HP started hazzy lines and went bad within 4 months, accepted for repair but not completed within 2 months and requestint two more months now

I bought hp monitor from lulu center here in muscat. It went bed within 3 to 4 months with hazy lines coming on the monitor and faded colors. I submitted to hp service center. They initial requested two months for repair and now two more months. Total 4 months. Actually still not sure about delivery. They have redingote as their local repair service company. They expressed their helplessness. My job card number with them is 1640734. My question is 1) how hp can provided such poor quality products ? 2) how can they don't have spares with them ? 3) how it is possible for any one to live without a computer screen without more than 4 months.In my opinion they should simply regret rather than requesting a time of 4 months.

HP RESELLS OLD PARTS IN NEW HARDWARE! We bought a new laptop. It crashed out of the blue. The Event Viewer history went all the way back to 2011. We have someones old hard drive. I didn't find anything unlawful on it, thank goodness. HP sent software for a hardware problem. There is a clause in HP's warranty that allows them to do this. My wife feel it's her fault because she bought it as a christmas gift for me. She's not blame, HP is.

HP poor product

Bought 3 x HP Officejet Pro 8500A (A910a) printers. These printers were bought at around R1800 each. The Training Centre need a high quality printer to print the certificates we issue to our clients.

On Monday, 7 October 2013, I suddenly started experiencing a problem with one of the 8500A printers (CN171CM581) I personally use. I kept on getting a message from the printer instructing me to clear a paper jam. There was no paper jam. Obviously, it was a false paper jam message. I took the printer to the local agents. They informed me that they must send the printer to HP to have a look. The other two printers were still working fine. I took another HP Officejet 8500A (CN171CM54Z) and started using it while my first HP printer was in for repairs.

On Wednesday, 9 October 2013, I receive a call from the local agents informing me that the printer was no more under guarantee. One year have expired since it was bought and the only explanation could be that the responsible person at the training centre did not do her job and register the printers on the internet as she was supposed to do!. The local agents further informed me that they receive a quotation from HP that it would cost around R2900.00 to repair the printer. I nearly blow my top!. How could it cost R1100.00 more to repair the printer than it originally cost!.

On Thursday morning, 17 October 2013, the second HP Officejet Pro 8500A (CN171CM54Z) printer I was now using, suddenly gave the exact same message and refused to work any further. That is when I personally started to make calls to find out what was going on. I went onto the net and started looking around to see if other people also have the same problem. O Boy! What a surprise, the net is full of complaints and yes I got my answer. Suddenly the remark made by the lady I spoke to during my first call to Ensure Service (HP appointed service agents - Gauteng) made a lot of sense. She said that this was a common problem with this printer but refuse to speak any further except that I must get into my car and bring the printer in for repairs. Hello, I am just 400km from Ensure Services in Lichtenburg, North West Province!

It also became clear that something must have broken. I realise that I am the only person in the office that started using the 2-side printing feature on the printer. I only started using this feature about 3 weeks ago. Obviously that must be part of the problem – this printer do have this feature but due to a factory flaw this printer can’t handle this feature and that is why the part (plastic gear) is breaking. Because nobody else in the office is using the 2-sided printing option the last printer is still going strong! I instructed them not to even try using this special feature.

My question is what now? Clearly this is a flaw of the printer or the flaw plastic gear. Why must we, the customer now be penalised for a bad product when the 2-sided printing option is clearly marked as a main feature of this printer. How are we going to solve this matter? HP cannot expect their customers to pay for the repairs of a product that was clearly flawed from day one and cannot handle a feature that is used as a selling point for this specific printer.

Never in my life an HP product again!

HP the terrible exprience with hp technical support servis in turkey

In sep. 2011, I bought a hp pavilion dv6 3120 notebook which has i7 processor. The product didnt make me happy. It has excessively heating problems. Even if no application is open on the notebooks desktop, its main board and cpu are working on 75 degrees and above. When you open some apps like explorer, product temperatures are reaching 90 degrees. Due to high heating problem, its fan is always working noisy. Its keyboard is warming much over than normal that makes the product not confortable for using.
In scope of product guaranty of my notebook, I sent my notebook 5 times for this problem to hp technical service in turkey. At the end of each services they sent back the product which is written & ldquo;they find and solve the problem” service operation note attached. But the same problem is still going on. Unhappily, it appears like they sent back the product with doing nothing. After those insoluble process I called hp call center and explained my complain an authorized personnel again. She told me, there is notting to they can do. Do you think the answer meaningful?
If you want more detail of my complain records, you can search with my product serial number cnf0490htq, model number xr547ea in hp turkey system. And you can see the mail in turkish, that I sent to hp turkey with the problems screen shot, link below.

HP hp computers worst after sales service

This is to inform that not only your dealers cheat people by giving wrong information about HP product to sell HP products but your customer care service is even worst. Today I got a call from your Customer Relations Case Manager (GIRIJA TS) (EMAIL ID: girija.[protected]@hp.com) regarding my complain for HP SLATEBOOK X2 POOR BATTERY LIFE She is telling me that nothing can be done about your complain. SHE called me at 2:43 pm on 25/9/2013 and told me now nothing can be done about this now you also know that no tablet can give 12 to 14 hrs of battery backup. Then after argueing with her about the misleading information given to me by HP dealer TECHSMART SYSTEMS PVT.LTD SALES OFFICE 1/122 GF, SHANKER ROAD OLD RAJINDER NAGAR NEW DELHI 110060 about the battery back GIRIJA TS told me that has the dealer given me in writing that the tablet would give me 12 to 14hrs of battery backup or given me any specs sheet regarding this I said no but I am sure of this that their salesman said sir I can confirm you that the tablet will give you between 12 to 14 hrs of battery backup. I also told her that good battery back is the main criteria for me to buy the HP SLATEBBOK X2 tablet. Then she told me sorry sir we cannot do anything about this now and put my phone on hold and 2 to 3 mins disconnected my phone.
This is really very nice on HP COMPUTERS behalf how they treat their customers complain by doing these things calling them and telling them that nothing can be done about their complain and putting their phone on hold.

I would like to file a complain against HP Customer Relations Case Managar Girija TS(Email id: girija.t-s@hp.com Tel: +080-[protected] Hewlett-Packard Company Bangalore – 560066 Karnataka, India). I got a call from her on (25/9/2013 at 5:44 pm) against my complain for the wrong information given to me regarding the battery life by HP computer dealer TECHSMART SYSTEMS PVT.LTD SALES OFFICE 1/122 GF, SHANKER ROAD OLD RAJINDER NAGAR NEW DELHI 110060 to sell HP computer product HP slatebook x2 on 3/8/2013. She was not customer friendly, was very rude and defensive and was not listening to problem and was constantly saying that nothing can be done about my complain and now I have to live with the poor battery life of the slatebook x2. She had poor listening skills and was augmentative and aggressive. She conferenced me with the dealer from whom I bought the slatebook x2 and both of them were arguing with me and were not understanding my concern. I cannot interact with her now because she is constantly suppressing my voice over her voice and telling me now you have bought the product and nothing can be done and I should stop complaining about this matter. Could you please assign someone more mature and professional who knows how to talk to their customers. I am extremely disappointed at your service ethics and unprofessional behavior .As a next step, I do not like this product, could you please give me a refund?

HP computer repair and customer service

I had purchased a HP Probook 4530s in August of 2012 with my financial aid, and I must say a great computer but in Feb of 2013, this year my video and audio went out. Completely. I contacted HP because I knew my warranty covered this issue. I talked to them and the next day they had a box at my door with a note to put my laptop, battery, and charger in the box...I did, the next day shipped it off. Well should of been fixed right? No. 4 days later I receive my laptop back from HP in worse conditions. Here is a list of everything missing.
Hard-Drive
Keyboard
RAM
Memory
Disk Drive
Back Panel of my laptop (even the screws)
To anyone this is unacceptable. I contacted HP furious. They called me a liar and told me I send it in that way, when I didn't. Then they openly admitted to lying about it cause they told me they opened it up and found "bug poop" in it. Basically my case went on for over a month, and randomly they call me one day and say we can't help you in this case, told me they weren't doing anything for it, and hung up on me. So now I have a 750.00 computer in a box. That I can't do anything with because HP won't help me when they did it.

My brother purchased for me on April 10 for my birthday an HP notebook (laptop) computer model 2000, (product # D1E88UA#ABA ). I have had nothing but trouble with it. I called the HP Technical support and dealt with Javier who recommended I send it in for repair since it's under warranty. HP provided a box and postage and I sent it in. Received it back 2 weeks later with the same issues. A week later I contacted Javier at HP again, this time for the same 3 issues and an additional one. The additional issue was repaired, but not the other 3 issues. Was told by Javier to fax him my receipt, and after obtaining a duplicate from Best Buy ( where it was bought) I faxed him the receipt. Have not heard from him since, and every time I call HP customer support or technical support, Javier is conveniently not there but will call me. This runaround has been going on for 1 1/2 weeks now. He also told me that he was going to try to get his boss to send me a NEW laptop which also has not happened. I am totally disgusted by a terrible product with very subpar customer service and am advising everyone I know and consumer protection sites as to my horrendous experience with Hewlett Packard

HP Smartfriends miss represented their services to me when I applied in January. They installed Mozy Pro back up on my HP computer and said I could cancel at any time. They failed to explain that it would be a $70.00 cancellation fee. They said I could cancel HP Smartfriends and still retain Mozy Pro Backup which wasn't true. They told me that if anything...

HP scam

DO NOT CALL THESE ###! They take your credit card info and then POUND your card multiple times for fees they were NEVER authorized to charge even ONCE! When I called them about their bogus charges, they said they need 10 days to two weeks to due an internal investigation! No case # no info was given to me they just HUNG UP with me in mid sentence...this is a classic CC SLAM scam used buy long distance carriers back in the day when these scummy sales people would call and switch your service to their company without authorization...I knew better than to buy any HP product because of their terrible performance (printers)...but don't call their Service Dept. YOU WILL BE CHARGE FOR WORK YOU DON'T AUTHORIZE ON PRODUCTS THAT ARE STILL UNDER WARRANTY! These are the types of incidents that have so many people vilifying all BUSINESSES in our country...so it's important we single out and then steer clear of those Corp./Businesses that are truly unprofessional and unworthy of consumer support...HP is one of them! To the little HP punk who thinks he made a nice commission off me...I hope our call was truly recorded...because you should be out of a job!

I also was and am a victim and they keep trying to withdraw from my credit card even though they couldn't fix my laptop and I no longer have it. My credit card company is working with me to handle this and they call their actions FRAUD since they keep trying to get their money by using different names other than HP remote services. BUYER BEWARE

I also paid for hp-remote-services-[protected]-ma, & they fixed nothing. It was my understanding that I was buying an HP extended warranty. Was I ripped off?

HP product/customer service

purchased a HP Compaq cq2025 computer from staples on March 26 2012. Within weeks the hard drive went and I took it back to staples to be sent away for repairs. When I got it back it never ran as fast and it was a bit glitchy. But nothing I could not live with, but I feel it was most likely repaired with recondition parts. At the beginning of march 2013 the computer once again stopped working altogether and once again took it back to staples to be sent for repairs, this time it was the hard drive once again and the motherboard. Since my warranty was about to expire, and given that the computer was a lemon and something was causing the hard drive to fail I was forced to purchase a 2 year extended warranty from staples. The computer is still not running as it was when new. I called hp customer support, and explained to no less than 10 different operators and was shuffled and transferred from person to person, till I finally refused to explain again what the problem was. I then requested an email for head office and was told there was not one, ODD that a computer co. has no email. I asked for a phone number to head office, apparently there is not a number. So I explained for the 11th time how I was forced to purchase an extended warranty from staples and that H.P. should have extended the warranty on a computer that was obviously defective from the start. I was told to return my warranty to staples for a refund as it did not cover replacement parts and i would have to pay extra for things like hard drives ect should any part need to be replaced as my staples warranty did not cover such things, I was repeatedly told that for 79.99 I could purchase and 1 year extended warranty from H.P. but The offer was only good at that moment and it was a special price for me alone. The rep was insistent and yelling at me with the special offer. I finally had to hang up. With no resolution. I then called staples very upset about the fact that my warranty did not cover parts, only to find out I was lied to by the rep. As it turned out my warranty was for 2 years cost only 64 dollars and covered everything including parts also, should the computer fail in year 2 of the warranty I would be given 300 dollar credit towards a new computer. So the rep. flat out lied about no email for head office, no phone number and also lied about my staples warranty in order to get me to purchase a H.P. warranty for more money and covering only 1 year. Was also told that out of 10, 000 computers they make one faulty one, that it happens, and so sad for me that I was the one who had the bad luck to get it. The computer is still not running right but H.P. does not stand behind their product and have the worst customer service I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. I will never purchase any thing from h.P. again and will tell any one who will listen, not to but if they do they better hope nothing ever goes wrong with it and they never have to call H.P. customer support

The company did get in touch with me finally and offered to replace it . Just be careful when you purchase a replacement battery unless it comes directly from the manufacturer.

HP defective piece

I have purchase new hp laptop on 25 february 2013 from carrefour in bawadi mal, al ain. It was sold to me defective piece. When I switch on laptop one massage I received that "system detected fan is not working" to continue press enter. I press enter and I found clear screen. There were no any icon like " my computer, my document, recycle bean etc. ". I called them back after I reached at home and they reply very badly that sir we will sent to company and you will get repair. Here I need to clear one thing that I dont have car, I went in bawadi mall by texy and come back also by texy. So what carrefour management thinking that costumer will come back if we carrefour sold them defaulted items and we will serve service such a way and get credit.
Its my humble request to take some strong action against this play.

HP customer service on laptop

Why do I hate HP customer service. LET ME COUNT THE WAYS.

This has been on my bucket list for so long. I finally decided, today, that I cannot take it anymore. I am going to share this with everyone because I know you all have similar stories and are equally frustrated, but do not have the time to do anything about it. I am going to speak on the behalf of everyone who hates the service we are getting in America, the beautiful.

The worst part of all is that most companies in America are outsourcing everything. Some of these customer service representatives can make you go from one to ten in a nanosecond. Their thinking is very concrete. Many do not have a good grasp of the English language. I believe they rely on flowcharts. If you say, “No, ” they look to see what it says in the corresponding box and repeat it verbatim. They should start answering the phone, “How may I be of absolutely no assistance to you today?”

Two years ago, I sent my Special Edition HP laptop to be serviced. I really loved that computer. The hinge was coming apart, which I realize was my fault because I sometimes picked it up by the cover. I had just a few days left on my three year warranty. I got the computer back and it was working well, but five days later it completely crashed. I ended up buying a new HP laptop, which is not nearly as nice. Just recently, I sent the new one to be serviced. I made a joke to my sister that in five days, it would crash. Low and behold, that is exactly what happened. It is telling me to use my recovery disc. I just find this to be too much of a coincidence to be a coincidence.

I remember buying a three year home contract when I bought this computer. When I called for service, the representative said I did not have a contract. I read off the product number from my invoice. The service rep said that it was not a valid number. I kept calling to see if I could get a representative who could help me. They kept saying, “No, you do not have a service contract.” How about the customer is always right. How about saying they are going to check into it and get back to you. I eventually found the paperwork for the service contract. I had to register my service agreement. This must be one of their latest tricks to make money. I did not read my receipt because I was too busy and that is what they are counting on. By the time you make your first service call, you cannot remember if you bought the extended service contract or not.

Once I registered my service contract, they admitted I had a service contract. If I had not found that paperwork, I would be dead in the water. That is exactly what happened to my husband’s computer. I bought a service contract via phone and had no way of proving it when he needed technical support. I wonder how much profit they make on this little scam.

I am so sick and tired of these people repeating everything you say by using the alphabet. “A” as in Apple, “B” as in baby, etc. A call that would ordinarily take five minutes can take over an hour. I heard that they enjoy torturing us and laugh about it in the bullpen.

When I called about renewing my service agreement for my last computer, the service representative gave me a price, but I realized it did not include hardware. I said, “I did not want to pay for their HOTLINE service only.” She said, “Sorry, ma’am, you are not listening to me.” I said, “No, I get it. You want me to buy your lousy service without hardware support for the same price as I was paying for telephone and hardware support.” Honestly, I would rather break my computer over my head than talk to them. I started to realize that I was doing everything I could to avoid having to call them. My son refuses to call them. My husband does not even bother to get the service contract extended because he also refuses to talk to them. I decided from now on, I am going to use their chat line. In this way, I do not have to go through the alphabet multiple times. I wonder how many other people feel this way.

Once a customer service representative gave me instructions on how to fix my computer. I said, “Won’t this delete my programs and files?” He assured me it would not, but it would take a while. He asked me to call back when it was done. I called back and the next customer service representative said that I had deleted all my files and that there was nothing he could do about it. He said, “I am sorry.” You are not the only one who is sorry, buster!

My son’s computer was in warranty. I was told to send it to the HP Service Center. I would call to ask the status. They would say that they did have the part. After a month went by, I called to state that their service contract indicates that the computer would be sent back within 10 working days. One representative said, “Well, do you want us to send you back your computer without the part.” That was obviously not from the flowchart, just plain stupidity. It took me three months before this was resolved in a satisfactory manner and more aggravation than I have ever known. I could go on and on, but I know you have your own annoying stories.

So many Americans cannot get employment and would do a great job at this if given the opportunity. They would even be happy to accept the same salary at this point. I would be willing to pay more for the option.

I remember watching a skit on Saturday Night Live with Gilda Ratner. She was all tied up. She managed to call 911. The recording said something like this: “Touch “1” if you are being burglarized, “2” if there is a gun pointed to your head and “3” if you are getting raped.” That is about the size of customer service in America. I feel sorry for the elderly who need to make a phone call. These phone trees are getting more and more expansive. It is really bad when they cannot recognize a simple “Yes” or “No.”

Oh, by the way, HP will no longer give you a hardware contract for a laptop after three years because it was built to only last only three years. I have had to buy a new laptop every three years. Dell is no better. I hear the same complaints from my sister.
