* Creative Customer Support Do NOT Have An Official X-Fi Vista

I emailed Creative Customer Support today to ask them when I will be able to order the Official Vista CD. They replied back telling me that they do not have such a CD. What is going on here?Can someone please explain? :smileyindifferent:?Below is the email response:?[color="#330066"]Dear xxxx[color="#330066"]Thank you for reaching us at Creative Technical Support; we appreciate the opportunity to assist you.[color="#330066"]?[color="#330066"]With regard to your issue, you may wish to know that we do not have such

If they were just a little interessted in computing and what the company they work for is up to, they would have known this CD is just out of the door. This is a good example of people that doesn't care?5 cent for what they do at work. And this is Asia support, that works next door to the main office!!?Patetic!!?

  • Creative "Customer Support" Is A Total Joke

    I've had my Zen MX for about 2 months now & have e-mailed customer support 3 times regarding 3 seperate issues. The routine is pretty much the same in every case:
    . I e-mail them with a problem
    2. They scan my e-mail, pick out a couple of key words, & refer me to one or two of the FAQ's.
    3. I respond that I have previously read all the FAQ's and that the ones they referred to had nothing at all to do with my problem.
    4. They respond with "I don't have an answer at this time but your problem will be referred to our "escalation team."
    5. Some one from the "escalation team" suggests that I do the clean-up & reboot procedure.
    6. I respond that I've already done that.
    7. They respond with "you need to update your firmware".
    8. I respond that I've already done that.
    9. They respond with they have no solution for my problem but that it will be referred to the technical people.
    0. I never hear from them again.
    I would strongly suggest that Creative fire all the support people and with the money they save, make some improvements to their products such as:
    a) Get rid of that horrible Centrale program and give us one that actually works once in a while.
    b) Fix the firmware so that music (or videos) in the main player integrate with files in the memory card.
    c) Improve the product so that it doesn't die 0 seconds after the warrenty expires.
    BTW, the good folks on this board helped me with all 3 of my issues...thanks.

    Re: Creative "Customer Support" Is A Total JokeI see they haven't changed at all.
    A couple of years ago I had a problem with the headphones connection on my Creative MP3 player due to it having been dropped. I sent off an email requesting the name and address of their nearest service agent to see if it could be repaired. Their reply was to ask what was wrong with it. I told them to which they replied that it was not under warranty any more. I advised them that I was aware of that and was happy to pay for any repairs. Their answer was that it was not under warranty and could not be repaired.
    Remember that the original question was for the name and address of a service agent.
    From this one can draw one of two conclusions. Either they have no service agents or they are all totally incompetent.
    With nothing to loose I oulled the player apart and with a $.50 tube of super glue and 5 minutes of my time it was up and running perfectly. 8 months later it gave up the ghost and was replaced with an Ipod which has performed faultlessly.

  • Customer Support does not exist at Adobe

    UK customer support does not exists in the UK for Adobe.
    I have been calling for 4 days. Yesterday I waiting with music on the Customer Support line for 1hr 20mins with music.
    I have called the sales line 4 times and can get through within 2 rings. Adobe this is terrible.
    I then log a call online and I just have pending - waiting verification. I have now also tried the online support "chat" only to get a message that it is not available. Come on Adobe this is awful, it 10:30 on a Friday - why no support al all.
    Rob....

    Cynthia,
    Your situation was the same as mine. I think it is very cool that Adobe allow us 'switchers' (PC to MAC) to get a new license key. It does after all teat us with respect as customer and provide some brand loyalty. However. The problem is that the process and support for doing so it just awful. Terribly awful.
    In my case, and I recommend to you, phone the freephone sales line number and ask to be put through to support. That way it costs Adobe for the time you are waiting on hold. In my case this was several calls waiting for about an hour+ each time. I was prepared ultimately to wait, but not to pay for Adobe help desk disaster. So there is a tip: Freephone sales line for any connection with Adobe.
    Next tip download the 'Certificate of destruction form' and log an online support call and post the completed for in there, signed by you. This is will save you a bit of time. Next you have to phone support, but then you have to call customer service again. So there are several steps you have to go through.
    This all took me weeks and tons of calls so hopefully I will reduce the number of calls you have to make with this tip?
    Next tip. Watch out for the support folk cancelling your on-line support request. I had to repeatedly open calls and they cancelled them!
    Next problem I had was Adobe agreed that I would just pay for postage of the new CD kit, but instead the charges my credit card for the full product including postage. I complained to my credit card company and they raised objection to Adobe. I was refunded the product cost, but of course they cancelled my card and I had to wait for a new one. Tip here is to use a card that is not critical to you life in the real world, because like me you might have to cancel your credit card as a result of dealing with Adobe. Nice one.
    Why oh why as an online company do Adobe allow us to download the software and provide a key - all done over the wires. Having CD kits delivered is not environmental good and its a waste of time and effort. This is something of 10 years ago. This whole process must have cost Adobe more than the product was worth! The process had so many touch points in their organisation, this inefficiency must be very/very expensive for them. (and a waste of time for me)
    We'll I might one day buy an Adobe product again, but I will first see if a competitive product will suit me better before I do.
    I do think their products are cool, but they could be much more successful if they asked me into their office to tell them what and how to fix their customer interactions. I would happily contribute.

    Okay, I left off a lot of important information...
    I'm using two tables
    TWDATA
    EVENT
    From TWDATA I'm pulling the fields TWDATA.OrderNumber and TWDATA.DisbursementDate
    From EVENT I'm pulling the fields EVENT.EventCode and EVENT.CompletedDate
    The two tables are linked by OrderNumber.

  • Creative Customer Support Philosop

    Having recently installed Microsoft Vista, I was terribly excited about the possibilities it presented for a PC based home theater and all encompassing entertainment center. I have to say that in the past I have been openly critical of Microsoft products, but such critizm was due specifically?to my own personal experiences and troubles with their products. However, I have to say with the recent conversion to Vista I have never encountered a Microsoft product that was?so easy and trouble free to set up and configure. That being said my smiles quickly turned to frowns when I realized that several of my hardware devises were not found or could not be installed due to incompatable drivers. My first reaction:? $!@&* Microsoft. However, once I settled down a little, I considered the situation and instead of trying to blame I tried to locate a solution. There were only two items of hardware that were not configured by Vista and automatically set up with drivers:? my Linksys wireless network card and my Sound Blaster Li've! sound card. Well, with a quick check of?MS online updates, I found a driver provided by MS for the wireless card even though Linksys did not support my card in Vista. Microsoft , Linksys 0. I thought how odd it was that a company like Linksys would not have the drivers available for their products, but was admittedly placated by the fact that at least the MS drivers had the card funtioning now. My dismay quickly returned, however, when I went to the Creative site to locate the driver for my Sound Blaster. I litteraly had not a single doubt in my mind that Creative would have posted a driver for MS Vista given my experience with their products and support?in the past. As I soon discovered, I was completely mistaken. Not only was their no driver for the Sound Blaster Li've card but Creative had decided to cease support, period citing EOL cycle but they also had some faqs posted about how the infrastructure of Vista is completely different than XP and that they in fact had little time to adjust to those changes. Was I reading excuses?That was the last straw. When I go out to eat to a restaraunt and pay good money for a product and the service that accompanies it, I don't expect to hear excuses from the restaraunt employees. I don't want the waiter complaining to me about what a rough day he's had because management just changed the menu items and he just cannot adjust to it. Frankly, I don't care what his problems are. I want the product and service I paid for and I don't want to hear any excuses. If they can't provide what I paid for, then I want an apology and a refund, plain and simple.
    Well, Creative apparently sees things differently. Profit margins are definitely dictating customer service policies in this case. It's not a matter of what is best for our customers, it's what is better for our bottom line. In taking this philosophy toward hardware compatability issues with Vista, Creative has essentially reduced a perfectly good and functioning product (my Sound Blaster Li've card)?to a piece of trash that must be thrown out and replaced with another product, ideally one of their own in their opinion. So I end up wasting money and trashing something that is theoretically completely functional. So what do I do, having been abandoned again by another company in this all to familiar environment of eroding customer service? I have a something now that is at worst a piece of useless trash or at best something on which I can spend hours searching for unlicensed drivers, hoping to regain at least some of its former?functionality while also not completely crashing my new OS. Do I cave and?go buy another?sound card even though the one I have it completely fineDo I wait for and individual out there to create something even remotely stable for my existing card??These are questions that neither I nor anyone else should not have to be asking themselves. I have already paid for a product that is supposed to work and if it doesn't then it is the manufacturer's responsibility to provide a solution, a replacement, or a refund. Creative so far as I have seen has offered to do none of these.
    Creative is a part of the?computer?technology industry, which is probably the most volatile and rapidly changing industry in the world. If they cannot keep up, or cannot even simply provide a solution to a problem that?increasingly more individuals?will encounter as Vista becomes more prevalent then perhaps Creative should look to other industries for it continued business. I can say with confidence that in a time when consumers are more frequently resigning themselves to the decling state of customer service from companies, I am one consumer who strongly believes in voting with my dollar in a capatalistic economy. With the attitude taken by Creative in this situation, I will NEVER buy?another one of their products unless they provide a satifactory solution to this problem. Derrick?

    This "tech" subject of EOL/S comes up again and again with me and my parents. (AKA older generation)? They have, I and see their point, the view that if you sell it you support it. Period. They have a Maytag washer and drier they bought in 983. Both still work fine and both are still supported. But, when the VCR died, it killed them that the TV place would not repair it!? Of course just buy a new one right? But they saw the VCR which need a simple fix (a new belt which the shop could not find a replacment for) as such a waste. Now I know this isn't the same. With evolving standards, new OS's, ever increasing demands for performance etc etc, its different with technology. But for many the idea of abandoning perfectly good "stuff" is not acceptable.

    It is so frustrating for anyone trying to help you when people give some facts and not others!  Specific exams taken and confirming you can see the results in certview might help identify any certification pre-requisite misunderstandings.
    I finished my OCP on Dec 11 It is been more than 48 hours I got my result
    - I assume this means your exam taken on 11th december is showing result passed in certview
    but my certification logo is not visible in the certview.
    - I assume this means the certification you expect to achieve is not showing in certview
    ====>>> From this information the most likely cause is that who have not satisified all the certification pre-requisites and some are missing from the oracle certification database/certview (e.g. a training requirement perhaps).
    I tried also creating a ticket so far no response
    - I don't have a date for this; but it can be 2-5 working days to get a response.  Unfortunately patience is required.
    Phone support for certifications does not happen.  It is all by support tickets from certification.oracle.com

  • Creative Cam software does not have motion detection???

    I installed my creative software on my computer with the webcam however it does not have the motion detection portion in it. I had another computer i used previously and that version had that option. Where do I get the version with that option in it?

    Good luck with this one. I fought with support for a while a few months ago on this one. The only solution they had was to send out thru a free email provider like bluebottle.com, to your own bluebottle.com account. They acknolodged that this is a problem, but I dont see anybody fixing the username and password authentication any time soon. You'll have to use a 3rd party program that actually uses user name and password authentication in their software. How creative expects anybody to send an email these days without authenticating first, is beyond me. MAJOR software flaw if you ask me!

  • Trying to contact customer support "page not found"

    HI, I am trying to close my skype account but I can´t get to the customer support in order to do that...it says that page is not found... plz help, what is the customer supports email or how the hell am I supposed to contact them if there isn´t such a page????

    Hi, fboy6969, and welcome to the Community, Skype is aware of continuing and sporadic website issues. Temporarily enabling scripts, pop-up dialog boxes, and disabling plug-ins which could prohibit pop-ups may help get past website problems. (For others reading alongg, here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service  )
    If you still experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service or find yourself redirected back to the Community, please try again using a different web browser and choosing a different path through the various drop-down menu options presented.
    Also, look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also block reaching an agent.
    Last and not least, when you reach the last step of the process, remember to click on the "Start Chat" link when you are provided the choice of visiting the Community or starting an instant message chat with a customer service agent.

  • How come apple is incorporating twitter into its computers operating software but the company does not have an official twitter account themselves?

    As you all hopefully know, apple has announced their new operating software being released this summer, mountain lion. It states that they are incorporating twitter in to the software to that by a simple click you can upload items to twitter. Same thing goes for the iOS devices. Since apple is doing so much with twitter how come they dont have an official company twitter page?

    The iTunes Store has several:

  • I would like to cancel my subscription. How can I contact customer support? (I have already read the policy and tried to use all related links but it seems I can't do anything since it was automatically renewed)

    I need to contact Adobe in order to cancel my renewed membership. Membership was renewed on Nov the 6th. According to Adobe's policy I can get full refund within a month (which I guess counts since date of renewal). BUT I CAN'T CONTACT CUSTOMER SUPPORT!!! Moreover the monthly cost of renewed subscription is $42 plus taxes, while last year it was $30 plus taxes. Meanwhile on Adobe's webpage there is an offer going on for a monthly $30 plus taxes for new subscriptions!!!

    HI There,
    We are sorry for the inconvenience that is has caused to you.
    Kindly contact us via: Contact Customer Care
    Please revert if you are unable to contact us using the above link.

  • When I connect my iPad to my HP laptop  and download software updates it disables my disk drive. Apple support do not have a solution for this.

    When I connect my iPad to my laptop and update software it disables my disk drive. Apple does not have a solution and Microsoft Fix It will not fix the problem. I have taken my computer to a repair shop on two occasions now to have it fixed. They told me that it is some foreign device that has CD burning software and the only thing I have is my iPad.

  • Creating Custom fields does not have the option to create as a Note field

    Of course I have a sales VP that wants to be able to see what they are typing instead of having it scroll off the screen as they type (even though once they save the record the data is fully displayed).
    Before I go to customer care is there a way for me to request through support that two custom fields I created as Text (Long) can be changed (or new ones created) behind the scenes as a Note field similar to the Comments field? Note is not an user option when creating a custom field.
    I ucan not just rename the description field in the account record as I am already using that field for comments.
    Thanks,
    Caryn

    It is not possible at this time to create a custom Note field. This is something that is on the On Demand roadmap as a enhancement.

    For some reason the site won't allow me to e-mail creative regarding the crashed hard dri've in my Zen:M does anyone have the e-mail address?

    Some of the emails will say something to the tune of "If this does not help, please reply back and an advisor will get with you." If that's the email you got, just reply back to it. If not, then give us a little time.

    I have been trying to make a payment on my prepaid phone since yesterday (when the bill was due) and have been greeted by this message:We're sorry - we're currently unable to process your request. Please try again later or call Customer Service at '  every time I tried to pay with my phone or go onto my verizon account. I have tried calling every single customer service number and am either told they are experiencing technical errors or my number doesn't exist or that verizon no longer services that number.
