Terrible Warranty Service in UK

My machine is posted to Lenovo centre in London on 1st July. But Now I've waited for almost one month and there're no any information for me about my machine. I called the Lenovo employee, they told me that my machine will be fixed during 3-5 work days. However, Now the time is almost one month!!!!!
Moreover, I sent email to Lenovo many times, but there was no any reply. I called Lenovo twice, they told me I will be contacted, but thet never contact me!!!
I dont know why, anyone met same case as me before?

it could take that long, if they don't have the part.
I waited around one month for a motherboard replacement on a T61. Some parts are shipped from overseas.

Jin Li
May this year, be the year of 'DO'!

  • Terrible warranty service

    So, I am a long time customer of Lenovo, having bought several of their laptops for personal and business use for many years. Usually I have been happy, but Lenovo's warranty service seems to have taken a huge turn for the worse. Recently my ideapad U series broke; a hardware malfunction where the mouse trackpad no longer works. This happened at around 11 months into the purchase, so the 12-year basic arranty should have covered it, right? Not so. I sent my laptop back, but the answer I got from 3 different Lenovo technicians is that the mouse is cosmetic only. **bleep**? How is an issue where the mousepad hardware doesn't work cosmetic? Mouse functionality is pretty important on a Windows machine... After several weeks, I ended up just buying a new laptop...NOT from Lenovo. I'm really disappointed in Lenovo, and they just lost a long-time repeat customer due to a minor issue for something that CLEARLY was covered by the warranty that they refused to fix anyway. Why even have a warranty if you don't honor it at all?

    We met the same problem: terrible warranty service! 
    In August 9, 2013, me and my mother bought two Lenovo desktops C440. One desktop is working without troubles, but another one beaked month before the end of warranty. In July 2014  ripples appeared on the computer screen. At first they appeared sporadically, then became regular. So it became impossible to use the desktop. Faulty computer was put to an authorized service center in St. Petersburg “LLC MicRoBiT-NC” on July 14, 2014. In the service center computer was tested to failure, however, the defect was not found.
    The day before the end of the warranty period we took the computer from the service center. Master of the service center advised me to capture the possible manifestations of the defect. Already on August 10, the defect has reappeared and then became, as before, to manifest more and more. Now the desktop screen is constantly in ripples. Meanwhile, the warranty was over and we asked Russian Lenovo office for the help. The answer shocked us. Lenovo representative explained to me on the phone that all risks of relationships with service centers lay on the buyer. And if one service center did not reveal the problem, we must apply to another service, pay to them (because warranty is over) and then, if the problem will be explained, file a claim to the first service center. However, said representative, Lenovo does not guarantee that another service center will set the source of the problem and the time when the damage occurred (during the warranty period or later). He also told me that we made a mistake have signed the certificate of the executed works, but without this signature, we could not return the computer.
    As interviewed experts (independent computers repairers) suggest, the problem is that Russian Lenovo does not worry for how competent service centers are and whether they provided with all the necessary diagnostic equipment. So service centers are often very little firms and do not have the necessary tools to diagnose the failure. Russian forums are full of complaints on service centers that do not reveal problems, but require money for diagnostics. The customer cannot be sure that the service center will identify the problem, because even if the center lacks the equipment and qualified expertise, the customer will never know about it. It will be noted by the service that the problem is not identified, or that it cannot be solved. However, Lenovo does not bother with this. The authorized Lenovo service center LLC MicRoBiT-NC, we applied to, has bad reputation according to forums reviews, and another authorized services in St. Petersburg are of the same reputation. Lenovo continues to cooperate with them, not paying attention to customers dissatisfaction.
    I asked Lenovo Company to help me  to overcome the indifference of the Russian office to my concerns, and ф certain Anthony Garcia mockingly send me to my oppressors instead of giving the address of the responsible persons in the Lenovo company (ref:_00D30V2Wu._50014lvR7v:ref)

  • Has anyone else had terrible customer service trying to replace a lost or stolen phone through Verizon?

    Has anyone else had terrible customer service trying to replace a lost or stolen phone under their warranty plan?  How did you get a resolution or replacement phone?

    Hello dpetrie,
    A lost or stolen phone is definitely not fun! If this is the case then I'm sure that we have an option available for you. May I ask what model device did you lose? As tikibar1 mentioned, do you have insurance on the device? If so then please advise so we can share options with you.
    Thank you...

  • Terrible customer service from Brendan at Telstra Bourke St Melbourne

    Hi All,
    Just thought I would ask your advice concerning repairs to my Iphone I requested from Telstra.
    The phone is great and I love it, my only problem is that it no longer turns on anymore.
    I took it to the shop where I bought it on (yep I lined up to buy it the day they were released ), the really flashy Telstra shop in the Bourke Street Mall. I got one of the techs on the front desk to look at it. He then took it to the head tech guy and he came back and said they would not repair or replace the phone under warranty. He said that it had a 'disturbed liquid submersion indicator at the bottom'.
    I have never droped it into water the whole time I have owned it, but I do travel overseas to humid areas so that may have set off the 'submersion indicator' to make the techs think that I dropped it into a puddle when I have never done that.
    Obviously, its a real pain, not having a phone for even a day, so I asked what my options were. I was told that the 'apple warranty is void and repair/exchange can not be carried out and the replacement cost for an 8gb for $670'.
    The quotes above are from what is typed on my Service Repair Order.
    I asked was it possible to send the phone to Apple to be inspected, and they advised that it was not, and that my only option was to purchase a new phone, and that I had two options. Firstly, if I surrendered my old phone, a replacement would be issued for $670. Secondly, I could simply purchase another iphone 'outright' for a cost of $726.
    I tool the second option, and have a brand new phone, although I am disapointed that I now have an almost new phone that simply stopped working that is now used as a paperweight.
    I tried everything to minimise the cost of getting a working iphone, and after talking to the lead tech, he then got the store manager to discuss my options.
    Brendan said he was the store manager, and eventually let me know his name after first stating 'I dont have to give you my name' and eventually told me his employee number was 0238895.
    He spent over an hour checking the situation while I waited, but would not put anything in writing except some notes in the section related to the 'reported problem' on the Service Repair Order.
    Is the advice that Brendan from Telstra gave me correct, and was it necessary for me to purchase another brand new handset for $726?
    If anyone has any questions I can be contacted on <Edited by: Host>
    Kind regards
    Wayne B

    See the response that I provided to Tamara regarding the recent change to the policy.
    You might want to print the new version of the policy and bring your receipt and go back to Telstra and see if they will consider an adjustment, i.e. you return your brand new iPhone, they swap it for a refurbished iPhone and credit you with the difference in price.
    I actually fail to see where you received "Terrible customer service from Brendan" as stated in your title.

  • Truly Terrible Customer Service- Problems With Lenovo U410

    Hello everyone,
    I would like to share my Lenovo Customer Service experience. 
    While on holidays in Poland last August, I decided to buy a new laptop in one of the big electronic stores. The laptop, however, developed a fault on the second day. I thought it was a case of bad drivers causing the problem. After I returned from my holidays, the fault was still there.
    I contacted the Lenovo Customer Service who requested a proof of purchase. I explained that the laptop was bought in Poland on holidays and sent them on the receipt. A day later, I got an email saying:
    "Your machine has been booked in for a full repair at our service centre. Thank you for your proof of purchase. 
    In 2-3 working days you will receive a letter containing instructions regarding the booking of your collection. The letter will also contain very important terms and conditions in particular with regards to data loss. 
    Please follow the instructions and your machine will be repaired under warranty."
    A few days later the machine was taken off me by a DPD courier for almost 2 weeks. In the meantime I had no other option but to use my father's laptop to do my final year college project. 
    I was delighted when I got the email:
    "We have completed the servicing of your item.
    Your item is now being packed and prepared for dispatch. You can track your package online..."
    However, 30 mins after using the "newly repaired" laptop, the stripy screen came back! Needless to say, I wasn't happy. I contacted Lenovo again, their customer service agent apologised for the bad experience and said that the laptop will need to be sent back again. For me that meant another 2 weeks without the laptop!
    This Tuesday, I finally  received the laptop back. After using the laptop for an hour or so, the horrible stripy screen appeared in front of my eyes! This time I was absolutely infuriated!! The laptop was sent back twice and the same problem persisted. I got my phone and rang the Customer Service to ask what the hell is happening?! 
    The answer I got this time was that the laptop was purchased in Poland and therefore it is not covered by the International warranty!! A few months of dealing with the company, a couple of phone calls and sending the laptop off for a repair twice to be told that they didn't fix it because the machine is not covered by the International Warranty?! 
    This is my short story of my terrible customer experience! I am not satisfied with the way this company operates, takes my laptop off me, sends the laptop off to their repair centre in Germany to then say that they cannot fix it?! Could anyone who works for Lenovo please explain to me where is the logic in that?

    I find it absolutely deplorable of Lenovo that there has been no posted response to this customer service issue. I have been trying to decide for a while now if it was worth purchasing a Yoga 2 Pro as it looked to have all the specs of a PC Hybrid I was hoping for. Well....how wrong could I have been...I had no idea how appalling the customer service is from this company!
    Firstly, in the UK...there have been some nightmare stories of faulty items and ridiculous product shipping delays that just seem to keep changing without any thought for the consumer in explaining what the hold up is. If you want to see a fantastic daily updated example of this alone just have a look at the Lenovo UK Facebook product page. Just reading it for ten minutes is tragic. There are so many upset customers in there that it almost seems comical. 
    The shipping delays are pathetic, they will glady take people's money (including warranties on items that arent there!) and hold it in the Lenovo bank accounts but the slow service and response to those with faults displays a complete disregard for the consumer. I can understand a company being unable to keep up with high demand of a product if it is very good and in demand but this needs to be addressed with admission in communication. Simply advertising a product that people cannot access and dealing with the irate customer-in-waiting afterwards is not acceptable.
    Let it be known that Lenovo through their own incompetence have lost a customer before he even purchased anything today. I can only hope that others considering making a purchase will see further posts like this and feel deterred in the same way. That way, Lenovo may finally see that they really need to up their game in terms of service and quality control. To the person that made this post, I can only feel sympathy for the problems you had with them and can only say that you are certainly not alone! Check out their UK Facebook page to see just how terrible the service is (including choosing to ignore the more upset customers while blowing the trumpet whenever someone's problem is "sorted"!).

  • Terrible customer service after systemboard on T400 died for no apparent reason.

    So I hate for my first post to be a negative one, but here goes.
    I'm sorry if my actions sound rude or impatient, but I'm sure some of you understand the aggravation and worry that accompanies a computer that suddenly stops working when it is needed.
    Warning... here's the abridged version, it will still be long. I have also attached a email I sent to Lenovo websales... it has not gotten a response. So far I have not received parts that were supposed to be shipped. I have been hung up on. I have been interrupted. I have been ignored. I have been told that if I want my product fixed I should upgrade my current existing warranty to an on-site service.
    I bought a T400 roughly six months ago. I had minor issues with the sound cutting in and out after waking up from sleep since new. I figured it was probably a driver issue. Never bothered to try and fix it, it wasn't a big deal. Other than that, I loved my T400 and recommended that everybody check out Lenovo if they're in the market for a new laptop. Well... no more. I recently put my T400 to sleep. Left it on my desk and walked away. I came back about 20 minutes later, noticed that all the indicator lights were not lit. Strange... okay. I tried to start it. Nothing. I did a search on google, came up with the procedure to press the buttons to drain the system board. Nothing. Oh no. I immediately call Lenovo since I was going to be returning to classes soon. The phone conversations I had with Lenovo techs were less than stellar. One tech told me he could not ship out the box since the system was down... but he somehow managed to look up my serial number, input my information, and issue a case number. Well... turns out he also closed that case. Since he couldn't ship out a box, I brought it to a local authorized warranty service center.  They told me it would be no problem. I dropped it off first thing in the morning, several hours later, a tech had called to tell me that the systemboard was dead (what I thought) and that he had already placed the order with Lenovo and that the part was in stock and should be in the next day. I wait two days and did not hear anything. I call the shop. They call Lenovo. Apparently the part is now backordered and there is no ETA on when it may be back in stock. They said I should pick up my laptop and send it in. So I pick up my laptop and call Lenovo to try and obtain a box. I spoke to one gentlman who seems to empathize with me. He wanted to speak to a supervisor to see if he could have the case elevated. I was put on hold... several minutes later, I was somehow transferred to another tech. This guy had no idea what was going on, he was less than helpful, and he did not seem to be interested in helping me at all. I finally convinced him to ship me a box. When I got off the phone, I realized I should try and obtain some sort of time frame. I called back. Some women picked up. I explained my situation once again. She told me the part was in stock (not what the store and 2 techs had just told me). So I asked if it could be shipped to the store? "Uh... Well..." *Click* She either hung up or we got disconnected. I waited several minutes for a call back. There was none. So I called again... This employee told me that the part does not have an ETA and he has no idea when it might be back in stock. This gentleman is a little pushy and interupts me a few times, but for the most part seems to want to try and help. I was told that Lenovo would keep my laptop for an indefinite period of time until the part is no longer backordered. That's not what I want to hear. I need my laptop for school and research projects. He tells me that if I want to get my laptop fixed in a timely manner, I should upgrade my warranty service to a better one. This raises flags. Is Lenovo just trying to pocket more of my money? Shouldn't the standard warranty cover this? So I decide to email Lenovo and see if they can shed any light on the situation and offer any alternatives. I have tried twice since last week and gotten no response.
    Here's the email I sent.
    To whom it may concern:
    My name is William Xiao. I purchased a Lenovo Thinkpad t400 roughly 6 months ago. The deciding factors in this purchase were all the things I had heard about Thinkpad's excellent reliability, durability, and the outstanding customer service. Unfortunately, none of these have been true in my experience thus far. I had recently put the laptop to sleep. When I came back twenty minutes later, none of the indicator lights were illuminated. The system would not power up. I performed all of the procedures offered by the technical support to completely drain/power down the system board. This did not rectify the situation. When I did call technical support, I do not feel that I was treated with respect. One time I called, the employee was very unenthusiastic to help. The technician was very rude. He frequently interrupted me and did not listen to what I had to say. I asked him to ship a box out. He told me he could not (or would not) do that. He told me to call back the next day with the case number to get somebody else to ship out a box. Or to take it to a repair center. I decided to take it to a local repair center first thing the next morning (Jan 5, 2010). The center assured me that the repair would take no longer than 3 or 4 days. Several days later (Jan 7, 2010), I called to check on the status of the repair. Apparently the system board that was needed was in stock when they ordered it, but became backordered with no ETA on when it might become available again. Unfortunately, I am leaving town to return to college on January 11. The shop suggested that I pick up my laptop and have it shipped to Lenovo. I called Lenovo the evening of January 7th. The first person I spoke to seemed knowledgeable and empathetic to my situation. He looked up the part and said it was out of stock at their depot. I explained to him that I would be returning to school soon and needed my laptop for classes and my research projects. He put me on hold while he went and spoke to a supervisor about escalating the case. For one reason or another, I was transferred to another employee who was not a supervisor. This employee was absolutely clueless about what was going on. His attitude was very poor. He told me that the original case that was opened had been closed on Jan 4 or 5. I had not asked for this case to be closed. When I asked him to to ship a box, he seemed somewhat reluctant to do so. He seemed frustrated when I asked him to have it shipped to a different address. As I said, I would be returning to my school over 200 miles away. I would no longer be able to have the box shipped to my home where I was over winter break. For whatever reason, this employee just did not seem to understand that. I asked if the parts were not in stock, how long would it take to get them in stock and get my laptop repaired. He could offer no answer. I asked him if there was any way this case could be escalated since I cannot be without a computer at school. He told me no. I do not feel that I was treated very respectfully. He told me to call some other department. I asked if I could be transferred. He very reluctantly did so. The other department was closed for the night. I called back to the technical service center in Atlanta, Georgia. This time I spoke to a woman. She told me the parts ARE in stock. I asked if they are in stock, can they be shipped to the store where I was having my computer repaired at. She said "Uh... Well..." and then she either hung up on me or I was disconnected. I waited several minutes for a call back. None was ever received. Thus far, I have been extremely unsatisfied with the customer service that has been offered. I asked if there was any way that a temporary unit could be offered while mine was being repaired since I was told that my laptop would be kept for an indefinite period of time while waiting for the part become available again. Or I asked if they could pull a T400 from the shelves, take the system board out, and use that system board to repair mine. I was interrupted and told no. This seemed to be a common theme: interrupt the customer, do not know what is going on, tell them no to any sort of request. It is interesting that the recording on the telephone says how much Lenovo values customer satisfaction. Well, I am not satisfied at all. This computer is still under warranty. It should not be my responsibility to drive to and from service centers to try and obtain repair. It should not be my responsibility to have to call back whenever somebody decides they do not want to perform a task at that time. Lenovo should be repairing my computer in a timely manner. I was told that if I wanted my computer repaired in a timely manner, I should upgrade my current warranty to a on-site service. I feel that they should be doing whatever is possible in order to best serve the customer. It looks like Lenovo is more concerned with making a fast buck. A computer is very important to my education, as I said, I need it for both classes and research projects. Based on the quality of the product and the customer service that has been offered, I will not be buying any Lenovo product in the future. I was strongly considering purchasing a Edge for both my girlfriend and my mother. And I had previously recommended many people to buy Lenovo after I initially purchased mine. But that is no longer the case. Not only will I likely not be purchasing another Lenovo product, I will warn all of the people I know who are in the market for a new computer to look somewhere else. I really want to like and enjoy my Thinkpad, it is very unfortunate that I cannot and that Lenovo will not do what is necessary to make things right again.
    Your very unsatisfied consumer,
    William Xiao
    Any ideas? Any other email addressed I might be able to reach somebody at?
    Thanks for reading that mess. I appreciate any input that this forum may have to offer.

    As I said (in my overly long post), I had already brought it to a reputable local warranty service center (still about a half hour to forty minute drive each way) after an employee refused to ship out a box (supposedly the system was down, but he looked up my information and was able to both open and close a case without telling me that he was closing it, he told me to call back about it later) because the turnaround time SHOULD have been faster. I was quoted a 3 day turnaround time, 4 days MAX. I dropped it off first thing the morning after I spoke to somebody at Lenovo. Tech took a look at it later that day, before noon, put the order in, called me to let me know that he ordered the part and that it was in stock. He tells me that generally they receive the part the next day. I hadn't heard from the shop in 2 days. So I call. They call Lenovo, part is now on backorder. That's why they told me to ship it. Now I'm dealing with this headache.
    I should not have to spend this much time trying to obtain a warranty. The staff has been rude, unhelpful, and uninspiring.
    If something is not done to rectify this situation... at least some sort of apology or attempt to make amends, this will certainly be my last Lenovo product. I will not be purchasing a Lenovo for my girlfriend or family members. I cannot in good conscience recommend that others purchase a Lenovo. My faith in the product and in the company has been corrupted. I would hate to have the new motherboard fail unexpectedly and without reason in another 6 months (which would be just after my warranty runs out), but the service provided thus far cannot justify me spending 140 dollars on a on-site service. If things don't take a turn for the better, it would seem that the best option for me may be to sell my once loved T400 when I get it back and buy a new laptop from a company that actually stands behind their product.
    I NEED a laptop for school. The turnaround time I was quoted should have my laptop back to me right before school started again. I have been back to school for a week, and after all this time, they cannot even tell me when I might be able to have my laptop back. The staff flat out refused to offer any sort of temporary laptop for me to use while they held mine for an unknown period of time.  I have read of people being offered loaners. They also refused to pull the system board from another T400 because "it will not work." That's just incorrect.
    I want to love my Lenovo. I really do.
    Edited to add more information. I figured it was better than posting multiple times in a row and cluttering things up.

  • Contract mis-sold. Terrible customer service from a supervisor-no clear way to make a complaint

    After being a good customer for a year and a Verizon Wireless customer for 5 years, numerous issues with Verizon Fios have surfaced.
    1) Representative totally mis-informed about the contract
    When I took out a contract with Verizon FIos a year ago, I had not wanted to have a contract because they only option available was for 2 years and I knew that the lease for my apartment was only for 1 year and in all likliehood I would be moving. I was told by the representative that there would be no problem if I took out a 2 year contract because I could simply transfer the existing contract to wherever I moved with no issue.
    Fastforward a year and I'm moving, call Verizon to make the transfer and i"m told, that actually i'm effectively cancelling my existing contract and re-starting as a new customer. This means that my bundle has gone up $10 a month and I would have to start another 2 year contract.This completely contradicts what I was told a year ago. I would never have taken out the 2 year contract if I had known this.
    2) Terrible customer service from someone who is a supervisor
    This morning I spoke to a representative and after she said she couldnt address my concerns about being mis-sold the contract, I asked to speak with a supervisor. How he handled the call was incredibly unhelpful and rude - I dont understand how someone at a supervisor level can have that kind of attitude. First he tried to indicate that it was my fault for not being clear with the representative last year (before he knew the full facts), he did not take show any recognition that being mis-informed about a contract is a significant issue. When I asked him how to make a complaint he told me to go to verizon.com/contact. I did this while I was on the phone with him and told him that there was no clear way to make a complaint, I was told "I am a supervisor, I cant sit here on the phone with you and take you through it step by step" - I was not asking for step by step help, I assumed that as a supervisor he would know which wa the right section to click on. He then basically made it sound like I was an idiot and I was told that every other customer seems to find it intuitive (which judging by other comments on this forum about the contact piece of the site is not actually true).
    3) Impossible to file an official complaint through normal channels 
    There is no email address to which you can send a complaint (according to the team on the phone). On the verizon.com/contact page, there is no option for making a complaint. When you type in a question about making a complaint nothing comes up. This seems ridiculous and makes it seem like Verizon is not interested in hearing customers feedback.

  • Fed up with the terrible customer service.

    I'm so fed up with Verizon's terrible customer service. My DVR started going out last week. I figured that now would be a good time to get the new 500gb DVR that all of the new customers get to have. After several long calls with "customer service" they said that I could pick one up from the local store (which is a 30 minute drive). So after calling in the morning to make sure that the boxes were in stock, I went down there. They refused to give me the newer 500gb DVR, instead giving me a 120gb DVR.
    When I got home, I called customer service again three more times. The third time, the customer service agent put in an order for a new DVR, promising me that  I would receive the 500gb box. Guess which DVR they sent me? The 120gb DVR!
    Again, I called customer service, got hung up on, called back again and was unable to speak to a supervisor. They also claim that they have no control over which DVR they can send. That's so ridiculous.  
    I've had it. I pay waaaaaay to much and have been a loyal customer for over 4 years. I don't even get the 25/25 internet speed that I'm paying for. As soon as my contract is up I'm switching to Time Warner or AT&T. I know their customer service is much better, and at least I'll be able to use a faster wireless router.  
    Good Bye Verizon. You're way too expensive for how you treat your customers.

    October 2011
    Wanted to add another set top box for a 3rd TV.  So I called customer service and had them send me one instead of going to the FiOS store which in my area, which uses 2 gallons of gas round trip.  I asked for the newer black colored box which is lighter and uses less energy.  2 days later, the package shows up at my door and low and behold, they sent the old large box instead. Surprised?  So I called the local FiOS store in Spring Valley, NY since I couldn't get through to customer service on the phone that morning (perhaps because it was the day before hurricane Irene struck the NY area) and was told to just bring it up there. I wound up spending FOUR HOURS in the store as I was told they couldn't switch it out because it wasn't plugged in and activated!  They made calls to different departments in an effort to straighten this out, but to no avail.  I wanted to take the box and smash it on the floor in front of them!  Unless I miss my guest, ALL cable boxes are tracked by their serial #, so why was there a problem? Because of a colossal design FLAW in the Verizon FiOS computer system that requires you to plug in & activate a box BEFORE you exchange or return it.  Have you ever heard of anything so stupid in your life?  So I took the old box home, took apart that part of the wall unit, replaced the existing HD setop box with the wrong one they sent, activated it, put the wall unit back together, took the box I've had for 4 years back, got the new design one, bought it home, installed it, and low and behold, THERE'S NO CLOCK DISPLAY!  The excuse customer service is giving out for this one is that alleviation of the clock display makes the box use less energy.  Just who does this company think they're BSing?   I was in the digital clock biz back when digital displays first came out in the 1970's.  These vacuum florescent types use barely any power at all to speak of compared to what the box consumes overall.  They know the average consumer doesn't have the technical background I have to know better.  Just another excuse so Verizon could save a buck or 2 on each box they buy from Motorola, As Porky Pig would say, "BADEE BADA BEDED THAT'S ALL FOLKS!"

  • Help with starting a Warranty service on a Quadro k4000 c2j94at

    I'm trying to get a replacement Video Card, because mine failed two days after I plugged it in. I would have returned it to the online store where I purchasing it, but it took 2 months to assembly the custom built computer. So now I trying to deal with getting HP to acknowledge that they own the warranty service on this product that has their name all over it. I've managed to verify my warrenty on the HP warranty check site, and it comes up just fine. I've got a screen shot with the product number and serial number saying it's covered until 2017-04-08, but when trying to link this under "Contracts and Warranties" it fails to find my serial number and product number.
    I've tried multiple times to contact HP service by phone and chat, but I've been hung up on 3 times and endlessly transfered and hung up on, and every support rep. just says it's not my problem, or  "I don't know what a Graphics Card is, sir", or "what computer is this in?".  I've got a $1000 dollar piece of junk on my desk, and my machine is running on some $20 video card that just doesn't cut it.
    Does anybody know how to get through to HP service? How do I contact someone who deals with individual sold hardware computer components? Apparently there's a forum for Hardware, but is there a phone number for service?

  • Sony Hard disk error. Warranty services ?

    Recently I bought a hard disk E-1 1TB and now it doesn't show up when I connect. I tried in other laptops also. I have invoice bill is it enough to avail warranty services or warranty card is also required? If I dont have warranty card how can I get it ? Any possible way of getting warranty services?
    Never expected this kind of product from Sony

    If you have warranty and proper invoice, they you should not worry about your faulty hard disk. First you must make sure the hard disk problem with local technical person and then raise up complaint to replace the product.

  • About thinkpad warranty service for help

    i am a Chinese college student, i will buy a X200 thinkpad and then i will go to Canada for study,
    i really want to know whether or not the X200 i bought in China will have the International warranty service in Canada,
    thank you !!!!!

    Firstly, don't buy X200 in China, it costs like 2 times more than what it would cost in USA. International warranty coverage depends on what model of the X200 you buy.
    USA has the cheapest Thinkpad in the world, and Canada is certainly not much more expensive than USA, so get it Canada and that way you will get the best warranty coverage.

  • HT4061 Device had been purchased in Hong Kong less than one year ago. May I get warranty service in London?

    Device had been purchased in Hong Kong less than one year ago. May I get warranty service in London? Actually i have problem of "Error 23" and didn't succeed to solve it.

    Warranty and support for the iPhone are provided only in the country in which the iPhone was officially sold. To get service for an iPhone purchased in Hong Kong, you'll have to take the iPhone back to HK or send it to someone you know there who can get it serviced and then ship it back to you.
    Regards.

  • Customer Warranty service

    Dear Guru,

    I, too, had to followup via telephone with Tech. support in the Philippines.
    They dropped the ball, but quickly regrouped and the process is back on track to attain a fix.
    Apparentely, there is a "Service Depot" in San Jose, TX (SAT).
    I did not experience "hold times, " so only can advise to telephone back, take names and notes.
    Ask to speak with a supervisor, if at all possible, try and remain somewhat calm.
