see what he can do. I will also contact my local Better Business Bureau office for their advice. If there's no satisfaction, I will keep the phones, stop paying my bill and get a new carrier. They can take me to court, but I will be there first in@ Small Claims Court. I'm retired so I have time to do this stuff, but most people can't, so the best bet is still a
good Lawyer with a Class Action Suit and lots of negative publicity in the papers and the internet.

I am totally disagreeing with you. When you're purchasing a car, dealership is clearly asking telling you that car is sold AS-IS and you even being asked to sign a letter of release form that states that car is being purchased with whatever option currently existing on the car and unless specifically specified no additional accessories or parts are coming with it. BUT and notice it is a capital letter but...it also say NO PROMISES, VERBAL, WRITTEN, OR OTHEWISE BEING MADE TO OFFER IN CONJUNCTION WITH THIS SALE.
And that it what you are signing.
In Verizon case, verbal promises of Froyo availability were made by Verizon sales, tech, and sups left and right. It is time to make those companies to be accounted for their actions.
About 3 weeks or so I spoke with one law firm in San Francisco in regards to that matter and they were willing to open the class action case against Verizon. I was quite busy in the past and hadn't have a chance to speak with them again. I will try to make up some times next week to come see them again and proceed with a case.

I'm tired of waiting too, but your going to sue? get a life. That goes to everyone complaining over and over for drivers etc. I mean make your complaint then get in line. Does anyone here actually think that complaining over and over will make them move faster? I'm sure they want to resolve this issue more then any one of you. They are a large company and reputation is on the line. their own forums must hurt business. Potential customers come here and read and run like heck. They obviously pay little attention to this forum. Or of course it's best for them to say nothing.
Anyway, try to sue Creative, It'll make some good reading. But you'd be best getting a life. It's a whole lot less work to pull the card out of your box and install something else... or better yet use the onboard which you most likely already have. I paid allot for my card and loved it in XP, not liking it so much in Vista.
Quick question, who here bought a brand new Vista PC with a creative sound card which has little to no support? no one? Who here installed Vista on a PC that held a creative sound card? pretty much all of us? Well suck it up kiddies! Unless we are all stupid, we knew the card was not supported. We knew there would be limited functionality... right? Sure we hoped that Creative would roll out something faster then they are, I did too. I'm not going to kick them in the nuts because they have not though.
Get a life, there are better things to do in life. Get some fresh air for gods sake. There will be a fix sooner or later. Creative is not going to pull the plug on these cards. Were they not great in XP? I've never had an issue, I have an nforce motherboard and I use and Nvidia GPU. I've built my own PC and know how to resolve issues. If that means swapping a MOBO or a GPU, then so be it wilma. Whatever it takes right?
Good day and good whining.

Class action lawsuit regarding Android 2.2

If there were a class action lawsuit filed against Verizon regarding the lack of support for upgrades of the Android OS, would you join it? Essentially it would be based on promises and claims made by sales reps at the stores during the decision process of buying the phone and by phone reps that the Samsung Fascinate was to receive the Android 2.2 update "any day now".
As it stands, people who purchased the Fascinate are paying full price for the data package just the same as other Verizon customers who purchased phones from competing manufacturers (Motorola and HTC). However, people who purchased the Fascinate are not getting the same access or experience as the customers who purchased phones from these other manufacturers.
If I purchased a less technically capable phone than the HTC Incredible or Motorola Droid X, I would not expect the same software updates. However, I was told that the three phones (Incredible, Fascnate and X) were all in the same class and all ran on the same version of Android (2.1 at the time of purchase). Being a Black Berry Storm user before and having been limited on my browser experience, I had been following the progress of Android and I had heard that Android was to receive an update that would allow for Flash capabilities which was a huge deal. It was one of the main reasons I switched from Black Berry to Android. I was told that all three phones would be receiving the 2.2 update "very soon". This was in October of 2010.
Due to the Adobe Flash capabilities provided by the Android 2.2 update, Fascinate users are being limited on their browser usage but are not being compensated in ANY way for this lack of access. Also, other Samsung products contracted through Verizon are already come with the Android 2.2 software installed.
Personally (and I don't think I'm alone), I feel cheated by both Verizon and Samsung for not providing what was promised, all the while, people who purchased the Motorola or HTC handsets, have received their updates as promised and are receiving more browser access but paying the same amount that I am. Upon calling Samsung, the rep did not hesitate to blame Verizon for the lack of support.
So the question again is... If there were a class action lawsuit filed against Verizon, would you join it? There may never be one, and many attorneys may say it would be a waste of time, but would you join? I know I would.

How do I submit a claim on the Class Action Apple settled for the iPhone with the water damage indicator red

I stood in line the first day the original iPhone came out to purchase one. The next day I purchased my second iPhone for my daughter and before long we had 4 iPhones in the house. We still to this day have 4 iPhones. Over the years several of my iPhones stopped working, I had paid extra to have the support contract on them only to find the local Apple store could care less. They condemed my iPhones as being water damaged even though I was told the phones did not get dunked in water.
Today I learned Apple settled a Class Action in regards to the iPhones with warrenty where the liquid sensor was red and Apple refused to fix the problem. In researching this I discovered reading the judges order in the case that Apple is supposed to have a 1-800 number setup and a website setup for people who had the problem. I searched the web but could not find the website or the phone number. It appears as if Apple is going to e-mail all people who took their iPhones in for repair and were refused yet I have not recieved an e-mail from Apple.
I guess the question I have is should I assume since I have had no e-mail from Apple that I will not get one and I will not be included as those getting payment. Should just take my iPhones with the red liquid sensor to small claims court or should I attempt to contact the judge in the case and ask him how I can have three iPhones that qualify yet have not heard anything from Apple? I still have the iPhones that Apple refused to repair.

I don't think the settlement has been approved by the courts yet. Apple agreed to pay, but I don't believe the terms of how everything will go down has been officiated yet. When it is, the documents written up about it stipulate they've got to place a notice in USA today and Macworld with the web address for claims as well as a toll-free number. You can see the terms that are being negotiated at wired.com

I play WoW, you enable in-game harrassement by selling-allowing illegeal wow gold selling sites to exist. you are being put on notice that you and they will be involved in a class action harrassement law suit.

you will be involved in a class action harassment lawsuit along with WoW gold sellers and their web sites. you provide them a spot to in-game harass people playing WoW

Hi Carl,
I don't know what WoW is, but it sounds like a website has been giving you unwanted pop-ups. Firefox is like the car you drive to navigate the web, so a pop-up is like you parking at a store and someone comes out between you and the store to sell you something.
What I'm saying is, those ads are not provided by Firefox. There is a tool in Firefox to block pop-ups though. See [[Pop-up blocker]]

Accounts that have been suspended. Class action la...

I believe that Skype's practices may spark a class action lawsuit. Today, my account was suspended for no known reason. No one at Skype could provide me with any reason whatsoever. They said it was their policy not to provide this information. But if I wanted to open a new account, no problem. Really? So what happens to my Skype credit? Oh, sorry sir, too bad. You will lose that.
From what i have seen here on this forum and other blogs, this seems to be common practice by Skype. Suspend customers accounts for no known reason, then tell them too bad if they lose their credits. (Not to mention the dozens of calls I could not receive today.)
Any other phone company would have called me to help solve this issue. Skype offers only scripted customer service and other non-solutions. In the meantime, i am out of business without my phone.
If there are any class-action attorneys out their, please feel free to contact me. I'd be willing to be your first sign up.

Did you ever get any response from Skype. I am experiencing the same problem and agree that a class action suit is needed. Did you ever find a lawyer? I would be happy to join.

Class Action Battery/Chargeing port defect

I have had the incredible 2 for a yr. And had to replace my phone 3 different times, with this last refurbished phone, that I have had for several months, the battery is not holding a charg, so I ordered a new battery, in which I'm still having the same issue so I go and see about a replacent phone again , and come to find out I was a week late before my warranty was up, so my wife was talked into getting a differnt warrenty in which didn't help me, I'm stuck on paying for a phone that I can't use, why should I have to pay out more money to get my phone fixed this is bad buisness after seeing all these battery issues with the incredible should of been a recall and people should of got a differnt phone free of eqal or greater value.... But I forgot Verizon is about the money and not willing to work or fix there issues...besides sending refurbished phones..I have tried everything suggested and still no reslove must be the port...I'm gonna go speak with a lawyer about a class action law suit since I'm stuck for another yr paying on a phone that I can't use...

Read the VZW customer agreement and its section about class actions.
Also why would you file against VZW? They didn't make the device. The manufacturer did.

Class Action Lawsuit Against CreativeLabs and X-FI - mayb

I have been thinking about buying a sound card that is certified for windows vista. However after seeing so many unsatisfied and angry people, no way I'm buying anything for now.
So many people complain about issues with drivers and windows vista; I remember we had the same issue happen when the NVIDIA 8xx video card was introduced. The drivers didn't work. They caused some system to crash, and so on... I also remember a class action lawsuit threat was placed on NVIDIA.
I didn't follow up with it enough to know if the lawsuit was actually set into motion or not, but NVIDIA has been updating their drivers very frequently lately.
I would imagine the people who have purchased creative labs sound cards can easily band together and do the same. After all, a lot of websites have a "Vista Certified" logo for creative labs sound cards like the X-FI version, which obviously are not really "certified" because they don't work. This is false advertisement imo.

This is not an appropriate discussion for our forums.

Class Action Lawsuit

There is an article on CNET news talking about a class action lawsuit that has been filed over the Macbook and MacBookPro display issues. Does anyone know how to tell which displays are at question?
Here is the articles link:
http://news.com.com/8301-107843-9720735-7.html?part=rss&subj=news&tag=2547-13-0-5
MacBook Pro 15" Mac OS X (10.4.9)

The Class Action thus far has not been settled. So while your display in question may be part of the suit, I would not worry about it until it is.

Class Action

We pay are Bills on time. Pay for high end phones.
And they Should work as Advertised.
Gps,No lock ups,
We as a Group Deserve Better Than we are receiving
I think we need to start a class action suit
At least to recover losses
We have been waiting about 25% of our Contract and having Gps not working
25% of the price of our phone == 50.00 x how many Phones?? BIG BUCKS

Oh boy! Another one of these threads!
I'm not against the thought of a class action suit, but instead of lazily posting a thread here hoping someone else will pick up the ball and run with it, why don't you make a phone call or two and find a lawyer to take this on? Instead of telling us it's time to act, why don't YOU act and let us know how it turns out.
Oh, and I've never seen someone post as if they were writing poetry before. You may find this link useful for future written communication:

My 4s worked fine until i upgraded to IOS8. Is anyone starting a class action lawsuit against Apple?

My 4s worked fine until i upgraded to IOS8. Is anyone starting a class action lawsuit against Apple?

I already had all of the features turned off, had 20% free, all transparency were turned off and a few apps were on refresh and now are all turned off.
Like I said, my phone worked fine until I installed IOS 8 and now the screen will freeze intermittingly and runs very slowly when searching it. In other words IOS 8 significantly diminished the operation of a perfectly good phone and Apple will not let you roll it back to IOS 7. They F’d up my phone intentionally to sell us all the latest model.

We will release Vista drivers for the products we stated we are releasing Vista drivers for on the Vista driver chart. To my knowledge we are currently meeting all legal obligations pertaining to Vista driver support. If this is not satisfactory to you you can feel free to contact Customer Support with your suggestion to release drivers for older products. However, this thread is not appropriate for this forum and is now locked.
