[Resolved]  HP Compaq — extremely bad after sales service and support.

CA1096394 CA1090381

With reference to the above complaint numbers, my monitor was replaced once and repaired many times. Every time the new parts were not satisfactory and proven to be faulty. The issue has been prolonged for about two months now. The monitor had no issue since begining as it was sparingly used. Now that the monitor was used for needed amount of periods, it started showing problems. Every replaced part was then found faulty and moreover unsatisfactory.


The powerboards have been replaced 4-5 times after which TFT screen was replaced due to a lamp issue. The replaced new TFT screen had patches and showed vertical line defect after prolonged use. With the further request by the service center, another monitor was then sent which was also found with patches and vertical line problem again.

A solution provided by the service team is a new monitor S2021A. This monitor is not acceptable to me since it is compaq, aesthetically and comparatively does not match same standards. If a new monitor is being availed please provide some options so that requirements are met.

Every time a refurbished part was replaced. All the parts were not in acceptable working condition. No further refurbished parts will be accepted. If no new parts are available for this monitor then please provide an acceptable solution.

Your solutions are leaving the customer in misery and no choice.

Such incidences are also not favourable for any future purchases from the company.

Please provide a proper solution.

Note :- When the monitor was being repaired for the first time in may, it had seal in the chasis, but there was no seal behind the TFT panel (this was also indicated to the service person ). ALong with that there were overlapsing serial no. stickers. This certainly proves that when the monitor was purchased new it was already installed with a non - new part(TFT screen). This has already put a bad impression on the company.

HP After sales . — Horrible after sales service

I am using HP’s Pavillion 5000 notebook from the past two years. Since the battery was not providing a good backup, I decided to replace the old battery.
I approached one of HP’s authorized service centres at Ernakulam in Kerala. The name and address of the centre are as follows:
Nortech Infonet Pvtltd,
Nortech House, Arakkakadavu road,
Edapally road, cochin-682024
When I bought the laptop, I asked them to provide the warranty card of the newly replaced battery. Since I am working in Calicut, they told me that it would be couriered to me shortly.
A week has gone and I have received only the retail invoice of the material purchased from their shop. When contacted, they refused to provide me the warranty card of the battery purchased from their centre. Instead, they used contemptuous words against me and asked me not to disturb them for the warranty card.
The retail invoice Number is: INV-2/30001325
Invoice Date: 25/09/08
Order date: 20/09/08
Price mentioned : Rs5982/only

Customer getting a bad service as well as being abused by the company to whom the customer is giving business is a shame on a company like HP.
So, I request you to kindly send to me the said papers.
If the warranty papers of the battery are not sent to me in a week’s time, then I will not hesitate to move to court against HP and its service centre.A wrist watch bought for a mere Rs700 will have its warranty papers along with it .

HP Compaq — Horrible after sales service.

My Compaq Presario V3749AU was given to the HP service centre in Pune (Simtech Computronics (P) Ltd. ) on 18/12/2008. The problem being that on switching the power button on, there was no display or any activity from the hard disk. Even after repeatedly contacting the service centre, there has not been any specific answer from their side. And its a month now. And whenever I have called, all I was told is that they had ordered the part and received the wrong part. This has happened twice. On once occasion I was told the part has been dispatched from Delhi and they are waiting to receive it. there is a shortage of spares. On once occasion they said there is a shortage of spares all over the country which was supposed to be solved be last week end (10/01/2009). But yet there was no response till today when I called them again. Even now I hav not been given any specific information as to till when the laptop will be repaired.
I bought a compaq presario computer from Ankamaly within one year, I got about ten times. Every time they come and repair. Now it is totally dead yet wihin the warranty period. Whenever I contact the customer care people, they do not respond. The addresses given are not working. Now if they do this within the warranty period, what about after the warranty expires?

HP Customer Service,

I am mostly a happy go lucky honest person and I believe when I ask for help I will get it. Not with HP outsourced customer service. I had my adapter/power chord go out 6 months ago, it was replaced at that time under warranty. I have been told that they should last 2 years. I felt that due to them sending me a faulty adapter/power chord 6 months ago they should replace it for free even though my warranty has run out.

Seven transfers later, repeating my name, spelling it, SN number, case number address, phone number each time I received no help. I was stonewalled. I asked to speak to a manager and I was transferred. I asked to speak to an American and I was transferred. I know that the people who work for HP customer service do not get paid enough to deal with my anger, but I was not being helped in the least just transferred. Each time I would ask for their name, the spelling, who is their manager that I can actually get help from and they would tell me in broken English they are not allowed to disclose this kind of information. I was on the phone for 1 hour and 15 minutes with no resolve. I surrendered. I knew I was not going to be helped so why waste my emotional energy and time on trying. The outsourcing of America has got to stop. We deserve the kind of customer service where we feel someone truly wants to help us.

I am buying a MAC next time.
