[Resolved]  Dell — Laptop Battery

Hello Friends,

One of my friend has nice Laptop of Famous Company “DELL”. DELL is very famous in Desktop Computer & Laptops. One of my friend having very BAD and Unacceptable response from Senior Manager of DELL, Read His Problem with DELL, and Arguments of DELL, Than share your reviews in COMMENT.

Hi,

I am one of your valuable customers. I have purchased a laptop from you company Model inspirion 1525 on Date: 28th march 2008. The same is in the warranty period which gets expired at the end of this month. I am facing a problem with my Battery of the Laptop. My laptop is not working on the Battery Mode. For the same I tried to call the Toll Free number provided for N number of times. They told me to take a screen shot of the BIOS setup. First of all I don’t understand how we can take a screen shot from BIOS. Now after a long argument for more then 10 days I got the news that ‘ Battery has ended on usability life’ and the same is not covered under warranty period. I don’t understand how the battery can end usability life even though it is in warranty. What I understand is the quality of the battery used is not up to the mark, and if this is not the case I should have been informed well in advance about the same which I was not. I am not able to use my laptop without Battery .

So, please take some action on the same and suggest me a solution for the same. Hope that I would get a response for this.

I got a call from dell +[protected] at 4.15 on 19th March 2009 from one of your senior managers and he told me that it is mentioned on the dell site that we do not provide any warranty for battery near to one year. Now I don’t get what is your definition for the word Near. I did not expect such open ended and most irresponsible answer from a person who is holding a post of Sr. Manager in your company. I had very high expectations from DELL and I hope I can maintain the same in future.

I am still in the same Stage and my Issue is not solved.

Your valued customer

As per the comments logged by all the sufferred customers this seems a very known and common problem that the Dell laptop batteris are fraudulent and the Comapany (DELL) is cheating on their customers. I am among the suffered one, the strange thing here is, exactly after onew year or warranty (for Laptop) the battery is going dead. it has happened with almost everyone.

Some tough action must be taken against it. If not directly suing DELL then at least a best weapon is Mouth Publicity, like earlier I was suggesting people to go for DELL but after this experience, I would strongly oppose and suggest for any other better option but not DELL if they are not listening.

And I know at least in India it works better than anything, lets bring DELL's market down.

Let them suffer the way they did to us.
