HP Poor customer service support

First, I have been a very loyal HP customer for several years. My husband is a tech guy therefore I have never had to request service from a HP tech. However, as my husband was unavailable today, I called to ask a simple question and was told by the tech that my printer was no longer under warranty and that he would have to charge me! What is that about. I find it appalling that I cannot contact HP and have a simple question answered. The first time I phoned the tech did guide me to your site for info however the second tech I spoke with was rude and when I stated that I was upset with the policy he hung up on me. I will never purchase another HP product and will advise colleagues and friends about this ridiculous policy. I was able to contact Apple and was guided by them. Sorry for this poor review but this is terrible customer service.

HP Faulty pc, terrible customer service

I purchased an all in one desktop over a month ago. I did not use the PC straight away as I was away and by the time I noticed that the USB ports on the side of the monitor were not functional, it had already passed the 30 day money back rule by a day. I mentioned to every staff member that I spoke to, that the ports on the monitor recognised a device being plugged in but was not able to open it. I was told I could not get a replacement, even though the PC is a month old. I agreed to have it repaired. I took time off from work to be home for the collection and the redelivery. I received a phone call a few days after the PC was with HP to ask what the issue was even though I went through this several times. I once again explained the situation and unfortunately after having the PC redelivered and 'fixed', I was very disappointed to find out that nothing was actually done. I spoke to another staff member about the situation and asked for an email contact to help me get a partial refund. The staff member refused that option and instead wasted over an hour of my time trying to remotely fix it. He said the BIOS recovery was corrupted and that I should try live lens. We were unable to try the live lens because I had to leave for work, I said I would contact someone today. I've sent another message this morning to sort it out with no response. It is very disappointing to know that a PC that cost a fair amount of money cannot be replaced because it has been 30 days since I purchased it when I had no fault in it being faulty. I did not notice the fault initially because I use the PC for creative work and did not need to initially use the slots.

Desired outcome: Partial refund, I don't want another failed repair.

HP Uk 10bd zbook studio g9 mobile wts / support

Took receipt of boxed UK 10BD ZBook Studio G9 Mobile WTS; Serial No: 5CG3117QNG; Product No: 62U38EA on 29 Jun 23. The charging unit in the box was defective; the PIN in the Recess offset / misaligned so that it does not fit the Laptop Charging Port.

The client has never been able to use the Charging unit.

I have raised at least two calls with HP for a replacement charger via the Support Portal;

#[protected] - no assistance offered and closed by HP. I re-opened and closed again.

#[protected] - just ignored and closed by HP.

I have ran a request through WhatsApp - allegedly cannot help.

When I eventually got the correct Telephone No: to call in on, only viable option is to append your own mobile which sends a text stating use Chat through the portal; which has proven to not be effective.

HP are proving to be difficult to communicate with; the who process being challenging and appear to be abstaining from their responsibility of the supply of a faulty product.

Desired outcome: Replacement charging unit.

HP HP Desktop all in one computer

I bought a new computer directly from HP online in the end of May 2023. About three weeks ago, I could not access the internet with the Edge Browser. After two tech session of approximately two to three hours, they still could not fix the problem. The reloaded the MS Windows 11 and Edge Browser Software to no avail. I have wasted countless hours of my time working on a lemon of a computer. Now they want me to send it to a repair facility. That means I would have to reformat the hard drive to insure my personal information is destroyed and cannot access stock records bank accounts etc. etc. I just want my money back or a prorated portion. But, all I get is the run around. I have never been through such a cluster of inefficiency in my entire life and I worked in the military and state government.

Desired outcome: Refund prorated portion of my purchase price.

HP Monitor under warranty

Hi,

On 1 July 2023, I received an invoice from a shipping company asking me to pay for an item I sent you under warranty. The HP rep. told me I didn't have to pay to return the damage equipment. I was told to put the item in the same box I received the replacement equipment. A return label was provided by HP. So, I did. The shipping company sent HP an invoice for the equipment, monitor, I returned. HP refused to pay for the service, instead asked them to redirect the invoice to me. I'm refusing that charge, because HP rep told me I didn't have to pay to send back the equipment under warranty. Also, I tried to contact the HP rep that assisted me in the warranty process, but he wasn't available. I left a message on his phone, but he has not responded yet. I send him few emails with the same luck.

Thanks.

Desired outcome: Please resolve this situation ASAP.

HP HP Envy 6055 Printer

Case Number [protected] – Closed

Product Description: HP ENVY 6055e All-in-One Printer

Product Number: 223N1A

Serial Number: TH21SDG0ZK

Case Subject: Printer offline.

The above case was closed without a resolution. When I was notified via email that it was closed I called and inquired why it was closed with no resolution. There was no explanation and a new case was opened. Case Number [protected] – Created) So far I have been told this is an issue between my ISP Spectrum and the printer which was an issue when I purchased this printer as well. The printer is sitting on my kitchen counter as they want it closer to the router but it does not print and I have asked repeatedly for it to be replaced and no it has not nor was it printed on the label that it does not work with Spectrum as the ISP nor is it in the literature online. I want a refund or a printer that works with Spectrum. I have even been ridiculed/mocked by having a supervisor of the technical team at HP, Kumar, send me a youtube video showing me how to push a button to reset the wifi. He knew I had done this 4 times as a purple light comes on and I had told him that 4 times. I don't like being insulted and at that point I ended the conversion and his remote access to my computer. How do I know he did not do something with this link/remote access? I'm so over dealing with HP in terms of my wasted time reperforming the same tasks to get this printer up and running. It is just junk. I have extra brand new cartridges that I want to return as well.

Desired outcome: New non HP printer at this point so a refund

I agree with DL 62,

This printer is crap. I'm in the market for a new printer and it won't an HP. This printer has issues with quality printing, is always offline, and with hours spent trying to link it with my phone and computer has me shopping for a reliable printer, however, now I'm stuck with wasted ink cartridges and paper. BUYER BEWARE!

HP Customer service order number: bvbp177901

My HP Envy TE02-0020 Desktop PC, which I bought in December (only six months ago), stopped working emitting three long beep followed by three short ones. I called HP Support Center and after several attempts by the technician on the phone to fix the problem, he said I had to send the PC to their shop for repair. After a few days, they email me saying that the problem was caused by "Customer Induced Damage" and therefore the warranty would not cover the repair and that I had to pay $212.93 if I wanted the PC repaired. Attached was a photo of two boards (I have no idea what they are), which I presume are the damaged parts that need replacement. I consider this a blatant attempt of HP to not honor their warranty. This is a relatively brand-new computer WHICH HAS NEVER BEEN OPENED as I am sure they can confirm. To say that this is an "HP Customer Induced Damage" is outrageous and an attempt to default on their warranty and to cover-up some defect which seems to be very common judging from complaints on the web.

Desired outcome: HP should honor their warranty, repair the PC and return it to its owner at nocharge instead of blaming the customers with damaging parts inaccessiblethrough normal use of the equipment.

HP Online store

I have an HP Envy still under warranty, and wanted to increase the amount of RAM, so called HP online store for help. I was advised by an expert sales rep who I could barely understand, as to the exact product I should buy, and it was not an HP product available thru the store. I bought that product, it didnt fit and I returned it. I called the HP online store again, talked to another expert sale rep who looked up my computer by account, model and serial number, and told me the RAM product I needed to buy, and I bought it on June 13, 2023. Cost, $269. It arrived a week later and I installed it. After installation, my computer came on but not the monitor, and instead the computer began a series of 3 long beeps followed by 2 short beeps. I removed the new RAM and the computer worked fine. I called HP expert tech support for help, and in the 11 reps I talked with over 2 days, I had trouble understanding all of them, English not being their native language. However, the important thing is, no one knew what the beeps were. Finally the last tech said he researched the problem and found that my HP Envy could not take additional RAM, even though it had 4 RAM slots, 2 empty. I was transferred to an HP online store expert sales rep who I was told would process my return. Note, this entire process and complete waste of time was the fault of HP. After 30 minutes of answering questions and providing information to the sales rep, she told me she didnt process returns. I asked her why Ive been talking to her for 30 minutes but could not understand what she answered, other than I could apply for a return and refund online. I got online and applied for a return and refund, printed a return label packed the RAM in its original packing and returned it on June 22, 2023. I began to get emails from HP telling me I could exchange it for something else, and ignoring my request for refund. Im extremely upset about this entire event including 2 wasted days of my time, many hours on the phone, some of them holding and having to endure the worst horrible, screeching "music" Ive ever heard. I want my money back, and none of this should have occurred if I had received correct information and advice from HP reps. Nothing...in this process was my fault yet HP is hassling me on getting a refund.

Desired outcome: I WANT MY MONEY BACK.

HP HP Envy 2-in-1 computer

I purchased this HP Envy 2022 x360 convert laptop 15.6"FHD touchscreen, intel quad-core i5-1135G7 (Beat i7-1065G7) 16 GB DDR4 RAM, 512GB PCIe SSD, WiFi 6, Type-C, Windows 10, BROAG 64 GB Flash Stylus in December, 2022. It never worked correctly but at first I thought it was a software issue. I began complaining about it in Mid April. HP tech support tried seven times to fix it virtually but could not so my case was referred to their Escalations Dpt. My first contact with Escalations was by email on May 5, 2023. This person jerked me around with unreturned calls, ignored emails and texts and who wanted to find an old computer and "customize it" to have the same features as the one I purchased. I refused that solution. I made daily phone calls until June 9, when I was referred to Genesis in Escalations. He said they would replace the computer with a new one. It arrived this morning. It is obviously a huge step down from the defective computer I purchased last December. It does not have the numerical keyboard nor the finger print sign in. I requested the specs on this computer but have been ignored by Genesis. This computer is in no way comparable to the computer I purchased. I am requesting this computer be replaced with a computer having all the features of the one I paid for. HP is not responding to my emails. The case number with HP is [protected]. The phone number for Genesis is [protected] ext 055

Desired outcome: I want a new computer with all the features of the one I purchased AT A MINIMUM as described above. I would also accept a refund of the total cost of the computer $867.51.

HP HP Chromebook 14b-cb0004na

case number BTZD227301

This was purchased through QVC but I soon discovered it was a Known problem and shouldn't have bee sent to QVC in the first place.

The options I was given were:

1. To return it to QVC with a refund

2. To speak to HP themselves

As I particularly wanted this product I decided not to go back to QVC as a) there were no more and b) I believed that all the others would have the same issue

I contacted HP and they said they would take it back however before that I had to have a remote engineer call to try and remotely fix it including ‘cleaning it’ and going back to Factory setting, which didn’t work.

Laptop collected but keep getting told there are delays and have been without laptop for 8+ weeks with a proposed fix date of end of June.

Should have just sent a new replacement next day.

Desired outcome: New laptop

HP ink cartridges

HP decided to make their ink cartridges larger they are calling XL. Those don't fit in my printer. First I went online to get ink since so many stores don't carry the 564 anymore. I didn't realize until I opened the package that the cartridge was too big. And since I opened it, they will not accept a return. I have a useless ink cartridge.

Then second I did find 564 at Walmart. However, my biggest complaint is when I got it home, inside was an XL cartridge but nowhere on the packaging did it say XL. I now have to take the time to return it to the store and I still can't use my machine.

I went online to chat with customer service on 5-17 and the guy was no help and was trying to get me to join the automatic ink "club" instead of resolving my issue.

Desired outcome: I want a refund for both cartridges or a replacement of both in the right size.

HP Hp8030

I have purchased numerous hp products over the years, computers for me, for my kids as well as printers. They now disgust me so much that I will never spend another dime on their products. I bought a new printer about 3 years ago and it came with free ink for two years. This turned out to be a big scam. I did not use the printer for about two years due to illness. I went to use it the other day and it told me that I needed to get an Ethernet cable bc it could not find the Wi-Fi. Still could not print so I called Microsoft bc I thought it might be due to a recent update. I spent the whole day on the phone with them and they could not fix it. So today I tried to delete the printer and reinstall it. I then got a message that my printer had be disabled by HP. I was on the phone all day again with them to try to resolve. It turns out that they say that I owed them money for ink. I got one ink refill within the 2 years of my free ink period. But the real issue is that they invaded my home and disabled my fully paid for printer without my consent or knowledge and held it hostage until I paid the ransom. Is this even legal? I am looking into a class action lawsuit. Anyone want to join me?

Desired outcome: To follow

HP Desktop and HP EnvyPhoto 6255

Network Sharing with Printer -- not connecting properly to the laptop.

Called [protected] 4 x and went through an Automated agent and verified my device and it disconnected the line each time.

Called [protected] HQ and went through an Automated agent, verified my device and it also disconnected the line twice.

HP Smart App - through troubleshooting reset wifi on the printer and tried to add a printer to the laptop by the IP address. A fatal error message popped up C0000022 on my HP screen and directed me to a phone number: [protected]. It was a scam website(hp.cUSTOMERSupportscam.May2023.org) that requested that we use their service of $200 plus there was a subscription of $500 to secure our network.

Because I could not get through to the HP Support telephone number, my husband contacted our Security provider and fixed the printer problem.

I am not impressed that I can no longer trust HP Smart Application on our computers. [protected]@gmail.com

Desired outcome: Please provide me with a reliable customer support telephone number for any future issues. Also, please check to see if my printer is up to date on software, drivers, etc.

HP deskjet 2720e

I cannot print to this printer, I cannot install a printer driver, it goes into a loop.

Online support is really bad. I waited 14 hours for someone to come online, and it takes 10-20 minutes to get a response from them. The process is far too time-consuming, and so far there has been no progress.

I've now been waiting 38 minutes for a response to the online "chat". At this rate it could be days before I get any closer to a solution.

I am so very, very fed up with HP and the awful "support".

Desired outcome: I would really like for someone to be able to fix the problem. If someone could PLEASE enter into a genuine conversation with me, where I don't wait for 40 minutes for a response, that would help.

HP Instant ink - card charges

For over 7 years, my company has used the instant ink program in our offices across the US. Our offices are located within our client facilities and usually have no more than 4 people assigned.

The offices fall under a Regional Director (RD). We have always used the RD's company credit card in all of the accounts that fall under them. Recently, we had a change in the RD position and the new RD tried to enter their company card for their new sites. The instant ink site repeatedly rejected the cards and gave a message of "card type not accepted." We got this message despite the company cards on other accounts being still charged and fully active.

Customer Service has been unable to help at all. Some don't understand the problem and have no suggestions. Only on CSR has even seemed interested in solving the problem and help as much as could. He discovered that we needed to speak with the HP Business department and tried to connect us. He was told that he could not connect us and that we needed to start from scratch with a new complaint to get to them. We did this over the next week, and they hung up on us when we got through.

This ordeal has been going on for 4 weeks now and there is still no resolution and everyone we are able to contact seems uninterested in trying to help. The inability to change cards is now affecting our work sites.

Desired outcome: We would like to speak with someone to resolve by accepting our business cards for our instant ink accounts or refunds for printers purchased and instant ink charges as we would be moving away from HP and on to another solution.

HP HP omen division purchasing experience...

Since placing an order for a "custom built" machine on 10 February 2023 I have been met with nothing but delays and misinformation. The machine I ordered includes parts that apparently HP is not able to readily get to build machines... at best this would qualify as a "pre-order" which would imply a charge at the time when you could actually provide the equipment you were selling.

I have been met with multiple promised "estimated ship dates" of which none have been met... All have required follow up on my part to attempt to get an accurate status of the situation... then met with false assurances for future fairly near term solutions.

I have documented my experience thoroughly with chat transcripts... and will share this experience more widely. I felt that before providing this very BLEAK and what should be embarrassing set of facts widely I would at least do you the courtesy of informing you of the situation first.

As it stands at this very moment... I informed your team on Friday the 14th that I needed order refunded in full and that I also needed compensation of some kind for large amount that this process has cost me in time from work, access to my funds and lost project income due to not having the machine as promised. I was met with a reply that the supervisor of the supervisor would have to get back to me... in 1-2 days. I confirmed that included the weekends so should have heard back from someone to address my issues yesterday. At this point I have not heard from anyone... and when I called your division back again... was met with the answer that I would have to wait for a call back to address the fact that I did not receive a call back. IRONY at its finest. I am now awaiting that call...

I will happily provide you with all the transcripts of my interactions and also the timeline of events if you care to know further.

Desired outcome: Full Refund and compensation for lost time / work projects / opportunity cost of the expensive payment.
