Look at the below text.. If you are wise, you will never buy hp products again! Who has time to go through all of this?



Note that I have 2 non-working laptops from hp - in warranty! : - (i need both fixed immediately or my money back! I'm going to file credit card dispute for claim and bbb complaint within 24 hours now.

Hi ruffell,

Thank you for your time to look into the issue of my hp notebooks not working. I run a business and am currently in india.

Here is my indian address :

Roshan shah
11/125, rameshwar apts, nr. Petrol pump,
Sola road, ahmedabad - 380 063
Phone : 91-79-[protected]
Cell : 91-[protected]

I am a canadian citizen and travel often between india/canada I have 2 hp notebooks purchased in canada. 3 months back one laptop stopped working and I contacted hp canada and hp india in all forms. As a matter of fact, hp india even disabled my online support login in their itr because they kept closing tickets and I kept creating new ones ([protected], [protected], [protected], [protected]). I even copied hp ceo on last few emails that hp support is not helping here.

On the other side, I was told on number of occassions that case was escalated and hp manager would call me and this never happened till today when I told that i'll not hang up on phone till I speak with a case manager and I was directed to you and finally we spoke. Even hp canada is no different - I had 2 tickets opened and nothing happened ([protected], [protected]). The worse part is that I as a customer can't even review the ticket log. Hence I had to start recording the calls : - (

This clearly shows the flaw in how hp handles its support. If this is how hp puts a customer through to get their problem resolved with so much mental harassment, I think I have to really take this up seeking damages.

As promised, here is the case manager in india I spoke to :

Upendra kumar was the case manager.In. [protected]@hp.com

I spoke to upendra 10 days back and he was not able to assist since hp india could not access tickets starting with 801. I am also not sure why did I have to act as a middle man here when this should be strictly hp's internal issue. I need an explanation on this as why I had to put up with all this and want both the laptops to be picked up, fixed and delivered back to me with no loss of data!

I'm certainly going to claim damages from hp. Would be very wrong if every customer has to go through this!

I also have same problem like you all have faced with HP computers. I have faced every problem that you guys have gone through. Is that possible that all come together and file a complaint against HP? I think it would be the only way when HP may stop harassing and coning its customers. Please post your thoughts guys?

This is in reference to repairing of my laptop which is given for repairing at your HP Service Center at Sakinaka(case# [protected]). The name of the center is Simtech Computronics (P) LTD. I feel like I have made a mistake by visiting this repair office.

I had given by laptop on Last monday i.e on 11/5/2009 and today it is 21/5/2009. They think either HP customers are foolish or they are trying prove HP as a fraud company.

I had purchased the laptop from HP authorized delar Checkmate computers Borivli(W)- mumbai last may 2008 and warranty expires on 18/5/2009. hp REPAIR CENTER have told me that the issue was with faulty motherboard and they have ordered a new mother board twice but some how, surprisingly they said both the times they got wrong part(wrong motherboard) -(have u ever hear even a child makes the same mistake twice?). Now, they have ordered the mother board third time on tuesday which they have not yet received till thursday night.

Regards,
Hitesh B

i got the same kind of reply from HP. their attitude towards customer is horrible.

I guess they are selling too many laptops and don't care. there should be a stricter consumer redressal system in India then only these people will fall in line.

When it comes to computers, HP makes junk.
When it come to printers, they know their stuff and make the best and most reliable and durable printers in all classes - inkjet, color, laser.

I never bought an HP computer because I have seen too many bad reviews, but I've only bought HP printers for the past 15 years and every one of them has worked like a champ.
