In 2004 I purchased a Dell and swore I would never buy from them again. Follishly, I just bought a Alienware laptop and found they are just as bad as they were in 2004.
First, they offered 3-5 day shipping. When the order printed it had changed to 5-7 day shipping. No problem...I will just call Dell "Customer Service" and straighten it out, thought I. STUPID!!!
I got the usual third world, barely intelligible support employee. As I explained my simple problem, I could hear the keyboard clicking away. Thereafter came the programed response. "I am sorry for the inconvienance. You have ordered 5-7 day shipping and I see that is what the order calls for" came the read aloud response. "No...the special offfer for all refurbished laptops is 3-5 day shipping. Just look at the website." More keyboard clicking and then "I am sorry for the inconvienance. I see that you ordered the 5 to 7 day shipping. I see from your order that you will receive the 5 to 7 day shipping." Seeing that I was not going to move beyond this point with the drone on the phone I asked for a supervisor. I was then transferred to the "Complaint Department." Same clicking keyboard, same mindless response.
I'd cancel the order do to Phailed promises of delivery. Refuse the order and keep the reciept and reverse the charges and use your money to get a different system from another company that has better service and is willing to support their product. _________________ Former employee of Dell and can say that they
