Walmart warranty is BS. I sent in my laptop because it had a minor dc jack problem. They return it in 2 weeks. Nothing was fixed. The dc jack hadn't been touched. Furthermore, they reset all my data. They restored my computer for no reason at all. Luckily, I saved backup data. I called Walmart warranty and they said that all they could do was have a service recall. I sent in my laptop a second time for a small dc jack problem. This time I don't get the laptop back for over a month (seriously; this is not an exaggeration!). They had not touched the dc jack and said that the problem resulted from accidental damage which was not covered in their warranty (Then wtf does the warranty cover?). But that was not it... I take out my laptop and the left hinge was completely dismantled. The screen was broken and there was a screw missing. WOW! I send in the laptop for a small dc jack problem and get it back with more problems than before. I call Walmart warranty again, they claim they received the laptop in that condition and also claim that the box was not damaged. So I'm stuck with the computer. I advise everyone to never ever ever buy Walmart warranty. After all, what type of warranty returns a product unrepaired and damages it even more than before?
OVERALL MESSAGE: WALMART WARRANTY SUCKS!

HP 630 Complaints - Screen Corruption/Thermal Shutdown

The constant random shut down because of overheating. Except that it's not hot and it's sitting on my desk... The screen will suddenly go crazy and there will be tons of multicolored little squigglies. Then the fan starts going into overdrive, and then the computer shuts down. When I turn my computer back on, I get the message that it was shut down because of overheating (90d is the code...).

I called HP Support and told them about the problem and they told me did never have heard about this problem and i was the first one to complain about this problem with the HP 630.(Its full of complains if you check google)
So they setup case ip for me and told me to send the laptop in their repair center. When i asked them for shipping lable they told me that I have to pay for the shipping, which wasent fair but I accepted and told them that I do not have a box for the laptop to send it in and was told they would ship a box for me.
Days passed got a call from HP they asked me if I have recieved the box to which I told them that no I did not get anything so thet put me on hold for 50 minutes and gave a number to call and follow up. I did call the number and they told me that this is the servise center and they do not deal with sending boxes.
3 days pass I got an email from them saying :-
HP Reference Number: (my case number)
STATUS: REQUEST IS CLOSED
I am surprised they closed my case even without repair it and I was only waiting for box from them.

I placed an order for an hp pavilion dv6 3120us 15.6-Inch Laptop PC - Up to 5.25 Hours of Battery Life (Champagne) . My order No. is [protected] I also duly registered as a member with the username of Ovuosgbenes. After due payment through wire transfer, I was sent the following email on Fri, Jul 22, 2011 at 12:21 PM "We have confirmed your payment and send your goods today, here is the tracking number of your package: ee575477901cn . You can't track your goods now, it is still in China's customs territory. When it is out of China's customs territory, you can track it online.
Any questions pls keep in touch." Since then, I have written three times without any reply. Please I need my goods.

I had purchased hp pavilion dv6-2165tx on 22 june 2010 from nagpur, it worked good but on 03 august 2011 my laptop's start button light glown but display was black. So I have shown to hp service centre bhubaneswar on 06 aug 2011 and after 4-5 days they told that its motherboard to replace. If I am purchasing a new motherboard, it costs nearly rs. 27000 having only 90days warranty period. Does motherboard got problem within span of 1 year 1.5 months only? It means hp had supplied me a defective piece.

In January 2011, my wife, purchased a HP Laptop from HP.com. The laptop cost over $800. She gave me the laptop as a present on 1/22/11. Around 2/25/11, I realized that the laptop’s battery lasted about 60-80 minutes before dying. I contacted HP via telephone and was given false information “the laptop should only last about an hour” and was instructed to perform useless tasks, “Drain the battery 100% and then charge the battery 100%. Repeat this process 3 consecutive times and that will fix the issue by rejuvenating the battery”.
On March 16, 2011, I contacted HP and spoke with a tech who conducted tests on the computer and determined that the battery is “testing good’, therefore the laptop contains an “internal defect” and needs to be repaired. I explained that I am dissatisfied with the laptop and would like it to be replaced. I was informed that the laptop has a 21 day return policy and the only thing that HP can do is repair the computer. I repeatedly explained that this is unacceptable and spoke with a supervisor. HP was rigid and refused to do anything but repair the computer.
On April 8, 2011, I received a call from Charles, a representative of HP. Charles stated that HP would like to resolve this matter and he will be sending me a new battery. I explained that that the battery is “testing good’, therefore the laptop contains an “internal defect”. Charles then stated that I will need to send the laptop to HP for repair. I again explained that this is not an acceptable resolution, as I do not want a refurbished laptop, 2 months after purchasing a brand new laptop. Charles stated that this is the only procedure HP is willing to provide, a “one time service at the service center”. I again explained that this is unacceptable. I explained that the only solution that is acceptable is to return the laptop and give me my money back or send me a brand new laptop. Charles stated that the only solution is to send the laptop to the service center, but if I do not accept this solution, he can get me a 2nd opinion. Someone will be calling me with a 2nd opinion. I then contacted AMEX and spoke with Ravel (ID#42027). I explained the situation and he stated that he will update the case.
On May 29, 2011, I received a letter from AMEX, advising me that there is nothing they can do, I need to send the laptop to HP for repair.
On June 2, 2011, I called HP and spoke with Louis at customer service. He explained that he cannot help me, transferred me to technical support. I then spoke with Austin at HP Technical Support who informed me that HP requires that 3 attempts for repair be made on the computer. If the 3 attempts to repair fail, then it goes to case management and they determine whether I will receive a new computer. Unfortunately, I need to call back with the case number to proceed. Austin was very nice and seemed competent. I then spoke to Jim, Austin’s supervisor and praised Austin.
On June 2, 2011 at 4:37pm, I called HP and spoke with Salman "Zia" Sulaan. He repeatedly asked to trouble shoot the issue with me, to which I repeatedly explained that the issue has already been diagnosed and there was not any need to trouble shoot. I then requested to speak with a supervisor. Zia then placed me on hold. He came back on the telephone after I had been on hold for 63 minutes and stated that this is a busy call time, he is trying to get me a supervisor, but he would like to trouble shoot the problem with me. I again explained that I need to speak with a supervisor, I became irate and demanding. He placed me on hold and at precisely 90 minutes of my being on the telephone, and then asked me to call back later. I promptly sent a complaint email to HP.
June 2, 2011, called HP and spoke with Reggie. Reggie explained that I will need to mail the computer in to HP for service/repair. HP will send me a shipping box and label. Reggie explained that there is a 7-9 business day turn around time for the service. I then spoke with Jack, Reggie’s supervisor. I explained that Reggie was quite helpful and registered a complaint against Salman “Zia” Sulaan.
June 3, 2011, received a cal from Dennis, responding to my email complaint. Dennis apologized for my experience. I again explained my dissatisfaction with “Zia” and my suggestion that he be fired immediately. Dennis stated that he is making a note of it and connected me to Don, a case manager (877-917-4380x08, 12pm-9pm central time). Don explained that he will cancel the repair order placed by Reggie on 6/2/11 and issued me another case #: [protected]. Don will overnight a box to me, and this will be able to have my repair done by his personal technician. He will personally oversee the repair, will keep me informed and will follow up when it is complete. Once it is complete, Don will extend my laptop’s warrantee. New order confirmation number: FXE086-01.
June 7, 2011, sent the laptop back to HP.
June 14, 2011, received laptop back.
June 15, 2011, Don called and left me a message. I returned his call. Don is not permitted to extend the warrantee because I already have an extended warrantee until January 21, 2013. He can send me another battery or give me a $75 coupon to shop on HP.COM. I choose the battery.
July 18, 2011, called for Don 877-917-4380x08 and left a message with Jay/Jake. Only and should last 4-41/2 hours, per the advertising of it on HP.com. Jay/Jake stated that He will give the message to Don.
July 19, 2011, having not received a returned call from the message that I had left yesterday for Don, I called and spoke with Ivan. Ivan stated that Jay/Jake did not bother to give my message to Don, and that is why Don did not return my call. Ivan, assured me that he will personally give Don the message when Don comes in to work, in the next 20 minutes.
July 20, 2011, having not received a returned call from the message that I had left yesterday for Don, I called and spoke with Eric. Eric is now my case manager. I am not permitted to speak to a supervisor, I must complain to corporate office, [protected]. Eric will send me a box to mail the computer back for repair. “I have no other options”. Eric will call every couple of days to update me on progress. Eric will look into the fact that this is the 3rd day that I am calling and have not received a returned call. I called Juanita, and filed a complaint with HP corporate office.
July 20, 2011, not being at all satisfied with Case Management’s proposed solution or with Corporate Office Juanita’s filing of my complaint, I email the HP CEO the following:
I was sold a defective laptop and I am dissatisfied with the treatment I have received from HP. I have been ignored, hung up on, calls have not been returned, been left on hold for 90 minutes only to be told to call back later, etc. The laptop has never worked appropriately and HP refuses to stand by their product!
I have 4 pages of notes (which do not fit in the space allotted on this email, documenting every call and complaint, and identifying every HP employee that I have had the unfortunate experience of dealing with.

No idea if I will receive a response.

July 21, 2011, I email the HP CEO the following:
I was sold a defective laptop and I am dissatisfied with the treatment I have received from HP. I have been ignored, hung up on, calls have not been returned, been left on hold for 90 minutes only to be told to call back later, etc. The laptop has never worked appropriately and HP refuses to stand by their product!
I have 4 pages of notes (which do not fit in the space allotted on this email, documenting every call and complaint, and identifying every HP employee that I have had the unfortunate experience of dealing with.

July 28, 2011. Received a call from Eric, casemanager at HP. The service center cannot replicate the issue. He will have them try again and will get back to me within the next 1-2days. Telephone call was a waste of my time, he was updating me.

July 31, 2011. Received a call from Donna, doing a survey on HP’s response time to the complaint I filed with the executive office. She gave me the complaint number for the executive office [protected] option #7). She will make note of my dissatisfaction.

August 1, 2011, called executive office, spoke with carol. Carol is going to have an Executive Case Manager look at my case and call me back, should take 24-48 hours. This was after I explained that the laptop has been delivered back to me without a call from Eric. HP package was attempted delivery, we were not home.

August 1, 2011 sent email to CEO:
Laptop never worked properly!
Customer Service, the worst I have ever experienced!
Case Managers, Useless & Dishonest!

HP IS BY FAR THE WORST COMPANY I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH! i WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANYTHING HP AGAIN!

Bought a Desktop Pavillon Elite HPE from HP website 4 months old has been back to HP 2x and it just crashed again. Multiple problems have refused to give me a refund. Can not talk to anyone state side get INDIA and they have you basically do the work by taking all programs off and trying to fix it. I AM NOT A REPAIR PERSON AND DO NOT GET PAID TO FIX COMPUTERS. Just got the P.O.S back hooked it up tried to recover my backed-up programs (would not recover) then the CPU fan failed again, (one of the many problems) the CD bay would not open and the computer crashed. Tried calling the special # HP sent the last time [protected] and got voice mail. I would like to take that computer and throw it in the street. At least I have my Fujitsu laptop.

We have on numerous occasions contacted Let Me Repair regarding the abovementioned repair. We sent an HP Compaq laptop in for repair because it kept on switching itself off. This laptop was sent in for repair on 17/06/2011, this laptop was returned to us with a note stating that the LCD screen was replaced. This laptop belongs to one of our top management and this repair is urgent.

Upon testing the laptop we noticed that the problem was still occurring and in fact was worse than before. We contacted Let Me Repair Head office on the 4th of July and spoke to Charlene who said that she would elevate this repair as we cannot keep fitting the bill for courier costs to and from your repair centre. She has not got back to us to date. On the 5th we made a follow-up call and spoke to Bulelwa who emailed us a collection form, we then completed the form and emailed it back to [protected]@letmerepair.co.za and still received no confirmation from Let Me Repair and also had no correspondence from your side. On the 6th of July we contacted Charlene again who informed us that the matter had been escalated and she would forward us a confirmation of this via email as this was marked as urgent, which was also never done! On the 7th of July we contacted the Head Office and were informed that Charlene was on tea break and would call us back when she returned to her desk, which once again NEVER HAPPENED! It is now Let Me Repair’s responsibility to return this laptop to us at their cost as we have now been forced to make arrangements to deliver it ourselves. To date we still have not received our laptop back from let me repair and everytime we call, no one is available to talk to... They ALWAYS say they will call us back, but no one ever does! Let me repair is useless, please tell us who else we can take our HP's to for repair!

Do not purchase hp pavilion slimline s 5310y pc. Bought one a little over a year ago. Two months in, hard drive burns out. "oh so sorry will mail you out a new one. " god bless teenagers who know electronics and can install hard drives. Three months later. Hard drive burns out. After screaming match and not getting money back or new computer, get a new hard drive. Install. Two weeks ago. Hard drive burns out. "so sorry, your warrenty has expired. No new hard drive. " take piece of junk to local independent computer store/repair shop. "oh, the hard drive is to big for these models, the computer can't handle the heat and it fries the hard drive" store installs a new smaller hard drive for $148. As soon as this piece of glop of a pc dies i'm buying a new one made at this local computer store and I suggest everyone reading this do the same. They may not be "slimline" but they probably run like a tank. As far as hp. I've only been a cop for 26 years in a small city but I think I can smell a scam when it's under my nose. "hey we've got a whole product line of these hard drives that fit large computers. Lets just stick them in smaller pc's, call it slimline, and pawn it off on the stupid masses even if it doesn't work. It's not like anyone is going to tell us it's immoral or wrong. We're hewlett packard. "

Pros: the matte screen is the best part about this notebook

Cons: I have been getting many reports by other customers that this notebook is causing,
Thermal shutdowns, because of its poor engineering. The majority of consumers have reported this problem and I have not found a recall for this particular model, but there should be a recall of all hp 630 notebooks.

They have reported the screen getting garbled at first. The matte screen phases out to a corrupted mess of vertical lines. During this occurrence the fan starts spinning at full rpm.
About 5 to 10 seconds and the notebook shutsoff.
Red flag: do not buy

Hp 630 business notebook: been using for only 2 weeks just arrived 6/2/2011

Cpu: pentium p6200 (2.13ghz) 3mb l3 cache

Display: 15.6" led backlight, anti-glare

Video memory: shared system memory - intel hd graphics
Graphic type: integrated card
Memory: 4gb ddr3 1333 1 x 4gb __ 204-pin ddr3 so-dimm
Hard disk: 320gb
Dvd super multi
Lan and wlan
Dimensions: 14.8" x 9.72" x 1.25" - 1.41" ___ weight: 5.5 lbs.
Battery: 6-cell (47 whr) lithium-ion battery ____ 65-watt ac adapter

Problem: business notebook randomly has a corruption on the screen. I have monitored my pc right before event occurs and have used cpuid to monitor system temperatures. Temperatures stayed at a cool core #0_82*f and core#1_97*f. Screen randomly blanks out to a longitudinal pattern of strings on screen. Fan starts to get really loud during the previous onscreen corruption. Fan builds to a point that shuts the notebook off. Upon turning back on I get a message: thermal shutdown.

Prediction: notebook is not overheating to begin with> it does not overheat until the screen corrupts to the string pattern.

User commentary of troubleshooting:

Troubleshooting unfinished:

Eu stated that the unit overheats. User: no, overheating is not exactly the cause of the problem. Temperatures seem to remain below 160 degrees f. Or 71 degrees c during times of high use and idles at 98 degrees f. On average. I have been monitoring the system using cpuid and it does not show signs of overheating necessarily.

Eu mentioned that the unit shuts down. User: yes, the unit shutsdown while in the middle of a task, such as installing a program or running a cd. Before shutting down something very unusual happens. The screen does not completely black out or shut off, but it stays on showing a longitudinal pattern of various colored lines, as if the screen fails.

Advised the eu to clean the vent no go. User: no, cleaning out the vent is not a solution. This notebook is 2 weeks old. There isn't dust trapped inside the notebook. I could understand if it was a year old. Two weeks isn't enough time to collect a significant amount of dust or lint. It is pretty dumb to advise cleaning vents. Fan is working perfectly fine.

Eu mentioned that the fan spins very fast. User: yes, fan builds up rpm upon the screen being corrupted. Once screen messes up the fan starts spinning faster. The machine gets hot after the screen corrupts causing the fan to build rpm until pc shuts down automatically.

Eu when tries to power the unit gets a message thermal shut down.
User: yes, the screen being corrupted causes the shutdown. Upon turning the machine back on the pc shows a bios report of a "thermal shutdown. "

Summary troubleshooting: the overheating of this machine doesn't occur until the screen becomes corrupted. Upon the monitor going out the machines fan is then building rpm (To compensate for heat) ;
Therefore, overheating is not necessarily the issue. What is causing the screen to go out? Could it be a hard drive error?

If overheating is the cause: why is the fan delayed until the screen goes out to compensate for the sudden build up of heat?

I had purchased a hp pavilion dv6000 series laptop in 2009. Warranty over. But now I have a very serious problem with that. The display of my laptop not working a black screen only.

Reg : - complaint of new hp laptop purchased

I had purchases a hp laptop no hp 3124 tx with s no ina04608mx on 14/02/2011 for rs 57400 / - from hp authorised dealer - m/s daksh distribution & services, hazratganj, lucknow. The dealer has promised us that the said laptop is recent launch by hp and very fast with excellent battery backup of 3-4 hours.
But after we purchased the laptop we experienced that the laptop is running very slow even slower than the our home pc which was purchased 5 years ago. The battery backup of laptop is not more than 1 hour after 100% charging & sometimes even less. It often hangs up without showing any error or warning and then automatically shuts down.
When we bring the problem to the vender he simply refused to acknowledge the problem and not helped in any way. They told us to go to hp service center. We suspect that the vender has sold us a second hand laptop in a new packing, as when we reached the shop of vender the packing of laptop was open and they were using it & then they sold the same to us saying that it is new one.
We had also taken the laptop to hp service center who at first returned it back commenting that battery is alright, now again on 30.06.2011 we had taken the laptop to hp service center & now they are acknowledging that there are problems with the laptop that - battery is defective & it is heating up too much & even lcd screen is also defective. The laptop is lying with them and they are not giving any satisfactory reply when it would be repaired or replaced. Here through this platform I would like to lodge complaint against hp & vendor of hp - m/s daksh distributor & services, hazratganj - that they had sold a defective laptop to us by making false promises and now refusing to sort the matter.

I demand hp to replace the defective laptop with new laptop as soon as possible.

I bought a dv4-2112tx hp pavilion laptop from matrix centre. The first day it self the keyboard stopped working hp repaired but did not give a replacement. Then I went to India I faced another set of problems1) spoilt monitor 2) not working USB 3) not working DVD drive 4) and other problems related to os for ex laptop blinking on start up. This month I.e in may 2011 I gave it back to hp Singapore to repair problems like faulty keyboard and DVD drive and asked them to give me some sort of assurance that my hp will last for another year or two since they have harassed me for the first year itself...to this they give give me answers like "we will see what we can do" and haven't got a call back from them...they have harassed me and caused me stress for the past year.the whole year I have been running to hp care centers to get my product repaired...I have spent my hard earned money...I need at least an complimentary extension in the product warranty

I purchased a HP Pavillion (Model m5390f) on September 20, 2008. The computer stopped booting up on April 8, 2009. It took two technicians and 87 minutes for Tech Support to realize that there really was something wrong with my six month old desktop system. Since the computer is still under warranty, HP paid for the computer to be shipped to them. I received my repaired computer on May 1, 2009. The plug and play bay worked fine when the computer was shipped to the repair facility. It was returned broken. I have asked HP to send a technician to my home. They refused. I have asked for a new replacement. They refused. The only thing they offered to do was to escalate the matter to one of their complaint case managers. I asked for the name of the case manager who would be handling my case. A name could not be given. I asked when I would receive a call. I was told that the complaint case managers only work M-F from 9 to 5. The only technical support attempted was an East Indian woman with an accent thicker than molasses who wanted me to open the case to see if there was a loose wire. I finally just hung up the phone. It was obvious that there was no genuine desire on the part of HP's customer or tech support to provide any real assistance. They were just going to pass the buck on along to someone else. I have already filed a complaint with the BBB against HP for failure to honor their warranty and for poor repair work. I am now in the process of filing a complaint with my state's Office of Consumer Affairs. I am asking for a full refund or a new replacement. Chances are that I will get neither. Corporations do not have to answer to anyone anymore--not even the United States Federal Government! HP has very poor customer service. They do everything possible to frustrate you so that you will just plain give up. I have nothing positive to say about ther customer or technical support people. I do not think that HP is an ethical company. All they want is your money. I will never purchase another HP product as long as.

I have recently purchased one laptop hp g-62-461tu from one of the dealers in chennai. From the packet it has been observed that the same has been manufactured in china. The details of the laptop are (I) bar code ln 367pa#acj, hp-[protected], product key mqhtk-bchxw-862hg-v82kb-2x67b,
[protected], 1111

Since it was manufactured in china I wanted to find out the genuiness of the equipment. Therefore I contact hp technical support at toll free no [protected] for getting necessary clarifications on the subject. But I am unable to get a proper response from hp. I have paid rs 31, 000 / - for the above laptop. I am therefore really worried about the genuineness of the same. I am also not able to get the e-mail id of hp technical support centre to submit the above details and find out the latest.

Bought a laptop computer for my daughter. The display flickered when brand new sometimes staid on and sometimes intermittent problem or went dead. I got the feeling it was a open box items as I felt it was not properly or neatly packaged. We went to Fry's with the unit only 1-2 months old to address this problem. I had paid for extended warranty when I bought the computer they told us to send it ourself to the manufacturer. I had to argue with the manager that I had bought extended warranty and then he finally agreed to take the unit for repair and told me it 4-8 weeks. Now it is almost 6 weeks and no laptop computer. This company is a complete joke, I think they sold us a return from another customer and to add injury to insult did NOT honor extended warranty. I will never buy ANYTHING from this horrible store again and remind you if you buy a large ticket item there you are taking unnecessary risks and YES even if you buy extended warranty... This outfit is just a joke.

Hp worked with theiscorporation and CCA Global partners to place me in Tri City Medical. Aetna had my insurance controlled and labeled it as and institutional visit ie nap. Fidelity and aetna were the institutional component and HP worked with Ann Livermore and other HP executives. Hp asset management was the root of the issue stemming from a failed acquisition between north bridge partners appiq and Hewlett Packard. Mainly due to ETF violations on both domestically and internationally.

I purchased an hp product in late 2006. i never to my knowledge mistreated it ie dropped it, hit it on a wall, stepped on it, but as of late, i'm thinking about throwing it out the window.
One day, the thing just stopped working. i switched hard drives, nothing, changed the memory, nothing. it would turn on, and then imediately start rebooting itself every 4 or 5 seconds. the battery came out about 6 months prior due to massive overheating.
Hp sucks. and i want the world to know.
i also want the world to know that i am writing this from my new macbook pro. which will NEVER DIE.
thank you hp for sucking so bad.
