“Wish I had read the online reviews prior to purchase. I am currently receiving quite possibly the worst customer service from Dell UK. A computer system has stopped functioning after three months (under warranty) Almost three weeks after reporting this and following extensive and painful correspondence with the technical service team, the machine is still sitting in a box at my address. Initially I was told that a technician would visit (this didn't happen) I was then sent a box which as yet has not been collected despite daily emails. I have also asked for the formal complaints procedure on three separate occasions, this has been ignored. I am now finding myself having to resort to social media to try to get a resolution.”

“I recently threw the pc I bought from Dell in the trash. All alienware, amd ryzen 9 5900, 38" curved screen monitor, keyboard, mouse. $5500. Now trash. Why? Because it was broken from the moment I got it. Worthless garbage only 8 months old. Now delete my account, thanks.”

“Ordered an item on Monday which was supposed to arrive Friday. Dell never shipped the item and withheld my order for no reason at all. The customer support never responded to my tickets. Been waiting over 2 weeks for my item to be shipped. Customer service refused to tell me anything. Ridiculous company stole my money and never sent me my item”

“I ordered a laptop 1 week ago, but I still haven't received it, it was a 1 day shipment. The rep who i talked to said if I don't receive it before the end of the day yesterday, he will process a refund. As of right now I don't have a confirmation about that. Worst customer service ever!!!! Please stay away from ordering from their website.”

“I have been a loyal Dell customer for years and have several Insperion. My 3 yr old laptop lost its display which should have warned me off but I bought a new one which has had 3 service calls and now, at 8months the motherboard went. It rarely travels and is well cared for so not a damage issue. Set up service, waited all day as confirmed and no show. Dell is no help and gives conflicting information. Have emailed, called and chatted and still have no idea when I might see a tech. They use Unisys, which is a useless company that cannot be reached within 30 minutes on hold - that is when I gave up. My sense after my efforts is that Dell really doesn't care. Time for a change.”

“I should have listen to my family members when they said Dell is horrible. I bought a pc mid Nov. 2021. They sent me the shipping email but UPS said they never got the package. I waited for days and nothing. I contacted them, they had a special contacted me. The specialist could not figure out where it was and move my case to the logistic team. Then days later, he called me at 6:30 am woke me up to tell me they found the pc and will ship it out now. 6 days later! I told them while waiting I had to go out and bought a new pc. He went on how a great deal I got and I agreed but it was "lost" for days and not shipped like they claimed. I asked if they have not shipped out, please cancel as I cannot afford two pc. He said ok and it will not be delivered to me and my refund will be process. Wrong, they lied and shipped to me. After I called him out he said he will have it picked, gave me a date but scheduled a different date. Lied again, no one ever came. I had to filed with the BBB and my cc and they still lied and won't pick up the package. After both cc dispute closed and BBB closed, they had their financial institution sent me a overdue balance and threaten to send me to collection. I called them and got transferred to 3 people in India. The last lady said she will send UPS to pick it up and clear the balance for me. So far, nothing, just more lies. Thankful my pc was on sale and not much but I do fee for so many others who are in worse situation. I should have listen to family and other reviewers online. I am thinking just pay for the trash pc, learn my lesson and cursed them a thousand folds. So save yourself all the pain and suffering of losing money and not getting anything that actually work them DELL!!!”

“Dell advertised free delivery for orders placed before 3 PM CT. I ordered a system at 11:47 CT, but they charged me for delivery and claimed I placed the order at 17:47. Across several emails with support, they insisted I placed the order after the deadline and refused to help. I am now pursuing legal action against them.”

“Ordered a xps in Jan, then I keeps receiving emails telling me the shipment gets delayed, now in March dell tells me my order has been cancelled. Just curious why this company still exists in this world.”

“I ordered a laptop bag on Jan 3 and it still says it's in production. I would understand a bit better if I had bought an electronic, but come on a bag? I have trouble believing they're still making the bag. They haven't even updated my shipping date after being 2 months past the expected delivery date. Why would they be selling bags that haven't even been made yet??”

“I ordered an alienware mouse for my son at Christmas . Dell delayed the shipping and eventually said it’s no longer available ,but they have not refunded me yet. I talked to all the support agents explaining that I wanted a refund before purchasing another one and they said the refund would be released ,but it has now been 3 months since original purchase and still nothing . This company has terrible customer support as well as ethics ! Never will order from them again!”

“Wow where to start?.? I have been in Electronics for over 50 even have an Avionics Engineering degree, owned my owe IT company and have seen good companies go so bad it hurts. I have been a Dell customer since Micron stopped building PC's for a long time now. I have been a preferred customer as well where I usually talked to someone here in the US either TX or TN. But dealing with Dell now just plain sux and that's the nice way of putting it. The XPS Fifteen (the numbers on me keyboard don't work due to it heating up so badly and no I do NOT over clock it. Originally, it was just the one and two keys not working, called they were going to send me a keyboard and a tech to replace it. Never showed. So next the said they were going to send me a replacement I agreed and that never happened. Now it's all be approved but still nothing. Maybe it's because they are built in China now but their service is nonexistent. 39 days and counting no resolve at this point.”

“Bought a Dell laptop in July 2021, a windows update rendered it unusable in November 2021. Returned twice to Dell for repair and the same problem persists. Requested a refund at the beginning of Feb 2022 - still no refund or a working laptop. Don't buy one - not worth the trouble. Terrible customer service.”

“I purchased a Dell Inspiron laptop through their website in Oct 2021. After 6 weeks, the touchpad stopped working in that it become unresponsive and did not appear in the computer's devices. The issue could not be resolved through the troubleshooting suggested by the IT contact. I had to purchase an accessory mouse (from Dell) in order to attempt the troubleshooting. The accessory mouse also stopped working by disconnecting at random. After shutting the computer off for 2 days and then powering it on, did the touchpad function again; but only temporarily. This has been a recurring problem that has not been resolved through IT, troubleshooting, updates, or software installations. Additionally, Dell has refused to repair, replace, or refund the broken computer. After months of tedious communications, a Dell representative wrote this in their latest email: "Kindly understand Dell’s objective is to provide a Reliable and Quality product and services." In the next line, they wrote this: "I would also like to reiterate that system is an electronic item which is prone to failure and cannot be guaranteed for its functionality", contradicting his statement one sentence prior. Dell scammed me by selling me a broken laptop that is not consistent with the product that was advertised. Dell is blatantly deceiving unwitting consumers who are expecting a functional product for what they paid. Additionally, Dell has ignored all request for a comprehensive data report and deletion per federal and state laws. They have been holding my personal information hostage and are distributing it against my consent. The quality of the product (being literal garbage), communications, and refusal to comply with consumer privacy laws is unacceptable and has cost me more than what I initially paid for the broken laptop. I work remotely and rely 100% on my computer, thus I have been unable to work, resulting in a loss of income. Additionally, I had to pay to rent a computer and have now bought a new one (HP), adding to the increasing costs of Dell's failure. Dell is a deceptive and untrustworthy corporation, even their own rep acknowledges their products are unreliable and "prone to failure". Do not become a victim of their scam.”

“I scheduled an appointment for work covered by Dell's warranty last week. They have flaked on me every day so far. The support team chat is nice but they can't do much other than reschedule you for the next day. Only to be flaked on again.”

“I recently got a brand new Dell laptop. Within a couple of months - it started giving problems while starting. Every time I sat for an important meeting it failed to start. I had to have a back up laptop everytime. The dell team claimed to fix this but this problem still arises. Then yesterday- the speakers of my laptop crashed. And stopped working. They now need to replace the speakers. Inspite of multiple requests to replace the laptop as it is only a few months old - DELL refused to do so. What is the point in selling such rubbish pieces and not even agreeing to replace them! Never ever buying dell products ever again!”

“They cancelled my order without sending me an email or anything type of notification. When I called to ask why, I was told it was cancelled due to suspicion of me being a reseller because of my zip code. I live in a city and there are thousands of people with my zip code. I have also never resold any electronic in my life. A complete waste of time that caused unneeded frustration. Don’t bother with them.”

“What a joke of a company! Ordered a G15 gaming laptop for my daughter's birthday because they were offering presidents day sales with one day shipping. It's been a week since I placed my order and no laptop but I have gotten annoying emails everyday telling me the order is delayed. Not only is the email annoying but you have to accept the delay each time or they'll just cancel your order! How do company's stay in business like this? Why even offer the sales if you can't fulfill them!?”

“Got a huge dead pixel on my screen. However, this is no the reason why I gave a one-star review. I wish there is a ZERO Star option. The main reason is the utterly frustrating & humiliating process of getting customer support to request a replacement. Get ready for the long story. First frustration: searching for the right contact details in Singapore (where I bought the product). It took me a while to realise I can only contact the support via WhatsApp , no email and local phone line. This is where the story started. Second frustration: communication in different time zones. The WhatsApp support is based in the USA (CST) when I am in Singapore (SGT). Hence, they can only talk to me via text in my late evening. This is totally out of my expectation as I am expecting a local support, at least in South East Asia region, to assist me. Third frustration: multiple late nights to acknowledge the defect I am facing and create a case which I can’t track, ridiculous isn’t it? I sent my first text on 4th Feb (the day I received the monitor ) asking for support, talked to someone without a name, followed the diagnostic instructions to confirm the defect and sent my invoice to prove my purchase. No response at all until 7th Feb (3 days later) when I asked in WhatsApp for update. Guess what.. This time I am chatting with a human - Chaitanya (not Chatbot , I guess…) and repeated the same diagnostic process , sent a video and result of troubleshooting, and submitted my invoice again….did you guys check the history of the chat ?the next day, 8th Feb, another support -Anita acknowledge the info I sent and promised to get an update to me within 1-2 days. On 9th Feb, this time Chaitanya replied with the exact same questions she/he/it/they asked me on 7th Feb (am I talking to a chatbot?!). With great patience, I answered all over again….this time my case ID was created. As usual, 1-2 days was promised to get back to me. Fourth frustration: multiple failed promises… continued the story from third frustration. On 11th Feb, somehow I found the phone line that I can call and talk to Parveen to request for replacement. As per his instructions,I uploaded the troubleshooting video and photos to the support case portal. I sent him the copy via email as well. Due to my busy schedule, it slipped my mind that I was still waiting for the promise to be fulfilled. On 14th Feb (yes, Happy Valentine’s Day, Dell), this time one of the managers from Dell Social Media team (err?? Can Michael Dell respond to my request next time? that will be perfect!) said she/he/it/they noticed my issue was not resolved yet and asking for my acknowledgment so that they can work toward a resolution. Behaving like a chatbot this time, I sent the detail of my issue (service tag, case number , service request…) to the person.I didn’t even bother to ask for how many days I should expect to get a reply now. This showed how frustrated and helpless I was. Miraculously, I received a call from Dell Technical Support from Malaysia, trying to understand my issue and to create a case. Wait…. Didn’t I just talk to Parveen three days ago …what’s the meaning of the call?! Fifth frustration: Are you really paying attention to your customer, Dell? On 16th Feb, I received an automated message saying that my case was still in progress and please reply to the message so that they can keep me posted….of course I replied with a big ‘YES PLEASE’ . Do I have other options? On 18th Feb, I REACHED MY TIPPING POINT! I received a message saying they haven’t heard from me in the past 24 hours and asking me to write back with details as discussed in previous interactions, so that they can take this further. AND if they do not receive a response from me, they will archive the case.. EXCUSE ME?! This time, I asked for email address from the one, whoever replied to me in WhatsApp , so that I can forwarded my previous interaction. Guess what, now this technical support , be it human or chatbot, asked me to provide pictures of monitor, front and back with (FOR FXXK SAKE) paper with written today date and time along with case number, and photo of service tag sticker with visible details… I only took the photo of service tag because this is what they insist to see..so I did that and additionally confirmed my home address and phone number. On 19th Feb, I received a message saying service request for the monitor replacement with dispatch number is created. I have never felt so helpless, frustrating and humiliating with customer support!!! I only ask for a replacement now, please get it done for me ASAP. AND Please review your customer support process. I appreciate your time and patience reading my review. My apologies for any grammatical mistakes, too sick and tired to edit after typing it out.”
