I have booked for a Dell laptop on 9th January 2010.When i booked the laptop they made fake promises so as to give me the colours which we want and now they couldnot provide me the colour which i want and for which they send a quote and they force me to buy a new colour which i dont want and now after all process they say my order will get delayed and canot sent it on time . what is this, is this a a MNC or a retail shop.

I have placed an online order for the Dell STUDIO14 laptop on 21st of September 2009 and paid the money (Rs 47358/-) on the same date. I have also got the order confirmation e-mail on the same date. After few days I have been called by the Dell employee saying that the production of that laptop has been stopped and they can not provide me that laptop. So I have canceled my order because I didn't have any other option. After canceling the order I have claimed for the refund and I have been told that I will get the refund within 10-12 days. But got the my money back after more than 3 months that is on 25th of the December 2009 without any interest. I have wasted lot of my money in calling them and asking them about the refund. During those 3 months I also have faced mental harassment, tension and also have wasted lot of my important time. I still have the receipts and proofs for the money that I have paid.
So now I want the interest and also excess money for the problems (mental harassment, tension, wastage of time) that I have faced during those 3 months and also for the money that I have wasted in calling them.

Thanks in advance.

Dell India.

1. Promised delivery in 7 days.
2. Took Money.
3. Stop taking calls and replying to emails.
4. No delivery even after 1 Month. No refund.
5. No response to emails - Customer service takes call, assures service, transfers calls to each other.
6. Outright lying -- i was told once the product is delivered. On another occasion, i was told it on its way, but they are not able to provide a tracking number or way bill number.

People involved:

Main culprit - Rajiv Verma ...His bosses: Clint, Pradeep Ravi.

<[protected]@dell.com>, <[protected]@dell.com>, <[protected]@dell.com>

I pleaded, i begged, i asked for mercy -- these people are horrible, disgusting, liars, cheats and frauds who are there for the numbers without any consideration for the company or its customers. You are suckers.

Hi Team,

I am Amol Ghadigaonkar a Tata employee. I booked Dell laptop from Dell Store at Croma Mulund(Mumbai, Maharashtra) on 01/01/2010.
At the time of inquiery sales person of dell told me about the paisaback offer and he told that i will get min 3% and max about the laptop cost discount. But when i took the laptop he was not having the coupan and he will get it on 2nd. i went the shop two times but it was not available. Now he is telling me that the offer was valid till stock last which was not communicated to me. If this happens i will be in loss of min 1200 and max 40000 which should not happen.

If Tata employee will have a bad experience how can he will advertise croma offers.
Please look into this.

Game: Need for Speed Shift - (an electronic arts game application).

Problem: Enter Key not working during game

Description: After installing this game on my Alienware m15x, i doubleclicked the shift.exe (application) and then the game preview video runs and after the language selection
screen appears where i need to select the regional language.Here i am able to cycle to different languages by hitting LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys and finally when i hit ENTER button in my laptop keyboard to enter a particular language it is not responding.

Steps taken to solve

1. I have tried hitting all buttons on my laptop but the game will continue only when ENTER button is clicked which i was failure for me even though after repeated tries.
2. I switched on the Numpad (fn+numlck) and restarted the game and again there was no luck and the enter key was still not functional.
3. Called up Dell customer care and they made me hold the call for 1 hour and i spoke to different technicians but no one were able to figure out the solutions.
The technicians (deepak and rajan) to whom i lastly spoke with told me that this is not an issue with Alienware and only Game vendor could solve this on his end. But my question is when other people are able to play the same game on m17x and Alienware desktops then why this is happening only m15x laptops. you can see lots of need for speed game videos played on m15x on youtube.com. This issue happens on all electronic arts Games.

Please see this forum link where people have discussed on the same issue and no one yet has got an reply from dell or Alienware.
http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=436150.

Dell customer care has not given good service yet where as the game is played perfectly in other alienware laptop models.

Add me to the list of Dell 1526 Laptop owners whose motherboard died 3 months after the warranty expired. And it was a gift to my neice which makes it all the more painful. From what I've read the battery MAY be the problem, but I am beginning to believe that the battery in these laptops is a poor design and is overheating and damaging (destroying) the motherboard. I would love to see Dell step up and take responsibility for the repairs but I doubt they will. I've read page after page of complaints about this model but to be fair I'm not sure if the performance record of this model is better or worse than any other model. As it stands now - I've just ordered a Dell 1550 for my wife but had I know about the problems the 1526 was having, I would have ordered an HP or Toshiba instead. I doubt it will be worth replacing the battery and/or the motherboard in this unit - you can get a new laptop for just a little more than the cost of the repairs you will need to make on the 1526.

I ordered a Dell Laptop Charger(Adapter) (part no CM 899) on November 4th this year. There i was told on phone by someone called Kartik Pathak that my payment has been confirmed( i made it through the SBI internet gateway successfully) and i will receive it by 10 days. He did not send any reference no. or any quotation or order no. He just sent a mail. After 10 days i called him as the charger had still not arrived. But i was told to wait for a return call that never came. i again called several times( not less than 6 times) to same person as he only gave me his personal no.([protected]) but i got the same response every time.
Now 50 days have passed and i have still not received the same.The following is the details of my payment-

Inter Bank Transfer

I will also forward you some emails with Dell

Kindly help me

I purchased a brand new Dell Laptop and within 15 days its colour started fading from the edges, even there are some black spots formed on the top cover. I wanted to complain but i did not get get time to do so. However in another few months I noticed that the LCD frame has developed a crack.

To me this was very annoying as I have been using my Laptop very delicately. I have written a complaint to Dell but they say that physical damages are not covered under warranty. I have agreed with the same but I dont understand how within just 7 months a crack can be developed. It just shows poor quality of material used by Dell. I have complained but they repeatedly disagreed to accept their mistake.

I have purchase a laptop of DELL and also have paid for an optical mouse but have not got it yet. I complained to my retailer and he suggested me to send a complain e-mail to DELL and give me an e-mail id. I send them an e-mail. But they have not done anything yet now. I also forwarded the same mails to that retailer also but as he can read my messages sent to him, he is not at least reply me. So please do the needful as u can. I am coping and pasting the mails which i sent and received, it is as below:

I have purchased a new dell inspiron 1545 laptop in october last week.
Configuration is as follow:-
3Gb Ram
320Gb Hdd
Intel Cor2Duo Processor 2.2 Ghz

Problem:-
I m not getting sound from my laptop speaker, not even from my headphone. I asked the distributor then he told that dell doesn't offer software warranty.
As i didn't get any drivers CD, i m unable to configure my laptop. Online dell driver download link also doesn't work most of the time.
I m suffering from this problem since i bought this laptop.

Another problem is:-

Whenever i attach laptop charger with this laptop, my screen automatically dims, and when i remove charger it automatically start brightening.
i have seen lot of laptops in which whenever we connects power cable it automatically starts brightening which is totally vice versa with my condition.

i think i got defective piece, i want dell persons to replace my laptop or repair this problem along with my sound problem.
Sound problem is very critical problem as i generally need sound for various kind of presentations.

it want them to do it as soon as possible.

I placed order for Dell batteries around 4 weeks ago. I paid full money. While placing order, they mentioned that batteries are out of stock & will be delivered in 2 or 3 weeks. But it is almost 6 weeks since I placed order, they haven't delivered those batteries yet. Interestingly, they still give standard response "Batteries are out of stock, when we will get, we will delivered them to you". But, they can't provide specific dates. It may take 1 month, may take 1 quarter or may even take 1 year if I am very unlucky!

This is a another typical case of post sale service which is pathetic in our country, India!

My name is Rahul bedi, was working with Dell Mohali from 5th Sep 2005 Employee ID- 864990 till November 22nd 2006 .After i was finished with my exit interview and got my releaving certificate i tried a several times to get in touch with the payroll department for my provident fund which till date i have neither recieved nor any steps are taken from the payroll department.Its more than 3 years now and i have no idea what to do.The worlds most admired company with over million people working worldwide cant handle an employe Provident Fund.I have now left with no option but to go legal and solve it personally.This is my last attemp towards getting my provident fund settled out of court.

Thank You.
