Product unfit for sale + atrocious customer service We bought a Dell laptop off the Dell website. First day, the screen suddenly locked up for over half an hour (I'd originally suspected windows update as the cause, but I now suspect the laptop). 2nd day it died, while quietly sitting there powered on. I'd spent hours loading Firefox, Chrome, Office, with all settings, passwords, etc. I am now forced by Dell's incompetent response to waste more time changing every password on the dead Dell computer. Dell customer service diagnosed their motherboard was faulty and needed replacement. Their only offer was an old, used, reconditioned motherboard as replacement. I said I obviously needed a new motherboard as the laptop was only 2 days old and was a faulty product. They said no new motherboards were in stock, and new ones would take weeks/months to be shipped in from overseas. I needed it working immediately. Dell was still selling exactly this model online marked as "now in stock", so I suggested a swap - this faulty new laptop for an identical replacement from stock. Dell said they couldn't do this. They could give no coherent reason why not, just company policy. Company policy, it seems, is to actively enrage paying customers. Insisting on being passed up the line to supervisors resulted in worse and even more incoherent nonsense. The best they could offer was a possible refund 5 days after receiving the faulty laptop back, maybe. We had already ordered a second identical laptop from Dell which was due to arrive tomorrow. As a result of the atrocious customer service we cancelled that order as well and asked for a refund. I heard not a single apology, regret, or even surprise from any Dell "customer service" staff for their faulty goods, unfit for sale. Nor any empathy for the extreme inconvenience and time wastage caused. Never ever to touch Dell again!!!
